Reports from other football
camps in the Big Six indicate
that the Huskers were not the
only team to suffer defeat as the
result of faulty pass defense.
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

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.

difference came in the fact that
three of the five tosses the Tex-

Wildcat passes was good for a

ntercepted by the winners.

Nubbins Play
Thursday
Under Lights
After seeing the Nubbins team
in action against the varsity third
string yesterday, Coach Ray
Prochaska has decided to wait un
til the last moment before nam
ing his traveling squad for the
game with Colorado university at
Alliance tomorrow night.
During the late afternoon
scrimmage, the varsity hands
ran up a 50-0 count on the "B"
team, indicating that the Nub
bins' defense, a very apparent
weakness against Iowa State,
still leaves a lot to be desired.
The thirty to thirty-three play
ers making the trip will leave
Lincoln late this evening, arriv
ing in Alliance tomorrow morn
ing in time to be guests of the
Chamber of Commerce at a
luncheon honoring the team. .
Night Game.
Over three thousand spectators
from wesetrn Nebraska are ex
pected to jam the Alliance High
School stadium for the night con
test, which marks the first time in
many years that a Cornhusker
football team has played under the
arc-lights.
Immediately after the game, the
squad will depart for home, reach
ing Lincoln early Friday morn
ing. games will be shown early in the
week following the games, says
Ed Weir, who directs the univer
sity field camera service.
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.
In the first game Colorado beat
Iowa State 13 to 7.
Track Meeting
Husker track coach Ed Weir
has asked all men interested in
going out for track and field,
either indoor or outdoor, to
attend a special meeting to
night at 5 p. m. in the class
room at the field house.
At this time plans for the
season will be discussed and
tentative schedules mapped out.
