THE DAILY NEBRASKA,
The Lineup
Pass Offense Is
Key To Lion Win

Statistics Don't Lie . . .
Statistics don't lie. For justification of this statement you need
only to look at the statistics of the Nebrnska-Penn State go. It was
even-steven as far as first downs were concerned. Each team racked
up 12. However, the Huskers were far superior in their ground game.
They out-rushed the Nittnny Lions 210 yards to 129 yards on the
ground.
But the difference between the two teams lay In their indi
vidual aerial fames. The Huskers completed only three of twelve
attempted passes for a total of 45 yards while
the Tony Rados-Jcsse Arnelle passing combina
tion was clicking for eleven completions In 21
attempts for 102 yards. It was the Rados-Arnelle
combo that scored the only touchdown of the
see-saw contest.
As we pointed out last week, a good pass de-
, fensc is the gaping weakness in the Husker de-
f ' tv fensive alignment and the Lions were quick to
F i take advantage of it. Time and time again the
L , j magnificent Scarlet line held the Penn State
t y fj ground offense for three downs deep in Nebraska
territory. Then when it looked as though the Hus
kers would take over on downs Rados passed
again. The first downs were as easy as that.
This was the story all afternoon. The Husker line Ed Htw
mann, Carl Brassee, Bill Schabacker, Don Boll, Jerry Mlnntck,
Denny Emanuel, Verl Scott, Genrue Gohde, Jim Sommers, Max
Kitzelman played Its best game of the season. They were almost
Impenetrable. But with the Nebraska secondary, it was a different
situation. Tony Rados, the Tenn State pin-point passer, riddled the
Husker pass defense with unending regularity. If Nebraska would
be able to produce a pass defense as strong as Its ground defense,
It could easily be one of the nation's powers.
Reynolds Was Missed ...
We were listening to Saturday s game with a bunch of the fellas
and one remark seemed to creep into the commentary. "This is where
Bob would have carried the ball." One spot we especially remember
was when Nebraska had the ball on the Penn State 23 yard line,
third down and seven to go. This was the place for the well-known
Reynolds romp over the right side between the tackle and the end.
Yes, Bob was missed Saturday.
On The N Club Trophy . . .
Congratulations to the "N" Club for renewing the high school
scholarship trophy. Many high school athletes need such an Incen
tive to spark their academic work. We have one hope, however.
From our contact with high school athletes, we find that they rank
well above the average level of their high schools. Our hope is that
the "N" Club will have both a sufficient supply of funds and tro
phies to award every deserving high school.
High Cost Of Playing . . .
The well-dressed football player, believe it or not, requires
$152.10 worth of equipment to outfit him for his weekly appearance
on the gridiron. From top to bottom his costs are: helmet, $22.70;
jersey, $10.75; T-shirt, $1; shoulder pads, $23.95; numerals, $2.75; hip

