"Nebraska was penal-1 lzed 5 yards for being offside Hood Mn I 2 SNX 1 I i i 1 i i i shifty Nebraska backs were working behind perfect Interference and were able to pick loop boles thru them with making agility. Wrioht Stellar Back, Wright, left halfback of the Hue-kers, was the hardest worked man of the game.

The Husker back carried the baH two and three times in succession for substantial His shifty running enabled him to make several gains for long distances thru a net work of Indian outposts. The Omaha lad was travelling well and Coach Dawson jerked him for the second quarter in order to save him for emergencies. However he was sent in again in the second half only to repeat his work of the first half and tally twice for Nebraska. Hartley went into the game with a great deal of pep and was instrumental in plugging holes in the Haskell line for a -number of good gains. The veteran Hnsker.

was used in several passes and worked splendidly as a part of the Husker armor plate Interference. The work of the Harvard lad was excellent but Coach Dawson was not killing off his stars Saturday and shipped the first stringers to the bench in order Jo save them for the Notre Dame game next Saturday. Fourteen substitutions were made the Nebraska team during the game. Every one of the Husker first stringers were jerked in order to save them for next week's trial. The Notre Dame game, which is Huskerdom's great fear and worry, will prove the mettle of the Nebraskans and Coach Dawson's unspoken intent to defeat the Catholics is demonstrated in the manner in which he cares for his prize players.

Scherer was not in the game Saturday as he had been laid out for some time with a weak ankle, who had kept out for some time, was allowed to get Into the scrap and showed up well in the line. Lyman and Weller at Tackle positions were golruj well with Pucelik and Wende holding their own at the guard jobs. Triplett, generally working at the pivot position, went in for Weller at right tackle. i I svw' 'J Ctv "i.i,i',f i jJl- I 1 fit. j-t latajreUe, Ind.

Cornhusker fans to tie number of over six thousand witnessed the Nebraska eleven trample on the Haskell Indians Saturday afternoon on the Uusker field winning by a score of 41 to 0. The Braves were unable to break thru Coach Dawson's fortifications and could not gain either at the ends or on forward passes while the steamroller of Husker backs broke down every attempt at defense on the part of the Warriors. The plucky Indians opened with a terrorizing display of speed and shiftiness of foot advancing the ball across tha field deep into Husker territory before the Huskers got onto the Jobs and set up a defense that was The Nebraska ends and oacks beyan breaking thru and bearing. down redskin runners in the opening of their plays, halting all attempts at end runs. This put the Indians Ht a disadvantage since their speed was the main asset of the team and Jorced them to resort to forward Speed in the Husker backfield spoiled the new mode of offense and -the braves were completely out of means to gain any headway.

Haskell held the Nebraskans scoreless, in the first period and the Husker fans lost their certainty of a large victory. The second quarter showed up better for Nebraska the Huskers push- ins Russell and Dewit across for touchdowns and Captain Swanson booting two goals. The third quarter Nebraska scored two more touchdowns but Captain Swanson's toe failed to boot one of the tallies and the score' at the end of the third period stood 27 to 0 in favor the Huskers. Ia the fourth quarter Nebraska shoved, over two more touchdowns and Captain Swan-son kicked both goals, the game ending 41 to 0 in favor fthe Cornhusk- Notre Dame hopes for victory- are somewhat shadowed by the two great Nebraska victories in the opening same of the season. The work of Coach Dawson and Assistant Coach Day on the line has put the heavy team on a basis to halt the heaviest line smashes and the ends have- been cultivated to a 'finesa In the are of getting in on the opponents'; plays.

The backfields wealth of material has worked to a keen edge on account of the amount of high grade competition and the best backfield In fears is in the making under the watchful eye of Assistant Coach Frank. Husker Line Solid. Nebraska's heavy line which played loosely; and started slowly soon found that the pace the Inidan rabbitfooted speedsters were setting would necessitate a little more action. The forward wall bad been breaking into the Redskin plays only to find that the shifty little backs were getting under way a bit too fast and running for good gains. When the Husker defense stiffened and the ends and backs layed for the Indiana there was no place for the Redmen to go but thru the center of the line.

Attempts at this, were foiled when the 200 pounders went into action and halted the Indian backs. The small warriors rebounded like rubber balls from a brick surface, when they struck the immovable Nebraska front. Forward passing was resorted to but a half dozen trys were unprofitable to 'the Indians and they fell into the defense when the ponderous Husker front moved over them.

Locke not only lugged the ball over for the touchdowns, but his gains were largely instrumental In putting Iowa in position to score.

Miller, the superintendent of the new reformatory gave the prisoners a surprise the other evening by presenting them with a pair of 8 os. boxing gloves. An informal smoker took place in the large recreation ropm in the northeast wing. The boys were cautioned to go easy as the cenment floor was rather hard. On account of this, all wrestling was postponed until a mat could be procured.

The stellar bout of evening between two lightweights was roundly applauded and the boys gave a clean clever exhibition. Second honors went the flyweights. Miller the winner proved to be a clever and Assistant Superintendent Anderson will take him in charge and train him for several bouts to be held later. The other three bouts went to draws The prisoners were all pleased with their first smoker. Superintendent Miller and Assls-taint Superintendent Anderson are coaching soccor, volly and basket ball teams and the prospects are fine for Coach Anderson to pick a fine backet, ball team from among the teams competing In the league to be started soon.

county, to obtain r-n inj-ia-clion unless Lewellen Starts Something. Lewellen, former Lincoln high school captain and star, went in the Husker backfield in the last quarter. This is Lewellen's first year with the varsity and he is not being allowed to hurt himself in getting started. Lew's first dash was thru the Indian line for seven yards. Later he was used on the one-yard line to hurdle over for a goal.

The tall back was going fast and by a sprint and a long jump nabbed one of the Indian chieftain's passes, which was in a dangerous place and returned ten yards with the pigskin. Lay ton, who 13 also spending his first season with the Husker'varsit, plowed thru the braves for several1 good gains. The red haired back travels on his knees as well as on his feet and this ability enabled him to fool the warriors when he was going, at his best. The work of Noble has shown a great deal of improvement since the Coyote game two weeks ago and the heavy back was carrying the ball his share of the time in Saturday's game. Preston Worked Well.

Preston, the stubby Nebraska quarterback, was going well thruout the game. The manager had his eye on every warrior play and kept the Husker defense well established as well as discovering and puncturing weak spots in the warriors wall. The engineering was excellent and when Preston left the field he was greeted with a tremendous ovation. Captain Swanson left the field, giving his place to Higgin3. The Husker captain played a splendid game was a terrior to Haskell passes.

On one Indian throw the Nebraska win intercepted the pass and ran the field for 37-yards to the braves' 3-yard line. Swanson's toe was working well and he booted five points for the Huskers, failing but once. Klempke at the other end of the line proved a dangerous man to the wide running Haskellites. The small Anderson several' times found himself farther back than he expected to be when the right wing of Nebraska swept him off his feet in whirlwind fashion. Klempke's injuries in the early part of the gam-3 took him from the field when he was going at his best.

Wenke at guard showed up well on offense as well as defense. On fense the tall Nebraskan was a men ace to the braves when he continually shattered the warrior wall. Wenke'a steller play was when he broke thru the Haskell line, blocked Levi's punt and fell on the ball. Pucelik and Lyman ever on the guard kept spilling Haskell backs while Weller's kicking was a feature, one kick-off flying yards and between the Haskell goal posts for a touch back.
