Page 4 The Daily Nebraskan Monday, September 27, 1965 Nebraska Escapes In Demoraiizing Victory; 27-17 By Jim Pearse Assistant Sports Editor Some guys just don't know when to quit. Take the cadet wing from the United States Air Force academy for in stance. After parading onto the field for the pre-g a m e pagentry Saturday in Falcon Stadium, Pine Valley, Colora do, they ran to their seats on the side of the natural bowl raising a roar which continued throughout the afternoon. . Or take Paul Stein. N o w there's a courageous cadet, who believes a quitter never wins. And Devaney knows Stein had reason to quit. In the opening period t h e Air Force defensive unit spent the bulk of their time trying to bring down Frank Solich as the abbreviated Husker traveled overland for 110 yards and two touchdowns. Solich's effort helped pile up a prodigious 230 yard Nebras ka offensive thrust good for a 21-0 first period bulge. If the last three periods had been anything like the first one, Stein never would have gotten his chance. The first quarter was played as if a routine had been worked out between the Husk ers and the Falcons. The Air Force would give Nebraska the ball and watch Solich run. Nebraska would give Air Fort e the ball for a f e w minutes so Solich could be with the team. (Otherwise, Flyin' Frankie might have been the loneliest man on the field, running by himself as he did most of the time.) 1 Then Nebraska took back pigskin and Solich would i run away with it like the little kid stealing the ball from all , the big kids on the block. I But that was the first quar i ter. As the second period began, Nebraska began to lose its breath in the thin air of the Colorado mountains, just as I lost mine charging up 84 rows to the dizzy heighth the press box. Now it was Stein's turn. For the late comers the last three quarters may have looked like the upset of the week. Nebraska defenders spent most of the late afternoon chasing down Stein, or his re ceivers, as the scrambler cranked up again and again the ball was a foot short of; passing game, Air Force out and again to put the football navdirt and time was gone in side linebackers moved ud into the first half. close and the defensive tackles Still not willing to give up, spread l0 stop me wiae sum.

Missouri was led by quar terback Gary Lane and half back Charlie Brown and a ti ger defense which didn't al low Oklahoma State to cross the 40 and limited the Cow boy's total offense to 137 yards. Lane completed seven of 12 attempts for 94 yards and added an 80-yard touchdown run to his afternoon's per formance. Brown battered the Cowboy defense for 101 yards and add total. Other Missouri scoring came off the toe of Bill Bates who was successful on field goals from 10 and 14 yards -Ah n, ....kill .W $ . ht - 4U ?r; f .m&t f ..rate til. S7 lAltCS PW 7 .

Oklahoma State's most ser ious offensive threat was stopped on the Missouri three in the third quarter when Johnny Roland pirated a Gbn Baxter pass. Fullback Walt Garrison turned in the Cowboys best performance, carrying 21 times for 91 yards. Rest of Big 8 In other Big Eight action the conference could muster only one win against their in- tersectional rivals. Kansas made too many first-half mistakes in their 15-23 encounter with Arizona. The visitors capitalized on these mistakes for two touch downs and a field goal be fore Kansas got going behind t w o unheralded reserves, halfback Richard Abernathy and quarterback Bill Fenton who figured in on both touch downs. Jayhawker halfback Sims Stokes tied a conference mark for game receptions when he pulled in nine, one a 41-yard touchdown strike from Fenton. Sandy Buda added a first half 25-yard field goal for the rest of the Jayhawker's scor ing. Pittsburg came up with a 13-9 victory over Oklahoma behind two touchdown passes by Pitt quarterback Kenny Lucas. Lucas connected with 42 seconds left in the half to put the game out of the Soon er's reach. The Sooners held the statis tics margin over Pitt but were unable to convert it to a vic tory advantage.
