It may be the number of people who attend its games or contests. It may be the number of athletes partici pating in it. It may even be the amount of money grossed by paid attendances, televi sion rights, or gifts from fans. Whatever a major sport is, it is obvious that cross country is not one. The peo ple attending the races are coaches, timers, parents 'sometimes) and somebody else whom I seem to have forgotten .. . Oh, yes! The runners. It is really a shame that cross-country is not a ma jor sport. If fans lined up around the three-mile colle giate course like they do around Memorial Stadium on Saturdays, it would be possible to squeeze 1,320.000 fans into prominent posi tions for viewing the sport. (Luckily for Husker fans, Nebraska excells in the ma jor sports. Who would want to see the football team LOOK AGAIN1! But wait aminute! In last Saturday's dual meet with Kansas State, the Huskers (cross-country runners are Huskers too, you know) did not bet blanked. They lost only 18-43, with low score winning.

It seems thoughtful recruiting by coach Frank Sevigne may be beginning to fill the gap. Sophomore Bob Tupper, who placed third against last year's NCAA runner up K-State, is going to be burnin' 'em (that means running fast, loyal cross country fans) before his col legiate career is over. Two other sophomores are running strong for ear ly season. Mel Campbell and Mike Randall will join Tupper for three long years. Junior Don Bishoff, last year's strong man, will help more when he clears up in juries. LOOK DEEPER The freshman out for this sport could defeat their var sity counterparts. Such out standing prep performers as Cliff Colgazier, Larry Carlburg will begin their eligibility next year. SO WHAT? What difference would it make if Nebraska cross country was first or second in the Big Eight next year, instead of the cellar finish of last year? For one thing, Nebraska All-Sports ratingc. Minor sports have held the Hus kers down for the last few kers down for the last few years. And, believe it or not, some schools (as K-State) have gained much national recognition because of out standing distance-running teams. to recover status lost when Big, ers if pre-game forecasters are correct. Colorado's the Big Eight pre-season favorites, has chewed up four opponents handily. "Colorado will be the best team we've played," Coach Bob Devaney said Tuesday, "They are a big powerful team that just comes at you." The Golden Buffalos, are leading the conference with a 25 point per game output, while holding foes to sev en points a game. Colorado is second in the conference with a 211 aver age rushing game, while they have passed for 135 yards per game. TWO QUARTERBACKS Defensively. Colorado is right behind Nebraska with a rushing defense limiting foes to 84 yards per game.

Powerfu If the Buffalos, whp last Saturday crushed previous ly undefeated Missouri 23-9 at Boulder, have a weak ness, it might be their pass defense. The Buffalos are ranked sixth in the Big Eight, allowing 142 yards per con t e s t, but the westerners have picked off a confer ence leading 13 enemy pass es. Devaney said there was no difference in the play ing styles of Colorado's two quarterbacks, sophomore sensation Bob Anderson or veteran Dan Kelly. Anderson, whose brother Dick Anderson, is a Colo rado standout at left safe ty, is leading the Big Eight in total offense. 5.9 PER DAY The 6' 200-pound Boulder native has gained 642 total ugs or Carpeting!

He also rates as the Big Eight's fourth leading pass er hitting on 25 of 45 tosses for a .556 completion mark. Not only can Anderson throw for scores, he c a n also score himself as he leads the league with 24 points on four touchdowns. If Anderson fails to keep the Buffs moving toward Nebraska pastures, coach Eddie Crowder can call on senior Dan Kelly. Nebras ka followers may remem ber him for his first half heroics at Boulder in 1966. Kelly, paced by his 98 rushing yards and 71 pass ing markers in the finst half had his Buffalos stomping Nebraska 19-7 at halftime jn Boulder last year. Lincoln PHONE 475-4508 1 Steve Mwamba, speedy center forward from Zam bia, went on another scor ing rampage Sunday lead ing the University Soccer Club to its fourth consecu tive victory by dumping John F. Kennedy College in Wahoo5-l. Mwamba scored this third three goals in four Midwest Soccer League contests, raising his seasonal total to 10 goals in four games for a potent 2.5 goals per game average. "He's very fast, has su perb ball control and a powerful shot," Club Presi dent Tim Rickard said of his team's scoring leader. MIDFIELD PLAY In defeating JFK for the second time this season, the local crew jumped off to a 3-0 halftime lead and stretched it to 5-1 with oth er goals by Ahmed Hamam and Rickard. Rickard credited the team's midfield play with the Sunday victory. "The other team's attack is being starved of the ball, while our attack is contin ually getting the ball in good position because of our midfield play," Rickard said. He also said the passing game and defensive work was good along with the club's penetrating attack that has produced 23 goals in four matches. GOAL FLOOD "We've had a flood of goals. The whole team has been going well," the club president explained. "But our position in t h e Midwest Soccer League will be much clearer after our next two games with D e s Moines," Rickard added.
