Otherwise Hawaii might have drawn first blood in this war. Nebraska then went on a sustained drive to the Hawaii 15, with a Tagge pass to Woody Cox for 34 yards the big gainer.

THEN IN the last quarter the Cornhuskers got two more touchdowns to make the count comparable to the slaughters they chalked up against such teams as Kansas, Oklahoma State and Kansas State. Reserve quarterback Van Browson ran for 21 yards for one score just three minutes into the period.

Devaney apparently didn't like this and sent back his first stringer Tagge who promptly tossed a 17-yard aerial to Frosty Anderson in the end zone to complete the scoring with 8:10 left. highs to tvs 4 i 5 4 'N's I 10 Sfk: 1 0 if I i.4'4, I or'''''' tls. -4 0:,, 4 I 4. i f-t c-Aii. ti ..44.

1 ranked Corn-husker rolling over, through and around Hawaii's outmanned line and riddling the secondary with aerial bombs, romped to a 45-3 triumph over the Rainbows last night to the surprise of one. While a crowd of 23,002 that jammed the old Stadium yelled, cajoled and prayed for the Rainbows to do something, the Cornhuskers methodically and skillfully cut them to ribbons. WITH QUARTERBACK Jerry Tagge passing for three touchdowns and running for another, the Husk ers rolled up a 17-0 edge in the first period and never up the rest of the way, although coach Bob Devaney used just about everybody on bench. To their credit, the Rainbows fought right to the end and they did pick up a lot of yardage under the guidance quarterbacks Elroy Chong and Mike Biscotti. Unfortunately it was mostly between the 20-yard stripes.

With any luck at all, Hawaii might have made a close game of it in the first half. But the breaks went against them and, instead, they left the field trailing 24-3.
