The Kansas Jayhawkers will be seeking their 3rd win in a row this Saturday when they meet the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
Playing before an expected 25,-000 homecoming fans, the Jayhawkers are rated favorites over Nebraska in a rivalry which dates back to 1892.
In the long series only three of KU's victories have come at home. The last time the Jayhawkers defeated the Nebraska team at home was in 1948 when Dick Gilman threw three touchdown passes to lead the team to a 27-7 victory. In 1944 the Jayhawkers won here 20-0.
"They are one of the better teams on our schedule and the recent turmoil at Lincoln should add to their incentive," added Mitchell.
Kansas Must End Jinx To Beat Nebraska Here
"Two things could keep us back in this game," Coach Jack Mitchell said. "It seems that we just don't beat them in Lawrence. The Nebraska team is without injuries now, for the first time since it played Penn State."
The turmoil Mitchell made reference to is that Nebraska Coach Bill Jennings was hung in effigy this week. The Jennings-coached Huskers went through a 1-9 season last year. Coming into Saturday's game, the NU team has won two and lost five.
NU opened its season with a surprising 14-7 upset victory over Penn State. Since then it has been hit by numerous injuries.
"One of the men to watch in the Nebraska backfield is sophomore Pat Fisher," Mitchell said. "With himNU is a good team. Without him they are just fair."
One of Jennings' problems is that his Nebraska team is young and lacks experience. The NU starting lineup will be mostly sophomores and juniors.
Fisher is a 163-pound sophomore halfback who sparked the Cornhuskers in their win over Penn State. Following that game he has been bothered by injuries. Saturday will be the first time that he will be ready for full speed action.
The Huskers will be out to win the game. They end their schedule with games with Oklahoma and Pittsburgh University after the KU game. The chances of winning either one of these games is slim.
On the other hand, Coach Mitchell reports that the Jayhawkers are in as good physical shape as they have been all year. Listed as doubtful starters earlier in the week, Walt

Schmidt and John Peppercorn will be ready to play.
In defeating Kansas State last week, the Jayhawkers showed a powerful offense to go with their strong defense. The 21 points scored in that game matched the entire season's total. ___
Four teams proved their strength in intramural football games yesterday and advanced into the finals of league playoffs.
LEONARD'S STANDARD 9th & Indiana
The Templinites rolled to victory by trimming Stephenson 26-0. Jerry Macomber starred for the Templinites by intercepting two passes and running for another. Haines connected with three touchdown passes to Jeff Schwerin, Mike Zakoura and Macomber. The Templinites will play the Hicks Thursday for the Independent Championship.
Templinites Win Again
Phi Gamma Delta I moved into the Fraternity B finals by beating Pi Kappa Alpha 12-2. Brent Stonebraker ran for one score and Dick Lee caught a pass for another.
Beta Theta Pi had a harder time squeezing past Alpha Tau Omega 9-6. Foster scored six for the victors and Larry McCully kicked a field goal for the winning margin for the Betas.
Beta Theta Pi I had little trouble defeating Kappa Sigma 31-12. The Betas and Phi Gams will clash today in Fraternity B playoff for their league championship.

The Daily Kansan, it seems has wounded some souls on the Kansas State College campus.
And if ever a coach was "over the fire" coach Mertes is—at least with a victory-hungry segment of the Kansas State student body. The Sunday morning after the game, students chose to express their dissatisfaction by hoisting a free-swinging effigy of the coach from a tall tree on the Wildcat campus.
"It appears the Jayhawkers are not content with putting their own coaches over the fire annually, but are now trying to put Bus Mertes in the same position."
And, to display their continuing dismay with the Wildcat coach's record, the act has been repeated twice this week.
Dissatisfaction? Apparently.
On Monday this newspaper reported a growing amount of student dissatisfaction with the Wildcat coach, Bus Mertes.
This article was liberally quoted in the Kansas State Collegian, the student newspaper. The newspaper said:
Don Olson was the busiest football player on the Nebraska squad last fall as a sophomore tackle. He played 423 minutes out of a possible 600.
