Manhattan will be the center of
prid hostilities this Saturday as
Nebraska's grldmen drop the cur
tain on the 1937 season by tangling
with the Kansas State Wildcats In
a game that will decide the final
outcome of the jumbled Big Six
race.
As a result of its two wing, no
defeats and two ties. Nebraska is
leading the chase at .750 and is
trailed by Oklahoma at .700. A
triumph over the Kaggies this
weekend will give the Huskers
their third consecutive Big Six
crown.
However, there are four other
possibilities in which the battle for
the conference diadem may termi
nate. Coach Tom Stidham's Soon
ers, who held the Huskers to a
scoreless tie here, can have sole
ownership of the flag if Kansas
State reverses Nebraska and Mis'
sour! beats Kansas.
Sooners, Huskers Can Share.
If Mentor Adrian Llndscy's Jay
hawks, who battled Nebraska to
a 13-13 tie, lose to Missouri this
Thursday at Lawrence and the
Huskers tie Kansas State, the
Jonesmen and the Oklahoma
Sooners will sharo the title.
Kansas and Oklahoma will be
co-champs if Kansas wins and Ne
braska loses. Kansas, Oklahoma
and Nebraska will own the cham
pionship If Kansas triumphs 'over
Mizzou and Kansas State has a
deadlock with the Cornhuskers.
Monday's practice was devoted
to perfecting pags defense and
offense as Major Jones ushered
out three full teams on the varsity
field. The aerial heaves, which
worked so effectively In last Sat'
urday's 28-0 rout of Iowa, were
propelled by Thurston Phelps and
Johnny Howell.
Squad Sees Pictures.
After the practice, Coach Jones
hied the gridders to the conference
room where they were shown piC'
turcs of last year's Nebraska'
Kansas State game, which the
Huskers won handily, 40-0.
Casualties from the Hawkeye
tilt were few, Paul Amen, end,
having a finger In a splint and
Hugo Hoffmann and Harris An
drews, backs, complaining of
slightly wrenched ankles. Only
Hoffmann did not report for drill
yesterday, and according to
Trainer Cornell he with Amen and
Andrews, should be in shape for
Saturday's title battle at Man
hattan.
Mcllravy Limbers Up.
EKlon Mcllravy, fullback, In
ured in that memorable Minne
sota game Oct. 2, put on a sweat
suit and football shoes for a short
limbering up exercise. Slowly,
Fullback Mcllravy is regaining
poundage lost thru an operation
on his head for removal of a blood
clot, and he expects to be on hand
for spring grid drills.
Officials for the game Saturday
are E. C. Qmgley, St. Mary s,
referee; Ed Cochrane, Kalamazoo,
umpire; John Waldorf, Missouri,
linesman, and Jack Crangle, Mis
souri, field judge.

BIG SIX TWO MILE TITLE
Brownlee Finishes Second
After Munski of Mizzou
Breaks Tape.
On a frozen track at Columbia
Mo., Saturday, Coach Ward Hay-
lett's Kansas Staters nosed out the
University of Missouri, 50-37, to
retain their Big Six outdoor two-
mile championship.
As was expected. John "Lone'
some" Munskl, Missouri sophO'
more, finished first in 9:44, altho
he failed to break the conference
mark of 9:32 established by Glenn
Cunningham of Kansas In 1932.
Nebraska's John Brownlee, jun
ior from Omaha, had to put on a
burst of speed on the home stretch
to edge out Mark Collins of Mis
souri for second place. Leonard
Miller and Charles Mitchell, both
of Kansas State, came In fnu'rth
and fifth, respectively. Wilson
Andrews of Nebraska took sixth
and Jacob Stlmson of Iowa hit the
tape for seventh place.
As teams, Iowa State finished
third, Nebraska fourth, Oklahoma
fifth and Kansas sixth and last.

Thet perpetually grinning guard,
Lowell English, whose forward
wall activities pass unnoticed by
those grid-goofs who have eyes
only for the man with the pig-
skin, lost his
Cheshire cat
counte nance
once this sea
son. That was
when he failed
to split the up
rights with a
point after
touchd own in
the 13-13 Kan
sas stalemate.
Eight other

last Saturday,
he booted per-

LOWELL ENGLISH the Cornhusker
From Lincoln Journal score by eight
points. Placeklcking is but one
of his gifts. Those close to the
midweek scrimmages and Satur
day pileups know full well how
effective his blocking and tackling
can be when injuries aren't slow
ing him down. It takes a lot of
grit to come out of one of those
muscle massaging dogpiles with a
grin.
Scrapping and submarining his
way thru rival lines to get at the
ball toter, Guard Bobby Mehring
merits orchids for his work as
Nebraska's watch charm guard,
not in one par
ticular game
but for his cou
rageous play
all season. If
you've been
watching those
line pileups this
season, you
have noticed
that about the
last man to
pick himself up
from the mass
of legs and
arms Is a tiny
lad with a
grimy number BOB MEHRING
11 on his back From Lincoln Journal
and chest. He wasn't flat on his
back watching the foe's runner
walking thru his berth, He was
usually successful In grabbing a
leg or an arm of the lugger to
make the tackle or to slow him
up so that someone else could pin
him to earth. Mehring was the
mercury footed boy who hauled
down Mnd Marshall Goldberg
from behind in the Pitt clash
when nary a redshirt stood be
tween the Fanther star and the
double stripe.

hour ambitious young fullbacks have been spending the whole season at Kansas State trying to
fill the shoes of Maurice "Red" Elder, for three years an all-star Big Six fullback. Head Coach Wes
Fry, former All-American from Iowa, has been working in all four at the spot. Fred Klemp, Bob
Briggs, Elmer Hackney and James Brock have given Coach Fry a formidable quartet from which to
draw. They'll all probably see action Saturday against Biff Jones' Cornhuskers who have only the
Manhattanltes to conquer for a Big Six title championship.

of Nebraska while playing frosh
football. The Big Six rulebook
says that when you're eligible for
a degree as Phelps will be if he
gets thru his first year in law
school-you are ineligible for
football, even if the degree is not
accepted. The rule may be cir
cumvented If Phelps flunks (which
this heady man won't do) or if he
just fails to take enough hours
to get that A. B. degree. 'Tis a
sorrowful rub when education and
athletics conflict like this, but me
thinks the call to both duties is
equally strong and will result in
seeing Phelps back in the mole
skins, worrying over law case
utterances that will escape the
Brown Derby award.
