Wednesday, October 19, 1949 THE DAILY NEBRASKA?? PAGE 3 A I 5 :;.r.j..- 0 Blight spot of the Cornhusker scrimmage with the freshmen Tuesday night was the varsity's o fi'e nse. Contrary to last Saturday's game with Penn State, the Hunk ers were able to get that spark that sets their offense on fire. Bill Mueller mas the bright spot of the scrimmage, breaking loose for a couple of spectacular runs. One of them would hare been railed hack had it been in a regu lar game because the varsity was guilty of illegal use of their hands. Passer Fran Nagle was suited up in complete pads, but Glass ford did not use him in scrim mage. Nagle is still nursing a bruised hand. Gerry Ferguson was out, but he was not in pads. He injured his knee and was not able to work out. Reynolds Works T The freshmen, using Okla homa's split-T formation offense, had the Varsity reeling. Bobby Reynolds woiked the T for the freshmen. Reynolds proved to be very adept in the formation as he out-foxed the Varsity time and time again. Glassford was very much con cerned about the way the Frosh went through his boys. The Corn husker head coach tried several different defensive formations, but was not able to find one that could definitely stop 1he Frosn. In the offensive department. Harry Meginnis shared honors with Muelier in breaking away from scrimmage. Meginnis. fleet- looted trackman, consistently broke loose for long gains. Fergie Leads Rashers Fer guson, who has been moved lo fullback, has the leading rush ing average, 8.1 yards per try. Mueller has proved to be the workhorse for the Glassford gang, grinding out 248 yards in 57 trips with the ball. Ron Clark, Ravenna's contribu tion to the "Cornhusker football team, leads the Huskers in three departments and is tied with Don Bloom for scoring honors with 12 points. Clark has a 34.4 yards punt av erage and has returned six punts tor 161 yards. His four kickoff returns have netted 142 yards one was 3 00 yards for a touch down.

The Oklahoma-Nebraska game at Memorial Stadium will share the Big Seven's interest this week with the Missouri-Iowa State ! game at Ames. Incidently. neither home team will be considered the favorite in fact, they will both be decided underdogs. Iowa State is given an outside chance to dump the Ti gers, but possible as it is, it isn't very probable. ' OU Bowl-Bound Oklahoma, who is almost cer- ! tain to retain the conference I crown along with an invite to the Sugar Bowl, is expected to breeze through the Huskers in the same manner that they did last year j when the Sooners walloped the Huskers 41-14 at Norman. Kansas drew the task su preme this week, drawing pow erful Oklahoma A. & M., while Kansas State will have the meager chore of dusting off the "Southern Gentlemen" from Memphis State. Wildcats to Rebound The Wildcats had been riding ' on their longest win streak since ! 1942. but Nebraska turned the vie- tory tide and sent the Wildcats on a two game losing streak.
