Bobby Reynolds, the countries
first maior football injury of the
1951 season was put through light
crimmage during the Cornhusker t
secret practice session Wednesday -afternoon.
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-

vorites to garner all-American
honors have been hurt and will

gridiron play.
Nebraska's Bobby Reynolds has
already missed the first three

The first game on the program
for the day was the tilt between
the Theta Xi's and the Tau Kappa

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

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.

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.

25 yard pass from Rollie Reyn
olds to Ray Vlasin. On . the try
for conversion Reynolds again
passed only to Ray Gard. This
was the last of the Farm House
scoring for the day.
The winners scored on a 20
yard pass from Beta quarteback
Bud Wiederspan to Pete Peters.
This pass was the climax of a
series of 5 pass plays from the
Beta's own 20 yard line.
The extra point was a combi
nation of Wiederspan to Tom
Harrington and made the score
all tied up 7 to 7 at the end of
the final quarter.

yards. Robertson leads Colo
rado's Zack Jordan, who has hit

work Minnesota Dlavs behind
closed gates Wednesday. 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.

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.
