Nebraska Gets Lead
In Loop as Power
Routs Oklahoma
BY the Associated Press.

NORMAN, Okla, Nov. 2.-Nebras-
ka's mighty Cornhuskers powered
their way to 13-to-0 victory over
the Sooners of Oklahoma today to
take over first place in the Big Six
Conference gridiron race and move
within striking distance of their
first title since 1897.
AS record-breaking crowd of
more than $4,000 looked on, the
Huskers drove 80 yards to one touch
down in the second quarter, 40 yards
to another in the final period, tied
the Sooner ground attack in knots
and blasted the home clubs over
head game.
Thrown back twice in the first
quarter with the goal line only 5
yards away, the Nebraskans finally
went to work in earnest.
Helpless as they were, most of the
way, the Sooners had at least three
chances to score but couldn't break
away.

Eagles Hold Big Edge
In First 7 Periods,
But Can't Score
Speiss and Krug Spark
Cadets, Robu Star for
Foe in Goal Drives
By GEORGE HUBER.


st. Johns and Gonzaga had 1t
out hot and heavy in the mud of
Griffith Stadium yesterday, battling
to a 6-to-6 tie in their annual pa
rochial school classic before 5000
spectators.
The Johnnies hardly left the
shadow of their own goal posts in
the first half as the favored Con-
zaga eleven threatened time and
again to make a walkaway of the
game, but they came out for the
second half a rejuvenated team,
carried the fight to the Eagles all
during the third quarter and scored
at the start of the final. The
Eagles marched right back to tally
and gain a draw.
Buddy Speiss husky and capable
halfback, led the Johnnies to a
touchdown. He ran a punt back
from the Gonzaga 40 to the rs to
start things. Harold Krug pounded
through tackle for yards and
Speiss picked up the other two for
first down on the Is. Then, as the
final period got under way. Speiss
heaved a pass to Steve Burns, who
had tented his way clear to Con-
zaga's goal. Burns gathered in the
ball and stepped across unmoleSted.
Conversion Attempt Blocked.
Steve's attempted placement was
blocked, but still St. Johns was
leading, 60, and it looked to be
an upset for while. Previous to
the touchdown, the Johnnies made
threatening gestures with a drive
from midfield. With the entire
backfeld-Speiss, Krug, Burns and
Tom Chisari-taking turns at hit
ting the suddenly weak Gonzaga
line, they reached the 5. They
stopped there when Krug's lateral
was fumbled and the oval shared
for Gonzaga by Bob ODonnell
lanky end who played bang-up
defensive game all afternoon.
The Eagles bounded right back,
taking the kickoff on their own q
and starting from there. Elmer
Raba, who spanked Gonzaga to its
win last week over Tech, again was
the big gun. He passed to Bob
Mulvihin for % yards, slid around
right end to the Johnny 81, passed
to ODonnell for II yards and passed
again to Joe Mullin to reach st.
Johns Is. There a penalty put
the Eagles on the 1-yard stripe and
Raba skirted right end for the tying
touchdown. His attempted dropGick
for the extra point was DETECTED.
Pass Interception Ends Game.
Later in the contest, when a pen
atty put st. Johns back on its own
6, Bernie Healy of Gonzaga returned
punt 10 yards to the Johnnies' 81
and Raba reached the 81. The game
ended there as Krug intercepted a
pass by Raba.
In the first half, Gonzaga did ev-
erything to st. Johns but score on
1t and spent the entire 20 minutes
threatening to do so. Raba'S long
kicks and Harold Hartman'S equally
long runbacks for Gonzaga gave the
Johnnies hardly time to plan. Con-
zagas drives in the first quarter
reached the Johnnies' % and 26.
respectively, and in the second quar-
ter, when the Eagles reached the
enemy 24-yard stripe before being
begged down, Raba attempted to
dropkick a field goal. The boot was
blocked, but shortly after Gonzaga
again was pounding on the door, a
pass from Raba to Healy reaching
the Is as the half ended.

Sprinkle to Tom Simpson, who
raced A yards across the goal.
Simpsons placement was low.
Match Tallies In Second.
Both teams scored in the second,
leaving the Jackets leading by a
point at the half. A 45-yard punt
return by Brown Phelps put Ran
dolph-Macon in scoring position,
Ike Kovar going over from the S.

place-kicking the point. Simpson
went into the center of the line
and tipped a lateral to Sprinkle
who reversed his field and ran 40
yards around left end for the Eagle
touchdown. Sprinkle also place
kicked goal.
Randolph Macon clinched the
game by scoring twice in the third,
the first time on a 20-yard pass
from Brown Phelps to Golubic. who
ran five for touchdown. Brown
Phelps missed the placement. After
a drive to the Eagle Is, Phelps on
a reverse handed the ball to Steve
Gergley who sped Is yards around
left end for a touchdown. Golubic
place-kicked the extra point.
71-Yard March Fruitless.
Sprinkle and Simpson led a IL
yard march in the final period to
the Jacket 4, but on fourth down
Simpson was spilled for 6-yard
loss and this ended the scoring op-
portunities of the Eagles.
Brown Phelps paced the Yellow
jacket attack, passing accurately as
well as doing his share of ball
carrying. Bob Lanzilotti, who started
the game at left tackle for the
Eagles, went out in the second
quarter with a pulled muscle in his
right thigh after a brilliant per-
Torrance.

The Board of Directors of the N. w. Alaska Chamber of Com. merce met Thursday noon at the North Pole Bakery for a special meeting to consider a telegram handed to them by Alfred J. Lo- men which he had received from Joe Wallace in Seattle.
 The telegram asked MT. Lo- men to secure statements from civic organizations as to the need of a hotel in Nome. Inasmuch as he is leaving for the States, he handed the telegram to the Chamber.

 The telegram mentioned that an attempt was being made to finance the construction of the hotel, estimated total cost furnish ed at $54,000 through the Recon struction Finance Corporation, and through local stock solicita- tions. Prompt action was empha sized so that if the plan goes through construction could com mence upon the arrival of the first boats.

 The second game between the High School and Alaskans was a bit more lively than the first game and it ended in a tie so that an overtime inning was played, the Alaskans squeezing in one more run and shutting out the High School to win the game.

Little Brown Mother
By Horace Allen

She is a dear, sweet, tender soul,
With heart so true and fine,
That withstood all the trials of
years,
That little mother of mine.
She is not the kind you oft hear of,
Blue eyed, and skin called fair,
Who came through life in wealth
and ease,
Through life that's mild and fair.
She is just a little brown skinned
soul,
With knotted, wrinkled hands,
Made rough and ugly by hard toll,
That's why l think her grand.
Those hands l love with all my
heart.
Each wrinkle on her brow
Are tokens of her deathleSS love,
That's why l love her now.
She has made a heaven here on
earth,
Faced hardships with a smile,
Gave her all for those she loved,
Made life a thing worth while.
Spread sunshine everywhere she'd
go,
Gave help to young and old,
Never failed to do her bit
No matter hot or cold.
She is the grandest of the grand,
A rose without a thorn,
Tried and true, came up through
fire,
An angel she was born,
And now her praise l shout on
high,
Her life and works were fine.
No one on earth can take the place
Of that little brown mother of
mine.
