Page 4 The Daily Nebraskon Thursday Nov. 14, 1963 Basketball Spotlight n n OevcflirBov Fob Bothers Although Oklahoma State has only a 1-6 record this sea son, Husker Coach Bob De vaney does not feel this is any cause for optimism in the Scarlet camp. "We are concerned with their improvement," the men tor said. "They played a good game against Iowa State, then got their first win last Satur day against Tulsa." The reason for the Cowboys Improvement is the switch to a new "I" formation offense. This offense is employed by Maryland with quarterback Dick Shiner. The "I" forma tion has the halfbacks and full- j back lined up behind the quar terback. Devaney explained that this offense puts considerable pres sure on the pass defenders and the defensive cornermen in covering the man-in-mo-tion. Plays run in the oppo site direction from the man-in-m o t i o n are particularly hard to defend. Using the new offense, O-State has scored 61 points in their last two games. As a result Devaney believes the Cowpokes morale and confi dence and be built up for Sat urday's content. cunm "They played good ball at times against Arkansas and Texas but then a fumble would stop them," the Husker coach said. He noted they have not been giving the ball away as much lately. Nebraska holds a 19 lb. man for man weight advan tage in the line but Devaney counts this as a possible O-State advantage. "We seem to have the most difficulty with teams which have lighter and possibly more agile lineman," com mented Devaney recalling the loss to Air Force.

The 6-14' senior managed to lead Scarlet rebounders with 204 last year and place second in scoring with 291 points to Daryl Petsch. All this, plus the playmaking ability of Jones, makes him an "old-timer" who should fit into Coach Joe Cipriano's new system.

Ja- ed football team, Internation- maica: Joe Luke, Hong Kong; al Football, that is. Under the direction of People To-P e o p 1 e, University stu dents from around the world have wiited to play the origi nal football game, soccer. Under the coaching of La- jos Molnar of Hungary, the Soccer team has won their last seven games of t h e spring and fall season. P.T.P. assumed spon sorship of the soccer team in the spring of 1963. The team has been in existence since 1957, when it was organized by Martin Carraneedo of Mex ico City. Carraneedo' has since returned to Mexi co where he teaches. In its seven years of exist ence the soccer team has changed sponsorship several times. In 1957 it was spon sored by the University, in 1958 by Globe Laundry. Until 1963 when P.T.P. undertook sponsorship the team was helped by private firms. Coach Lajos Molnar re ceived his coaches' "certifi cate" from the University of Hungary. Molnar's playing experience numbers 14 years. He played during high school for a third cjass team and while be attended the Univer sity of Hungary, he played goalie for the University team. He does not play on the P.T.P, team because of an in jury. Other members of the team Include Brhame Kidan, Ethiopia; Jase Louis Prendes, Cuba; Irej Seberi, Iran; Ali Safiee, Iran; Houstang Ras- seth, Iran; Erwin Adderley, Bermuda; Migule Gomez, Honduras; David Alrdizedel, Zeck Barnes and Rick Spell man, New York City and Steve Adams. Coach Molnar says many difficulties arise in schedul ing a game such as this. Many players have part time jobs or are tied down with school work and therefore have a hard time attending practices and games. One other difficulty is the lack of a permanent playing field. Home games are played on the intramnral field on Ag Campus, but this field must be shared by all the intra mural teams. Another prob lem is finding suitable oppo nents since few mid-western colleges have teams. Soccer is played the world over and is by far the most popular sport all over the world. The South American teams at this time dominate the World Championships. Brazil has won the Champion ship the last few years. In one Latin American country the feelings run so high that the referees leave the game bv way of a trap door located on the field to avoid angry fans. athletic grant foor soccer and track. Steve Adams, an American who learned to play soccer in Germany, attended the University of Maryland on a soccer scholarship. The next game is Sunday, November 17 against Union College. The game will be played at the Union College grounds. The last game of the fall season will be November 24 against Creighton Univer sity. Plans are being consid ered for a spring tournament with 4-8 college teams. Entries for the All-University intramural handball tour nament are due by 5 p.m., Tuesday, November 19, at Room 102. Men's Physical Ed u c a t i o n Building. Players may enter both singles and doubles. Games will be scheduled by the players to meet deadline dates according to times the Handball courts in the Colise um area available. Varsity team athletes who are permit ted to use the Field House Handball courts may play their