Wednesday, November 22, 1939 The DAILY NEBKASKAN m if s By June Bierbower. Our weekly lesson on compara tive scores: Nebraska tied Indiana 7-7. Ford ham beat Indiana 13-0. Which de duction figures Fordham 13 points better than Nebraska (never! never!). But to go on, Fordham Jil beat Pitt 27-13, or by 14 points. 14-13 equals a one point advantage, and in this case a sweet 14-13 win ning score for the Huskers. Sim ple, ain't it? Don Faurot is starting seven senior linemen against KU Sat urday... they are the Orf broth ers at ends, Wetzel and Haas, tackles, Waldorf and Pickett, guards, Moser at center. . . Dick Favor, the Oklahoma Sooner blocking back was knocked dizzy on the kickoff of the Sooner Missouri game when he gave Jim Starmer, who had received the kick, a vicious tackle. .. Little Dickie isn't used to going around doing favors at any time we un derstand. .. in the K-State game the Kansas State bench was razzing him thruout the games, saying such things as "Why don't you use your uppcrcut, Favor?". .. Movies of the game showed the reason why... Favor was running interference most of the time with his fists clenched. In looking over the AP selec tions we are moved to a fow nurq- tions..-hov many of the second ten really could beat the Huskers who are also-running with Oregon State?. ..that second ten has Holy Cross. Durjuesnc, UCLA, Princeton and Georgia Tech... some good teams, yes, but there aren't 20 in the U.S. better than the Huskers ...and we'd like to see 'cm up against a few of the first ten boys too, tho we'll admit there'd be trouble to the overflowing against Texas A. & M., Tennessee. Cornell, USC, Tulane. Ohio State, Notre Dame, Duke, Iowa, Missouri. . .and we'd like to see the other nine teams lay claws on Tennessee. Citadel and Mercer whom the Vols play and a far cry from rugged ones like Cornell, Ohio State and Missouri. . .and. in passing, we might note Notre Dame is rated two places above Iowa who beat Notre Dame.

Mum Score against Sooners would give NU tallies in every game Should Nebraska score against Oklahoma Saturday, it will be the first time since 1927 that a Ne braska team has tallied in every game of the season and the first time in history that a Husker squad has scored in all games of a nine game schedule. Nebraska got 7 points against Indiana, 6 against Minnesota, 10 in the Iowa State game, 20 against Baylor, 25 at Kansas State, 13 at Missouri, 7 against Kansas, and 14 against Pitt, making 102 in all thus far. That is NU's best offen sive total since 1936, when they got 187 points, ben:'? held scoreless only by Minnesota. They counted 99 points in 1937 and 68 last year. In the eight game schedule that year Nebraska won six, beating Iowa State, Grinnell, Syracuse, KU, K-State, and NYU. They lost to Pitt and Mis souri, rolling up 211 points in the eight games. The year before they scored in eight games, too, but made only 123 points during the season, and lost to Missouri and Washington. The Huskers have never in his- tory gone thru a nine game season in which they scored in every game. The Sooners prevented them from doing that in 1937, when Tom Stidham's boys and Nebraska played to a scoreless tie in the rain. The 1928 team beaten only by Army, would have scored in every game of a nine game slate had it not been for a 0 to 0 tie with Pitt. Texas Ags, Cornell, rated best Sooners drop as Missouri team wins; Tulane, USC strong Texas A & M leads this week's AP ratings, as Tennessee, which was first last week, dropped to second. No. 1 team in the Azzi Ratem list is Cornell who walloped Dartmouth last weekend. Missouri is given tenth place in the AP poll, and seventh in Azzi Ratem. Next nine teams in the AP poll are Tennessee, Cornell, USC, Tu lane, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Duke, Iowa, Missouri. The second ten has Holy