THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Page
BY WALT LOOMIS.
Before two thousand loyal Corn
husker' rooters and a sprinkling
of Colorado fans, the Nebraska
"B" team Thursday night racked
ud their second straight win of
the voune season. The score of
18 to 0 does not tell the full story
of the Cornhusker's superiority,
for never were the Buffs threat
ening to score ,and the winners
lost at least four scoring chances
by fumbling. Most of the game
was played in a driving rain,
which made it even more dif
ficult for the smooth functioning
of the Nebraska T formation.
After a scoreless first quarter,
during which the Nubbins accum
ulated a total of 154 yards by
rushing, the second string struck
for two quick touchdowns.
Stroud Paces.
On tb opening play of the sec
ond quarter, Harvey Stroud, gath
erec up a Colorado punt on his
own thirty-six and raced sixty
four yards to pay dirt. Two im
portant blocks paved the way for
Harvey and he side-stepped two
tacklers to go the last thirty yards
by himself.
A few minutes later, a quick
opening play off the T formation
sprung Omaha's Kill Prall loose
for twenty-six yards and the sec
ond counter.
Early in the fourth period,
Quarterback Carl Dilldine threw
a fifty-five yard pass to Darwin
Salestrom who took it on the ten
and loafed across for the third
tally. : .
In the early moments of the
game the Huskers lost one of their
first string halfbacks whjen Bud
Gerlach broke an ankle, a loss
which :will be felt throughout the
seasorn. Before he was hurt, Ger
lach had started a Cornhusker
drive by running forty yards to
the Colorado thirty-three yard
line.
Fumbles Hurt.
After Wally Hopp had picked
up a couple of yards and Del
Wiegand had run to the two on
a reverse around the Buff's left
end, the Huskers looked like a
sure bet for a score. This threat
was ended, however, when Wie
gand fumbled on the two, but Bob
Schreiner and Dale Adams soon
had the ball deep in their oppo
nent territory again. This oppor
tunity alst) was ended by a fumble,
this time by Adams, and the Colo
radoans punted out of the hole.
Then came the fireworks which
saw the Nubbins score twice in
the second period.
Wally Hopp played an outstand
ing game at fullback, and the run
ning of Stroud and Schreiner
again sprakled.
The game, which was arranged
by the Alliance Chamber of Com
merce to bring collegiate football
to the western part of the state,
proved very successful to all con
cerned, despite the adverse condi
tions under which the game was
played.

Blanchard
On the One
BY (I B (I. KM.
The on'hxik wtan't brilliant for the Army
team Hint day.
The arore atood 12 to 7, nith but a quarter
left to play.
So when Tueker tumbled on the 10, and
Davis did the aame.
The crowd In Yankee Stadium began to
leave the name.
Oh, this upstart team from nrnland, not
given a rhanre to win.
Had tuned the Army' confidence to
feelinK of chagrin,
For, two minutes after the (ante had
gotten antler way,
8am acantl showed the boys this was one
ane he'd play.
He faded U his tea, with Hutton la the
flat.
And whipped his arm forward Hutton
caught it, that was that.
Yet still the Army club kept In Its second
team.
Thinking they'd use the second half to
get back oa the beam.
Then Just before the half, with five yards
to the goal,
Novak plunged to the 3 when "Schwartzy"
opened up a ho'.e.
Then in came junior to bull it to the one
And lmg slammed it over juxt before the
gun.
After the intermission, the Huhkers couldn't
un a thing.
And the Army fan In the bleacher again
began to n ag.
Cor whea Tucker parsed to Poole and
lilanrhard ripped the line.
There wa mulling left lor llavi but to
do his best to khine.
He took the ball from Tucker and fading
to his right.
He clreli d the left end and was soon way
out of sight.
And now the shadows begin to lengthen
and the field is pretty dark.
But the fans are again filins bark Into
the park.
It looked like the end for Nebraska, but
they gallantly fonght on,
la hoes that Cadet power would prac
tically be gone.
Bui Blanchard continued to crack the line
and llavis swept Mae tlank.
And I N's hopes were fading rnd their
spirits really sankc
Davis loomed to the five, where Moontry
made the stop.
It appeared the Army was now a cinch
to cop.
With a minute left and Blanchard ready
to go through.
Nebraska wa finally getting what w
supposed to be their due.
Tucker took the ball from crater and
faked it to the half.
