There was only a light workout for the varsity yesterday, and after a light signal arill Coach Hawley dismissed his men. | The Hawkeye mentor forced his scrubs !to tace the freshmen in an hour scrimmage however, and the first year men using Cornhusker formations had but little dif- ficulty in waltzing through the second |string line almost at will. They scored { inumerable touchdowns on the srubs, who |in turn were able to score, but one lono ! counter against the lighter, but shiftier | opponents.

If |Iowa 1s able to stop the big Cornhusker back before he reaches the secondary defense, they have solved thelr biggest problem. Once passed the primary out- posts Chamberlain is likely to wreak disaster on Hawley's' crew. Wyland, an early season candidate for cent showed up well at tackle yesterday af- ternoon and may get a chance against (Nebraska.

Both will be able to play in the final game of the year. Coach Hawley declared today that if the Mne showed any kind of development this week Iowa should be able to put up a good scrap against the Cornhuskers.
