The season's first real scrimmage Thursday night- gave Coach Merrlt Robson a chance to see test where his College View high ball club stood offensively and defensively before he plunges It Into Greater Lincoln league competition next wees: against Cathedral high. An eleven recruited from the Lincoln high Reserve squad provided the opposition for Robcon's machine and the College View outfit scored frequently.

The offense was, of course, a little ragged, but the defense more competent than Robson had expected, while the passing attack functioned smoothly for a number of substantial gains. The pass-catching of Walter, end, was outstanding, and Richardson caught one to scora during the session. Miller was called for most of th ball carrying. The lineup used consisted of Huddleston and Walter, endi: Richardson and Hoag. tackles: Jacobs and Wolfe, guards, and Henderson, center.

Marrow was at quarterback. Miller and Whalen at halfbacks and Lowe, fullback. Marrow, who has lettered for three years at guard, has been shifted into the backfield, but occasionally moves up into the line, and Huddleston Is called back to take hla place. Most of th kicking Is In the hands of Miller, who also does most of the passing and running, although Walter can be called Into the backfield for kicking. The showing of a newcomer, Johnny BedouseJt, a halfback, featured the scrimmage.

Badousek, a find this fall, exhibited considerable speed and elusiveness. He took Miller's place at halfback and served notlc on all backs present that he wasn't quite satisfied with th way things wer going around there. Robson said Thursday night that he will see mor service during the next week. BETHANY-HIGH. With Johnny Staten on crutches, due to a sprained ankle.

RATES TIGERS AS BEST SERIES BET Walsh Figures Detroit Sure If National Has Play-off. BY DAVIS J. WALSH. NEW YORK. Sept.

28 (INS) There being nothing like knowing when you're licked, we are forthwith and without further notice abandoning the remainder of this outburst In connection with the world series teams, exacting only one exception. This has to do with the loser. The latter is a cinch. The loser, per se and in every practical effect, is the winner of any play-off series In which the National league cares to engage. In these circumstances, what difference does it make that Collins is superior to Greenberg as a defensive first-baseman and that Terry Is better than both? 8uppoe Rogell doesn't compare with Jackson as a shortstop and that Dur-ocher can field like a fool and hit like an empty sleeve? The Answer Being Obvious, What anybody wanU to know about a comparison of this kind is who figures to win and the answer this time Is obvious.

Therefore, we are giving up the Idea of proving something that seems to be well established in the minds of all. No National league club, having shot with its best pitchers in a play-off and taking only one day to recover, can hope to go In there and contest with an American league club that has rested its man-power. Therefore, without going further Into comparative strength and weakness and recognizing that the world series Is always a test of the team that Is ready, there is only one reaction to the situation. The Tigers are rested; they are ready. They ought to win.

Picks Tiger to Win. I am, consequently, picking them to win the world series of 1934, regardless of what may happen In the National league. If the Cardinals can win without a play-off, they are an excellent bet because of the Deans. If the Giants win without a play-off, they are the worst of all possible choices. They're tired.

They're through. The pitchers have gone as far as they possibly can without hitting. The hitting has stopped as though it was whacked on the head with a handful of horse collars. A club like that Just doesn't figure. Ott, for instance, is off about 30 points In hitting and has driven in something like nine runs in the last 37 games.

Case of Giants Hopeless. The New York Giants simply cannot carry a performance like that into a world series and hope to get away with it. Of all the clubs who cannot possibly figure to win, the Giants are most certainly it. They can't score runs; therefore, they can't win ball games. If the Cardinals happen to slide through with few more exhibitions such as Mr.

Slade happened to give on behalf of the Reds, they can not only win the pennant. They're a perfect world series club two outstanding pitchers and a fine defense. Outside of that, all they need is a letter from Huey Long. INSURANCE MEN AT SATURDAY'S GAME One of the largest parties at the Nebraska-Wyoming game Saturday afternoon will be sponsored by the Security Mutual Insurance Co. One hundred agents from nine states attending an annual convention here will be guests of the company at the Cornhusker-Cowboy game.

28 (INS) Frankle Frisch, playing manager of the St. Louis Cardinals, awoke bright and early today, more en thuslastic than ever over his club's changes of winning or at least tlelng for the National league pen nant. The Cardinals are how only a half game behind the leading New York Giants as the result of their victory over Cincinnati in the Ilrst of a four-game series yesterday. By defeating Cincinnati again this afternoon, with the great Dizzy Dean pitching, the Cardinals will tie the Giants for the lead. Idle yes terday, the Giants have another open date today.

