6-2 196 Jim Grechus fore the first seliout crowd to watch a game here in several years. The subject of the post-game conference could be the Big rule limiting traveling squads to 40 players. In defeating Iowa State, 44-0, and Wisconsin, 37-0, in the past two weeks, Husker coach Bob Devaney has dipped as far into his reserve barrel as possible. He be able to do this against the Wildcats, a factor that could send the score soaring against the out- manned K-Staters. By reducing his squad to 40 players.

Devaney will be able to put only one back on the field who has gained less than 3.5 yards per play. And he can find only two who have gained less than 4.7 yards per play. Two players both on offense and defense likely will have to go all the way with their units also. Guard LaVerne Allers and tackle Dwain Carlson have no one hind them on offense and linebacker Lynn Senkbeil and halfback Kaye Carstens face tbe same situation on defense. And the Wildcats likely to gel much relief when the No.

2 right end takes the field to replace Jerry Patton. He's Tony Jeter, who starred on defense for the Huskers as a sophomore two years ago. When Devaney sends his No. 2 backfield onto the field, the Wildcats will be asked to stop quarterback Bob Churchich who is averaging 4.7 per play, fullback Charlie Winters with 4.7. right halfback Ben Gregory 6.1 and left halfback Ken Brunk 2.1.

The leader in Kansas hopes of stopping the lltiskers is All-Big Eight defensive end Bill Matan, but he is leading a Wildcat defense that is asked to stop the top rushing team with 303.8 yards per game in four previous wins this season. The Huskers also rank third in total offense with 422 yards per game. Missouri moved through the Wildcat line well enough last week to take over second place in national rushing figures with 297.3 yards per game. chief offensive weapon is sophomore quarterback Vic Castillo, who ranks 15th nationally in passing with 46 completions for 548 yards. Kansas State came up with a new offense against Missouri in last 28-6 loss and will continue to run from the I Formation against the Huskers.

Both squads have injury problems with Nebraska leaving home its top two defensive ends, Langston Coleman and Mike Grace, plus offensive left halfback Ron Kirkland, Kansas State has defensive end and placekicker Jerry Cook on the sidelines and tackle Willie Jones is a doubtful performer. 70 Dick Czap 69 Mike Kennedy 52 Jerry Murphy 63 Lyno Senkbeil 77 Walt Barnes 81 Mike Grace 36 Larry Wachholtz 21 Kaye Carstens 30 Marv Mueller 28 Bill Johnson Average weight: No. 84 75 54 69 50 88 30 45 43 Lincoln High Nips Knights, 12-6.

The rugged play became apparent late in the game when the ball exchanged hands seven times in the final eight minutes. And six of the exchanges were pass interceptions or fumbles. But by that time it was too late for Southeast to start a rally and the Knights fell, 12-6, to their cross-town rival Links. Coach Andy LHS eleven scored a TD in each of the first two periods and held on to run the season mark to 4-1-1. Actually, possession of the ball late in the game proved very little because the Knights were always in poor field position within their own 30-yard line.

Lincoln High wasted little time getting to paydirt. Mike Delaney put SE in a big hole when he punted for LHS and the ball went out of bounds at the three. The Knights were forced to return the punt moments later and Lincoln High was at the SE 34. The Links were pushed back to the 49 by a 15-yard penalty. But on the next play senior Charles Garrett exploded for a 41-yard run to the eight.

After several misfires, quarterback Reuben Worster went over from the five on a keeper play over his right guard. Early in the second period the Links struck again and this time covered 80 yards in only five plays which had the Knights reeling. Steve Henneman took a Worster pass which covered 30 yards and then Jim Riggins rambled 35 for the TD after getting a great block from King. Lincoln High saw an on-side second half kickoff backfire which put the Knights on the scoreboard. The Knights wound up with the pigskin on the Lincoln High 39 after the short kick and a roughing penalty.

