MONDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 16; 1938 MONITOR-INDEX AND PAGE NEBRASKA FACES MORE TROUBLE Kansas Aggies Reach Amazing-, Form Just as Husk? ers Take Beating TIGERS MAY WIN SECOND PLACE By WHITNEY MARTIN KANSAS CITY, Nov. 16 IP appeared to be a breeze for Nebraska in the game which will give the Buskers a clear claim to the Big Six title if they win, today loomed as a tornado. Kansas State, the' team which can tie for the crown by defeating the Huskers at Lincoln next Saturday, popped up last day with a roaring which swamped a willing but Iowa State eleven, 17 to 7. Nebraska defeated the. same team by only 34 to 0, which wa? considered the ultimate Jn conference scoring until yesterday's exhibition.

The Kansas Staters will have the added advantage of catching the Huskero after a game in they were forced to give everything and take only a lick- Ing. Only Conference Game The game is the only confer-" ence encounter on this week's program: Ivy-draped rivalries take up the time of Oklahoma, Iowa State and Missouri. Oklahoma meets A. Iowa State plays Drake and Missouri enter- tains Washington University. Four conference teams found "the victory road last Saturday paved with carpet tacks.

Kansas lost to Michigan State, 41 to Oklahoma bowed to Missouri, 21 to 14, in a game which had Sooner patrons' hearts alternately in their throats and their shoes; Iowa State lost very emphatically Kansas State, and Nebraska, the pride and joy of the confer- ence, couldn't stand prosperity lost to Pittsburgh, ,19 to 6. A Triumph For Frye The Missouri-Oklahoma game was a personal triumph for Jack Tiger quarterback, who did everything but run out and make a nice, clean tackle of himself when he had the ball. He accounted for 15 points in the game which saw the die-hard Sooners come from behind twice to tie the score, only to have Mr. Frye stage a one-man parade in the waning moments to sew up the game. The victory gives Missouri a ance at second place, depending on its ability to defeat Kansas and Nebraska's ability to defeat Kansas State.

The defeat of Nebraska was not so much of a surprise as the manner iii which it was accomplished. Panthers, playing with robot-like precision, saw the Huskers take a six-point lead in the second period on a Francis- Cardwell pass, then came back to iron touchdowns in the same period and add smother in the final quarter to send 36,000 deflated fans home wondering what Nebraska has to have to beat Pittsburgh besides a good football team and a hearty desire. Kansas Tries Sophs Ad Lindsey, with this season fiown in the Kansas books as the year of the big- drought, urged hj sophomoric Jayhawks into action against Michigan State to pick up experience for next year. Maurice Cannady, Lewis Ward, Francis Paronto and Wade Nelson were among the Kansas youngsters who did more than their bit to make dents in the line'-Michigan State machine. As for Iowa State and State, after the lowans had tied it up at 7 all in the first quarter on a blocked punt, the Kan- sans really went to work.

Iowa State's clever passing attack, which misfired by inches in the first period, never saw much service thereafter. It's not healthy to pass from, your own end zone.

In Pasadena's annual New Year's da.y Rose Bowl football classic. Just who the bid to oppose the far western remains en- in: Even should 'they topple Notre Dame at South Bend this week and thus complete an all-victorious campaign, Northwestern's Wildcats can be reckoned out of the Rose Bowl picture because of.

the Big- Ten Conference rule against post-season games. Pitt In Runninjr. With Northwestern eliminated, the choice today appeared, to have narrowed down to Fordham and Pittsburgh in the east, Marquette in the middle west, and Louisiana State and Alabama in the- South. Fordham perhaps holds the Inside track at the moment because the Rams' representative schedule has given them a chance to whip Southern Methodist, of the southwest, St. Mary's of the far west and Purdue of the Big Ten, as well as hold Pitt to a scorless Fordham still must get past Georgia this week and New York University on Thanksgiving Day.

Pitt, despite its upset defeat at the hands of Duquesne, can point to its triumphs over Ohio State, Notre Dame and Nebraska as warranting more than casual consideration but the Panthers still have Carnegie Tech to hurdle on Thanksgiving Day. The end of Marquette's gruel- ling schedule takes the Golden Avalanche against Duquesne at Pittsburgh this week. The Mil-' waukee machine, paced by Ray Buivid and Guepe must- get past this one or forget all about the trip to Pasadena. Louisiana State and Alabama, battling for the southeastern title, both seem certain of winding up undefeated. "breather'' with Southwestern of Louisiana this week, L.

Paradoxical as it may sound, the usual killing of several hundred wild -turkeys Missouri next month can be turned -into one means of greatly increasing this game, bird in the future.

One of the first questions of this Investigation is: What does a wild turkey eat? After a year of work, Biakey has decided the only way to find this out conclusively is kill hundreds, of them and analyze the contents of tlieir gizzards and craws (crops). But: wild turkeys in the Ozarks are 'entirely too scarce to permit killing such numbers for study purposes, therefore Biakey is appealing for co-operation from wild-turkey sportsmen to- obtain the gizzard and craw (crop) of every wild turkey bagged in Missouri during the December open season. These may be packed dry in any small box, or merely wrapped in heavy paper, and sent to H. L. Biakey, Biological Survey, Building, St.
