Coach Biff Jones took advantage Of the first cool day of the fall practice season and sent four var ity teams through an intensive two hour scrimmage yesterday afternoon. The Green eleven worked a first down early in the scrimmage, Bob Kahler picking up five after a penalty. The Reds picked up an other finst down shortly before the Major sent in two new teams. Porter returned the second Green team's kickoff 30 yards down the sidelines, and after an exchange of punts, shot a short pass to DcFruiter that netted 15. Porter got sev en more over tackle and Blue then drove off guard and elud ed the second ary to score after running 20 yards. Por ter converted to make the score 7-0.

A r w As I See It BY JUNE BIERBOWER The time has come for gridiron talk and such so a look at the Husker team is In order. As yet, things are a bit in the air while Royal Kahler attempts to clear his eligibility. Kahler, one of the biggest men in the Husker line, was drilled as regular left tackle last spring, but his scholas tic standing is doubtful as yet. This is one case where a single player can make a whale of a dif ference in a team. The Husker aren't any too long on experienced tackles, and as Link Lyman said the other day, Kahler's replace ment, Clarence Herndon, is in the position Kahler was last year good," but green. Time and again it's the tackle spot where the heavy traffic is. No team ever went anywhere with out tackles, and without Kahler, we're wondering what the pore in N. U. tackles will do up against the big bad brutes from Oklahoma, where a tackle under 200 pounds is called a shrimp. Then, just to make it a bit worse, Ralph Whitehead, sopho more candidate from Minatare, is in pretty deep water with his books. He wasn't counted on as a starter, but capable reserves never hurt any team. Ah me, we'd better quit, or things will look bad. an end run. Rohrig then shot a 15 yard pass to Luther in the end zone that was good. Rohrig booted the extra point. The Greens then began a goal ward march, Hopp passing to Kahler for 40 yards. Harryj men picked up eight over guar-1 on a spinner. Rohn hit the line for four. Hopp then fad ed back to nass and finding no i receiver, ran 13 yards to score. Hit try for point was eood. The "C" and D" squads were then sent out on the field. imrrv Hrr Both sides failed Lincoln Journal. to dazzle on the offense and ex changed punts several times be fore the Biffer ended the scrimmage. n m I!
