2-ine sioux city Sunday Journal, October 16, 1977 ISU offensive line 'super' in victory til ii.i y- 4-i M'iy1 'yS' f-x r1 i difference," Husker Coach Tom Osborne said. "They got two field goals off them." That post-game assessment was close, but actually the Cyclones got the field goal and Cummins' TD in the wake of the Nebraska bobbles. Osborne wasn't blaming it all on the turnovers. "You have to give credit to Iowa State's football team," he said. "Their offense was better than we've seen in the previous five games." Credit was precisely what Iowa State Coach Earle Bruce gave his own offense.

"Terry Rubley did a job for us today and Dexter Green ran like something else," Bruce said. "And the offensive line took it to them. Bruce said the draw play.that Green broke for a 19-yard score was something special for Nebraska. "We've had the draw play for two weeks," he said. "We were saving it for this game.

It's a good play to use with Dexter. Dexter pick? his holes well with the draw." "I didn't know if we'd ever stop them in the first half," Bruce said of the Hipp-oriented Nebraska offense. "Then our defense got together in the second quarter. They rose to the occasion. LINCOLN, Neb.

(AP) Iowa State teamwork and Nebraska turnovers produced the ISU Cyclones' impressive football upset over the No. 9 Cornhuskers Saturday, as post-game comment showed. "The offensive line did a super Job," said Terry Rubley, Iowa State quarterback. "Dexter and Cal just ran super." 1 Super also was the word for Rubley, with his passing at better than a 50 per cent completion rate, his running for one touchdown, and field generalship, as Dexter Green and Cal Cummins added a touchdown apiece. Scott Coleman's 32-yard field goal provided the winning margin in the 24-21 Big Eight football clash and the Iowa State defense shut off the part of Nebraska's offense that wasn't named I.M.Hipp.

Hipp was both a hero and a goat In the losing Nebraska effort. He scored three touchdowns and ran for 165 of the Huskers' 178 rushing yards, but also provided Iowa State with the key fumble turnover that set up Coleman's field goal in the third quarter.

"It wasn't serious," said Hayes. "He probably could have gone back in if we had needed him. When first-year coach Charlie Burns, removed the wraps from the 1977-78 edition of the Sioux City Musketeers at the auditorium Saturday night, they made what Sioux City fans' hope will be a lasting impression by outskating the Bloomington Stars 7-2.

After Mike Thomas needed only 1 22 of the first) period to put the green and gold Musketeers on top, things began to look somewhat bleak. As Coach Burns put it, "We were standing and were being outskated in the early going. We were somewhat sluggish." 1 That standing and sluggishness led to Bloomington goals by Bob Donahue and Bruce Porter and the. Stars found themselves with a 2-1 lead with just over eight minutes left in the first period. Both those Stars goals came on power plays as the Musketeers' Don Olund and Jim Peck were guilty of two minute minors and were serving time.

But the Musketeers, never saying die, used the determination of second-year man Walt Johnson and pulled into a 2-2 deadlock. That goal by Johnson was short-handed and may have proved to be the turning point in the game. And with only 23 seconds left in the period, Dave Murphy flashed the light from close in for a 3-2 count. The assist came from first-year man Bob Ferguson, his first of the night. He later contributed two goals and an assist for a four-point night.

And it was the second period that the Musketeers put it away as Ferguson struck for back-to-back goals, the first assisted by Mike Hoberg and the second unassisted to make it 5-2. Walt Johnson picked up the next goal on a Musketeer power play. Although the home leers were skating with a man advantage, Johnson refused to call on any help as he picked the puck up at center Ice and moved in to the left of the Stars' goal and fired the puck past Doug Hodges for his second goal of the night. End-to-end skating livened the final period, even though Mike Hoberg was the only Musketeer to find the Stars' net to tally the final score with just over a minute remaining ontheclock. Just prior to that, the action centered around Sioux City's Sam Nelligan and Bloomington's Jan Lasserud.

Nelligan was whistled for high sticking before the two met head-to-head. As a result, each racked up a major for fighting and redeved a one-way ticket from the ice in the form of game misconduct penalties. Besides the bright spots of Johnson and Ferguson each picking up two goals, Coach Burns had praise for goalie Dave LeGree. Coming from arch-rival Green Bay, a member of the USHL last year, LeGree turned in a very impressive goaltending performance. In the words of Burns, 'LeGree was super in the nets." The only two goals he gave up came on power play situations and held off several other Bloomington attacks.

At one point, LeGree found himself and the Musketeers two men short for over half a minute and still managed to hold the Stars at bay. Burns said, "We played heady hockey to win, but Bloomington is a good club. They will be tough all season." First: 1, Sioux City. Mike Thomas IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) -Iowa's defense was good but Ohio State quarterback Rod' Gerald was better, said Buckeye Coach Woody Hayes, and that accounted for Ohio State's 27-6 Big Ten Con-' ference football victory Saturday "Gerald gave us a super game today," said Hayes. "He was exceptional with both his running and his passing.

