land College last Saturday the
iTniversitv of Nebraska B team
wound up its 1946 schedule with
rvord of four wins and one tie.
The onlv blemish on the slate
was the 14-14 stalemate with
Kansas State in the return game
at Manhattan.
The Hnskers opened the season
In impressive fashlan by thoroly
trouncing the Iowa State B team
by S3 -ft. In this tame several men
pave notice that they were going
to be heard from a gooa i
it-inr th rrid campaign, and
most f them matched their first
game accompolishments in "
Inwlnr rames. .
Harvey Stroud, Wally Hopp,
Bob Schreiner, Mickey Allen, and
Bob Schneider scored the touch
downs in the Cyclone rout and
then went on to become the main
stays of the Nubbins team in later
contests. Stroud, the North Platte
thin man, and Hopp, younger
brother of the Boston Braves
Johnny Hopp and Harry "Hip
TMtv Hood, both advanced to the
varsity squad and are now on the
west coast preparing to meet un
beaten and untied UCLA Satur

At Alliance. Nebraska, the Nub
bins outscored Colorado Univer
sity's jayvees 18-0 before a crowd
of 3,000 western Nebraskans. Fol
lowing this victory came a 25-14
conauest of Kansas State, the 14
14 tie with the Wildcats, and the
27-0 walloDine administered to
Midland in the finale.

For the last time this season,
exceDt for the innumerable bowl
games, we will take to the type
writer in an effort to predict a iew
winners in football games slated
for Thanksgiving and Saturday,
November 30.
Nebraska vs. University of Cal
ifornia at Los Angeles With the
squad at full strength, the Huskers
would be decided underdogs, but
in the team's present condition the
chances for a win seem to be
almost ruL
There's always the chance of an
upset, however, and the Uclans
have been held to two touchdowns
three times this season. If the Ne
braska speedsters, Dick Hutton
Cletus Fischer and Bill Moomey
could break loose Bernie's boys
might have a chance of toppling
the west coast giants.
Missouri vs. Kansas A crucial
Big Six tussle, this game will de
termine which teams will share
first place with Oklahoma. Ray
Evans is running in top form and
he should be the difference be
tween the two old rivals.
Kansas State vs. Arizona The
Wildcats dropped to New Mexi
co by a one touchdown margin
last week, and the Arizona eleven
is considered even stronger. Coach
Hobbs Adams' crew will have to
end its season content with one
victory.
Arkansas vs. Tulsa Another top
notch Turkey Day clash, bring
ing together two of the south-
west's best. Sparked by Clyde
Scott and directed by wily John
Barnhill, the Razorbacks get this
vote by the narrowest of margins
over Clyde Leforce and his Golden
Hurricane mates. .
Georgia vs. Georgia Tech The
big game for the Bulldogs. After
a slow start the Engineers are
coming fast and will give the
nation's No. 3 club a rough time
before succumbing by a touch
down. Oklahoma vs. Oklahoma A. & M.
Jim Tatum's Sooners should not
have too much trouble with the
Aggies, although the intense feel
ing between the two schools will
keep the Cowpokes on edge.
Army vs. Navy The end of a
perfect season for the Cadets.
After three years of dominating
the football secen this looks like
the last unquestioned win for the
West Pointers. Davis and Blan
chard will be wanting to finish
up in style. Army by three touch
downs. Texas vs. Texas A. & M. Dana
Bible puts in his last Saturday as
coach of the Longhorns and his
Orange and White warriors will
be determined to make his last
appearance a winning effort.

battle last week, it is too much to
hope for the U.S.C. team to come
through against the high and
mighty Irish.
Cyclone Cage
Quintet Opens
Against Grinne
AMES, Iowa. Louis Menze,
Iowa State college basketball
coach, isn't certain which five
men he'll start against Grinnell
Dec. 2 but that they will have
plenty of experience is certain.
With more than six weeks of
drills behind him, the veteran
Menve is still not able 4 select
a starting five for the opener. He
starts out by naming Jim Myers,
1945 all-Big Six forward from
Sioux City and one of the great
est scorers in Cyclone history. And
from there every night sees a
change in the top five. Only man
of the top 12 not yet considered
for a starting spot is Ron Norman
of Fairfield, and Norman reported
last Tuesday.
So far, in addition to Meyers,
Roy Wedhe, Holstein; Rollin
Kuebler, Carroll; and Jim Buck,
Ames; have been at the forwards.
Ray Wehde, Holstein, just re
turned from the hospital, was in
the running before his recent ap
pendectomy. At center Menze has been alter
nating Jim Jessen, Everly, and
I -co Schneider, Rock Island, 111.
The guards, not counting Norman,
have been Bill Block, Muscatine,
all-Big Six star in 1945; Lloyd
Kester, Ames; John Sheperd,
Gary, Ind.; and Charles Grado
ville, Des Moines.
Former Ilusker.
The top 12 men are all letter
winners. Schneider won his letter
at Nebraska while Sheperd let
tered at Miami, Ohio, university.
All the others won letters at Iowa
State.
The rest of the varsity squad.
the men most likely to represent
the Cyclone "B" team includes
Ed Anderson, LaGrange, 111.; Gav
lord Anderson, Council Bluffs:
Don Ferguson. Ottumwa: Bob
McLuen, Ashton; Dean Norman,
Fairfield; Don Paulsen, Huxley;
Therol Petersen. Clinton: Harland
