WWh Hog fa Hopes
Coach Potsy Clark's Huskers will be out to overthrow
the mighty Gophers from Minnesota when they tackle the
Giants of the North in Minneapolis Saturday.
The Huskers have high houes of upsetting the Goph
ers, a task which should prove very difficult on Minnesota's
home grounds.
If history has any bearing on the case, the odds should
favor Minnesota in its twenty-ninth meeting with Nebras
ka's grid forces Saturday in Memorial Stadium.
Gophers Hold Edge
The Gophers have come off vic
torious in 23 of these engage
ments with two resulting in ties
and four decisions going to the
Cornhuskers since the series was
inaugurated in 1900.
In the 15 games played between
Minnesota and Nebraska five have
ended in shutout triumphs for the
Maroon and Gold. Only twice has
the Cornhusker crew scored more
than one touchdown against Min
nesota. lhat was last season
when the score was 28-13. Ne
braska has scored 75 points
against Bierman and Hauser di
rected Minnesota elevens lor an
average of five points per game.
Bernie Bierman is inclined to
take the historical background of
this series with a grain of salt
Warns Bierman, "They're just as
big as we are through the line
and have more weight and speed
in the backfield. It will be i
tough game."
Will Experiment
Coach Bernie Bierman fs ex
pected to do considerable experi
menting in Saturday's clash with
Nebraska. The Gopher mentor is
not however taking the Huskers
too lightly and if Nebraska's
squad has anything to say about
it the game will be plenty tough.
Nebraska players were in high
spirits as they finished their final
practice in preparation for Min
nesota. As Coach Potsy Clark put
it, "As long as they only allow
eleven men on the field we're not
worried."
Bierman will probably test sev
eral sophomore players in Satur
day's game. Jerry Mitchell,
soph end, and Jack Sturdevant,
hard running back, were working
with the Minnesota varsity this
week. Inasmuch as Lefthalfbacks
Ev Faunce and Harry Elliott are
seniors this year, Sturdevant's
progress is of vital concern for
Bill Bye and Dick Lawrence can
not possibly carry this load next
season.
Conch Potsy Clark will probably
start Del Wiegand, Cletus Fischer,
Tom Novak and Bill Mueller in
the backfield. The forward wall
will include Ralph Demkroger
and Bob Schneider, ends; Herb
Reese and Jim Goderey, tackles;
Mike Diuiase and Darwin Sale

center.
