Huskers Make Grade In Biff
Slow Start
Harshman
By Charles Coffin
Chief cause of contentment
among Husker fans after Sat
urday's game was not the
final score NU 7, Iowa State
6 but the fact that for the
first time this season Ne
braska, after several false
starts, showed a cohesive,
well-managed running and
passing attack.
Also gratifying was the
knowledge that the Huskers
could be counted on to make
the PAT, a phase of the game
in which their failure was
patent last season.
And perhaps most satisfy
ing to the Memorial stadium
crowd was the sheer, unpar
alleled courage of the Husk
ers courage personified by
John Fonsiego, leading sev
eral gang-l a c k 1 e s as NU
stopped three determined I
State thrusts in the first half;
by Don Fricke, leaping
through the Cyclone line to
smother the losers' extra
point try; and by Max Martz
and Clay White, hauling
down high-stepping Cyclone
Chuck Lamson just when he
seemed about to break the
game wide open with another j
touchdown.
That vengeful, hit-'em-again
spirit that won the contest for
the Huskers grew from a bed
of glowing embers at game
time to a roaring flame by
the fourth quarter. It had to
be fanned by the whooping
and hollering of Asst. Coach
Don Strasheim and by the
humiliation of being com
pletely dominated by a small
er, but smooth-running, Iowa;
State club throughout the first
half.
The Huskers came back
snarling and impatient after
intermission. They lost out on
the first exchange of punts,
however, giving the Cyclones
the only scoring opportunity
they were able to use. Mid
way through the third period,
1-State bucked ahead 6-0.

block the PAT. Larry Navi-
aux returned the kickoff to
the Nebraska 36. Penalties I
stalled the Husker offense, as j
they had throughout the first
half, so George Harshman
punted to the I-State five. i
Iowa State tailback Chuck
Lamson slid through the NU
secondary and raced down
field for what looked like a
sure touchdown. But as shud
dering Nebraska fans
watched open-mouthed, two
Huskers Martz and White
flew through the air and de
railed the Cyclone on the NU
20. With the help of a holding
penalty against I-State, the
resurgent Scarlet, led by Guy
Sapp, then shoved the Cy
clones back nearly 40 yards
in the next four plays.
Finally, in the fourth pe
riod, the Nebraska offense be
gan to roll. The Husker line
cleared the way for Naviaux
and Pat Fischer, who charged
through the weakening ISC
ranks for 46 yards in seven
running plays.
Then, from the I-State 22,
Harshman spiraled a perfect
TD pass to Roland McDole,
and pandemonium engulfed
the stadium.
Moments later, Harshman,
whose last-minute field goal

years ago, sent a wobbling
but well-aimed place ick
through the uprights to sew
up the Huskers' first confer
ence decision.
Joe Gacusana, Duane Mon
gerson, Dick Rosier, and oth
er heroes of that final drive
staggered off the field com
pletely exhausted. Fischer, al
though only shaken up, re
quired immediate attention,
for he had just recovered
from the flu. The spunky
halfback, who spent last
weekend in the Student
Health center, led the Husker
backfield with 49 yards in 12
rushes.
"How ya feelin, Chubby?"
Gacusana kidded 163-pound
Fischer as they both col
lapsed on the bench.
When it was all over, Coach
Bill Jennings passed up a
shoulder-ride to the dressing
room to meet I-State's Clay
Stapleton at midfield. They
shook hands amid a throng of
grade school kids seeking
Husker autographs, and Sta
pleton was so good-natured in
defeat that it was difficult for
a moment to tell who was
the winner.
"It was a tough gante," a
tired, relieved Jennings said
later in the fieldhouse. "We
had a good team effort, and
some fine individual perform

signal calling was terrific.

IM 'Star of Week'
Wally Bryans of Sigma Al

ceive the Daily Nebraskan's
intramural Star of the Week
award.
Wally pitched three touch
down passes to fire his team
in a 22-12 comeback victory
over Phi Gamma Delta last
Friday. He has t h r o w n 13
scoring passes in four games,
as he led SAE to the 3-A

backed the Eagles to second

tended into basketball and
baseball. He was start

that tied for the Intercity bas

The team was upset in dis

in third fce in final state

In the Spring Wally added
a couple more letters in base

school career with six varsity
numerals to his name.
This won't be the first
"Star of the Week" award the

Wally Comments
When asked to comment on
his selection as "Star of the
Week." Wally shyly retorted,
"I have six other guys help
ing me who are pretty good."
When he says "pretty
good" he means It. Four of
his teammates gained all
state honors In their respec
tive high schools. Jerry
Trimble was twice chosen to
the California dream team.
Bob Beach was a South Dako
ta all-stater at Mitchell, and
Art Dewey of N o r f o 1 k, and
Bob Thompson of North
Platte were both selected to
the Cornhusker state's prep
team in their day.
Wally was nominated for
the award by his teammates

Smiling, jubilant Harshman
was asked how he felt before

"Boy, I've never been so
