I I 11USKER DEFENSIVE MITES. Art Bauer, five-foot ten guard and Don Bloom, 145-pound halfback, were continuous thorns in the side of the powerful Oklahoma ground attack Saturday. Bauer's play this year has been a bright spot in a dark Nebraska grid pic ture, and Bloom is one of the Buskers' top scorers in the 1949 campaign.

Their win sent a loud challenge to the Oklahoma Sooners for con ference laurels even though the Sooners severely trampled the Buskers 48-0. The Tiger win over Iowa State took on more impor tance than it has in the past since the Cyclones had won three con ference games previously and had been tabbed the Big Seven's "dark horse" by many sports writers. Everyone had expected a pass ing game at Iowa State, with Bill .Weeks, the Big Seven's leading passer, and Thil Klein, the Tiger's ace quarterback, matching tosses; but neither team used their air arm very much. KU Improves Kansas' entries of the Big Scvm provided the surprises of the week. KU finally found them selves as they completely routed highly favored Oklahoma A. & M. 55-14. Their win had everyone wondering if the Jayhawks were returning to their old winning form. The Jayhawks are practically out of the running for the con ference flag, but they may figure prominently in who will take it. Kansas State, rated at least a 21 -point favorite over Memplv.s State, -uffered its third straight deieat as the Dixiecrats threw aside the form sheet and plastered a 21-14 defeat on the Wildcats. Top Game at Lawrence Thi Saturday the Big Seven spotlight will turn to Lawrence where KU and K-State meet for the 47th time. The Wildcats lost the services of fullback Gerald Hackney in the second quarter of the Memphis State game and un less the hard-charging back is sufficiently recovered from his leg injuries to play Saturday, Kansas will be a heavy favorite. The "high-mountain" bnys from Colorado had to put three long touchdown runs together to pull a 207 win over Utah State in a game .that was supposed to be a toss-up,. Saturday, Utah Univer sity travels to Boulder and it looks !ike a Big Seven victory. Iowa State, still licking their wounds that they received from the Missouri Tigers, Jock like they will be an easy prey for the Okla homa Sooners. One might go as far as to say it will probably be another warm-up game for the Cotton Bowl-bound Sooners. Missouri Favored Nebraska makes a quick trip to Missouri Saturday and I'm afraid that it will be a long trip back for Coach Glassford's Huskers. Don Faurot has his eyes on the Big Seven crown and he isn't looking for Nebraska to stand in his way. Missouri has lost two games this season both by one point to powerful opponents. Ne braska doesn't look strong enough, but there is always a chance that the Tigers might be looking a couple of weeks ahead to their date with Oklahoma which will probably decide the Big Seven championship. Even though this week's sched ule is dotted with five conference games, whatever might happen will just be an anti-climax to what happened over the past week-end. Tigers Enter Conference Title Picture Missouri, after pounding out a convincing 32-0 win over a help less Iowa State College eleven, proposes a serious threat to Okla homa's conference title dream. With a line that admits to 209 pounds per man and a back field boasting four top runners in the persons of Phil Klein, Dick Braz- nell. John Glonoso, tina wmmra Carter, Missouri's chances for a share in the Big Seven seem to improve with every game that the Tigers play. In the Illinois game Missouri's Split-T formation exploded for two markers in the first eight minutes of the opening quarter and another in the second as the Tigers rolled into a 20-6 half-time margin. Klein Paces Attack. Quarterback Klein was the whole show for the Tigers against the Illini with his punts keeping the Illinois team at bay through out the afternoon. Tn ihc Iowa State-Missouri en counter the Tigers proved that they had more than one DacKiieia star on the team as Glorioso, tsraz noll and Carter took turns punch- inn hnM n the c vc one aeiense. Glorioso scampered 44 yards for the first touchdown, and five plays later Brazncll went tor the secona rlimav. a 50-vard drive. The third rfriv wa the result of the efforts of Carter, who piled up most of the 66 yards covered. Glorioso Hero. Missouri's hero of the last two games is Glorioso, a Kansas City iuninr uhn wasn't even first string until Nick Carras, the reg ular Tiger back, was injured ana Glorioso given a chance of making good at the halfback slot. John showed he can run as last as Nick by taking the ball on Mis souri's second scrimmage oppor tunity of the Illinois contest and going 49 yards to a touchdown.
