Mondoy, November 17, 1952 THE DAILY NEBRA5KAN Poga 3 iirs Woim KF1 inn)o (io)hi(i UN Glenn Nelson Pass Play By AW, AW Spalls Flie Difference From The Sidelines Although the Cornhuskers missed several scoring opportune ies during their 18-7 loss to Minnesota Saturday before 40,000 home coming fans, they were spasmodically superior in their showing gainst mo lavuiTO vjupners. Had their passing attack been up to par, the Huskers could easily have had the ball in their control during most cf the game, and probably capitalized with touchdowns on several occasions. The Gohpers' aerial assault however, was the deciding factor in the game. Led by their triple threat star halfback Paul Giel, they completed six of 18 pass attempts for a 166-yard total, as compared to Nebraska's completion of none for eight tries. Giel's running and passing sparked the of fensive attack of Wes Fesler's charges while safety Bob McNamara and linebacker Gerald Helgeson led the Gopher, defensive corps. McNamara, who played offensive end as well as safetv. was the big cog in the win. Time after time when it looked like a Husker back might go all the way, McNamara would be there to stop him. Nebraska's highly-rated defensive platoon train looked sharp, folding the Mtnnesotans to only 157 yards by rushing. The entire Nebraska defensive forward wall put up a meted resistance to the tricky Gopher attack, which utilised a number of different formations. 1 M i Nelson 12 i it 4 twit v. a 11 ft if t a Sophomore right halfback Dennis Korinek was the most consis tent Nebraska ground-gainer. John Bordogna, Bob Reynolds. Ray Novak and George Cifia all did some fine running at various times, but it was hard-driving Korinek who kept the GoDher seormrirv busy all afternoon. Jerry Yeager, who started at defensive right I end in place of ineligible Dennis Emanuel, was commended by Coach I Bill Glassford after the game for his rugged play. The Hnsker ground attack was far superior to that ef the Golden Gophers. Nebraska picked up all of Its 16 first downs a the ground, while only eicht of the IS MTJ first downs were Made by rushing. Husker backs chalked up 321 yards to Minne sota's 157 on running plays. Minnesota's first touchdown, which came on the first piay from scrimmage after Reynolds' score and conversion put the Huskers in front, 7-0, was definitely the eutstandine rlav of the riav c:m passed the ball from his own 24 yard line to Jim Soltau on the Ne-jfine team" Thfit 'as the state braska 30, who raced the distance. It was a 74-yard scoring play for ment made by the personable me vxopners. Husker hopes for a win In their finale at Norman, Okla. this Saturday are all bnt bright. The Sooner smashed Missouri's title hopes, 47-7 Saturday. The Tigers were previously unbeaten in Big Seven play, while Oklahoma had tied with Colorado. Oklahoma will oe gunning for its fifth straight conference win fhis week end, and only a miracle will prevent them from winning the flag. A Missouri win over Kansas while the Huskers upset the Soon er is the only possibility.

That was the opinion of nearly ( forty thousand fans Saturday as' they left Memorial Stadium after watching Wes Fesler's young, but nigged Minnesota trim the equally rugged Nebraska Corn 'tuskers 13-7. The center of all the conver sation was Faul Giel, Junior tailback on the pawerful Gopher single-wing. Mr. Giel's running was the weapon that hurt Bill Glassford's proteges most. With 12:20 cone in the third luarter the hard-running Giel cut ff-tackle for two yards ana a Minnesota touchdown. The go ahead play came on fourth down and climaxed a 60-yard drive. During the Gopher march the boy from Winona ran for 34 yards and passed for 23.

T h Cornhusker touchdown march started when Charlie Vic Janowici ( All-American last ful afternoon. year for Ohio State) and Giel were the greatest players he has coached. According to Fesler, the Injury I to Mike Sullivan hurt the ciph ers' chances for a win in their Wisconsin next Saturday.

Gene CappeUetti then split the uprights to deadlock the game at 7-7. That's the way It went until Giel tallied in the third quarter. Neither team could muster a serious scoring threat in the open ing quarter although on one play the Cornhuskers came close to having a touchdown. With first down on the Si Bordogna pitched a beautiful pass far down the field to Emit Radik, Hnsker right end. But Bob McNamara, the Gophers fine safety and offensive end leaped with Radik and won the battle for the ball. The Inter ception came on the Minnesota eight-yard line. Prior to the Cornhusker score in the second quarter the Gophers got as close as the Husker 24 yard line, but there the Minnesota bid ended when Giel tailed to find the mark with two passes. Iligbt before the Intermisstoa the Golden Gophers looked like they might go all the way again. With the ball on their 46, Giel shot a pass to end Bob Rntford who fought downfield to the Nebraska 1. However, wttl time for one more play, Giel fumbled. After CappeUetti kicked off to start the second half, it looked like the Cornhuskers would go places, On the first play from scrimmage, Reynolds, scampered 1$ yards to the Husker 46 only to fumble.
