TWELVE THE LINCOLN DECEMBER 1, 193S, Huskers Supreme In Combat With Biblemen Invincible In Decisive Defeat of Beavers BY GREGG McBRIDE. The leaden drapery of a late November sky was enveloping the massive concrete walls of Memorial stadium Thursday afternoon as a Thanksgiving day crowd of 25,000 rose to pay tribute to as great and as game a football team as over wore the Scarlet spangles of University of Nebraska football warriors.

For Bernie was reserved the work of sending the shock troops over for that final touchdown, tor the ovation accorded the departing seniors had hardly ceased before throats swelled again with a mighty shout as the reserves seven points more and thereby served notice that next year they will be prepared to carry on. and Penney joined the senior group in the dressing room after the game was over. There were a few tears of regret dimming the eyes of the sixteen with the realization they had played their last football in varsity moleskins. But these tears could straighten up.

WALSH. NEW YORK. Dec. 1 (INS) call it a career tomorrow in intercollegiate football, with lour no-defeated teams, Princeton, the Army, Louisiana State and Duke, laving it on the line for the last time and two of the one-defeaters, Southern California and Georgia, meeting each other in Los Angeles. So much for the cafe noir of official season.

Yesterday, we had the salad course, with Pittsburgh, Nebraska, Oregon. Tennessee, Alabama and Centenary emerging triumphant, as they say down at the steam laundry. In other words, returns set a precedent for tomorrow's favorites. I mean that the good ones won and the bad ones Three of the no-defeated teams figure to find heavy going tomorrow; the fourth, Princeton, should win, standing up, against a comical Yale team at New Haven. The Yale team so comical, at that; the people who pay to see it.

Out at Manhattan early in the season it was alert head work by Masterson which enabled the Huskers to defeat Kansas State.

If you remember that game, neither team had scored in the Hrst half and early In the third period the Wildcats had just been stopped on a forward passing march. Lining up slowly after this rebuff, they were not in their positions in time to prevent Masterson from quickly calling Boswell on a play and the speedy Husker back was line before it had than seven points since the second game of the season. Strangely, even an inept Notre Dame team still is able to maintain this event as a show-window game, with at least 70,000 fixing to be there. Anyhow, both Princeton and the Army figure to go through.

A third gained a scant yard and the crowd howled Itself hoarse as the Oregonians lined up for the Sauer, Masterson and Boswell at the three important points, gathered momentum as the game pro- gre.ssed and in the crucial moments the Beaver line to shreds. The Nebraska midget line, witn Meier, Bishop. DeBus, OBrlen, Pilum, Kilbourne and Roby battling a forward wall which averaged close to 200 pounds from wing to wing, rose to spectacular heights to hold tor downs inside the four- yard lino and avert a Beaver touchdown which threatened to swing the tide of battle westward. Iteavcrs Beaten; Then Routed.

The dramatic moment.s of the final game were crowded into the closing minutes of the third period and the first few seconds of the fourth quarter. Nebraska had left the field at the intcrmis.sion holding a 6-0 lead, the result of a punch that struck after an interference pass penalty had the Cornhuskers a first down on the 22-yard line. I.anuue The Scarlet then cut loose a varied attack which mixed a Bo.swell mss and Sauer plunge to gain the two-yard stripe. Lanoue hiking around end for the score. These six points seemed to rep- re.sent the ball game until the Beavers late In the third period uncorked a ixi.vlng attack to mix in with the brilliant broken field running of Franklin to carry the ball into Nebraska territory Five.

Not an inch did the Huskers bulge. In fact, the scarlet jerseys rolled the western ball-lugger back to the llve- yard stripe, by way of making sure there was no doubt their goal line wan uncrossed, Tlien the quarter ended and. with the firing of that gun, Nebraska! gained the advantage of the slight that was being wafted through the stadium.

More Work to Be Done. But still there was work to be done and George Sauer was reserved for that duty. Standing just inside the end line, Sauer waited for the snapback that was to start the deciding play. Tlie forward wall that smothered the lone Beaver threat once more held tight and Sauer got off a punt which carried over 60 yards on the fly and rolled off finger tips as he tried for an over-the- shoulder catch. Tlien ensued a race for the ball, with Franklin finally recovering on his 20-vard line.

