Exon was planning his offense to defeat the University of Nebraska fieldhouse, Cornhusker athletic director and head football coach Bob Devaney was talking about defense. But politics had nothing to do with Devaney's words. He was talking football. And, defensively speaking, he liked what he saw. "We had some good hitting out there today," said Devaney after sending Nebraska's first two units through a 1V4 hour scrimmage session Saturday. "The defense was pretty tough on the offense." Devaney was not discouraged with the offense, however. He just found more room to compliment the defense than criticize the offense. "The defense has made some progress," observed the head coach. "We've got quite a few guys who like to play." One of the improvements Devaney referred to was at middle guard where Monte Johnson and Rich Glover kept constant pressure on the quarterback. Veteran defensive tackle Larry Jacobson also received Devaney's praise. "The middle guards gave us as much problem as anybody today," said Devaney. "Monte Johnson and Rich Glover are doing a good job, but of course we haven't been able to block Jacobson yet this year." Glover's appearance at middle guard was a rare one. The 225-pound junior from Jersey City, N.J., has been at defensive tackle most of the. spring. He alternated positions Saturday. The lone touchdown scored against the No. 1 defense was a Wfcst you should know about diamonds when you know it's for keeps IWWII'IWIIMIIWIII ii"" v SJX&? f j , Mi Tfl 1 t1 YouVe dreamed about you' diamond engagement ring a tnou sand timet. But now that you know it's for keep, it'i time to stop dreaming and start learning about diamonds and their value. Because no two diamonds are exactly alike, jewelers have adopted exacting standards to de termine the relative value of each and every diamond in the world. These standards include a dia mond's size (carat weight), color, cut and clarity. l j i J : 1 If it .. , Although it's important to know the facts about diamonds, you certainly don't have to be an expert to choose a Keepsake Dia mond Ring . . . because Keepsake guaranteti a diamond of fine white color, correct cut and perfect clar iivor replacement auured.

COLOR: Fine white diamonds are quite are and valued accordingly. Other shades in relative order of their worth are: blue, yellow, brown and black. CUT: The cut of a diamond the facets placed on it by a trained cutterbrings out the gem's fire and brilliance. Anything less than correct cut reduces beauty, bril liance and value. CLARITY: Determined by the ab sence of small impurities. A per fect diamond has no impurities when examined under ten power magnification by a trained eye. CARAT: A diamond's size is measured in carats. As a diamond increases in size, its price will increase even more if the quality remains constant.

Pond Co, 47-yard pass from sophomore quarterback Dave Humm to flanker Johnny Rodgers on the final play. But. finding Nebraska's defensive secondary asleep was the exception rather than the rule Saturday. "The defensive secondary and the linebackers did a good job of covering," said Devaney. "We had a lot of time to throw the ball, but the quarterbacks just couldn't find anybody open." And quarterbacks Jerry Tagge and Humm would attest to the efforts of secondary starters Jim Anderson, Joe Blahak and Bill Kosch. Humm was 0-5 in passing before completing his first pass and Tagge failed to connect on his first two attempts. The No. 1 offense, quarterbacked by Tagge, failed to make a first down in its first two series against the top defense. But then I-back Dave Goeller found room and the offense marched for three straight first downs. MJ soccer team takes 2 -1 kicking from Kansas State Nebraska's soccer team missed a penalty shot with 10 minutes left and dropped a 2-1 decision to Kansas State on the AstroTurf Sunday. Nebraska fell behind 2-0 early in the game before scoring a goal which deflected off a Kansas State player. It was the second spring loss for Nebraska in as many outings. Nebraska lost an earlier decision to Kansas State at Manhatten. K-State finished second in the Big Eight last year. It was the final game as Nebraska financial problems have forced the team from competing in the Big Eight tournament this weekend. J)i II tH Carlbere. . .anchored NlTs distance medley in 4:01 less than two hours before coming back to win the open mile. Carlherg wins at Drake; NU second in mile relay It had been a long spring for the Nebraska track team. All through the relay circuit -Texas. Kansas and now Drake the Huskers had failed to win an event. There had been some school records set by the two-mile relay team and second place Joe Hupp, Jr. presents for benefit to defray legal expense of appeal by Lt.Wm. Calley AY, APRDL 8:30 p.m. Pershing Auditorium tickets: $2.50 advance $3.00 at the door finished at Kansas and Drake, but nothing that really stood out. No victories. Then came the Drake mile run late last Saturday afternoon. Nebraska's only entry was Greg Carlberg who had to be running tired. Two races on Friday and a mile in 4:01 on the distance medley less than two hours earlier had to be a factor when running against opponents who were fresh and rested. But Carlberg followed the pace easily before blasting away in the last 150 yards to win in 4:05.3 It fiave hnn his first Drake Relays watch and salvaged something from what had previously been a mediocre day for Nebraska. "I really felt good," he said later, "coming down the stretch I was flying. I don't think I've ever had a kick like that before. I knew I had it when 1 passed Doug Smith on the last turn." Carlberg was encouraged by the double mile performance Saturday and believes he's close to being ready for a big mile dual at the conference meet in May. While he was busy zipping quick four-lappers. his chief rival, Jerome Howe of Kansas State, was putting togehter a 4:00.3 n,;ie himself in the distance medley. "He'll be tough to beat at Big Eight," Carlberg warned. "He's been running good times consistently. Larry Rose of Oklahoma State will be in there, too." Shortly after Carlberg's gold medal run the Cornhusker's mile relay squad of Bob Pierce, Leighton Priestley, John Mottley and Garth Case combined for their best effort of the spring, a 3:06.2 second place finish that grabbed the Big Eight lead back from Kansas State.
