Lincoln Journal Star from Lincoln, Nebraska • 1

Festive Mizzou fans just kept the faith and kept afloat in a sea of red By Beverly Bundy Mini Mizzou, Marching Mizzou's little brother, begins playing upbeat songs and the fans get into the swing of it all. Football for them is more treat than tradition. Jon Lewis, Ray Metz and Don Hire drove up to Lincoln from Columbia "with a back seat full of beer." Traveling to games isnt new for them. Trips to Notre Dame, Oklahoma and Kansas State games were sandwiched between their classes this season. "These people all wear red.

In Columbia you don't see a lot of people in black and gold. Maybe because it's hard to find clothes that are black and gold. And these fans are so involved. That's really nice, but I think we're going to win," Hire says. But the mood is festive and the visiting fans are jolly, even though the cold weather is less than hospitable.

The kick-off gun sounds and it's still fun for 18 seconds. No. 2 team, thev could eet closer. It's all very laid-back in the beginning. Missounans trekking to Lincoln find themselves navigating a sea of red washing on echoed shores of "Go Big Red." And those hurrahs are just a small reminder that this football game is not going to end without some rough sailing.

Gary Melcher, an insurance salesman from St, Louis, is a Missouri alumnus and fan sometimes. "I suppose I go to one away game every years," Melcher says. "We've been up and down so many times over the last few years that it's hard to keep the spirit going. "The spirit of these people in Nebraska is amazing. It seems like everyone is a fan not just the alumni.

All these people in red and aU the sellouts they've had here. That's something really different from Missouri." Nebraska waltzes in for an easy six points and the sky fills with red balloons. The fun is wearing thin, boys and girls, and the words to "Fight, Fight, Fight for Ole Missouri" take on a lot of meaning. Fans start cheering on their own favorite Tiger and the breathing is a bit easier after the next touchdown. But hey, these Nebraska people are serious.

It looks like one of those kill or be killed situations. Maybe it's time to buck up. Let's try some more songs. "Missourah, Missourah, Missourah, Tiggggers" sounds from one tiny part of the stadium. Halftime isn't really depressing.

Three points isn't too bad. Time for hot dogs and a restroom run. It's down to serious business in the second half. Mizzou fans seem to think since they got within three points of the "I figure since I came this far to see the game I should put as much into it as I can. After alL how can we expect a team to win without support," Hire says.

The cheerleaders keep building their pyramids on the sidelines but the crowd's attention is elsewhere. After all, this is the big time. Now there's two minutes left on the scoreboard clock and things look a little chancy on the field. But what's this you mean it's over, and Missouri won? Missouri won! The black and golds beat the people that were born, bred and fed on the love of Big Red! Let's go down on the field! There's our boys they did it all! It's time to turn that artificial turf into a dance floor, so grab your partner and let's party And it will all be very laid-back tomorrow maybe. Good Morning Sunday, Nov.

Ryan, and a number of reporters have been shot and killed after an attack on the congressman's fact-finding mission at the airport in Port Kaituma, Guyana. Ryan was leading a 13-person delegation investigating a controversial American religious settlement at Jonestown in the South American country. State Department spokesman Tom Reston said the report reached Washington by a flash message from the U.S. embassy in Guyana, formerly a British colony. Reston said the shooting and Ryan's death have not been confirmed.

Reston said the report was relayed by a pilot who was flying Ryan, a group of reporters and a Ryan staff worker to the People's Temple, a settlement of about 1,200 Americans established in Guyaiiu a year ago by Jim Jones, a former San Francisco city official. The pilot escaped by flying away from the attackers in one of two planes on the landing strip near the settlement. Before leaving San Francisco five days ago, Ryan said: "I am going to investigate the conditions of Americans (in the Jones settlement) who, I have been told, are working from dawn to nightfall, with terrible mental and physical punishments if they don't work hard enough." Jeff Dieterich of the department's Latin American desk said the pilot, who has not been identified by name or nationality, reported it appeared an entire NBC-TV crew, headed by correspondent Don Harris, was shot along with Ryan. It was unclear about the crew's condition, Dieterich said. Also left behind after the shooting was Mark Lane, the lawyer representing James Karl Ray, Dr.

Martin Luther King convicted assassin. Lane was along as counsel for Jones. Dieterich said reports from the U.S. mission showed that two planes had flow to Jonestown and were preparing to leave when the shooting broke out. He said some nine members of the settlement were leaving with Ryan and had boarded one of the planes when one of the nine pulled a gun and began shooting.

The pilot reported general panic with Ryan and the NBC crew lying as if dead, others still moving but wounded and still others running for cover. Western military Brezhnev TEHRAN, Iran (AP) Soviet President Leonid I. Brezhnev warned the West against military intervention in Iran, saying such an act would involve Russia's security, the Soviet news agency Tass reported Saturday from Moscow. It said that in an interview with the Communist Party newspaper Pravda, Brezhnev was asked to "assess foreign press reports on interference by Western powers, especially the U.S.A., in the events in Iran and even the possibility of military intervention by them." Tass quoted Brezhnev as saying "events taking place" in Iran are an in i 40C Sooner official his office before receiving the official announcement, Osborne expressed misgivings. "I can see playing them again if we had played them earlier in the season," he said.

