Purcell Is Only Sophomore End
On Buskers 22-Man Starting Unit
By Dave Wohlfarth '
Don Purcell is the only
sophomore end in Nebraska's
22-man starting lineup, but in
the first three games, he has
performed like a sea
soned veteran.
Purcell is 19 years old,
stands 6'1", and weighs 220
pounds. In his first Varsity
year, he has earned a place
on Jennings' "22-man team."
Last year the red-haired grid
der played xn the freshman
squad.
Top Thrill
Defeating Minnesota was a
top thrill for Don and
his brilliant performance
helped turn the trick. His
hard rusbi: kept the heat
on Minnesota passers as his
defensive play stood out all
afternoon.
He went through the
Golpher line in the second
quarter and put the pressure
on MU quarterback Sandy
S t e p h e n s. This forced
Stephens to make a bad pass
and Husker Noel Martin in
tercepted it and returned it
to the Minnesota 16. This play
set the stage for Nebraska's
second touchdown which put
the Huskers ahead 13-6.
Comparing Minnesota and
Texas, Don states, "Minneso
ta was bigger and slower, but
hit harder. I would rather
ulav acainst a team like
Texas."
When asked about how Ne
braska will finish in the Big
8, he replied, without hesita
tion, "First." This year's
team has more speed and
depth than last year's and has
a real good attitude. We will
win more than we lose."
Purcell attended Omaha
Benson, where he won three"
letters in football, three in
baseball and two in basket
ball. He was selected as an
All-City and All-State grid
der and received High School

two wins and one loss. Colo
rado is the only Big Eight
team without a victory.
In last week's action, Ne
braska took a 7-6 victory over
Oregon State for their second
successive win of the young
season.
The Huskers used a stub
born defense to hold back the
Beavers and took advantage
of an Oregon State fumble to
score their touchdown. It was
the second consecutive one
point defeat for Oregon State.
Kansas scored their first
win of the season with a 28-7
victory over Boston Univer
sity. The Jayhawks held Bos
ton to a minus seven yards
rushing and gave them only
90 yards through the air.
The Jays scored in every
every touchdown. John Hadl,
who has scoring runs of 97
and 98 yards this season,
scored one of the Td's on a
14-yard run.
Gilbert Wilson scored
twice and Curtis McClinton
added the fourth touchdown.
McClinton's score came as
part of a 49-yard play that
began with a pass from Lee
Flachsbarth to Hadl.
Hadl latcalled the pigskin
Fricke, Olson, Kramer and
Gacusana missed the Oregon
State game. Zaruba and Mar
tin were injured in the Bea
ver game. It was first thought
that Martin had received
some cracked ribs but X-rays
showed no breaks.
Don Purcell, right end, and
halfback Pat Fischer were
also nursing bruises Monday.
Fullbacks
With Martin and Fricke
both on the injured list, that
leaves Bill Bohanan and Bob
Kitchen as the top two full
backs with Dave Roberts and
Jack Conger in reserve.
Bohanan and Kitchen were
both shifted from another po
sition, Bohanan from end and
Kitchen from center. Bohan
an has been listed as an end,
center and fullback already
this fall.
He is a transfer from
Navarre Junior College and
one of the few junior
transfers to make good
braska. Bohanan carried
ball four times against
eon State for a 2.5 yard aver
age. He was also on the re
ceiving end of one pass.
Kitchen is a 6-0, 180-pound-er
from McCook, who was
shifted to fullback only two
days before the Oregon State
game.
Dick Monroe, who scout
ed Kansas, had this to say
about the Jayhawks, "They
have good overall team quick
ness and they have a real
good left halfback in John
Hadl. They are also strong
at the other halfback with
Curtis McClinton."
Sophomores
Both boys are sophomores
and Hadl has touchdown gal
lops of 97 and 98 yards to his
credit against Texas Chris

The Huskers have movies
