The contest produced a total rushing yardage of 588 yards. The lines opened mamouth holes on of fense and leaked profusely on de fense. The difference in the game was the running of Nebraska half back's Rex Fischer end Willie Greenlaw. This duo combined to tarry the ball 46 out of the 76 times the 6ig Red controlled the ball. They also accounted for 256 of the 338 yards the Cornhuskers gained Saturday afternoon. Nebraska kept the ball on the ground most of the game and showed they could control the foot ball. They scored the first time they got their hands on the ball. The Jayhawks immediately marched 42 yards to go ahead 7-6. But that was the last time Kansas ever - saw the lead. The Corn huskers marched back and went ahead 12-7 when Fischer swept right end for 14 yards and a touch down. In the third quarter the Huskers inarched 67 yards to score. Kan sas bounced back in the fourth per iod to press 14-19. With a little more than two minutes left the Kansans forced Don Erway into the wind. to m Play: GridTowney Underway By ED KEMBLE Intramural Editor, The intramural All-University touch football tournament got un derway this week, following last weekend's final games in regular league play.

The Cornhusker freshmen got off to an early lead as Gary Johnson, six-man graduate from Madrid in tercepted a Cyclone pass on his 7 yard line and raeed-68 yards only-j to be stopped on the Iowa State eleven. Quarterback Eddie Corazzi who played the entire game went the final three yards on a plunge and Rich King made the first of his two conversions. Iowa State tied the game up in the second period when-Bob Davis ran 31 yards to score and O'Neil pdnverted. The young Huskers came back full of spirit and fight in the sec ond half and after an exchange of fumbles Bennie Dillard, Texas speedster broke loose on a 79 yard gallop to pay dirt. Dillard received a couple of good blocks and then outraced the visitors. King , again converted. Iowa State returned the kickoff to their 31 yard line and on the first play went to the Husker seven on a pass from Terry Ingram to Bob Harden, former Omaha Ben son star, before he was caught from behind by DillarA Ingram squeezed across by inches on fourth down after the Husker freshman had thrown up a tight defense. O'Neil converted and the game was tied again and remained this way until the deciding field goal. Why Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., reads The Reader's Digest ; t Jt O .

From Tho Pressbox- ; The FB Team Without A Coach By BRUCE BRUGMANN I think it's about time somebody rave BiU Gtassford a cat on the back. You may not like the "man . . , you may never agree with him you might not believe in his way of coaching football ... but you must admit one thing: All things considered, our football coach is doing a pretty good job this season. Crippled by graduation, ineligibility and constant injuries to W players, Glassfbrd has nevertheless fielded one of the gamest, most spiraea squaas in HusKer tootoau history. , All through the season thus far. Glassford has received criticism from fans, students, businessmen and, for want of a better word, the sportswriters. Now tnat the Huskers can bask once again in the sunlight, everyone praises the fighting spirit of the team, the seady improvement of the backfield, the drive and determination of the line. But one factor, one important factor, is missing. Everyone, and most noticeably the sportswriters, seems to be very careful not' to mention Glassford and his staff's part in molding this team. Gregg McBride, sportswriter for the World Herald, spent a whole column talking about the "gameness" of the '55 Huskers. Only mention of Glassford was that he was forced "each week to dig deep into the barrel." Wally Provost, sports editor of Hie Herald, has commented that the Huskers "might be playing for the conference championship Nov. 19 . . ." No mention of Glassford's part in such a splendid finish. And then, of course, there's the Bobbsey twins, plodding dully along in the same old rut. With these roly poly, unimaginative buf foons, it's still the same record: if the Huskers lose, they play "Good bye, Bill." If the Huskers win, they flip the record and start talking about team spirit. But it is rather painfully obvious and quite unfair to praise the team and completely ignore the coach. Especially, when the team supports the coach almost to man. And especially when our coach is doing a pretty darn good job. Yet, this is the case. The simple and ugly truth Is that our sportswriters, either from personal enmities or the editorial stand of their newspapers, will not or cannot comment favorably about Bill Glassford. This is indeed a sad state of affairs for that part of the American way of life which is characterized by the slogan, "It's not whether you won or lost; it's how you played the game." tX By tpfotntnitnt purveyors of soap to th Ute king Georgt VI, Yardlty t Co, ltd.
