It's Life!
Today a we tit with our feet on the polished desk top,
nxminatirely gnawing upon the typewriter, listening to the
drip-drip of the rain and our ale can, a sudden draft strikes
out neck.
Suddenly we get a faint whiff of shaving lotion, Acne
Company brand. We turn around and there grinning sardoni
cally down at us is not our bootlegger but MacBeth, himself.
Cigar smoke curling up half -hides his face, but we can see he's
his usual villianous self black beard, huge boots, and spats.
He lounges in one of the chairs, staring at us for several
moments without speaking.
"Good night for a drunk," he casually observes. Then he
reaches over and catches a few drops of ale in his top hat.
Tossing it off with tidy dispatch, he thumps his hat and puts
it on. Leaning back, he manages to look quite nonchalant de
spite two stray trickles of ale sliding down his face.
Tictty good ale," he says. Having just finished eight
cans we were forced to nod in agreemnt. .
"Speaking of women," he starts. We eye him with a cold
state. 4 'We weren't. But say, Mac, how do you think the
Iluskers stack up against Indiana next week.
"Speaking of women," he continues, "they're like pup
pies." Having never been bitten by a dog, we listened.
He scratches his leg absent-mindedly with the lighted end
of his cigarette, then dissertates.
"Don't forget, my boy,
Etchings are fetching
But liquor is quicker."
He pulls a shot glass of rum from his toga and eyes it re
flectively. "Indiana? If Presnell's kids can stop Hillenbrand
they'll make 01' Bo start crying," he continues, pouring the
remainder of the keg into his glass.
He stands up and adjusts his monocle. "Better watch that
kid, Jacoby too. Remember what he did to the Iluskers last
year."
We did remember the ski ttery -legged Jacoby, who fielded
Hillenbrand's tosses so snuggly and drove the Scarlet ends
dizyz with his wide sweeps. We also recall howitzer-like Hoos
ier fullback, driving Bob White.
"I must be off," comments MacBeth. ."I have a blind
date waiting for me at Freddy's." Beuig a bit suspicions of any
slick date at Freddy's, we looked at him thoughtfully. He
walked over to the window and stepped out. Our office was
on the third floor of the Journal
As we sit staring at the window, a knock on the door
startles us. It is our bootlegger. We pay him for the quart of
root beer, tip him liberally with copies of last year's Awgwan,
throw the empty keg out of the window, and settle down 1o la
bor with the root beer at our elbow.

Scrap Contest
MANHATTAN, Kans., Oct 2.
Renewing an age-old Nebraska
Kansas fued, this time apart from
the gridiron, the Kansas State
student body challenged the Husk
er students to a scrap drive, Fri
day.
The Kansas State Collegian, stu
dent newspaper proposed that K-
State and U. N. battle it out at
the weighting scales the chal
lenge being part of the bet be
tween the states' two governors.
Honors will go to the school gath
ering the most scrap.
To back up the new challenge,
a pair of cannons guarding the
Nichols gymnasium for the past
two decades was' immediately do
nated by the Kansans.
Pledges of fraternity and soror
ity were sent scurrying into attics
and basements ar.J men in the
school of engineering formulated
plans to raise un-used equipment
in laboratories including tons of
railroad tracks this week as the
campus caught on fire with the
competitive spirit.
Train Shortage
Stumps Iowa
Sealiawk Crew
IOWA CITY, la. Oct 3 A
shortage of train seats caused a
temporary floundering of the Iowa
Seahawks Friday afternoon when
they boarded a northbound train
for their game with Minnesota's
Golden Gophers.
When the time of departure
from Des Moines approached, LL
CoL Bernie Bierman discovered
that only 24 seats were available
for his 52 man football party.
After a momentary delay, space
was provided for the remainder
of the squad in the dining car.

double stripes. With Bobby Coop
er holding, Vic Schleich disected
tthe uprights with his conversion
attempt Score 13-0 three min
utes left of the second stanza.
Third Quarter.
Play in the third period see
sawed as a warm sun broke loose
from the clouds to light up the
greensward. Biggest offensive
push was the Husker drive which
carried to Cyclone 18-yad line.
A 62-yard Bradley quick kick
had previously pushed the invaders
deep intotheir own territory. Eisen
hart failed by one yard on a
fouilh-down drive to halt the drive
on the 9-yard line. Third quarter
gun sounded with the Cyclones still
driving their initial first down.
Joe Partington, a hawk for loose
aerials, leaped high at the outset
of the last quarter and speared
Royal Lohry's long aerial. From
Partington's interception at the
Nebraska 41-yard marker to the
202 was nearly exclusively a one
man drive with booming Howie
Debus at the helm.
Debus ran cn. for 12 yards,
nailed Metheny's 17-yard pass on
tthe 15... then really took the
tiller. Debus for one, for four, for
two, for eight across the right
end for touchdown No. 3. His con
version missed connections. 19-0.
Hopp Trots.
Royal Lohry and Paul Darling,
twin-motors of the Cyclone of
fense, opened on all cylinders after
the Debits splurge. Six straight
Cyclone first downs came in the
final period as a result of the
Lohry-Darling blitz but all to no
avaiL Just as the attack started
to bite into deep Husker territory,
chubby Wally Hopp intercepted
Lohry's pass on the 33-yard stripe.
Scenery was laid for the crowd
pleaser of the day.
Legs pounding like pistons,
Wally picked up four blockers and
headed deep down the west side
line. One by one the blockers did
their job until the Hastings roly-
poly had one defender and one
offender. Said offender lurched
for the hurrying Hopp heels on the
Iowa 27-yard stripe.
You could nearly hear Wally's
brakes screech as he swerved
sharply to the right and stumbled
26 li yards goalward. The one-half
yard shortage occurred when
Wally tumbled heavily on the
double stripes. A sharp jab
through the middle by Randall
Salisbury brought the score. Vic
Schleich's conversion boot made it
26-0 with three minutes to go.
Roy Long bore the Husker brunt
during the closing minutes while
Tip pee's passing was the closing
Cyclone offensive push.
Huskers Click.
To single out individual Huskers
for recognition is a task. How
ever, the play of Howard Debus,
Dale Bradley, AI Zikmund and Ki
Eisenhart in the backfield was
consistently hard-driven and ef-
fesuve. Sophomore pivot, Joe
Partington shared defensive laur
els with his farmer Lincoln high
teammate, Forrie Bachman. Bach
man broke through several times
to toss opposing packers for a loss.
Vic Schleich was a power at
tackle, Mary Thompson his usual
pesky self on one wing, and Jack
Hazen effective on the other side.
Hazen's pass-caU-hing and defens
ive play stxl only a mite higher
than Jerry Kathol's. Zikmund
gained 42 yards in 10 dashes,
Debus 32 in 9 and Eisenhart, 42 in
14.
Nebraska closed with 14 first
downs to the Iowans six. Joe Part
ington put the post-game feelinrr
into nearly a consensus thought.
"Picked up little over last week,
didn't we," grinned Joe from be
neath a steaming hower.
