It's time for another inspec
tion of the tea leaves so here
are a few opinions on the nation's
football games this weekend:
Army vs. Notre Dame In
juries to Johnny Lujack may
Hamper the Irish cause, Army
players have played together for
a long time, Davis and Blanchard
will be hard to stop. Despite all
of these factors this vote goes to
Notre Dame. Coach Frank Leahy
has too much reserve strength.
Besides, my middle name is
Patrick.
Oklahoma vs. Kansas After
last week's surprising perform
ance the Jayhawks will not be
taken lightly by the Sooners.
Ready, and forewarned the Okla
homa gridders should push aside
the Kansas menace and join Mis
souri at the top of the Big Six
with an undefeated standing .
Iowa State vs. Drake The
Cyclones won a game last week
and liked the joy of victory.
Coach Mike Michalske's boys
should experience the same joy
this week when they subdue the
Bulldogs. Both teams have had
disappointing -seasons, but this
lntra-state rivalry will bring out
the best in both clubs.
Missouri vs. Colorado After
watching Lloyd Brinkman, Bob
Hopkins and Howie Bonnett make
the Huskeis look foolish on oc
casion last week we cannot see
how the Rocky mountain crew
can stop them. Altho the Buffs
will put up a stern battle, the
Bengals should breeze through
wth a win.
Kansas State vs. San Francisco:
It's a nice trip for the 'Wildcats
since the game will be played in
San Francisco, but the Dons will
add another loss to the K-Staters'
string of defeats.
Iowa vs. Wisconsin The
Hawkeyes failed to come through
against the Illinois team hut they
ought to get back in winning
column when the Badgers pro
vide the opposition.
Northwestern vs. Indiana Pete
Pihos, Ben Raimondi and the rest
of the Hoosiers will be a
formidable barrier to the Purple
title hopes. Northwestern lost a
wild-scoring affair a week ago
and will be determined to win

Scrimmage Sessions.
But more than likely it is sim
ply that victory tasted so good
they have no intention of being
caught napping by Drake when
the two teams meet here Satur
day. Just the same practice ses
sion spectators have been known
to wince a bit themselves on see
ing and hearing the contact work
being dished out by Coach Mike
Michalske this week.
While backs and ends have been
drilling: on smooth-functioning: of
fensive performances the linemen
have been shooting the works at
each other. When properly aroused
the whole squad .is thrown to
gether In a regular scrimmage
session. The results of those scrim
mage sessions have made Cyclone
fans hopeful of stopping Drake
for the thirty-first time in the
series.
Part of the reason for the
rugged sessions is the conviction
tha Drake is better than its .333
season indicates. Scouts and offi
cials echo that thought Drake is
fai tougher than its 'showing this
year would indicate. With a lay
off last week, the Bulldogs are ex
pected to enter Saturday's contest
in the best physical shape of the
year.
this one. Looks from here like
they'll succeed.
Minnesota v. Purdue At last
Bernie Bierman's charges get a
chance to hang up a conference
victory. The only games the
Gophers have won this year have
been against Nebraska and Wy
oming, and Saturday's contest
should be No. 3.
Michigan vs. Michigan State
Michigan has too much of every
thing for the Spartans who have
lost key performers due to in
juries.
Ohio State vs. Pittsburgh It's
the Buckeyes' turn to tame the
once-proud Panthers. The Big
wine aggregation should become
the fourth member of the con
ference to accomplish the feat.
Penn vs. Columbia Both teams
were upset last week, the Quakers
losing to Princeton and the Lions
bowing to Cornell, so this game
snouia De a fircelv contested
duel. Lou Little's team has
slowed down from its early sea
son pace, hence the Pennsylvani-
ans ngure to win.
oeorgia Tech vs. Navy-Too
bad for the Middies. They've
got a terrific schedule this sea
son but not the team to match.
The Engineers whipped Duke lasf
week while Navy was battling
JNOtre uame and should have an
easy time with the Annapolis
eleven.
Rice vs Arkansas Here's a pos
sible upset but we stick with Rice
even though the Razorbacks will
be out to spill the Southwestern
conference leaders.
UCLA vs. Oregon The Uclans
are rolling toward that Rose Bowl
bid and will tolerate no inter
ference from the Webfeet. Jake
Leight is a fine back but Ore
gon will need more than he can
provide against the unbeaten
Bruins.
Alabama vs. Louisiana State
The Crimson Tide has been
backed up by Georgia and .Ten
nessee but should win this one

Two Mile Team
The Husker two mile squad lost
Its second straight race Thursday
afternoon as Kansas State eked
out a 26-29 decision at Memorial
Stadium.
At first the race was awarded
to Nebraska, but Don Morrison,
who came in on winner Bobby
Ginn's heels, was disqualified
because of an incident on the far
turn of the second lap. At that
time,. Morrison was in third place,
but in attempting to pass a Kan
sas State runner, he caused the
man to stumble. This won the
race for K-State, otherwise UN
would have won 24-31.
Slow Time.
Ginn won the race in the com
paratively slow time of 10:26, as
a blustering wind slowed down
everyone's time. Don Borthwick
of Kansas State was second with
a time of 10:34 PYilln7in Rnrth.
