Page 6 The Daily Nebraskan Friday, October 28, 1966; Where the Action Is By LARRY ECKHOLT Although the Missouri-Nebraska football game is called a "regional" broadcast by ABC-TV, the game will be aired in 34 states, including all of Nebraska. Since the first of the year, when the contracts were signed with ABC-TV, the NCAA and the Nebraska Board of Regents, preparations have been made for the game. But this week, the action moved into high gear, with the ABC technicians and production personnel in Lincoln lay ing the groundwork and the rest of the television people in town today to finish the work. There will be seven cameras televising the game with the pick-up station in Hollywood. One of the cameras will be atop a 150 foot crane located in the south end of the stadium. The game will be televised in full "living" color and both teams have promised to add "live" action. And with respect to both teams, I doubt if the action could be anything but live. Announcers for the game will be Chris Schenkel, Bill ' Fleming and Bud Wilkinson. Preparation for a televised football game includes more than just setting up the equipment. All of the mu sic (to be played at half-time by the two bands) had to be cleared through the various publishing houses be fore permission was given to play. This summer a team of technicians inspected Mem orial Stadium to insure that Nebraska's facilities were adequate. They were. A film-clip on the University of Nebraska covering the academic and cultural side of the school had to be sup plied for the pre-game show. And last week an ABC pho tographer was in Lincoln to shoot Larry Wachholtz, on film that is. A special show on "The Little Man in Col lege Football" will also be featured on the network pre game show. : All of this (and much more behind the scenes) pre cedes a college football game to be televised. Keep in mind that ABC broadcasts four games a week and you'll probably wonder, like I do, how a game ever makes it into your living room. Those poor Coloradoans are still lamenting their loss to the Huskers and among most poignant is the verse of Count Casotti, better known as Fred Casotti, the CU Sports Information Director: (with apologies to Eliza Doolittle) We're getting buried in the morning, Bing, bong, the Buffs can't make a dime, We came so close, though But all we got was place-show, , 'Cause we didn't get to the Churchich on time. : ,, (with apologies to Roger Miller) You can't roller skate through my Buffalo herd. But you can move through the air like a big red bird. OSU and Nebraska will back up my word And I think I'm gonna kill myself tomorrow. One Big Red just left us, Another's on the way No wonder us poor Buffaloes Are all chipped up today. One last thing Since predictions are is line this year, I'm going to try my first. Nebraska has had its ups and downs, but when things have been really down, the Huskers have come up. My feelings are that Nebraska as a team jelled in the first half of the Colorado game and came out on the fierce Folsom Field to win in the second half. Ne braska, tip to now, has played to the ability of the other team. They've won them all, but lacked a certain touch of polish. That changed in the second half of the CU game. So, Missouri has had its season marred by a tie with Iowa State, the same team that nearly did the same to Nebraska, but the Huskers had the right play to win it Nebraska is being scouted by two bowls this week the Orange and the Sugar. The game is being televised. The game is at home, with 60,000 of the 65,000 wearing red. I see it NEBRASKA 27, MISSOURI 17. v - rv ft -v ) ; .

His interior work is act ually on the inside of the Husker line and his decora tion comes on the statis tics sheets of the leading NU linemen. The hulking Husker, who hopes to play pro ball after graduation, leads Nebras ka in unassisted tackles and is now third in the as sisted category. Stith has 32 unaided take downs to his credit and ranks behind AU-American candidate Wayne Meylan and Lynn Senkbeil with 25 assisted ones. Card's rush on defense has also netted NU two re covered fumbles, a blocked punt and a blocked pass so far this year. Stith, a 1963 graduate of Lincoln Southeast High, thinks that the time he has spent on Cornhusker foot ball is well worth it. "It's given me a lot of personal satisfaction," he explained. "It's helped me through school and it's helped me get an educa tion." Carel is in business ad ministration, but said he would like to play pro ball after graduation. About Bob Devaney's Big Eight football dynasty, Stith says, "It's pretty darn miraculous." "It should continue for two or three years," he added referring to league domination. Stitii was quick to add that the Cornhuskers would remain in contention for the conference crown for years after that. His opinion of the cause of NU's success? "The coaching staff. I think they're about the best coaches in tht nation." S a t u r d a y's intramu ral football games will be gin at 9:30 a.m. instead of 10:00 a.m. because of the early start of the Nebraska-Missouri game.

By Bob Flasnick Sports Editor Two top Big Eight teams and two of the nations' most successful coaches will encamp in Nebraska's Memorial Stadium Satur day in what has to be called the big conference game of the week. The Missouri Tigers, 2-0-1 in conference competion, 1) He said the only new kink in the Husker offense against Colorado, following a much publicized secret practice session prior to the game with the Buffaloes, was to set the fullback in motion from Nebraska's spread formation. Devaney called the year ly tangle with the Tigers, "one of our most intense rivalries. Missouri's a tough competeter each year." He pointed out that the differ ence between the Huskers and Missouri in the four years he's been at Nebras ka is three points in Ne braska's favor. Devaney said he expects the Tigers to be similar to I Colorado; a tough defense and more prone to the run- ning game offensively. f I ThA Tl'tTAre Qr a t - -o " Mi oduuu IU i Nebraska in Big Eight to-!i tal defense, limiting six I foes to 252 yards a game l compared to the Huskers' t 238.5.
