Bill Glassford chimed in with "the possibility of Reynolds play- Ing is very doubtful faaturday." The fact remains that Reynolds will begin a necessary process of getting back into shape even though he will probably only see "very limited work" for several days at least. The facts will show that Reyn olds hasn't been in a scrimmage since September at the Huskers' training camp, Curtiss. The Husker mentor announced that Reynolds will definitely play in the Mis souri game. "Once I cut a boy from my squad, he is tthrough." That was the an swer Coach Glassford gave fans who were questioning whether Tom Carodine would return to the Nebraska squad this year. The scarlet tutor said he would not reconsider saying that there can btio exceptions. He also claimed that he did not know what Carodine's future plans were. The former all-state football star from Boys Town was the Huskers leading ground gainer with 167 yards and scored the Cornhuskers only touch down against Kansas State to gain a 6-6 tie with the Wildcats. Don Vogt, the other missing link of the past Husker starting back field gave his excuse for giving up the gridiron sport. "I felt that I owed it to myself to get in more study time." Vogt is majoring in physical education and will continue his studies at -the University of South Dakota at Vermillion. Vogt added, 'I wasn't mad at anybody at Ne- 9 -.. . .

By DOUG WILCOX Sports Staff Reporter The first game on the program for the day was the tilt between the Theta Xi's and the Tau Kappa Epsilon. The final score in this game was 20 to 0 in favor of the Theta Xi's. The second tilt of the day was the game between the Sigma Phi Epsilon and the Phi Delta Theta houses. The final score in this contest was 19 to 0 in favor of the Sig Eps. Scoring for the Sig Ep's was Bill Anderson who caught a 35 yard pass from the hands of the Sig Ep passer Ted Pratt. The conversion attempt was unsuccessful so at the half time the score stood at 6 to 0 in favor of the Sig Ep's. The final score in the tilt came in the last of the fourth quarter as Ted Pratt again wound up his throwing arm and sent a pass to Bob Svanda. Pratt proved to the Phi Delts that he could also run by carrying the ball over the goal line for the extra point. A very close game was played between the men of Beta Theta Pi and the Farm House. This game finally resulted in an overtime and a win for the Beta's. The score in this tilt was 8 to 7 in favor of the Betas. The Farm House scored on a 25 yard pass from Rollie Reyn olds to Ray Vlasin. On . the try for conversion Reynolds again passed only to Ray Gard.

The pass aeiense is also getting a thorough workout for the Gopher passing attack. The Huskera will be playln wlthout the services of two starting linemen. George Pay nieh and Tony Winey who will definitely mfcs the Minnesota fray Saturday. Paynich was injured in the Kan sas State game which forced him to miss the Penn State contest. He has been watching Husker work outs from the sidelines with sweat togs. Winey started against the Nittany Lions last Saturday and doctors found tnat what they had previously diagnosed as an ankle sprain was a chipped bone, which may keep him out several weeks. Glassford continues to switch his starting personnel to strengthen the Nebraska potential. On the of fensive team, Glassford has four new faces, while there will be three new defensive starters. Wayne "the Bear" Handshy will see the starting action at the of fen sive left tackle spot. Handshy opened against Kansas State two weeks ago and saw a good amount of action against Penn State last week end. Teaming up with Handshy at the tackle spot will be Dick Regier. Regier was injured against Kansas State and played very little against Penn State. He has been educated for both tackle and end play. Joe Ponsiego will start at the of fensive right guard position. Pon siego was formerly a backfield man last year and was switched to the line to aid the loss of linemen through graduation. Ray Novak will be seeing plenty of action at the starting fullback slot, taking the place of drafted Nick Adduci. Novak is a terror when it comes to hitting that line for valuable plunge plays. Also included on the starting: of fensive team will be Frank Simons and Bill Giles on the ends. Both have been Glassford's chief assets for pass catching duty. George Prohaska will again start at right tackle with Ponsiego. Prohaska's beautful recovery of Don Norris' fumble deep in Penn State territory and running deeper into Lionland was a sign of his fine heads-up football ability. Verl Scott will open at center Saturday. The rugged pivotman is a converted linebacker from last years squad, where he was Nebraska's top pass intercep tion artist. Don Norris will get the call at quarterback and Bob Smith of Grand Island and Johnny Bor dogna will open at the halfbacks. On the defensive alignment. Dick Goll and Ted Connors will. start at ends. Goll started last week's contest and Connors has missed the three opening games this season for eligibility reasons. Connors may be used at end and tackle Glassford revealed. Jerry "the mauler" Minnick and Don Boll will start at defensive tackles. Minnick was a solid wall against the Nittany ' Lions and most of the Penn State comment after the game was praise for Minnick's firy showing. Boll also was tremendous against the Lions. Carl Brassee and Ed Hussman Nebraska Basketball Mentor Must Fill Graduating Posts Coach Harry Good is startine ms iasi-'sz university of Ne braska basketball players through meir nrst drills this week. In seven weeks. Coach Good has to find replacements for Bob Pierce, Lincoln, regular center; Bob Mercier. Lincoln, guard: and Bernard AKromls, Omaha, at for. ward. Paul Kipper, Lincoln, utility guard or forward, and the sixth man on last year's squad also has graduated. Jim Buchanan. Avilla. Ind.. senior guard, and Joe Good, Lin coln, junior forward, are the only two returning starters. One other letterman who re ported Monday was senior Bud Ward, Plamfield, Md., center.

Cliff Hopp will celebrate his return to the squad by opening at linebacker with George Cifra. Hopp has been out for three weeks with an arm injury. Jim Levendusky. Jim Yieslev and Bobby Decker will round out the Husker defensive backfield. Yiesley is only a freshman and made a fine debut Saturday. Decker and Levendusky have been consistently fine thus far this season. The Carodine incident has an- parently served as a notice for academic lagging players on the squad. Most of the players that were called down by Glassford have returned to their regular class routine.

Fire Away By CORK BIEMOND Sports Staff Writer Th liiokv nersons who are journeying to the Minnesota game this weekend .will not be interested in reading the following paragraphs, however, those who are planning to don the gear of the hunter will be most interested. Th lntost information available indicates that many scatter- gunners in Nebraska who are taking to the fields this weekend will be successful in their quest for game. The season starts Friday at noon, and according to a newly filed report by state game warden Art Edmunds of Grand Island there are more large blue geese and white snow geese in central Nebraska this week than have been seen in many many years. Edmunds piloted an aircraft over the central section of the state early this week and from personal observation he stated that this season should be the best ever for nlmrods who enjoy the privilege of eatinr roast goose, providing they can successfully maneuver these tempting targets into shotgun range. Both the duck and geese situation is most promising barring very cold weather in the immediate future. The specific areas around Grand Island, Aurora, York and also along the Missouri river are those mentioned in this report which are considered to be the best place to hunt. Many hundreds of the big birds have been seen in the green wheat fields in this section, as well as along the Platte River. . Although there will be many persons who will hunt along the river and by walking, will hope to sneak up on a bunch of the big honkers by far the most successful hunters of this stately bird will have a special blind built and also will have invested many dollars in decoys and equipment Remember that a federal migratory waterfowl permit is required in addition to a license, and they can be secured at any U. S. Post office, prior to hunting. Rumor has it that there are several sororities that would appre ciate the privilege of enjoying a roast goose dinner with the suc cessful hunters. It does look like a marvelous opportunity for some (of the more social minded male members of the University. .8:45. Ut" .
