'Super passing game lifts Reds to 5-4 win
It was a beautiful day for a game: no wind,
temperature 72 degrees, field slick but fast.
The teams were matched perfectly. The two
1 1-man squads already were on the field, one clad in
red and white, the other-in blue and white.
They were going through their warmup drills as
the crowd gathered slowly around the rectangular
stadium.
"This'll be a whitewash," one fan crowed. "The
Blues don't stand a chance against our defense."
"No," claimed another, "they won't get a
shutout. Their offense isn't that strong, even if they
do have a good defense."
The crowd had finished assembling, and the teams
lined up across the field. Then the ball dropped, the
cry went up from the gallery, "Let's foos," and the
battle was on.
A violent pull from defense shook the stadium,
but the Blue's stalwart goalie kicked the ball out. He
retaliated with a rocket of his own, and as the ball
caromed off an opponent and into the Red goal
mouth, the roar went up from the crowd,
"Cheeeaap."

Once again the ball dropped onto the field of
play. The contact with the wall was fierce as the
Blues tried to stop a sideline pass by the Reds, but
the pass set up a quick push shot that tied the score.
The Reds went to a deliberate game plan.
Methodically, the offense set up one cutback shot
after another. The pressure on the Blue goalie was
beginning to tell, and the score ran to 3-1 for the
Reds.
But another rocket from the defensive end by the
Blues brought them back to within one, and then
suddenly, the Blues' front man spanked a shot by the
Red goalie to tie the score again.
The teams traded goals on pull shots, and the
tension in the crowd matched the tension on the field
as the last ball dropped into play.
A quick pass by the Reds set up their front line,
and once again the stadium shook from a vicious pull
shot. The brave Blue goalie moved with the shot and
caught a piece of the ball as it whisked toward the
open slot.
But the ball trickled over the edge and plunked
into the hole, and the fifth and deciding point was
chalked up for the Reds as the crowd began to
disperse.
"At least they could have won it on a clinker,"
the second fan muttered.
"That was a pretty cheap win."
"Well, they just have better players, I guess," the
first said. "Going to class?"

Chicago
gym meet
Nebraska will be going to the Midwest
Open gymnastics meet Nov. 23 and 24
following what Head Coach Francis Allen
termed an "encouraging and
enlightening" showing at the Big 8
Invitational Saturday.
The Midwest Open, held in Chicago,
attracted more than 53 universities last
year and this year is expected to be even
larger.
Nebraska has had two individual
winners in the past at this meet, Allen
himself in 1965 and Foster "Hoppy"
Batten last year.
"We have an excellent shot at
capturing this title," Allen said. "I'm
taking the entire squad, and several
individuals must be considered definite
contenders for their respective events."
Although last Saturday saw defending
NCAA champion Iowa State continue its
seven-year domination of the Big 8
Invitational, the Cyclones may Lie hearing
footsteps. ISU edged host Nebraska
322.05-314.10 for the title. Last March
the Cyclones defeated the Huskers by
16.9 points for the Big 8 title. Saturday
they won by 7.95 as Nebraska scoied a
school record 161.20 in the optional.
"Iowa State isn't the super team they
were in the past Even though we didn't
beat them, we sure found out we can,"
junior Gene Mackie said.
Mackie led the Huskers by tieing Iowa
State's Mark Graham for the horiontall
bar title and finishing third in the
all-around competition.
Other Husker point men included
Steve Dickey and Hal Traver, who were
second and third in pommel horse
competition; Pete Studenski, who scored
a Husker record 9.25 on the still rings to
finish third; and Barry Cross, who was
third on the parallel bars.
"The meet was close; however, it
could have been much closer for us,"
Allen said. He said he was pleased with
the team's overall performance.
"I was particularly proud of Mackie.
The two individuals who beat him in the
all-around were both among the top six in
the nation last year," the six-year head
coach said.
The Big 8 Invitational is not an
official Big 8 meet and has no effect on
the Big 8 championships scheduled for
Norman, Okla in March.
