The University of Nebraska
football machine swung back
into full gear Tuesday in prep
aration for its Saturday's tussle
with an up-and-coming Univer
sity of Missouri team.
Coach Bill Glassford had every
Varsity man in full playing uni
form with the exception of Bill
Mueller. Barring injuries this
week during practice, the team
should be at full strength for the
Tigers.
Larry Carney, Bill Wingender,
end Dick Goll all returned to
full duty today to bolster the"
end, fullback and guard posi
tions, respectively.
Split-T
Coach Glassford, fearful of the
powerful Split-T running attack
of the Tigers, sent his defensive
platoon against a Frosh lineup
in a two-hour scrimmage.
Starting for the Varsity on de
fense were George Prochaska
and Bill Maxe at the ends, Bob
Mullen and Jim Godfrey, tack
les; Rex Hoy and Carl Brazee,
guards. The linebacks were Verl
Scott and Kay Curtis. Don Boll,
Torn Harper, and Ed Hussmann
al;o saw considerable action.
The Freshmen team used Mis
souri plays against the Varsity
rici'ense with some success until
boys like Prochaska, Mullen, Boll
and Toogood began catching on
to the tricky style of the Mis
souri offense. From then on the
Freshmen had a pretty rough
time gaining any ground.
The offensive squad practiced
an hour on blocking assignments.
Coach Glassford also had the of
fensive linemen practicing charg
ing on the snap of the ball. A
scrimmage against a second
freshman outfit was next on the
docket. The Frosh were decked
out in blocking pads to protect
against injuries.
The starting lineup for the
f Jr )
Vs Upset'
Pi Kops in
Grid . Playoff
Phi Gamma Delta scored three
times in the third period Tuesday
Btlarnoon to upset Pi Kappa
Phi, 19-7 In a fraternity "A" in
tramural football playoff contest.
The Pi Kaps, favored slightly
gcing into the contest, were
rui'y shoved out of the picture
by the Fiji splurge.
PJ-.-h Olson fired a 40-yard
pass to John Sinclair in the Pi
Kip end zone early in the third
quarter to start the Phi Gam
scoring spree.
Olson took personal command
w'-'en the Pi Kaps retaliated with
pi) aerial barrage. He made a
Inping interception and roared
down the field SO yards to up the
Fiji total to 12. He adde.3 another
print by flippiing the extra point
pass to Bill Keebler.
Still Rolling
But the rampaging Phi Gams
were not through. A Pi Kap at
tack fizzled-out and they were
forced to punt, the Fijis taking
over on their 18-yard line. Two
plays moved them to the 20 and
then Olson fired a ten-yard pass
to Sinclair who eluded the entire
Pi Kap backfield to roll 45 yards
to score.
Pi Kappa Phi came back with
a touchdown in the final quarter
when Warren Sheffield shot a
10-yard pass to Albert Naber.
The same combination clicked
f or the extra point, but there the
scoring ended.
Besides the passing and run
ning of Olson and Sinclair,
Keebler and Dick Piderit were
standouts for the Phi Gams;
Both the Naber brothers, Al
and Herb, showed up well for the
Pi Kaps as did Warren Anderson.
The Phi Gams now meet Pio
neer House, another upset win
ner, in the second round of the
fraternity "A" tourney.
Cvclones Face
Kansas State
Iowa State faces an aroused,
dangerous and rested football ioe
Saturday when the Cyclones in
vade Manhattan for their annual
game with Kansas State.
It will be homecoming at Man
hattan as the veterans of the
"Wildcat squad return to action
after an open date. The K-Stat-crs
did not play last week. Last
action for them was the week
before when they played Okla
homa at Norman in the Sooner
homecoming.
Some 30 of the 35 men who
took part in that sensational 25
to 21 contest at Ames last year,
returned to Manhattan this fall.
Although some were injured
prior to the Oklahoma game,
Coach Halph Graham will have
his 1950 squad at its physical
peak Saturday. None of the in
jured Wildcats played at Nor
man, taking more than two
weeks to let all injuries heal.
Coach Abe StUber is taking no
chances -with Kansas State, treat
ing the "Wildcats -with just as
much respect as he did Okla
homa, then rated as the No. 3
team in the nation. Stuber has
repeatedly warned all listeners
that Kanras State had as good
players as any in the loop, a
state of affairs whidrmakes the
Wildcat squad mighty dangerous.
Court' v of Lincoln Journal
REX HOY Husker defen
sive guard, was named na
tionally as one of the stars of
the week for last Saturday's
performance against Kansas.
Rex grabbed a Jayhawk pass
and rambled 66 yards to score
the Cornhuskers in addition to
playkig a stellar game at
guard. Hoy is the third Hus
ke rto receive such mention
this year. Bobby Reynolds
was a "star" for the first four
weeks in a row while last
week linebacker, Verl Scott,
was named as a "star."
