5-11 183 Sr. Both teams enter the game with 4-1 records on the current campaign. Both won opening league tests last weekend. Nebraska topped Kansas State, 26-9, while Iowa State blanked Missouri, 7-0. Both Osborne and Bruce are in their fifth year as a head coach in the conference.

If there is a difference berween the two, it's in the medical report. Iowa State enters the game in a healthy condition. Though quarterback Mike Tryon was lost for the season in the opening game, Terry Rubley, a redshiri sophomore, has matured quickly and is now reaching top form. He's completed 21 of his last 36 passes and has the Cyclone offense moving. On the other hand, Nebraska linebacker and co-captain Jeff Carpenter is hospitalized with an elbow infection and starting defensive safety Larry Valasek is hampered by muscle spasms in his back and may not be able to play.

"We face the job of trying to stop a fine offensive team," Bruce says of the Huskers. "They are a complete team and you have to defend against everything. Nebraska is a steady team and they have excellent coaching. It's going to be a matter of us playing a superb football game and hanging in there and seeing if we can't stay with them long enough to win." any room in its section for the ISU band. Osborne doesn't expect the Nebraska fans to make noise when Iowa State is calling signals.

"Our fans are enthusiastic, but they are courteous," he says. "I don't think it's good for college football to incite the crowd." Osborne does feel his team "will have to play well in every department if we hope to win. Iowa State probably has the best defense in the Big Eight." The Husker head man especially points to the middle of the Cyclone defensive line where nose guard Ron McFarland (6-1, 256) and tackles Mike Stensrud (6-4, 265) and Tom Randall (6-6, 251) hold fort. That trio, which has 10 years of starting experience at the college level among them, spearheads a defense which has allowed an average of just 114 yards rushing this season. Nebraska, on the other hand, is among the nation's leaders, averaging 300 yards a game on the ground.

Something is obviously going to have to give. The game will feature two of the league's premier running backs in Nebraska's Isaiah Hipp, who has gained 254 and 207 in his last two outings, including jaunts of 66, 73 and 82 yards, and Iowa State's Dexter Green, the leading scoring in the Big Eight.

172 6-0 Schwartz 26 By Virgil Parker Sporti Editor There was some controversy and hard feelings following last year's Nebraska-Iowa State football game in Ames. But it was nothing compared to the strained' relations which cameafter the 1907 contest. At least the two sides agreed on who won the game. To this day, the official Nebraska and Iowa State record books disagree on the outcome of the 1907 matchup between the two schools. The only thing they agree on is that the Cornhuskers scored 10 points.

Nebraska says it won the game, 10-9. The Cyclone records show the final score was 13-10, in favor of Iowa State. As a result, Nebraska says the overall record between the two schools, which dates back to 1896, stands at 57-12-2 in favor of the Huskers. Iowa State claims it should read, 56-13-2. Everyone agrees last year's final score favored Iowa State, 37-28.

It was a stunning upset, In front of the largest crowd (50,781) in Iowa State football history. The controversy which followed involved that partisan Cyclone crowd.

Iowa State chose to sell its allotment of tickets for Saturday's game to fans and failed to set aside graduated from high school with a 3.7 grade average on a 4.0 scale, says practice sessions in his native country "are funny compared to here. We do so much more running here. Things are so much more intense.

But coming to the United States will help me a lot in becoming a better player. I feel I'll now have a good chance of making the national team for the Olympics in Russia. "I don't worry about personal goals," he adds. "I just want to work as hard as I can, learn what I'm doing wrong and try to correct those errors. The only important thing is that our team plays well.

There are a lot of technical things to learn. In Yugoslavia, you are allowed an extra step. I get called for traveling a lot here." "He has an opportunity to be an excellent player for us in time," Cipriano says of his long-distance recruit. "It will depend on how quickly he picks up the American style. They play a very strong, physical game in Europe.

They don't call many fouls. But he's very coachable and eager to learn and improve When he got here he could only do three pushups. Now he can do 50. That shows what our weight training program has done for him this fall." Cipriano, while impressed with all his new talent, has six lettermen including three returning starters around which to build his current club. Guard Brian Banks, center Carl McPipe and forward Terry Novak, all two-year lettermen, are the returning regulars.

Center-forward Curt Hedberg is also a two-award winner, while forward Mark McVicker and guard James Caldwell lettered for the first time last winter. The Huskers have the most attractive home schedule ever. Fifteen games, including eight of the first nine, will be played in the Sports Center arena. "We have great squad attitude," Cipriano reports. "We have plenty of stiff competition lined up with teams like Creighton, Minnesota, Nevada and Mississippi on the schedule.

