Nebraska's running game, Sat
urday afternoon, against Missouri
was so efficient that the Huskers
were called upon only twioe to
punt... And both of those boots
came in the first quarter. . .
The Tigers pulled a new trend
possibly in the enactment of
warming: up before a game. . .The
temperature stood at 84 degrees at
game time Saturday, so the Ben
gels wore quartersleevea instead
of the complete set of shoulder
pads and Jersies...
Something to look forward to:
The field day that Walter -Butch-Luther
is going to come up with
one of these days... Butch Is long
overdue... He scored twice on
passes against Mizzou, but one of
these afternoons, he's gonna scam
per... Watch out all enemies...
Bill Callihan, 1938 fullback, is
now the regular blocking back for
Byron "Whizzer" White of the De
troit Lions... It's 39 straight
games without a defeat for the
Boys Town eleven of Omaha...
Sunday, the Flanagan gang beat
Oelwein, la., 19-0...
After the Mizzou game, the
Huskers ought to be creeping
within a hair's breadth of the up
per 10 teams in the nation... How
are these for rankings?

Last week: "Stop Christman."
This week: "Stop Jacobs."
The Huskers took care of the
weekend star Paul Christman
on Saturday and are now looking
forward to calling a halt to the
statelite portrayal that Oklaho
ma's Jack Jacobs has been show
ing. Stars may come and stars may
go, but Nebraska has met them
all. First it was George Franc k,
then came Hurlin' Hal Hursh and
Pitchin' Paul. Only one Franck

However, Jacobs is not the only
backf ield star that is pre-trou-bling
the Huskers. There is a fel
low by the name of Johnny Mar
tin, Sooner fullback, who is the
top scorer In the conference.
Martin's two touchdowns
against Iowa State last Saturday
shot him into the lead in the Big
Six scoring. Jacobs is far down
the list with only one touchdown,
but his running, passing and punt
ing are abilities of which to be
ware. Marvin Whited is one of the top I
blockers in the conference and !
calls the Sooner signals. Orvillc !
Mathews, Jacobs' running mate, is j
a ten second man over the cen-,
tury run in his track suit.

it that altho the Sooncrs were a
bit slower, they could stand the

in the last quarter.

a minimum with the Missouri
game out of the way. Hemie Roh

Pictures were shown to the
Husker squad, Monday afternoon,
of the Tiger clash. A skull ses
sion was also held and Sooner
plays were diagramed by the
coaches. Theos Thompson and
Harry Hopp are the co-captains
for the Sooner battle.

The importance of the RAF was
also emphasized throughout the
lecture. The major job of the RAF,
according to Ratcliffe, is to de

them is credited the warding off
of the expected invasion. The in

over the defending champs, Ne

for the first time since the opener

expected to be back in shape and
last week saw the return of King

the KU game and was alseady to
go in last week if he had been
needed.
Shifty Jacobs.
Down under in Soonerland they
are singing the praise of shifty
Jack Jacobs and jolting Harold
Lahar. Jacobs is the runner and
Lahar is the blocker. Together
they constitute a serious touch

Indian descent, Jacobs possesses
many of his ancestors traits, such
as swiftness, alertness and rug-
gedness.
Lahar is regarded by many as
the classiest downfield blocker in
the midwest. His main idea on the
field is destruction and his pur
pose is more often than not ac
complished.

Nebraska wins,
17-19, 2-mile race
from Missouri
Nebraska's two milers kept
their fall record intact Saturday
afternoon, when they nosed out
Missouri 17-19 over the stadium
cinders after the Missouri-Nebraska
game.
Little Bobby Ginn, Madison
sophomore, came in first in the
time of 9:56.5. Harold Brooks
came in with the winning points
as he strode ahead of Rayl of the
Tigers in the closing strides to
take second place.
Arden Kersey finished sixth and
Bill Cook placed eighth to round
out the field. Rayl placed third,
Lane fourth, Brents fifth, and
Reeves seventh for the Tigers.
Interview-
( Continued from Page 1)
limited to supplies for this year."
Ratcliffe is correspondent.
Ratcliffe is American correspon
dent for the Spectator, London
publication. His idea of a college
newspaper does not exactly coin
cide with the typical American
college newspaper. "If I were edit
ing a college newspaper, it would
not follow the style of a metropoli
tan newspaper. Invariably in the
story of a lecture quotations are
singled out that are not important
and never are exactly as the lec
turer said them."
A typical Britisher, formal,
speaking in straight forward,
clipped English, Ratcliffe does not
favor training for newspaper work
in schools of journalism, but says
that English reporters are trained
in public affairs and the stories
they turn out are true works ot
craftsmanship. According to him,
Britain still mantams her long es
tablished freedom of press. "Publi
cation of newspapers is regular in
London. War news is censored but
nothing else. Newspapers are en
tirely free to discuss all public
affairs and criticize the govern
ment. Papers are smaller in size.
however, due to the paper ration."
Jacobs the Sooners have a passer
of the Christman type. In fact
in the Okie-Missouri game of last
year Mister Jacobs very definitely
outpassed the much talked of
Christman.
In Nebraska there is also a boy
of passing ability. We might tab
him Heaving Hermie Rohrig.
Passers come and passers go but
we are yet to see more beautiful
strikes than Hermie pitched In the
Missouri game last week. DoLig
that with his sore arm is some
thing to boast a bout
Should Nebraska win that would
just about cinch things as far as
a conference winner was con.
cerned. Should they lose, well then
things would be in pretty much
of a muddle.
