THE DAILY NEBRASKAN. FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 12. 1937 PACE THREE 1 A Husliers Make Eighth Try of Year to Topple Pitt Rain Threatens Saturday Battle in Pan th er Bo wl Jonesmen Stop in Chicago for Pre-Game Workout on Soldier's Field. Can the Huskers muzzle the fe rocious Pitt Panthers? This question, confronting the 'grid frot the past week, will be answered tomorrow at Pittsburgh as Coach Biff Jones' umle feated but twice tied Corn huskor e 1 even c. 1 a s hos with Dr. S u t her ln nd's unbeaten but once stale mated Pitt out fit. A rain predic tion for the game has failed to deter fans f r om witness- inrr IVlia nlaacip as some 71,000 MARVIN PLOCK tickets have state Journal, been sold and more than 25,000 ex tra requests for ducats have been turned down. This will be the lar gest throng that the Huskers have ever performed before, the pre vious mark being; 52,000 when N. U. niet Minnesota last year at Mine apolis. Thirty-four strong, the squad will put Into the Smoky City early this morning. Until game time it will reside at the Shady Side acad emy. KFAB Carries Game. Reggie Martin, of the KFAB staff will give a play by play de scription of the game, begin ning at 12:45 p. m., Lincoln time. Seven eastern stations will also air the game labeled as the classic of the week. Coach Jock Sutherland an nounced yester day that it is highly problem atical whether Bill D a d d 1 o, end, and Har old Stebbins, a r f ' 1 BILL PFEIFF Fnm State Journal. halfback, would he ready for play tomorrow. Both Daddio and bteb bins played here last year as the Panthers set back the Scarlet and Cream, 19-6, and Pitt will miss their services greatly. A sports commentator of wide reput, C.us Dorins, grid coach at Detroit U., picks Pittsburgh to hand the Huskers their first '37 de feat. It was the same seer who foresaw Nebraska downfalls to Minnesota and Indiana, but the Huskers turned the tables on him both times and came In with glori ous victories. Figures Favor Pitt. Statistics favor the hosts as they have marked up 152 scores In seven games to Nebraska's 61 in five tilts. Both forward walls are equal In ability, which may mean that there will be plenty of play in the air. Pittsburgh has a weight advan tage of seven pounds per man as It has no "watch charm" players of the stature of Nebraska's Bob Mohrlng and Marvin Tlock. A last minute change will find Bill Pfciff starting at guard In place of Low ell English. The probable lineups: Nelrli 1'ltt.horih Anirn, K It.

The staccatoed tubing sounds of punted footballs echoed from the vast Soldier's Field here this afternoon when Nebraska's Huskers went thru their light workout. Passes flipped thru the air made this Chicago stadium appear as If Husker artillery was In full power. A small crowd of Ne braska alumni and interested spectators watched the impres sive workout. Our Huskers, 35 strong, were cheerful and happy as they travelled around the Windy City this morning on a sight seeing tour. Only Major "Biff" Jones wore that serene and thoughtful look as he sent the boys thru their paces. At noon, here In the Palmer House, the entire squad were hosts of the Nebraska alumni of Chicago. The entire team was Introduced to the crowd of alumni present. Rest at Shady Side. Following their workout this afternoon, the squad will again dine at the Palmer House, at tend a show and prepare to em bark to the Smoky City of Pittsburgh about 9:30 o'clock. Arriving in Pittsburgh at 9:52 o'clock Friday morning, the squad will journey to Shady Side Academy by bus where the members will lunch, practice, dine, see a movie and retire early. After breakfast and lunch at Shady Side Saturday, the squad will travel Into Pitt Stadium by buses where the climax of the whole trip takes place. Follow ing the game the squad will go to the William Penn hotel for dinner, attend a show and leave the Smoky City at midnight Saturday. Arriving in Chicago, the squad will stop at the Palmer House again for breakfast and lunch after which the Chicago Bears-Brooklyn Dodgers foot ball game will be watched at Wrigley field. The train will leave Chicago at 6:15 o'clock Sunday evening and will arrive in Lincoln at 8:50 o'clock Mon day morning.