"I was mighty glad that our team won yesterday," Frisch said. "I realize, of course, it is a matter of a day-to-day proposition "We have a real chance to win or at least tie for the pennant. I'm not overlooking that, either. Today, I'll send Dizzy Dean to take the second game of the series from the Reds. Thinking Only of Today, "Who will pitch the fourth game? That's too far away.

We are thinking of today's game. "Who will pitch the third game? That's too far away. We are all thinking of winning today's game." If the Cardinals win the flag, Frisch will Join with Bill Terry, the Giants' manager, in becoming one or tne iirst lull-year pUota in the National league to lead a team to the penat. Terry accomplished this feat last year when the Giants won the flag and then the world's championship over Washington. The 1934 world series, should the Cardinals win the pennant, will see a repetition of the feature of last year's series when plans of battle were directed by two first full-year maagers Joe Cronln of Washington and Terry as Mickey Cochrane, manager of the American league champion Tigers, also served his first year as manager this season.

Five-Run Assault. It was a five-run assault in the first Inning that upset the tailend Cincinnati Reds yesterday and started Frisch's men to an 8 to 5 victory. Three successive Infield errors, all due to apparent stage fright, brought the deluge, with Paul Derringer as the victim. Then Tony Frcitas took the mound and held the rampaging Cardinals to one single in four ln- ings. When he was succeeded by a pinch-batter, the Cards got out of hand again, scoring three runs, one of which was a homer bv Duckv Medwick in the seventh.

The Cardinal Ditchine was handled by Bill Walker, Dazzy Vance and Tex Carleton. The Red's scored twice off Walker in the fifth and a Red rally in the ninth was nipped by Carleton's steady efforts. BOWLING BOOSTER LEAGUE. ah DUE. Rogers Thursday night at the Lincoln Parlors.

Dixie Series. New Orleans, Galveston, S. PLENTY TO BET ON 'BROADWAY' Lively Business These Days On New York's "Big Stem." BY PAT ROBINSON. NEW YORK. Sept.

28 (INS) This Is strictly gambling and gossip Dut botn are ngnt rrom tne leea box. Let's go: Along the "big stem," meaning' Broadway, the bookies are laying: Two to one the Olants win the pennant. Ten to seven the Tigers beat the Olants. If the Cards win, 11 to 10 the Cards trim the Tigers. Even money, Dizzy Dean vs.

Schoolboy Rowe in the first game. If the Olants win, six to five Rowe will beat any Oiant in the opener. Incidentally, same odds, Art Lasky outgallops Steve Hamas next week. Eight to five. Cards beat Olants If play-off series is needed.

And to show you how closely the bookies follow the dope, you can write your own ticket this series will outdraw the last. They must have heard that Eddie Brannlck, the Olants' dough receptacle, has been swamped with advance orders, although the Olants are not yet in by any means. Pa Assigns Umpires. Papa Heydler of the National league Is going to name four umpires for the play-offs, if any. And you can bet the family bankroll, any of the four named will not be nominated for the world series.

And if the Olants have to go through another series with the Cards and should happen to win, they'll lay you plenty against both Hubbell and Schumacher. These lads are dead tired. Hence, the liberal eight to five against the Olants If they play the Cards again. And, did you know that the Yanks say Babe Ruth's fielding cost them at least 12 games this year? And that the Yanks are willing to toss Lazzerl and several lesser lights into a deal for a third baseman? Giants Fer Mango. And that the Cubs have already offered the illustrious Babe Herman for Sam Leslie, but that the Dodgers have put up the "wait" sign until they find out more about McCarthy? And that Roy Parmelee is likely to be a favorite If and when he starts in the big show? And mentioning Babe Herman and the Dean Brothers reminds me that the Tigers have their own Rogell.

And, finally, were you aware that they are laylnf six to five on Vac Mungo to beat the Olants Saturday and that the Giants relish meeting him just like you like meeting one of Clyde Beatty's pets In bis native Jungle? New Vanity Combination. Ir blasting the lid off the season, Coach Dana X. Bible will present a brand new varsity combination, as only one regular Franklin Meier-Is back from the team which compiled the winning record of last year. Familiar faces missing from the opening lineup Include Bruce Kllbourne, Lee Penney, John Roby, ends; Gail O'Brien, Leland Copple, tackles; Clair Bishop, Warren De-Bus, guards; George Sauer, Bernle Masterson, Hubert Boswell and Jack Miller, ball-carriers. A Scarlet varsity well saturated with promising sophomores replaces the veterans of last year.

