week rest forced by an ankle injury He was never better as he riddled the Central defense with 11 completions in 12 throws for 155 yards And the Bluejay homecoming crowd at Rosenblatt Stadium howled

is rated a toss to gain a first title since 1952 A tie would favor the Indians Superstitious UN 0 fans will shudder at this the race has never been decided until the final game in the CIC (dating back to 1928) Most Emporia fans feel Ce rone must have a good pass catching day for victory to be achieved The sentiment is not shared entirely by Omaha Coach Al Caniglia am not insinuating that Cerone is not a great ball play er but cold statistics prove Em poria is not a one man club They are ahead of us in rush ing offense as well as in pass ing They have two players among the rushing offense lead ers and we have only one Leahy (quarterback) and Chuck Divitto (fullback) are more dangerous than Ce rone Leahy must throw the ball before Bruce can catch the Omaha coach argued The inference was that defensive line more than the secondary holds the key to the Emporia State pass ing success Tackles Mel Wash ington and Ed Jackson plus their replacements are ex pected to lead the pass rush on Leahy Rich Luger and John Bren nan UN 0 defensive ends will not be able to rush too often They must protect against sweeps and traps until Leahy commits himself Club Homecoming The North Omaha Club Potent

favored by a couple of touch downs Though physically superior far more ex perienced and apparently more talented the Cornhuskers can expect a fight for their lives That has been the recent history of