The sudden turn of the pme had the Oregon team demoralized and the rout which followed merely eur- phasized the margin of the superiority. Sauer and Benson Score. A bad pass from the Oregon center rolled 30 yards across the end line to an automatic safety, adding two points to Nebraska's total. A few minutes later Masterson intercepted long pass to give the Huskers the ball on the Nebraska 43-yard line. Four plays and Sauer went across standing up at the end of a 28-yard sprint.

Following the next kickoff. Interception gave the Huskers th? ball oh the Oregon State 33-yard line. Then the shock troops took over the burden and required Just two plays to get the score, Skew'es passed to Benson for 30 yards and for several reasons, only cne of which really probably the better football team. So are Texas Christian and Bav- lor in relation to Southern Methcd- ist and Rice, respectively, and, in the same way, Florida figures against Maryland and Misslsdppi against Mississippi State. Auburn, a little too fast to follow the way it wins them and loses them, ought to come back again.st South Carolina.

I also like Villanova slightly against Rutgers and Boston College against Holy Cross by the same margin. Gets Eyeful of Huskers. Tliose you have to like more than slightly are Pitt, Nebra.ska. Colgate and Tennessee after what they did against major opposition yesterday. The Huskers, just off two back- breakers with Pitt and Iowa, ran up 22 points against Oregon State, the same Oregon State that.

ERRY LANOUE, Husker fleet- foot, made hi.s debut early in the second quarter, going in for Jack Miller and steppiilg away for successive gains of five and seven yards, thereby accounting for, the first of the 15 first downs earned by the Huskers during the 60 minutes of was tossed for a four-yard loss on the next play, the blocking falling to function, but right there came the break which opened the door to first A forward toss to Yelkin, one of the end replacements, was ruled a completed pass for 20 yards when Bowman, Beaver halfback. interfered with the receiver information supplied. Bennie Owen, veteran director of athletics, apparently bewildered by the action, said; all right with me to let anybody take Up tickets.

I take note that as conservative a coach as Bernie Biermau of Minnesota U. suggests that the game deserves to be opened up a bit more, to the end that the defense may lo.se some of its present advantage over the offense. Coach Biernian cites the 1833 experiences of his own team, though the Gophers outdowned and oiifyarded their foes in every game but single exception being Pitt, which bowed to the Bicr- man was held to tie scores In no less than four of its games. This fact. In Bemle's opinion, goes to prove that some method calculated to aid the offense merits serious consideratloh at the hands of the national committee.

Oregon goal was only 22 yards distant and the red-shirts were on the way, never stopping until the ball had been put across to the first toss to Boswell accounted for 15 yards. Fullback George Sauer ploughed through the line for six yards, apparently going over only to be called back to the two-yard line, following which Jerry Lanoue scooted around the right replacement for Boswell, spun off tackle for seven yards on the next the Biblemen were on the battered the Beaver line for an 11-yard gain and Sauer galloped a similar The Oregon goal was 28 yards distant, but that evidently mean a lot to Sauer, who crashed through a yawning hole opened by the Nebraska forwards, side-stepped and whirled away from three Beaver tacklers in a hurricanic drive which carried him over the Oregon goal Into the touchdown the same identical play on three successive drives, the Husker offensive had accounted for 50 yards of terrain the replacement aggregation which Coach Bible sent into action during the dying moments of the battle did some mighty quick scoring on its own account the watchful Debus had intercepted a Beaver pass, Skewes rifled a long pass to Halfback Benson for a 30-yard yard gain and, on the next play, Benson rambled around left wing for five yards to score Nebraska's third touchdown, not a Beaver tackier putting a finger on the Pender boV as he dashed across the final stripe.

Speaking for myself, I suspect the Michigan State coach ha.s suggested something that Is worthy of the consideration. Comes another coach to propose that the 10-yard sideline rule amended by inereasing the distance to 15 yards. That impres.ses me as being a sound suggestion, although if the main idea is to help the offensive. why not make the distance 20 yards? Spectators would see more end runs If the 10-yard rule is altered, for, as 1 see it, a well executed end run is one of finest plays. Bill Spaulding's Answer To Critics Is Victory Over Cougars.