Gridsters making their debut at the start of the Wyoming tilt will be Bam Francis, Lloyd Cardwell and pos Sibly Clyde White. Francis, a south' Daw. Is the punter of the first' string; Cardwell Is the speedster who has been performing sensationally In practice scrimmage, and White Is a hard-working guard who has been replacing Glenn Justice since the Grand Island vet injured a leg. Few Vets At Wyoming. Coach Wlllard "Dutch" Wltte, who arrived In Lincoln Friday with his Laramie squad, la situated much as Bible, Insofar as veteran material Is concerned, the Cowboy camp boasting only six lettermen this fall.

The opening game Is expected to feature a return to aerial warfare, with emphasis on the forward pass. The slight revision of the grid code this year has opened up the passing fireworks and reports from each camp Indicate the stressing of the forward pass, both on offense and defense. The Huskers reviewed this department of the game Thursday afternoon and the Cowboys pursued similar tactics before pulling away for the scene of the game. The Saturday contest marks the first meeting of the two institutions on the gridiron. While the Wyoming team will be new to Nebraska fans, i there are several members of the Cowboy starting lineup that have already dug their cleats In Memor- lal stadium sod.

Dunn A Cowboy Now. I Eddie Dunn, triple-threater and mainstay of the Wyoming backfield, I was a member of "Choppy" Rhodes' freshman squad back In 1929. Dunn came to Huskerland from Lexington, where he was a star penormer wun the Minute Men. Warren Scoggan, Bcottsbluff boy due to start at tackle? was a frosh candidate in 1930 and filed a bid for a varsity position at Nebraska U. In "31 and "32.

The other Nebraskan on the Wyoming roster Is Lou Danczyk, Loup City athlete -who will open at a guard. Weight figures from the two camps Indicate that Nebraska is holding a strong margin In the line and backfield. Cornhusker followers, however, are Inclined to believe the Wyoming department may have done a bit of juggling In the scale i readings, as Dunn, listed as 172 pounds bv the Laramie statisticians, weighed pounds while a frosh at Nebraska U. five years ago, and Scoggan, Cowboy tackle, listed by I Laramie scribes as 180 pounds, tipped the beam at 185 pounds dur-t Ing his first year with the Cora- huskers In 1930. Bumper Crowd Predicted.

I The opening day crowd will hit 12,000 to 13.000 and with favorable weather may reach 14,000 or 15,000, recording to the estimate of John E. Selleck, Nebraska's business man-. tger of athletics. The throng is cer- tiln to be the largest turnout for an i opening day tilt with the exception tf the Illinois, Texas and Southern wklnk Vini4 AA nacuiuumb gnuics, wiiii.ii imu muic bitersectlonal flavor and appeal. Full Squad In Action.

Win or lose, Bible expects to use nis entire varsity roster during the game. A second lineup which will lee action Includes Lester McDonald and Edgar Sears, ends; Russell Thompson and Harold Holmbeck, tackles; Bill Garnick and Ed Upte-p-ove, guards; BUI Horchem, center; Johnny Williams, quarterback; Bob Benson and Bud Parsons or Ralph Eldrldge, halfbacks; Glenn fullback. Coach Dana X. Bible, head ment-jr of football In the University of Nebraska camp. Informed Lincoln University club members and their Jtuests at Thursday night's pre-sea- ion football dinner that he antlcl- pated stiff opposition on the part of the Wyoming U.

Cowboys In Satur-! day's opening game at the Corn- busker stadium. i Wltte Doubly Anxious. The Nebraska coach predicted that the Cowboys would do consld-j arable forward passing and he hint-J id that the Huskers might be doing tome of the same. Although making rto concessions to Nebraska's oppon ents during me season, ne ciieu uie fact that the Comhuskers, starting with a squad lacking experience, are facing strenuous opposition from the first game of the campaign to the last. Few Schedules Like It.

