Nebraskan for football season.
...Appearing today and every
week after throughout the Hus
ker's season Dennis Bruner will
draw the outstanding personali
ties on the team.. . .
A Bizad .sophomore, Bruner
draws from photographs of the
players and achieves amazing like
nesses of his subjects. .. .It looks
like he has something there....
But definitely. . . .
With the announcement that
Freddie Meier would captain the
moving Cornhuskers this week
against Indiana's team for home
coming, memories return.. . .Last
year Fred, then

The ball was snapped and out
of the muddle emerged Fred, goal

to the Oklahoma one before he
was stopped.. . .The play was a
center-around and did it set the
sports scribblers dizzy.. . .Francis

letters to his credit. He weighs 190
and stands 5-10....
At last it has been solved.

Shown abive is the Blond Bomber, Allen Zikmund, Ord's great
est contribution to the leather-ball sport. Al achieved fame in last
year's Rose Bowl show when he went over for the Husker's second
tally. He came out of the fracas with a broken leg which worried
the Husker followers no end. This fall he appears none the worse
for the injury and has been showing increased speed and endurance.

Role of Triplc-Tlirealcr
With Nebraska holding a three
pound weight edge over Indiana,
Huskers and Hoosiers alike
plunged into the last few days
of practice preceding Nebraska's
homecoming game Saturday.
According to reports of Scouts
Paul Amen and Lewandowski who
have witnessed the Indiana team
in action against both Detroit and
Texas Christian, the Hoosiers
were merely victims of bad
breaks in both contests.
Sophomore Star.
Hillv Hillenbrand. aoDhomore
backfitld star, will be the big
name on the lips of Nebraska
fans if the 190 pound quarterback
lives up to nis aavance notices
pnrl in Ihe oninion of the scouts.
he hns the goods to live up to
these rjinici-ups.
Hillenbrand was picketi oy
Francis Wallace as the back of
the year, starting into his sopho
more season. Billy is able to put
a scare into opposing coaches
since he is as good at lugging the
ball as tossing it through the
ether waves.
Nothing Stops Hoosiers.
News that assures that a lively
name will be in the offine Satur
day is substantiated by the fact
that Indiana cr.sregaraing a wet
practice field stayed out for two
hours perfecting offensive ma
neuvers. Everyone is pointing
toward Nebraska is the best way
to observe the Hoosiers determi
nation not to make the long trip
in vain.
Coach Bo McMillin is through
worrying about adding new plays
to tne noosier repertoire uui ia
niittine- in the week perfecting
the timing on the plays that they
now have.
Games Close.
nnrinr tbe five vears in which
relations have been continued be
tween the two schools, the games
have always been close. It seema
that Indiana is determined xo win
hi came everv vear regardless
of any others. In 1936. Nebraska
won again 7-0. ror tne next iwu
vonr in succession, the eames
ended in ties 0-0 and 7-7, respec
tively.
Last year the Huskers won 13
7 to prove that even a Rose Bowl
. . . a iu.
team can be pusneo ana nam. ure
seven points in '37 proved to be
th largest marein. So. watch out
on Saturday. Homecoming, Indi
ana and Cornhusker spirit should
combine to produce a classic.
