Betas Take
1-0 Decision
From Fijis
Winners Forced to Play
Overtime Game to Win
As Both Teams Threaten
In a game that was as close as
the proverbial cat's whisker, Beta
Theta Pi copped one-half of the
semifinal round of fraternity intra
murals by defeating Phi Gamma
Delta by a 1-0 count.
Tlayed on a field that showed
the effects of the recent rains and
with the weather cold enough to
keep hands tucked warmly away,
the game provided an afternoon
of exc itement for the half hundred
Interested and partisan spectators.
Both teams battled up and down
the field during the regular play
ing time with one showing a little
offensive strength and the other
defensive. Neither could score and
so when the final whistle blew
there had to be an overtime match.
This allows each team four
downs from the scrimmage and
the teams that has the most yard
age in their favor after both have
tried their four downs wins the
game by a 1-0 score.
The Betes did little in the first
half as did the Fijis but in the
closing moments of the third quar
ter after a punt had been blocked
and a pass, Bill Arnot to Tom
Murray was good for 16 yards, the
Betas found themselves on the Phi
Gam's two yard line with four
downs to take it over.
It was at this point that the
losers showed good defensive work
for they kept the eventual win
ners from scoring and Ki Eisen
hardt punted out to the midfield
stripe.
When time had run out, the
Fljis were battling down on the
Beta one yard line going in high
gear. Then the teams went out
to the 20 yard line and scrim
maged with the Phi Gams on of
fense. In the four downs, three
were Incomplete passes and one
end run was good for three yards.
On the Beta's first play, Arnot
tossed for an incompletion and
then after another incompletion,
the referee called an off-side on
the Fijis which meant that gain.
Then all that the Betas had to do
was to get a pass on its way on
the next down and they had won
the game.
There was some discussion con
cerning the ruling on a penalty in
the overtime period with some
thinking that it should count for
only half the intended yardage
that would be awarded for the
penalty. Rules will have to be
mulled over to clear this up.
The game itself was an exciting
one to watch with the ball chang
ing hands often. Best for the Beta
team were Bill Arnot, Tom Mur-

Patty Berg.
...A Real Champion.
Women's Golfing Stars
Reveal Secrets of Game
By Mary Ellen Sim.
"Golf is a sport you have to
keep up with," said Patty Berg,
national women's golf champ, with
her red, curly hair cut short and
her freckled, round face drawn
into as serious lines as freckles, a
round face and a happy disposition
will allow.
"I've been playing for eight
years now and I get off my game
now and then. When I do, I hike
over to my pro and have him
straighten out the kinks," Miss
Berg smiled. She with Helen Dett
weiler, a sister pro, gave a golf
demonstration at the coliseum yes
terday morning before a crowd of
over 250.
Practice Important.
"Constant practice, development
of the wrist and hand movement,
lessons from a good pro, and above
an a desire to play are necessary
to develop a good game. But then
you have to have a desire to play
if you want to be good at any
game don't you think so?"
Patty, for Patty Berg cannot re
main Miss Berg after the first two
minutes of conversation, took up
golf when she was 15 at the insti
gation of her father and brother
who were intensely interested in
golf. She has always been in
terested in snorts. "Golf can be
played all your life and it doesn't
get dull. That's why I like it."
Miss Dettweiler Enthusiastic.
Her companion, Miss Dettweiler,
equally enthusiastic over the
game, is from Chevy Chase, Md.,
which is "half a block from Wash
ington, D. C." where she grew up
to follow her older brother, Bill,
around from golf tournament to
golf tournament.
Incidentally, her brother was
only 14, two months yoinger than
Bobby Jones was, when he quali
fied for the national amateur with
a 72-78. Brother Bill taught Helen,
who like Patty Berg began the
game in 1933. Helen, a blonde,
dark browned-eyed girl, about the
age of Patty has participated in
six big tournaments.
Met in Florida.
The two girls met in Florida in
ray with Stan Huffman and Gene
Tallman coming in for their share
of the glory.
For the Fijis were Ki Fisenhart,
Frank Wolf and Joe Martin. This
puts the winners In the finals pend
ing the Sigma Nu-Farra House
game.

Helen Dettweiler.
...Brother Taught Her.
1936. Helen turned pro about
two and a half years ago and Pat
ty about 18 months ago, left her
studies at Minnesota, where she
said, "I was just going to school."
Both became traveling advisers to
the Wilson Sporting Goods com
pany. Each received a salary plus
traveling expenses.
From here, the girls went to
Omaha for an exhibition today at
the Field club. Next week they
will be in Kansas City, Mo., and
soon after they will leave "for the
warm south away from this freez
ing Nebraska climate," for a three
weeks stay in Mexico.
Tassels to Send
Leading Salesmen
To Minneapolis
Tassels met at the visual educa
tion department offices in the sta
dium yesterday afternoon to have
their picture taken for the Corn
husker, but by the time they left
they had made plans for the
Kansas State migration trip and
had decided to send about half a
dozen Tassels to the Minnesota
game.
Tassels, dressed in their colorful
uniforms, will attend the K State
game en masse. The women's pep
organization will pay half of the
expenses of the six or eight girls
who led ticket sales for the Uni
versity Theatre.

There are several tilings that I
am going to be waiting for with
a great deal of fervor when the
pictures of the Husker-Tiger game
are screened. . . .It was upon these
matters that the final score of the
tilt depended and although we
don't like to quibble, there might
have been a different ending on
the whole matter.
First thing that I will be wait
ng to see is, of course, is just ex
actly what happened in the fourth
quarter when Dale Bradley tossed
his pass to Kemy Simmons with
KENNETH SIMMONS DALE BRADLEY
tourtay Lincoln Journal.
72 minutes gone.... The ball was
resting on the Tiger's 18 yard line
for the Husker's longest drive into
Missouri territory of the second
half and it was fourth down when
Bradley faded back to do the
passing.
While the ball was in the air
speeding to Kenny Simmons on
the five yard line, Harry Ice
emerged from nowhere and all
press reports indicate he climbed
diminutive Kenny's frame pushing
him off balance before he could
get a chance to grab the ball ....

bright. The
play, "The most flagrant case of
uncalled interference they had
ever seen" as Fred Ware of the
World-Herald reported. ...
The official, A. L. Haskins, con
tended that he was it 4 perfect
position to see Ine wnoie p(ay and
that, "Both players have a chance
to field that ball, you know. The
way I saw it Ice touched the ball
as he and the Nebraska boy went
to the ground. Anyway the pic
tures will show it." If the pictures
do show that Ice touched the ball
we won't have any chance to com
plain but if he didn't, deep in every
Husker's mind will the feeling
that the game could have been
won with a first down on the Tiger
five.
Another play that has been
raising a little comment was the
time when Gerry Kathol fumbled
a pass but retrieved it before it
touched the ground just in time
to hear the umpire calling it in
complete. .. .That also helped te
rub the wrong way.
Even the Major got a little per
turbed over the turn taken
on the official's part. . . .What got
him was the act of the officials
penalizing Nebraska during a time
out.... The incident happened in
the fourth also when the Tigers
were penalized five yards for tak
ing too much time on a substtitu
tion giving the ball to the Husk
ers fourth and one to go.... Then
a timeout is supposed to take place
and the Major rushed in a substi
tute but the officials ruled that
the Huskers were taking too much
time so the five yards were given
back to the Missourians. ...
Perhaps, you, too can see why
we are so anxiously awaiting the
pictures that will give us a moral
victory.
