Sooner Errors Leave Fairbanks Far from Satisfied with Victory
By BRETT MARSHALL Kansan Sports Writer
Oklahoma University head coach Chuck Fairbanks was far from satisfied with the 31-7 whipping his Sooner's applied to the University of Kansas Saturday afternoon.
"I'm happy we won," Fairbanks said, "but we must cut down on our mistakes, both offensively and defensively, if we don't fight against Nebraska on Thanksgiving Day."
Fairbanks said if Nebraska looked at the film from the KU game they would be overconfident. Numerous fumbles and interruptions led to Fairbanks' disappointment.
"We had no mental discipline out there today." Fairbanks said. "When a team makes the mistakes we did, there is no discipline on the ball team."
Greg Prutt, the Sooners' Heisman Trophy candidate, was not happy with his game, although he gained 135 yards on 16 carries. Prutt saw little action in the half, after spraining an ankle late in the second period.
"I ran up the middle and was hit very
brightly. I fell down, and when I landed, my
foot was twisted completely."
Pruttt said he would be ready for the big showdown Thursday against Nebraska in Lincoln. That game could determine the Big Eight Conference champions.
Speaking about the possibility of winning the Heisman trophy, Prutt said, "I think my chances are good. This year I have to run more inside because the defenses are stacked for the outside run, and that makes gaining vardage a whole lot longer."
Pruitt said this year had been partially

Fairbanks said he would not trade Prutu

"For our type of offense," Fairbanks said, "the best back in the country and we simply are."
Fairbanks said KU was fired up and ready to play the Sooners and he credited the Jayhawks' aggressive defense for many of the Sooner mistakes.

"Kansas played an excellent game," Fairbanks said. "In fact, if not for a couple of bad plays on their part, the score might have been 31-17."
You can talk all you want about Greg Prout, Leen Crosswell and the fabulous Oklahoma wishbone, but none of them impresses University of Kansas coach Don Fambrough nearly as much as the Sooners' offensive line.

Fambrough Praises OU Line
And few people are in a better position to be impressed than Fambridge. His Jayhawks became the latest victims of the四-ranked Sooners, 31-7, Saturday in Memorial Stadium before a crowd of approximately 35,000 persons.
OU Rushes Bv.Javhawks
All-American center (Tom Brahman) and they've got great speed and quickness on the field.
"We were really concerned about their fallback (Leon Crosswhite) and their power game where they keep hitting you for three lifespan times," Dayand said. "And that's what they did yesterday."
FAMBROUGH WAS not bitling the Oklahoma running game, however.
"Oh, they've got great running backs," he added. "They're fast and they're hard to tackle. We don't want to risk it; we should have stopped them and they'd get three or four more yards just on their own."
Oklahoma got those three or four yards enough times to roll up a total of 239 at the half and a 17-0 lead. The Sooners' scores came on a three-yard run by quarterback Dave Robertson in the first quarter, and a six-yard run by Crosswhite and a 35-yard field goal by Rick Fulcher in the second period.

Running back Jerome Nelloms agreed.
"I'd have to give Nebraska an edge," said Jayhawk tight end John Schrobl. "Mostly because they're in Lincoln. Nebraska's a little more physical but they both have pretty similar ofenses. Both like to lull you to sleep, then hit you with the big play."
"Okahoma's a pretty good team," he said. "They're pretty well-balanced, but Id say they're No. 2 in the Big Eight right now."
"Nebraska had a better defense," he said.
"But Oklahoma is by far the fastest team in the league. Really, they're different types of teams."
Cornerbach Denny Lantz, although he wore a gray knee brakers, also rated Nebraska a slight favor.

THE JAYHAWKS proved Oklahoma human on KU's second possession in the third quarter when they drove 75 yards on three plays. The march was capped by Dave Jaynes pass over the middle to tight end John Scholl for a 48-d score.
Big 8 Set for 5 Bowls
KANAS' CITY (AP)—Five Big Eight Conference football teams had accepted postseason bowl invitations and the stage was all set Sunday for a second straight Bing Day championship showdown between the Oklahoma Sooners and the Oklahoma Sooners.
Four of the bow-bound clubs—Nebraska, Oklahoma, Colorado and Missouri—accept invitations shortly after they knocked off their respective opponents in a game. The State received its bid several hours after the Cyclones were beaten by Michigan, 6-5.
In other games, Nebraska demolished Kansas State, 59-7, Oklahoma walloped Kansas, 31-7, and Colorado routed Air Force, 38-7. Oklahoma State was idle.

