LINCOLN EVENING JOURNAL, MONDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1937. NINE Cornhusker Football Team, Dear Gang: Well, you did it. You proved a team that won't be beaten, can't be beaten. Coming from behind an outfit like Minnesota twice is a day's work in anybody's league. 1 understand that one of the Minneapolis writers thought your offense was pitiful at times.

Well, there's an explanation for that. The writer who made that assertion had climbed out on a limb Friday evening by trying to ease the blow for us Nebraskans. Over the radio he said that Cornhusker followers should net be too rough on Biff Jones because after all it was his first year here, with now men and a new system. Give Biff a break, urged "this Minneapolis scribe, even if the Gophers made it a three touchdown margin, which he fully expected they would do. This same chap gave the Gophers a fight talk just before the game and after the first four mintues he was receiving congratulatory nudges for his ability to fire up the Minnesotans who had marched 62 yards to a touchdown.

But evidently the Gophers forgot to remember all he told them. Your offense was largely an air tight defense, and if a team as big as Minnesota can't score from the 6 yard line in four downs, it's a fine time to be looking into what supposed to make Gopher offense tick rather than casting aspersions on a group of lads who cashed the two opportunities that their way. That defense of yours had the Gophers trying a placekick when they needed but two yards for a first down on our 15 yard line. While the kick was good, it indicated that the Gophers were more than willing to settle for two points. You had 'em whipped down to your size by that time.

Johnny Howell is convinced that secret practice helped the team a lot this fall. He said he noticed that there wasn't so much tension among you players before the game started. "They were talking about the weather and other subjects in a natural way," Johnny said. If this condition can continue, fine. But the pressure on anybody pre- enough to bowl over the Gophers is heavy.

You'll begin to hear the talk that gave the Gophers illusions of grandeur too early this year. How they were going to -wallop the Huskers from 20 to 30 points and then a romp to the national title. That talk, is always present around a winner. If you can stick to your knitting and not let it affect you, you'll be one of the few groups ever able to do so. Flattery is something we all like to hear but too much of it can WTften the heads of the best of us.

However you kids made a lot of people T. B. Strain tells of one well dressed man who was waiting for the crowd to file out of the stadium. This gentleman was softly whistling a cheery tune. After a time he mumbled: "Now, if we could only get a'good rain." Injury to Eldon Mcllravy tossed a blanket over your valiant efforts but you'll be glad to know that Mac was able to take some nourishment Monday, that he recognized his relatives and Biff Jones during conscious moments.

Doctors are predicting a speedy recovery. When word came to the press coop from the dressing room that Mae's pulse was so wealc that a count on it was impossible it didn't seem to matter much whether we won or lost to a lot of us who knew him. But now that he's getting better we're enjoying that victory to the fullest. You lads made it possible and you have some memories that Morgan's millions can't buy. It's Iowa State this week.

Don't forget that you weren't given any more chance of beating Minnesota than the Cyclones will be given against Nebraska. To be the team that beats the team that beat Minnesota -that's what every opposing eleven on your schedule will strive to be. And the first guy who mentions Rose bowl--let him have it with a one-two punch tn the button. JOHN BBNTLEY. P.

Nebraska's Victory Over Minnesota Opens Up National Title Race MAD SCRAMBLE AHEAD AS GOPHERS BOW TO HUSKEBS IN OPENER California, Cornell, Ohio State and Nebraska'Among Early Tcp Notchers. HUSKERS AT ICWA STATE BY HENRY SUPER.

NEW YORK. (UP). A wide open battle for the mythical national gridiron championship seemed probable following the defeat of Minnesota, last year's titleholder. by Nebraska. As the new season moved toward its third big week end of competition, four newcomer; California, Cornell, Ohio State and Nebraska--showed signs of recapturing the glory of former years.

California, with two victories, already is being hailed as a greater eleven than the "wonder teams" which Andy Smith turned out back in the early 1920's. Cornell hopes for a return to the golden days of Gil Dobie. Ohio State, touted as the coming national champion before the last two season, thinks it has a team that may he the national titleholder in November. And as for Nebraska--it's 14-9 victory over Minnesota tells the story. Minnesota, despite its defeat, can't be counted out of the race, for the licking might provide the spark which will start the Golden Gophers off on another winning streak.

