Nubbins Play 0 0 Tic On Mud Field Playing on the rain soaked col iseum grounds, the Nubbins and University or Nebraska Fresh men battled to scoreless deadlock Thursday afternoon. Coach Pop Klein's Junior Husk ers, running in two separate units, clicked in the early stages of the game and marched to the varsity 13 five yard line, but lost the ball on downs as the Nubbins forward wall stiffened.

Halfbacks Jerry Ferguson and Don Bloom paced the Frosh's early period drive with assist ance from Fullback Walt Spell- man and Quarterback Dutch Meyer. Quarterback Russ Hale and End Harry Fox were late reporting for service with the Nubbins, but sparked the B team thru the sec ond half of play. ' Coach Ray DeBolt's reserves be hind the effective running of the speedy Harry McGinnis -controlled the play thruout the third canto, but couldn't muster a scoring thrust. Halt Late Drive. After recovering a blocked punt late in the fourth period, Spell man's long pass carried to the Nubbins' 18 yard line. The ad vance was thrown in reverse, however, by a hard charging B line.