Gills' sports have been clicking fast and furious, this past week with the return of warm weather to N. U. campus. Almost every day finds a group of femme equestriennes, members of the W. A. A. Honeback Riding club, trotting their mounts about Pioneers park. A few riders who are forsaking their studies for les sons in horse sense are Marie Ka touc, Lorraine Grant and Ruth Fulton. B'or more conservative aspirants the Archery club Is proving popu lar. This year so many girls signed up for team participation that Barbara Marston, head of the dub, has limited the membership to those that have had Instruction. Later on the sharpshooters will get a real chance at tournament piny when they meet teams from York and Columbia. Holding the limelight in sorority and bul b team circles now is Ne braska hall. Little time was lost In launching this tournament after the completion of soccer baseball. As you probably know, Raymond hall boarders walked away with the soccer plaque, spurred on by Betty Clements and Jane Rawley. The D. G.'s, who had squelched the Trl Pelts by a single tally the day before, were the other final Ists. A Chi O team advanced the barbs to the finals and by loing so, lost the first place award which they had copped In last year's tournament. Only the first bracket hns been completed In the Nebraska bull tourney. Surviving sorority teams are the Thetas, Delta Gamma Alpha Chi O's. Phi Mus, Chi Os and Gamma Phis, all who won by participation. Drawing byes In the first round were Alpha O, TH Delt, Sigma Kappa, Kappa, Delta Don't get the Idea that this is some "overset" from the recent Prairie Schooner edition o the Nebraskan. This Is, however, the long awaited column of grid pre dictions in verse that bears a trace of rime. If John Lardner can get away with it, this department fig ured it could put to use some of the poetic license that ran ram pant in Doc Wimberly's English 22 course. You might experience a little trouble in discovering which way the predictions go, as it was neces sary to bring In team nicknames In order to get some degree of rime Mebee the Bhadow of doubt that hangs over these prognostications will shove up the departmental average.

By the time our eyes had bleared and we had filled half a ream of paper with notorious Husker center's names, we decided the game was much too simple. We then decided that all men making our list of colos sal centers would have to pass a prerequisite of All American rat ing. Lawrence Ely Starred. Even this made a formidable list. In the last seven years, only one of those have the Cornhuskers been without a snapper back, recognized by the official All America board. The thing hns been more or less an epidemic. Lawrence Ely was the first to come down with the malady, back in 1930. In that year he was only a sophomore, but was one of the Huskers' stars and was mentioned by the national press as being one of the outstanding defensive men of the nation. Hailing from Grand Island, Ely played two more years under the scarlet banner. During the first of these he increased his stride and made honorable men tion on several All American se lections. In his senior year he went the limit, playing in the East-West game, making the all conference eleven, and making the All Amer ican eleven proper. Franklin Meier Next. During the dark haired Ely's senior year of triumphs, there was an understudy on the bench by the name of Franklin Meier. Following the Third City boy's graduation, i n 1 9 33, Meter blossomed Into the same out standing type of player as his predecessor ex cept he starred on offense, where Ely had shined on de fense. This was his Junior year.

He feels that the women are coming more and more to work side by side with the men, as equals. They do "and should" hold Jobs, and spend their time with worthwhile things, instead of being forced into made recreation such as bridge. But women will never be over men in nominal rule, partly because "the ego of men won't allow it." "Then too, women prefer to rule as they do now, indirectly, and let the men get all the blame." All America. Meier caine from Lincoln. Charles Brock Follows. Now we have the one and only Columbus flash, Charlie Block. Standing better than six feet and weighing 200, Brock is the terror of the plains and the fear of all his oppo nents. Let it be no reflection on him, but two of h i s opponents have been car ried from the field this year. In 1936 Brock was picked as all Blx Six cen ter and re ceived favor able comment by the national press.

Ed Weir was a two year man at tackle. History Reveals Others. In the dim past Nebraska has ninny other bespangled centers, but the mythical honor teams in those days were so different from those today, it is a bit hard for a modern writer to merit their attainments in comparison to present gridders. Ted James, 1927; Joe Wastopel, 1925; and Harold Hutchinson, 1924, were a few of the satellites who upheld the honor of the Husker center tradition, or rather who helped give it impetus. And don't overlook Bob Ramey, Brock's understudy and second best man in the loop. B. H.

Saturday is the day of days, so far as Ncbraskans are con cerned, for that's the day their lambs (?) are to be led to their slaughter at the hands of Pitt's terrible Panthers so most people think. However, the Huskers weren't supposed to come out of the Minnesota and Indiana en gagements alive, but turned in a surprise in each instance. We Just have a hunch that the nation is in for one more surprise tomor row. They're starting those super human tales about Pitt and that seems to be the downfall of every team witness the sad fate of Minnesota, Baylor, California, and a few more. So with probably much more loyalty than good sense Nebraska wiil edge out the Panthers by one touchdown. (Won't we look hot If the score is 27-0. or something of that sort, for Pitt?) Sooners Over Tigers. In the Big Six Oklahoma's tough Sooners should whip the crippled Missouri Tigers. Iowa State looks a little better than Marquette, and Kansas State will overthrow K.
