Regents Approve
Larger Stadium
Seating capacity up to 61.800
may make Memorial Staduim
the biggest football arena in
the Big Eight, by the opening
game with Texas Christian
next September.
At a meeting in Kearney the
University Board of Regents
authorized plans to be drawn
to enlarge the stadium for the
third time in three years.
In the Band Day encounter
with Iowa State this year, the
stadium held 54,125. If plans
can be drawn which would
approximate the long range
plan established a year ago.
stadium seating could exceed
the 61.000 mark.
Approximately 10,000 per
manent seats could be added,
but it would not be a net gain
as some corner bleachers
could not be used.
The additional seats will be
placed on either side of the
new north end addition, mak
ing the stadium nearly a com
plete bowl.

their next shot went wild
and was picked off by Stuart

home winning streak intact.
Texas had closed to three
points with a little over than
three minutes remaining, 65

game to pick up the percent
age shot.
In the three minutes that
followed, however, the Husk
ers had raced to their widest
margin of the game and
scored up nine points while
limiting the Longhorns to two.
Tom Baack started the fire
works as he stepped to the
free throw line in a one-and-one
situation and swished
both of them to pull ahead by
five points. 67-62.
After a quick turnover to
the Huskers , the Longhorns
were back on defense and had
left Nate Branch under the
basket alone, Branch picked
up an easy two and the Husk
ers went ahead 69-62.

summarized Coach Joe Ci
priano as he looked back
over his team's victory
over Texas.
"We made a lot of mis
takes and our defense
wasn't good." He continued
that "Texas is a fine shoot
ing team and we have got
to improve on defense."
Nebraska's main trouble
he noted was that "we
didn't move the ball on the

liked to. there was too

rebounds.
The 4,800 fans that had gath
ered at the Coliseum saw the
Huskers jump to an early lead
after Lantz had got the jump
and' Branch scored with 19:27
to go in the half. Four min
utes later though, the Long
horns came back in the game
and took the lead from the
Huskers.
After a see-saw battle for
the lead, the Huskers held a
slim two-point margin when
the gun sounded for the half.
The widest margin the Husk
ers were able to claim was
six-points after Nebraska's
press and the defensive work
of Grant Simmons caused two
quick Longhorn turnovers.
The Huskers managed to
put the game on the ice in the j
closing minutes, after the
nine-point scoring streak and
take their fourth victory on

an 11 point margin in to the
gun.
Four of the starters finished
in double figures. Branch led
with 19, followed by Lantz and
Simmons with 17 and Baack
finished with 14, six in t h e
last three minutes.
Junior letterman Willie
Campbell was forced to sit
,out the game, due to a severe
sprained ankle suffered in
the last minute of the Cali
fornia game.
The next home game f o r
the cagers will be Sat.. Dec.
18 when they are matched
with South Dakota.
