Nebraska's Cornhusker eleven smashed the Oklahoma Sooners on the muddy Nebraska field Saturday afternoon defeating the visitors by a score of 44 to 0. Preston. Husker pilot the stellar player of the Nebraska squad with Lewellen, Noble and Wrighi close behind. About five thousand gridiron-' fans including two hundred and fifty Okla-homans and several hundred South Omaha and Omaha visitors, piled into ilie Nebraska, bleachers and grand stand. Forty "Jazz-Hounds" acconv panied the Oklahoma team together with a thirty-six piece band and over a hundred and fifty rooters.

Only two Huskers, Lyman and Pucelik, were not removed from the Nebraska lineup. Coach Dawson shot his reserves Into the game, in the last quarter with abandon bat kept the two old heads at tackle on the job to the end of the -game. Both tackles were on the go all of the time each laying out his quota of Sooners and breaking thru to 'jimmy the plays. Lewellen, Huaker back, was called upon fourteen times to boot the pigskin for Nebraska. The tall bacfc was able to get away with every kick averaging 34 yards per punt.

But Lewellen was able to do more than kick, gaining a number of yards at important times for the Huskers by ramming thru the Sooner line for substantial gams. The tall Lincoln high back was also in the game when it came to breaking up the Sooner passing, intercepting one dangerous throw and carrying the ball out of danger. Preston showed up in the opening Mt the game when he caught Morrison's opening punt and ran 70 yards lowTf the field for a touchdown Pres-nna nilnMnEr work was Ahe Husker engineer milng his plays to outguess the visitors. His success "long this line is shown in the number of long- gains which Nebraska made thru the Sooner forward wall on a ser-, ies of plays which shifted the Sooner defense and permitted Nebraska play3 to suceed thru the heavy line. 4 Hartley Hard Hitter.

Hartley, Husker back, smashed the Oklahoma line time and again for substantial gains. The Nebraska back-field man "was used to strike" the' Sooner line while Wright -and Lewellen were making end runs. Hartley did some of the Husker passing but the Oklahomans were on the job and spoiled the Nebraska throws. Nebraska attempted but half a doz- en passes all of which fell incomplete. The Sooners, true to dope, tackled the aerial offensive In the third quarter with a vim that took the Huskers off their feet The Oklahoma backs, especially Tyler, were giving the ball short thrusts to ends who took the pigskin shortly over the Husker front aid stepped-out for several considerable gams.

In the third period alone, the Sooners made five first clowns and traveled aeross the gridiron to within scoring distance of the Husker goal. On the 10-yard line -an attempt to score on the- aerial play was killed when Nebraska broke the pass over the goal for a touchback. Huskers Get Penalized. Nebraska was a bit too ready to get into the game Saturday and as a result of the haste was penalized six different times. The Huskers lost a total of 60 yards on penalties alone while the Sooners took but a total loss of 7 yards for two offenses.

The. Huskers showed ability, to run thru a broken field on several occasions, returning kickoffs for a total -of 103 yards. Oklahoma was able to liick back but 12 yards on kickoffs. "The work of Captain Swanson and Scherer, Husker wing men. showed up especially in getting down under the ball and "spilling the Sooner backs on Iunts and kickoffs.

The match between Purnell and Faidley in the semi-finals was one of the best in the championship race. Purnell was 4 up at the end of the first nine Having finished nt his third-round match with A. R. Miller that moring, however, he weakened a little on hi3 second round.

LAWRENCE, Oct. 29. Forty men of the University of Kansas, interested in boxing and wrestling, met and decided to hold a tournament between Thanksgiving and Christmas in order to choose a team that will represent the university In ring circles. Boxers will be put into six classes according to weight, and arrange ments aVe being made to offer medals for first and second place men in each weight. From the winners o' the tournament a varsity team will be chosen to meet teams from other calleges.

Ames has already written for a date. Instructors in the department of physical education will have charge of the coaching of the then. The majority of the men favored boxing to wrestling, but there seemed lo be a decided shortage in the bantam clas3. ITT ANY LIONS ALSO DATED FOR CLASH WITH GEORGIA TECH. Blake Final Aapearaace Hoae Field in Wft Carnegie Satnrdny.

STATE COLLEGE. Oct. 29 Theoretically, it would De very nice for the Penn State football. eleven If they could take things easy next week following the two gruelling games in succession with Harvard and Georgia Techi but with Carnegie Tech boasting of the best team In ita history, coming here' next Saturday as the big Pennsylvania Day attraction, there will be no possible chance of Coach Bezdek easing up on the Nlttany Lions. It is known here that the Tartans count on springing the season's biggest surprise by downing Penn State, but Bezdek will not be.

caught napping. The game next Saturday will be the last appearance of the Nittany eleven on the home fields for the final games will be away from vhome with Navy, Pitt and the University of Washington. Hundreds of out-of-town guests; together with numerous "house pajty queens" here fo? the annual fraternity house parties, will add plenty of color to the crowd and from all reports, the Carnegie Tech band and bosti of Plaid rooters will be on hand to lend encouragement to their team. There should be quite a spirited contest "between the rival rooting sections. Because of the already over-crowded conditions of the town, the problem of caring for the hundreds of Tech rooters who are.

expected is a keen one. However, arrangements are being made by the local Y. M. C. to serve most of them with at leaat one meal and the various fraternities will care for a great many more.

Rooming will not furnish much of a problem because the Tech delegation will return to Pittsburgh by special train, following the game. The last meet ice with Carnegie Tech was In 1913rwhen Penn State won an easy 49to 0 victory over the Maid. The two elevens also met in 1910 and 1912, State winning 10 to 0 and 41 to 0 in those year. In the three meetings, the visitors have failed to score a single point against the Nittanv Lions. However.

Carne- fgie Tech has made great strides under the coaching of -Walter Steffen, former Chicago star, and the opposition next week will be of the hardest. It is interesting to note that Hugo Besdek is also a product of Chicago, so that the game will be a battle of wits between the two proteges of Alonzo Stagg. Penn State is counting very strongly on the return of Captain Snell to the lineup next week after an absence of over three Weeks. Snell was badly missed in the Harvard and Georgia Tech games eo that nis return will be most welcome. The veteran fullback will just about round out the best backfield combination in eastern collegiate for Killlnger, Lightner and.

Wilson have already, won their way to the front rank by their flashy playing in the last few games. 'vSnell has been suffering from a rare throat ailment and it was thought for a time that an operation would be necessary. "Rags" Madera's broken leg secured in the Harvard game necessitated the development of a new left tackle this week and Lee Hills has had the assignment. The former In-dana normal boy has filled the breach In good shape and he will no doubt be in that position against the Tartans next Saturday. Madera will be in the hospital for about ten weeks, which means that he will not only be out for remainder of the football season, but will be lost to the boxing team as well.

He made quite a name for himself in' the heavyweight division last year, JV. fore-runner to the varsity football game with Tech wilf be the freshman game with the Pitt yearlings, who are also here for the Pennsylvania Day celebration. Last year, the two cub elevens met on Forbes field and the game resulted ai7-7 tie. Dutch Hermann has a scrappy team this fall, the biggest leather in their cap being the 19-0 defeat administered to Mer-cersburg academy last week, after the latter team nad triumphed over the Princeton freshmen. The yearling game should be almost at good as the varsity.