Liberty Bowl at Memphis - Iowa State, 5-31. vs. Georgia Tech, 6-3-1.
Five bowl games by one conference is a record. The Big Eight sent four teams last year, involving the same clubs except Missouri.
Oklahoma came right back, however, and scored the next two times it had the ball. The first was a two-yard plunge by halfback Robertson to split from Robertson to split end John Carroll.
Thursday's clash between the Huskers and the Sooners could prove pretty much a carbon copy of the same match in 1971 when the Nets won, 35-31, with a late touchdown strike.

Nebraska erupted for 10 first quarter points against Kansas State, and the fifth-tranked Cornhuskers, 5-0 in league play, had little difficulty bombing the Wildcats, 1-6. The first points came on Johnny Rodgers' 23-yard return and Rich Sanger's 28-field goal.
Colorado had more than a little trouble with the Air Force. The Buffs trailed 7-3 at half. However, Colorado piled up 21 points in the third quarter. Ken Johnson scored two at a two-run and threw two TD passes, both to Charlie Davis, for three and 10 yards.
FOURTH-RANKED Oklahoma, 4-1, held a 17-0 lead over Kansas, 1-5, after Greg Prutuil ground out 133 yards on 16 carries in the first half before a bruised ankle put him out on action. Prutuil watched the second half four times window at the end of the stadium.

Hill had booted a 28-yarder to pull Missouri into a 3-3 half-time tie after Tom Goeden had given the Cyclones a 3-4 first quarter lead with a 35-yard effort. It was the first game since 1968 that a Big Eight game had produced no touchdown.
Rodgers made Nebraska's third touchdown on an eight-yard run. It came during a 28-point outburst in the second period. The Wildcats lost all five of their fumbles.
Lenz said he was most impressed with OU halfback Greg Pruitt, who played only the first half against KU, but rushed for 135 yards in 16 carries.
"He hits the line quick and looks for an opening, " he said, "and when he sees one, he calls in to compare him to John Rodgers. They don't position but they do the搞 things."
Defensive tackle Gery Palmer' said Nebraska's more vicious defense gave the Cowboys a lead.
"Nebraksa can explode on you anyway," he said. "But Oklahoma is a quicker team."
Quarterback David Jaynes was hesitant to pick a winner for Thursday's contest.
"Nebraska's a stronger, more physical team, but OU's quicker," said Jaynes. "I really hate to say who's going to win. It'll probably be the team that makes fewer mistakes. But both teams are going to be sky-high, that's for sure."
"Okahama's offense was better last year, for sure," he said, "but their defense is a lot better this year. It's won some games for them.

"We kind of the long one away from them, except for that one pass," Fambrough said. "We made them work for it but they didn't fill all their. Their offence can easily eat up you."
Fambrough said it was the KU game plan to throw more against the Sooners than the Jayhawks had in the past two games. He added that if the line was a major factor in this decision.
"When they had the ball, they'd get five or six yards on first down," Farnback said, and they'd just move down the field. You拍了六个球，再来一两 yards from first down, but we didn't.
THE STATISTICS lend strong support to the KU coach's statement. Oklahoma ran 85 plays from scrimmage, KU only 61.
"THEY DIDN'T do bad, they didn't do bad," he said. "At times they were playing ball as they're going to play. There was a list of bots that he was only dumped two or three times."
The Jayhawk coach said he thought the KU offensive line did a good job protecting Jaynes.
"They're quick and it's hard to get outside on them," he said. "They just have tremendous line."
Fambrough said the Sooner offense forced the Jayhawks to go to their short game.

"Our game plan was designed to throw screws and draws," he said.
Another major cog in the KU attack was tailback Jerome Nellomls, who carried 19 times for 92 yards. It was his third straight game over 90 yards.
Fambrough said he was pleased that he was able to play some freshmen against ONI.
"At times we had three freshmen out there," he said. "Craig Hudson at defensive end, Kurt Knoff at cornerback and Charlie Masters at defensive tackle."
Only two KU players were reported injured against Okhaloma. Defensive end Pat Ryan suffered a bruised back and linebacker Mike Gardner had a hyperextension of his knee. Gardner is expected to miss the Jayhawks' last game.
Chiefs Sink Slowly in West, 27-17
KANSAS CITY (AP)—San Diego quarterback John Haddad and rushing star Cld Edwards collaborated Sunday for a 27-17 National Football league triumph, over the Chiefs, that prevented the Chiefs' championship chances in the American Conference West.