Varsity was Regier and Simon at
ends, Spellman and Handshy at
tackles, Strasheim and Bauer at
guards, and McGill at center.
The backfield consisted of Na
gle at quarter, Clark and Rey
nolds, halves, and Adduci at
fullback.
Adduci Smashes
Adduci, continuing his power
house play of the last two weeks,
broke through the Frosh line
time after time for 15 and 20
yard gains. It seemed that Nick
had suddenly developed a quick
change of pace to go along with
his power running.
Play became rougher as the
scrimmage progressed with Clark
and Reynolds often being stopped
cold by the hard-charging Fresh
men defensive line.
The other offensive team to
see action against the Frosh was
made up of Carney and Fergu
son, ends; Spellman and Hand
shy, tackles; Ponseigo and Mey
er, guards; and Britt at center.
The backfield had Lehman at
quarterback, Sommers and Win
ey at left-half, Bloom at right
half, and Wingender at full. Ken
Schroeder also saw considerable
action, changing off with both
McGill and Britt at center.

Bl J A I IV. JHA
Unbeaten Presby House took
advantage of the breaks to score
eight points in the last three
minutes of the game Tuesday
night to beat an inspired New
man Club team, 14-6. With the
score tied 6-6 a Catholic pass
from center sailed over Bob Mc-
Curdy's head and rolled back
across the Newman goal. Before
McCurdy could carry it out, the
whole Presby team swarmed
over him for a safety.
Presby House took over the
ball on their fifteen and tried to
stall out the time, but with a
little over a minute remaining,
they were forced to punt, Bob
Shuler's kick carrying the length
of the field.
Newman took over and tried
desperately to core, but with
only 15 seconds left in the con
test. McCurdy was rushed hard
by the Presby line and he fum
bled. In the excitement, no one
paid any attention to the ball
lying on the ground, that is, no
one except Presby Gary Joselyn
who calmly picked up the ball
and shot the remaining eight
yards to score.
Until then, the Catholics gave
the favored Presbys quite a bat
tle. Presby House scored first af
ter a pass interception by Jim
Peterson "with only one minute
gone in the game. Driving down
to the Catholic 2-yard line, Pres
by scored when Joselyn passed
to Joe Xagget.
The Newman Club roared hack
in the second period -when Neil
Campbell sifted behind the Pres
by defensive safety man and took
a 34-yard pass from McCurdy.
The Catholics threatened to go
ahead early in the third period.
A Newman lineman intercepted
a Bill Mundell pass on the Pres
by S-yard line, but after four
downs, they were sitting only on
the two. That was the last chance
the Catholics ever got.
Presby meets the Ag YMCA In
the denominational finals Friday
night. The Aggies dropped the
high flying Baptists in the first
round.

Colorado Has
Problems for
Sooner Game
One of Coach Dal Ward's big
gest problems this week in pre
paring his Colorado team for the
invasion of the Oklahoma Soon
ers in Boulder Saturday is
how to bolster the wingback po
sition in the Buff backfield.
Colorado's 20-20 tie with Utah
last Saturday inflicted a weak
ness in the Buffalo right half
position. Starter Woody Shelton
sprained an ankle in the irst
ciiuu aaiuai iuc j tea. uay
or two before, Freddie John
son's trick knee started acting
up.
That left Ralph (Cactus) Cur
tis, another sophomore, as the
only able-bodied wingback in
the Colorado camp following the
Utah game. Curtis' development
through the campaign, however,
has been retarded due to a pre
season leg injury.
So, if Shelton's ankle heals,
Johnson's knee stays put, and
Curtis keeps plugging the
Buffs may be all right in the
backfield. Otherwise, the Colo
rado offense may sag.
The 148-pound Shelton has
been a consistent ground-gainer
and spark for the Golden Buf
faloes. In the Redskin tilt at Salt
Lake City, Shelton returned mo
mentarily in the third quarter to
reel off a spectacular 16-yard
touchdown run that saw him cs
caping almost "certain" nabs by
the Utahans.
For the fourth week in a row
Colorado's golden gridders re
ceived the opening kickoff and
scored the first touchdown of the
game without relinquishing con
trol of the ball.
Zack Jordan, Buff tailback who
topped the nation's punters last
week, -will probably hold the
No. 1 rung again. His average in
the Ute contest was 49.5.
As for Oklahoma, the Buffs
have been looking forward to
the visit by Wilkinson and Co.,
for some time.
"We will have to work hard
this week," Coach Ward said,
"and we'll try and have our boys
as physically ready as possible."
