Final Non-Conference Foe;
Big-7 Competition Tough
By Bill Mundell
Sports Editor, Daily Nebraskan
Well it's back to easy non
conference competition as the
Cornhuskers prepare for this
Saturday's battle with Penn
State.
The Huskers found that they
were entered in a rough foot
ball league last Saturday as twice
beaten Colorado spoiled Nebras
ka's debut in league play by wal
loping the Huskers. 28-19. So. it's
back to work for Bill Glassford,
his crew, and the varsity.
This Saturday's opponent, Penn
State, is the last non-conference,
foe for the Huskers this season.
Following this game in Memor
ial Stadium, the NU gridders
must meet Kansas, Missouri,
Kansas State, Iowa State, and
Oklahoma in that order and all
of them tough.
Of the five, Oklahoma looms
as the toughest because of being
defending champion and also on
the strength of their 14-13 win
over Texas last Saturday. Also,
Iowa State and Kansas look har
der to hurdle because of their
wins over Colorado earlier. Kan
sas bopped the Cyclones last
Saturday, 33-20.
Penn State Tough
But, looking at this Saturday's
game with Penn State which is
more immediate. Although the
Cornhuskers have been the most
ALL-UNIVERSITY
1. Alpha Tan Omega (2-1).
2. Brown Palace (3-0).
3. Sigma Nu (3-1).
4. Phi Delta Theta (2-1).

6. Sigma Phi Epsilon (5-0).
7. Delta Tau Delta (4-0).
8. Kappa Sigma B" (3-0).
9. Pi Kappa Phi (4-0).
JO. Bengals (2-0 Y.
Alpha Tau Omega is back on
top of the intramural grid rat
ings this week after losing it
for one week. The Taus bat
tered last week's top team, Sigma
Nu, by a 12-6 score to regain
the leading spot Sigma Nu in
the number three position.
Holding fast to the runner-up
spot this week as last is Brown
Palace. The Palacers lost a
chance to move into first place
over the week by failing to get
into action. They did pick up
one win. however, a 1-0 forfeit
from Zeta Beta Tau.
Phi Delta Theta remains the
number four team. The Phi
Delts, also, were inactive last
week. Highlighting their 2-1
record is a 6-0 victory over the
top ranked Taus, the ATO's only
loss.
Presby House, also, failed
to get into competition over the
week and hung on to the num
ber five rung. Their 4-0 record
keeps them well above the other
denominational outfits.
Holding down the number six
position in the All-University
ratings is Sigma Phi Epsilon. The
Sig Eps were unrated a week
ago due to an erroneous score,
but have been reinstate to their
rightful position this week. Their
record of five wins and no losses
is the finest in the University to
date. Last week the Sig Eps
downed Beta Sigma Psi, 6-0.
Delta Tau Delta is the num-
ber seven team, holding tight to
the rune they claimed last week.
The Delts dropped the Betas
ever the week, 20-8.
A newcomer appears in the
number eight spot this week.
Kappa Sigma's "B squad has
moved into this position with a
3-0 record to date. Two vic
tories last week, 2-0 over Delta
Upsilon and 6-0 over Sigma
Jfu. upped the Kappa Sigs.
The K-Sig Bees" have the dis
tinction of being ranked higher
than the Kappa Sig "A" squad.
The A" team absorbed a 13-0
licking at the hands of Delta
Upsilon last week to drop them
out of the standings altogether.
It waa the1 first win in four starts
for the DlPs.
Pi Kappa Phi climbed a peg
since last week and currently
are ranked number nine. The
Pi Kaps turned in two victories
last week, a 19-0 shellacking of
Acacia and a 8-7 squeeze by
Theta Chi,
The top Independent outfit,
the Bengals, his week is ranked
in tenth pice. The Bengals,
sixth last week, slid because of
inactivity. They did pick up a
win, however, a 1-0 forfeit from
the Lillies. The Lily forfeit gave
evidence that they will not de
fend their Independent cham
pionship won last year.

