Co-sufferers 'along with the Cornhuskers' Bernie Masterson were- Hobbs Adams of Kansas State and Mike Michalske of Iowa State, so it seems that scrub passers at all three schools will get plenty of action against the varsity in practice sessions this week. The statistics of the Kansas State Hardin Simmons battle present an interesting story. Har-din-Simmons, the winning team, attempted 16 passes, completed only five, yet amassed a net gain of 110 yards via the airlanes. Kansas State, on the other hand, connected on nine of 24 ef forts for a gain of 93 yards. The Close .Contests Mark IM Grid Tilts Monday Some keen competition marked Monday's intramural touch foot ball games, as six more games were played. In what may be the closest game of the season, Pioneer Co-op nosed out Beta Sigma Psi, 1-0 in an overtime contest. According to touch football rules, ties are played off in a se ries of 4 extra downs for each team. The team gaining the most yardage is the winner. Pioneer Co-op made 5 yards in their 'at tempts. Then the Beta Sigs took over and gained 4 yards on two line plays, only to have a third down pass intercepted by Holmes of Pioneer, thus ending the game. Bob Kellrr paced Delta Tau Delta to an ! .) victory over Sigma Alpha Mu. lie flipped a pass to Mulvaney who caught it after it bounded out of an oppoent's hands and rambled on to a touchdown. Sigma Chi turned in the day's high score with a 19-0 win at the expense of Theta Xi.

The Nebraska two-mile squad is idle this week, but Coach Weir is readying plans for on 880-yard relay between the halves of the Husker-Wildcat struggle. With a number of promising 220 and 440 men drilling each night, the Husker mentor is anxious to give them a taste of competition. Although the Iowa State foot ball team was beaten by North western, 41-9, the consensus of opinion among coaches and news men indicated that the .Cyclones looked - better than they had against Colorado a week earlier.
