Pogff 4 The Daily Nebraskan THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1963 K-State provides challenge, Huskers' chances bright by Mark Gordon Sports Editor Kansas State appears to be another Utah to some Nebraska football followers, but Mack Herron, Lynn Dickey and Dave Jones could easily disprove that notion by late Saturday afternoon. The Wildcats have dropped all four Big Eight games and has a 2-5 record. They will in vade Lincoln for a 2 p.m. Sat urday homecoming match with Nebraska's 5-2 Huskers, and have three ingredients to make Husker followers forget about Utah comparisons. In Big 8 meet . . . Hiisker runners finish to by Randy York Assistant Sports Editor In recent years, Nebraska cross country Coach Frank Sevigne may have felt he was racing a Volkswagen in the Indianapolis 500. But things are different now because he feels he has a faster machine. His Hiisker harriers have been the Big Eight doormat long enough. Sevigne is con fident the situation will change when the conference meet ends Saturday at Lawrence. "KANSAS IS definitely the favorite," Sevigne said, "but they'll .have to contend wiih us. Colorado and Missouri." Nebraska, which had not won a dual meet in the last two years before this season started, knocked off Missouri at Lincoln, but ran second to Colorado in a high-altitude test at Boulder. Kansas, however, decisively bested Kansas State last weekend in the Kansas State Federation Meet. Nebraska has also topped the Wildcats, but the contest was close. iiHiiHttiuiHiiiiitMiiiiunitiuniniiiinHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniitiiiiiiiHiMiiiiHiiunitiiiiiiiHiiiiiHiiuniiiiiiiiie From That Desk I In The Corner I by J. L. Baldwin Sports Columnist As college football teams enter November competition, the major confer n.e races are beginning to emerge. The next three weeks of league encounters and classic rivalries will determine the titles. The Big Eight cham pionship will probably depend on the Kansas-Missouri game at Columbia Nov. 2 3 . Although still mathematically in the race, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Colorado ap pear relegated to spoiler roles. EXCITING FOOTBALL also remains in the Southeastern, Big Ten, Southwest, Pacific Eight and Western Athletic conferences. Seven, repeat, seven teams in the 10-member SEC still could win the title. Two of the three front-runners, Auburn and Tennessee, collide Satur day in Alabama and the other leader, Georgia, meets pre season favorite Florida in Gainsville. Ole Miss, after a 27-24 win over arch-rival Louisiana State, has a laugher Saturday against Chattanooga, but LSU and Alabama will play for real at Birmingham. The SWC has Texas, Texas Tech. Arkansas and SMU tied tor first with 3-1 records, j Texas appears to have the! easiest path to the crown I J if Diane Dudley will cheer Wingback Herron, who runs a 9.3 100 yard dash, has returned two kickoffs for touchdowns. One was for 100 yards and the other 99. Overall he has returned 14 kickoffs for 441 yards for a 31.5 yard average, the Big Eight's second-best. HERRON IS also fourth in the league in total offense averaging 84.3 yards per game, trailing only Oklahoma's Steve Owens and Eddie Hinton and Kansas' Donnie Shanklin. Herron's backfield mate, sophomore quarterback Lynn season "We're not counting ourselves out by any means." Sevigne said. "Anything can happen. We have good depth, and we'll give them (Kansas) a good run." THE HUSKERS have shown steady improvement each week. Sevigne said, rin added that they have tapered off in this week's workouts. Sevigne cited a psychological change i n practice sessions this week. "Whenever you go for a con ference title," he said, "this is going to happen. "I mean this is it," Sevigne said. "It's not like in footbaU where a team plays each week for the title. In cross country, it's a one shot deal." That one shot deal happens to be three miles long. And the Lawrence layout will confront seven Huskers Saturday freshmen Mike Lee and Dave Bradley, sophomores Jim Lang and Greg Carlberg and juniors Pete Brang, Mel Campbell and Bob Tupper. since they have already played the other contenders, but the Longhorns' biggest game will be its last, a nationally-televised Thanksgiv ing Day affair with hated Texas A&M at Austin. TEXAS TECH closes with Arkansas at Lubbock, while SMU meets both Arkansas and Texas A&M. I wouldn't be surprised if these four teams finish in a fourple tie and the Cotton Bowl officials commit suicide. Two - team struggles dominate the Big Ten and WAC races. Michigan and Ohio State should decide the War of the Roses Nov. 23 at Columbus while Wyoming and Arizona probably will do the same in a title-decider in Tucson. Helga iimpeccalle Tel taste. f Si ... jssmwi I the Huskers on Saturday. Dickey appears to have replaced Bill Nossek as the Wildcat's starting signal caller. Last week he com pleted 16 of 26 first half passes for 167 yards in a 35-20 loss to Oklahoma. Dickey is the conference's fourth leading passer averaging 128.4 yards per game as the Wildcat passing game ranks second best in the league. They have averaged 169.6 yards per contest, but 15 passes have been stolen by defenders the league's top figure. END DAVE Jones is one reason for the passing totals. The fleet receiver has grabb ed 29 passes for 352 yards and three touchdowns this fall in holding the league's fourth best pass receiving totals. Punter Bob Coble is the league's second best kicker averaging 42.3 yards on 51 punts this fall. Defense has given the Wildcats problems. The highest the Cats rank in any league defense categories is fifth in passing defense as their defense has allowed 27.9 points per game. K-State trails only low State in allowing points. 195 enemy tallies have Deen recorded against K-State in seven games.

O Equitable 196J eare . . . . The department of physical therapy at Nebraska wo established in 1949. Nebraska was one of the first schools in the country to establish a full time physical therapy department, Sullivan said. IN 1949 an average of 4 or j patients a day were treated. He continued that now from 25 to 30 patients a day are treated and the staff has risen to two full time therapists. The most common injuries treated are those to the ank .! and the knee, he said. Thesa injuries are usually caused by intramural sports activities. Strains and pains of ttio back muscles are prevalent during the winter months, Sullivan contined. These pro blems come from poor posture and general lessening of activity. HE SAID that the physic." I therapy department here mostly concerned with acu v injuries. However s o m 1 chronic and disease causeJ disorders are also treated. There is a wide range: equipment in the physic;;! therapy center.

The saivs equipment is duplicated at t'-f Varsity training room in the Fieldhouse. As well as its treatment function, the department also does preventive work, Sullivan said.
