BACKFIELD IIEFT1ES These three Husker backs pack plenty of poundage to throw at opposing
linemen. They are Tom Novak (13), Omaha South frosh who has apparently clinched the starting
fullback berth; Wally Hopp (16), now on the Nubbins team; and Roy Long (15), Blair halfback who
sparkled in yesterday's scrimmage.

Referees Wanted
The intramural office is still
looking for anyone wishing to ref
eree football games. Since the
season is slated to open Thursday,
all interested persons are asked to
report to the office of Intramnral
Director Lou Means.
Officials will be paid for their
services.
German fugitive Jan Valtin,
whose novel, "Out of the Night,"
topped best seller lists of several
years ago, has released a new
book. Penned about the Philip
pines campaign of the 24th Infan
try division in which he served
as combat reporter, the royalties
from the tale go to families of
division casualties.
With only a week remaining
until the Minnesota opener, the
Huskers ran through a lengthy
scrimmage session yesterday aft
ernoon on the game gridiron at
Memorial stadium.
Coach Bernie Masterson gave
all of the varsity members ample
opportunity to show their wares,
as he matched the A and- B teams
against the Nubbins for the first
hour and then sent the third string
varsity combination into action
against the A team. The second
and fourth varsity outfits con
cluded the afternoon's activity by
battling to a scoreless deadlock.
The first and second varsity
units showed plenty of scoring
power against the outclassed Nub
bins, and ran up a 35 to 0 score
without too much effort.
Hutton Races.
Dick Hutton started the after
noon's proceedings with a rush
when he raced 105 yards to score
after taking the opening kickoff.
Vacanti kicked the point and the
scoring parade was on.
The other scores came as fol
lows: (1) End Jack Hazen blocked a
punt and the ball bounded out
of the end zone for a safety.
(2) Tom Novak bulled over
from the 2-yard line after Hut
ton had moved the ball into scor
ing territory. Vacanti converted.
(3) Jim Myers replaced Hutton
after the Auburn flash was taken
out of the fray with a pulled
muscle, and raced 55 yards to
score. Vacanti's kick was no good.
(4) With the second varsity
team in the game Pat Rooney
scored on a quick opening play
from about 27 yards out. Roy
Long's kick was not good.
(5) Long concluded the scoring
against the Nubbins when . he
chased a punt back 60 yards to
cross the goal line 10 yards ahead
of the nearest pursuer. Jim
Thompson added the extra point.
The first team went back into
action against the Varsity C team
and the two elevens battled to a
S-C tie.. Jnnior Collopy and Dale
Adams sparked the third combi
nation to the score, with Collopy
planging over from the six-inch
mark.
Stung into a retaliation, the
first team roared back to send
Novak across for the counter after
a long pass from Long to Hazen
had caught the C team defenders
unaware.
Following this tussle the second
and fourth teams took the field
but neither team was able to
score. Quarterback Dick Thomp
son engineered the B unit into
scoring position with a lengthy
pass to Bunker. Myers put the
ball on the 8-yard line but the
fourth squad held firm and took
the ball on the 1-yard stripe.
Long Sparkles.
Roy Long, Hutton and Dale
Adams ran well on the offensive
side for their respective teams.
while Vacanti's passing, as usual,
was always a threat.
Among the linemen Center Joe
Partington and Ends Willard
Bunker and Jack Hazen showed
well.

Plans for Rally
Before Game
At Hotel Curtis
Tentative plans have been made
for the many students and other
Nebras" ans traveling to Minne
sota next week, for a pre-game
rally to be held at the Curtis
Hotel, home of the Husker foot
ball team while in Minneapolis.
The rally is to be held at 1 1 :30 in
tlie hotel lobby, and everyone is
urged to attend to help stir up
enthusiasm before game time.
Since the Lincoln Junior Cham
ber of Commerce is sponsoring a
special train to Minneapolis for
the game, a large representation
is expected at the stadium when
the Huskers clash with the Golden
Gophers of Minnesota, and it is
expected that the potential noise
making group will be enough to
really give the team a boost in
the winning direction.
For anyone who plans to attend,
it will pay to see Mr. Lewandow
ski immediately to be sure of ob
taining tickets which will give
them seats with the Nebraska
cheering section.
