Thursday, September 27, 1951 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN PAGE 3 Theta Xi's, Betas, ZBT's Win Intramural Football Contests By DOUG WILCOX Sports Staff Reporter Rain, mud, wind or mist, these intramural squads just can't be downed. The games scheduled fort Tuesday were played on schedule, although the playing field was a lake of mud, j Eight teams participated in the first 1951 Intramural football: schedule. The teams were Alpha Gamma Rho, Beta Theta Pi, Theta XI, Pi Kappa Phi, Zeta Beta Tau, Delta Sigma Pi, Delta Sigma Phi and Acacia. Although the weather was dull the action in the games was not, The line play of the teams was rugged, and the backfield play was sparkling. ' Here's just the way the games were , played, the toys who made the touchdowns, and the outstanding plays or players in the individual games. The first tame of the season was the tilt between Alpha Gamma Rho and Beta Theta Pi. This game did not have the ideal playing conditions, but it did have lots of excitement. The only touchdown which A.G.R. made was made by a 20 yard pass from Ingle to Musenn. The score of this tilt was 13 to 6 in favor of the Beta Theta Pi. The Betas scored twice in the game. Since the playing field was very hard to run on with out fall ing down, the intramural squads used a lot of pass plays. Harlan Wiederspahn of the Betas passed for the two touch downs. One touchdown pass to Ron Smaha and the other pass to Bob Howey. The one extra point was also made by Wieder spahn. The victors, the Betas, believe that the outstanding player was Wiederspahn. The second game to be played was the tilt between the Theta Xi and the Pi Kappa Phi. This game had a lot of touch downs for the score was 32 to 0 in favor of the Thetas. This is the highest scoring contest so far this year. There is no record of who made the touchdowns, but the outstand ing players were Bob Bale, Andy Boris and Al Blaha. The most outstanding play of the game was the play in which Blaha, while being covered by three opposing players sprang into the air and snared a pass flung by Bale. Next on the schedule was the game between Zeta Beta Tau and the Delta Sigma Pi. After a close game, the ZBT's emerged winners over the Delta Sigs. The final score, was 7 to 0. The touchdown was made by intercepting of a Delta Sig pass by Marvin Sulvalsky. The extra point was made by a pass from Justin Horwich to Jerry Wolpa. The most outstanding of the 1 coming victors was Horwich, With the mist still down, the Delta Sigma Phi boys played the boys from the Acacia house. The Delta Sig team lead all the way in the game until the last three minutes, when a team that just couldn t be beat came from behind to win a heartbreaker from the Delta Sigs. The final score In the game was 12 to 7. Acacias blocked a kick of the Delta Sigs and after a pass from Don Sercy to Tat Allen. The game was 7 to 6. In the last few plays of the game the Delta Sigs were on the 7-yard line when they fum bled the ball and Chuck Miner of the Acacias recovered the ball in the end xone to win the game 12 to 7. The outstanding player of the game was Don Sercy of the Acacia. Since the purpose of intramural athletics is to develop good sports menship, the sports staff is offer ing a trophy to the outstanding intramural football player. inis is tne way in which the trophy will be awarded. Each team in the intramural football league will elect a favorite squad member. These squad favorites will be sent to the Daily Nebras kan office where the most out standing player will be picked by the sports department The Benchwarmer By MARSHALL RUSHER Assistant Sports Editor While topics of conversation these days center around who is going to win Saturday afternoon's contest, flags continue to fly at naif mast at tne united btates Military Academy in West Point, New xorK as tne Army football team prepares to meet Villanova. Several months ago everything would point to an Army romp over the Villanova team, and most of the rest of the teams on the army schedule this year, but Coach Earl Blaik's team was dealt a staggering blow in the scandal whereby 90 cadets were sent to the showers for "cheating" on an examination. The nucleus of the cadets football team was included in the rather pungent scandal. It's only a matter of personal opinion and morals concern ing the action taken by the school on the Hudson big-wigs and also the congressional recommendations made, but in one man's opinion, the cadets got a raw deal. In the first place, the jury handed down the guilty label to the charge of "cheating." Not only will that go down as one of the largest "cheating" sessions in any school's history, but also ranks with one or Joe Miller's funniest jokes! ir there were such some it comes more wouia pe tne least miormed on the subject. There are so many ways and means of "cheating" that vary in their "immoral" values. that it would be difficult to give the cadets such a rough sentence unless a thorough study of "cheating" itself must be investigated. Everyone "cheats" at some time or other during the duration of their four college years. We do not intend to have this article interpreted as encouraging students to "cheat," however this writer was almost coaxed to circulate a petition around the various cam puses of the country asking for the signatures of those students who have "cheated" on examinations. This would be done in the fullest confidence of gaining overwhelming percentage of students that have "cheated" on any tests. Everyone doesn't "cheat" perhaps, but there are many peo ple who "cheat" and don't even know it. The student is not en tirely immune from cheating, as a matter of fact he controls a good share of the "cheating" done in college.