Hayes lost his hat to a disgruntled Iowa fan, but that has become nearly as routine as Buckeye victories here. Ohio State has beaten Iowa 13 straight times since 1962. Fifth-ranked Ohio State Is the Big Ten's rushing leader and pounded out 373 yards on the ground. Still, Hayes had' praise for the Iowa defenders. "There aren't many teams that could stop us down there on the 1-yard line or 1-foot line or whatever it was," Hayes said.

The Iowa Homecoming crowd of 60,070 fourth largest ever in Kinnick Stadium roared its approval when the Hawkeyes held Ohio State on four successive tries inside the 1-yard line. Rhoden. His homer in the sixth provided an insurance run. "Going up against left- handers, I fight the ball," said Jackson of the double. "I'm lucky to be strong enough to fight it.

He threw me a fastball inside. I didn't try to pull it, because if you do that you leave you; self open to breaking balls away. About the only Yankees player willing to keep things in perspective was left fielder Lou Piniella, who singled home Jackson with the game's first run and robbed Ron Cey of a home run with a leaping catch over the fence in the fourth. "They said Kansas City was in an unbeatable situation," Piniella said, remembering that the Yankees were down 2-1 to the Royals in the American League playoffs but won the last two games in Kansas City. "We've still got to win one more any way you put it.

We're not gonna be overconfident." But they should have been confident, the way Guidry was throwing. His only problems came in the bottom of the third when Rhoden doubled and Dave Lopes homered over the center field fence. "I knew I had a good arm and I always threw harder than the other kids," said the slender Cajiin from Louisiana. "I've developed a good breaking ball that really helps my fastball."

Simpson sinks INDIANOLA, Iowa (AP) -Steve Ehret threw touchdown passes to Kevin Thorp of 36 and 24 yards while Jim Goerss had TD runs of two and 15 yards as William Penn defeated Simpson 28-16 in Iowa Conference football action Saturday.

By The Associated Press Hunters averaged about one bird each on the opening day of South Dakota's pheasant season Saturday, provided they could drive them from cover. "I don't have too accurate a picture yet, but it looks like it's running about one bird per hunter," Clarence McDonald, conservation officer in the Mitchell area, said early Saturday evening. The biggest complaint among hunters was not so much a shortage of birds but the heavy undercover and wet "We made too many little mistakes that cost us," said Iowa Coach Bob Cummings. "A dropped pass here, an interception we couldn't come up with, mistakes in a pattern little things like that cost you against Ohio State. "Let's face it though, they're just a better team than Cummings said candidly.

Ohio State picked off three passes to increase its season total to 16 Interceptions, tops In the country. "Our defense again today was very, very, very good," said Hayes. "We really throttled them until the last." Iowa was held to just 69 yards rushing and didn't score until just over a minute remained when the Hawkeyes capitalized on an Ohio State fumble. The loss dropped Iowa to 2-1 in the Big Ten and 3-3 overall, while Ohio State, 4-1 for the season, remained in a tie for the Big Ten lead at 3-0. But Hayes was quick to dispell any thoughts that this was one of Ohio States great teams.

"We ve lost a game, member? Hayes said. re- ground. "Some groups said they went through cornfields and saw places where pheasants had been scratching, but when they went through the field they didn't see any. The biggest problem was getting the birds up," McDonald said. Pheasants a locker in Mitchell, reported it had about 200 birds around 7:30 p.m., but that hunters were Just beginning to bring in their birds.

The daily limit this year is two male pheasants per day "It seems like the hunters are pretty much filling, although there was one group of 20 men who had only 22 birds," said a spokesman at the locker. "And they are hunters that come every year, They're not they know what they're doing." Spencer Vaa of the Sioux Falls area Game, Fish and Parks office said hunters in Minnehaha County and in the Salem and Howard areas averaged about one bird. "There's no doubt that the pheasants are up. This year the cover is heavier and they're having a hard time finding the birds," Vaa said. Jack Opitz of the Watertown office said hunters with dogs or large parties had the best luck flushing the birds.

"It took a lot of hunters to get the birds out," he said. The season is 44 days long in the main pheasant belt. An Aberdeen locker reported 81 birds as of 8 p.m., compared to 50 at the same time last year. Conservation officers in the Huron area said the number of hunters was down, and that success was spotty and ranged from poor to very good. Success was reported very good in Beadle County.

Huron-area conservation officers also said a majority of the birds taken were younger birds, indicating a good spring hatch. One officer said a spot check showed that 61 of 67 birds taken in Beadle County were from this year's hatch. arm encased in a tub of ice. He was asked if he was getting his arm ready for next week or next year. "I don't think I have to worry about a seventh game," he said with a smile.

"The Dodgers said they don't want to go back to New York and we don't either," said third baseman Graig Nettles. "I think we are really going to bring it on tomorrow," said Manager Billy Martin. "We're not going to go this far and not win it all. If we get a lead tomorrow, we're going to be awful tough." Martin propped his feet up on his desk in the cramped visiting manager's office at Dodger Stadium and cradled a can of beer in his hand. He looked like the cat that had swallowed the "We shot craps in the first two games, but we're in good shape now," he said, referring to his choice of the sore-shouldered Gullett as the opening game pitcher and Catfish Hunter, for Game Two after a month's idleness.

