Ware says 79 yard drive
high spot of Husker season;
Baylor game turning point
BY FREDERICK WARE.
(MporU editor, Omaha World-Herald.)
What is a high spot ?
Much depends, I think, on the
individual viewpoint.
From where I'm sitting, the
Huskers' high spot was that 79
ceasful conduct of the rest of the
campaign. What did happen at
Columbia? Why. Missouri licked
the Huskers, that's all.
But Missouri played no such
schedule as Nebraska and the
Sooners played. Missouri was able
to lay for both, and inspired and
"7' V " TV "T : "V to a great extent powered by the
yard march agamst Oklahoma. To brlllint Paul chriatman, Missouri
accomplish it, me Kias usea just succeeded
about everything that can be cata
logued in a varied offense and
the efficiency and wisdom with
which they used just about every
thing was magnificient.
There, I say, was the finest sus
tained attack to be presented by
a Nebraska squad in almost a
generation. And It was truly an
altogether, one-for-all and all-for-one
maneuver; It was the accomp
lishment of two grand lineups,
It's my notion, then, that the
single outstanding brief interval
came in the season's last game
because it's also my notion that
Oklahoma was the toughest team
the Huskers met.
Nebraska's Huskers get their
first taste of basketball competi
tion tomorrow night as they face
South Dakota U. here in the coli
seum.
Coach Carl B. Hoy's Coyotes,
who won the North Central con
ference championship last year,
lost two all-conference players in
Maynard Ingalls and Rome Ed
berg by graduation, but three
other first stringers from last
year, Quint Evers and Bob Sni
der, forwards, and Bob Taplett,
guard, are back. Joe Cadwell, a
senior, is at the other guard, while
John Ptak and O. F. Jacobsen are
in the running for center.
The Coyotes, who lost to Ne
braska 44-30 last year, will be
opening their season also. They
won ten and lost seven games last
season. Hoy, who wjll help con
duct the N. U. coaching clinic
Saturday, has been head coach at
South Dakota since 1928.
Men making the trip to Lincoln
are forwards Evers, Schoof and
Snider; centers Ptak, LaMaster
and Jacobson; and guards Burns
Cadwell, Solbert and Taplett.
The Huskers showed their best
form of the year Wednesday aft
ernoon as the regulars led by
sophomore Lyle King defeated the
reserves 55-25. Al Randall, tall
center from last year, looked to
have regained his scoring eye,
having been missing the basket in
early drills this season.
Pltcaithley captain.
Harry Pitcaithley, game cap
lain, will start at one forward,
and Hartmann Goetze, sophomore,
at the other forward post. Ran
dall should Ret the call at center,
with reliable Don Fitz starting at
on guard, and one of two sopho
mores, Charley vacant! or bia
Held, across from him. King
should see quite a bit of service
judging from his Wednesday per
formance.
Lea Livingston, John Hay, Ray
Rhoades and Warren Radke are
the best of the other sophomores,
while Browne has veterans irv
Yaffee, Bob Therien and Bud
Tallman from last year's first
team, along with B teamers Bruce
Duncan and Don Schultz ready
for action.
Guy Best of Wayne and Parke
Carroll of Kansas City are the of
ficials of the game which will
start at eight o'clock.

that they would attend the rally.

Brockton, Mat.
I say brief interval because
What after all do you mean by
high spot?
The real high spot, I submit,
was this:
For the first time in many a
Was there a turning point to the year, the Cornhuskers of 1939 had
season? I think there was. I n evcr s-;"b -
think It was punctuated by the S' r,urvc'1"
Baylor game. The Jones Boys
played all-but-flawless football
against the southwesterners. And
the southwesterners went back to
their vast home province to win
second place in the Southwest con
ference, to lose subsequently only
to the champion Texas Aggies.
Despite what happened down in
fense. Twenty-eight times in nine
games they worked their way
within their foes' 25-yard line.
Eighteen times they scored. Only
three times were they held for
downs. Only once was a touchdown-intended
pass intercepted.
Only once was a field goal ruined
by the efforts of the other side.
That, mates, represents a wnaie
the Athens of the Persimmon Belt, of an achievement a-game-after
I say the victory over the Bears game achievement, an achievement
just about assured generally-suc- few teams can match.
