Through the courtesies of Bobby
Newman's deft right arm and Jack
Farming's sticky fingers the Wash
ington State Cougars completely
anialated the Nebraska Cornhusk
ers Saturday drubbing the home
team by a score of 34-12.
There were 31,000 fans who wit
nessed the onslaught which proved
to be one of the poorest played
games by a Nebraska team in
many seasons.
From the very outset of the con-
: test the Washington State club
j completely dominated the stadium
scene wlith its passing techniques
. and did not relent until the final
gun sounded.
Although Washington State was
the victor, it was quarterback Bob
Newman who remained solely re-
j sponsible for the Husker defeat.
Newman was second in the Pacific
Coast League last year in passing
and Saturday began a seige of ;
passing- for this season that could j
,net him the top notch in that de-!
partment on the coast.
Ties Prominent In Openei
Iowa State Dovns Denver
By RON SHAHEEN
Staff Sports Writer
Iowa State, rated to finish in
the Big Eight cellar, was the only
team other than Oklahoma to sal
vage a victory in the conference
in last Saturday's season openers.
The Cyclones made their debut
as a single-wing team a success
with a 10-0 victory over a fumbling
Denver University team. Iowa
State looked like a much different
team than the one which finished
in the cellar last year with a 2-8
record.
Iowa State tasted first in the
second period on a 37-yard field
goal by tackle Lyle Carlson. The
Cyclones gained their field goal
attempt by recovering a punt
which was bohb'ed by Denver on
their own 30-yard line. Iowa State
could not advance the ball in three
p'.ays so Carlson calmly stepped
back and booted the field goal.
The Cyclones came back after
the halftime break to start a 62
yard touchdown drive. The drive
was sparked by a long pass from
tailback Dwight Nichols to end Jim
Stueike. and a deceptive reverse
by halfback Jim Lary. Nichols
capped the scoring drive by cir
cling the end for the final six
yards. Carlson converted to make
the score 10-0.
It was Iowa State's first shutout
since it blanked Drake, 33-0, in
1934.

made a spectacular catch on the

With or.ly secoods remaining on
the clock Bd Marshall fired the
ganje-tvjcg pass to Leuavits, who
tacked in the slippery pigskin on
the eight and traced over as the

Kansas State threatened serious
ly two different times, however
time ran out on them before they
could push the ball across. K-State
was on the one yard line as the
first half ended and they were on
the six yard line as the final gun
sounded.
Halfback Geue Keady scampered
70 yards to tally Kansas State's
first and only touchdown. Don
Zadnich kicked the extra point.
Quarterback Larry Zowada was
the sparkplug for Wyoming as he
scored one touchdown and set up
the other. Zowada fired several key
aerials which proved instrumental
in Wyoming's win.
Oklahoma State, newly admitted
member of the Big-Eight, lost a
muddy 12-0 game to Arkansas.
The Cowboy's staved off several
Arkansas scoring threats in the
first half, but Arkansas was not
to be denied as they came roaring
back to tally two touchdowns in
the last half.
Arkansas played a conservative
game and they were willing to
set back and let the Co boy's take
the chances. The Porkers quick
kicked six times in the first half.

alternative which they quickly ac
cepted; take to the air. Stevens'
running and Newman's passing
put the Washington State club on
the 2'i yard line with seven min
utes to go in the half. A familiar
combination teamed up to earn six
more points for the Cougars. New
man passed to Fanning in the cor-
ner of the end zone to run the
' State total to 13.
Next it was Bunny Aldrich's
turn at the Cojgar helm. Aldrich
was in just long enough to add to
the Cougar scoring total. After a
50 yard punt hy Jerry Brown of
the Scarlet and Cream, Aldrich
flipped passes to lead the WSC
crew to another six-pointer. His
last pass to Codgill gav the Sath
; erland mentored men their final
first half TD. Then Bunny boosted
the Cougar total to 20 with a con
version kick.
At this late stage in the half
the Cornhuskers made another bid
for pay dirt with an aerial attack.
There were three minutes left in
j the second stanza when Naviaux
! connected with Dillard. Then Dil
' lard flipped to Engle for nine
, yards. A running play by Dillard
; picked up only one yard so Stin
: nett picked up the passing game
; and hit Hilding for two straight.
Sitnnett's next pass was intercept
ed, however, to end the half with
' Washington State on up by a 20-6
score.
The second half started off in
. favor of the Huskers when, on the
kickotf, Tolly recovered a fumble
created by a Jerry Brown tackle.
Three plays later the Huskers
tightened the score hy six points
when Tolly crashed over from the
one inch line. Naviaux's kick was
no good to leave the score re
maining at 20-12.
From this point on the game
turned into a free-for-all highlight
ed by fumbles, interceptions, and
sloppy playing. With one minute
left in the third chapter of the tilt
Newman again found Fanning in
the end zone to chalk up his third
TD pass of the game. His point
after touchdown pushed up the
Cougar point total and pushed
down the Husker spirit.
The fourth quarter playing con
sisted of every infraction of basic
football fundamentals on the part
of both teams. Mid-way in the
quarter Moreil of WSC charged
over from the four yard line to
conclude the scoring for both
sides as well as to break up the
monopoly of pass touchdowns.
Jones kicked the conversion to
give Washington a total of 34
pints to 12 tallies for the Huskers.
AH tolled, the statistics show the
story of the game very well, other
than firt downs of which the
Scarlet and Cream netted only one
less than the Washington team.
The stellar players of the game
were most of the Washington team
plus McCashland on the line for
the Huskers and Dillard in the
backfiekl for the Jennings crew.

The Sooner's initial contact with
paydirt came in the second period
as a 12 yard pass from Jackie
Sandefer to Joe Rector climaxed a
51 yard drive. Carl Dodd added the
conversion and Oklahoma grabbed
a 7-4 lead.
On the 'first play of the third
period Pitt's rookie quarterback