But, as we work at welding our people together as a unit, we have the advantage of doing that at home." Practice officially begins Saturday, with the first game seven weeks hence.

The Cyclone has a super defense against the run. Two things could give the Huskers a more comfortable margin of victory a better passing game than they've shown in recent weeks, and the revenge angle.

Most Husker players are still smarting from last year's loss in Ames. Oklahoma 42, Missouri 7 Pity the poor Tigers. Oklahoma is coming off its first and only loss to a non-conference team since Barry Switzer became the Sooner coach. They'll be out to rebound big from the narrow loss to Texas and the drastic drop they took in the national polls. Missouri and coach Al Onof rio stand 1-4 on the jear.

Both are in trouble. Colorado 35, Kansas 14 It may be even closer than that. Colorado is a solid choice, but the Buffs could be a little flat while looking ahead to next week's biggie against the Huskers here in Lincoln. Oklahoma State 17, Kansas State 14 If this was being played in Manhattan I'd pick it the other way. The Wildcats played Nebraska tough.

They're going to win a conference game or two this fall. This might be one of them. But Stillwater is a lot to overcome. It's bad enough to just have to go there, let alone be expected to play well once you arrive. Some other big games around the country.

TV lucks out for the fourth straight week. After the Nebraska-Alabama, Oklahoma-Ohio State and USC-Alabama thrillers, the tube gets the Texas-Arkansas game this week. In a pick from the heart, not the head, I'll take Arkansas in an upset. Reasons? The game's in Fayetteville; it'll be tough for Texas to be sky-high two weeks in a row; and for Monte Kiffin's sake.

The Huskers audible (change to a play different that the one called in the huddle if the quarterback spots a defensive weakness after the teams come to the line of scrimmage) more than most teams. Nebraska head coach Tom Osborne said the crowd noise and a Cyclone band which seemingly played they ISU fight song whenever Nebraska had the ball, kept Nebraska from effectively calling audibles. "I remember several plays where I ran the wrong way because an audible had been called and I didn't hear it," Husker fullback Monte Anthony recalls.

"I don't blame the loss on the noise," Husker head man Osborne now says. "They just outplayed us. It was the most disappointing game of the season for me. The loss to Oklahoma was also disappointing. But we played well against Oklahoma and were just unfortunate.

Against Iowa State we played poorly." The crowd will be bigger Saturday when the two teams resume their rivalry. A 92nd straight sellout of 76,000 fans will jam Nebraska's Memorial Stadium. But the partisan Big Red boosters will likely quiet down whenever Husker STAFF PHOTO BY HARALD OREIWANIS month, was rocked by three home runs in the first three innings, causing the Yankees to be out of the game before they were it. "If you hadn't pitched in a month, what do you think the problem would be?" Jackson told assembled newsmen, after the game. "How do you send a man in to pitch the world series when he hasn't pitched in over a month?" Martin, who had to be restrained from punching out Jackson in the Yankee dugout during a nationally televised midseason game with the Boston Red Sox, was visibly and vocally incensed when informed of the latest remarks from his outspoken $3 million outfielder.

"It seems to me he (Jackson) has got enough problems trying to play right field than to be second-guessing the manager," fired back Martin. "A true Yankee doesn't criticize another Yankee or another Yankee manager. If I'm gon-' na back that bleep, why doesn't he back me? What do we have here, a one-way street? "We're all pulling together to try and win this thing for the Yankees," Martin added, forcing a smile. "Did I say that right? Well if he doesn't like it, he can kiss my behind." There was also speculation that Jackson, who was benched by Martin in the final game of the American League Playoffs with Kansas City because of his inability to hit left-hander Paul Split torff, might also be kept out of Friday's lineup against John, Baseball scrimmage set 'for Saturday The Nebraska baseball team will hold its Red-White scrimmage Saturday at 10 a.m. on the Husker diamond.

Admission for the contest is free. By Virgil Parker Sports Editor Major college basketball coaches search the entire country for the best possible talent. When Nebraska's Joe Cipriano gathered his current Cornhusker squad at the Sports Center Thursday afternoon for the annual Photo Day festivities, six freshmen and two new junior college transfers were among the 15 prospects on hand. One was from North Carolina. Others came to the Lincoln campus from Arizona, Chicago and California.