Other Unbeaten Teams. ''Harvard, Fordham, Navy, Pittsburgh, Northwestern, Notre Darne, Duke, Tennessee, Alabama, Louisiana State, Georgia, Vanderbilt, Texas M. and Santa Clara all are definitely in the running. With the exception of Louisiana State, however, all must first survive a strong test before they can "rate." The coming week end will pro vide tests for most. In the east, six games pair undefeated, untied opponents--Army-Columbia, Yale- Pennsylvania, Harvard- Brown, Princeton-Cornell, Holy Cross- Georgetown and Pittsburgh-Duquesne.

In the mid west, where Ohio State leads the Big Ten conference with one victory and no defeats, three conference games are scheduled--Indiana-Minnesota, Michigan-Northwestern and Wisconsin- Chicago. Outside the conference Notre Dames gets its first big test against Illinois, which lost some caste by being held to a scoreless tie by DePaul on Saturday. jt Iowa State. Big Six conference competition starts with Nebraska playing Iowa State and Missouri meeting Kansas State. The big- game in the south brings together undefeated Duke and undefeated Tennessee.

In the southwest conference, where Texas Christian and Arkansas hold the lead with a tie game Arkansas meets Baylor. On the Pacific coast, where U. C. L. Washington and California are tied for the lead with a victory each, three conference games are scheduled--California- Washington State; Stanford-U.

C. L. A. and Washington-Oregon State. In the Rocky Mountain division, five conference games are scheduled over the week end with Denver U.

expected to defeat- Colorado State and take a firm grip on the conference lead with three victories and no defeats. NEBRASKA'S GAIN MAY BE INDIANA U. LOSS CHICAGO. UPt. Nebraska's gain shaped up as Indiana's loss.

Minnesota's Golden Gophers--As grim as they were chastened--settled down to a week of hard work, trying to forget that 14 to 0 tarnishing they took from the Nebras- kanjs Saturday and looking ahead to taking it out on Indiana's Hoos- lers at Minneapolis next Saturday. Coach Bernle Bierman described the Gopher's play against the Cornhuskers as "sluggish," and if work will turn JJie trick, the poker faced mentor will have his Minnesota machine wpll oiled for its next tilt. It's possible--in view of an apparent lack of intelligent field generalship--that Bierman may do some experimenting. It's likely hc'l) bear down on pass defense, for (t was the failure of the secondary on aerials that pave the alert, fighting Biff Jones' team its chance for victory. Indiana, which looked none too impressive downing Centre College two weeks ago and did not play last Saturday, probably will not be the only team to catch an improved Minnesota aggregation on the rebound.

Michigan, Notre Name, Iowa. Northwestern and Wisconsin complete the Gopher schedule and the Northmen are going to take Saturday's stunning defeat out on some of those teams --if not all. CARBURETOR U. p.t. No.

A light but fast Doane college eleven is liable to cut some pretty fancy capers in the N. C. A. C. football conference this year, judging from Ji-s early season performances.

After smashing St. Regis of Denver, 52 to 0, Gene Haylett's boys came right back last week and knocked off Peru, 12 to 0. Featuring a speedy 4 backfield led by Sloey and Buck, the Tigers took to the air to score twice and then staved off two Bobcat threats. Thig week Haylett's club tackles York, which has piled up large scores against smaller college teams. Ordinarily, the game would be the first N.

C. A. C. clash, but York ia not in the conference race this fall. Hastings at Kearney.

Two other significant games aie on this week's menu. Hastings and Kearney engage in their annual scuffle, with both rolling up large scores as warmups. The Antelopes recorded their third straight victory without being scored on, whipping Regis, 66 to 0 and meantime piling up 574 yards from scrimmage against a net loss of 16 yards for the inexperienced Denverites. Hastings marched at will for a 33 to 0 triumph over McPherson. which Kearney had lowered 26 to 0 the week before.

Peru and Midland meet in another interconference scuffle at Midland, with the Warriors appearing; a slight favorite, after nipping Maryville, 6 to 0 last week.

The Jackson high 1937 football team found that to be true when it dropped a 7 to 6 decision to Coach Jug Brown's Fall City outfit to end its winning streak at 32 games without defeat and 12 straight victories. Bob Anderson's 45 yard touchdown gallop in the first quarter after intercepting a stray Tiger pass was the lone counter for the Cardinals, who saw victory snatched from their hands on 41 yard march engineered by Earl Drumm, sub haitback, for touchdown, and watch Bob Matthews slice off tackle for the winning point.

