Is designed to give the squad a
rest from the two-a-day practice
sessions that have been in vogue
since the start of fall camp. The
rest will be brief, however, be
cause Elliott has two drills for
Thursday.
Quarterbacks Roy Stinnett,
George Harshman and Gordon
Englert have been rotating with
the first three units the past few
days. Pete explained this as a
move to acquaint the units with
each signal caller. "In case of in
juries, drills can continue to pro
ceed without a hitch since each
team will be familiar with the en
tire quarterback corps," said El
liott. Since the coaching staff plans
to substitute by the team system
this will probably take care of
any problems that arise in the
quarterback ranks.
Elliott plans a full dress scrim
mage Saturday afternoon. This
will be the last of the rough stuff
before the Cornhuskers tangle with
the Coyotes in Memorial Stadium.
Halfbacks Bennie Dillard and
Willie Greenlaw are doubtful start
ers for the Saturday leather-popping
session. Dillard has been nurs
ing a twisted knee while Green
law has been limping on a sprained
ankle.
Don Erway, a doubtful starter
the whole season is still with the
team in spite of the rumors that
have been circulating that he was
through with the gridiron sport. Al
though the Lincoln senior has not
been suited up for workouts he
has been working on his bad knees
and still is part of the squad ac
cording to Elliott.
Dick Prusia, junior center from
Granklin, was boosted to the num
ber two unit in an effort to give
him a little more experience. Oth
er changes listed by Elliott Tues
day saw Don Rhoda moved to the
second team right tackle slot. Mai
Dohrman was moved from right
to left tackle of the third unit.
This move was also made for the
purpose of adding experience.
Injuries have hampered the
workouts considerably since that
start of fall practice. This has
been especially true among the
halfbacks. Dean Fleck of Ericson
is the only half that has not been
injured in some way since prac
tice began. Greenlaw and Dillard
who were slated to carry the mall
for the first unit have been out
of action for several days and
their availability is still doubtful.
Darrel Pinkston suffered a con
cusion in last Saturday's scrim
mage but has recovered. Bill
Hawkins and Larry Naviaux have
missed earlier sessions with mi
nor hurts.

coming student managers in foot
ball are urged to report this week.

First Five Foes
Test For Huskers
By ABE BLURSTEIN
Staff Sporti Writer
Nebraska meets Four non-conference
opponents this season be
sides the six conference teams
during the ten game gridiron sea
son. Pete Elliott's Huskers open the
season against the Coyotes from
South Dakota University coached
by Ralph Stewart. The Big Red
has met the Coyotes 14 times
since 1899 and holds an 11 won, 1
lost, 2 tied record. The last time
the two teams met was in the
opening game of the 1952 season
when the Cornhuskers swamped
their neighbor to the north 46-0.
The last time the SoDaks man
aged a victory was in the first
game played in the series in 1899
when they edged A. E. Branch's
squad 6-5. In 1909 and again in
1914 the two teams fought to dead
locks. Since then, the Coyotes have
managed only 12 points in seven
games while the Huskers have
piled up 262.
The following Saturday, Septem
ber 29, finds the Big Red in Ohio
Stadium at Columbus, Ohio for an
encounter with the Ohio State
Buckeyes. The two teams have
met only once and that was last
year. In that game the Huskers
fought the Bucks on even terms
only to have All-American Hopa
long Cassidy break up the ball
game with his devastating run
ning. Ohio State wound up on top
of the 28-20 score.
October 6 finds the Iowa State
Cyclones in Lincoln for the open
ing of the Big Seven Conference
battle. Vince Di Francesca hopes
to have his team ready in hopes
of winning the ninth contest in a
series which the Big Red has won
41 while tieing 1. The last time
the Cyclones managed a victory
was in 1945 when they downed the
Huskers 27-7.
The following week the Kansas
State Wildcats journey to Memor
ial Stadium for the Huskers' sec
ond conference battle. The Cats
will be missing several of the
stalwarts that sparked their cam
paigns the last three seasons.
Gone from Bus Mertes' squad are
such men as Jim Furey and Doug
Roether who bulwarked the team
during the 1955 season.
An old face reappears on Me
morial Stadium sod on October
20. Bernie Crimmins Indiana Hoo
siers return after an absence of
five years. The Hoosiers hold a
seven to three edge while three
games have ended in a tie.
The first five games will prob
ably tell the story for the remain
der of the season which is the first
for Husker coach Pete Elliott.
