Hunting safety stressed by officials
With duck-hunting season already upon us and deer
and pheasant seasons opening next month, the woods will
be filled with hunters, shotguns, and more than likely,
hunting accidents.
The following are a few examples of Nebraska hunting
accidents in 1975 and 1976 taken from Game and Parks
Commission records. Statistics are not yet available for
1977.
In one case, a hunter "slipped and blew entire left arm
off the victim at 40 feet with a 12 gauge double-barrel
shotgun." The shooter and victim both were 15.
In another accident, the victim "had apparently taken
a position on top of a haystack to hunt deer. Shooters
were driving past a hay meadow where they observed
what they thought was a coyote on top of the haystack.
Both got out of the car and fired at the object."
When the hunters went to investigate, they found not a
dead coyote, but a dead hunter. The accident occurred
when it was nearly dark, and probably was after legal
hunting hours.
Mistaken for procupine
In a third accident, a victim was "mistaken for a porcu
pine" when only the victim's head was visible. The 75-year-old
victim was shot in the head by a 41 -year-old
hunter.
Wildlife officer Dale Johnson said the Nebraska Game
and Parks commissioner's files are full of grisly accident
records like the ones above, and the most common ingre
dient in all of them was hunter carelessness.
Huskers turn . . .
Continued from Page 10
The crowd of 53,262 watched the Huskers Billy Todd
stake Nebraska to an early 3-0 lead via a 17-yard field
goal.
That lead evaporated moments later when CU's
Howard Ballage returned the ensuing kickoff 100 yards
and was promptly buried in the end zone by a delirious
Colorado bench.
Two minutes later, the Buffaloes racked up another
score after Tim Roberts caught a Nebraska fumble in the
air and returned it 45 yards to the Huskers' three yard
line. Four plays later the score was 14-3, Colorado.
Nebraska then calmly went about knotting the score
and ended up scoring the game's final 49 points.
With Berns at I-back, UNL marched 80 yards to score
in eight plays. Snapping it up in eight to ten yard bursts,
Berns accounted for 58 of those yards.
Todd added a 45-yard field goal on the second Husker
possession of the half making it 24-14 with 7:29 left in
the third period. On UNL's third possession of the half,
a 42-yard pass from quarterback Tom Sorley to tight end
Junior Miller capped a 60-yard drive in three plays. Call
it UNL31,CU 14.
Later, Wurth bolted around left end, ran through two
Colorado tacklers and scooted into the end zone on a 43
yard run -the longest run from scrimmage by a Husker
back this year.
Johnson said accidents may result when hunters
handle guns improperly, stumble, cross fences, drop
guns and carry loaded guns in moving vehicles or mistake
other people for game, he said.
"Very few are the fault of the gun, most often it's
the fault of the gun handler."
Dick Turpin, coordinator of the Game and Park Com
mission's Hunter Safety Program agreed.
Don't give a damn
"Some people just don't give a damn, they lack the
basic hunting safety knowledge. But more than that, most
of those accidents are the result of a violation of law."
He said if people would obey hunting laws, accidents
could be reduced.
Turpin gave the following suggestions to hunters.
"Be sure you stay in line with people you are hunting
with.
"Watch carefully for other hunters, and be damned
sure of what you're shooting at.
"Don't carry a loaded shotgun in the car. Not only is it
illegal, it's an easy way to get shot from four feet or less.
"Be visible. Wearing hunter orange is very important.
"Be sure of your target and what is behind it.
"Don't have a weapon in your hand when crossing
fences. Unload it or set it down on the other side of the
fence before crossing."
Both Turpin and Johnson agreed that during the first
weekend of deer season the woods will be saturated with
deer and pheasant hunters and hunters should be especial
ly careful then.
Meanwhile, Colorado could generate only four pass
completions, nine first downs and 185 total yards against
the Husker defense.
Asked to explain Nebraska's domination of CU, UNL
Head Coach Tom Osborne said, "We always seem to play
Colorado with a lot of confidence.
"We played good steady football and they kind of
folded. When we get ahead they often seem to lose it,"
Osborne said in a happy post-game locker room.
The UNL head coach said Nebraska never panicked and
wore down the Colorado defense that spent a long time
on Folsom Field Saturday afternoon.
Miller labeled CU's defense quick and strong, but said
the Buffalo offense "is very shaky at best."
'Their defense kept coming at us and there was a lot
of talking back and forth between the teams," Miller
said. "There was also a lot of cheap shots throughout the
game."
Colorado defensive tackle Ruben Vaughan summed it
up by saying, "We are really intense for this game every
year. We thought maybe today was the day. Today is the
day Colorado would finally beat Nebraska.
"But we were outplayed and outcoached again. We did
the best we could. That's all there is to say."