"Few schools in the game have schedules as exacting as ours." Bible said. "In addition to Minnesota and Pittsburgh, two national leaders, we have Iowa and our five conference rivals. Every one of the litter puts forward a special effort to make it tough for Nebraska." Coach Bible introduced his staff at coaching helper to the club members and all were heartily received. More than 150 persons were jested at the dinner tables and the affair was a pleasing success. Nebraska Students Busy Ticket Buyers The student rooting section at University of Nebraska football game this fall will remind fan of the "good old days." Basinets Manager of Athletics John K.

Sellick report the sale of student season ticket on the Cornhusker campus to be 79 to '80 rr cent ahead of last Tear. Students will require an additional section in the east stand this season. Pair of Lenrthy Ends. At the flanks, the Lincoln mentor will start BUI Dean and Bob Mills, tall, husky lads who are especially adept at pass-snatching and also canny defensive men. Mills was an "honor roll" end last year and may see some service In the backfield as a kicker and passer.

Sam Schwartzkopf and Fuennlng are slated to hold down the first-string tackle posts, with Garrison and Mayne at the guards and Ramey at center. All five of these men are good-sized linemen and they make a redoubtable barrier through the middle sector. Generallng the offense from quarterback will be Merlin Mason, with Cather and Rohrtg at halfbacks, and Trosper at fullback. Rohrlg and Mason will divide the kicking and pauing duties, with Trosper working in as a southpaw passer. Rohrlg and Trosper will bear the brunt of the ball-carrying.

Lincoln's Reserve Strength. In reserve to this eleven will be Mowbray and Turner, ends; Dowllng and Helzer, tackles; Theobald and Capron, guards; and Oartner, center. Young, Perry and Hoke are reserve backs. The Ballermen will use an unbalanced line with single and double wlngback formations resorting to a regular punt formation for kicking only. A flashy aerial attack will be used as much as possible and numerous lateral passes will liven the running game.

Coach Price Hopkins, Josie mentor, has announced a fairly heavy but almost completely green lineup. Inexperience may handicap the visitors and replacement strength will be relied on to a great extent. Probable Starling Lineups.

"DIZZY" DEAN. The St. Louis Cardinals, making their drive to overtake and possibly pass the New York Giants in the National league flag chase, are all set to place dependence on the Dean brothers Jerome and Paul In the three final games of their series with the Cincinnati Reds. Jerome "Dizzy" is booked to go on the mound today, with Paul "Dazzy" coming up Saturday. If "Dlz" and "Daz" come through victoriously.

28 Grover Cleveland Alexander, past master of the art of tossing the horsehide past the willow, is linding the one-night stand route Just a bit tiring. Old Pete" explained all about it when he dropped into Omaha Just a few days after completing another year's work with the House of David baseball teams. He had been on the Jump since May 10. Boy, this is restful, Alexander sighed, as he eased his lanky frame into an overstuffed chair. "Just sitting here with nothing to worry about, No more one game No more over night jumps.

Just rest and an occasional glass of beer." "This gypey life Is no good. I'd like to settle down. That's why I'd like to manage the Omaha baseball club next year. And maybe I will," the old master commented. Still Keen for Cardinals.

Although he's been out of the big league baseball for several years now, Alexander interest still lies with his old club, the St. Louis Cardinals, for whom he won tne world's series in 1925. Alex also had a word for the ageing Babe Ruth, about whom he said: "There are plenty of big leaguers I'd rather pitch to than the Babe. He's the greatest clutcn-hitter the game has ever seen; maybe the greatest it ever will see." Alexander then rolled the years back, turning the pages until he reached the fall of 1926 and his appearance here in an exhibition game following the world's series. "When I walked into tne park that afternoon.

I was a hero everyone slapping me on the back and shaking hands. I was drunk on glory. But folks forget you pretty quick. You're a hero today a bust tomorrow. But it's all in the game and it's a grand game," he said.

Cuba Turn Back Pirates.

Pitching a steady game, BUI Lee hung up his thirteenth victory of the year, hurling the Chicago Cubs to a 4 to triumph over the Pittsburgh Pirates. He allowed but nine hits, the same as Ralph Birkofer granted the Cubs. The Phillies, who found the league-leading Giants a fairly soft touch, bowed 7 to 2 before the Boston Braves. A four-run drive the eighth clinched the game for Boston. The Detroit Tigers' pitching ace, Lynwood "Schoolboy" Rowe, dropped a game to the Chicago White Sox, 11 to 0.

Taking things easy, Rowe was pounded for eight runs and eight hits, but he wasn't taking any chances, apparently saving his arm for the world series games before Firpo Marberry surteded him.
