injuries, illness plague rausker a

Linebacker Bill Sloey was placed on coach Bob Devaney's
"out for an indefinite- time" list while I-back Jeff Kinney and
defensive back Joe Blahak have been slowed this week with
illness. , . .
Sloey, who injured his knee in the Oregon game, was re-injured
against Texas A & M and may be sidelined for several weeks.
KINNEY MISSED Monday's workouts and was in sweat
clothes Tuesday after undergoing several tests at the hospital.
"Kinney hasn't been feeling good and he's losing weight,'
explained Devaney. "We hope nothing is seriously wrong, but
we're taking every precautionary measure."
Blahak missed Tuesday's drills with the flu. The junior
cornerback is expected to be ready for Saturday's game with
Utah State, however. Senior Cfary Uollestein backs up Blahak.
Nebraska tightened its grips on the No. 1 position in both the
Associated Press and United Press International polls.
THE CORNHUSKERS, following Notre Dame's narrow 8-7
win over Purdue, claimed 44 of 55 first-place votes in the AP poll
and 33 of the 35 UPI first-place votes.
Nebraska leads second place Michigan by 224 points. Colorado
jumped to the No. 6 spot and Oklahoma advanced to eighth to
place three Big Fight teams in the Top Ten.
The Cornhuskers turn their thoughts to their final
non-conference foe before opening Big Eight play at Missouri.

UTAH STATE which owns a 3-0 record, invades Memorial
Stadium at 1 :30 p.m. Saturday.
"I know I'll have a tough time convincing people in
Nebraska," said Nebraska assistant coach Jim Ross, "but Utah
State has a fine football team. It's tough to hand that first loss on

ROSS. WHO SCOUTED the Aggies' win over University of
Nevada-Las Vegas Saturday, said "People in this part of the
country tend to think that temas such as Utah State and New
Mexico State aren't good football teams, but that's not so."
Utah State is led by quarterback Tony Adams, who was named
national back of the week by the AP and UPI following a win
over Kentucky last year.
"You'd have to classify Adams as a running quarterback, said
Devaney. "He can roll out and he also runs the option extremely
well."
But Adams is also a passer. And his favorite target is split end
Bob Wicks who is being mentioned as an All-American candidate.
THERE WERE NO changes in the Cornhuskers' starting
lineup, but Devaney noted that Rich Sanger is threatening Jeff
Hughes for the top punting position.
Sanger, who handles the place kicking chores, demonstrated
his punting abilities against Texas A & M and has a 39.8 average
after four kicks.
City rolls out Bike

Bike Week, a city-wide
event sponsored by the
University Recreation and
Intramurals Department in
conjunction with City

also provide a chance to
register their bikes."
The week will begin Sunday
with a bike race at the East
campus tractor testing site
starting at 1 p.m. The main
event will be pace-lapped by
Lincoln mayor Sam
Schwartzkopf and City

There is a 25 cent entry fee for
the Sunday race to defray the
cost of trophies and insurance,

Thursday at the Henzlik Hall