After two running plays produced short yardage, Southeast quarterback Tom Kos arched a perfect 33-yard scoring strike to Jon Roberts. That ended the scoring for the night although Lincoln High had one other golden opportunity. The Links drove from the SE 44 to the six, but Worster fumbled the ball and Knight Paul Benson pounced on it to halt the maneuver. Roberts was a busy performer for SE as was Jack Galusha for the winners. Statistics LHS First 10 Yards rushing 81 156 Yards pa.ssing 94 104 Pas.ses 7-9 Passes Int.

Schooling Brings Franz To Lincoln MOVE NETS IMPROVING SPLIT END FOR COMETS Creighton Prep Stops Pius, 20-13 DRAW PLAY WINS FOR JUNIOR JAYS By BARRY BURKHART Star Sports Writer Omaha Creighton Prep roared from behind in the fourth quarter on the brillipnt passing of senior quarterback Mike Panze to defeat No. 2 ranked Lincoln Pius 20-13, at Pius Field Friday night. With Creighton trailing 13-6, Danze completed four of five passes in the final period for 53 yards. One of the passes was good for the tying touchdown.

The first time the Junior Blue Jays got the ball in the fourth quarter, they began a sustained march from their own 35 to the Pius 11, in 11 plays, and on the next play from scrimmage, Danze faded back, found end Ted Scholtz hit him with a touchdown pass. The extra point kick by Jim Bosiljevac tied the game and fired up the Creighton players. After an unsuccessful onside kick attempt, a eyed Prep defensive line caused Pius fullback Kim Wheeler to fumble on the first play from scrimmage and recovered the ball on the Pius 42 yard line. After halfback Gary Roberts had picked up three yards on a run and Pius had been penalized 15 yards for pets interference, fullback Phil Bruning took to the out- siie on a draw play and went 24 yards for the winning TD. extra point put, the game out of the reach.

After winning the toss of the coin, Pius looked like it was going to waste no time getting far ahead, marching 76 yards on the first series of downs for the first touchdown. The march was climaxed by quarterback John 16-yard touchdown on a quarterback option and was concluded by Bill Rier- extra point kick. Defenseman, Forward Sign With Rangers Kingston, Ont. man Jim Neilson and forward John Brenneman signed contracts Friday with the New! York Rangers of the Nation-! al Hockey League. Neilson, beginning his fourth season with the Rangers, recorded 12 assists in 1964-65.

Brenneman, a second- year left wing who came to New York in a trade with Chicago last winter, had four goals and three assists for seven points. Lynn To Miss Game Columbia, Mo. Defensive end Tom Lynn, who has an injured knee in a cast, appears to be definitely out of game with UCLA here, Missouri coach Dan Devine said. Reserve quarter- i thermore, Danze hit 11 of 16 back Gary Kombrink, nurs-1 short ing an old heel injury, re- lor 122 yards while Pius could mains on the doubtful list only 36 yards in the The second time the Thunderbolts got the ball, however, Prep made it evident that it was going to be no pushover. Using a seven man line, the Junior Jays thwarted the highly regarded Pius running attack and caused the Thunderbolts to kick.

Getting the ball, Prep immediately took to the air as Danze hit Bosiljevac on a 19 yard pass play, taking the ball to the Pius 43. After running two plays to no avail, Danze took to the air again, hitting Holtz for a nine yard gain and a first down as the first quarter ended. On the first play of the second period, Roberts skirted the left end for first touchdown. The extra point attempt by Bosiljevac failed. Pius took the ball from its own 39 after the kickoff to the Creighton one yard line in 13 plays where Wheeler crashed into the end zone to put Pius further ahead.

But so have some lofty ambitions. They leave State College of Iowa without a star halfback Lincoln Comets with an improving split end.

But I had some friends going out, so I thought give it a worked out nicely for the Comets, too. Franz is turning in sparkling play lately, making an average of four pass receptions a game. It was in the first Des Moines game, the third of the season, that Franz got going. He took two Doug Tucker passes in for touchdowns, the only two for the Comets in a 20-16 loss. And it was against an old friend.
