A determined Nebraska football team won a moral victory here Saturday when it held the undefeated University of Pittsburgh eleven, conqueror of Army, Notre Dame and Pennsylvania to a 0 to 0 tie in a hard-fought and exciting gridiron battle before a crowd of 27,000 persons in Ideal weather and field conditions. The Cornhuskers not only stopped the great Pittsburgh of fense but outplayed the easterners most of the way, putting it up to the Panthers to halt the Ne-braskana when, according to pre- game forecasts, it should have been up to the Huskers to stop the Panthers. Only One Real Threat. Onlv once in the entire contest did the invaders really threaten, that being in the third quarter when the home team took the ball on downs on its own 13-yard strips after Heller, Reider and Weinstock of the Pittsburgh backfield had unloosed one of their two or three impressive drives of the entire game. Taking the bah on their own 24-yard line, the visitors went down the field, to a first down on the Nebraska 15-yard line.

But here four plays netted only two yards Huskers tQok tf)e baU Th9 -ttemnt to score fc over Ua a 27-yard jaunt by the same player over the other tackle. In the last half the Panther made two other offensive gestures in a manner that was Impressive opponent Corn. relaxed a wee bit. But the Corn huskers never let up. Turn About.

Nor did the Pittsburgh outfit when Nebraska threatened. The Panther defense was no less stanch when it faced Nebraska' best scoring chance, which came tn the second ouarter. The home players received a punt in midfield and moved up for a first down on their enemy's 6-yard stripe, 22-yard run by Sauer from a faka pass formation and a forward flip, Sauer to Masterson which waa good for a total of 19 yards, being the biggest contributing factors in the goal ward march. Mathia made three yards on a wide end run and cutback, Sauer made only a yard on two plunges and a forward pass was grounded over the goaliine for a touchback, causing the ball to change hands. For the most part the Nebraa-kans had their opponents pushed back In their own territory.

This was especially true In the first half In which the home team made seven earned first downs to tha easterners' one. Numerous times the Cornhuskers moved down to within 20 yards of the coveted Pittsburgh goal, but here the in vading defense always stiffened and turned back the best enorts of Coach Dana X. Bible's men. Sauer Tosses Passes. Nebraska did have an excellent chance at the start of the second quarter, when after obtaining a first down on the Pitt za-yara line, Sauer propelled a forward pass Into Masterson's hands on the 3-yard line, but he fumbled when tackled and the effort went for an Incompleted pass.

It was Dad's day here and the Iowa team played its heart out to make a game of it with one of the most powerful rivals the country can produce. The chilled spectators who sat until the final pun will testify to the fight waged by Ossie Eolem's Hawkeyes. No Chance. Iowa had no chance to win. That was evident from the very start and from the way those dy-, riamic Boilermaker backs ran interference there seemed to be little chance of stopping- Purdue snywhere short of a topheavy victory.

Oklahoma univer sity, led by a hard-driving half back by the name of Simms had slightly the better of the, going with Iowa State in an exciting hard fought grid battle here Saturday afternoon, the Sooners winning by the score of 19 to 12. This boy Simms failed to cross the Iowa State goaliine but he did most of the ball totine for the Sooners and -several times broke through for long gains. It was Simms who raced through Iowa State's right side of the line and sprinted 30 yards before he was grounded on the Cyclone 2-yard line In the third period.

Otherwise. Michigan would have won 6 to 0, which would have more fairly represented the comparative strength of the two teams.

The run represent ed the highest art, and in that re spect was the best return of a kick I have seen In years. In Last Minute. The second touchdown was made bv Newman with only seconds to play. Newman has previously tried two forward passes and Chicago, expecting another, played loosely in her backfield defense and New man with fine Interference swept around Chicago's right end for 27 yards and the score.
