He made two yards on one try over center". . .

A mid-quarter placement attempt by Vike Francis was blocked to end the first threat and later a fourth down plunge was short on the Sooner 5. With five minutes remaining in the second period, Oklahoma punted into the Husker end zone. From the 20, the Huskers started rolling. On down the field, with Harry Hopp and Wayne Blue al ternating thrusts, the Cornhuskers marched. With a first down on the Sooner 31, Hopp faded back and threw a pass to Allen Zikmund standing near the goal line. Sooner Jack Jacobs tipped the ball but it still fell into "Zik's" hands and he stepped over the final chalk line for the score. Vic Schleich attempted the ex tra point by placement but the kick went wide. The second team, with Hopp at tailback, instigated the drive and completed the march with the touchdown. Oklahoma again had the wind advantage in the third period as they had in the second, but again it proved to no avail. The Husk ers stopped all passing threats by Jacobs and halted the Sooner run ning attack. As the third canto closed, Jac obs punted to "Butch" Luther and the Butcher Boy rambled back from his 5 to the Oklahoma 40. From here, the first team, with Hermie Rohrig at tailback went to the Husker s final score. Francis and Rohrig took turns at advancing the ball to the 12. Three line plays took the ball to the Sooner 6 and then came the play that had the work of a mas ter magician. Tricky plus. Quarterback Roy Petsch settled for one of the trickiest of trick plays. Here is just about how the play functioned (if we are wrong, (See HUSKERS, page 4.) Reserves count plenty in 13-0 Husker win Thirty-five thousand people wit nessed the game at Norman Satur day afternoon against the beefy Sooners of Oklahoma. The deciding factor in the game at Norman was the reserves of the Cornhuskers. A handful of Soon ers carried the load for Coach Tom Stidham while the Huskers played their usual two teams and in the final stanza they were making use of the third stringers. The Husker counters came on running plays and on their old standby, the forward pass. Late In the second quarter the Huskers took the ball on their own twenty yard line and on a sustained drive covered the needed 80 yards to make the points. The climax of this marcp came when Harry Hopp faded back and shot a forward pass to the goal line. Sooner Jacobs was on the ball and apparently batted it down but out of nowhere came Allen Zikmund, who grabbed the ball on the goal line and crossed over. Luther runs. Butch Luther started the ball rolling for the next six points when he fielded a punt on the Husker 5 and snake hipped his way back to the Oklahoma 40. Straight line bucks and end runs gave the Hus kers a first down on the one yard line from where Vike Francis bulled his way thru the middle for the tally. Luther's return of the punt for some 55 yards was Identical to the touchdown gallop in the Minne sota game which was nullified. Or- vie Mathews was doing some fancy ball lugging for the Sooners but could not compare with Luther's run. Jacobs held. Somewhat disappointed were the Husker fans when they failed to see Creek Indian Jack Jacobs do any fancy cutting up. Jacobs re ceived somewhat the same treat ment as Missouri's Paul Chrlstman last week. Outstanding in the work turned in by Jacobs was his quick kick- n mg. aeverai limes ne caugni me Nebraska safety napping and sent the ball spiraling over his head.
