Cagers Meetj By ITall Dobbim iwwrnMi Sporte Editor The time is ripe for the annual review of the East-West grid classic. Saturday when Huskers Ed llusmann and Bobby Reynolds trot out on Kezar Stdium sod in San Francisco they will be the S4th and 35th of Nebraska gridders involved in this worthy charity classic. Ed Weir, who captained the 1924 and 1925 NU squad was the first to be named but did not compete because participation in the event would have made him ineligible for the Scarlet track squad. Sauer Greatest of the Husker stars to perform and gain the plaudits of the fans and the press was George Henry Sauer. Sauer scored two touchdowns in the 1934 game to lead West to a 12-0 victory.

He was named first team fullback on the original All-Shrine squad picked from the groups that competed from 1925 through 1938. There have been other Huskers who made excellent showings in the Frisco Dohrmann, Clair Sloan, Blue Howell, Fran list ot grid greats from the Husker state reading like an all star NU squad. Hiihkf'rti Wot Dana X. Bible and Col. Riff as assistant coaches for West at one time or another as did George Sauer in 1947 and Cx-Husker Lonnie Sliner in 1947.

The complete list of Husker player.s who have been picked for the Shnne battle for the past 28 years include George Abel, Marion Broadstone, Charlie Brock, Lloyd Cardwell, Bob DeFruiter, Elmer Dohrmann, Larry Ely, Sam and Vike Francis: Elmer Greenberg. Steve Hokuf, Blue Ilowell, Ed Husmann, Harold Hutchison, Charles Justice. George Kostor, Jerry I.aNoue, Franklin Meier, Lester McDonald, Dan McMullen, Fran Nagle, Tom Novak, Gail Glen Presnell, Roy Randels, Ray Richards, Bob Reynolds, George Sauer, Bernie Scherer, Sam Fred Shirey, Frank Simon, Clair Sloan, Charlie Toogood and Ed Weir. Both Truth Poetry Bill Glassford probably never had a dull moment during the past grid season. When the Huskers won, he was a great guy; When they lost, the barbtn-shop quarterbacks were busy telling him how' to run the ball club.

Some fans would otfer a lineup solution; others criticized the and some sugge.sted perfect scoring plays. All of this banter prompted a very good friend of ours to compose a poem.
