To its victims, a hurricane
appears to be two separate
storms the storm being
divided by the eye of the
hurricane.
The University of Miami
Hurricanes will attempt to
create a similar phenome
non for television football
fans mis season.
The Miami Hurricanes, as
the leading edge of an in
famous Atlantic storm, blew
over the Pittsburgh Panthers
in Miami's opening game of
the season, which was tele
vised on a national network.
The eye of the Miami
storm was forced upon them,
because they did not have an
opportunity to perform before
the national TV fans the re
mainder of their season.
However, Miami is hopeful
that the Gotham Bowl game
with the Nebraska Cornhusk
ers to be televised nationwide
will give the Hurricanes the
opportunity to level another
opponent, Nebraska, for the
television fans.
The Miami storm is fost
ered by Coach Andy Gustaf
son, whose land-formed Hur
ricanes have won 90 and lost
57.
One look at the University
of Miami's brochnre, pre
pared for the Gotham Bowl
game, shows that the Hurri-

Nebraska will be represent

games to be held in Sao Pau

Steve Smith, a star outfield

braska baseball teams, has
accepted an invitation to play
on the United States base
ball team.
The U.S. Pan - American
baseball team will train in
Tigertown, Florida in April.
The team will be coached by
Archie Allen.
Smith, a native of Lexing

sity letters two in base
ball and one in track. He led
the Huskers in hitting with a
.351 average in 1961 and with
a .459 in 1962.
Following last spring's sea

AH Big Eight team and was
selected the the second team

He was also named NU's

canes' leading performer is
quarterback George Mira.
The brochure mentions no
less than seven All-America
teams that included Miami's
own Mira. It says that Mira
was runner-up or national
passing honors. It reports
that Mira now holds all school
records at Miami. It des
cribes Mira with such objec
tives as, phenomenal, dazzl
ing, greatest, fabulous.
George Mira's passing rec
ord does its own talking,
however it says he threw
for 28 yards short of a mile.
Miami's passing attack is
indeed dangerous. However,
the Hurricanes have per
mitted the oppositions' pass
ing attack to look almost as
good opponents passed for
1,361 yards against Miami
this season.
Mira's most fired-at target)
is flanker back Nick Spinelli,
junior halfback from Corapol

catches this season for 458
yard
The Miami Sports Publicity
Department writes that the
Hurricanes have a much

lized, and that it should be at
its best for the Huskers Sat
urday. Nick Ryder, a 205-pound
senior halfback from Haver
straw, New York, is Miami's
leading ban carrier, gaining
621 yards rushing this season.
Another storm warning for
the Cornhuskers comes from
Miami's Trainer Dave Wike.
He reports that the Hurri
canes are expected to be far
stronger than they have been
all year with all hurts healed.
If Miami is flopped within
field goal distance, the Hurri
canes have another record
holder for this task. He is
George Wilson who kicked
four field goals this season
for a school record.

will represent the University
of Nebraska in a national
football bowl game for the
first time in eight years when
the Huskers were downed by
a strong Duke team 34-7 in
the Orange Bowl.
The setting will be different
than the Huskers faced in
1955. Tomorrow the Scarlet

Miami of Florida football
team but cold" weather.
Coach Bob Devaney's team
will go into the contest sport
ing an 8-2 season record, the
finest for Nebraska in 22
years. Coach Andy Gustav
son's Hurricanes hold a 7-3
season mark with losses to
Northwestern, Louisiana State
and Alabama.
The Nebraska gridders
went through their last borne
work-out yesterday with a
break from the weatherman
as temperatures reached the
high 20't. The team drilled
outside concentrating on their
kicking game and reviewing
punt and kick-off returns be
fore viewing films of several
Miami games.
Nebraska's foremost assign
ment will be defensing All
American quarterback
George Mira. To this job

Warren Powers, Dave Thisen,
Kent McCloughan and Dennis
Claridge.
"We'll try to set the best
defensive backs in as much
as we can," remarked Coach
Devaney. ,
Devaney compared the Mi
ami offense to that of Okla
homa State although he cau
tioned, "They're (Miami)
much tougher." As to team
strength Devaney felt the
Hurricanes were probably a
lot like Missouri; but when
asked how they would com-

pare to Oklahoma he re
marked, "they're probably
somewhere between Missouri
and Oklahoma." They're sim
ilar to Oklahoma in that they
can score from any spot on
the field."

terback we've faced," com
mented the Husker mentor on
Mira.
