the ball to Bill Mueller in the flat.
Mueller tossed the ball downfield
to Bob Schneider, who was stand
ing in the end zone. The clock had
run out while the play was going
on. Bobby Costello's extra point
try was good.
Nebraska lost the toss and kicked
off to the Uclan's whose first of
fensive try fizzled on the Nebras
ka 37. Nebraska took over on their
own 40 after Gerry Ferguson ran
the kick-off back. The Scarlet
looked for a while like they were
going places in the first quarter.
They traveled to the 23-yard
line of UCLA after Gerry Fergu
son completed a pass to Ralph
Damkroger. Damkroger almost got
away but Don Hunt caught him
by the shirt and pulled him down.
The Huskers muffed another scor
ing chance in the first period
when they drove to the UCLA '21
before bogging down.
C( ach Potsy Clark's squad
stopped the Bruins in the first
quarter and the Uclans made few
gains. The Huskers were driving
every minute and it looked like
they were going to come through
in their role as favorites. It was
the first time they had been fav
ored since the Iowa Stale game.
Nebraska had possession of the
ball as the first quarter ended.
Coining back in the second quar
ter Bill Mueller carried around
end and was thrown for a two
yard loss. Phil Young returned
the ball to the line of scrimmage
on the next play. Kenny Fischer
attempted to pass but had little
blo.-king, so the halfback raced to
the UCLA 34-yard line just short
of a first down.
Bill Clements caught a pass
from Ray Nagel and carried it to
the Nebraska 31. Willis Duffy
cracked the Husker line for two
yards, and on the next play he
went to the 12-yard line and a
first down. Three plays later
Howard Hansen tried the center
of the Nebraska line and managed
to gain to the N.U. six-yard line.
With fourth down and four yards
to go, Ray Nagcl flipped a pass to
Willis Duffy lor a Bruin touch
down. Nagel was virtually trapped
by Nebraska players when he
threw the ball. His kick was good
to give UCLA a 7-0 half time lead.
Coming lick in the final half
the Cornhusker defense collapsed.
Junior Collopy took the kiekoff
on the 21 yard line and carried
to the 35. Ferguson passed to Bill
Mueller but it was incomplete.
Gerry took the ball from center
but fumbled and George Pastre
recovered the ball on the Ne
braska 34. Howard Hansen car
ried to the 21. UCLA was offside
and drew a five yard penalty but
that didn't seem to bother the
Bruins as Ray Nagel dropped
back and passed to Don Hunt for
paydirt.
The Huskers were once more
letting the opponent infiltrate be
hind their defensive formation.

HUSKERS run interference for
through Uclan line
Nebraska's pass defense had once
moVe proved a sad failure. The
stubby Husker backs just weren't
long enough to knock down the
aerials pegged by Nagel and they
weren't smart enough to stop the
Bruin offense from getting behind
them.
Nagel was the Bruin offensive
sparkplug completing eight of 12
passes. The fleet 170 pound quar
terback tossed for three touch
down passes and aided in the
fourth.
Once more Nebraska was on
the winning side of the statistic
column, but statistics do not win
ball games at least not this
year. The Huskers rolled up 15
first downs to UCLA's eight and
gained a total of 340 yards to the
Bruins 279. Clark's squad com
pleted 12 to 32 while Nagel and
company completed nine cf IS.
Kenny Fischer and Dick l?ut-
ton stood out in the Cornhusker
backfield. Both player's had their
hands in the late scoring rush.
Charlie Toogood and Bobby Cos
lello sparked the line play.
Nebraska had a very hard time
getting started. The Scarlet team
started out like a flame which
might have grown into a bonfire
but instead barely flickered until
the finals moments of the last
quarter when it was too late.

country run held in conjunction
with the Turkey Race was won

byterians. Duane Deitering of the New
man Club finished second and

terian was third.
Team honors went to the
Methpdists with 81 points; New
man Club second with 58; Pres
byterians third with 38, and
Christians fourth with 33 points.
Presbyterians, fielding a three
man squad, missed a good chance
for the team championship be
cause of a lack of scoring depth.
