When the Huskers open their 1952 Big Seven campaign Sat'
urday against the Iowa State Cyclones, they will be boasting a two
game winning streak. This record no doubt seems unimpressive to
ine average grid lan, but when you consider .last year's record com
piled by almost the same Husker team, it's a great improvement.
The Scarlet team last chalked up two consecutive wins during
the 1950 season. Now, with all-America halfback Bob Reynolds
back in the fold and rambling at his best, they look hard to
atop.
Coach Bill Glassford's NU gridders have racked up a respect
able average In their two victories. By trouncing little South Da
kota 46-0 and then clipping favored Oregon 28-13, the Huskers
displayed rugged offensive and defensive units which rank high
in national circles. They wound up six in the nation in rushing
offense this week with an average of 339 yards per game, 12th in
total offense with a 414-yard average, and seventh in total de
fense, having allowed the opposition only 147 yards per contest.
Reynolds, who has scampered to three touchdowns and kicked
eight extra points in 11 conversion attempts, ranks first among con
ference scorers with a total of 26 points. He is 14th in the country
in rushing with 176 yards on 29 tries. That gives him an average of
6.1 yards per carry.
Huskers Jim Yeisley, Ray Novak and Bob Smith are close be
hind with averages of 6.0, 5.9 and 5.6 yards. Smith missed the Ore
gon fray because of an injured foot but is expected to be ready to see
action at his starting right halfback slot by game time Saturday.
Reynolds was used sparingly both against the Sodak eleven
and at Portland. Glassford used the one-sided Coyote game to
his advantage by allowing his reserves to gain valuable experi
ence, thus limiting the performance of his starters. A slight Char
ley horse slowed Reynolds at Oregon, causing the NU taskmaster
to bench the Husker star during most of the game. He Is slated
to be in action against the Cyclones, however. '
Iowa State, still smarting from their 33-7 licking from Illinois
last week, are expected to give the Huskers a tough battle, especially
along the aerial lanes. Dick Mann, feared Cyclone passing ace, com
pleted 22 of 40 pass attempts against Nebraska last year. Four of
his flips netted touchdowns.
Five thousnd bleacher tickets are still available for the Iowa
State-Nebraska game, according to Business Manager A. J. Lewan
dowskj. All stadium tickets have been sold, the last two thousand
being picked up Monday and Tuesday following the victory at Ore
gon. There will be a knothole section.
NU Passing Ace
21-21 Buff -Sooner Tie
Rated Top Grid Game
By BART BROWN
Sports Staff Writer
The mighty Sooners from Ok
lahoma University saw their rec
ord of 26 straight victories in Big
Seven play crumble Saturday as
they barely managed to tie a.i in
spired Colorado University team
21-21.
Zack Jordan was the big gun
in the Buffalo offense as he ran,
passed and kicked Colorado to
a bright spot in football history.
Jordan scored all three Colo
rado touchdowns and repeatedly
kept the Sooners in the hole on
his brilliant quick kick, one car
rying 78 yards.
Billy Vessels scored Oklahoma's
tieing touchdown to climax a 78
yard Sooner drive with 1:51 of
the game remaining.
Kansas University experienced
a long afternoon, before wiping
out Santa Clara's 9-7 half-time
lead and winning 21-9. Gil Reich
repeated his fine performance of
last Saturday by scoring the touch
down that put the Hawks ahead
on a 70 yard punt return.
Santa Clara was a two-touchdown
underdog, but threatened
all the way, missing two scor
ing opportunities in the final
minute at a time when the KU
lead was only 14-9.
Kansas University's vaunted
passing game was a major disap
pointment, as it succeeded in com
pleting two of ten passes for 15
yards. Their ground attack left
nothing to be asked, however, as
Bob Brandeberry and John Konek
ran brilliantly.
Missouri's spread formation puz
zled the" Bears from California
for a time, but the running of
fullback Johnny Olszewski and his
mates succeeded in halting Mis
souri 28-14.
The Tigers gave Cal a battle
throughout the game, but' heat,
manpower and brilliant running
were the margin of victory for
the Bears.
Terry Roberts, Missouri's left
guard, was the standout lineman
California's candidate for ail
American, Olszewski, and team
mates Don Johnson and Bill Pow
ell repeatedly crashed through
Missouri defenses as Cal chalked
up 411 yards on the ground.
Michigan State had to do it
the hard way as they overcame
a 13-0 Michigan lead to win 27-13.
A superb Michigan University of
fense gained a 13-0 lead in the
first quarter, but State fought
back to lead 20-13 as the half
ended.
Tom Yewcic filled In the
shoes of departed all-American
Al Darrow as he cooly threw
for 11 completions out of 14
pass attempts. This added to his
field generalship easily made
him the main cog in a powerful
Spartan offense
Washington surprised Minne
sota with a potent ground attack
as they scored a 19-13 triumph.
1950 all-American quarterback
Don Heinrich passed only 15 times
for 8 completions, but was a con
stant threat that loosened the
Gopher defense for long drives.

