"No team can expect to make
mistakes and still win a ball
game."
These were the words of grid
iron headmaster Pete Elliott as
he prepared the Huskers for the
invasion of Indiana's Hoosiers.
Tuesday, the Big Red worked on
defenses for Saturday and held a
short offensive scrimmage. Elliott
called Indiana the "toughest team
since Ohio State" and expressed
e belief that Nebraska would have
to play its best game to date.
The only lineup change found

team. Lee had been bumped by
another soph, Howard McVay be
fore the K State game.
After viewing the movies over
the weekend, the young mentor
singled out linemen Don Kampe,
Bob Berguin, Jack Fleming and
NEBRASKAN Star of the Week
winner Jim Murphy.
Larry Naviaux, Jerry Brown and
Ceorge Harshman were the backs
that received the plaudits from the
coach.
When asked what he expected
from Indiana, Elliott said that they
banked mainly on their running
game but used flankers quite a
bit and ran" and passed, both from
this formation.
Don Scarbrough, who scouted
4he Hoosiers in their loss to Michi
gan State singled out Bob Fee,
204 pound fullback, as the man
to watch Saturday.
The coaches also cited right end
Brad Bomba and left tackle Mike
Rabold as outstanding linemen for
the Hoosiers.
Center Max Kitzelman has re
turned to active duty after a lay
off due to an Injured shoulder he
picked up in the Ohio State game.
Scatback Bennie Dillard is list
ed as "definitely out" for the
game. He is the only Husker so
listed.
Elliott also said he was plan
ning to work Frank Nappi into the
lineup more. He singled out the
Portland Me, Junior for constant
tiard work and steady Improve
ment. "As a result he will be given
a chance to play more," stated
Elliott.

Jim Murphy, of Columbus, has
again been chosen as "Star of the
Week" by the Nebraskan Staff.
Murphy atood out for the Husk
ers in their losing cause to Kan
sas State. He was his usual self
on offense in opening big holes in
the right side of the line for such
men as Larry Naviaux, George
Harshman, and Jerry Brown to
go through.
On defense Murphy once again
was great. Several time after
Husker punts Murphy got through
to spill the Wildcat backs for lit
tle or no gain at all. He also was
in on a lot of stops in the line.
He was called on for even a bet
ter performance the second half
when his running mate at guard
LaVerne Torczon was on the bench
suffering from a injury from the
first half of play.
Art Klein, a junior letterman,
relieves Murphy occasionally but
the extra experience makes Murph
a little rougher to contend with."
Coach Pete Elliott said that the
movies again gave the Columbus
senior a high grade for this game.
Elliott once said when asked why
Murphy and Torczon didn't get
more praise that they always play
a good game so he looked for
someone else to praise.
Murphy is a terrific competitor
and always has been a fellow who
liked to play football. Murphy says
that he would rather train and
work hard all of the time rather
than not have anything to do. When
Murphy along with the other

Sugar Bowl Loses Prestige ...
It looks as if the Sugar Bowl will become a post-season meeting
ground for strictly southern teams. . .
The Louisiana legislature has passed a bill forbidding white and
Negro athletes to perform together or against one another.
That will undoubtedly limit the schedule of LSU and other Louisiana
colleges to that of playing southern schools.
Many of the major colleges have already cancelled scheduled foot
ball games with LSU and the Sugar Bowl Holiday Basketball Festival
has been thrown into a turmoil with the withdrawal of most of the
northern quintets.
Cerv To Kansas City . . .
Former Cornhusker athlete Bob Cerv has been sold by the New
York Yankees to the Kansas City Athletics. The price is undisclosed.
Cerv batted .301 on the season and had one hit in one trip to the plate
in the '56 World Series.
Bob, who makes his home in Lincoln, is one of the few men In
baseball history to hit a home run as a pinch hitter in a World Series.
This was accomplished in 1955.
I believe that if given the opportunity to play every day, Cerv will
be of great value to the "A's."
Hoop Squad Looks Better . . .
Optimism is always at a high point when an athletic team begins
its pre-season workouts but it looks as though this can be justified in
the case of Jerry Bush's basketball squad.
Last season lack of height and strong bench strength hampered the
Huskers. Although it is too early to analyze the depth and strength of
the club, it looks as though Rex Ekwall will have some help under
the boards.
Terry Howard (6'7"), Ron Parson (6'8"), Bob Karry (6'6") and
George Swank (6'6") carry the hopes for Husker success on their lean
shoulders.
Fall "Spectacular" . . .
The most outstanding half time entertainment of the football sea
son is on tap this Saturday. Band Day, which was originated at Ne
braska when John K. Selleck was business manager of athletics, will
be one of the features at the Indiana-Nebraska game.
There will be 66 bands comprised of 3,686 young musicians to pro
vide the annual splash of color at half time. It should be tremendous
to see and hear so try not to miss it.

Huskers will be trying to get back
in the win column On Saturday
when they play host to Indiana.
The game will be played before
a capacity Band Day crowd at
Memorial Stadium.
Murphy was the first repeat se
lection of the year as Star of the
Week. He also won the honor for
the Ohio State game. Other win
ners have been Torczon, Brown,
and Bob Berguin.
Others who drew praise for last
Saturday's work were Brown, Nav
iaux, Harshman, Don Kampe, and
Jack Fleming.
Brown again was charging hard
from his fullback slot. He was
injured late in the game but should
be ready by Sautrday.
Naviaux drew praise for his play
both on offense and defense. The
Lexington sophomore has gained
