THE DAILY NRRKASKW. tTKSDW. NOVEMBER 16. 1937
Ill SKERS 'ROSE"
TO HEIGHTS
THIS WEEK.
Ho who laughs last laughs
laughs ( or what ever that ditty
is. Many have flung the state
ment in our lace that the Huskers
couldn't posibly wind up in the
money this week after their trim
ming back east Saturday.
Yesterday we learned that the
officialratlng placed Nebraska
rot 11th, but 6th this week- All
of which goes to show that our
l ids of the Scarlet should not let
fielr hair down, but should feel
that they d(d themselves proud
against Tin. To say that Ne
braska ti a mere 6th means little,
except that there are S teams over
them; but to say that they a.e
this week in direct line for the
Rose Bowl, makes our emotion
fct, not pity Pitt, but pittv pat.
We aren't savin' that it will be,
but we are saving that the Husk
ers are mighty apt to sneak up on
that Flower Field without know
ing it.
The standings this week Include:
1 Pitt. 6 Nebraska
2 California 7 Minnesota
3 Fordham 8 Indiana
4 Alabama 9 Santa Clara
5 Yale 10 Colorado
Making thorn run the gauntlet
of scrutinization we find that only
one of those leading five will be j
In line for the Rose Bowl fracas i :
and that one is Yale. Pitt is nearlv
definitely out, even though they :
are undisputedly the nation's i
champs this year. They have worn !
out their welcome in California
and the cash customers want to
see someone new. The same goes
for Alabama and Fordham. though
there is a slight possibility that the
latter might accept. California
doesn't have a chance.
This leaves It up to Yale and
Nebraska. Two of the leading
dailies out in the state where
rain is dew (California) have
been persistently nodding at the
state where rain is due (Nebras
ka for the Posey honors. They
believe that the Huskers have i
something flashy in football
which p iple out their way have
n't teen. By flashy, we don't
know whether they mean that
our gridders of the plains play on
the backs of cow ponies or not.
However, Californians do seem
to consider Nebraska as some
thing novel in griddlng.
Yale, sticking in the top bracket,
makes things a little more difficult,
for she has a mighty potent name.
She is an old school, venerated
with football tradition.
However, as has been suggested,
the Huskers at least have chance
at the Sugar Bowl, for they have
a mighty sweet team.
Schimmel Watches Celebration.
A. Q. Schimmel, owner and
watch dog of the Cornhusker
hotel here in Lincoln, had a field
day laughing at the Saturday cele
bration in Pittsburgh, for he knew
they couldn't touch a single insti
tution under Schimmel manage
ment. Having nearly $1,000 dam
age done to his place following the
Minnesota game, it was somewhat
to Abe's glee to see the populace
devastate Hotel William Tenn in
Pitt. The mad mob ransacked
the lobby, from which all the fur
niture had been previously re
moved. Three Huskers Named.
From the lengthy list of All
American nominees, Nebraska
had three sons. They were Elmer
Dohrmann at end, Fred Shirey
at tackle, and Charlie Brock at
center.
Pittsburgh had nearly a full
team of possibilities named, in
cluding three ends.
Huskers Lead Big Ten.
With two victories in the Big
Ten conference, Nebraska stands
as nfar the head of the statistics
of that lop as any of its members
If the Huskers should take the
Hawkeyes this Saturday, as the
dope sheet says they will, they
. vill be undefeated in three starts
No member team usually competes
lit any more conference games
than this. In the east it is prophe
sied that the Jonesmen will be Big
Ten member In not one, but two
years.
SHOELESS 'CUB'
SCRIBE WATCHES
HUSKER MERMEN
By Buck Powell.
Shoeless, and with coid feet,
one of the new sports cubs took
look at the varsity splashers
yesterday and found' that Pete
Hagelin the senior tankster, who
acts as coach, is looking for a
man. And what is more he really
wants to find him.
That man Is Jack Barry, the
asy going chap that holds a
couple of coveted Eig Six titles. It
looks as if Coach Hagelin would
like to insure the chances of a re
peat on said titles.
Lettermen Shaping Up.
With the exception of Barry, all
the other eligible senior lettermen
are shaping into a well-rounded
squad that would satisfy most any
coach at this point o early In the
season.
Senior lettermen who have re
turned, include Dick Leask, the
flashy diving artist, Ludwig, Ful
lerton, and Hagelin. Supplement
ing these boys are Jack Redick.
Fletcher Spicer, and Jack Davis
representing the cream of the
ophomores.
Fred 'Shanghai' Fairman, the
boy from the Far East, and Harry
Eyck are working diligently and
Indications point to good material
here for future use, as these bovs
are new additions from freshman
ranks.

