Nebraska fans will move Into
Memorial stadium Saturday in
numbers reminiscent of prewar
days. A crowd of 25,000 is ex
pected to view Bernie Bierman's
Minnesota Gophers as they meet
the Huskers.
Unfortunatelythe Huskers will
not be up to prewar standards as
they face the powerful Minnesota
attack, but this fact will not hurt
attendance figures. From here it
looks like at least a four touch
down win for the Norsemen,
more if Vic Kulbitski is kept in
action most of the afternoon.
Predictions.
Nebraska and Minnesota have
met on the football field 26 times
prior to Saturday's game, the
Gophers winning 20, losing four
and two games ending in ties. The
39 to 0 win scored by Minnesota
in 1944 is the most decisive in
the series which began back in
1900. Nebraska's last victory in
their rivalry with the Gophers
was chalked up in 1939 when they
upset Minnesota 6 to 0.
Following our usual custom,
here are stabs at the results of

25 grid encounters to be played
this week end. Minnesota over
Nebraska, Iowa State to ruin K,
U's Big Six debut, Kansas State
over Olathe Navy, Missouri over
Southern Methodist and Okla
homa to upset Texas A & M.
Turning from the Big Six, it's
Michigan over Northwestern
Indiana over injury-riddled Illi
nois, Ohio State to open defense
of its Big Ten title with a smash
ing win over Iowa, Wisconsin
over Purdue, and Marquette over
Villanova.
East
In the east Navy and Duke will
stage a rousing battle, but the
midshipmen should come out on
top. Army also faces a southern
conference team when they meet
Wake Forest; the Deacons are
tough, but not tough enough to
disturb Felix Blanchard and com
pany, Penn and Dartmouth open
Ivy League play, with the Quak
ers probably victorious. Holy
Cross over Yale, Pittsburgh over
Bucknell and Temple over NYU
in other eastern games.
Notre Dame should drop
Georgia Tech in an intersectional
tilt, and Michigan State should
follow suit against Kentucky
.North Carolina State is on the
way to football fame in the South
and will overcome Glemson, while
Georgia masters Miami Univer
sity.
Rice to overwhelm Southwest
em, Arkansas over Texas Chris
tian, and Texas over Texas Tech
are probable results of south
western games, and on the coast
California over Washington and
UCLA over College of Pacific end
this week's predictions.
In predictions to date, our tea
leaves and crystal ball have net
ted 20 correct forecasts out of 25
contests for a percentage of .800.
Research on virus diseases will
be initiated at the Wavne JIni
versity college of Medicine this
fall, following acceptance by the
Board of Education of a grant of
$2,500 plus equipment from Dr.
Dupo Freun and the Children's
Fund of Michigan. Dr. Carl E.
Duffy, assistant professor of bac
teriology and clinical pathology,
has been assigned to the project.

17Lettermen
For Gophers
Against UN
Seventeen lettermen including
ten backfield veterans will lead
the Minnesota Gophers when they
meet Nebraska Saturday at Mem
orial stadium. Head and shoulders
above the rest of Bernie Bierman's
crew will be Vic Kulbitski, pul
verising fullback who is back in
Gopher garb after a season with
Notre Dame while he was a mem
ber of the Marine Corps.
With this preponderance of
backfield strength, the Norsemen
base much of their strength on a
powerful offensive game featur
ing Wayne "Red" Williams, elu
tive scat back in addition to Kul
bitski. Merlin Kispert, regular
quarterback on the '44 squad, is
back at the signel calling post,
and the right halfback spot is
amply cared for by three letter
men, John Lundquist, Tom Cates
and Bud Gullickson.
Bierman-coached teams have
always had bruising linemen and
the team to appear Saturday is
no exception. Letterman Dick
Van Dusen anchors the line at
the center spot, with Bill Mar
cotte, right end; Bob Graiziger
and John Kutscheid left guards
are other experienced linemen.
The tackle spots are cared for
by 200 pound Tom Reinhardt, an
other letterman, NROs Larry
Olsonoski and Bob Runkel and
Charles Carlson, largest man on
the squad at 225 pounds. Finish
ing the forward wall are fresh
man John Lundin at left end and
right guard Bob Hanzlik, a dis
charged Marine veteran.
Bierman Back.
Bernie Bierman, head coach of
the Minnesota team, returned to
the Northlands this year after
three years on active duty with
the Marine Corps. Before his de
parture for the service Bierman
coached the Gophers to 63 wins,
12 losses and 5 ties during a 10-
year tenure.
Assisting Bernie are Dr. George
Hauser, head coach during Bier
man's absence, Lowell Dawson,
former Tulane head mentor and
Sheldon Beisc, Minnesota great
during 1933, '34 and '35.
Minnesota has played only one
game this year, flattening Miss
ouri i4-u two weeks ago. Last
week the Big Ten team was idle,
for they were unable to replace
the Iowa Seahawk contest when
the navy station discontinued its
team.
Lyman Serves
UN as Physician
Dr. Edwin Lyman of Lincoln
has been appointed part time
physician at the university, Dr.
L. L. Means, director of student
health department, announced to
day.
Dr. Lyman, who served his in
ternship at Vancouver, British
Columbia, is the son of Dr. Rufus,
Lyman, dean of the College of
Pharmacy at the university. He
will also be physician-on-call for
the Navy ROTC unit on the cam
pus, succeeding Dr. Farl N. Dep-
pen who resigned recently.

