KU Springs Aerial Surprises
As Huskers Coast To 24-13
By Bob Flaanlck
Sports Editor
There were quite a few
aerial surprises at Lawr
ence Saturday in Ne
braska's 24-13 win over Kan
sas. The Husker-Jayhawk
game must have set some
kind of record for aerial
advertising as an endless
parade ol airplanes putted
over a record crowd of 45,
500 people in KU's Memor
ial Stadium advertising con
gressmen, automobiles, the
Red Dog Inn and just about
everything else except TNE.
Out of one of the a i r
planes dropped a parachut
er supposedly sponsored by
a jumping club in Kansas
City. The jumper, support
ed by a chute patched with
the KU colors of Blue and
Red, had one of the best
seats in the house as he
floated down to a gentle
landing close to the south
end zone early in the fourth
quarter.
And then there was Jay
h a w k quarterback Bill
Fenton who completed 9 of
17 passes for 105 yards.
Fenton can't be compared
with a Mira or Namath but
two of the aerials by the
155-pound Lawrence native
were fundamental in KU's
two-touchdown production.
The Jayhawks completed
10 of 19 passes for 117
yards. Kansas had hit only
39 of 93 attempts for 490
yards in the seven previ
ous games.
Husker quarterback Bob
Churchich also had a good
day for himself as he
boosted his aerial percent
age by completing 11 of 15
passes for 101 yards and
showed some good open
field running on a 27 yard
scamper on an option play
around right end for Ne
braska's second touchdown
of the afternoon midway
through the second quarter.
Tabulations after the
game showed that Church
ich set one Nebraska ca
reer record, one season
record, and came within
one yard of the passing
yardage season record.
Churchich now has 2,675
total offense yards in three
seasons at Nebraska, the
old Husker record of 2,635
yards was held by Dennis
Claridge. The other record
set by Churchich is passes
attempted in one season.
He now has thrown the ball
146 times this year, com
pared to 142 attempted in
1962 by Claridge, the old
Nebraska standard.
After Saturday, Chuchich
has 974 passing yards this
season, one yard short of
the record held by Cla
ridge, also set in 1962.
Trailing 18-0, Kansas
struck on a. 25-yard pass
from Fenton to halfback
Junior Riggins with 1:44
left in the third quarter.
The ball bounced off the
hands of KU's Halley
Kampschroeder in the end
zone, but was neatly saved
by Riggins for six points.
Dave Bouda added the ex
tra point and Kansa, so to
speak, was back in the ball
game.
Nebraska's final drive
came late in the fourth
quarter, originating on the
Husker 46-yard line, and

took a total of 13 plays
with all but two of them
on the ground.
The first pass in the
drive came with the Hus
kers facing a second and
15 situation on the KU 40.
Churchich then hit halfback
Harry Wilson for a 12 yard
gain and on the next play
Wilson picked up the first
down.
The Huskers went on the
ground down to the KU
nine, but with third and
seven Churchich decided to
go to the air and he again
hit Wilson who had swung
out to the left and went
into the end zone untouched
with 41 seconds left in the
game.
The two-point conversion
attempt failed (Nebraska
didn't make an extra point
in the game) and the Hus
kers led 24-7 with what
looked like the final score.
But Kansas moved the
ball 78 yards in less than
a minute of play against
the Husker second team de
fense to make the final
score 24-13.
Fenton first hit left end
Dave Buda for a 13-yard
gain to the KU 35. Then
he connected with Kamp
schroeder on a 38-yarder
down to the Nebraska 27.
The little quarterback
tried to pass on the next
play, but with a heavy pass
rush giving him trouble, he
scrambled around left end
for a 15-yard gain down to
the Nebraska 12.
With three seconds left
on the clock, Fenton handed
off to halfback Don Shank
lin who threw a halback
pass to Kampschroeder for
the touchdown. Kamp
schroeder caught three
passes for 62 yards to lead
Kansas receivers.
Right end Tom Penney
led Nebraska with 46 yards
in five catches. Shanklin

ended the game with 77
yards rushing on 21 at
tempts, but game honors
went to Nebraska's Ben
Gregory, who led all
rushers with 79 yards in 17
carries.
The Husker defense gave
one of their best showings
in the first half, holding
Kansas to a minus 14 yards
rushing and limiting KU
passing to 17 yards.
Nebraska's defensive
leader was linebacker Lynn
Senkbeil with six unassisted
tackles and four assists.
His partner at the other
linebacking spot Rick Cole
man, made four tackles
and two assists as did Hus
ker defensive fullback Marv
Mueller.

Nebraska Coach Bob De
vaney's wife keeps a foot
ball scrapbook. In it there
is a clipping proving De
vaney was one of seven
Alma College students se
lected for inclusion in the
1938-39 official "Who's Who

can Universities and Col
leges." The clipping is circled
with red pencil and marked
"important."
"We didn't have the five
dollars required for the
'Who's Wbo' listing," claims
Devaney, "and it's well to
be reminded there were
such days."

