umph n a sun-drenched gridiron,
21 to 13.
Led by the prodigious Billy Hil
lenbrand, Indiana rode the air
lanes for two touchdowns that
punctured Nebraska's victory bub
ble, grown fat and glossy with
easy triumphs over Iowa State and
Kansas.
Huskers Score First.
Husker Allen Zikmund brought
the colorful homecoming crowd on
its feet late in the first quarter by
romping 36 yards to pay dirt in
one of the day's offensive gems.
Zikmund found a wide hole thru
the middle, sidestepped several
would-be tacklers, and sped down
the east sidelines to score stand
ing up.
A startling soph upstart turned
the rejuvent Husker fans' victory
dream into a nightmare. Bill Hil
lenbrand, heralded as the top prep
backfielder in the nation two
years ago, can assume major
credit for the Husker downfall.
Hillenbrand's slouchy gait, which
assumes lightning proportions
when used for ball advancing pur
poses, dominated the scene. He
constantly spun thni the entire
Husker line toward pay dirt, only
to be dragged down by George
Abel or Allen Zikmund. fastest
Husker gridmen.
Hillenbrand Passes.
Charley Jacoby, another soph
back, picked up Hillenbrand's bur
den at times and found the Husk
er line equally vulnerable. Hillen
brand's 36 yard flip to Jacoby pro
vided the first Hoosier marker.
Husker play was brilliant at
times, mediocre at others, with
the latter variety more popular.
Big Howard Debus tossed 36 yards
to Fred Metheny to set the pins
for the second Husker marker. De
bus twice penetrated (he Hoosier
forwards for gains exceeding 40
yards. Heroic in defeat was crip
pled George Abel, who literally
tackled everything that trotted
from the Hoosier bench during the
third period.
Pivot Fred Meier, find Marv
Thompson, and Tackle Joe Byler

powerhouse four plays to make
the necessary yardage, and it was
Hillenbrand who crashed over
from the half to even things up.
A moment later Gene White put
the visitors ahead by a one point
margin.
Indiana struck quickly after the
teams resumed the field to start
the third canto. They kicked off
to the Huskers and then forced
Bradley to kick from his own 24
and Hillenbrand got back to Ne
braska's 48.
They Do It Again.
Using power for four plays and
12 yards, Hillenbrand assumed the
passer s role. He whipped a per
fect strike to Jacoby and the 176
pound sophomore carried it over.
Pass and run were good for 36
yards and agiin White converted.
Seven minutes later saw Ne
braska and Indiana exchanging
quick kicks with the Hoosiers
cainine possession on Husker
property, the 41 to be exact. Hil
lenbrand hit the right side for 15
yards, Jacoby slipped through for
12 and then for 4 to put the ball
on the 10-yard line.
Hillenbrand Tosses Last One,
Hillenbrand struck again for 10
yards with Kenny White on the
receiving end. Again White con
verted. At that point the score
stood 21 to 6.
This ended the Hoosiers' scor
ing for the day, and they sat back
to take it easy. They took it too
easy and let the ball slip on their
own 47; it flew into the brawny
hands of Vic Schleich and the
tables had suddenly turned. Fred
Metheny passed swiftly to Bob
Ludwick for 11 yards down to In
diana's 36, and then Howard De
bus shifted back into the tail spot
from whence he fired an aerial
bomb to Fred Metheny who went
all the way down to the 1-yard
line.
Bhje Scores.
In two plays Wayne Blue parted
the Hoosier line and scored. This
time Schleich split the uprights
and the scoiing was all over with
seven minutes missing in the last
period.
The Indiana team was down on
the Husker 10-yard line when the
final gun sounded, and both teams
knew that they had spent the aft
ernoon well. As a final evaluation,
it was the Hoosier speed concen
trated in two sophomores, Hillen
brand and Jacoby, and their supe
rior down field blocking that
spelled disaster for Nebraska.
Injuries Hurt.
The Huskers were handicapped
by injuries, with Clarence Hern-
don carried from the field: with
Zikmund roughed up; with Abel
limping and with Debus favoring
his back. But the Huskers still put
up a good fight. One decided
weakness, as w as aparent on In
diana's wide sweeps, lay in the
ends.
Stars for Indiana included Hil
lenbrand and Jacoby in two foot
high letters and Kenny Smith
along with Gene White in the line.
Nebraska put Zikmund, Debus
and Metheny in the same category
with George Abel sharing best
lineman honors. Fred Meier gave
everything he had to turn the de
feat into victory but failed.
Sophs Leave
Relay Champs?
Well in Rear
A dropped baton midway during
the race forced Nebraska's Big
Six champion mile relay team to
accept defeat from a Husker
sophomore quartet between the
halves of the Indiana-Husker battle.
Despite the presence of Red Lit
tler, national 44 luminary, an an
chor man, the upperclassmen com
bine ceuldn't make up the 40 yard
deficit. Al Brown finished 36 yards
ahead of the coasting Littler, who
found the soph's lead too great to
argue with.
Bill Sniutz, Arden Kersey and
Don Morris completed the upper
class quartet; Bill Connor, aPul
Davidson and William Rhiel pre
ceeded Brown for the sophomores.
