A spirited group of Kansas students made Cornhusker fans sit up and take notice by their school spirit in Lincoln, Saturday. The rooter, mostly Ku Kul's and Jay Janes who had chartered busses to the game, yelled louder and longer than any group we've seen at any home game.
The Kansas student body, which specializes in demonstrating great spirit during basketball season, when K.U. is winning, ould take a lesson from this little group, which made the team know it had plenty of backing—even in that discouraging first half.
MASSACRE MARQUETTE
Nebraska notes; LeRoy Robison, K.U.'s injured veteran fullback, watched the Husker tilt from the press box, where he was spotting for a radio commentator. Robbie saw his teammates make a valiant second-half comeback in a game which they had dedicated to him. . . Members of the football squad attended the Homecoming dance on the Nebraska campus before traintime Saturday night. . . Nebraska roots staged a colorful Homecoming show throughout the game. With colored cards, the cheering section formed "Hi, Grads," made a big Jayhawker and an "N" for Nebraska, and formed a gold discharge button, which received applause from the stands. The Nebraska cheering section and cheerleaders were on both sides of the field. . . "Tex" Langford, game captain, was carried out of the game in the second quarter but was back in at his center post at the second half kick-off. Tex leaped high in the air to make a neat interception of a Husker forward in the first half. . . Three of the four Husker touchdowns were made on spectacular break-aways of 69, 62, and 56 yards.
MASSACRE MARQUETTE
The Pickographers' percentage went down this weekend, with our campus experts choosing only two winners out of four. The prognostiators were off the beam in picking the Oklahoma Sooners to beat Texas Christian and on the Cornhusker tilt, with the home team.
These leave Missouri and Oklahoma still tied for the Big Six lead, both teams having lost to non-conference foes. The T.C.U. game was Oklahoma's second loss to a Southwest conference team this fall. The Sooners fell to Texas, 12-7.
Jayhawks Act Too Late to End 29-Year Jinx
A spirited second-half rally by the University of Kansas was not enough to halt the victory-starved Nebraska Cornhuskus, who humbled their ancient foes, 27-13, in Lincoln, Saturday.
The Jayhawkers stood gaping the first half, while Nebraska put on a solo act in windswept Memorial stadium, scoring in each of the first two quarters. It looked like a romp for the Cornhuskers, with the Jayhawkers showing no offensive and little defensive talent that first half.
Schmidt Scores
Kansas' surprise scoring thrusts began late in the third quarter, with the dismayed Cornhuskers watching the Jayhawkers march goalward from the K.U. 5-yard stripe in 17 plays. It was Dave Schmidt, Milwaukee V-12, playing his usual consistently good game, who scored on a beautiful fourth down end around sweep. End Norm Pumphrey's place-kick was low.
The Jayhawkers tallied again four minutes later. Moving 77 yards in seven plays, they set up a second touchdown by an aerial netting 23 yards from George Gear to Harlan Harmon, and a 24-yard dash by Frank Pattee through the left side of the Husker forward wall. Pattee's parade looked like a touchdown, but he was forced out on the 1-foot line. Gear went over on a quarterback sneak, and this time Pumphrey's kick was good, to make it Nebraska 14. K.U. 13.
Huskers Revive
While Jayhawk rooters chanted "Just two more" the Huskers came out of their stupor, to score one play after the kickoff. Phil Young, freshman ball-toter, sprinted 62 yards to put the Huskers in a safer lead, 200-13.
Kansas started a desperate last-quarter aerial attack, seeing a chance to tie the Huskers, but one of the passes ended in the alien arms of Art Bauer, who raced 56 yards to the Kansas 1-foot line, where he was forced out by Harmon. Phil Young scored again on a line plunge and the kick was good, making a final count of 27-13. The game ended a few plays later on a Nebraska interception.
Jayhawk backers were pleased to see their team come out of the slump in which it has been since the Oklahoma lacing a few weeks ago. The main regret is that the coma ended too late.