Huskers. His pass interception
was timely.
successful against non-conference
to date, Penn State will be
no soft touch. The Nittany Lions
have a powerful ground attack
that wilL keep the Huskers on
their toes all afternoon.
Saturday's defeat at the hands
of Colorado was hard to take
for most of the Husker faithful
who had visions of grandeur. It
was hard for them to telieve that
Colorado could have been that
tough. It was hard for the grid
ders themselves to take the
Buffs too seriously. And in evi
dence of the game the Huskers
definitely were below their Min
esota peak.
But not to take anything away
from Colorado, the Buffalos play
ed a smashing game and simply
outclassed the favored Nebraska
men. Their blocking and tackl
ing were terrific and their backs
were continually in the Huskers
hair, both offensively and de
fensively. Except on one spectacular run
by Bobby Reynolds, the vaunted
Nebraska one-two punch of
Reynolds and Bill Mueller failed
to get the chance to perform.
The Husker linemen were con
tinually outcharged and the
holes that were supposed to open,
just weren't there.

Sigma Chi Wins
In the Fraternity 'B" ratings,
Theta Xi Rolls
To 36-0 Win
Theta Xi scored in every pe
riod to crurh Tau Kappa Epsilon
Thursday night by a 36-0 score.
The TX men chalked-up one
touchdown in each of the first
three quarters and exploded for
two more and a safety in the fi
nal stanza.
For the Tekes, it was just too
much Bob Bale as the TX back
passed to 22 points.
Al Blaha was on the scoring
end of the first Bale touchdown
flip in the first quarter. The play
covered 25 yards. The same com
bination prrovided the TXers
with their second score in the
second quarter, this time cover
ing 30 yards.
In the third period, Larry Do
marcio speared a Teke pass and
ran 60 yards to boos-t the win
ners' margin to 19-0. Bale's pass
made it 20 markers going into
the final period.
The fourth quarter continued
to hail touchdowns on the Tekes'
heads, but first Theta Xi added
two points on a safety. Jim Oc
chner, back to pass for the Tekes,
watched a high pass from center
sail over his head and out of the
end zone for the two-pointer
Donarico took over the passing
chores at this point and from his
own SO, heaved a long pass into
the arms of Andy Boris to run
the score to 29-0. The play
covered 45 yards. Bale to Boris
was the extra point team.
Before calling it a day, Bale
faded back once again and flip
ped a 30 yard scoring pass into
the arms of Boris,
of the game after the touchdown
and Theta Xi had one of the
largest lop-sided victories of the
intramural year. It was the
third victory of the year for the
victors.

VERL SCOTT . . . play his us
ual good linebacking play at
Colorado Saturday. His pass
interception helped.
Bobby Reynolds scooted 84
yards to score behind good
blocking and terrific interference
downfield.
Reynolds again was the whole
scoring show for the Cornhusk
ers as all 19 of the Nebraska
points were recorded beside
Bobby's name. Just before the
half, Bobby took a five yard pass
from Fran Nagle in the end zone
for the initial Husker points.
His 84 yard run produced the
second NU tally, and Bobby re
ceived another Nagle pass late
in the game for the third and
final score. His conversion after
the third touchdown provided
him with the 19th point.
The Huskes almost had an
other when with but seconds re
maining in the first half, Ron
Clark intercepted a Colorado
pass and eluded tacklers down
to the Buff ten yard stripe. The
half ended before the Huskers
got to use their four downs. It
is not too much to believe that
if Clark could have gone all the
way on that play, it would have
broken the backs of the Buffalo
spirit, but as it was the Buff
spirit was not broken and Colo
rado was not to be denied the
victory they had worked for so
hard all week.
The Husker defense had more
individual stars of the day as
many a Buff back was set down
with jarring tackles. Leading the
way were Ed Husmann, Verl
Scott, Don Bloom, Ron Clark,
Don Boll, and Dick Goeglein.

Leggott began his flipping

rected them to a score. The
actual scoring play was a 29 pass
play from Leggott to Dick
Frqgge. A 30 yard aerial to Jim

Early in the second period Jen
sen took a Newman Club punt
on his own 12 yard li.ie and
raced 63 yards to score behind
terrific blocking. Before the half
the Baptists scored again. This
time Leggott scooped up a loose
Catholic fumble and raced 25
yards to make the halftime
score 19-0.
The Baptists completed the
scoring in the third period with
Leggott passing all over the field. ;

Phi PsVs Rally
to Overcome
18 Point Lead
Talk about comebacks! The
gridders of Phi Kappa Psi pulled
one for the books Thursday night
as they overcame an 18 point
fourth quarter deficit to sur
prise Alpha Gamma Rho by a
20-18 score.
Going into the final period, the
Phi Psi's were hopelessly beaten
and on the short end of a 18-0
score, but nobody told them that
they were whipped. Three times
they pushed the ball across the
AGR goal, the last time with only
20 seconds remaining in the
game. It all happened this way:
Alpha Gamma Rho started off
with a bang by scoring the first
time it got ahold of the ball. A
20 yard pass play put the ball on
the Phi Psi 2 yard line from
where Gene Engle flipped to
Glenn Moritz for the touchdown.
The try point failed, but that
didn't bother the Aggies.
Early in the second period
Moritz intercepted a pass by Bob
Britton and scampered 25 yards
unmolested to boost the AGR
score to 12. The important point
I failed again, but the AGR's were
j not through yet.
! In the same stanza, Dave Noble
jof Phi Psi went back to pass.