KEY OF THE "T" . . . John Bordogna, pivot man for the Corn
huskers, leads Coach Bill Glassford's passers in completions and is
second in the rushing department. Bordogna, who starts on both
offense and defense for the Huskers, made a spectacular 66-yard
touchdown jaunt against Oregon last Saturday. He scored two
TD's against the Webfeet in that game. ,
The Other Six
Kansas State . .
It may be a little early in the
season, but it s beginning to looK
like Bill Meek made a good move
when he junked the single wing
offense at Kansas State and
handed the split-T to his Wild
cats.
The Wildcats meet their first
Big Seven foe, Missouri, at
Manhattan Saturday and it
could be a wide open clash.
Kansas State wasn't too impres-
Dick Mann completed one pass
sive in downing Bradley, 21-7,
but the Wildcats improved while
bowing to Cincinnati, 13-5, Sat
urday.
For Missouri, the game will be
the first of three outings in which
the Tigers will be on fairly even
grounds.
The decision to change from
the single-wing to the split-T
was a tough one for Meek, who
learned the single-wing under
Bob Neyland of Tennessee. But
several things finally made up
his mind.
First of all Meek talked the
whole thing over with Jim Tatum,
his former boss at Maryland. Meek
also remembered the good show
Maryland put on in defeating Ten
nessee in the 1952 Sugar Bowl,
Meek also was impressed with
the speed and ball handling of
several of his backs, who were
winners in Big Seven track meets
The Wildcats prepared for Mis
souri in their first workout of the
week by polishing up their tim
ing on offensive plays. Two of
their players rejoined the team.
Auggie Keller and Larry Harts
horn, out for two weeks, returned
to action.

in the books following some very
spirited action.
Defending AU-U nlversity
champion Sigma Phi Epsllon
started the new year right
where it left off. The Slg Eps,
who defeated Sigma Alpha Ep
silon for the fraternity "A"
crown last year by a 6-0 count,
found the Sig Alps a much
easier prey this time and won
handily to a tune of 21-6.

the defending champs. The lone
oig upn xany was pushed across
near the end of the contest.
No record of who did the scor
ing was found on the score sheet
but the result stands as a Sig'Ep
victory.
The 1950 All-U title-holder
also got off on the right foot as
Delta Tau Delta found the im

and edged Sigma Chi
by a 14-12 score.

