Cornhuskers turned loose on the Iowa
Aggies in the second quarter OF the an
nUal game staged here today and rushed
three toucAdowns over the Agsie goal
line. Corey booted all three goals and
the final score stood p to o. Nebraska.
In the first, third and fourth periods
the Hawkeye farmers held their own.
They played good foot ball and. while
it was largely a defensive game the
Huskers could not penetrate the defense
at the critical times, But in the second
quarter Nebraska was supreme. The
Aggies never had a chance. When the
period opered Nebraska had the ball on
Ames' thirty-two-yard line The first
play called resulted in a twenty-seven-
yard run by Chamberlain. The big
Husker eEd stumbled through a broken
field TO the five-yard line. Rutherford
gained two yards bucling the line and
Reese gathered in ono. Chamberlain
made the remaining distance around
right end for touchdown and Corey
kicked the goal.
Resort 10 Painting.
Corey kicked off TO Moss after the
touchdown. The Aggies encountered a
stone wall when they attempted to run
the ball and were forced to punt. The
Huskers also punted after Galley was
downed on his own five-yard mark
Again the Aggies tried to gain, but their
attempts were futile. Moss punted to
Rutherford and Dick gathered in the pig
skin on his own twenty-five-yard line and
returned it thirty yards to Ames' forty
five-yard line. The play once more called
for the ever dependable Chamberlain. and
Guy went around right end, broke across
The field back of the Ames line and ran
forty-five yards for his second touch
down. Corey once more kicked the goal.
The third count came quickly. Corey
Kicked to Moss. the Aggies tried to hit
the line. they failed miserably. They
tried to send their fleet footed backs
around the end only to fail at that.
The Husker defense was too powerful,
Ames had to punt.
Again MIR. Chamberlain.
Rutherford received the kick on Ames'
forty-five-yard mark Chamberlain broke
away for thirty yards around right end,
the big end had no trouble In skirting
the Ames' flank. Reese lost five yards,
but Rutherford was on the job with a
twenty-yard run around left end which
Aggie goal Galley attempted to duck
through center. but failed. Rutherford
carried the ball over second later,
but Nebraska was off side and was pen
allied five yards, thus making 1t neces-
sary to try all over again. Galley gave
the ball to Captain Rutherford again and
Dick made good. He put the ball over
for the third touchdown and Corey q
goal made the total count for Nebraska.
81; Ames. o. Chamberlain was again the
Cornhusker star just as he was in the
Notre Dame game. The big Nebraska
end played an irreproachable game, he
easily proved that he is the greatest
open field runner in the west today with
or without interference. Chamberlain
circled the Aggie ends for great gains.
lie carried the ball fully half of the
time and only once when the line gave
away was the thrown for a loss But
Chamberlain was not the only star.
Riddeu stars, Too.
Riddell, who was baffled by the Notrc
Dame interference week ago, came into
his own and played a great defensive
game. Few gains were made around his
flank and he broke up innumerable Aggie
plays before they were started. Shaw,
great game and Earl Abbott once more
showed Nebraska followers that he is a
guard of all Missouri valley calibre.
Loren Galley put up a good battle al
quarter, he used good Judgment all the
way through and his tackling in the
safety position prevented a possible
Ames touchdown.
Despite the fact he has an injured les
giving him trouble, Captain Dick Ruther-
ford played one of the best games Of his
career. He insisted on starting the game
and he refused TO allow Stiehm to remove
him even though his presence was not
needed after that second quarter. Ellis
worth Moser and Jimmy Gardiner, two
Omaha players, played good games, the
former being a power at center and
Jimmy subbing quite successfully fol
Reese in the backfield.
HuaIxer Fans Scared Once.
The Aggies threw a scare into the little
band of loyal Cornhusker rooters who
came over for the combat. After Corey
kicked off to Moss on Ames thirty-yard
mark Aldrich tucked the pigskin under
his wing and romped sixty yards through
the field before little Galley dragged hin
down on Nebraslas elght-yard line
Cornhusker supporters felt bit shakS
after that run. Uhi plunged through fol
three yards. but the Husker line hello
tight. After two attempts to bore through
Ames tried forward pass and the pas,
failed. giving Nebraska a touohback and
the ball.
Nebraska started a rush down the field
with Chamberlain. Reese and Rutherford

Cyclones twenty-yard mark. But here
a forward pass was intercepted and
Stiehm's men lost their chance for &
touchdown in the initial quarter.
