Jayhawks Face Strong Defensive Husker Team
Kansas will field an injury-niddled team against the Huskers from Nebraska Saturday in the annual Homecoming game in Memorial stadium.
Charlie Hoag, Jayhawker candidate for all-American honors, probably will miss the game because of a badly sprained knee. He has not been running in practice this week.
Gil Reich, John Konek, and Galen Fiss are expected to see some duty Saturday, but because of their injuries may have to sit out a good portion of the Homecoming game. The Jayhawkers will sorely need the abilities of all these men in
the game with Nebraska, since the Huskers have one of the strongest defensive units in the conference. In spite of their unimpressive season record of four wins, two losses and a tie. In seven games this season the Huskers have allowed opponents only 63 points.
record in the series. However, the Jayhawkers have won four out of the last five games, losing a 28-33 thriller here in 1950.
Nebraska, in contrast to Kansas, will have its left halfback ace Bobby Reynolds ready for his first startling duty in a month. He has been out since he suffered a shoulder separation in the Kansas State game.
The game will be the 59th meeting between Kansas and Nebraska. The Huskers hold an impressive 41-14-3
Hoag, if he is able to play Saturday, may be able to break a couple more records. He already owns KU's career rushing mark, and breaks his own record every time he gains a yard. Now he is only 89 yards shy of the 2,000 yard mark having added 466 yards this season to bring
him to the 1911 yard total.
Houg also is only 76 yards away from Missouri's Harold Carter's pass receiving record of 456 yards, a mark which was set last season.

their fifth round of intramural football competition with wins Thursday.
When the game ended, both teams were given four downs with the team making the most yardage winning. An alert Phi Kappa Sig line broke through to smother the Phi Kappa Tau passer on each down. The winners picked up 5 yards on a Bob McMullen pass.
Alpha Tau Omega spoiled Delta Tau Delta's homecoming by racking them 20 to 0.
Battenfeld forfeited its scheduled contest with Oread in one of the Independent A division contests. In a battle of the service, AROTC reigned victorious by drubbing NROTC 44 to 0.
John Trombold, ATO standout, was a major factor in the Delt's defeat as he intercepted a pass in the first quarter which netted ATO its first tally. John Wynkoop accounted for the victor's other touchdowns as he passed to Bob Toalson and Bill Brook.
