But Wisconsin coach Milt Bruhn came up with a turning point in his team's 37-0 loss to Nebraska at Memorial Stadium that may be something of a record because it came just about four minutes into the game. The play came w'hen Tom Brigham fumbled a punt on the Badger 31 and Husker Dennis Carlson promptly pounced on it. The Huskers were in the end zone five plays later with 10:20 left in the first quarter. “That was the turning point," Bruhn said with his tongue heading for his c’heek. “You can’t give a team like Nebraska a break. We gave them three or four early in the game," he said. Bruhn dipped into his bag of compliments and shuffled them around to the Huskers —nearly all the Huskers "They have a lot of depth and a lot of strength," Bruhn said. "They did everything well. They just did everything better than we did." Bruhn. whose teams hadn’t lost to a Big Eight team before Saturday, allowed Uiat he could see loads of improvement in the Huskers. just since the .Air F’orce game two weeks ago, “Everything has come a long ways since Nebraska played .Air Force," Bruhn said. "After watching those films, I can see lots of development." Milt, who usually manages a smile no matter what the situation and did Saturday too. picked out Nebraska’s Frank Solich. F'red Duda and Freeman White as football players that would "star playing against any team." “That 44 (Charlie Winters) and 22 (Ben Gregory) are real fine football players too." Bruhn said. "And those third and fourth stringers wanted to get in there and show what they could do too. Bruhn didn’t single any Badgers out for excellence and noted "I felt our end play fell down a little bit. They killed us on the option play. "In the second half, we never had field position," Bruhn said. Duda finds a wide avenue at midfield and cuts sharply behind blockers \Choo-Choo Chugsl \ln With The Maill HjiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiimiiiiiitiiiiiiittiiiiiiMitiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiitiiiiiiiiiMiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii| I ISIJ-WIJ Statistics I illtlllllllflllilllliiilllllllllllMlllllillllllllltlllllllltllllllllllllilltllltlllllllllllllllllllliilllllllliMillllllliltlllllli NEHRVSKA RUSHING k Charlie (Choo-Choo) Winters chugs across from the one-yard line for fourth Nebraska touchdown. Haug to Have Knee Surgery Nebraska’s defensive end corps, one of the Husker strong points early in the season, are shrinking rapidly. The top three Husker defensive ends — Langston Coleman. Mike Grace and Bill Haug — are now on the injury list and Haug likely Is lost for the season. Haug, injured early in the game, will undergo surgery for torn knee ligaments and team doctors said he probably would be lost for the remainder of the season. . . .

Nebraska athletic director Tippy Dye said that since the north addition had been added exits had been clogged up but with part of the wall out, the problem is expected to be alleviated. PlayerAtt.

Wachholtz didn’t miss the conversion this time and it was 24-0 with 4:39 to go in the quarter. .A couple minutes later Wachholtz again got the Huskers in gear with another of his patented returns, this one for 55 yards all the way to the Wisconsin 11. The North Platte junior rode behind the terrific blocks of Ivan Zimmer, Czap and John .Strohmyer. It took just two plays as the Bob Churchich guided second unit bombed in behind sophomore Charlie Winters. Winters bruised his way for 10, then one to score and Wachholtz converted. After being halted at the Wisconsin five early in the fourth quarter, it looked like the Huskers, who were finishing up with reserves, had put up the scoring togs, but not so. Len Janik grabbed a fumble by Burt at the Wisconsin 31 and this time it was Gregory who personally took charge. He carried three times for 15. 3 and 13 yards and it was 37-0.
