way at the early stages,
close. Several Varsity drives
were halted by fumbles or
loss of downs inside the
Alum 20.
Quarterbacks Top Players
The two opposing quarter
backs, who guided their
teams throughout the after

top players. Sam Vacanti
won the outstanding Alumni
player award and Ron Meade
received the nod for the out

then Pat Fischer, drove to
the Alumni six from its own
passes and shifty runs by Pat
Clare and Fischer.
With Meade at the helm,
the Varsity moved 60 yards
in nine plays. Biggest
chunks of Alumni ground
were chewed up by a 14-yard
Meade to Pat Salerno pass,
a five-yard plunge by Thun
der Thornton, a nine-yard
scamper by Warren Powers,
a Meade to Thornton pass
play good for twelve and
Thunder's final two-yard
twist into the end zone.

the Varsity a 7-0 lead with
14:35 left in the half.

from nowhere. Fisher hustled
all the way to the Varsity
26 before Thornton and Bernie
Clay caught him from behind.

Sam again headed back to
pass out temporarily de
ceived the Varsity with a
draw play to fullback Dick
McCashland who got to the
NU 19 before being stopped
as the half ended.

chance to score its second
TD of the day when an Alum
fumble gave the Varsity first
and ten on the Alumni 28.
The Varsity drove to the 14
before a fumble again proved
costly.

Bother Varsity
Coach Bill Jennings had
little to say immediately fol
lowing the Alumni-Varsity
game Saturday in which the
Varsity pounded out a 14-0
win. .
"They didn't do quite as
well as I expected them to,"
Jennings said of his power
packed squad. "Its hard to
evaluate this kind of a game.
You never know how good
the alumni really is," he
added.
The Husker mentor didn't
point to any single player as
outstanding with the excep
tion of quarterback Ron
Meade who was voted the
Outstanding Varsity player
of the game.
"Meade of course, played
well," he said.
Jennings felt that the Ne
braska pass defense was
good except for the passes
his defenders dropped which
could have been intercep
tions. Sideline Quotes:
Several Alumni players had
praise for the 1960 Husker
football team after the game.
Bill Hawkins told Jennings
that his team "looked good,
especially Thornton. He was
hard to hang on to."
Coach Jennings drew a
round of applause from the
crowd when he caught one
of Tom Kramer's punts in
the second half that went out
of bounds due to the wind.
The alumni pulled the sur
prise of the day with an il
legal "sleeper" play just be
fore the end of the first half
which almost netted them a