Then there was Srebrenko Despot. He's from Zagreb in Yugoslavia. The 6-8, 210-pound Despot is. called "Sil" by his teammates. "My name, Srebrenko," he explains, "translates to Silvester in the English language." How did "Sil" find his way from Yugoslavia to Nebraska? "The former head coach at BYU," Despot says, speaking of Glenn Potter, who was also a Cipriano assistant at Nebraska from 1963-70, "had an ail-American at BYU from Yugoslavia (Kresimir Cosmic).

They are still good friends." Cosmic coaches a town team in Yugoslavia. He asked Potter to come over to help. During the season, Potter saw Despot in action and was impressed. He touted the youngster on Nebraska. "The high schools and universities are only for education in my country," Sil explains.

"There are no sports in the schools. Everything is town teams. They are usually sponsored by the biggest company in the town. They have junior youth teams for the kids starting at about age 10, then junior teams and finally the main town team. "The country of Yugoslavia is about the same size as the state of Nebraska," Despot continues.

"There are 14 town teams from throughout the country which form the top league. The junior and junior youth teams play lots of games, too, but with smaller towns closer to home." Despot says a talented player can make the town's top team while still in his teens, but many of the players are active until they are 25 to 30 years of age. "I also knew of Nebraska because of Chuck Jura," Despot adds. Jura, a former Husker, plays for a town team in Italy. "I played against him in a summer tournament," Sil says.

"Jura is Italy's best rebounder, best scorer and one of country's best paid players. Italy always has strong teams because they have two or three imported American players." Yugoslavia, however, won the European championship for the first time in 1970, defeating Spain in the finals, then captured the title again two years ago and last season, both times beating Russia for the down. Despot, an excellent student who Yugoslavian recruit Srebrenko Despot talks with Sports Editor Virgil Parker during Nebraska basketball photo day. Yankees continue discordant ways First woman makes appearance Los Angeles (UPI) The New York Yankees, a team which has thrived on adversity all season long, will attempt to shrug off the latest rift between manager Billy Martin and right fielder Reggie' Jackson, sending right-hander Mike Torrez to the mound against Southpaw Tommy John today in the third game of the world series. The Martin-Jackson fued, which has simmered from hot to lukewarm throughout the year, rose to the boiling point again Thursday after some critical remarks the right fielder made of the Yankee manager's decision to pitch "Catfish" Hunter in game 2, won 6-1 by the Dodgers.

Saturday By Tom Vint Outdoor Editor Burwell's Shirley Meckel Friday became the first woman ever to sit in on a Nebraska Game and Parks Commission board meeting as commissioners took on sport fishing, boating and snow-mobiling regulations and changes.

Mrs. Meckel was appointed by Gov. J. J. Exon to replace Loup City's Ken Zimmerman to the five-year post of commissioner.

Friday's regular October meeting marked her first official appearance on the seven-member board. Regulation changes passed included boating regulations calling for Arthur Bay on Lake McConaughy to be added to that lake's five mph no-wake boating limits. Increased usage of the area is creating a safety hazard due to speed boating, according to Dale Bree, assistant director in charge of parks. Operation of snowmobiles will be permitted on specified frozen lakes. The commission had worried about a liability problem but it was revealed as essentially nonexistent in a legal opinion.

Fishing changes provided for jug fishing on Lewis and Clark Lake in matching a South Dakota regulation of similar nature. The commissioners also noted paddlefish snagging below Gavins Point Dam will be changed to prohibit continued snagging after the two-fish limit has been reached. Bass size limits were removed from western Nebraska's Walgren Lake and from three of the ponds on Fort Robinson State Park. The limit was removed due to abundance of undersized fish in the lakes and ponds. Finally in fishing regulation changes, the addition of Upper Dugout Creek, Indian Creek, Silvernail Drain and Cedar Creek was made to streams where dip nets are prohibited to protect trout.

The commissioners then okayed the acquisition of 154 acres of land two miles south of Genoa, 120 acres l'i miles south of Cowles and permission to bid on another 191-acre tract two miles west of South Bend for wildlife purposes. A $59,700 gift was made by the Omaha World-Herald Foundation to construct an audio-visual auditorium for the Ak-Sar-Ben aquarium complex on the Schramm Tract near Gretna. The donation will help make the facility one of the best visitor Centers in the country, according to Commission director Gene Mahoney, Also Friday morning, the commissioners set the November meeting for public hearings dealing with commercial fishing regulations on the Missouri River and in setting the recommendations for implementation of the park user fee as provided by LB81 last year. ffifydE Friday.
