BY WALTED E. DOBBINS. Cornhusker grldders plunged and passed to seven touchdowns In a five quarter practice scrimmage that spelled "finis" to the spring training period Saturday at Memorial stadium.

Harris Andrews accounted for two of the markers Jack Dodd was the first to score, while Paul Amen, Marvin Plock and Bill An-dreson were credited with the others. Pfobably the most Impressive points in the scrimmage were the Inability of the Reds to score more than one touchdown in the regular four quarter game and the fact that the Whites, with Wild Bill Callihan in the leading role, threatened the Red goal Unci in the fifth Quarter. Jack Dodd went across early In the initial period on a 27 yard gallop around the White left end. Yelkln's attempted kick from placement hit the post and bounded back into the playing field.

Shortly after the second period got under way, Bill Anderson kipped thru the Blue line, outran the secondary with Elmer Dohr-mann cutting down the last man, skimmed across the goal line for the second marker. It was a 80 yard run, the longest of the afternoon. Howell's pass on the extra point was incomplete! -ij Plook In Long Return. Marvin Plock set up -the pins for the third score when he took Willy's punt on the dead run to make a 40 yard return to the Blue 26 yard stripe. Harris Andrews reeled off 12 yards and Plock went over in two plays.

Howell's place-kick was wide. A few minutes later, Andrews tore loose thru the middle for a 25 yard gain, pivoted and lateraled to Amen who went on over for the touchdown. Yelkin booted the extra point to make it 25 to 0 at half' time. Here the Whites re-entered the game with the hapless Blues pro viding the opposition.

KIGHT DEFEATED BY MISS PETTY Medica Defends Third of His Meet Titles in 500 Yard Event. CHICAGO. UP). Mary Lou Petty, sturdy little free style star from the Washington A. Seattle, outfinlshed the defending champion, Mrs.

Lenore Kight Win-gard of Cincinnati, to win the 500 yard free style Saturday night and gain her second title in the women's senior indoor A. A. U. championship meet at the Lake Shore athletic club. The triumph was the western star's second in two nights over Mrs.

Wlrigard, and marked the end of the latter'a reign over American feminine free atylers at longer distances. Like last night's 220 yard final in which Miss Petty won a close decision, the 600 yard championship was a bitter struggle all the way, altho the time, 6 minutes, 21 seconds, was well off Mrs. Wingard's world mark of 6:15.2. After swimming about even with Miss Petty and June Burr for 300 yards, Mrs. Wingard pulled away to a barely noticeable lead.

Miss Petty took command in the last 50 yards, however, and finished about an arm's length In front Miss Burr was third, with Doris Buckley, another Washington A. C. reliable, fourth. Betty Crotty of the Erie, Pa, Aquatic club, and Olive McKean of the Washington A. came home fifth and sixth, respectively.

Burly Jack Medica great star from the Washington A. suc cessfully defended the last of his three title assignments bv winning the 500 yard free style in 5 minutes, 21.5 seconds. Medica took the lead from Ralph Flanagan, lanky Miami, star, after the first 100 yards, held a steady pace until the last 25 yards, then turned on the steam to build- up ma final margin. Flanagan weakened and yielded second place to Johnny Maclonis, wiry Yale star, and just managed to outlast Jimmy Gilhula of the Detroit A for third. Flanagan had the tiniest sort of margin over tne fast coming Gilhula.

Tne nrst record effort of the closing program was made by Mrs. Eleanor Holm Jarrett of the Women's Swimming association, New YorR, in the 100 yard back stroke. The comely easterner shook 'off Margie Smith of the Lake Shore A. and Dorothy orDes or tne Broaawood A. c.

By STUART CAMERON. AUGUSTA, Ga. (UP), "Light horse Harry': Cooper, Chicago veteran with thinning hair, ruled the Augusta national again Saturday as the all star field of 63 passed the halfway mark. Cooper, who owns one of the most consistent scoring records among American professionals, proved his consistency by adding a 69, three strokes under par, to an opening 70, which led the field by five strokes. When the sun dipped, Cooper was so far in front that two casu ally good rounds should be enourh for him to win the title.

His 70 and 69 gave him an ag gregate of 139, five strokes better than his closest pursuers. But if Harry should crack, there are enough worthies in pusult to make sure he will not luck his way into the title. 6hute ls Dangerous. Fnr trmtjinr1 af 111 ir. tmn dangerous foremen.
