KANSAS HOPES STAND
ON RABBITS'
FEET
The rabbit foot market of Kan
sas is bombing!
Dusty State citizens talk fast
and furiously to themselves during
these late days trying to convince
themselves that they will take the
Huskers Saturday. But when they
run out of conversation to them
selves they have to lean on a pac
liier. That's where the fabbit's
ff-ot come in.
They take these hare hoppers
fid stroke them, believing Till the
n'.e that the cuddling of these
Amputated members will bring
t:jem victory. But why shouldn't
they cling to something as non
sensical as rabbit's feet: what bet
ter could they cling to?
Kansans figure the situation
this way. If the Huskers were tied
by the Sooncrs, 0-0, and the Jays
defeuted the Oklahomans 14-6.
even though it was a last five sec
fluke, then they should win tomor
row. They also figure that because
thy've kept up their morale and
have treated the word jinx like
leprosy, that it shouldn't figure
Saturday.
Then later they stop and think.
Nebraska has toppled Minnesota.
Indiana, Iowa State and Missouri.
We let this stand by itself and of
fer no comment. The Jays have a
crippled lineup, and the Huskers,
Intact.
The Jay coaching staff intends
to lean on an improved passing
attack, if anything, for they have
read about the big bad wolf, bet
ter known as the Nebraska line.
Biffer's men are calm and con
ffdent as the game approaches.
Having hit the score prediction
of every home game within 40
points and 2 ax handles, we predict
with confidence a 7 point Husker
win tomorrow. Oh, we know that
this- sounds inconsistent with what
the pillar has said before, but you
must also remember that the
Huskers are a bunch of conserva
tives and feel that they don't look
well in big numbers. They aren't
6elfish, all they want is more tal
lies than their foes.

Major Jones May Be Forced
to Abandon Substitute
Lineup Plan.
Coach Lawrence "Biff Jones
put his Nebraska cornhuskers
through a light workout centered
around pass defense and offense
yesterday to round out a week's
preparation for
the Homeconv
ing Day battle
with the Jay
hawks of Kan
sas University
tomorrow.
The Huskers
will take a light
signal workout
tonight as their
final drill be
fore the Satur
day's game
generally recog
nized as the
crucial contest
in the Big Six
conference this
from Lincoln Journal, year.
After a couple of early week
practices which were toned down
by the absence of several regulars,
the Husker's morale was boosted a
couple of notches Thursday and
Friday as Lowell English, Marv
Plock. Elmer Dohrmann and Lloyd
Grimm returned to practice ses
sions. Plock donned his togs Tues
day night after nearly a week's
absence from the gridiron. Lowell
English was in pass scrimmage
last night in full attire while Dohr
mann and Grimm worked out In
sweatsuits which they have been
wearing all this week.
The first varsity lineup last
night was Amen and Grimm, ends;
Shirey and Doyle, tackles; Meh
ring and English guards: Brock,
center: Howell, quarterback; Dodd
and Andrews, halfbacks; and
Callihan fullback.
Only one change was indicated
in this lineup yesterday, Elmer
Dohrmann is slated to 6tart the
game against the Jayhawks in
place of Grimm at end.
Due to a lengthy casualty list,
although none of the injuries are
i serious. Poarh Biif Jones Will
extensively against the confer'
ence-leading Kansans. With the
Pittsbugh game coming up next
week-end, the Biffer will be
anxious to keep his first team
strength on the sidelines as much
as possible.
The Major may be thwarted in
his attempt to keep regulars on
the bench, for the Jayhawks, de
spite their spotty record, will be
a touch opponent and have been
pointing for the Huskers strongly.
Hopes for a perfect starting line
up dropped at Kansas university
early this week when it was
learned that Dick Amerine, soph
November's opening football
Saturday finds only seven teams
undefeated and untied that com
mand attention beyond the limited
area of their own cheering sec
tions. They are, reading from
left to right and from Berkeley,
Calif., to Easton. Pa.: California,
Santa Clara, Colorado, Montana,
Baylor, Alabama and Lafayette.
That's quite a sweep of the na
tion to find only seven teams with
perfect records." This column looks
for the list to be narrowed down
to five as Montana and Lafayette
aren't expected to clear Gonzaga
and Rutgers respectively. The re
mainder will come thru with vic
tories. Here's this column's predictions
for tomorrow:

Sigma Nu and Sigma Phi Epsilon
touch footballers battled vainly for
three and one-half periods and
then in one lightning thrust the
Sigma Nu's worked the ball up to
the Sig Ep one yard line, and on
the next play pushed the ball
across for the touchdown that gave
them the tilt by a score of 6-2 in
the finals of the initial intramural
sport played on Russian flats yes
terday. Alpha Tau Omega won the
hole position with a smashing 14
to 0 win over Sigma Alpha Epsi
lon. It was midway in the final
period that the Sigma Nu's got
the break that gave them the
game. Up until that time neither
team had seriously threatened the
scoring zones. Then with the ball
in possession of the winners in
mid-field came the turning point.
George "Bus' Knight, stellar uni
versity frosh footballer, faded
back to heave a long pass to Harry
Pitcaithley who had sped down
the sidelines toward the Sig Ep
end zone. Knight's heave was good
for 50 yards into the end zone,
but the receiver had encountered a
little difficulty on the play. The
Sig Ep defense in a desperate at
tempt to avert the score had inter
fered with the progress of Pit
caithley and officials Cliff Scott
and Rollie Horney ruled the pass
complete.
The handicap was too great to
overcome. Sigma Nu was awarded
the ball on the Sig Ep one yard
line. On the next play Knight again
faded back and flipped the ball to
Ev Deger who took the ball in the
end zone for the winning tally.
Marshall's try for the extra point
was short. j
With the period drawing to a :
close the Sig Eps penetrated deep
into Sigma Nu territory, but a
score was averted as Pitcaithley j
intercepted a pass in the end zone i
and was tagged for a safety. '
Outside of the scoring plays the
offense of both teams was glar
ingly weak. Interceptions were !
fre-quent and completions for sub-'
stantial gains were rare. Defenses
were exceptionally strong. Per
haps the outstanding playing of!
the game was clone by the Sigma -Nu
blockerg. They staved off the
rushing of 'the .Sig Ep ends and j
gave both Townley and Knight j
plenty of time to handle the bull )
offensively. But with the Sig Ep
offense working to near perfection i
this was to little avail. There
simply were no receiver.. The Si?
Eps were woefully weak in the t
protection of their passer.
These stout defenses meant just
one thing, the team that got the
break and cashed in on it would
win. The Sikma Nu's du. just that :
