Rood Awakening By Mick Rood Sports Editor Even the word Missouri around campus triggers many a cringe or frown. For it was just last year on Homecoming, on television, on Memorial Stadium turf that the Tigers hu miliated Nebraska. The score was 16 to 7. It was especially disheartening because the Huskers had strong six straight before the Tigers' invasion. This fact, is itself, had instilled a certain pride in Husker fans and players alike. After years of mediocrity, winning was a charming habit. The Missouri loss destroyed that habitual pride much quicker than it had been built. Kansas helped Nebraskans forget somewhat, just as Colo orado has lifted us from the Air Force loss this year . . . And the pride is very much alive and vibrant. The Missouri Memory is also very much alive. But one will overcome the other one can aid defeat, the other vic tory. Dennis Claridge can't forget the hard-charging Tiger lineman; Willie Ross won't forget that tough pursuit; Dave Theisen probably doesn't want to remember that fatal fum ble; the whole darn team that saw Missouri action last year won't forget That's just it. ( This year it's going to be different. I would venture to say that this is the game the Huskers have been waiting for. They are literally, "up for the game." It was back in 1956 when Nebraska last beat Missouri, 15 to 14. It's going to happen again in 1963. Make it NE BRASKA 14, MISSOURI 0. Missouri's Homecoming, by the way. Charlie Roach, President of the Extra Point Club has a worthwhile suggestion for Nebraska students. Red is the word. Living units who have pushed red apparel and hats at Nebraska games have indicated a real spirit. The sight from the press box "at Minnesota and at Kansas State (away games) was real impressive. One Minneapolis scribe said he had never seen so many visiting fans in the Gopher's stadium. Red color was sprinkled liberally through five sec tions of seats. Word has it that Coach Devaney gives the idea his full support Missouri is your chance to show off Nebraska's Big Red in a big way. You know, the red suit, the red tie, the red socks, the red hat, the red . . . This week's Star of the Week pick was more difficult than usual with the Colorado game showing the best team effort to date. Bob Brown was chosen for his game saving plays, but indeed there were others. John Dervin played one f the best defensive games for a Husker this year with five unassisted and three assisted tackles. Back Dave Thei sen, Bob Hohn and Maynard Smidt all ran welL Who is to ay?

The fumble, one three the Huskers lost, was typical of the Homecoming game last year Nebraska couldn't do one thing right. Claridge and most of his mates are back tthis year to avenge ine liger loss next Saturday. Favored NU Hopes To End Tiger Wins For seven long years Ne braska has not been able to beat the Missouri Tigers in a grid contest. Back in 1956 the Husker squad, then under Coach Pete Elliott, pulled out a 15-14 win. Last year's 7-16 Homecom ing loss represented the first time Nebraska has even scored in those years. According to Comhusker Coach Bob Devaney, Missou ri's offensive attack presents even more problems than that of a year ago. Last year Missouri didn't have a passing attack; now they have a good passer in quarterback Gary Lane. The Tiger signal-caller has gained more yards in total of fense than any Husker back. He ranks fifth in the confer ence with 487 yards. He has hit 29 of 59 passes for 337 yards and has run for 150 yards m 64 carries. Nebraska's Dennis Claridge is right behind Lane, however, with 460 yards total offense. Claridge has passed for 345 yards and has gained 15 yards rushing. Devaney compares Lane to Air Force's slippery signal- caller, Terry Isaacson. He presents every bit as much of a problem to defend against, said the NU mentor. The Husker coach feels that the loss of Monroe Phelps early in the Iowa State-Missouri tilt definitely hurt the Tiger offense but cautions that Missouri has had all week to build up an offense without Phelps for this Sat urday's clash. "They have Phelps out but we have three key players who are doubtful," Devaney noted. The status of halfback Wil lie Ross, tackle Monte Kiffin, and center Lyle Sittler still remains doubtful. Kent McCloughan is con tinuing to run from both half back positions in case Ross is not ready. Devaney said he was pleased with Dave Theis en's running at left half against Colorado, but that due to Theisen's problems with leg cramps the past two years he hesitates to depend on him entirely. Devaney reported that Frank Solich, NU's punt and kick-off return specialist who was injured in the Minnesota game will not travel to Missouri. Clean IM Record By Betas Leads Beta Theta Pi's "A" intra mural football team keeps its hold on first place in Frater nity League 1-A with a 15 to 6 victory over Sigma Chi Tuesday. Through Tuesday's games the Betas have the top Uni versity record of 5 and 0. Beta Theta Pi took a 6 to 0 halftime lead when Bob Kvaal caught a touchdown pass from Bruce Brandt. Early in the third period Brandt tackled a Sigma Chi in the end zone for a safety. Early in the last period Steve Olson, who played a fine defensive' game despite the Sigma Chi loss, caught a pass from Denny Bargen for a touchdown. The Betas then scored again late in the per iod on a long Dick Rademach er pass to Brandt.
