recent spring exhibition finales intrasquad game may be productive of many errors mental and mechanical A mediocre showing will be disappointing but not dis couraging The past two years Coach Devaney has had at his com mand at least one veteran eleven which moved along with momentum generated the preceding season rjC JjC Lack of Polish TONIGHT Devaney cannot assemble even one unit which will be a senior junior combination next fall This does not mean the game will not be interesting ans willing to shell out two bucks will see new plays and possibly a few new formations Most of these patterns will not be recognizable to Coach Devaney or his aids Having had little opportunity to polish team play the young athletes merely will be trying to make the best of what could be an embarrassing situation Democratic Way AS THE 20 session sDring training closes there is evidence that much must be accomplished early next fall if the Cornhuskers are to have a satisfactory season Unfortunately the call for spring candidates was on a one come basis The result was an army strong in numbers rather than a bountiful supply of talent The one hundred trainees included a couple who had difficulty making the grade in high school football This democratic way of doing athletic business is ap plauded by some university administrators who labor under the impression college sports should be for the masses However it is talent not numbers that produces vic tories necessary to meet the tremendous Athletic Depart ment budgets the eighth Los Angeles Wills ss Gilliam 3b Davis cf Davis If airly lb
