  Nebraska Falls To Northwestern EVANSTON, Ill, Oct. 3. Up Northwestern turned loose just enough OF its heralded offensive power in the first period today to crush Nebraska’s brawny Corn huskers. 10 to z. in the inaugural game OF the Wildcats season. Northwestern ripped into Nebraska with savage fury and before the CornhuSkers could regain their poise. three touchdowns had been rushed over. Nebraska rallied and held the Wildcats almost on even terms the rest Of the way, but that opening blast left the Huskers numb and bewildered. The heavy weight Nebraska line was torn apart and before replacen ents could be rushed into action. the damage had been done and North western settled back TO an expert mental game.