the Sigs had fought from behind
and were carrying a 12-7 lead.
Th Delts scored first as Bnh
Toolev ScamDered across tho
double strips in the opening stanza
and then also accounted for the
all-important point. The Sigs
snapped right back with single
tallies in the next two periods,
Dick Duerr and Ben Leonard car

stood up ana appeared to be
enough until Skalla's game-win

Phi Delta Theta pushed across
a touchdown in the third quar
ter and made it stand up for a
7-0 win over Alpha Tau Omega.
Nothing more could be obtained
from the score sheet.
A 32-yard pass from Miller
Whltham to Tom Harrington with
only 41 seconds to play provided
Beta Theta Pi with a 12-6 victory
over Theta Xi. With third down
and two yards needed for a first
down, the Betas chanced the long
one and Harrington made a spec
tacular catch between two TX de
fenders for the victory.
Theta XI ad fought an uphill
battle to tie the score at 6-6 late
in the third period and fought
the victors to a standstill
throughout the remainder of the
fray, with the exception of those
fateful few seconds.
Al Blaha gathered in a Bob
Bale pass of 18 yards and dashed
the remaining four for the tying
tally. Bob Howie gave the Betas

Students on the campus will
gather around television sets for
the next four days at least to
watch the New York Yankees and
Brooklyn Dodgers square off in
the 1952 World Series.
The Series opens today with a
two-game stand in Ebbetts
Field. Friday, Saturday, and
Sunday if necessary, the games
will be played in Yankee Sta
dium. If sixth and seventh
games are needed, they will be
played on the Dodgers' home
grounds.
Headed by their big chief. Allie
Reynolds, Casey Stengel's mound
staff, 11 strong, is a well rested
crew as they prepare for the first
game today.
The Dodgers pitching corps,
too, is well rested but there the
resemblance ends. Joe Black, their
j phenomenal rookie, drew the
opening game assignment against
Reynolds largely on the strength
of his excellent 15-4 record in
'relief.

IM Scorers
Aid Coverage
All intramural football mana
gers are asked to assign compe
tent men to the job .of scoring
their grid contests. One man from
each team should work jointly
and properly note the names of
all scorers and the manner and
distance the points were scored as
well as the proper order the tal
lies were made. The more de
tailed the scoring, the more com
plete will be the Daily Nebraskan
stories of those games.
their initial lead with a leaping
catch of a short Whitham pass in
the first quarter.
Phi Kappa Psi roared to a 33-12
opening day triumph over Kappa
Sigma on the pitching arm of Bob
Bachman. The losers scored first
and last but in between it was too
much Phi Psi. Thirteen points in
the first stanza, six in the second
and 14 in the third frame pro
duced the Phi Psi win.
No record of individual per
formances was found on the
score sheet with the exception
of the third Phi Psi tally which
came on a 26-yard Bachman to
Bob Brlttin pass play.
A six-yard pass from Tom Tolen
to Carl Weber in the final minutes
gave Delta Upsilon a hard-fought
i-v victory over Farm House.
Tolen was also on the throwing
end of the point as Jack Beecham
captured this toss in a game that
saw both teams fight to a draw
for three and a half quarters.
Only goose-eggs was recorded
for the initial three stanzas arid it
appeared the game might go into
yardage play until the late Tolen
directed surge carried the DU's to
victory.
Phi Gamma Delta had every
thing: their own way in their
opening contest as they blasted
Sigma Nu on a 33-0 count. Don
Bedker and Ladd H&nscom each
tallied twice for the Fijis as they
ran and passed their way over
and around the bewildered Nu's.
Ed Schmitt scored the fifth Phi
Gam TD and notched an extra
point as Ron Raitt counted two.
The victors started off fast and
rang up a quick seven points in
the opening minutes of play and
never let the Nu's get within
striking distance as they added
another in the second and 13 more
in the third period.
Delta Sigma Phi provided the
only mar on the opening day slate
as only two men appeared and
were forced to forfeit to Alpha
Gamma Rho.
All managers are instructed
that they are responsible for get
ting competent scorers for their
games. The score sheets should
contain the first and last names
of all men entering the game
and the score by quarters on
the front side and aH scoring on
the reverse side of the sheets.
The scoring should contain the
names of all men making the
points plus the distance they run
and all men responsible for scor
ing pass plays including the dis
tance. The more detailed the score
sheet is kept, the more complete
will be the write-up each day in
the Daily Nebraskan as it is im
possible to have a reporter for
each of eight games every day.
