It was one of the Jones boys
who did the damage in Titt's win
over Nebraska last weekend, and
this Saturday it will probably be
a Farmer Left halfback Tom
Farmer who will do much of
Iowa University's offensive work
when the Hawkeyes meet the Hus
kers in Memorial stadium.
Altho a triple -.threat back
Farmer's best work has been of an
aerial nature, with his jmsses
accounting for a large m jority
of the yards forward the Hawk
eyes have chalked up to date this
reason.
Victory-Shy Team.
The Iowa City boys totaled
three victories this season against
four losses, winning over Drake
(25-8), Indiana (13-7) and Illin
oise (21-0), dropping games to
Minnesota (13-3), Michigan (0-6),
Purdue (6-7) and Wisconsin (0-23).
The Hawks have totaled 78 points
while their opponents have a total
of 86.
While Nebraskans lost to Ind
iana 13-21, Coach Eddie Ander
son's team held the Hoosiers to
7 points, at the same time adding
13 points in their favor.
Individual Stars.
The Iowan's team, studded with
such players as backs Al Couppee,
Bill Green and Jim Youel, all of
whom saw service with the great
Iowa team of '39, will be at full
strength for Saturday's tilt.
The Huskers, with Zikmund and
von Goetz back in the lineup after
several idle weekends, will be the
strongest in reserve power and ex
perience they have been in five
games.
Of 20 members of the first board
of regents of the University of
Michigan, created in 1837, only
seven held college degrees.

chronicles the wanderings of an
exiled writer who seeks a home

nationalism, in humanity at large.
The solution arrived at by the exile

the main character of "Embezzled

I By Boh Miller j
Iowa U. has invasion plans in
formulation stage at the present
time... Last week the Hawks
were all primed to discharge an
attack, the like of which the Go
phers had not seen for the entire
season. . .Well, they fired but the
priming was not strong enough
as their projected charge dropped
after 13 points had been scored
on the great Minnesotans.
For a time in the first half the
Hawkeyes were in complete charge
of the affair and it looked like
the Gophers were going to be
thrown for a loss... That is, until
Minnesota was given a chance
with the ball... Bruce Smith, AU
American prospectus, came into
the game at the end of the first
quarter and immediately started
tossing passes which ultimately
tied the score... Then Big Bill
Daley, the lad who did so much
damage to the Huskers, started
the Gopher driving machine and
finally drove across for another
touchdown, followed by a 77 yard
touchdown by the Hawks which
again tied the score... That was
as close as they got to holding
Minnesota after that as the latter
went on to a 34-13 triumph.
It looks to us like Iowa gridders
have something in the way of
an offense. . .Considering the op
position, 13 points were a lot to
score. . .Against Illinois, they
scored 20 points, but they have
not done so well otherwise
Considering, also, Nebraska's
lack of scoring punch with Iowa's
seeming possession of this fac
tor and considering Nebraska's
defensive stands as contrasted
with Iowa, it looks like a battle
pitting one one good offense
against one good defense.
About the Rose Bowl-
The big laugh of the week-end
was provided by Stanford . . . Sev
ern I days previously, the Ind
ian squad members were very
happy about their showing this
year so they took a poll... It was
to decide the team that they
wanted to invite to the Rose Bowl
spectacle, come Janurary 1....
The result well, they decided
they would invite Texas U. if
they got thru the season succes
sfully. . .This is where the laugh
comes in for not only was Texas
knocked off the unbeaten pedes
tal by Texas Christian 14-7, but
Stanford also casted defeat, 14-13,
at the hands of Washington State.
t
Of the major colleges on this
list, there are few. .. Minnesota
tops the list and the nation with
seven wins... Duke, Duquesne,
Texas A & M and Bradley Tech
are the others on the list.. Bowl
officials are certainly going to
have a hard time finding two un
beaten teams to fill their bowls.

contest that is destined to deter
mine whether or not the Huskers
can keep their spirit up enough
after the consecutive defeats to
defeat a loss-injured Hawkeye
team on Saturday.
von Goetz Returns.
Changes hit the first string
line-up as Herbie von Goetz was
reinserted in his gaurd post after
being out of the line due to a lung
injury received in the Indiana
skirmish. Fred Meir was shifted
back to his center position while
Howard Kelly went to a second
string spot.
Noticeably absent from any
squard assignment were Allen Zik
mund and Kenny Simmons, both
of whom reported that they were
in shape for the ensuing battle.
Another name that was missing
was Vike Francis since the eligi
bility board has not as yet announ
ced his appearance in the Iowa
game.
All in Suit.
All of the team were in suit as
was Bob Ludwick, end, who has
been doing a great deal of limp
ing the majority of the season
with an injured ankle.
During 50 years of football,
Nebraska has engaged the Iowa
Hawkeyes 29 times in which the
Huskers have come victorious 19
times with one tic. This year has
been a meager one for both teams
with the Hawks having a chance
to come out with .500 rating by
winning Saturday. They have lost
four and won three so far.
Scrimmage Uppermost.
Scrimmage has been on the doc
ket during the past two days and
the Biffer evidently intends on
passing his way to a win against
Iowa to break a win-drouhth,
whose intensity has not. been felt
for 42 years of football.
