sRlooks to be about the best bit of
'fsart manufactured in these parts in
many moons.
asR E. John Stewart, ex-coach of Ne
" braska, says so. Not only does the
various and necessary parts of this
sturdy combination possess weight,
NJ experience and ability, but it is also
we'll balanced and we'll selected. Also
sst there is a formidable corps of sub
.ssstitutes.

First-there are three quarter
backs.
Then--five tackles and six guards.
And no end of ends. And so on.
Captain Paul Dobson, back, is
4 xtar. As a member of the Great
Lakes Naval eleven during the PEE
Rod of the emergency he was stel-
lar back--a punter and drop kicker
! of ability. Ernest Hubka and Har-
old Wilder are all-Missouri valley

end in the valley, while Schellenberg

On the driving power of the men
plus their general foot ball ability
depends the success Of the Husker
claims. Facing the hardest sched-
ule in history--indeed the hardest
attempted by any team in the coun-
try this year-the going will not be
smooth. But the team is we'll bal
anced and by the time Minnesota is
passed should be we'll on its way to
4 perfect record.
Cant say thing" is Schulte's
mien.
Schultz Crafty General.
The head coach is playing a care
full game. His coaching during
scrimmage is especially instructive.
He is a leader with drive-a punch.
When he says anything, he don't
whisper the yells it. So on punt
formation with the squad some 80
yards away and stunt of some kind
pulled wrong it is not uncommon to
have everybody sit silent in awe
while the coach elucidates ideas.
He's Yost to T with the speed
added on.
Under his tutelage the backheld
problem, which was big one on
paper at the start of the season
some IS days ago, has been dealt
with. Henry, Russell, Jobes, Often
stien and Newman all stand in wait
ing on the varsity backs-Schellen-
berg and Dobson. Dale, giant full
back, is one of his early creations.
the big boy having been a lineman
by choice.
Coach Schultz Friday ordered Sc
cret foot ball practice every day

game with the Hawkeyes at Iowa
City. The gates were c1amped
against the curious at the Friday p.
m. drill.

noon over the Rock Island for Iowa
City. The game will be called at $50
O'clock Saturday afternoon. Prac-
tice will be held one afternoon en-
