The team which looked better losing to Ne braska than it did winning from Denver hopes to ma.ke Marquette pay for that football lesson. Iowa State, stoppci by Ne braska last week, looks now to meeting Marquette at Ames Oct. 10 in the first home game of the year for the Cyclones. Ray Donels, head coach of the Iowa State eleven, said that in many respects the Cyclones locked better losing than they did win ning. "With all its power Nebraska could not score thru the line," Donels pointed out. "Nebraska had to pass to score or to keep its drive going. Nebraska outcharged tis in the line, but that was not unexpected. We've given the boys some pretty stiff leg work and that didn't help against Nebraska. But it is going to pay dividends from here on in." Donels would not say he was pleased in defeat, but he did point A Season Tickets Now On Sale Lincoln Junior League Town Hall Series Vtmtmring Father Cornell Otis Hub bur Skinner A K. P.

Athey, Zikmund, Bradley and other ball packers alternated on the end of various plays. Scrim mage was light but the Scarlet backs succeeded on a majority of their sallies. Fred Metheny, first-string signal-barker, was still in sweat togs. Freddy contacted a cold during Saturday's scrap and has been ill since. Scries Records Fall 'En Masse' BY BILL IRWIN. That the Cardinals won the 1942 world series is granted, but con sidering the records tied and broken during the five game series, we must concede that title to the Yankees. Three records and the tie of another went to Yank Pitcht-r Charley Ruffing, slugging Joe Di Maggio took two, Phil Rizzuto added a few, and the Yankee team as a whole laid claim to several more. Ruffing Record. Ruffing's no hit streak for the first seven and two-thirds innings of the series snapped the seven and one-third string of Herb Pen- nock made in 1937. Waite Hoyt's record of playing seven series ft 921 -19311 was tied OV KUTting and at the same time he topped Hoyt, Bender of tne Ainieucs, ana Gomez of the Yankees by win ning his seventh series victory. Bender s record ot 09 series sinKe outs was overshadowed by Ruf fing's fil. Yankee DiMaggio made 20 put outs, giving a new record for out fielders' chances in a five game series, held by Mike Donlin of the niants in 1905. The eoualiner of three records was accomplished by Rizzuto as he mdae 15 pulouts' m tne live came series with seven of them in one game and three assists in the second inning of the third game. His circuit swat which started Monday's game also equalled the record ot ueorge weaver ot tne wnne tox. Yanks Hold Majority. The 1942 record sheet also lists Bill Dickey for having caught 33 world series games. Highest num ber of home runs for a five game series goes to Charley Keller. Other top performances of the Yankees are the 178 times at bat for the five games, the 18 runs made, which is the most made by a five game series loser, and the using of 20 players m five games, All attendance records were shattered as the largest crowd in the history of the series attended the games at the Yankee stadium Total attendance of 276,717 ex ceeded the five game record set by the Yanks and Giants (1937) which was 238,1' The crowd record of any single previous game was 68,540 and the gate receipts were $265,396. All three games drew crowds which pass these marks. The 69.902 fans and $269,468 of the Sunday game are the high marks of the 1942 series. out some cheerful notes. The play of Maurice Ryan at right end and Taul Darling at fullback was highly effective defensively. The team as a whole played good foot ball, he said, but had the mis fortune of hitting Nebraska on the rebound. "If we learned as much in the Nebraska loss as they did in losing to Iowa we'll be able to make up for that loss," Donels said. "The alertness of Nebraska's pass de fense was a key factor in the Huskers' victory. We could well afford to copy it. STATE Ends Today! now tke Conkaikeri la tho Kof Bowl!
