The accent was on offense as
the Huskers spent another hard
afternoon preparing for Penn
State. During the entire scrim
mage session Wednesday the of
fensive team was put through
their paces. Both passing and
running were stressed in the
work-out against a rugged fresh
man defensive team.
The Huskers lined up on of
fense with Frank Simon and
Dick Regier at ends; Charlie
Toogood and Walt Spellman at
tackles; Don Strasheim and Art
Bauer at guards, and Ken
Schroeder at center.
in the backfield were Fran
Nagle at quarterback. Bob Rey
nolds and Rocky Mueller at half
backs, and Kay Curtis at full
back. Gerry Ferguson and Larry
Carney took over at the ends
later in the scrimmage. Other
replacements were Wayne Hand
shy at tackle, Ron Clark at full
back and Joe McGill at center.
Running Good
The ground attack of the
Huskers was at its usual peak
during the work out. Reynolds
continued to make repeated
gains each time he carried the
balL Mueller gained consistent
ly throughout the freshman line
and Curtis battered his way into
the secondary repeatedly.
Clark, still hampered by a
broken hand, was not called on
to do much running, but he
grabbed several long aerials
from Nagle.
Reynolds Passes
After Coach. Bill Glassford
called an end to the running
drill, the Huskers turned to pass-

a leaky line which let the fresh
men through before he could get
his passes away. Still ho man

Bengals Take
From Wlieels;
The Bengals, top ranked In
dependent team and ranked
tenth in All-University, had to
go all out Monday night to win
over the "Wheels. The final score
was 7-6 and the winning point
was the result of yardage.
After a scoreless first quarter
the Bengal attack got rolling
midway in the second period.
With Chuck Hunley at the helm,
the Bengals drove to within
rtriking distance and then
boosted the leaders into a 6-0
lead by hitting Howard Ulin in
the endzone for the score. The
try for point went astray and the
Bengals led at halftime, .6-0.
The Wheels roared hack in the
third stanza and knotted the
game up when Al Gilmore
tossed a touchdown pass to Bill
Mulder. The all important try
lor point was batted down by
the Bengals and the game de
veloped into a scoreleHs battle
lor the rest of the game.
Really Hull
In the .overtime period, the
Bengals really went to town .and
chalked up 45 yards on their
four downs. The Wheels were
not to give up without a fight,
however, and even after loning
some 15 yards on their firEl
three plays, wound up the ever
time stanza with a net fain of
40 yards.
The Bengals threatened four
times during the elongated con
test, twice within a whisper of
tli oaL but just couldn't pubh
the pigskin across, the Wheel
defense tightening in the
clutches.
The City YMCA kept its record
clean, also, by winning its sec
ond game of the year Monday
night. The Y men downed a
scrappy band of Ag Men by the
acore of 18-7.
All the scoring in the contest
was crammed into the third
period as , the other three

the bail off to Reynolds, running
from the halfback post, and he
faded back and heaved a long
pass. Perhaps the talented Rob
ert will turn to pitching the op
position crazy as well as run
ning them crazy.
Pass Defense
The old Husker bugaboo, pass
defense, was in for a long ses
sion also Wednesday. Nick Aduc

Ron Clark were in the backfield
during the pass defense prac
tice. The freshman quarterback

of passes against this set-up but
on the whole the defense was
better than that displayed
against Colorado last Saturday.
The offensive ends received
some work on getting down the
field on punts after the scrim
mage. Simon and Regier alter
nated with Ferguson and Carney
on driving down under the
punts and smearing the ball car
rier as soon as he receives the
punt.
Lions At Peak
Turning to Saturday's oppo
sition, the Nittany Lions will be

defensive club is Don Barney,

also injured in the game with

The loss was the second of the

enough for fourth place in the

Coach Good
Year Ahead
By Jim KosUl
Staff Sports Writer
Coach Harry Good's cagers
opened practice this week in
preparation for the 1950-1951
cage season.
And it looks like a rugged year
for the Cornhuskers, with every
conference foe improved over last
year. Coach Good's squad has a
long way to go before the De
cember 2 date with Minnesota,
the first game for the Nebrask
ans. Coach Good feels that the
depth of material, which was a
strong point last year with Pierce
backing up "Bus" Whitehead at
center and Bob Gates and Joe
Brown ready to relieve Jim
Buchanan and Bob Cerv at the
guard positions, is considerably
weaker this year because of the
loss oi ten out of the first twelve
men on last year's varsity squad.
However, four of these. Gates,
Brown. Larry Walsh, and Joe
Malacek have a year's eligibility
remaining, but all elected not to
return to school.
Seeking: Third Title
According to Good, who is
seeking his third Big Seven
championship in a row in his
fifth season as Nebraska head
mentor, the going will be pretty
rough and he sees no possible
chance of the young, inexperi
enced Huskers being contenders
for the title this year.
Good feels that Kansas Uni
versity, led by the mighty Clyde
Lovellette, will again be the
team to beat with Kansas State
assuming the role of leading
contender. When asked for a pos
sible darkhorse, Coach Good re
plied that any Big Seven team
outside of Nebraska could be
placed in that category
Forming the nucleus for the
1950 squad will be Jim Buch
anan, a fireball at guard, and
Bob Pierce, elongated center
holdover from last year's team.
These two men are the only re
turning lettermen reporting to
Coach Good.
Three of last year's squad
members are back. They are For
ward Norm Wilnes of Sidney,
Forward Darrell Brandenburg of
Liberty, Ind., and Guard Andy
Bunten of Cheyenne, Wyo.
Moving up from Neal Meh
ring's "B" team are Al Blessing.
Ord, Paul Kipper, Lincoln, Jesse
Sell, Louisville, and Bernie Ak
romis, Omaha. Jim Walsh, "B"
team player from the 1948-1849
squad, is also working out
15 Sophomores
In addition. Coach Good has 15
Sophomores coming up from the
Freshman squad of last year.
These include Joe Good, Lincoln,
Graves Holloway, Alexandria.
La Bob Mercier, Lincoln, Ron
Roeder, Omaha, Subby Ruma,
Omaha. Roland Rivers. Seward,
Jim Snyder, Winchester, Ind.,
Harrison Ward. Plainfield, Ind,

Paynich, are with the football
squad and won't join the cage
squad until the end of the grid

Conditioning has been stressed
day, but may be able to go against
Oklahoma University, but Hooper
is a definite question mark,
Coach Graham said Mondaj'.
But it's not all bad news in
Wildcat land this week. Left end
Glenn Channell, who has been
out since the Washington game
with a sprained knee, was given
the doctor's okay to play this
week. If Starns still is hobbled,
the -5 Channell will start in
his place.

From early indications it ap