Freshmen Edge Kansas
18-10 In Comeback Rally
The Nebraska freshmen
came back to win the final
21 minutes of play last Fri
day and beat the Kansas
frosh 18-10 in Lawrence.
Nebraska fell behind 10-0
with 6:08 left in the third
quarter when Kansas quar
terback Bill Bell kicked a 38
yard field goal. After falling
behind Nebraska started the
comeback with Ken Geddcs
returning the ensuing kick
off to the Kansas 42. Then
Joe Orduna took over, car
rying the ball eight of the
10 plays required for Ne
braska to score.
Orduna carried the ball
five straight times after the
Huskers got to the Kansas
21, getting into the end zone
with a four-yard burst over
the right side with 2:05 left
in the third quarter. A two
point conversion attempt
failed and Nebraska was be
hind 10-6.
Omaha's Ron Drakulich
gave the Huskers another
chance when he recovered a
Kansas fumble at the KU
29. But the drive which fol
lowed bogged down on the
' KU eight.
However, Nebraska was
given another opportunity
when Alan Larson inter
cepted a Kansas pass and
Leonard Mitchell saved the
opportunity after Larson
had fumbled while return
ing the interception.
The Huskers started their
winning drive at the Kan
sas 41 and seven plays later
had gotten only to the KU
30 with a fourth down mak
ing things even darker for
Husker comeback hopes.
But Nebraska's Rex Lowe
maneuvered his way behind
KU defender Steve Carmi
chael at the three-yard line
and quarterback Wilfred
lofted the ball to him. Lowe
stepped into the end zone
for a 12-10 Husker lead.
Again a two-point conver
sion attempt that would
have put the Huskers out
of range of a KU field goal
failed when Minor dropped
the ball while running to his
right.
Nebraska came back with
a final touchdown when
Kansas was forced to punt
from its own one-yard line
after Drakulich had thrown
Bell for a 10-yard loss.
The Huskers moved the
ball 37 yards in six plays
with Orduna scoring h i s
second touchdown, this one
from two yards away with
3:50 remaining. A kick con
version attempt by Bill
Bomberger was unsuccess
ful. But it mattered little since
the three touchdown rally
had assured the Huskers of
their second win in three
starts and left KU with an
mi
November
fli
0-3 mark. Kansas had scored
its- opening touchdown by
driving 81 yards after Larry
Leonard recovered Or
duna's fumble at the KU 19.
But Orduna made up for
the fumble with something
to spare, carrying the ball
28 times for 123 yards as
the Huskers racked up 231
yards on the ground to 83
by Kansas. Nebraska also
led in the passing yardage
by 38-35, mainly on the 30
yard flip from Minor to
Lowe.

play at fullback. He caught
a pass and ran the draw
play well, but the draw just
wasn't there. I thought it
would work better and that
was one of the reasons that
prompted the move. I just
don't know why it didn't
work."
Jack's analysis of the Ne
braska team: "They're
about as good as they want
to be. When they want to
bear down and play they
can be great, but they ap
parently aren't ready to
play all the time. I can't
call a team "great" unless
they want to play 60 min
utes every week."
Husker coach Bob De
vaney on KU's comeback
"Kansas was a good foot
ball team the second half.
I guess our players figured
those 18 points (in the sec
ond quarter) came too easy
and t h o u g h t they didn't
need to put out the second
half. However, at -no time
were we in any danger.
Kansas scored against the
reserves and it was in these
players I am really disap
pointed. Usually they de
liver. But the reserves did
not today."
Conference Notes
A stop watch put on Okla
homa's James Jackson
showed that it took him 6.7
seconds to run the last 65
yards of his 80 touchdown
gallop against Colorado. In
all, Jackson gained 152
yards in 19 carries against
the Buffaloes.

Randall
Churchich Squirm
For a young man who
plans a future in public
relations or personnel man
agement, Oklahoma State's
rawbone defensive tackle
Dennis Randall doesn't
make many friends with op
posing ball carriers or
passers. He doesn't plan
to change things this Sat
turday against Nebraska.
Although he doesn't lead
the Cowboys on the defen
sive scoreboard, the rangy
(6-6 and 228) lineman has
harassed enemy passers
and wiped out patrols of
blockers to leave the ball
carrier exposed to other
tacklers. This doesn't
bother Randall, who is quite
Intense about football.
He claims, "Someone has
to get the interference
down. It's not who does
the tackling, just as long
as it gets done."
He usually gets plenty of
chances to chop down

"The first half we looked

well as we are capable of
playing."

blockers. Randall is State's
"swing tackle" on defense,
which means he usually
plays to the wide side of
the field or, If the opponent
runs a wingback formation,
Randall is toward the strong
side of the formation.
Scoffing at the difficulty
of the swing assignments,
he adds, "Oh, that's not so
much. In our particular
system all of our tackles
have to know the assign
ments for both sides."
The toughest job for a
defensive lineman, ac
cording to Randall, is to
rush the passer. This might
seem odd to many Inas
much 8i Dennis is one of
State's best at this busi
ness. "It might be a little
tougher against dropback
passes because those block
ers just sit back there and
wait for you. Against a roll
out, the blocker must com
mit himself and you have
a good chance to meet him
squarely and fight him off."
Despite the fact that this
is his senior season and his
third year as a defensive
regular, he confesses he
finds it difficult to relax
the evening before a game.
"No, I've never been
completely relaxed before
a game. Sometimes I sleep
well, sometimes I don't
usually I don't. But, when
when you aren't a bit ner
vous before a game, you're
probably getting ready for
a bad performance."
