Coffin, on the other hand, has been a barrel of fire at fullback. The 195-pound Copiague, Long Is land senior has been running with fine power and showing good speed for a bucking back.

The Corn huskers are not rated high nationally, but are sure to make some of the bookmakers eat their betting slips on a few of these approaching Saturday afternoons. Win, lose or draw, the University student body is behind Jennings 100. Proof of this will be shown at both the Washington State and Oklahoma games. Xext Saturday a deafening roar will greet the grid ders as they take the field for the first time this season and on November 23 another deafening roar of support will shake Memorial Stadium as the Cornhuskers leave the field for the last time this season. Unbelievers need only purchase season tickets and they can see Nebraska spirit at its best. Welcome to the limelight. Bill Jennings, and we only hope you stay longer than Pete did. Chiefs come through ii clutch ... The Lincoln Chiefs came through to cop the Western League pen nant in almost unbelievable style. Trailing Amarillo by 2 games with only 3 contests remaining, they nipped the Gold Sox by one game by winning all three of their last games with Topeka. This second championship in a row must make Dick Wagner very happy, especially the fact that 4.800 fans turned out for Sunday night's pennant clincher.
