DAILY NEBRASKAN
. . .
I
By Norria Anderson ; 4 J, ' j
I (Sports Editor) ; ' y :
A stumpy follow with horn-rimmed specs just poked his
nose into our Underwood and murmured: "I'm all for organiz
ing a temporary Thank God It's Sunday Club for these Corn
huskers." ,
When asked for an explanation, our fat friend said that
he referred to the pending Seahawk-Cornhusker struggle. We
call him a dissenter and sic our staff on him. Fishbaek and
Sherman wax their hot wrath on the dissenter, leaving him
to bouncing Hobby McNutt for finishing touches.
Gone completely are the last remnants of Nebraska's once
beaten '40 stonewalling phalanx -which waited so long for that
persoif-to-person telephone call from Pasedena. Confronted by
a chronic shortage of manpower, likeable Glenn Presnell is
weathering the biblical cycle of the second year of Husker
drouth.
Only three victories in eight starts lie on the winning side
of the liusker ledger as this goes to press. Coming up for exe
cution tomorrow is the tilt with the three-quarters pro Sea
hawks, victors over Notre Dame and Michigan. One week be
hind on the Pitt Panther greensward lies the sole Husker hope
of finishing the eamnaicn in fifty-fifty style.
ly virtue of one grand coup, one victory over a favored
opponent, could those Huskers redeem themselves. Only fa
vored opponent left on the slate is the Seahawk eleven so the
redeeming measure nuist be taken Saturday. Kansas State's
hapless club winds up the campaign a week later here in
Lincoln.
' No easy sledding along the schedule trail proceeds the
Seahawks into battle with the Huskers. Sikh clubs as Indiana,
Michigan, Notre Dame, and Minnesota have tread the Bierman
club's schedule thus far.
Despite the beef Presnell inserted in the Husker backfield
for the fray, the starting Seahawk club sports a 12-pound team
weight advantage. Some wit figured that the average SeahawE
is 25 years old and posseses one child.
Center Oorge Svendsen and Fullback Ed Jankowski each
performed five years in pro ball after finishing their college
careers at Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Five Huskers Left At Home
As Team Leaves For Game
Nebraska's grid eleven departed
for the grid wars at Iowa City
this morning:, prepared to meet the
powerhouse Iowa Seahawks Sat
urday in the toughest tilt of the
campaign.
Five Husker first-string per
formers were left at home as the
team boarded the train. Injured
halfbacks Al Zikmund, Marvin
Athey, Henry Reichel will be left
along with Jack Hazen and Jerry
Kathol.
Seahawks hold a ten-pound
weight advantage along the line
and support an eight-pound back
field advantage. Game captains
for the Huskers will be Bill Bryant
and Jerry Kathol.