It was a glum yet jubilant squad
of doughty Cornhusker gridmen
who returned Monday from Pitts- j
burgh, where they dropped their ;
first tilt oi the season to the pow-1
e r f u 1 P i 1 1 J
Tanthers. 13-7.
The thought
of losing a
game after
leading for
more than 45
minutes showed
its effects on
the squad as it
went thru its
practice in
preparation for
the game with
Iowa Saturday
a t Memorial

perched atop the Big Six standings
as Kansas, leader the past three
weeks, was shunted aside 7-0 by an
inspired Kansas State Crew. Should
the Huskers defeat their next ad
versary. Kansas State Nov- 27 at
Manhattan, they would have sole
ownership of the diadem.
Big Injury List.
A heavy Injury toll was paid by
the Jonesmen in their heart-rending
conflict with Dr. Sutherland's
burly Panthers. Lloyd Grimm, end,
and Lowell English, guard, are in
the infirmary suffering from a
pulled leg muscle and abdominal
trouble, reflectively.
Swathed in bandages was the
pegging hand of Johnny. Howell
while Charley Brock, center, was
carrying bis right hand in splint
ers. However, this duo is expected
to be ready for the Hawkeye game
Saturday. Jack Dodd, Harris An
drews, Fred Shirey and Bill Calli
han received minor hurts last week
but khould be ready for play this
week as they all partook of yes
terday's workout.
Wintry blasts swept across Me
morial stadium yesterday, and the
squad took a 20-mlnute rehearsal
on pass offense and then scurried
to wanner environment under the
east stadium. Methods of combat
ing Iowa plays were explained by
Coach Browne as the varsity
played the role of onlookers.
Iowa Outplay Indiana.
Returning from Iowa City where
he mapped the Iowa-Indiana bat
tle, Scout Adolph Lewandowslcl,
told the team that the Iowans are
to be feared since they outplayed
Coach Bo McMillln'e Hoosiers. It
took a field goal by Indiana to de
feat the victory-starved Hawkeyes
Altho they have won only one
game, 14-7 over Bradley Tech, the
Iowans have ehown spurts of win-
CL..
f
ning football. In Nile Kinnick,
sophomore quarterback from
Omaha, Iowa has a player who can
cause furrows to appear on the
brow of any opposing coach. He
is a triple threat and waa recently
voted as one of the outstanding
sophomores in the Big Ten.
Iowa's Last Tilt.
Iowa, in concluding the Huskers'
home schedule this Saturday, will '
play Its last game of the fall. Irl
Tubbs, the Hawkeyees' new coach,
will finish his first year at the
Iowa City institution this weekend.
The last time these two outfits
met was in 1P3 and Nebraska re
versed Iowa, then coached by
Ossie Solemn, now at Syracuse, by
a 14-13 count.
Little or no change developed
over the we'kend as far as the
paltry number of the nation's
undefeated teams are concerned.
California's Golden Bears
cinched the host role in the Rose
Bowl production for New Year's
day by whitewashing Oregon 26
to 0. Sectional sport pages are
beating their drums In a noisy
effort to secure the guest bid.
It's all part of the post-season
ballyhoo that keeps the sport
sections alive during the fore
part of winter, but to me, Ne
braska will have to get along
without California's salubrious
and vitamin-filled clime come
January 1. Chances of getting
a Sugar Bowl bid, however,
arent too remote for he Corn
huskers who certainly merit a
bowl battle, If the invitation Is
tendered.
More important right now is
this Iow frav that rounds out the
uornnustcer nome siaie mis satur-
day. Indiana found the Hawkeyes,
cellar Big Ten team, plenty strong
j out a 3 to 0 win. Every one of
thf)W ,9 vallant Hilars who at-
tempted to stave off Pitt's power
house attack Is tired In more w-ays
than one. Nebraska's coarhes have
the unenviable task of raising the
team morale to complete the sea
son with a Hawkeye victory, and
even those who were rabid Scarlet
enthusiasts B. P. (Before Pitt I are
already saying that the Huskers
can't rebound from the doldrums
that came with the loss to Pitt.
This remains to be seen.
Saturday grid highlights: Kan
sas' 7 to 0 loss to Kansas State
puts Nebraska back on top of
the Big Six with only a win over
K-State neoarsary to give the
Scarlet the conference crown
acjaln . . . Baylor slid down the
grid scales a few more notches
by losing to S. M. U. 13 to 7

Altho we took Nebraska to

didn't fare so badly in grid
guessing. Of the 27 games th's

right, 6 came out wrong and 3
ended In deadlocks, which makes
the average .750 for this week.
