Look at it from this angle. The
Indians don't have the apare re
placements in quality that the
H inkers possess. Any machine
needs reinforcements and the
Scarlet substitutes are above the
Cardinal's level.
Here's a little leftover from the
Redskin-Bear professional game
played last Sunday. The Chicago
boys had been booting each extra
noint bv placement after their
numerous touchdowns (11 in all)
and after each kick the ball didn't
return from the crowd behind the
goal posts.
On the tenth attempt, a Bear
sub raced to Referee "Red" Frie-
ell and said:
"Hey, Red, tell those guys not
ta kick. There arent any more
balls on the bench." So the Bears
obligingly switched to a pass play
cently, compiled nine teams of the
better national football players.
Nebraska's Warren Alfson was
placed at guard on the second
team, Forrest Behm. Husker
tackle, was on the eighth team
and Eddie Schwartxkopf was at a
guard slot on the ninth team.
Gaining honorable mention were
Huskers Clarence Herndon at
tackle. Bob Burruss at center and
Harry IIopp at halfback. As a
nominee for consideration. Royal
Kahler, Husker tackle, was also
mentioned. The first team:

Here is your glamour boy9
eleven of the Big Six loop
By Mary Kerrigan.
In this, the month of all-star football teams, we present a differ
ent all-eleven. This particular lineup is composed of the boys with
the "beautiful pans." Favoritism for Nebraska gridders is shown by
naming four to this squad, but we know these four Huskers and can
vouch for the authenticity of their good looks.
Listed among the Nebraska ."good lookers" ar Warren Alfson,
the 193 prize "beauty" as picked by a campus survey for the
Awgwan"; Forrest Behm, the ROTC student high and mighty; Fred
Meier, a center who Is the center of attention In a crowd of girls;
and George "Bus" Knight, who rivals Wayne Morns of the movies
in gridiron glamour.
Lovable lineup
Others on the team are Louis "Tree-Top" Sharpe of Oklahoma
because he's tall, dark and handsome; Doug Graves of Iowa State
at the other end for similar reasons; Howard Teeter of Oklahoma
for his manly physique and combined good looks; and Bill Nichols
of Kansas State for his beauty, fill out the line.
Besides Bus Knight in the backfield, we had to place Paul
Christman of Missouri who is the Tiger gridiron Adonis; Marvin
Vandaveer of Kansas who can dazzle the fans with the best of them:
and lastly Paul Darling of Iowa State who personifies that name
in every respect.
The coach, yes, we have to have one to instruct the boys, 13
Genial Jim Yeager of Iowa State. With a ready and winning smile
and his "fatherly attitude," he rounds out this team of Big Six
glamour boys." The lineup:
End Louis "Spiffy" Sharpe, Oklahoma.
Tackle Howard "Taraan" Teeter, Oklahoma.
Guard Warren "Adonis" Alfson, Nebraska.
Center Fred "Masterful" Meier, Nebraska.
Guard Bill "Nifty" Nichols, Kansas State.
Tackle Forrest "Beautiful" Behm, Nebraska.
End Douglas "Glamorous" Graves, Iowa State.
Quarterback George "Knockout" Knight, Nebraska.
Halfback Paul "Delightful" Darling, Iowa State.
Halfback Marvin "Vivacious" Vandaveer, Kansas.
Fullback Paul "Calamity" Christman, Missouri.
Coach Jim "Yearning" Yeager, Iowa State.

Marquette and
Nebraska both
seek first wins
MILWAUKEE, Wis. Marquette
and Nebraska, both defeated in
their season openers, will be out
for victory spelled with a capital
"V," Saturday night, when the
two get together on the Husker
coliseum court.
The Comhusker quintet lost in
a double overtime game last Fri
day to the University of South Da
kota, 40-39, and Marquette lost to
Wisconsin last Saturday 38-32.
Two sophomores are expected
to be in the Blue and Gold start
ing lineup along with some sea
soned veterans. Mike Poja, for
ward, and Jerry Schudrowitx,
guard, are the first year men
probably in the Hilltop lineup.
Played in 1934.
This will be the second game
between the two teams. The Hill
toppers won the first time in Mil
waukee, 25-22, in 1934. Officials
will be Jack North, Highland
Park, referee, and Gene Kemper,
Topeka, umpire.
Minus such stars as Bobby
Denecrt, Bill McDonald, Ralph
Amsden and Bill staffeld of last
year's team, besides such with
drawals as Reserves George Col
lentine, Jack Nagle, Tony Kelly
and George Sutter, Marquette goes
into the caging wars this winter
with slim hopes. Hilltop fans are
certain of one thing, however,
namely that Coach Bill Chandler,
now in his eleventh season here,
will get the most out of the ma
terial available.
Best news emanating from Mar
quette caging headquarters is that
Big Bill Komenich, huge uary,
Ind., guard who was the main
spring of a brilliant showing by
the varsity in the first semester
of last season has regained his
eligibility. Komenich ran into
scholastic difficulties during the
second semester last winter, and
the team slumped with him out of
the lineup.
Six lettermen.
There are six other lettermen
on the Hilltop squad in Bob von
Bereghy, Gary. Ind., and Jimmy
Reavley, Milwaukee, former
guards who are now working at
forward posts; Matt Reicfcl, vvau
sau. Wis, and Bill Rogers, Wau-
watosa. Wis, centers; Bernol
Ketchum, Milwaukee, forward, and
Charles Hammer, Milwaukee,
guard.
Sophomore forwards include
Bill Chandler, jr, Wauwatosa, the
coach's son, and Eugene O'Brien,
Mike Poja and Mike Swieciak, Mil
waukee. Novice guards are Gene
Joyce, Antigo, Wis.; Dennis Man
ning, Chicago, BL, and Frank
Rozga, Norman Ruck and Jerry
Schudrowitx, Milwaukee. A new
comer among the centers is Bob
Rosendahl. Hurley, Wis.
Tom McCarthy, Milwaukee, is a
holdover guard, while John Good
year, La Grange, BL, junior for
ward, and Franklin Schweers,
Shawano, Wis, sophomore center,
will report from the football
squad.
