The Cornhuskers are not the
only Big Six team to get a trip
to warmer surroundings at the
close of the football season.
While Bernie's boys are In Los
Anreles for a battle with UCLA,
the Kansas State Wildcats will be
facing the University of Arizona
at Tucson. By that time .though,
the idea of travel will be old stuff
to Hobbs Adams' crew.
On November 9 the K States
will fly to San Francisco for a
game with the University of San
Francisco ,and two weeks later
they will be in Albuquerque for a
tilt with the New Mexico Loboes
The Arizona game comes on the
following Saturday, so ,'.e wild
cat players should be sporting
healthy tans when they return to
-Manhattan in December.
Oklahoma s top heavy Win

AMES, Iowa. With Jim Riding
out for the season and, Ed Farni
not expected back before the Ne
braska game, the Iowa State
coaching staff will go to work on
replacements this week.
Riding, one of the nation's best
defensive .centers, had his back
injured at the end of nine minutes
of play against Oklahoma and will
be lost to Coach Mike Michalske
for the rest of the season. A frac
tured vertebra was the result of
his hard play on the first Okla
homa kickoff of the came.
Farni, sophomore quarterback,
had a pair of ribs pulled loose late
in the game and will be out for
aoout two weeks.
Nebraskan Takes Over.
Carter Kokjer, Sidney, Neb.,
and George Schoel, Waterloo,
both reserve centers, will share
the pivot duties. Bob Dennis
Platteville. Wis., and Jim Suther
land, Ames, will be the leaders
for Farni's vacated post. Both are
ireshmen.
Another freshman who seems
certain to see more action is Bill
Chauncey, Webster City fullback.
Hampered by injuries all season.
Chauncey now appears physically
ready to play. His showing
against Oklahoma convinced both
coaches and fans that the former
all-stater is ready to go.
While the Cyclones drill for the
Kansas Mate game Saturday, the
wnacats settle down to hard
workouts too after an open date.
Coach Hobbs Adams sauad. likp
the Cyclones, will be seeking its
iirsi tsig tix win of the year
when Iowa State visits Manhattan.

ski has been at the helm of the
Cyclone football fortunes that his
team has been shut out.
The last time that an Iowa State
eleven has been blanked was in
1942 when Nebraska turned the
trick by a 26-0 count. Thirty-five
games have been played by Ames
teams since then and the Cyclones
have manaaged to score fn every
encounter.
Another Sooner back lurrmed
into prominence in that Cyclone
game, for Oklahoma's fullback,
Eddie Davis, was acclaimed by
the Iowa Staters as being every
bit as good as his teammate, Joe
uoiaing.
When Kansas State and Iowa
State get together this week end
for their tussle at Manhattan to
decide who gets last place in
the conference, six of the seven
leading punters in the loop will
be present.
Bob Dennis, 18 year old Cyclone
booter, currently paces the loop
with an average of 45.8 on his
kicks, just .8 of a yard back of
Art Pollard of Arizona U. who
leads the nation in this depart
ment.
Other Cyclone punters are Ron
Norman and Ron Ferguson, while
the 'Cats can field Karl Kramer,
second ranking Big Six kicker
with an average of 41.2, Vic Jones
and Harold Bryan.
Huskers beware:
The starting backfield for UCLA
against Santa Clara last Satur
day contained three players who
are technically listed as fullbacks.
But all three showed enough
speed to win places in the start
ing lineup and have been terrors
ever since.
Art Steffen, 205 pounder who
runs at left halfback; Jerry Ship
key, 215 pound right half who re
placed t' t injured "Cal Rossi and
Jack Myers, 200 pound fullback
have rolled over the - -osing de
fenders like runaway locomotives.
Seems as if the Cornhuskers are
playing the wrong teams at the
wrong times. Injured stars on
three rival teams yet to be played
have been out or will be out of
the linei. for varying lengths of
time, but all will be set to play
against Nebraska.
tor Missouri regular Fullback
Fred Bouldin " has been benched
with a broken hand for several
games but will be able to go
against the Huskers this week.
Iowa State's Ed Farni sustained
couple of bruised ribs against
Oklahoma and will be idle until
the, Nebraska game on November
lb, while Cal Rossi, Uclan spark
plug who broke his leg against
California, is on the mend and is
expected to be fit and ready by
the time the Scarlet clash rolls
around on November 30.

kers drilled for the Missouri game
Saturday.
Movies of the Indiana game
showed that the Scarlet team was
extremely ragged in these de
partments and such deficiencies
were in a measure-responsible for
the failure of the Nebraska speed
boys to do any effective ground
gaining.

The Vet s Organization had an
easy time collecting their third
straight win, as they downed the
Ag Freshmen, 8-0. The Vets made
all their points in the first five
minutes, and were never seriously
threatened during the game. Wil-

went into the end zone for the

necessary if the Nebraska ban
ner is to continue to wave at the
top of the Big Six race, the Hus
ker coaching staff intends to
give the Scarlet gridders plenty
of work this week.
Tom Novak, pile driving full
back who has developed into one
of the top line backers and ball
carriers in the conference, has
been bothered by a shoulder in
jury which he received in the In
diana game. All other squad
members with the exception of
Cletus Fischer, who is still hob
bled by a knee injury, will be
set to play. Should Novak be out
of the Bengal battle, the Husker
stock would slump sharply, for
the former Omaha South bruiser
has been one of the standouts
both on offense and defense for
Nebraska.
The Huskers' flimsy pass de
fense will not be overlooked by
the Missouri team Saturday. Des
pite the fact that they have no
big name aerial artist, the Tigers
have completed 40 percent of the
passes they have tried, not a bad
average in any man's league.
Any hopes the Huskers have
that Missouri may have an off
day Saturday when the two clubs
get together to provide the fea
ture attraction of the Nebraska
Homecoming festivities should be
forgotten. Against Southern Meth
odist last week the Bengals were
at their worst.
Fumbles and poor punts set
up all of the Mustangs' tallies
and Coach Don Faurot will have
his charges ready to go at top
speed against the Scarlet-clad
squad. .

Who's the greatest
halfback in America?
DO YOU AGREI with Southern football coaches?
They're acclaiming Charley Trippi of the
University of Georgia as the best all-round
halfback they've ever seen. Other players
may outdo him in running, passing or punt
ingbut, say the coaches, Trippi does all
three things better than any other
one player the South has produced.
You won't want to miss this interest
