The only time it was even touched was when a careless pop salesman hit it with his tray and put It slightly askew. The woman who sat directly behind me said She was from Council Bluffs. The teen-aged girl beside her, apparently her daughter, smiled when I cheered the Cyclones' arrival on the field. "We're, from Iowa, but we're for Nebraska," the girl said. "You're all alone."