"But I have to admit I'm surprised by all of this." Marks and Kimbrell asked Osborne 20 minutes beforehand what he thought about an NU-OU match. "Do I have a choice?" Osborne asked. "No." "Then I guess I don't have a comment," he said. Kimbrell admitted "personally, I don't favor the game. Tom Osborne has beaten Barry Switzer once on national TV.

I can -understand how he must feel being asked to turn around and beat him again." Still, Kimbrell explained the Orange Bowl thinking by pointing out that "historically, we've always gone for the highest ranking team available. This year, OU happens to fall into that category. "If we had had our wish, of course, we wanted Nebraska to win. We were on puis and needles all day. We had the dream game (Penn State-Nebraska) in the palm of our hand and it just supped out." Devaney winced at Georgia's 22-22 tie with Auburn Saturday as much as he winced at Nebraska's loss to Mizzou.

"This is just conjecture," he said, "but I think Penn State would have gone to the Orange Bowl anyway, if Auburn hadn't knocked Georgia out of the Sugar Bowl and put Alabama in. A couple of bad things happened almost at once." Kimbrell offered another interesting explanation of the Orange Bowl's desire to rematch OU and NU. "If Penn State should get upset by Pitt next week which is a very good possibility in a heated rivalry and if Penn State should go on and beat Alabama in the Sugar Bowl you still might have the national champion in the Orange didn't say which team that would be, but it was understood he meant Oklahoma. Big Eight bucks The Orange Bowl rematch has one other major feature. The Big Eight Conference now will pocket more than $2 million from both teams instead of the $1 million it would generate from having one representative.

Missouri's win also will boost the conference coffers. The Tigers Saturday accepted an invitation to play LSU in the Liberty Bowl. Iowa State is a fourth Big Eight post-season qualifier. The Cyclones will meet Texas in the Hall of Fame Classic in Birmingham. Boon to a dying town or interruption of an idyllic rural lifestyle? The effects of a proposal to build a large coal-fired power plant near Comstock are in dispute.

He is described as the third leader of the Shiite sect, to which more than 90 percent of Iran's 34 million people, including the shah, adhere. Pars said there were pro-shah demonstrations in 11 cities to coincide with Iran's armed forces day Friday. Informed sources said the shah stayed in his palace in Tehran to avoid provoking further riots and because of the potential for assassination attempts. The shah appointed Azhari to head a military-dominated Cabinet Nov. 6 while numerous strikes, including a walkout by 37,000 oil industry workers demanding political reforms, shook the foundations of the nation's economy and social structure.

The oil workers ended their two-week walkout last Monday after a representative of the shah promised their demands would be met The alkout had cut back Iran's vital oil production by two-thirds. The strikers' demands included freedom for all political prisoners and replacement of foreigners in the oil fields by qualified Iranians. The previous government had promised to release most political prisoners in December. lOOO kitchen Cabinets $10.00 and up. RFD Sales, Douglas, phone: 938-3385 -Adv.

4 usker, rematch By Randy York Staff Sports Writer Tom Osborne was genuinely stunned. Nebraska's sixth-year head football coach hadn't even considered playing Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl, but that's the matchup which materialized following the Huskers' 35-31 loss to Missouri Saturday. The Huskers and Sooners in Miami on New Year's Night as Corner Pyle would say: "Surprise, surprise, surprise." Shocking development The Big Two from the Big Eight will bathe on the same beaches and play in the same bowl in the most shocking development in recent bowl history. "I'm a little surprised," Osborne admitted in a rather subdued telephone hookup with the Orange Bowl 90 minutes after his second-ranked Huskers had been upset. "The thought hadn't even crossed my mind," Osborne said.

"It came completely out of the blue. I guess life's full of surprises. I certainly didn't think we'd get beat today either." The line produced some much needed laughter in a telephone conference which linked Osborne, Nebraska Athletic Director Bob Devaney, N'J Chancellor Roy Young and Orange Bowl officials Stan Marks and Charles Kimbrell to the Orange Bowl Office in Miami. Proud to have you Robin White, president of the Orange Bowl, said: "We regret the results of this afternoon's football game, of course. But we are proud to have Nebraska.

Please be advised we have asked Oklahoma to play Nebraska in a match unique in bowl history." White thought he had a first, matching two conference opponents in a post-season game. But LSU beat Mississippi, 21-0, in the 1960 Sugar Bowl after the two had battled to a 6-6 tie during the regular season. White said the NU-OU rematch "will be a very exciting game with a tremendous amount of appeal. A week ago, these same two teams played one of the most exciting games every played. "Everyone here seems very intrigued by it.

We have one of the largest press corps we've ever had." Osborne, asked if playing Oklahoma twice in such a short time span was too much, admitted "it's a pretty big order. I guess when you beat them one time in seven years, being asked to do it twice in a matter of weeks is asking a lot. But I guess if we can do it, it would be some accomplishment."

Iran's new prime minister, Gen.

Gholam-Reza Azhari, told the National Assembly the return of security in Iran would be accompanied by "a decisive, fast and practical campaign to weed out corruption" Most of the country was quiet as the shah appeared to have weathered the latest crisis touched off by his opponents, whose dissent is both religious and political. But observers say his government will probably be put to the test again in December, one of this Moslem nation's holiest months, when religious fervor is especially high. "The crisis peaks in December. If he makes it through Muharrem, the month of mourning, then we can safely say His Majesty has won a major victory over his religious opponents trying to drive him from power," a Western diplomat said. Muharrem reaches a high point on Ashura, Dec.
