Flo Jo still shined 24-karat, but the Games were a big gold heist for Roy Jones. The head of the International Amateur Boxing Association said it looked like Jones had beaten his South Korean opponent, but three of five judges saw it otherwise. "I thought I had beaten him to a point where I couldn't be robbed," have such prejudice against Korea.

NBC, however, reported that the Korean TV station KBS was flooded with calls from Koreans complaining that they were embarrassed by the decision. And the Korean news agency Yonhap reported that Koreans booed the decision along with Americans at the boxing arena. Jones, 19, the youngest of the U.S. boxers, controlled everything but the decision. He scored at will and totally dominated Korean opponent Park Si-hun, but he lost 3-2 in the 156-pound gold medal final at the Seoul Olympics.

It was a dim note to a Games that almost ended with a glow for America when Florence Griffith Joyner added another gold and silver on Saturday to her record setting Games. Anwar Chowdhry of Pakistan, president of AIBA, told NBC he thought the decision was unfair, adding: "Unfortunately, in boxing we have been having bad decisions in every international tournament." He then revealed that AIBA had picked Jones as the outstanding boxer of the tournament. Adams said he saw a Korean offer gold to some of the judges for the Jones fight, and he said he reported it to U.S. officials. "I saw somebody show some gold SEELOUGANIS continued on page D6 No.

9 Cornhuskers post Olympics Jones said. "Unfortunately, I was." Boxing coach Ken Adams said he saw a Korean trying to bribe some of the judges for the fight. But a press spokesman for the Korean boxing federation said what Adams saw were gold key chains being offered as gifts to all the officials. Thus, the Olympic boxing tourna out and play to our potential and not wait to see what the other team's going to do." Clark picked up the Huskers' first touchdown on a two-yard run with 2 06 left in the first quarter. Nebraska's Mike Croel then blocked a Tony Rhynes' punt and Husker Cartier Walker picked it up, racing 34 yards for the Huskers' second score early in the second quarter.

"That was probably the biggest play of the game in my opinion," UNLV Coach Wayne Nunnery said. "That gave them a quick six points and that hurt us because it gave them the momentum back." A 20-yard Terry Rodgers' TD run less than four minutes later put Nebraska up 20-0 at the half. 'Clark added two third-quarter scores, the first on a five-yard run after Willie Griffin recovered a UNLV fumble at the 5. Clark added the second TD of the period with 9:05 remaining on a one-yard dive after quarterback Steve Taylor's 26-yard run took the ball to the 3. UNLV avoided the shutout on Jim Cook's 53-yard field goal early in the fourth quarter.

The kick tied Cook's school record for distance set a week ago against Ohio University. He broke that mark nearly seven minutes later with a 54-yarder. Backup fullback Bryan Carpenter added another Nebraska score on a 27-yard run with 9:58 to play, and Scott Baldwin capped Nebraska's scoring with a two-yard TD run with UNLV fmS M. jiS TSifr' ullUi.mHliUNli'M'i-'y "2JL 'til taMMrfirir rf i cit5 1 1 Ky.

The head of the Korean Amateur Boxing Federation, Kim Seung-youn, resigned Sunday, accepting responsibility for a brawl that Korean coaches started in the Games' first week when a they attacked a referee over a close decision against one of theirs. "Today's decision is very, very fair," Kim said Sunday. "There is no scandal today. It cannot happen. I cannot understand whv foreigners 48-6 2:37 left.

The Huskers, who had 178 yards rushing by halftime, rolled up 444 for the game while using 16 ball carriers. Those yards went with only 56 yards passing as Taylor hit 6 of 10 aerials. Nebraska's defense held UNLV to 120 passing yards and 58 on the ground for the game. "Nebraska has a great football program and we're not ready to play this caliber of football every week," Nunnely said. On a 17-yard second-half gain, Nebraska fullback Tyreese Knox became the 31st Husker to rush for 1,000 yards in his career.

But Osborne said it wasn't pretty for the most part. "We played well enough to win," he said as his team went to 4-1 for the season, dropping UNLV to 1-3. "I was not too happy with the offense. (At halftime) I just told them what they did, which was not much." He said his players lacked the polished performance he wished to see before heading to Kansas in the Big Eight Conference opener next Saturday. "I feel our players lacked the intensity and concentration we were looking for," Osborne said.

"I do know that UNLV had some players who came ready to play. "It's just so hard when all week long all you hear is this team doesn't have a chance. I think we went out there and played a little bit like we were going to play our scout team, and those guys came to play." Despite Ken Clark's three-touchdown effort, Nebraska sputtered with eight penalties for 60 yards and converted nine of 16 third-down plays against a team the Huskers were expected to dominate. "We don't take any team lightly," Clark said. "We don't slack off for any team but we've really got to go Hawks, Spartans tie, 10-all EAST LANSING, Mich.

