BY ED STEEVES.
Coach Ed Wier's freshman foot
ballers, who are this year heavier
than a bride's biscuits, have for
the first time In a decade many
satellites on the squad. It is sel
dom that the university reaps
more than four or five blue rib
bon specimen from the high school
crop.
This annus some eight or ten
men were delivered to Husker-
land's Weir a la much publicity,
and don't think those eight or ten
aren't taking a beating. We have
in mind notably Vike Francis,
famed by his brother Sam plus bis
own all state record; Bus Knignt
thrice repeater in the all state an
nals from Jackson high; Harry
Hopp, Hastings flash; Edsel Wib
bels, burly back from the fields of
Wolhach, Neb., and others. All
of this bunch sit astride an im
movable foundation of fame, bir
such a foundation is a handicap
for fair.

for practice.
Fans Make It Tough
The above is the type of thing
that these prematurely made all
Americans must contend with.
In their behalf, the shucks col
umn would like to go to bat. Vike
for example, is a playful, plenty
fun loving boy, who is good and
confident of himself, but also
plenty self conscious. He is aware
of his situation, but he wants to
make good all on his own. This
corner happens to know thru the
keyhole path that the Vike almost
went to another school so that he
could hack his own trail thru the
athletic woods. No one needs to
worry about the young Francis,
for he was all state in both Ne
braska and Colorado, but the ad

Jones Makes Stadium Airtight.
When the Biffer orders out a
closed practice, we now know that
he means just that. The stadium
is the tightest thing we ever saw
besides a' Saturday night inne
briate. There used to be a way
to get around all of little Colonel
Bible's padlocked sessions. The
fan could simply slip in and watch
from the glass doors in the end
of the stadium, overlooking the
practice field. Jones, however,
has hoarded up those said win
dows. He keeps the doors to both
dressing rooms patrolled by stu
dent managers. He has plugged
all the more conspicuous knot
holes and even hired a copper,
blue serge and everything, to
drive out all those who leak in
through pther channels.
Mystery Shrouds Scoreboard.
Two stadium improvements are
going on at this time behind
those sealed portals. The enlarged
press box is now being adorned
with an iron fence around the
roof, giving the structure that
penthouse effect. From the in
terior of the said railings the
pressmen may sit on warm days
Coach Weir Hints Possible
Changes in Line-Up
Before Saturday.
With the varsity-freshman game
only four days away, the starting
lineup for the freshmen began to
take shape yesterday. Coach Ed
Weir stated that altho the fight
for berths on the first eleven is
practically settled, several changes
may be made before the opening
kickoff next Saturday.
John Capron, Lincoln, and Le
land Yant, Wauneta, who were
holding down the guard positions
last week have been replaced by
Everett Lomax, Wilsonville, and
Leonard Muskin, Omaha. Capron
and Yant, however, arc still very
much in the running.
220 Pound Tackle.
The freshmen squad's weightiest
member, Leonard Gauger, 220
pound Wauneta lad, played second
string ball last night with Edgar
Thompson. Wisner, taking his
tackle spot.
In the ball toting department,
positions are pretty well set. Bus
Knight, Lincoln, is doing a very
definite job of holding down one
halfback spot while the other is
tottering between John Newton.
Imperial, and La Roy Farmer. Lin
coln. E".dsel Wibbels, Wolhach, is
playing fullback and Harry Hopp,
Hastings, is holding the quarter
back position. It is expected that
Bus Knight will get the call when
it romes to naming the boy who
will direct the team.
