Tie Proves NU, Trojans in Elite By Associated Press Southern California and Nebraska settle very much with their 21-21 tie in Los Angeles Saturday night except that a tie is better than losing and that twth teams are among the football elite. So, for that matter, is Texas as if anyone except Coach Darrell Royal ever doubted it. The Longhorns, national champions a year ago but running second this season to Ohio State, which played yet, opened with a 56-15 rout of California. The rest of The Associated Top Cal is third, Nebraska through unscathed. Stanford, rated fourth, walloped San Jose State 34-3 and fifth-ranked Mississippi crushed Memphis State 47-13 behind, respectively, Heisman Trophy candidates Jim Plunkett and Archie Manning.

Notre Dame, No. 6, rolled over Northwestern 35-14; No. 7 Penn State crushed Navy 55-7; eighth-ranked Michigan held off stubborn Arizona 20-9 and Missouri, No. 10, rallied to down Minnesota 34-12. Three members of the Second Ten tasted defeat, though.

I.x)uisiana State, ranked 12th, fell to Texas 20-18 when Lex James and Hugh McElroy combined on a 79-yard bomb with 13 seconds left. No. 13 proved unlucky for Kansas State, which lost to Kentucky 16-3. And Tulane knocked off No. 19 Georgia 17-14.

But Arkansas, No. 11, beat Oklahoma State 23-7; No. 14 Florida shelled Mississippi State 34-13; No. 15 Houston trounced Syracuse 42-15; UCLA, No. 16, rallied to beat Pitt 24-15; No.

17 West Virginia bombed Richmond 49-10; No. 18 Oklahoma got by Wisconsin 21-7 and Arizona State, ranked 20th, turned back State 38-9. Southern Cal came from behind three times to deadlock Nebraska. The last rally came when Clarence Davis ran nine yards witli 8:16 left, capping an 80-yard march. Joe 67-yard run in the third period had put the Cornhusker.s ahead again.

The Trojans almost pulled it out but a desperation 50-yard heave from Jimmy Jones to Sam Dickerson on the final play fell incomplete. The Texas lx)nghorns proved they know how to please. Royal wasn't overly confident earlier in the week, but he called it "our sharpest opening game after his impressive running backs galloped for 443 yards. Monday, Sept. 21, Lincoln Evening Journal Stale Journal 15 Fierce blocking and tackling produced violent collisions in Saturday Nebraska-Southern Calilornia football game.

Cornbusker safety man Kosch shows one way to stop a runawav Trojan hit him low and send him head over heels. Getting the treatment is I SC lullhack Sam tiinningham spilled just short of the Nebraska goal in the third cpiarter by the jarring tackle by Kosch. 1 Hoiv Others Saiv It BUI) FURILLO Los Angeles Herald-Examiner use and Nebraska flew at each other like gamecocks Saturday night in a collegiate football interscctional that nobody should have won. And nobody did when the chicken feathers cleared. It wouldn't have been fair to the chaps who played in it and gave their all for room, board, l)(U)ks and tuition.

When it was over. Nebraska had 21 points on Ixtar and so did USC. Only it took the Trojan.s, favored by 1.1 points, a little longer, delighting the red-clad Nebra.ska fans over the parade tunnel, but terrifying the rest of the Coli.spum house which numbered 73,768. Accustomed to last-minute Trojan miracU's, USC followers were disappointed this time, not by defeat however. The team has played 23 regular season games without one of thoNC awful blotches much worse than acene.

There has been considerable change in the type of livestock being grown in the middle of America. Nebraska arrive in Los Angeles with any shm-footed clods. The ninth-ranked Huskers from the Big Eight brought along some racehorses for ends and halfbacks and a big strong quarterback from Green Bay, name of Jerry Tagge. With passing and the running of Joe Orduna and Johnny Rodgers, the Huskers fUxircd the Trojans three times with lead touchdown punches. But to the credit of John third-ranked they drew even every time.