I am no ardent baseball fan, but my in terest is always aroused when the teams are earnestly trying to cut each others throat. In the National league, Brook lyn and the Giants are waging a rugged battle with the Durocher men at a slight disadvantage. Leo (The Lip) and his crew can not afford to lose a single game out of their remaining three, while the Dodgers can lose one and still take the title. I Your truly Is for the Giants. Any team that can be at one j time during the campaign 13V4 games back and then battle to a fighting position - sear the top deserves both the praise and backing of the baseball world. The Giants, according to Durocher, don't know how to quit and it's a cinch they won't till that final day. The New York Yankees should take the American league crown unless they suffer a complete col- dent to take "crib notes" or helpers to aid their memory on theU S ' Z f TT finer points of the chapter. tfi A teacher can "cheat" on a test by giving the same tests year i S GeoVce ProhaskV tarkl after year.

What I'm driving at is "cheating is a very general term. It is applicable to varying degrees and various situations. There is no point in arguing the advantages or disadvantages of the honor system, which the Military Academy employs. There is a point in the method officials at the cadet school place their cadets on some lofty pedestal and live in their own little Utopia. Naturally their eyes became blurry when the underhanded political actions take their course at West Point. Webster would probably use the term "hypocrite" here. I dont Intend to make any excuses for the cadets, nor can I even claim that I know what degree of "cheating" the cadets, who are the first "future and past generals" of this country, were caught at, but I do know the penalty they received wasn't Just. Assuming that the cadets did "cheat," they should have been dropped from the football roster, or perhaps given some type of disciplinary penalty, but to be given the heave-ho from school never! !

This will be the entire offensive alignment for the Husk ers this Saturday when the Husk ers collide with the Texas Chris tian Horned Frogs with the ex ception of Bobby Reynolds half back position. Starting at the left halfback spot will be Don Vogt of Water town, S. D., upon whose shoul ders rest a great deal of the scarlet offensive burden.

"up mentally alter tneir victory over the Colorado Ag gies last Saturday, the Buffs hope to be better than the thir-teen-point underdogs which they wt-re rated earlier this week.

It will be the season opener for the Wild cats, who are rated by many as the possible surprise package of the Big Ten. Buif defensive hopes rose -considerably during the week with big Jack Jorgenson back in tip top shape after missing the opener with a wrenched knee. The 235-pound giant is sure to be a tough nut for Wildcat backs to crack. Also on the ailing list during the past several days was Merv Hodel, considered by many as potential All -American caliber. Stricken with the flu immedi ately after last week's en counter, Hodel missed the first few practice sessions f the week. However, he's back in togs and hope to get his initial from Rockford. Many fans from the Chicago area will be seeing these boys in action again after watching them perform first in local high school circles.

George Figner, speedy defensive safety man, incurred a summer and was taeky enough to view a White Sox-Cleveland doubleheader. At that time it was apparent to me that the In dians have great potential ma terial, but their chances for grabbing the pennant flag are about a year away. By that time the old and decrepit Yankees wilt really be old and decrepit with the title door left open for Cleveland to walk ia to. The White Sox rained a whale of experience this year and along with the Red Sox could really make that junior circuit race a terror.