matches there. Two out of three games will constitute a match. Winner of the match will advance in the tournament. Pairings will be posted on the Bulletin Board in the Physical Education Building. A team trophy will be awarded to the All-University champions. The individual champions will receive med als. Handballs may bs checked out without charge at the equipment cages in the Colise um and Physical Education Building. Schedules of matches will be posted November 25th in order that football and base ball men may participate be fore their spring practices begin. Defending All-University champions are the Island ers. Singles champion was Larry Willis of the Islanders, who teamed with Mark Sipple of Islanders for the doubles championship. Last year's fraternity and independent champions are Phi Delta Theta and Dental College. Read Nebraskan Want Ads Rood Awakening- By Mick Rood Sports Editor It is whispered around on campus that Nebraska may get the big scare against Oklahoma State. After that, it is whispered that of course we don't have a chance when Bud Wilkinson's Oklahoma team travels to Lincoln. We all brag loudly about our team, but behind the scenes, pessimism reigns. Why so? This sort of mumbling went on before the Kansas game too. Even after the convincing victory, many felt that Ne braska had won on lucky breaks. Over-confidence is one thing, but "under-confidence" is another. Please consider: The old saying that a good team invariably wins on mistakes.That is precisely how the Huskers beat the Jay hawks they made fewer errors and were able to capitalize on Kansas weak points. Oklahoma is a prime example of winning on mistakes. Nebraska lost to the Sooners last year because they, could capitalize our errors. The other factor, having a good, steady offense to complement ball-hawking abilities, is most evident on the Scarlet squad. Nebraska has the best all-around backfield in the country. Seven Huskers have journeyed over 100 yards so far this season and four of those backs have averaged over five yards a crack. (Rudy Johnson, Willie Ross, Bob Hohn, and Kent McCIoughan) Nebraska has aver aged just under five yards a try as team in the rushing department while opponents have gathered only 2.8 yards a try. OSU boasts a new "I" formation but the Cowboy de fense won't hold Scarlet versatility. After a second quarter scare, NEBRASKA 38, OKLAHOMA STATE-13. For the record, Nebraska outgained the Pokes last year by 397 to 127 total yardage. Passing whiz Mike Miller, who has been the key to Cowboy success of late, was held to 4 ot 12 passes for 31 yards and two interceptions. Both teams have improved; unfortunately for Oklahoma State and hopeful Coach Phil Cutchin. Another whispered comment is finding its way around campus. Apparently, Dennis Claridge isn't playing up to what some think he should. Not quite fair game if you look closely. The hard-luck season Dennis has been having compares to that of Thunder Thornton's last year. Both had troubles with recurring injuries. Both had the dubious distinction of running plays that every team knew they would. Their strengths were major projects of the opposition. Also, Cla ridge has suffered from poor pass protection and fumbling receivers. Fred Duda has discovered these important fazes lacking on many an occasion. Back to Nebraska's football prominence. Many students feel that if the Huskers conceivably tied for the Big Eight lead if Missouri beats the Sooners and Nebraska then lost to Oklahoma that Oklahoma would inevitably go to the Orange Bowl. There would be no question. No, gang, no! Oklahoma may have the tradition of exciting teams behind it, but Nebraska, in the last two years, has proved it has the Sooners beat. No team in the nation, let alone the Big Eight, can boast a better offense. On defense. Ne braska leads "Norman's pride" bv a convincing margin on the ground and by one yard per game for total defense. This is not total proof, but as was said above the Huskers have learned to capitalize on mistakes as well as the Sooners. Nebraska really began their excitine form for all to see in the Gotham Bowl. The crystal football here: Georgia Tech bv one over Alabama; Oklahoma by three over Missouri; SMU in an other surprise over Arkansas; Auburn over Georgia, de spite Rakestraw; Pittsburgh continues success over Army; Kansas on the rebound against Colorado; Navy through the air past Duke; Illinois to lose again by one to Wisconsin; Iowa State bouncing K-State by 20; Michigan State in a romp over miss-firing Notre Dame; Michigan wont upset lowa; Minnesota win fizzle again at Purdu: Northwestern will have a good day finally and whip Ohio State; Southern Cal to edge Oregon State Friday; Rice over Texas A&M: Texas to open up this time by 13 over TCU; UCLA can't even take Washington. In Europe, a noon will find fans watching as Americans Sunday after up to 100,000 a game just turn out full force for their brand of foot ball. .
