Huskers Get
Light-Drills
Propping I.S.
Coach Bernie Masterson's mid
week practice routine was whit
tled down to light .contact work
only Wednesday night as the Hus
kers prepped for their initial Big
Six battle baturday with Iowa
State.
The Husker crew switched to
the Frosh practice fields on the
Coliseum layout when afternoon
rains formed them to abandon the
regular varsity practice confines
in Memorial Stadium.
Checking against further prac
tice injuries, Masterson had his
Scarlet charges running plays
against dummies and had his
backs brushing up on pass defense
against light contact.
The, Nebraska coaching ranks
dipped into the Nubbins lineup
again Wednesday to reinforce the
tackle positions. Edgar Thompson
missed practice because of the flu.
His absence made it necessary to
call up Fred Golan from the "B'
unit.
See Cyclone Formations
Line Coach Tony Blazme and
Backfield Coach Dougal Russell
worked with one group of varsity
members against a Nubbins elev
en running plays from Iowa State
formations.
With due respect for the throw
ing arm of Ron Norman, second
to KU s Ray Evans in passing las
year, the Husker mentors stressed
a tighter aerial defense.
Meanwhile Masterson sent an
other group through Husker for
mations off the "T" in an effori
to improve the Scarlet's ground
attack. I
End Ralph Damkroger and Tac
kle Gene Sim, who came up widhi
ankle injuries in the Minnesota
test, worked out without pads, biit
are being counted on for service
against Abe Stuber's Cyclones
Saturday.
Fischer May See Duty
Although Cletus Fischer con
tinued to watch drills, the former
St. Edward six-man flash should
see duty at Ames.
Masterson continued to work
Bill Moomey and Dick Hutton at
the halfback spots on a number
one unit with Dale Adams at full
and Del Wiegand at quarter.
Damkroger and Pack Pesek
held the end posts, Harold Becker

The second man receives a goose;
the third, a duck; the fourth and

Thiel whose winning time was
5 minutes, 2 and 510 seconds.
Delta Upsilon copped the team
trophy.
and Charlie Tootrood drilled at
tackles, Fred Lorenz and Gene
Wilkins worked at the guard po
sitions while Tom Novak was at
center.
Bob Costello replaced Wiegand
in the first team backfield on
defense.
Carl Samuelson, shifted from
his wing spot to right tackle, con
tinued to work with a second team
line. Another shift to the, tackle
spot saw Charlie Duda, veteran
guard, move out.. Duda missed

fractured wrist.
