Rood Awakening
By Mick Rood
Sports Editor
Midwest football fans can hold their heads high these
days. Four Big Eight teams, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Kan
sas, and Missouri, have merited extensive attention this
week.
If these appraisals are accurate, the Husker camp can
feel little comfort. Both conference "dark horses," Mis
souri and Kansas, appear stronger than first thought. The
Tigers gave Northwestern a busy afternoon and then up
set tough Arkansas while the Jayhawks convinced any
skeptics with a convincing 10-0 margin over Syracuse.
These two murky obstacles cloud Husker heaven . . .
meanwhile off in the distance, is a deep, dark chasm
called Oklahoma that Nebraska meets at the end of their
journey. The Sooner ... the better?
Associated Press writers apparently see little in the
Husker win over Minnesota. The nation's scribes placed
Nebraska somewhere in the second twenty while the UPI
pushed the Scarlet to the number ten spot. All partiality
aside, I would agree with the later evaluation. Look for
Minnesota to finish at least third in the Big Ten.
Who says Nebraska has no players comparable with
the nation's best in the backfield positions? Willie Ross
is a better ball carrier than Gayle Sayers. Dennis Clar
idge is easily a better quarterback than any in the Midwest
and equal to or better than any in the country this year.
Bob Hohn is going to be one of the most respected runners
in the conference when the Missouri, Kansas, and Okla
homa games roll around. These statements are not so
brash as they look ...
There is little doubt Ross could lead the Big Eight
this year, but he doesn't carry that much for the Huskers.
Claridge could break many a passing record if the Scarlet
offense was unbalanced. With the possible exception of
Oklahoma, Bob Hohn would start in any other Big Eight
backfield. Nebraska simply has too much talent for tow
ering records to be broken that is as far as individuals
are concerned. As a team? That is a different story.
One who insists that the Yankees will win the series
in seven games, even after losing the opener, could be a
poor prognosticator, but here are this week's picks:
Nebraska by 34 to 7 over Iowa State; Colorado by one
over Kansas State; Texas to swamp Oklahoma State; Wy
oming losing by 15 to Kansas; Missouri romps past Idaho;
Pittsburgh 22, California 15; Georgia Tech by 10 points
over LSU; Northwestern no easy victor over Illinois;
Washington to take Iowa by 7; Southern Cal on the re
bound against Michigan State; Navy flying past Michigan;
Minnesota to surprise Army; Notre Dame to squeak past
Purdue; Penn State to edge Rice; Stanford to beat UCLA.
Claridge And Mates Lead
Circuit After Two Frays
Dennis Claridge, Nebraska's
all-around quarterback, leads
the Big Eight in both total
yardage and passing and is
tied for first in punting.
Claridge added 104 yards
against Minnesota for 252 to
tal yards. His four pass com
pletion in eight attempts gives
him 8 for 16 and 195 passing
yards for the season. Claridge
and Tony Leiker of Kansas
both average 44 yards punt
ing. Kansas junior Gale Sayers
of Omaha is the conference
rushing leader. Against a big
Syracuse line, Sayers ran for
122 yards, an average of 7.2
yards a carry. That perform
ance brought Sayers up to a
6.6 yard average and 190 total
yards.
Sayers moved up from
fourth in rushing and went
from eighth to second in to
tal yardage.
Iowa State's Tom Vaughn is
second in rushing, with Okla
homa workhorse Jim Grisham
third. Nebraska's Willie Ross,
in fourth place with 127 rush
ing yards, has the top con
ference average with 7.1
yards per carry.
Ross gained 91 yards against
Minnesota, and Grisham
gained 86 as Oklahoma upset
the defending national cham
pions, Southern California.
Nebraska's Rudy Johnson

ON CAMPUS
NU Bowls
In League
The University of Nebraska
bowling team has recently
been admitted to the Kansas'
Nebraska Conference of the
National Intercollegiate Bowl
ing Association.
Members of this newly-
formed league are Kansas U.,
Kansas St., Wichita U., and
Nebraska. This conference is
the only collegiate bowling
conference in the Midwest
which is run( strictly on a
face-to-face competitive basis
Coach Jim Hornby re
marked that "the formation
of this conference is, I believe,
very indicative of the prog'
ress that collegiate bowling
is making all over the coun
try."
The league is conducted on
a tournament basis with each
school playing the host role
twice during the year. Com
petition consists of a three
game team match against
each of the other league
members. The winner of the
conference then competes in
regional tournament to de
termine the national team
champion of the National In
tercollegiate Bowling Associa
tion.
The first round matches of
the new league are being held
at Kansas U. on Saturday
November 5. Making the trip
for Nebraska will be Keith
Van Velkinburgh, Phil
Schenck, Bob Gant, Dave
Morey, and Ralph DeLong.

Men To Run In
Tough Triangular
Nebraska's cross country
squad will take on Drake and
Iowa State in the season's
opening meet at Des Moines,
la. on Oct. 4.
Last year's triangular was
won by an inexperienced
Drake team who edged Ne
braska by one point. Since
nearly all of Drake's squad is
back it is expected the opener
will be a tough meet.
Four of six men listed by
Coach Frank Sevigne are re
turnees to the Nebraska squad.
These include John Portee,
senior from Newark, N. J.,
Larry Toothaker, junior from
Plattsmouth, Stuart Tucker,
senior from New York iCty,
and Jim Wendt, junior from
Kenosha, Wis.
New to the team are sopho
mores Tucker Lillis and Peter
Scott, both from Boston, Mass.
Nebraska placed third in the
Conference run at Ames, la.
lest November behind the
strength of Mike Flem:ng and
Ray Stevens who finished 1-2.
The harriers will miss the
services of these two as both '
have graduated. j

Nebraska is expected to

day in Lincoln.
A sellout crowd of 37,500 or
more is expected for the con

Coach Devaney expects to
field two teams of equal
strength, and a squad deep
enough to overpower the Cy
clones. Devaney explained
that Nebraska is no longer
experimenting with personnel
after two non-conference
games. He praised the alter

Iowa State is expected to
pass considerably. Scout Clet

forward wall moved by the
lighter Keydets of VMI, and
few clubs are expected to run
against the huge Nebraska
line.
Cyclone Coach Clay Staple
ton said that Iowa State would
definitely throw more against
Nebraska but refused to con
cede that passing is Iowa
State's only chance. Stapleton
has driven his team hard this
week to develop staying pow
ers since his squad does not
have the depth to platoon
against the Huskers.
The presence of Dick Lim
erick, the top receiver in the
Big Eight, would indicate a
prolific Cyclone passing at
tack. Quarterbacks Bucky
Bunte and Larry Switzer have
worked on passing this week,
but the Cyclones haven't neg
lected running.
Stapelton has spent most
of the offensive time tying to
