The Daily Nebraskan Big light Coir&fereiriice Sees Tighter Hcice Evenf Yeair Football, a game measured by the yard, has become a game of mighty few inches in the Big Eight Conference this year, with 14 of the 25 Con ference games played to date being settled by one touch down or less. A close look at these 14 shows five have been decided by seven points, one by four, three by three, one by two, and three by a mere one point, in addition to last week's 14 14 tie between Missouri and Oklahoma, which puts Okla homa in the spotlight in this inches-and-few-points survey. If a word yards longer than the inches that have settled these 14 games Oklahoma had scored three more points at critical times this season, the Sooners would be sport ing a 5-0 Conference record and would be tied in the loss column with Nebraska none each going into this week's game in Norman. Oklahoma lost first to Kansas, 15-14, and then tied with Missouri. On the other hand, if Kansas had scored four fewer points, it wouldn't have the chance to tie for the title going into the Missouri game this The "MYSTERION" HUSHING (HUNICIMl UDiTcatucva ) SATURDAY & SUNDAY NOV. 21, 22nd DAILY 12 NOON TILL MIDNIGHT RAY FARHNER Presents- 3rd National Annual iHl AUT SHOW Featuring the Nations top Show Cars, including ED 'BIG DADDY' ROTH'S "MYSTERION" & "OUTLAW You saw pictures in the leading Rod 8 Custom Magazines, SEE 'EM FOR REAL!

The Jayhawkers beat Oklahoma and Oklahoma State 14-13) by just one point. Missouri? Well, 13 more points would have given the Tigers a tie for the top spot going into the last game. Los ses came to Nebraska, 9-0, and Oklahoma State, 10-7. This is just a start around the vicious circle that points out that games in the Big Eight Conference have been tightre than ever before. Car rying this one step further and takin 21 of the 25 Confer ence games into considera tion, the average final score of these games has been 14. 14 to 8.04 one touchdown, anybody's game. Not only has this close se ries of games been reflected in the standings Nebraska didn't clinch a piece of the ti tle until last weekend but it has also been mirrored at the gate, where the three teams that have completed their home seasons Iowa State, Kansas, and Nebraska have all come up with record at tendance marks. Iowa State played at home only four times but attracted a crowd of 84,000. Kansas, playing its second season in an expanded stadium, broke its season customer draw for the second straight year, lur ing 202,000 into its Memorial Stadium. Perhaps the greatest up surge came at Nebraska, where the Cornhuskers broke their old six-game standard in just five home appearances with 225,975 fans in their newly-expanded Memorial Stadi um. The Conference as a whole, with five games left, has drawn 1,236,836, just 42 peo ple over 48,000 away from the single-season, total-attendance mark of 1,284,878 set back in 1960. This record will go this weekend, with sellouts of near capacity crowds expected at all four games, including the Missouri-Kansas and Oklahoma-Nebraska key games. The fans at these two games alone will put the figure well over 1.3 million. EH3BGES3 GSBSI HUSKER HEADUNER Offensive Tackle Kramer Is Consistent Performer Larry Kramer has been selected as this week's Hus ker Headliner. Nebraska's fine All-America tackle can didate has been a steady per former all year. Larry is primarily an of fensive specialist, but got some defensive duty Satur day after Walt Barnes was injured. LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS YOUNG ADULTS 51 50 SUB-TEENS 50' " ' Kramer is the cause of op posing coaches nightmares. You k ,ow, the kind one gets after watching the movies of the Cornhuskers and hearing the scouting reports. On successive plays, Kra mer can be seen causing hav oc in the opposing team's stunting defense, as he clears the kind of hole that Husker backs like to run through. Kramer is also an outstand ing downfield blocker as any one who saw him take Mis souri's Johnny Roland off Ken McCloughan's back on his touchdown run against Mizzou can testify. Kramer earned this week's award on an accumulation of steady play, rather than on a particularly outstanding show in one game. Frankie Solich was in for close contention for his sec ond Headliner award with an 99-yard kickoff runback and sixty-nine additional yards rushing. Thursday, November 19, 1964 The PEG-Board By Peggy Speece The 1964 Tokyo Olympics are practically ancient his tory but a pair of comments came to light only this past We6Billy Mills, now a U.S. Marine, knocked out every body's eyes when he won the Olympic 10,000 meter run. As a trackman at Kansas several years back he was no better than the usual college distance runner. Billy Mills proved that desire and hard work can bring a fellow a Sports Illustrated magazine did a thorough job of cov ering Mills and his spectacular achievement. Buried deep in the article was a quote from Mills con cerning his college career. "I didn't get along with the coach," he said. . Track coach at Kansas then and now is Bill Laston, who has guided the Jayhawkers to many a track cham pionship, both indoors and outdoors. But this comment, while personally amusing perhaps, did not strike me as particularly outstanding until I read a press release from the Big Eight Conference Service Bureau. The quote reads: 'In reviewing the thrilling finish of the 10,000 meter race at the Tokyo Olympics won by" Bill Mills, a former pupil of Coach Bill Easton at Kansas, Easton explains: "Coming out of the last curve, Billy reached down in the seat of his pants for the sprint and came from four yards back to win by four in Olympic record time." Coach Easton later admitted that after the race, "I sat down and cried and wasn't ashamed ... I could have gone home than and been satisfied that I'd seen the Games."
