HealthyRespectShown For Nebraska By Scout
A win-hungry Nebraska football team will "shoot the works" Saturday before thousands of alumni in an effort to stop the University of Kansas. It's the annual Homecoming celebration time for the Cornhuskers.
On paper their chances of slapping an upset on the visiting Jayhawks is slim. Thus far they've yet to win a game. The KU team, on the other hand, played a brand of football last week against K-State that pleased even their coach, J. V. Sikes. And have lost only to Colorado and Oklahoma.
In matching scores of a common opponent, TCU—the Jayhawks won 27-13 while Nebraska lost 28-7. And K-State held the Cornhuskers to a 6-6 tie. In neither game was Bobby Reynolds, around whom the "Husker team was supposed to be built this year, available.
'B' Team Seeks Third Victory
Hub Ulrich's up-again, down-again Jayhawker "B" club deviates from its regular schedule Friday long enough to play a benefit game with an Olathe Naval Air station team at Olathe's Washington field.
The game will start at 7:30 p.m. and is a benefit for the Olathe Community Hospital fund.
Originally slated to go against Kansas State's "B" team this weekend, the Jayhawks had to find a "fill-in" when the K-Staters decided their freshman power wasn't enough for them to complete their schedule
Ulrich's charges slipped from their two-out-of-three win record last week when Oklahoma's reserve aggregation tripped them 31-26. The Jayhawks' only other loss was to Missouri Sent. 21, by a 13-20 count
The Kansans defeated Iowa State 28-0, and bounced Baker university 53-19 for their wins.
Irate Boxer KO's Referee
Miami Beach, Fla. — (U.P.)—Harry Braelow dropped referee Eddie Coachman to the canvas with six vicious blows after Coachman declared the 155-pound southpaw the loser in a boxing match here by a technical knockout.
Coachman stepped in to end Brae-
low's scheduled eight-round bout with Art Davis last night when blood started gushing from the loser's left eye in the fourth round.
"Ive been working hard for this fight," Brauelow explained in his dressing room, "and Coachman kept needlessly riding me. When he stopped the fight, I lost my head."
A shoulder separation sidelined one of the nation's top backs in '50, and it wasn't till last Saturday that he saw full-time duty.
Assistant Coach Hub Ulrich, who scouted Nebraska, reports that Reynolds will be at peak form this Saturday against the Jayhawks. And he also had plenty of respect for John Bordoga, a right halfback, who handles the passing chores for the opposition.
Bitter cold weather is hampering workouts of the Hilltopers. And it now appears that Hal Cleavinger will be out of the KU lineup for the first time this year. His badly bruised knee—hurt in the K-State game, hasn't allowed him to scrimmage at all this week.
Charlie Hoag is also on the doubtful list. Chances are he'll see some action Saturday—as will Bob Brandeberry, who suffered a badly bruised chest in last week's rame.
The team will leave for Lincoln by train Friday afternoon and come back Saturday night.
K-State Believes 'Life Begins At 40'
Manhattan—Seth Swift, Kansas State junior, is one guy who believes in that adage, "Life Begins at Forty."
Mr. Cliche' Offers Advice On How Not To Cover Sports
THE NU CORNHUSKER is all smiles now, but he's in for a rough cultivating when the Jayhawks invade his field Saturday afternoon.
Swift, who had his 39th birthday recently, is a candidate for the Kansas State wrestling team. And, he is dead serious about making the squad.
