Third Win.
The win was Nebraska's third
of the year and gave the Huskers
a scoring warmup before the
Iowa clash next week. The Hawk
eyes downed Minnesota yesterday
and will provide the Huskers with
plenty of opposition on the 24th.
Returning to the track meet of
yesterday, the Nebraska first
string played only the first quar
ter, and by the time 15 minutes
had gone by, the Huskers had a 21
to 0 lead. No matter what com
bination of backs Potsy Clark
threw at the Sodaks, the visitors
were unable to check the offen

Moore scored twice in the brief

Harrington exhibited plenty of
drive as he fought his way over

a blocked kick and driving across
for the extra point.
Extra Points.
Bill Sloan added four extra
points in early stages of the con