But Guidry turned in the team's second consecutive complete game pitching performance Saturday while Reggie Jackson broke out of a post-season power shortage with a rally-starting double and a solo home run. His double, an opposite-field shot to left, touched off a three-run second inning against Doug Rau and Rick I Leach 'complete player' ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) Rick Leach was a three-dimensional quarterback Saturday in top-ranked Michigan's 56-0 Big Ten football clubbing of previously unbeated Wisconsin. He passed well, ran well and played a smart game. "You saw a great performance by a great little quarterback," said Michigan coach Bo Schembechler.

"He picked them to pieces. He can beat you with his arm. He can beat you with his legs. He can beat you with his head. He can beat you because he's a winner.

"He was a very, very good football player today. Leach threw touchdown passes of seven and 22 yards to tight ends Doug Marsh and Gene Johnson repsectively. Leach, a junior, third-year starter from Flint, also scored on a two-yard run. He often has been criticized for not passing much, but the Wolverines came out throwing and Leach wound up with his most completions ever. He hit on 10 of 16 passes for 127 yards.

"I always knew I could throw, even though some people don't think so," Leach said. always had confidence in my passing game. The reason the coach had us throw early was because they were coming up to stop our option and that left their defensive backfield open." Wisconsin coach John Jardine said, "Leach was throwing the ball good, especially against man-toman (coverage);" Another Michigan standout in the Wolverines' first shutout of the year and the first suffered by Wisconsin in two years was substitute tailback Roosevelt Smith. "No, I haven't been playing in Huck's shadow," Smith said, referring to Harlan Huckleby, who Smith replaced. Huckleby, the Big Ten's leading rusher with 112 yards per game, was out with a leg injury but is expected back for next Saturday's game at Minnesota.

Smith and Huckleby played left and right halfback respectively for Cass Tech High School in Detroit four years ago. Smith scored pair of touchdowns on two-yard runs and ground out 157 yards in 25 carries. "If you really want to know, the line did it for me," he said. "They opened huge holes today." "Rose (Smith) did a good job in i his first start," Schembechler said. "He came here and got hurt as a freshman last year and didn't play, but he's done a great job.

He started fourth team this year and worked his way up. It's great to see a young guy like that come through when the pressure is on. LOS ANGELES (AP) -Although millions of words have been penned about them this season, the New York Yankees aren't really up on their Shakespeare. But after beating the Los Angeles Dodgers 4-2 Saturday and taking a commanding 3-1 lead in the 1977 World Series, they would appreciate the line from Macbeth that "tomorrow and tommorrow and tomorrow creeps in this petty pace from day to day." The Yankees couldn't wait until tomorrow Sunday when they have a chance to clinch the 21st world championship in the club's storied history, but Its first in 15 years. "Look at the guys In here," said Don Gullett, Sunday's starting pitcher, sweeping his arm around the clubhouse." All they're saying is tomorrow." Ron Guidry, who hurled a strong four-hitter Saturday, sat in the center of the clubhouse, his valuable left Lasorda loses gamble LOS ANGELES (AP) Rookie Manager Tommy Lasorda of the Los Angeles Dodgers took a gambler's calculated risk Saturday and lost.

"With all their left-handed power, I thought it would be best to start Doug Rau," said Lasorda of the southpaw pitcher who had not started a game since Sept. "We also thought Don Sutton could use an extra day's rest," added Lasorda. Rau, who injured his shoulder pitching batting practice on the final day of the season Oct. 2, had worked just briefly in relief in the National League playoffs. But Lasorda gambled that Rau could bring the Dodgers even in the World Series against the.

New York Yankees. Instead, Rau lasted just over one inning, as the Yankees beat the Dodgers 4-2 and took a commanding 3-1 lead in the best-of-seven series. "We knew Rau had the shoulder problem and we weren't going to go too long with him," said Lasorda. Rau got out of the first inning with the help of a double play, but left in the second after giving up a double to Reggie Jackson, a single to Lou Plniella and a double to Chris Chambliss. "I wanted to stay in," Rau said.

"I felt fine, but I'm not the one to say the decision was wrong. (Reliever Rick) Rhoden pitched fine. I thought I could pitch as well as anyone today. I might not have been too effective because I was still a little leery of the shoulder." Rau said Lasorda gave him no time to argue his case on the mound. "When he comes out and doesn't say anything, you know you're gone," Rau said.

Mankato wallops Westmar LE MARS, Iowa Mankato State's Ricky Garrison rushed for three touchdowns Saturday, helping the Indians scalp Westmar, 33-6. Garrison scored the game's first three TDs as Mankato jumped into a 19-0 halftime advantage. His scoring runs came from the five, three and two-yard lines. The Eagles' only points came in the third quarter on a two-yard dive by Dennis Gonnerman but the two-point run attempt failed and the visitors controled the rest of the way, scoring on a 12-yard option by quarterback Kal Kallenberger and a seven-yard pitch from Kallenberger to Bob Fleming. Westmar, now 2-5 on the season, trailed only 21-18 In first downs but was out-rushed 309-139 while completing only five of 21 passes for 21 yards.
