Cornhusker Scoring Machine Afefs lVn;
Jenning's Defense Team Sam Game
By DEL RASMUSSEN
Sports Staff Writer
The University of Nebraska
Cornhuskers, after losing two hu
miliating games in as many
starts of the 1957 football season,
finally found there own last Sat
urday in Manhattan, Kansas and
entered into the win column in
the Big Eight standing by rolling
over Kansas State 14-7.
A defensive team showing of the
Huskers, comparable to the migh
ty Huskers of old, that held the
Wildcats three times inside the
four yard line proved the Huskers
might under the tutelage of able
Head Coach Bill. Jennings.
The Scarlet ripped off its first
touchdown when Dick Corbin, Kan
sas S t 8 t e's quarterback, was
was rushed back to his own 15
yard line and threw the ball wild
ly which landed in the arms of
Charlie Smith who was making
his varsity debut as a Cornhusker
quarterback. Charlie pirated the
aerial on the K-State 30 and raced
15 yards for the Husker squad and
on the third play after Smith's
thievery Fullback George C i f r a
bowled his way through a host of
Kansas State tacklers for 10 yards
and the first Nebraska touchdown.
Dick Prusia kicked the extra
point to give the Cornhusker team
a 7-0 advantage at the end of the
second chapter of the ball game.
The third period of the game
brought new life into the Wildcats,
when, after many dismal aerial
they finally connected on one to
match the Huskers' scoring. With
a fourth down and 17 to go on the
Husker's 33, Quarterback Dick Cor
bin hit Halfback Keith Wilson who
had slipped past Doug Thomas, Wil
son grabbed the ball on the 11 yard
line of Nebraska and dashed into
the Scarlet's end zone for a quick
Wildcat' one yard line where Wildcats in front of the Huskers
srjeedv Bennie Dillard was invited I n vy column except in the in
k o,rtWk Harrv Tollv to W tercepted passes, punting and fum
the pigskin over for the honors.
As the whole Kansas State line
rushed to the middle of the line
to stop oncoming George Cifra,
Harry Tolly keenly slipped the
ball into the arms of Dillard on
the three yard line. Benny sliced
into the corner for the six and
the Huskers were never again be
hind or tied for the duration of
the game.
With the Cornhuskers on top 14-7

it was the Wildcats turn to move
the ball which they did to the
four yard line. Four times the
Nebraska line held inside their own
four with only a one touchdown
edge over the opponents. The
"cats" moved the pigskin to the
Husker four and for the next four
plays only netted a total of two
yards. Doug Thomas squelched a
bid coming around the left end and
Bill Hawkins flattened the rush
around the right end on the very
next play.
From there the Scarlet took over
the ball and punted it out of dan
ger but the Wildcats came roaring
back to again threaten the Ne
braska lead, but a fumble and a
Nebraska recovery set the ball
once again in the hands 01 tne
Jennings crew. The Huskers then
started another bid for a touch
down before the game ended and
then did drive the Wildcats back

play with the Jennings crew.
The Scarlet roared back, how
ever, to regain the lead and lost
no time in doing so. Doug Thom
as roared the kickoff back to the
centerfield stripe where Sandage
and Jerry Brown took over the
ball lugging
chores. Brown

in front of him Jennings
to the 22 yard line. A few plays
later showed the Huskers on the
bles lost columns. The final score
did not promise any Orange Bowl
trips to the Huskers but it did
provide a winning spirit which pre-
valed in the dressing room after
the game.
Gene Sandage provided Nebras
ka with the highest rushing aver
age of 4.3. Gene carried the ball
11 times and covered 48 yards
in his 11 tries. Cifra followed
Sandage with a 4.1 carrying aver
age in 25 yards earned in six at
tempts. The Husker punting was another
factor figuring in the Scarlet win.
Jerry Brown quick-kicked 56 yards
to the Kansas 18 yard line. In six
efforts Harry Tolly had a 41.8
average while Roy Stinnett punted
the ball a commendable 41 yards.
Although the Nebraska team
looked like a much improved team
in comparison with their first two
outings Coach Bill Jennings would
not promise anything.
Smiling for the first time this
fall, Bill commented after the final
gun:
"Our boys fought hard. That is
what we asked them to do and
they did it."
"They won this for themselves."
There were four players on the
injured list who failed to see
any action in the Kansas State
game, three halfbacks and an end.
These were Halfbacks Carroll
Zaruba, left at home; Larry Na
viaux and Leo George, who made
the trip, and end Marlin Hilding,
also in the party.
Injured Jerry Wheeler entered
the game only on one play, the
kick-off alter the second Nebraska i
touchdown.
The halfback situation was so
critical that Gene Sandage, a key
figure in the Scarlet triumph, was
forced to remain in the game all
but four plays.

