In a driving rain storm, the varsity was sent through a long session against the frosh. Emphasis for the second etraight day was placed on in dividual assignments and down field blocking, the offensive platoon getting the majority of Coach Glassford's attention. Tuesday's workout gave Coach Bill something to smile about and after Wednesday's skirmish in the rain, he must have a big grin on his face for Wednesday's practice appeared to be even sharper than that of the day be fore. Downfield blocking was espec ially noticeable. The guards and tackles were doing excellent jobs of following the play down field and putting in some key blocks. Showing up well in this department Wednesday was Charlie Toogood, veteran tackle. One of Charlie's downfield blocks was some 20 yards be yond the line of scrimmage and bowled over two frosh would be tacklers at once. Only- dark spot on a day of Indians Club Bosox Tivice The Cleveland Indians con siderably helped the New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers in their quest of the American League pennant Wednesday afternoon by cooling off a red hot Boston Red Sox outfit twice. The scores of the two Cleveland victories were 6-3 and 7-1. At the same time, the league leading Yanks squashed the Chicago White Sox, 8-1, and De troit rallied for a 6-5 win over the Philadelphia A's. The Indians started fast in the first game of the twin-bill, scor ing twice in the first frame on Bob Kennedy's double" and Luke Easter's home run. They added a third tally in the third inning on Kennedy's second double and Larry Doby's single. In the fifth inning, the victors took a 5-0 lead on singles by Doby and Jim Hegan and a double by Dale Mitchell. The Sox rallied for two in the sixth on Goodman's single with men on second and third and tallied once more in the seventh but outside of that, the Boston ians were completely handcuffed by the American League's top pitcher, Bob Lemon, who picked up his 21st win of the year. Lemon walked five and struck out nine as he bested young Chuck Stobbs of the Sox. Doby, Kennedy, and Mitchell all connected for the Indians. A two-run homer started the Lidians to their second victory of the day, also, this one coming off the bat of Joe Gordon in the second frame after Ray Boone had singled. An error on Red Socker Walt Dropo and a booming triple by Boone added two more tallies in the fourth stanza. Dropo partially made-up for his miscue in the seventh inning, blasting out a home-run for the only Boston run of the game. In the bottom of the same inning, the victoriods Clevelanders went hillhappy and with four hits tallied three more times. JL , WfltT SPEfcLMflM. NEBRASKA 1 Goad ... WO I...

HAROLD'S Barber Shop 223 No. 14 St. Vt Blocks South of Student Union Fall Leaders For Campus Wear FLANNEL iiirts Sooners Hard At Work for Boston College . NORMAN. Okla. Although six players are benched with, in juries and Bill Price, senior end, lost for the season because of the fracture of a knee bone, the Okla homa sooners are working furi ously for their opener here Sep tember 30 against Boston Col lege, first eastern team ever to play at Owen field. Coach Bud Wilkinson and his varsity coaching aids, Gomer Jones, Frank "Pop" Ivy, Bill Jen nings and George Lynn, have been pleased lately with the hustle of such sophomores as End Kay Keller of Thomas, Okla., Tackle George Cornelius of Cherokee. Okla.; Halfback Merrill Green of Chickasha, Okla., and Fullback Raymond Powell of Perryton, Tex. The battle for right end be tween the 190-pound Keller and Frankie Anderson, swashbuckling senior from Oklahoma City, has attracted the attention of the squad. Keller, a speedy 18-year old, has shown the greatest improve ment of any sophomore lines man. He is beginning to learn the rudiments of blocking and he hustles and plays for keeps. Anderson, a four-year veteran who is a fine Saturday player, is speeding up the tempo of his practice as Keller sparkles ahead of him. Powell the Texas panhandle youngster from Perryton, has risen to No. 3 in the position where Coach Wilkinson says Oklahoma is strongest fullback. Powell runs slitheringly down the middle, maneuvering like a half back. Lack of speed is his big gest drawback but Wilkinson's daily sprints may help that. Buff Hodel MhyLeadBig7 BOULDER, Colo. While Coach Dal Ward has a lot of headache, in trying to mold his sophomore-dominated Colorado Buff gridders at least he has something else a lot of Big Seven coaches would like: Merwin Hodel. A junior fullback, Hodel was the Buffaloes' top ground-gainer in 1949. It looks like the big boy wants to repeat in 1950, maybe even try to top the conference. Hodel, 195 pounds, has been blocking and running with fer vor in the closing days of the pre-season training here. He started out somewhat non chalant in the first few practices. Something bit him; there's no telling what Teally happened. Anyway, Hodel recently has been socking the sawdust out of dum mies on blocking assignments. He shifts into high gear every time he tduches the ball. He seems to enjoy "etting behind the secon dary defense as though he had a bet on with himself. He's giving his own squad fits when it comes to stopping his power. In 1949, Hodel finished 19th in the nation amonf, ground gainers. He had a net yardage of 748 for a 4.4 average yards per carry. A Rockford, 111., boy, Ho del also snagged 14 passes last year for another 174 yards. the You'll find the answers to these and many other sport facts in the new 1950-51 Sports Show BOOK.

A 27-year-old war veteran who wants to play football so much no one can ignore him is likely to end up Indiana's first-string fullback, despite the fact he has a hard time boosting the hand on the scales to 175 pounds. He is Al Tutsie, who hails from Republic, Pa., where Coach Clyde Smith started his coach ing career. A pepper-pot and strictly team-man "n the field, Tutsie's hustle anc .ashing run ning amazes everyone. "You'd think he's the eagerest sophomore on the squad," chuck les Smith, "instead of the oldest man on the roster. But he's got the fire and desire to play foot ball and there's always a place on the team for a boy like that." Tutsie, an Air Force veteran of the European campaign, won his place by sheer persistence. A transfer from Duquesne, it was thought he had only one year of eligibility at Indiana. Conse quently, the Hoosiers' rebuilding program didn't' count heavily on him. He still was impressive as first substitute at left halfback, gaining 52 yards in 11 carries in the opener against Notre Dame, but he played jnly 87 mir.utes all season. He came back in an emergency to play a bang-up game at fullback against Purdue in the Tinal game. FREE University of Nebraska Decals No obligation to buy.
