Two weeks ago we chose the Huskers winner by 21 points and the Jones boys won by 14; this was our closest deal. Last week our con viction was Nebraska 13-0 over Oklahoma and the Sooners tied us 0-0. So today vc tell you the method of our success. Now take this Missouri-Nebras-! ka tangle that conies up tomorrow .it Columbia. How will that come out, we say to ourselves. Now most people run out and buy up ' all the latest grid magazines to j look up gridiron records of the ; two teams and their prospects. Or they traverse the vicinity of the sports minded people for common opinion or sometimes they cheat by asking the respective coaches about the game. Was Original System. Eut now take us, do we do these things? No! We line the two elevens up side by side. We look at them. Which one has the prettiest colored jers eys, we 3ay? Well, led, on the whole, is the best hue, so the Huskers usually get our vote. We used to use the eenie meenie tninie moe system, till we forgot the cadence and then we stooped to a simpler method. Sometimes we add up all the jersey numbers of the first strings of both sides and then divide by four. When the two results are obtained, we pick the home team. Bengals Due for Slaughter. Other predicting strategy comes by running to the nearest caking house and counting the cigarette butts in the booth ash tray. Thi.s determines the score. Then we have one of our companions think i with his fine of a letter of the alphabet. If the s h owing in letter he names comes closer to I punting and "Nebraska." then we take the 1 play selection, other team, or versa visa.

And unless the Townsend pension checks come thru this week, the Huskers should win some 20-0 over the Mizzou Tigers. That's our story and wcre stuck on it.

Bell in Columbia With the Huskers and their fol lowers tonight will go the Nebraska-Missouri victory bell whose possession Nebraska will risk on the gridiron Saturday. The bell, almo.'t as traditional ns the game itself, has a, long and interesting history. It first ap peared in 1S98 when the Phi Delts and Delts. living together at the time, took it from a Negro church near Seward. The Phi Dells claimed possession of It. and in the ensuing years the two frater nities fought for its possession so hotly that in 192" the nnivisity lnte"ccded. Rivalry Bell Recast.

Altho last wtek's net total of 34 right, 7 ties, and P completely wrong was nearly as good as the previous week's results, we're still moaning about picking 4 out of 5 "specials" wrong, among which Nebraska and Oklahoma figured prominently.

However, Mizzou's hospital list has shrunk visibly as Ne braska's has increased, and with the advantage of playing at home the mule boys should play their best game to date.