(AP) -Iowa and Michigan State tried as hard as they could to give away their Big Ten opener, but just couldn't find any takers. Michigan State's John Langeloh sent a 45-yard field goal try wide to the right with 16 seconds left and Iowa's Jeff Skillett did the same with a 51-yarder with seven seconds left, forcing the Big Ten foes to settle for a 10-10 tie Saturday. It was the third miss for each kicker in a game played in intermittent showers.

"The field goal we tried was a good, solid kick, but it missed by a few inches.

Theirs didn't miss by much either," added Michigan State Coach George Perles. "They played hard on defense. We played hard on defense. It's just like the score indicates." The tie left Iowa 2-2-1 overall and Michigan State, the defending Big Ten champ, dropped to 0-3-1. Iowa had evened the score 10-10 late in the third quarter when Tony Stewart and Jon Filloon combined on a five-yard TD halfback option pass.

In the final quarter, Michigan State put together an eight-play drive that covered only 29 yards but consumed 3:12 off the clock. But Langeloh's 45-yard field goal try went wide right with 16 seconds left.

The 37-year-old Harvey, N.D., native, who was a Morningside assistant in 1980 during the Chiefs' lone season under Lyle Eidsness, is in his second year at the NDSU helm. "I feel bad for Morningside," said Hager. "Any time you coach somewhere, a part of you stays there. Morningside's a quality place and I really liked the people here. I'm sure if we'd faced a healthy Morningside tonight, it would have been a different story." Hager and his staff were somewhat restricted in the matter of mercy, considering the 48-man traveling squad limitation imposed by the North Central Conference.

The Bison, who left two injured quarterbacks at home, brought only starter Chris Simdorn and his backup, former starter Brian Owen, a senior. Simdorn, a fleet-footed sophomore out of Minneapolis Roosevelt, kept the ball 16 times and rushed for 157 yards and four touchdowns. Halfback Tony Satter, another sophomore, picked up 156 yards in just five carries, including touchdown breakaways of 74 and 71 yards before the game was eight minutes old. Three other NDSU ball carriers rushed for 61 yards or better, including Owen, who also went 4-for-4 passing and connected with Len Kretchman on a screen pass that went 78 yards for a score. "I don't have any problem with it at all," said Morningside's Mondt, declining any resentment over the lopsided score.

Mondt, however, wasn't convinced the visitors, ranked No. 1 in the Bekr Shrine NCAA Division 62-7. (Staff photo By Terry Hersom Journal sports editor The strongest program in NCAA Division II football looked stronger than ever Saturday night at Roberts Stadium. North Dakota State, the Division II national champion three times in the last five years, flexed its muscles before a Shrine Game crowd of 3,475, thrashing winless Morningside, 62-7. With all the great performances in NDSU grid annals, this one exceeded them all in two fundamental statistical categories.

The Bison, who tallied six of their nine touchdown on scoring plays of 30 yards or better, rolled up 756 yards in total offense to shatter an 11-year-old school record of 703. As always, the powerful offensive display showcased a relentless ground game. And Saturday's 575 rushing yards knocked out another school mark, this one a 10-year-old standard of 563. Neither development was particularly shocking for an injury riddled Morningside squad, which sagged to 0-5 and will remain an underdog throughout each of six remaining games. The Chiefs have been trampled by the Bison many times before, including a 63-0 shellacking here two seasons ago just one year after tying NDSU 18-18 at Fargo.

Moreover, the standards erased by Coach Rocky Hager's troops wiped out two more gigantic nights which were also at Morningside's expense. The total offense record came in a 65-6 rout here in 1977 and the rushing mark stemmed from a 56-7 verdict the following year in Fargo. NCAA Division II poll, weren't thoroughly intent on winning big. "They're going to beat us worse than UND did, I know that," said Mondt, referring to NDSU's archrival, the University of North Dakota. "That's one of their rules." Mondt is in his sixth season at Morningside after a seven-year stint on the UND staff.

The Lancers, the USHL have-not, handed Sioux City, one of the league's "haves" for several seasons, a 3-2 setback in a regular-season opener for both teams before 610 fans at Hitchcock Arena. Coach Bob Ferguson's Musketeers were making a rare regular-season debut on the road.

The Musketeers had opened the season on home ice since at least the 1977-78 season. Omaha went winless in 48 league games two seasons ago and won just four times last season. The Musketeers, who divided a pair of pre-season games with Omaha, were limited to only 21 shots in the opener. In nine pre-season games, eight of them losses, the Musketeers also lacked firepower. "Unfortunately, it looks like my concern about lack of offense was demonstrated against Omaha," said Ferguson.
