in uie iuo lootbi'.il opener
for
coin ciuds on CU's scenic Folsom
iieja.
The Buff? will be shootln
for their tenth straight victory
at home and a new record in
that department. San Jose's
visitor are hoping: to tee off
rifht after dropping: seven of
ten decisions In 1951. It will be
the first meeting: in history be
tween the two teams.
A crew of 32 lettcrmen, includ
ing Diue riDDon tailbacks Zack
Jordan, Ron Johnson and Carroll
Hardy, will move to the firing
line for Colorado. It will be one
of the best seasoned squadrons
Coach Dal Ward has been
leged to field In his five-year stay
The veteran Buffs are backed
by 32 more eager youngsters,
many of them highly-promising-sophs
who will be irlvcn their
vanity baptism in this fracas.
Ward hat had his club at the
grindstone for three weeks, most
of the time spent in twice-a-day
drills. His findings in early
scrimmage sessions have
brought about several changes
In ft lineup listed as "probable"
J last spring.
In the offensive backfield, Ward
win nave noger Williams at quar
lerDack, Jordan at tailback, the
popular half-pint, Woody Shelton,
at wfrigback and big Ralph Curtis
hi luiiDacK. Backing them will be
a quartet of Lee Venzke, Ron
Johnson or Carroll Hardy, Frank
Bernardi and Bill Horton.
Up front, tall, pass-grabbing
Gary Knafelc has won hands down
In his battle for the left flank Job,
while letterman Tom Evans will
work at right end. Bill Allen, a
senior with two battle stars, coes
at left tackle, and the other slot
probably will be allotted to junior
ie Marshall, who has come up
me nara way in squad sklrmfshes.
Lettermen Jack Swigert and Dick
Knowlton will be the starting
guards with Ken Huffer the prob
able pivot.
Ward, who hadn't planned to
platoon his men extensively,
nonetheless has tapped two sep
arate units for starting offense
defense action. There still will
be several two-way performers,
among them all-conference end
Don B r a n b y, all-conference
halfback Tom Brookshier, Don
Greenwood, Hardy, Bernardi,
Johnson, Venzke, Buffer and
Hunt.
San Jose, whfch owns Wo of
the coast's finest T-formation
quarterbacks in Lynn Aplanalp
. and Jerry Hamilton, is being re
. garded by coach writers as "tough
for anybody."
OThe Spartans will invade with
a "junior team," after having
waded through a strenuous 1951
schedule with 33 sophs and fresh
men in the fold. Coach Bob Bron
zan, himself a youngster, has in
vited Colorado football fans to
"come out and see a pretty fair
" ball club that likes to throw the
ball around and can score."
Even so, only a fair crowd is
expected to see the Buffs parade
to the post for the opener. Many
are holding out for next week's

GUNNING FOR THE COYOTES ... Bob Reynolds, who set a national scoring record In 1950 as a sophomore and made most All
America selections at his left halfback position, is reported In top condtion for the South Dakota game. Reynolds, who was hobbled
by injuries during most of the 1951 season, will be game captain Saturday afternoon. A senior this year, Reynolds is bound to make a
great comeback. He is one of the top passers and punters listed on the Husker line-up, as well as the main scoring threat on the
ground. Reynolds holds down the left halfback position on T formation plays, and runs, kicks and passes from the tailback spot when
the Cornhusker team uses the spread formation.
following. He ordered 30 tickets,
all for his family!
While Bill will lead the way
at Illinois he'll not be the only
Cyclone with a following at the

who have not done so already,
are to take physicals next Tues

M
U Reserves Add
Strength To Varsity
One of the most gratifying de
velopments in the University of
Minnesota football camp since the
opening of fall practice Sept. 3
has been the progress made by
players who were in the "deep
reserve category last season.
Clint Andrus, an all-city
tackle at Mineapolis Southwest
high, failed to show the ex
pected "stuff" as a freshman tn
1951, but began to impress the
staff in spring practice this year
and in the past two weeks has
"blossomed out" into a good
tackle. The 6 foot inch, 215
pound sophomore is now ranked
as a No. 2 defensive tackle and
may move higher during the
season ahead.
Phil McElroy, sophomore end
from Preston, was far down the
ranks last fall, but is slated for
extensive duty both offensively
and defensively this fall. He looks
the part of an end with his 6 foot
3 inch frame and 185 well-distributed
pounds. The coaching
staff comments that he has made
great progress in the past 10 days.
McElroy's high school teammate
at Preston, Buzz Meighen, was
used only sparsely in the '51 cam
paign, but now seems to be rap
idly mastering the duties of a
right halfback. Coach Wes Fes-
ler predicts that he will be of
great value this fall, alternating
with Kermit Klefsaas in the wing
back spot which has been a con
sistent Minnesota headache for
years.
Chuck Stamschror, rugged 6
foot 1 inch 200-pounder from
Kellogg wasn't included on the
varsity roster a year ago, but
now probably rates the tag of
"most improved sophomore."
He is a fixture at center line
backer in the defensive unit.
Fred Techel, an impressive
physical specimen at 6 feet 1 Inch
and 190 pounds, saw only a few
moments of offensive action in
'51, but now ranks as No. 1 un
derstudy to Paul Giel, Minnesota's
record-breaking left halfback. Af
ter a slow start this fall, the rangy
sophomore from Milwaukee found
himself in scrimmage ' day after
day while Giel and Dale Quist

Writers,
Editors
Predict
Your sports experts are again
predicting football games this
year. Although most opening
games are one-sided this season,
a few of the games are decidedly
toss-up contests.
Ten Daily Nebraskan writers
and former sports editors are
picking your winners this year.
They are Glenn Nelson, Chuck
Klasek, Bart Brown, Howard
Vann, Maury Lip ton, Bob Serr,
Marshall Kushner, Klmon Kar
abatsos, Bill Mundell, Ed Berg
and Arnie Stern.
The games 'in question this
week are Kansas-TCU, Maryland
Missouri, K-fatate-B r a d l e y,
UCLA - Oregon, Towa State-So.
Dak. State, Colorado-San Jose
State, Texas-LSU, Arkansas-Okla.
A&M, Georgia Tech-Citadel and
Villanova-Kentucky.
All eleven predictors agreed
that Maryland, Iowa State,
were sidelined with injuries,

and
cut
loose with some power runni;
that brought repeated praise from
the coaching staff.
Another 1951 "deep reserve"
who has soared to the fore this
fall is Percy Zachary, 5 foot 11
inch, 200 pound junior from St.
Paul. The industrious Negro lad
was completely unnoticed on
the squad in his Initial try last
season, but made progress dur
ing spring workouts and now
rates as No. 1 defensive right
tackle.

Kentucky would win their re
spective contests.

and Stern picked Kansas over
TCU; Vann, Lipton and Karabat

"We're playing only one game

Glassford made no comment as
to the type team which South Da
kota will field, only "They've go,
a football team, and we're going
to play 'cm."
Although no word has been

Coyets work the majority of
their plays from a split "T" for
