With I
Since I have none too much
space today, and have so much to
talk about, I will discuss a sport
that is irrelevant, and may I add,
not too often thought about or
discussed. In fact, you might as
well not read this to begin with,
because the whole thing is so very
useless.
However, there are some sports
enthusiasts who will find some
amount of solace in delving into
this little discussion; so, ready or
not (God bless you), here I go.
Have you tried strolling casu
ally into the Corn Crib, picking
out che best looking girls (or sol
diers), sitting next to them, and
ordering a Crib lately? I know
what some of you are thinking al
ready, but that is not the nature
of this column. Well, after what
began to run into hours, the waiter
brings the delightful tid-bit to the
booth. You look at it longingly,
that delectable little browny snug
gled away in a heap of creamy
vanilla ice cream, just floating in
oozy chocolate syrup. Your mouth
waters, hastily you reach for your
spoon.
It is here.dear reader, that the
sport begins. You sink the spoon
into the ice cream, it yields with
delicate expectancy. Nervously
vou lean forward as the dirk
reaches the browny. And plunk!
Yes, a week old browny is a rare
sporting treat for any willing to
accept the challenge. It will
and is, a
to finish, demanding all of the
athletic skill, contesting patience,
and intestinal fortitude of the best
of sporting enthusiasts.
Intcrmurals
Open
The Intermural sports Inter-
fraternity football playoffs got off
with a bang last Thursday. Com
pus enthusiasm ran high, and
from the results of the games
played, it looks like a wide open
aTid rough season.
In the opening game, the ATO's
squeezed by with a narrow 12-6
margin over the Betas. It was a
hotly contested game from start
to finish, the winning score being
soundly contested.
Outstanding for the winners was
G. Thompson, who scored both of
the winning touchdowns. Korf
and Dvorak were also outstanding
on the ATO team. John Ander
son and Penney were stellar
shiners for the losers, Penney
making the Beta's lone tally.
The second game, between the
Beta-Sigs and the Phi Gams, was
a little more onesided, with the
Beta-Sigs running over the Gams
18 to 0. The Beta Sigs displayed
a fine passing and running attack
be. which marked them for the team
tough battle from start to beat in the tournament.
JOHN C. BENTLEY.
AMES. Ia.. Oct. 16 Although
the Cyclones beat the Nebraska
boys 27 to 6, it was an exciting
game from start to finish. Tippee,
of Iowa State, and Buzz Hollins,
of the Scarlet, really showed a
small crowd of 6,000, two distinct
and exciting brands of ball. It
was Tippee's finesse and passing
that won for the Cyclones, and
Hollins crashing runs, and drives
that kept the Huskers in the
game. The game was a wild and
harem-scarem affair all the way
through, with both teams fumbling
at crucial points, constantly keep
ing the crowd on its feet.
Ewin. second string end took
the Cyclone kicKoff on his own
28 yard line and ran it up to the
34, to open the game. A twenty
yard run Hansen was called back
on an offside penalty, and then
Nebraska started a series of
fumbles that lasted almost all of
the first half. Clark Beaver
couldn't get a hold of bad pass
from center, and the Iowans took
over on the Nebraska 25 yard
line. It looked like a sure score
for the Cyclones, but a penalty and
an intercepted pass by Hansen
gave the ball to the Huskers back
up on their own 34. Apparently
over-anxious, the Huskers lost the

ball again, when Clark Beaver1
fumbled on the 42 yard line of
Iowa with the Cyclones taking
over, j
After forcing the Iowans to punt
to the Nebraska 25 yard line, the
Huskers again fumbled the ball,!
this time on their own 18 yard
line. The Cyclones recovered, and
were not to be denied a score
this time, regardless of the fine
play of the Husker line personified
in the person of Jerry Jacupke,
ho played a whale of a defen
sive game from the starting
whistle till the final gun. Tippee
took over the tiller, and went for
six and one around end and
through the middle. One the next
play, faking a pass, Tippee snuck
over tackle for Iowa States initial
tally. The attempted conversion
was missed, and the score stood,
Iowa State 6, Nebraska 0.
After receiving the kickoff, Ne
braska started driving down field,
but lost the ball again to the
Iowans on a fumble. This time
Iowa State recovered on the Ne
braska 34, but before they could
start any sort of a drive, Haz
zard, Nebraska guard, pounced on
a Cyclone fumble in an exchange
that netted the Huskers one yard
to their own 35.
Nebraska then staited what
looked like a touchdown drive,
with a flat pass from Wilkins. who
was playing his last game for the
Scarlet, to Hollins being nullified
by a penalty after Hollins had run
the ball all the way down to the
16 of Iowa State. Another pen
alty of five yards, and an inter
cepted pass gave the ball to the
Cyclones on the mid-field strip.
Here it was Iowa State's turn to
almost score. A long thiity-thrw
yard pass from Tippee and intend
ed for Wagner, ex-Husker, was
muffed by the. end who was out
in the clear and in scoring posi
tion. Two trys at the line netted
the Iowans nine yards, hut on the
next play, signals were mixed, and
Nebraska took over on the Midfit Id
strip.
Sparked by big, bruising Buzz
Hollins, the Huskers began what
ended in a 50 yard touchdown
march. On the first play, Wilkens
went on a quarterback sneak over
center for 5, and on the next play.
Hollins taking a lateral from Wil
kins went all the way to the Iowa
38 yd. line for a first down. H1
line then drove for 5 more, and
two more sneaks by Wilkins put
the ball on the 29, where it was
fourth and about inches to go. Wil
kins then fliped a lateral to Hnn
sen who went around end and into
"pay-dirt" standing up.
