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

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.

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.

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."
