Marv's leg has been responding slowly to treatments. Mcllravy Returns. Cheer covered the faces of Corn husker gridsters yesterday when they learned that Kldon Mcllravy. injured in the Gopher game Oct. 2, had returned home from hos-, pital. fully recuperated from a : brain concussion. Altho he will no longer carry Scarlet and Cream colors in grid wars this season, fullback Mcllravy will sit on the bench and view his colleagues ' tangle with Indiana. Offense, that phase of gridology j hioh is Indiana's forte, stood out on the Jonesmen s schedule like a sor thumb. Hearing that Bo Mc-: Milin's lads had completed 21 out ' of 44 passes for 257 yards, the N'ebraskans devoted a full hour to ' pegging aerial heaves, many of which found receivers. i Since the Hoosiers are famed ( for their guile in the way of odd ! line formations, quick kicks, and unexpected snapbacks. Line Coach j Roy Lyman instructed his forward i wall to be on the watch for this ! trickery. Fast snapbacks. for the ! purpose of drawing opponents off-! side, were especially accentuated.

It was here that Saturday's adversaries made the statement, "We'll take Nebraska for you." That asser tion has been converted to a slo gan to be carried to Lincoln. Vernon Huffman Lost. Like all coaches. Bo MiMillin is using the crying towel before each game. He sheds most tears when irminiscir.g of Vernon Huff man, quarterback lost last June by graduation. It was he who roamed the greensward here last fall and flipped a tou.hdown puss In-fore the Huskers leashed him. In his stead is Corby Davis, a fullback hooked for All-American laurel.

Since both elevens believe in dot ting the sky with passes, fans watching the classic Saturday should see a wide-open game com parable to that played in the Southwest conference.
