Special no mistake, the drawling citizens down are solidly behind the Sooners this land of oil wells and 3.2 brew, the chatter in cafes, bistros and barber shops revolves mostly around Joe Golding and his Oklahoma grid A (k nationally noted as a grid power, rates nothing more than that's the school down at StlU-.

in these parts. We heard several barber chair fans say that the Sooner victory over Missouri last week was an We had to grab their fumbles to even explained the gentleman Beating Missouri 27-7 cannot be classed as disappointing anyway not in Husker annals There still remains plenty of respect for pre-war Nebraska teams down here Up to the game Saturday, the all-time Sooner percentage of victory against Scarlet elevens was a war-boosied .727. We met a fellow named Frank Barrett in the lobby of the Biltmore hotel Frank, a former Lincoln resident, is the brother of Art and Max, the official He remembers Bcr- nie Masterson from the days the Husker coach used to practice swimming at the where he was an instructor Another present Oklahoman who was rooting for the Huskers was A.

A stage show, featuring Henry King, was the Friday night menu for the NU squad is home territory for Mike DiBlase, 230-pound Scarlet tackle Mighty Mike played with the Norman Zoom- ers, a navy eleven, during the war Fullback Gerry Moore was stationed near Oklahoma City as a pilot. Every Big Six school in our memory starts Saturday games at 2 p. except the Sooners, who persist in keeping that late 2:30 p. starting time especially tough on members of the newspaper fraternity with early deadlines The Huskers were impressed by the size of Taft stadium, scene of the Friday workout Although used as a prep field, the stadium is as large as most in the Big Six Oklahoma has a keen ear cocked to national grid honors in the near future Most game stories on the OU-NU game were slanted toward giving the Sooners a comparison with the Rose Bowlers of UCLA, foe in Los Angeles Saturday An amusing sidelight on the train trek into Oklahoma City was the conversation between Ad Lewandowski, NU athletic director, and an officer in the Chinese The Far Eastern gentleman sat near Lew and cropped up with a conversation that a bit too broken for immediate interpretation.

The University of Georgia Bull- dogs overpowered the stubborn; University of Chattanooga Moccasins for three quarters Saturday in win handily, 48-27, before anj overcoated homecoming crowd of 10 000 The contest practically assured the Bulldogs, who played most of the game with the mighty Charley Trippi on the bench, of a post season bowl bid. Georgia meets Georgia Tech next week. Probably the most exciting menta came in the last quarter when little Chattanooga, still fighting valiantly, scored three touchdowns chiefly thru the air. Little All-America candidate Gene Roberts, leading scorer of the nation, and Passer Howard Derrick sparked the Moccasin comeback.

Trippi, who rolled thru the Chattanooga line with ease, played only long enough to build lead to 19-0. Huskers (('nntinupd from Pagp Goad who did the dirty work, fie snared a pass from Darrel Royal for 14 yards to put the leather on the Nebraska 16 and a moment later took another flip from the O.U. game captain on the 8-yard stripe and bucked his way thru three Husker tacklers to score. This time Marlin's kick was wide. Little Dick Hutton and Cletus Fischer w'ere bc.st ground gainers and was always dangerous.

Carl SamueLson and Gene Wilkins were most effective in the line. The Grand Island tackle played 55 minutes of the game.

Twenty-nine football, basketball and track athletes at N.U. have already received first-half payments on $200 scholarships and. as the alumni letter points out, completion of this initial grant will take more cash than is now on hand in the fund.

To make it a little clearer to those who think the main purpose is to provide each football regular with a new limousine, the letter cites the case of a typical football player who must practice a minimum of three hours a day, six days a week in the spring and fall, at the same time maintaining satisfactory grades in 12 hours of college work. SOMEWHERE along the line this hopeful letter-winner musti find time to earn enough money for board, room, tuition, fees, books and clothes. To quote the letter, may be interested in the young lad, but we can neither do his I studying nor play his football. But we can make easier his task of finding funds for tuition, for fees and for Such a scholarship as the fund provides for (similar to those given outstanding music students, artists, writers, etc.) might have kept at home a few of the dozen former Nebraska high school athletes now performing for schools across the country from California U. in the west to Cornell in the east.

AT THE END of the appeal for aid is some very rich food for thought: A 1947 Husker grid schedule which includes, among others, such foes as Minnesota, Indiana, Oregon State, Oklahoma, Missouri and Notre Dame.