! tended receiver's arms as Del
0to "i"md " ,he AKles
down. The third try for point
went astray as the half ended,
18-0 in favor of Alpha Gamma
Rho.
During this initial half, the Phi
Psi's were completely outclassed
and never got anything resemb
ling a drive under way.
- The second half was different
i however. In the third quarter
i they suddenly came to life and
their running and passing started
to click. They looked like the
superior team on the field except
for the one thing, they couldn't
score.
But score and score they did
in the final period. Noble un
leashed a 30 yard pass that Dick
Hollander gathered in on the one
and stepped across to score to
open the scoring parade. Hollan
der turned passer for the point
and flipped to Britton. With six
minutes remaining the score
stood, 18-7.
The AGR's took the ball, failed
to gain, and punted and the Phi
Psi's were off again. Four plays
put them on their own 30. On the
next play Hollander stepped back
and fired a long one to Craw
ford who went all the way to
score. The play covered 45 yards.
The same combination clicked
for the point and with a little
over a minute remaining the
score stood at 18-14.
Alpha Gamma Rho took the
ball and attempted to stall . In
doing so they iost considerable
yardage and with their backs to
their goal, were forced to pass.
This is what Phi Psi's were
waiting for and with 20 seconds
remaining in the game, Roberts
reached out, intercepted an Aggie
aerial, and stepped forward two
yards to give Phi Kappa Psi the
spectacular victory.
The first went to Frogge and
the ball was on the Newman
Club 26. The next, also to
Frogge .moved the ball to the
ten. The third went to Sam
Pearls and was good for a touch
down. Late in the same period they
started again, this time from
their ten yard line. Leggott
passed to Pearls who lateraled
to Jensen, the play good for 30
yards. Then Leggott hit Frogge
who made a beautiful over the
shoulder catch and the Baptists
had their gsme, 31-0.

By Jim Kostal
Staff Sports Reporter
Wait till next year! Once
again this statement will become
a popular slogan when Corn
husker football fans gather to
talk about the future of Ne
braska football. That was proved
last Saturday afternoon asjoaqh
Ike Hanscom trotted out his
hoard of red-jerseyed Freshmen
players onto Memorial Stadium
sod to give a spirited Kansas
State Frosh eleven a real lesson
in football. The final score was
34-12.
The Husker yearlings outplay
ed the K-Staters in every de
partment of the game. So com
pletely were they outclassed that
Ray Novak, a star halfback on
the 1950 squad, was used exclu
sively for kickoff duties after the
first quarter. Even this chore be
came tiring as the afternoon pro
gressed. Players as Dennis Eman
uel, Bobby Decker, and Don Vogt
seldom got to lug the pigskin
because of the weakness of the
opposition. &
Only in the second and fourth
quarters did the Nebraska de
fence weaken enough for the
Wildcat yearlings to score. One
of these touchdowns came on a
long pass, the other was the re
sult of the Nebraska team failing
on a fourth down gamble, and
the Wildcats took over and drove
over for their final score.
Many Passes
Jerry Garris, the Kansas State
quarterback must surely have a
tired right arm this evening as
he threw an amazing total of 25
passes and completed but 3 of
them. Thus pass defense, which
is the main worry for the Varsity
at the present time, should be
vastly improved in future years
with boys such as Dick Westin,
Bobby Decker, and Sam Sarette
to break up pass plays.
Two Frosh ends, Jim Senkbeil
and Jerry Paulson, deserve spe
cial praise for their fine defen
sive play as do tackles Steve Mc
Gill and Jerry Minnick, guards
Marvin Anderson and Harvey
Goth, and linebacker Bill Noble.
Leading the Nebraska scoring
parade were five different backs,
showing the depth of Coach
Hanscom's backfield this year.
Sam Sarette opened the scoring
for the Frosh as he raced over
the Kansas State goal standing
up with five minutes left in the
first quarter. Bobby Decker
calmly made the first of his six
extra points and the Huskers