Then handed It to Blanchard bat he
couldn't stand the gaff.
And when the ret grablird the ball and
et it on the around.
It rested on the three and from the stands
came not a sound.
Once more the gray-clad Army 'men, with
dritoerat ion's fire.
Charged the smaller Hu-ker line and made
a hole anyone would aamirr.
So Blanchard lurched ahead, bat his foot
slipped and he fell.
From the umpire, "Third and two!" from
his teammates, "Aw, Hell!"
Agala the tiring Army erew charged the
gallant Husker line.
But the Cadet barkfleM got muddled, aad
someone missed a sign.
So Tucker darked his head aad pushed
to the one.
Still l neconils maybe the "Great Ma
chine" wata't really done.
Army had a hurried huddle aad trotted
to their posts.
They had a chanri a good one and they
woman , oK
t4i harked the alraals tensely, ine
hall went off to "Hoc.".
And the 'Husker line braced Itself for the
long expected shock.
Ab! Somewhere ta this favored land, the
son Is shlntac aright.
And somewhere people laugh aad some
where heads are ngni.
And somewhere ... bat watt I W hat's
ihni slill noon the one?
Why it the footbalK aad on It Samael-
last Moscow concert, he was
showered with gifts, including em
broidery and linen for his wife
and Crimean wines for his mother,
who was born in Russia. As had
been his practice for all overseas
wartime appearances, Menuhin
declined any fee for his concerts,
which were sold out before any
announcement had been made! In
stead he suggested that proceeds
go to' the Soviet Red Cross.
Russian people have an intense
desire, Menuhin feels, to hear
artists from the outside world so
that they can compare their ar
tists with those from other coun
tries. The violinist found that Mos
cow audiences enjoyed tense, pas
sionate music most, and that they
were almost the direct opposite of
Paris audiences.
Student season tickets, selling
for $5, are now available at the
offices of the Union and the
School of Music. Sales at the
Union will continue as long as the
supply lasts, according to Pat
Lahr. Reserved seat season tick
ets will sell at $9 for main floor
and balcony and $12 for loge seats
are on sale at the inner box of
fice of the Stuart theater where
all concerts will be held except
that of Menuhin vhich will take
place at the coliseum. I
World Series
Opens Today
In St. Louis
Today the World Series will get
under way at Sportsman Park, St.
Louis. The participants in sport's
most colorful pageant will be the
Boston Red Sox of the American
League and the St. Louis Cardin
als of the National League.
Betting Commissioner James J.
Carroll has established the Red
Sox as overwhelming favorites.
You get $7 for belting $20 on the
Red Sox.
The first game will be at St.
Louis, as will be the second. Then
the teams will go to Boston to
play the next three if necessary.
If sixth and seventh games are
required, they will take place in
St. Louis.
Probable Pitchers
Probable opening pitchers are
Brecheen or Pollet for the Card
inals and Hughson or Harris for
Boston. Eddie Dyer of St. Louis
will probably follow up with
Dickson and maybe Munger in
the third and fourth contests.
Manager Joe Cronin of the Red
Sox will use Ferriss and either
Dobson or oJhnson in the first
two games at Boston.
Because of Boston's overwhelm
ing strength at all posts, they must
be considered as heavy 'favorites.
In only two positions, first base
and third, do the Cards outshine
the Beantowners. Stan Musial is
much better than ponderous but
hard hitting Rudy York. Bob
Doerr jmd Johnny Pesky make up
thhe best double play combination
in the majors today, and both are
good hitters. George Kurowski at
third rates over any third-sacker
the Sox can muster.
Williams, Dom DiMaggio and
Moses are far above the Cardinals
outfield of Slaughter, Moore and
Sisler or Dusak. Boston's battery
can resist anything the Card's
pitchers and catcher can offer.
Garagiola of the Cards rates as a
futuure star, but as yet he is too
inexperienced.
Seminar Questionaires
Members of the seminar
committee for Religious Em
phasis Week are passing out
questionnaires to find out what
topics students would be in
terested in hearing discussed
at seminars during Religious
Emphasis Week, according to
Martha Clark, chairman of the
committee. Students are to fill
ut the questionnaires and
turn them in at the booth in
the Union, the booth in So
cial Science building, the YM,
the YW, the Methodist Stu
dent House, or the Presbyteri
an Student House.