Mathews7 Blast Evens
Series At Two Aoiece
Py BOB WIRZ
Staff Writer
A dramatic two run homer in
the tenth inning by Ed Mathews
gave the Milwaukee Braves their
second World Series win Sunday.
The blow climaxed the fourth
game of the series and evened it
up at two games for each of the
two clubs.
The hard hitting third baseman,
Mathews, had only one previous
hit in the series and that was a
key double earlier in the game.
His long blast scored Johnny Lo
gan ahead of himself and the
Brave's fans went wild. They had
seen their home town favorites
come from behind for a 7-5 win
over the New York Yankees.
Pinch hitter Nippy Jones started
the rally when he was nicked by
a Tommy Byrne curve ball. Then
Felix Mantilla ran for Jones and
Bob Grim came to the mound for
the Yankees. Red Schoendien5.t
sacrificed and Logan plated Man
tilla with his game tying doubls
to set up the dramatic blow.
The Yankees had taken a tem
porary lead in the top half of the
tenth inning when Hank Bauer
tripled home Tony Kubek with two
! out. But, the real cause for the
1 extra frame came one inning ear
I lier when Elson Howard of ths
Bombers homered with two mates

Sooners Win
42nd Straight;
Drop IS 40-14
The convalescing 0 k 1 a h o m a
Sooners won their 42nd consecu
tive football game Saturday as
they downed the rejuvenated Iowa
State Cyclones 40-14.
The game was a moral victory
for the Cyclones since it marked
the first time since 1951 that they
have scored on Oklahoma.
Both Iowa State touchdowns
were on passes by halfback Dwight
Nichols. In the second quarter,
with OU leading 19-0, Nichols
pitched to Gale Gibson for yards
and a score. The second score
came minutes before the final gun
when Nichols hit Brian Dennis with
a nine yard aerial.
Quarterback Carl Dodd scored
two of Oklahoma's six touchdown,
while Clendon Thomas, David Bak
er, Jakie Sandefer and Boh by
Boyd each added one a piece.
Hard running Pete Goeser, third
string halfback, stepped Into the
limelight to carry 20 times for 63
yards to spark Iowa State's
offense. Thomas was top rusher
for Oklahoma with 61 yards.'
Using a single wing, which it
witched to thU year, Iowa State
kept close to Oklahoma on statis
tics and even held an edge at the
half. It wasn't until almost 13 min
utes were gone in the third quarter
that Oklahoma showed its offen
sive power with the alternate team
driving 59 yards for a score.

Howard was the only man that
stood between Warren Spahn and
a brilliant 4-1 pitching perform
ance. This rally also started for
the Yankees with two outs.
Spahn was brilliant from the
first inning on until the ninth giv
ing up but four hits and no runs
in that time.
The New Yorkers took a 1-0
lead in the first inning but the
S p a h n-Tom Sturdivant pitching
duel was broken up in the fourth
when the big Brave bats began to
boom.
Sturdivant walked Loiian to start
the uprising and then Mathews
doubled. This brought up Hank
Aaron, the Milwaukee star center
fielder, and he promptly unleashed
a three run blast over the left
field fence. Sturdivant got on?
more out and Frank Torre added
another marker. This iookd suffi
cient for Spahn until Howard's
long drive.
