erway falls back
The Huskers', Don Erway fell back to second place in Big Seven
scoring as Oklahoma's Sooners, third-ranking team in the nation and
undefeated in three games to date, took a firmer grip on the Big
Seven Conference football statistics in last week
McDonald ng yards on 32 attempts.
MacDonald's two touchdowns against Texas established him solidly
as the leading individual scorer with 30 points. Erway has scored
24 points.
Erway stayed among the conference's top three passers with the
total of ten completed passes out of 31 heaves for a total yardage of
126 yards. DaVe Doane of Missouri, who completed 14 of 22 for 170
yards against SMU, still is on top. His season total is, 24 of 51 for
454 yards. Wally Strauch of Kansas has 14 of 37 for 197.
Bob Whitehead of Kansas State didn't add to his total Saturday
but remained the number one punt returner with two runbacks aver
aging 27.5 yards. He is followed by John Traylor, Kansas, and Rex
Fischer, Nebraska, with 13 yard averages, and Clendon Thomas of
Oklahoma, who has returned five for a 12.4 average. Fischer has
brought the ball back three times for a total of 39 yards.
philosophy on pigskin drouth ...
A football game can come to one of three conclusions. Usually there
is a winning team and a losing team and in some instances neither
team wins.
In only one of these instances is a football team really happy
that is if they are desirous of success, fame and fortune.
In other words, more times than not, an unhappy team walks off
the football field. And there are usually happy and unhappy fans just
as there are loyal and not so loyal fans.
And after a football game is over, all of the fans leave the sta
dium in much the same manner that they came in.
Imagine the little youth of some future date as he questions his
old grandfather, class of 55, about that ill fated October Saturday.

has let her hair down, buried her
family pride and gone out for
soccer baseball, tennis, and arch

The soccer baseball teams sched

The pigskin spoltlight falls on
Pitt Stadium this Saturday after
noon as the Nebraska Cornhuskers
and the Pittsburgh Panthers tangle
in aonther grid tussle which should
thrill the many grid fans.
The Huskers, smarting from a
27-0 setback at the hands of Texas
A & M, will be in prime condi
tion for this game. On the other
hand, Pitt, who was victor jous over
Syracuse and California in their
opener, has gone down to two pow
erful teams, Navy and Oklahoma.
In the Sooner game, the Panthers
picked up a pair of tallies in the
second half and played a com
parable brand of football.
Nebraska will have their job cut
out for them in Saturday's clash
as the Panthers possess a fierce
"get-up-and-go" attack. Coach Bill
Glassford will be looking for a
rugged ground on the part of the
Pennsylvania boys as they

against a total of 204 yards in the
air.
The Huskers will have to play
good football right from the open
ing gun as the Panthers have
been proved to be a great second
half team. ' They won against
Syracuse and California in the
second half and scared Oklahoma
in the same two periods.
Physically, the Panthers have
enjoyed good fortune thus far in
the season. Aside from an injury
to fullback Tom Jenkins earlier in
the season, the team is in excellent
shape.
Pittsburgh has two outstanding
runners in Jenkins and Corky
Cost who picked up 51 yards in
the Sooner game.
Cost will share passing duties
with Corny Salvaterra who com
pleted 8 of 18 passes and also
rolled 78 yards on the ground in
the Oklahoma tussle. Another back
fieldman to watch Saturday will
be halfback Dick Bowen.

cuse with 46 net yards in 10 at
tempts. In attempting to stem the Pan
ther tide, Glassford will have to
rely on all tricks he's got up that
sleeve. So far, the Husker passing
attack has not proved a worthy in
strument enough to cut the fighting
heart of the opponents.
The Aggie offensive made the
Nebraska aerial attack look rath
er drab. However, the Ohio State
performance gives us one consola
tion that there is still spark left.
Needless to say, the Pitt eleven
has the odds in this Saturday's
contest. If the Ohio game is any
indication of the Husker's reaction
to a really rugged team, the Corn
huskers might likely show the
many arising dissenters that they
do deserve just credit.
Glassford's boys will work at
home through Thursdays then will
fly to Pittsburgh on Friday. Coach
Glassfor:! will be in his home ter
ritory so he will probably will be
better able to outguess his old ac
quaintances and new opponents.
Let's hope so!
