The Nebraska Cornhuskers' de
fense will get a severe test this
Saturday afternoon when meet
ing the University of Colorado
at Boulder. The Buffs, though
losing two of three starts to date,
have a wide open offensive
outfit.
And the 1-2 record means
nothing to the Buffalos who
would like nothing better than to
stomp on Nebraska now after the

Coach Glassford's call this Sat
urday for either offensive and
defensive work despite a
bruised hand in the Minnesota
encouter.
Huskers' splendid start. The one
Buff win was played at Boulder
while their setbacks were on the
road. Which goes even farther in
verifying the statement that
Colorado has two football teams:
One that wins at home and one
Sigma Chi 'B'
Edges Betas
The Sigma Chi "B" team won
out over a fighting Beta Theta
Pi "B" squad Tuesday night by
the slim margin of 8-6.
After a scoreless first half that
saw both teams threaten only
slightly the Sigs began to click.
Larry Dunning intercepted a
Beta pass deep in Beta territory
early in the third period and the
Sigs marched across to score in
three plays. The scoring play was
a short pass from Ben Leonard
to Jim Beotcher. The try for
point was unsuccessful and the
Betas took over on their 15.
Three plays netted the Betas
only two yards and forced them
to punt on fourth down. A hard
charging Sigma Chi line broke
through to block the kick, how
ever, and the ball rolled back out
of the end zone and the Sigs had
two points more. Going into the
final period, they led 8-0.
Miller Whitham put the Betas
back into contention in the
middle of the final stanza by
pifering a Sig pass and scamper
ing all the way for a touchdown.
The try for point failed with four
minutes remaining.
Back and forth went the two
teams in the last few minutes the
Betas trying to get the winning
points and the Sigs trying to pad
their margin. With time running
out, however, the Sigs only con
centrated on controlling the ball
until the whistle sounded an 8-6
Sigma Chi "3" victory.
Weeks, Doran
Lead loiva Stale
BUI Weeks and Jf Doran of
Iowa State, 1943's Big Seven
championship battery, gave full
indication Saturday that they'll
be trying again this year. Weeks
has moved out in front of the
passing parade with a net of 481
yards in three games. Doran,
starting a bit slower, has moved
his catching total to 10 for 159
yards.
Kansas will represent the
toughest test yet for the pass
conscious Cyclones. The solid
group of Jayhawk veterans, bol
stered by the fine running of
Charlie Hoag, will be in the Cy
clone field with the same 2-1
record boasted by Iowa State.
Each has won its only conference
start in the same fashion com
ing from behind to nip Colorado.
Iowa Stat has stopped Colo
rado, 14-7, and Iowa Teachers,
26-8, while losing U Northwest
ern, 23-13. Kansas defeated Colo
rado, 27-21, stopped Denver, 46

Colorado has the benefit of be
ing able to get used to the
climatical conditions in Boulder
while visitors practically all are
victims of the rarified atmo
sphere. Hodel Hot

spirited offense Is fullback Mer
win Hodel. Hodel who is the
leading ground gainer returning
from last year has started out
fast this season. Last Saturday
the Jayhawkers of Kansas cen
tered their defense on Hodel and
still he wound up the afternoon
with a total of 112 yards gained.
He is currently third in the con
ference in total yards gained.
Coupled with Hodel's power
running is a very good Buffalo
aerial attack. Statistics of the
three games under the belts of
Buffs show that Colorado has hit
.606 in aerial attempts. They
have connected on 20 of 33
pitches for 313 yards.
Colorado's coach, Dal Ward,
has his hopes of using the air to
win bolstered by the poor show
ing of the Huskers against pass
plays in their first two games.
Two Husker opponents have hit
22 of 44 for .500.
To overcome these defensive
troubles, Cornhusker Coach Bill
Glassford had his charges run
ning through plenty of defensive
fundamentals Wednesday. The
entire varsity were out in sweat
togs, but that didn't curtail its
activity.
Against a frosh outfit running
Colorado plays, the Husker de
fensive units were undergoing a
lot of practice.

sity swimming team will have the
services of eight returning letter

did not letter.
Swimming practice starts Mon
day. Oct. 16. The team will start
off with conditioning exercises,
distance work, and end up with
a game of water basketball.

strong in the sprints. Lepley will
put the sprint chores on the
shoulders of Buele Balderson,
Ted Kanamine. and Don Devries.
He will be counting on Ed Cra
ren, who is Big Seven diving
champion, to bring in valuable
points in each meet.
Any man in the university who '
is interested in swimming is cord- j
ially invited to come to the coli- ;
seum and work out with the
team. Freshmen are especially !
invited to come to swimming j
practice and work with the var
sity team so they can get them
selves in shape for the intramural

place in the second week of No
vember. Returning Lettermen

Sig Alph Bees
Drop DU's, 8-7
The Sigma Alpha Epsilon
"Bee" squad played its third con
secutive overtime football game
Monday night, this time with the
Bees of Delta Upsilon. The Sig
Alphs emerged victors in the
elongated contest by an 8-7 score.
After playing a scoreless first
half, the SAE's broke the scor
ing ice in the middle of the third
quarter and added the point to
lead, 7-0.
The Sig Alphs held this lead
until well into the final stanza
when the DU's roared downfield
for a TD. The desperate DU try
for point was narrowly a success
and the game stood 7-7 for the
few remaining minutes of regu
lation play.
Delta Upsilon tried first to
gain ground in the overtime j
affair but lost the ball on their
initial attempt via a pass inter
ception and wound up with no
yards to their credit.
The Sig Alphs first attempt
was unsuccessful, but on their
second try, they completed an 11
yard pass. The next two plays
were anti-climatical as the Sig
Alphs had won themselves a ball
game.

Four Frosh Ii
Competition,
BY BOB BANKS
Assistant Sports Editor
The Cornhusker grid squad is
on the comeback trail. And fans
will have an opportunity to wit
ness one of the side trails to the
comeback road when the Husker
yearling play host to the Kansas
State frosh Saturday.
The game will start at 2 p.m.
in Memorial Stadium. Admission
is a dollar for the public, fifty
cents for student and faculty
members, and twenty five cents
for knot holers.
The Ike Hanscom squad will
be meeting a sharp group when
they encounter the junior Wild
cats. Rumors around Manhattan
say that the 1950 team is the
best in Kansas State history. The
school is trying to build up their
stock in football and they have
turned out good freshman teams
for the last few years. In a re
cent game the Wildcat varsity
was hard put to get off with a
20-14 win. The Kansans are ex
pected to use the split-T against
Nebraska.
i Good Ball Game
Coach Hanscom feels that the
1950 frosh will be in a position
to put up a good argument. His
boys are willing to play ball and
their morale is high. In com
menting on the squad Hanscom
says his line from tackle to
tackle isn't as beefy as the 1949
line. The ends are tall, agile, and
good pass catchers. The quarter
back slot is in the capable hands
of John Bordogna. The halfbacks
are speedy and tall and the full
back berth is potent with plenty
of weight.
Coach Hanscom stresses the
point that winning the game is
of secondary importance. The
freshman year is spent working
in an effort to build varsity tim
ber for the future. The main ob
ject is supply strength where the
varsity is weak and to give team
depth.
The frosh have been busy
scrimmaging the varsity this year
and haven't had time to develop
an offense or defense of their
own or to work on fundamentals.
In the annual varsity-frosh game
on September 23 the frosh had
the wind taken out of their sails
by a 60-13 count.
