Every Husker
foe plays on
tl
le morrow
Iowa, Oklahoma in easy
games; Tigers-Panthers;
Butts-Aggies in toss-ups
While the Nebraska Cornhusk
ers are doing battle with Minne
sota on the Gopher lot, their oppo
nents are also having a full after
noon with their respective engage
ments. Indiana is meeting the Univer
sity of Texas on the Hoosier play
field. Texas, tutored by D. X.
Bible, is said to have the best team
of the Bible regime and from what
the experts say the game will be
a tosaup with Indiana a slight fa
vorite. However the margin is so
slight that no one should go out
on the limb too far.
Kansas State will meet Colo
rado and from all indications
should have plenty trouble. The
game will be played on the Buff
gridiron which will hinder the
Staters' strength.
. Cyclone, Jayhawks close.
Altho defeated last year at Kan
sas the tables are due to be turned
this fall as . Iowa State is the
choice to thump the University of
Kansas. Iowa State rated as con
siderably stronger this season and
will bear watching thruout the
season's play, according to those
who are in the know.
Despite its setback last Satur
day at the hands of Ohio State.
Pittsburgh goes into its game with
Missouri rated the slight favorite.
The two teams oid not play laM
year and according to last week's
play the Panthers will rate the
choice in 'another toasup. Much
will depend on the condition of
Paul Christman.
Iowa in breather.
Iowa will tuneup on the Univer
sity of South Dakota in a home
engagement. South Dakota, the
victims of a sound drubbing last
fall, will have their hands full to
keep from the same treatment
this fall. Iowa will have a much
better balanced team this year and
will be tough for the Dakotans.
The edge is definitely on the Iowa
side of the fence.

Husker 2-mile
team working
out for races
Working out on the cinders of
Memorial stadium are prospective
members of Nebraska's two-mile
team for the meets this fall. Coach
Ed Weir is supervising them, as
well as several other track men
who are getting in shape.
Letterman Bill Cook of North
Loup is after a position again
this year. He placed fourth in the
mile run in the Big Six indoor and
outdoor meets and won first in the
two-mile run in a dual meet with
Iowa State with a clocking of
9:52. Cook's best time last season
out against their neighbors from
the institution of Oklahoma A &
M. The latter proved to be a push
over last year and will in all prob
abilities have a rough time again
this year. The game will be a
testing ground for the untried
Sooner who will carry the brunt
of the load for Stadium Stidham
this term.

Diller, ran the two-mile in 10:02
last year and hopes to break ten
minutes this season.

squad will consist of only four
men. Oklahoma will be the sec
ond opponent, October 26, at Nor
man. Missouri comes here No
vember 2 and the conference meet
will be November 16 at Columbia.
One reason why Coach Weir and
his squad are out for the cham
pionship is because in the confer
ence system of scoring, a cham
pionship in two-mile counts as
much as a first place spot in
football, basketball, and all the
other Big Six sports.
Glenn Funk, second lieutenant
in the U. S. Marines, is working
out with the track team. Glenn
ran for UN in 1934. 1935 and
1936 and now is on the regular
Marine rifle team.