Cross, Duquesne, UCLA, Oklahoma, Clcmson, Georgetown, Santa Clara and North Carolina, Fordham, Prince ton and Georgia Tech. Also-rans are Nebraska and Oregon State; Colorado and Mississippi. NU fourteenth. In the Azzi Ratem list Nebraska is in fourteenth place, while Okla homa was dropped to sixteenth Behind Cornell, the other members of Boand's first 30 are Texas A & M, Tulane, Notre Dame, USC, Ohio State, Missouri, Duke, Ten nessee, North Carolina, Princeton, Georgetown, Iowa, Nebraska, Holy Cross, Oklahoma, UCLA, Du quesne, Oregon State, Clemson, Santa Clara, Georgia Tech, Michi gan, Fordham, Kentucky, Boston College, Mississippi, Pittsburgh, Baylor, Villanova. Gymnostics tryours November 27, 28 Try-outs for positions on the gymnastics team are to be held Nov. 27 and 28. Promising men who may force lettermen to the limit are Charles Snr-kovsky, Harry Hinder and Harold Buxton. Jeke Gciser, letterman, broke a finger last week but will be avail able when the season opens. - - HURRY- Only $ Days Left to GORNHUSKER vwm vB7-vih TO mm Back in 1902, 1903 and 1904 the Huskers scored in every game. Not only that but they were unde feated, and untied in 1902 and 1903, and unscored upon in 1902. They played ten games in 1902, and eleven each in the other two years. In 1907 the Huskers piled up 325 points in 9 games, but in the tenth contest of the season they were dumped 34-0 by St. Louis. A scoreless tie with Minnesota was the only "blot" on the ten game record in 1908, as the Huskers scored in nine games, altho they lost to KU and Carlisle. In 1911 they scored in every one of their eight games and lost only to Minnesota, altho Iowa State and Michigan got 6-6 ties. 117 of the 281 points came against Kearney. In 1913 they had another all scor ing season, and were also unde feated. 138 points had another all scoring season, and were also un defeated. 138 points and a 7-0 vic tory over the Gophers were the high marks. They had missed SCOring in every game of the, 1912 season as Minnesota won a 13-0 decision. In 1914 the Huskers were un defeated and scored in every game except the scoreless tie with South Dakota. 173 points was the searon's total. Then in 1915 the undefeated, untied team got 282 points in eight games, and beat Notre Dame 20-19. In 1916 they lost 20-0 to Notre Dame but scored in the other seven games, tho they lost to KU, 7-3. The Huskers scored in six of their seven 1917 games, in eight of nine m luzu, ana m seven of eight in 1921 when the only loss was to Notre Dame, 7-0. That year they beat Pitt, 10-0, and Oklahoma 44-0. They tallied 283 points in all. The VJZZ team scored in all its games, but lost 9-6 to Syracuse, as thev got 276 points in eight games. The i'J4 team, beaten by Notre Dame and Oklahoma, scored in every one of its eight games, getting 108 points. Hear it after the Chicago r 1 I YOU'VE ASKED FOR B I THIS BAND!

Petsch, Bob Kahler, Rohrig and Dobson compose the brickfield. Royal Kahler, Luther and Ramey were in sweat clothes last night, but were going thru the work with the rest of the team. Bus Knight, in uniform, was bothered with a kink in his leg, but the squad is in good condition as Henry Rohn, lone injury at Pitt, was in uni form and seems to be entirely over the effects of the jolting he got at Pitt. Adolph Lcwandowskl, who has scouted every Nebraska opponent except Pitt, says Oklahoma is the best team he has seen. Reports from Columbia indicate that the Sooners, although they lost to Mis- souri, outplayed the Tigers in Deaten xseDrasKa at uncom. and everyinmg dui scoring. Meanwhile, Oklahoma is out to get back on the winning side of the ledger again. They have never will have to face a Nebraska team which has pointed for the game all season Saturday. Novel Wood, lineman injured in the game Saturday will probably be on the sidelines here, but Bob Seymour, ace fullback will be ready to play.
