LAST WEEK'S RESULTS.
Texas 42, Missouri 0.

Colorado 13, Iowa State 7.
Big Six stock took a beating
over the weekend, as conference
football teams made their first
starts. Chief reason for the drop
in conference overall caliber was
the thumping that Dana Bible's
Texas University team handed
. Missouri.
V Don Faurot's charges, rated by
one and all as the team to beat in
the Bis Six, took a 42-0 pasting.
The margin of victory was the
surprising feature of the game
which produced a statistical odd
ity in that Missouri racked up 16
first downs compared to 14 for
the Longhorns. However, first
downs do not pay off in the scor
ing column.
With Iowa State losing 13-7 to
the University of Colorado, the
Kansas Jayhawks were the only
Big Six team to keep out of ,the
losing column. George Sauer's
eleven played to a scoreless stale
mate against Texas Christian Sat
urday night in Kansas City.
Prospects for an improvement
in conference prestige this week
are not too rosy.
Poor Sooners.
Oklahoma walks right into a
buzz-saw as they' open their 1946
campaign against Army, probably
the nation's top team. No one
expects a Sooner victory a de
cently close score would be a
moral triumph for Coach Jim
Tatum's boys.

In the wake of Saturday's
games: Altho Nebraska was not
in action last week, several former
Husker footballers had an after
noon of gridiron activity compet
ing for other schools.
Henry Rohn, one of the full
backs on Nebraska's Rose Bowl
squad fullbacked the University of
Wyoming team to a 7-0 win over
Colorado State, assisted by Bobby
Cooper, former Husker back who
hails from Omaha North. Cooper
tossed his left-handed passes for
the Scarlet during the 1942 sea
son. Bill Perdew, Hastingsand Bill
Hill, Arapahoe, of the '44 team are
playing for state colleges this sea
son. Perdew is now a member of
Coach Larry Owens' squad at
Hastings college, while Hill is run
ning in the backfield for McCook
junior college.
The news that Derald Lebow,
star Oklahoma halfback, will be
ou for the season calls to mind
some of Lebow's doing during the
1944 pigskin campaign.
It was in the Missouri game that
Lebow, who had been benched on
doctor's orders because of a heavy
cold, got into two plays and scored
a touchdown on each attempt.
Coach "Snorter" Luster waited
each time until the Sooners were
in scoring position and then sent
in Lebow to carry the ball across
the goal. The game ended in a
21-21 tie.
Don't let worries about white
shirts get you down. Think of the
4 predicament of Mike Dibiase;
tackle on the Nebraska football
team.
Mike, national A.A.U. heavy
weight wrestling champion, has
been having more than his share
of trouble.
After he was separated from the
navy he began trying to restock
his civilian wardrobe, but he has
not been able to get any shirts.
The difficulty: Mike wears a
shirt with a 20-inch collar.
Iowa State and Northwestern
have a football series which be
gan in 1895, but this week's game
vill be only the fourth meeting
between the two schools.
After the Cyclones' 36-0 win in

IM Meeting
Held To Plan
Year's Card
Intramural athletics came into
focus last night as the representa
tives of campus organizations held
their first meeting of the ear un
der the direction of Louis Means
at the Coliseum.
Stressing the return to normalcy
of intramural competition at the
university, Mr. Means declared
that the aim of the program was
for a wide range of activity in
which every student would find
many events to challenge his in
terest. All events are organized
competitively and none will be
compulsory.
Permanent Trophies.
Permanent trophies will be
given for each of the first three
places in each sport with awards
also to be given to the winners
in the individual tourneys. A tro
phy will also be given to the or
ganization which displays the best
interest and persistency in the ac
tivities regardless of their posi
tions in the standings. An award
also will be made to the outstand
ing manager.
Topics brought up for discus
sion at the meeting stressed that
each organization be familiar with
all rules and regulations and that
in the event of a post-poned con
test, notice be turned in at least
a day ahead of time or earlier.
Two motions were unanimously
passed by the council as the Co
ops were passed into the league
provided they adhere to the same
regulations concerning member
ship as the fraternities and a fif
teen dollar fee was made on each
organization to defray expenses
for referees at the football and
basketball contests.
Each organization will have the
privilege of obtaining any equip
ment they will need for practice
from the university.