Taus Rally to
Drop AGR's
Alpha Tau Omega spotted Al
pha Gamma Rho a first period
safety and then scored two
touchdowns in rapid fire succeS"
sion in the second quarter to win
their opening playoff game Tues
day night. The running and pass
ing of Dick Bick plus a sensa
tional catch by Knox Jones were
the AGR downfall.
Jones leaped high for a Bick
pass early in the second period
for the first Tau touchdown and
put them in the lead for good.
Bick hurled again lor the extra
point, this time to Fred Cady and
the Taus led, 7-2.
The Aggies started out to get
those points back with a flurry
of passes. One was aimed at the
wrong man, however, as Bick
intercepted it and scurried 40
yards for the second Tau TD.
Bick, back again, flipped the 14th
point to Don Berquist and that
was the scoring.
Both teams tried hard in the
final half, but couldnt get their
scoring machines moving, and
the game ended like the first I
half, 14-2.
George Pinkerton was the de
fensive standout for the Aggies
all afternoon as he was continu
ally in the ATO backfield. I
beginning of the season he was
situated on the "B" team, but
when the varsity returned home
from the Curtis camp, Glassford
switched the backfield man to
end. Louie saw his first Husker
action against Minnesota.
Roper graduated from Lincoln
High School in 1949. While at
Lincoln High he lettered in foot
ball and basketball. He was
quarterback while at Lincoln.
He is a sophomore in Bus Ad
College and is affiliated with
Phi Delta Theta fraternity.
Five more teams will follow
the 11 already disposed of in in
tramural football playoff compe
tition Wednesday night as tougher
and tougher opposition is being
served up to the survivors.
The fraternity "A" tournament
will go into the second round of
play with four games on tap
while the five contests will be
the final game of the first round
Independent play.
All the games should be close
in the fraternity "A" bracket,
the winners to advance to the
semi-finals of that tourney.
Leading the way in pre-game
excitement is the battle between
Sigma Nu and Delta Tau Delta.
Both teams won their opening
round game with little trouble,
the Nu's flattening Sigma Alpha
Mu by a 19-0 score while the
Delts were blasting Cornhusker
Co-op to the tune of 35-6.
Offense vs. Defense
The j?ame may develop into
the battle of offense versus de
fense. The Delts are currently
the highest scoring team in the
University with I4fi nni
chalked-up in seven games, an
average of over 20 per contest.
The Nu's on the other hand shine
through their dpfen 51V A nrrvuriscc
They have held four opponents
scoreless in their seven games
played.
Offense holds the key here,
however, and the Delts are
slight favorites to go into the
semis. This game will be on
field 2.
Sigma Phi Epsilon and Brown
Palace should put on quite a
show in their struggle on field
three. The two teams are cur
rently ranked first and third in
the University and have shown
considerable power all year long.
Both had trouble in their first
round play against stubborn op
position, but came through with
flying colors to ride home vic
torious. The Sig Eps stopped
Theta Xi, 19-6 while the Palacers
were downing Tau Kappa Ep
silon, 12-0.
Good Passing Attacks
Both outfits possess terrific
passers in Ted Krattand, Mel
Williams and top pass receivers
in Bob Svanda and Bob Stake.
By sticking with the leader
until he is beaten, you come up
with Sigma Phi Epsilon by a very
slim margin over Brown Palace.
Don't be too surprised if it goes
the other way.
Phi Gamma Delta and Pioneer
House, two teams who supposedly
were not to reach second round
play will battle on field 1. Both
outfits scored the only upsets in
first round fraternity "A" com
petition. Phi flamma r.lta
smashing Pi Kappa Phi, 19-7 and
Pioneer House edging Phi Kappa
Psi, 1-0.
This game could develop into
a real contest since the two out
fits are working hard for upsets.
Early season showing can not
mean too much in determining a
winner here, but considering
their two first round opponents'
comparative strength, the Phi
Gams rate a one touchdown edge.
Taus tnd Phi Delts
Field four will draw a huge
crowd as Alpha Tau Omega and
Phi Delta Theta square off in a
return match. The two outfits
reached this contest by dropping
Alpha Gamma Rho and Theta
Chi respectively.
Although the Phi Delts downed
the Taus, 6-0 in regular season
competition, the ATO's are log
ical choices to win this one. The
main reason has been the late
season showing by the two teams.
The Taus rounded out the sea
son by crushing Sigma Alpha
Epsilon 33-6.
This same SAE aggregation
was handing the Phi Delts a 6-0
defeat at the close of the sea
son. The Phi Delt win over the
Theta Chis was none too im
pressive either while the Taui
were flashing power in the AGR
game.
So the Tau rank as favorites,
but watch out here.
All participants of the In
Intramural football playoff
games are urged to start their
contests as early as possible to
prevent having to complete the
games in darkness.
