pass and then ran for 16 yards to the Nebraska 43 Two more plays netted only two yards But on third down Douglass under heavy pressure com- pleted a 12-yard pass to Tommy Anderson to the 29 Hixon hit over his left tackle for eight yards Junior Riggins made two and Douglass sneaked for one and the first: down Douglass gained two on keeper and then fired a 12-vard pass to John Mosier on the Nebraska 4 The hall just cleared the fingertips of Marv Mueller 1 Big Reeves Block On the first down Douglass swept to his left Mike Reeves threw a block for him and he stepped into the end zone just before being forced out of bounds Bell kicked the extra point A minute and 14 seconds re-: mained in the half when the teams lined up for the kick-off Nebraska returned the ball to its 24 Two running plays gained seven yards Davis gained nine 1 and Kansas was assessed al5-i yard personal foul penalty putting the ball on the 45 Penney got behind Tommy i Ball and pulled down 42-yard pass that put the ball on the 3 The Jayhawks held against two running plays The only noteworthy development qf the third period was a 68-yarcf quick kick by Don ROCK-A-BYE Wayne Meylan middle guard hauled down Hixon from behind in the second-period touchdown drive yesterday but before he did Hixon had advanced the ball eight yards deeper into Huskerland Hixon churned to the 21 on the first-down play Five plavs later Bobby Douglass scored to give a 7-0 lead Huskers Outplayed Man for Man By Rich Sambol (The str' Soort Lawrence a disappointed Bob Devaney praised Kansas for a fine individual effort in its 10-0 upset of Nebraska and said the Jayhawks whipped the Huskers on a man-to-man basis got beat all the wav Devaney said came ready to play football and played a good game They executed their plays well offensively and tough defensively "We were probably beaten Shanklin that put the ball on the Husker 3 Kansas reached the Nebraska 31 early in the fourth period on a 7jlav drive but then was stopped The Jayhawks got a ma jor break a short time later when Patrick fumbled and Tur-geon recovered on the Nebraska 35 Once again Kansas was stopped and Shanklin punted out of bounds on the Nebraska 15 On first down Ball intercepted a pass thrown by Patrick and returned it 28 yards to the Nebraska 32 Kansas moved to a first down on the Nebraska 9 in six plays Douglass and Hixon each gained a yard but then Dongiasswas thrown for a 7-yard loss Bell attempted his field goal from the 20 It w'as high and a little wobbly but it went through With 36 seconds left the Jayhawks knew the victory belonged to them They hugged each other shouted and leaped like crazed ballet dancers They returned to the reality of football for the kirk-off and final three plays Then the celebration starts all over again point a reason for their unexpected defeat Jerry Patton starting defensive tackle said guess they just wanted the game worse than we did I just put finger on it We do have good team if we play up to capabilities but we just rise up to Wayne Meylan all-American middle guard said effort was no good When get the 'hall in scoring position like we did and score not executing very well have to bounce back next Colorado which defeated Missouri will invade Nebraska Saturday Like Devaney said bounce hack next week going to be a long USE Star Want Ads 0 buv sell rent or Dial BA 1-5500 for dirct line Star Want Ad Adv I EVERYTHING TO DRESS UP YOUR CAR iSBSSGUli GOODYEAR TIRE STORES 4318 TRUMAN RD GOES ANYWHERE DOES THE Name the Job Let Metre Bobcat Take Over!
