Last Period TDs Turn Lions To Putty Tats
by Randall Lambert
sports Editor
George Harshman, Carroll
Zaruba, and Pat Fischer col
laborated to lead Nebraska to
a 14-? upset over -he Penn
State Nittany Lions. As 25,000
unbelieving fans sat spell
bound, the undersized Husk
ers pushed across two last
quarter touchdowns to erase
an early 7-0 fourth quarter
Lion lead.
The last quarter action was
a fitting climax to three quar
ters of football which saw the
Huskers repell Penn Staters
time again with the talented
kicking toes of Harshman,
Harry Tolly, and Pat Fischer.
The Huskers averaged 45.0
yards per punt while the Nit
tany Lions could only get 34.1
yards a kick.
Fischer Sparkles
Fischer provided the win
ning spark when he sprinted
92 yards for the first Nebras
ka score with 1:07 gone in the
fourth quarter. This was only
12 seconds after Penn State
had opened the period with
their first and only score of
the game. Fischer retrieved
sophomore Sam Stellatella's
kick off on the eight yard
line, ran ten yards up t h e
middle, suddenly side-stepped
Lion Andy Stynchula while
veering towards the sidelines
almost being forced out on the
forty. He tight-rope walked
the next 20 and finally burst
Into the clear on the Penn
State 40 with Don Jonas and
Dick Hoak at his heels. While
the stands and the press box
went wild the little ex-West-side
athlete scampered the
last 40 while Jonas and Hoak
followed with no avail.
With the pressure mounting
George Harshman, showing
no emotion, kicked the im
portant extra point to knot
the game at 7-7.
Harshman kicked off to
Hoak who ran back the ball
from his own 8 to the State

30. It was in this series of
downs that the Huskers
forced the break in the Lion's
dam that eventually decided
the game. After Penn State
had alternately hit the mid'
die ana tne ends for seven
plays, Dave Kasperian, the
Lion backfield star, was hit
on the Nebraska 49 by Dick
Kosier and fumbled into the
hands of Joe Gacu.sana
Fischer hit the left end, but
could only manage a yard. On
the next play quarterback
George Harshman took the
ball off the split-T, slid down
the line to the left and pitched
the ball to Larry Naviaux
who streaked down the side
lines, leaping over one play
er, and almost breaking free
before being called out-of-bounds
on the Penn State 23.
Harshman-Eager Set TD
After Penn State called
time out and tried to gain
their composure, Pat Fischer
faded back to pass, but when
he couldn't find a receiver,
he tucked the ball away and
ran for nine yards. However
this was nullified by a 15
yard holding penalty which
sent the ball back to the 29.
On the next play Harshman
faked a hand-off into the line
and passed to Mike Eger for
the first down on the State
four-yard line.
Zaruba Scores Clincher
After three plays which
netted a total of three yards,
Carroll Zaruba, who had been
playing brilliant offensive and
defensive football, piled over
a tangle of players ending up
on his back in the end zone
with the winning marker.
Again it was George Harsh
man who put the finishing
touch to things when he split
the uprights for the extra
point and the end of the scor
ing for the afternoon.
The upset was becoming a
reality to Nebraska followers, j
However, Penn State was
not to be denied yet. Fran
Paolone ran the Nebraska
kick off back to the Husker
49 yard line. From t h e n on
Nebraska fans held their
breaths. The Nittany Lions
ripped through the Husker de
fenses down to the Nebraska
26. With third down and one
yard to go, quarterback Al
Jacks faded back and spotted
his . big nghtend Maury
Schleicher (6-3, 204) open on
the Husker goal line. While
Nebraska fans and sideline
players alike stood aghast,
Schleicher felt the ball trickle
through his fingers and saw
it fall incomplete to the turf.
Still the Lion wasn't dead
because on the next play Pat
Botula, the big fullback who
had rammed into the Husker
line again and again, picked
up the first down.
Inspired by their success
through the middle, the
Slaters continued to send

It was then the unheralded
Husker line led by D e n n i s
Emanuel and previously in

to the air lanes where they
had been fairly successful.
With two downs left Al Jacks

ball to the Nebraska 29, where
Jacks again rained the air

Purdue Next
Next week Nebraska will
seek out a bigger team in the
person of the Purdue Boilermakers.
From The Outside
by randall lambert
If Nebraskans think Penn
State was big then wait until
they see the size of the Pur
due Boilermakers. They are
bigger and also faster.
Big Tackles
Evidence of this is the size
of the Purdue tackles. Nick
Mumley, who is being
groomed as an All-American,
is the little one at 240, while
the other rile of the line is
anchored by 248 pound Gene
Selawski. The two are sup
posed to be the best tackle
corps in the Big Ten. "I guess
Mumley looks like a bull ele
phant running through a tribe
of pigmies when he carries
the ball on an end around
tackle eligible play.
There are also others re
turning from last year's
comeback team which non
five of their last six games,
including a 20-13 win over
Michigan State. Two quarter
backs, Bob Spoo and Ross
Fichtner, return along with
Tom Frankhausen, an end,
who was fifth in pass catch
ing in the conference. Anoth
er lineman to be careful of
is Fred Brandel, 210 pound
guard, who was named line
man of the week after the
Michigan State encounter.

from their quarterbacks and
an excellent runner in Dave
Kasperian. However, their
line and overall team speed
seemed to leave a little to be
desired.
At the half, I had a chance
to talk to the sports editor
of the Penn State student pa
per. He had ridden out on the
plane with the players and
from what he said, I was left
with the impression that they
didn't know what to expect
from the Huskers and that he
was especially impressed by
the Nebraska first half.
Next week Purdue will be
(he foe, only they won't be
in the dark as much as Penn
State. They Mill be looking
forward to meeting a good
ball team in Nebraska, which
they will.
However, I hope that Pur
due after being idle this Sat
urday will be looking forward
several weeks to engage
ments with Michigan State
and Wisconsin, their rivals
following Nebraska and two
of the teams they are sup
posed to battle for the Big
Ten championship.