NRO's Participate In All
UN Intramural Activities
Navy men stationed on the
campus will add sp"ice to intra
mural competition, following the
decision by the board of intra
mural representatives from all or
ganized houses to allow NROTC
personnel to compete against civil
lan students in all phases of the
intramural athletic program.
Six navy teams have been en
tered in the touch football league
which is now in operation. These
squads will be provided with
games by adding to the present
schedule, rather than setting up
an entirely new schedule.
However, if a navy team wins
first place in any sport the points
and trophy will be awarded to
the civilian team which finishes
nearest the top. The navy men
will receive individual awards as
their reward for athletic excel
lence, for transfers or changes in
personnel would make the award
ing of team trophies impractical.
Each of the six navy teams is
drawn from a platoon of from 25
to 30 men, this strength compar
ing favorably with the manpower
of most organized houses on the
campus.
An ag college team has also
joined the football league, bring
ing the total number of teams
to 23.
In addition to the question of
navy participation, delegates at
the meeting, held Tuesday night
at the coliseum, voted to assess
each house entering the year s
program ten dollars. This money
will be used to defray expenses
incurred during the year, such as
pay for officials, trophies and
other incidentals.
Point awards in all leagues and
individual tourneys will be di
vided among the six highest com
petitors, rather than the first four
as has been the case in past years.
The point system for this year's
broadened program will be re
vised to fit present needs and will
be submitted to the representa
tives for approval at a future
meeting.
Completion of the year's pro
gram was the final proposal con
sidered by the delegates, and
sports definitely to be included
in the program are touch football,
tennis singles, tennis doubles, golf,
basketball, a basketball free throw
tournament, bowling, handball,
swimming, water polo, table ten
nis singles, volleyball, softball, in
door track, outdoor track, horse
shoes and a cross-country turkey
race.
All of these sports are familiar
to students except the last which
is a glorified cross-country race
run on the campus over a three
quarter mile course. This event is
held in November and winners
are rewarded with turkeys, chick
ens and otner similar prizes.
Points won in this event will
count to w a r d the supremacy
award.
Other sports which were dis
cussed include boxing, wrestling,
squash and badminton. No action
was taken on these, but delegates
discussed the advisability of in
cluding them on the schedule.
Final action will be taken at the
next meeting, to be held on Tues
day, October 16, at 7:15 p. m. in
the N room at the coliseum.
Ag College Plans
Party Friday Nile
"All Ag Party," planned for all
students having classes on the
ag campus will be held Friday, at
8:30 p. m. in the Student activities
building.
The program, which is de
signed to help students become
better acquainted, includes folk
dancing, social dancing, mixers,
singing and refreshments. Spon
sored jointly by the faculty and
students at ag college, the party
takes the place of the faculty
reception and the Farmers' For

D. Pearson .
Laments US,
Russia Poser
"The most important problem
America faces today is that of
our relationship to Russia," said
Drew Pearson, prominent Wash
ington columnist, in his address
Wednesday evening.
Mr. Pearson said that our re
lationships with Russia have
never been worse than they are
today, and added that he felt we
should work- hard to improve
those relationships if. we wish to
avoid war.
We worked hard to improve re
lationships with Latin America,
he said, and should do the same
with Russia. Students and pro
fessors could be exchanged, for
one thing. We should get rid of
those in the state department and
elsewhere who ate openly op
posing Russyi, as Lewis Douglas,
who wishes to see Germany re
built as a buffer against Russia.
We should completely cut off the
anti-Russian Franco regime. Fi
nally, we should talk things over
with Russia, as we do with Brit
ain, before we enter major con
ferences. In these and other ways, said
Mr. Pearson, we ghould try our
best to co-operate with the
USSR. If, after we have tried,
Russia does not co-operate, we
should then be firm. There should
be a line drawn beyond which
we cannot go.
President Truman.
Mr. Pearson commenced with
a look at President Truman, who,
he stated, is doing "a pretty good
job." Just now the president is
facing problems which were not
arranged for by his predecessor.
These problems are the London
conference and the general in
dustrial scene. To meet them,
Truman uses a different technique
than did Roosevelt. The new
president's cabinet meetings are
short and snappy, and more re
sponsibility is placed on the cab
inet members.
The strongest members of the
present cabinet, said Mr. Pearson,
are Jckes and Byrnes. Mr. Byrnes
is becoming more and more im
portant. Mrs. Truman is another
person to watch. She represents
the conservative wing of the
presidential family. Mr. Pearson
said that Mr. Truman was also
dangerously intimate with some
big business lobbyists.
Problems Ahead.
From this look at the president
and his cabinet, the speaker
turned to a discussion of the prob
lems they face. That of Mac
Arthur in Japan is one which
Nebraska's Senator Wherry has
helped to create. Mr. Pearson
disagreed with Wherry's deifica
tion of MacArthur, and continued
that MacArthur has his good
points and his bad points, and
among the latter is his refusal
to follow direction from the state
department concerning Japan.
The second great problem is
that of Germany. Eisenhower, has
been absent and his generals
have not been following his in
structions. American big business
interests have encouraged the re
building of German heavy indus
try, which is contrary to plan.
Eisenhower must crack down, Mr.
Pearson claimed.
The third and greatest problem
is that of Russia. With the pass
ing of Roosevelt and Churchill,
America has lost her place as
mediator. We have been directly
opposed to Russia, and primarily