Education, Lobbving Are Tools of Information Groups
By MYLA STARR
Kansan Staff Writer
A small percentage of this country's college students are doing big things to improve their society. They are members of public information groups, which are interested in change through public education, lobbying and, when necessary, litigation.
The movement was started by students in minnesota colleges and universities who organized the Minnesota Public Information Research Group (MPIRG) in fall 1971. Other organizations established in the region include the Minnesota Information Research Group (MoIPRG) and Iowa's SIPIRG. There are currently 14 such organizations nationwide.
The few full-time staffers in these organizations receive a salary; student participation is strictly voluntary. The satisfaction of working to solve crucial problems within their state and communities is the student workers' only pay.
the "PIRGs," as they are called by their members, are controlled and financed
ALL PIRGs are concerned with both
and human problems within their
respective
In Minnesota, MIPRG has done studies of everything from snowmobiles to hearing aids. The group is currently involved in about 80 projects, which include studies of rapid transit and sewage treatment in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area.
In Missouri last year, MoPIRG workers' exposure of the deplorable conditions in the St. Louis City City jail resulted in a lawsuit to force closing of the jail because it was "cruel and unusual punishment" under the U.S. Constitution.
ONE OF THE twenty projects MOIRG is now involved in is a lawsuits to prove that exclusion of 18 to 21-year-olds from jury trials is warranted for protection clause of the 14 Amendment.
"People in this age bracket are allowed to vote and are treated as adults in many other areas," said Dommere, "and a large number of people have the trial are between the ages of 18 and 21."
"I don't know how effective the suit will be," said Bob Domerese, executive director of MoPIRG, "but it will dramatize an issue people tend to forget."
The purpose of the study, according to Neubauer, is to force retailers to remove from store shelves those toys that have been banned by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Federal Hazardous substances Act.
ISIPRG is currently involved in half a dozen projects. The most important of these, according to John Neubauer, executive director of the Iowa group, is a
pre-christmas toy study that is being conducted by 11 PIRGs throughout the city.
MARK VAUGHT, director of the Minnesota group, said that MPIRG workers involved in the study were also looking for solutions to the problem of violence but which are not banned by the FDA.
Vaulted cited a game "Bam," in which a broken broken into pieces with a mallet, as an exertion.
"We are looking for toy which we personally use, are unfit for children, be paid
Domestr said that the Missouri group was not involved in the ioy project.
"We just don't have the manpower," he said, "but I think it's a great idea."
The initial inspiration for PIRG belongs to Ralph Haden, according to the three midwestern directors, but the organization is different in that the groups are strictly under student control.
"NADER SERVED as the catalyst." said
Vaught, "but the organizing was done by students."
"During the fall of 1971, when these groups were initiated, students who were reflecting on what they were doing in their communities saw that they were failing to make an impact, he continued. "They made a difference," PIRG, they could make a difference."
The procedure for starting a PIRG is not formally outlined, but the same pattern was followed in the organization of each of the three PIRGs in the Midwest.
Arousing student interest is the first step in organizing a public information research group, directors agreed, and a petition was created among participants in favor of the proposal is mandatory.
THE IMPETUS for ISIPRG came from student body presidents of colleges and universities in Iowa who were interested in the movement to the Minnesota group. Neubauer said.

"This was the first time in Iowa that
An "educational program" to inform students about PIRG activities was followed by a petition drive, in which signatures of the majority of students in participating colleges and universities were obtained. he said.
The petition drives at Minnesota colleges and universities were "treemendously successful" according to Mark Vaught, research director of MPIRG.
petitions outlining administrative action were signed by a majority of students," said
Students who do not wish to contribute to the program may have the PIRG fee subtracted from their fee statements at the time of enrollment or have the tax refunded
"WE GOT AT least 50 per cent of the signatures of students at all of the schools and up to 85 per cent of the students' signatures at some of them." he said.
After the petition drives were completed, PIRG organizations met with university governing boards to arrange for funding of a new building. The university completely independent from colleges and universities in their states, they are financed by a "tutition tax" of $3 or $4 a year. This may be paid on a quarter or per semester, depending upon the fee of the tuition.
after their tuition is paid.
At the three participating schools in
Denver, students collected last year, according to Den-
erve.
PIRG FEES collected during the last academic year at the 19 participating institutions in Minnesota totalled $75,000 and received to receive $250,000 this year he said.
And from the nine Iowa colleges and universities that had set up IPRG funding to $40 million in 2015, ISPRG expects to receive $60,000 to $80,000. Neubauer said. The six institutions that have not yet set up funding will begin contributing next semester or in the fall of 2017.
Each PIRG is governed by a state board of directors made up completely of students, which has complete control over the organization's activities and finances. The number of board members allotted to each school is based on its enrollment.
DOMRESE SAID MoPIRG worked closely with the St. Louis Legal Aid Society because it was not big enough to have its three full-time staffers at MoPIRG, only Oursource has had legal training. He is a graduate of Harvard University Law School.