Copyright, NANA, (The Lincoln Journal and other nrttftpnperm. the hullabaloo abount upsets is getting a little thick. A few favorites toppling does not necessarily make startling upsets. Take, for instance, the scorel" draw of Illinois and De Paul, which Is pointed out as an amazing result. These two teams staged an even battle last year, which Illinois finally won, 9 to 6, by a last minute field goal.

They looked pretty even going- to the post thl, year. There are too many breaks In any football game to make predictions anything but hazardous. That startling victory of -Nebraska over Minnesota is a case in point. On form, everyone picked Minnesota. Statistics of the game proved the experts were right, but no one could predict that Minnesota would fumble a couple of times and that Nebraska would cash in on each one.

Biff Jones, in his debut at Nebraska, presented a stalwart defense and a team of alert opportunists who profited by every Minnesota error. The outcome proves that, where two fairly evenly matched teams meet, the result is always in doubt. Ohio State also shocked the experts by trimming Purdue by a 13 to 0 score. This result makes it look like a neck and neck race for Big Ten honors between Ohio State and Minnesota. I attended the Miehigan-MicW gan State game, played on a threatening overcast day before a record crowd of some 70,000 In this game, both teams came from behind twice to score and put on a football show that delighted a wildly enthusiastic gathering.

Bill Terry, Giants' manager, licked Hubbell and ended rumors that Cliff Melton, the sensational ookie southpaw who won 20 games, might draw the first game issignment. After Terry's announcement, 'ack Doyle, Broadway prlcemaker, eadjusted his odds and made the trice 7 to 10 against the Yankees and 11 to 10 against the Giants or the opener. He had previously quoted 1 to 2 against the Yanks and 7 to 5 against the Giants. Manager Joe McCarthy will name his starting pitcher Monday.

Every box seat has been sold for first six games, club officials announced. The Yanks have sold supply of 4,748 at $6.60 each for the first, second and sixth Barnes which will be played at Yankee stadium.

The Giants' supply of about 5 fc OOO boxes have been disposed of for the third, fourth and fifth games to be played at the Polo grounds. are that if the weather is favorable for the open- ng game at Yankee stadium Wednesday, there will be a new world series attendance record for one game. Seating capacity of Yankee stadium for world seriee games is 71,303. The largest crowd ever to see a world series game is 66,669 at the fourth game last year. Kubbell has opened two previous world series, pitching the Giants to victory over Washington In 1933 and beating the Yankes in last year's rain-swept opener, 6-1.

The Yanks beat Hubbell In the fourth jame, 5-2. In 16 innings against the Yanks, he has allowed 15 hits and 5 runs. Melton In Second. Terry is expected to follow up with Melton in the second game and Hal Schumacher, who was ttnocked out of the box by the Yanks in the second game last year but won the fifth game, in ihe third game. McCarthy's pitching assignments are likely to call for Gomez in the opener.

Red Ruffing the second game, and Monte Pearson the third game. With Hubbell pitching the first game, Myril Hoag will play left field for the Yankees and George Selkirk right field. When a right- dander works for the Giants, Tommy Henrich, a left handed hitter, will replace Hoag. The Giants also will make one shift against southpaw pitching, with Hank Lef- ber or Wally Berger playing center field when Gomez pitches. When the Yanks have a right hander on the mound Lou Chlozza will patrol center field.

Jake Powell, hero of larit year's aeries when he hit .455, may not play in the series because of sinus trouble. VICTORY TRAIL ENDS FOB PREP ELEVENS, LAST WEEK'S GAMES Impressive Wins by Orleans, Ulysses, David City and Scottsbluff. JACKSON, HASTINGS LOSE Jackson high school knows how Minnesota feels. So do several other Nebraska high school football teams whose higM class records 1936 were smashed last week. Headed by the shattering of Jackson's astonishing victory record, the casualty list also showed the downfall of Norfolk in Us first of the season; the defeat of Hastings high, a strong outfit last year; and the second loss of season for an Alliance team which co-champion of the western Nebraska conference in 1936.
