the passing chores as the Hus
kers prepared for the aerial
attack of the Sioux.
Bill Glas, sophomore Nodak
quarterback, is the chief
threat in the Sioux offensive
attack. The Bemidji, Minn.,
native pitched three touch
down passes and scored him
self on a 29-yard run in North
Dakota's opening 46-0 victory
over Montana State.
He also completed seven
out of 13 passes and ran for
233 yards. Glas was listed as
the third string quarterback
before the game.
Regular quarterback Bill
Leifur, who once attended Ne
braska, will make the Ne
braska trip, but won't play,
according to reports.

DAILY CIBRASKM
Big Eight Roundup
IS-Cowboy Battle
Tops Big 8 Weekend
Big Eight football fans
should find plenty of thrills
Saturday when Iowa State
matches skills with Oklahoma
State.
The Cyclones, who were far
from impressive in their 21-0
victory over Drake last Sat
urday, promised a sharp
comeback this week.
"A victory will be ex
tremely important in our
scheme of things," Iowa State
Coach Clay Stapleton ad
mitted. "Cliff Speegle of Ok
lahoma State will have the
same attitude. We can expect
a hard fought, low scoring,
close game here this wek
end."
Since this will be the first
conference game till Sept. 30
the victor Saturday will be the
first to hold the top Big
Eight position.
Tailback Ozzie Clay was the
Cyclones' leading ground
gainer against Drake piling
up 81 yards in 14 carries for
a 5.8 yards per carry aver
age. Highly touted Dave Hopp
man carried 18 times, gained
68 yards and lost eight for a
3.7 average in the IS opener.
The Cyclones have only
three regulars and 16 letter
men back from a team that
won seven and lost three last
year.
Eighteen lettermen are
back at Oklahoma State this
year but injuries this fall
have cost the Cowboys some
key personnel, including quar
terback Jim Elliot who
scored the winning touchdown
against Nebraska last year.
Coach Speegle has been
disappointed in early OSU
scrimmages by the lack of a
tough defense, usually a Cow
boy trademark. He has been
impressed by the improved
passing attack.
Last year Iowa State,
with Tom Watkins leading the
way, defeated Oklahoma State
13-6 at Stillwater. A crowd of
about 18,000 i expected for
this year's battle at Ames.
Elsewhere around the Big
Eight, pre-season favorite
Kansas opens at Texas Chris
tian Saturday night, Kansas
State hosts Indiana, Nebras
ka plays North Dakota and
Missouri will meet Washing
ton State at Columbia.

intersectional battle at Notre
Dame on that date.

By Jan Sack
The fifteen freshmen track
prospects have been termed
"fair" by Nebraska track

the 1961 state classic.

school 880 record in 1:56.0. He
also graduated in the upper
10 per cent of his class.

turnee to the Husker track
circle is Mike Fleming, dis
charged from the U.S. Marine

ing attended the University

events are the 880, mile and
2-mile runs. According to
Sevigne, Fleming will be eli
gible for varsity competition
second semester.
Other tracksters forming
the Nebraska freshman track
team include:
Sprints Jim Stewart from
Plattsmouth.
440 Tom Cole of Warrick,
R.I.; George Butterfield of
Honolulu, Hawaii; G e o r g a
O'Boyle from New York City;

den. 880 Dennis Dondlinger of
Hebron, O'Boyle, Strand and
Wendt.
Mile Ken Gould of Lyons,
