Jim Murphy, senior co-captain
and starting guard from Columbus,
has been chosen as this weeks
'Star of the Week" by the Ne
braskan. Murphy was outstanding
in the Husker line against the pow
erful Ohio State squad last Sat
urday. .
He was continually charging
through to stop the fleet footed
Buckeye backs before they could
get a good start.
Murphy won two letters as a
guard. First as a second unit
guard then again last year he
started as a guard and was one of
the stalwarts until he suffered a
broken leg in practice following the
Ohio State contest.
Murphy was out until the final
game when he got in a few min
utes of action. In all, because of
his injury, he played only 117 min
down run be Keith Williams.
Carroll, Powers, and Butcher
looked good for the Phi Kapps,
for the Methodists Williams and
Ficke stood out.

ing period to brab a 12-0 victory
from the Cornhusker Co-op.
Bill Reed accounted for all of
the Alpha Sigs scoring. He passed
to Moyn Keim for one touchdown
and ran 20 yards for the other.
Cornhusker Co-op played the Sigs
on equal terms for the rest of the
game, but could not make up the
first period deficit.
CORRECTION
It was erroneously reported in
Tuesday's edition of the Nebras
kan that the Theta Chi's defeated
the Cornhusker Co-op in an intra
mural football game last Thursday.
The Theta Chls defeated Pioneer
Co-op, instead.

In high school Murphy lettered

lastically. Last semester Murphy

Murphy is majoring in Physical
Education.
Also nominated for the honor

Series Lineups
BROOKLYN Whitey Ford will
go against Sal Maglie of the Dodg
ers in the opening game of the
World Series this afternoon at Eb
bets Field.
For Nebraskans, the game will
be televised over NBC beginning
at 11 a.m. CST.
The Yankees, favored by sports
watchers of the major news serv
ices, will have Yogi Berra catch
ing and the Brooks have Roy Cam
panella lined up for that spot.
is 19 year old sophomore Terry
Ingram. Ingram will be backed
up by Jim Kudlinski whose fine
passing set up both Cyclone scores
last Saturday.
The halfbacks will be Paul
Shupe and wither Fred Ripple or
Chuck Latting. Ripple played fine
ball last season before breaking
his leg. Latting scored both Iowa
State touchdowns against North
western last weekend with runs
of 33 yards and 15 yards.
Marv Walter, 200 pound junior
from Northboro, Iowa, ,will be the
starting fullback. Walter's running
has been outstanding in the first
two games of this season.
The Cyclones, in the third year
of a rebuilding program, are, for
the first time too deep every
where. Coach DiFrancesca purposi
ly blooded his sophomores last
season, starting nearly all of them
at one time or another. Defense
is the strong point of the team.
Lack of speed in the backfield,
however, will hamper the offense
and poor punting could keep the
team off balance. Yet Di Fran
ceses says: "this is the best team
in our three years. If our young
players arrive on schedule, we'll
contend with all 10 foes."
Saturday's contest takes on add
ed interest by its official designa
tion as "Migration Day" for the
Iowa State student body. One of
the biggest crowds to follow an
Iowa State team on a road trip
is expected in Lincoln this week
end.
It is not only the prospect of
getting an earlier look at a vast
ly improved Iowa State team that
is attracting the students and
towns people to Lincoln. It is the
hope of seeing the Cyclones end
a streak of 10 straight Cornhusk
er victories in the Nebraska se
ries.
Iowa State victories have been
few and far between in the Ne
braska series but it has been the
recent streak that has been mcut
galling. Many times in the past
decade, Iowa State fans have com
plained that the Nebraskans did
not deserve to win and were out
played by the Cyclones.
One rabid fan bought his ticket
last week with the hope "that this
is it" and the determination to be
on hand if "it" was.