Upsets Are King In
Saturday's Contests
Bv BART BROWN
Sports Staff Writer
Oklahoma reigns omnipotent
again in the Big Seven after its
42-20 shellacking of Kansas Uni
versity. The Hawks proved tough
competition for Oklahoma until
midway in the third period when
Oklahoma drove 90 yards for a
touchdown to break a tight 21-20
contest. From then on it was all
Oklahoma as the Sooners scored
two more touchdowns while hold
ing the Kansans scoreless.
Veteran quarterback Earl
Crowder cooly handled the Ok
lahoma offense that rolled for
304 yards on the ground and 181
yards in the air. Tom Catlin, an
all Big 7 center last year, proved
a big factor in wrecking the
Kansas attack as he repeatedly
broke into the Kansas backfield
and threw the Hawks for losses.
Buck McPhail, Oklahoma's
candidate for all-American full
back, was used only sparingly be
cause of a back injury, but Buddy
Leake, Billy Vessels, and Merrill
Green were as powerful a back
field combination as could be
wanted.
Colorado kept its Big 7 hopes
alive by quelling a late Iowa State
rally to win 21-12. The Golden
Buffalos scored three times in the
first half to assume a 21-0 half
time lead, but were outplayed the
second half as Iowa State fought
back to score twice in the final
half.
Kansas State played a great
first half as It led Tulsa's
Golden Hurricanes 7-6, but col
lapsed in the second half as
Tulsa clicked off marches of
61, 70, 92, and 62 yards to win
26-7. The Aggies were playing
without five starters as they
completely dominated play in
the first half.
Carl Albacker culminated a 58
yard Kansas drive at the end, of
10 minutes of the ball game as he
passed to Jim Limes for the open
ing touchdown. Midway in the
second quarter the Aggies were
halted on the Tulsa one-yard line.
Missouri proved to be a team
that just can't win as it went
down in defeat to Oklahoma A&M
14-7. The Tigers have only one
win to their credit this year, and
have four losses in close ball
games.
A&M scored twbe In the first
kalf to assume a 14-0 half-time
lead, then stifled a fine Missouri
pass offense to hold the Tigers
to only one tally in the second
half. Missouri completed only 8
out of 32 passes, but outyarded
the Aggies 182 to 56 in the air.
The Aggies held a slight 185 to
156 advantage on the ground.
Minnesota gained itself a three
way tie for the first place in the
Big 10 as it pulled one of the big
upsets of the year in that confer
ence with a 13-7 win over highly
favored Illinois. The loss was the
second for Illinois this season and
virtually knocked the defending
champions out of the 1952 title
picture.
Minnesota had to come through
with two great goal line stands to
win. They halted Illinois on the Vt
yard line, and on the 11 yard line.
UCLA toppled Stanford from
the undefeated list Saturday as
the passing of their great tailback
Paul Cameron led the Bruins to
a 24-14 win. Cameron passed
three times in the first half for
touchdowns. Stanford scored first
on a pass by Bob Gardett to Bill
Rogers that carried 63 yards. Min
utes later Cameron began heav
ing, and from then on the game
was pretty well decided.
Notre Dame won a fumble in
fested game over Purdue 26-14.
In all 21 bobbles were registered
bv the two clubs. Notre Dame's
J . a t m -r-t
defense proved to xougn ior Pur
due as they consistently halted
Boilermaker drives. Notre Dam.
led 20-7 at the half, and coasted
on In with little trouble over a
dispirited Purdue team.
Fists flew as niaryiana
tromped a fighting Navy team
38-7. Seven players were ejected
from the game for too much
roughness. The Terps roared
through the vaunted Navy de
fense as they piled BP a 24-0
half-time lead. The Navy of
fense had its troubles to as it
only gained 26 yards on tbe
ground.
Rudy Mattioli masterminded a
crisp Pitt offense as the Panthers
blasted Army's hopes of a return
to football glory 22-14. Only in
the final minutes after Pitt had
piled up a 22-0 lead did Army
strike for its too-late touchdowns.
Pitt continued its inspired flay
that up-ended Notre Dame last
week as second string fullback
Paul Chess exploded for two
touchdowns.

Nebraska will enter the Colo
rado fray a decided under-dog
after their 10-0 loss to the Penn
State Nittany Lions.
Colorado eased by Iowa State,
a team that the Huskers beat 16-0,
in an unimpressive, 21-12, scrap.
The Golden Buffaloes sport an
jaually good running or passing
attack headed by tailback Zack
Jordan.
The Cornhusker's line was the
only talking point In their last
Saturday's game. The whole de
fensive line phtyed good ball.
Only the offense fell down.
They moved the ball on drives
of 73 and 81 yards but could not
penetrate past the Lion's 10-yard
stripe.
On the other side of the fence,
Colorado scored 21 points in the
first half and then held off a Cy
clone rally that netted 12 points
and held the Buffaloes scoreless.
The Colorado backfield, with
Jordan, Woody Shelton, Carrol
Hardy and Ronnie Johnson, is
capable of beating any team es
pecially on their home ground
where they held mighty Okla
homa to a 21-21 tie.
Defensively, the Golden Buf
faloes possess linemen Don Branby,
Don Greenwood, Anton Hill and
Tom Urookshire.
Coach Bill Glassford told to the
Quarterback Club Monday that
Jim Yeisley, Don Boll and Jerry
Paulson are on the injured list
and are doubtful starters for the
Boulder frame.
Johnny Bordogna got three teeth
loosened and linebacker Verl Scott
broke his nose, both are expected
to be ready.
Boys that didn't see action
atralnst Penn State scrlmmared
Monday with offensive contact
work on tap Tuesday for the
whole team.
Other action around the confer
ence finds Oklahoma, now almost
a cinch for the title, traveling to
Manhattan to face Kansas State.
The Kansas Jayhawkers meet
the SMU Mustangs at Dallas in
their second meeting against a
Southwest conference foe. They
previously defeated TCU, 13-0.
Iowa State goes to Columbia to
face the Missouri Tigers in the
other league game. Missouri lost
to Oklahoma A. & M. last week,
14-7.

Phi Kappa Psi and Alpha Tau
Omega remain as the top two out
fits in intramural touch-football
in the second of the weekly rat
ings that presents a vastly differ
ent order of rank from the pre
ceding week.
The top-ranked Phi Psi's
romped to their fourth straight
win last week by blasting Theta
Xi, 39-0, and keep their perch
duo to their victory. The Taus,
idle last week, barely hold on at
the number two spot. They are
being hard-pressed by the next
three teams who are in a virtual
tie for third, fourth and fifth.
The Mustangs get the nod for
third place, climbing a peg from
last week. The horses racked up
victories three and four over the
week of action, dropping the
Joken 20-0 and the Rockets
14-0. They are also the only
member of the top-ten with the
exception of newcomer New
man Club sporting an unscored-
on record to date.
Delta Upsilon lumps from sixth
to fourth this week on the
strength of two lop-sided wins.
They thumped Alpha Gamma
Rho 37-6 and throttled Tau Kappa
Epsilon 39-0 to boost their sea
son's mark to 4-0.

Delta Theta before capturing a
7-6 yardage decided victory.
Three newcomers join the select
group this week. Pioneer House,
unbeaten in four starts, gets the
eighth berth while Delta Upsilon
"B" and Newman Club gain the
ninth and tenth spots. Pioneer ran
over Zeta Beta Tau 27-7 and
Cornhusker Co-op 22-0 last week
while the DU Bees smacked Phi
Kappa Psi "B", 18-6, and New
man Club thumped Inter-Varsity
by a 13-0 count. All three are
undefeated.
Phi Delta Theta slips from first
to third this week after splitting
two contests. Both showings hurt
their standing as they edged Sig
ma Chi by a 1-0 score and lost
their first game of the year to
Sigma Phi Epsilon, 0-6.
The Sig Ep victory coupled with
their loss to Alpha Tau Omega by
a 19-18 mark jumps from sev
enth to sixth while the Sig Chi
loss drops them from third to
fifth.
A newcomer, Delta Tau Delta,
gains the frat "B" ratings this
week. After losing their first
two outings, the Delts have
made rapid strides and last
week dumped Sigma Alpha Ep
silon 7-0 and the ATO's, 12-0.
Beta Theta Pi ranks directly
mgs
Ibehind the top-six of the frater
Inity "A" outfits. The Betas
climbed a rung over the week on
the strength of their 22-13 vic
tory over Phi Gamma Delta who
stays on at ninth place despite
the loss.
Two newcomers get the tenth
position jointly this week. Tied for
the number ten spot are Delta
Sigma Phi and Sigma Alpha Mu.
The Delta Sigs are undefeated in
actual play but because of an
aversion to showing up for some
of their games, they arc sporting
a 3-2 record. The Sammies own
i a 2-2 mark and gain the tie for
tenth because of their showing
against sixth-rated Pioneer House.
