Missouri went through a scrimmage session yesterday with Bill Brinkman, and Mike Magac, both right tackles, end Tom Carpenter and Fred Brossart nursing injuries. Only Brinkman probably will miss Saturday's encounter with the Air Force.
Nebraska's football coaches again made it clear to the Huskers that they will have their hands full this weekend at Ames against Iowa State.
Tiger Coach Dan Devine, speaking of his club's 21-20 upset loss to Colorado last week, said that he thought it played harder near the end of the game than at any time since "I've been here at Missouri."
The coaches have warned the players repeatedly that Iowa State is a sound football team and it will take a top effort to defeat the Cyclones.
The Huskers went through a light drill yesterday.
Iowa State concentrated on defense, working under the lights for the second night in a row.
Coach Clay Stapleton pointed out the Cyclones would have plenty of defense problems with the wide sweeps of Nebraska halfbacks Pat Fischer and Clay White, the pass-run option threat of Harry Tolly and the up-the-middle artistry of tailback Don Fricke.
Two hours of heavy drill left Coach Cliff Speegle dissatisfied with Oklahoma State's execution of the so-called minor football functions as he whipped the Cowboys along in preparation for Saturday's clash with Denver.
The injury situation at end brightened when Gary Cutsinger and Billy Dodson were able to take part in the action.

BOSTON — (UPI) — Shortstop Ernie Banks, confirmed as the National League's most valuable player, set his sights today on hoisting his Chicago Cubs out of the second division.
Banks Named Most Valuable Player 2nd Straight Season
"I just wish the Cubs could have made a first division finish." he said. "That's one of the few things that would give me as much pleasure as winning the MVP award again. Naturally, every player wants to win the MVP title and also to play in the World Series. I hope next year we can do something about that."
But Banks, who set two fielding records while his team finished in a fifth place tie this season, said he'd get as much of a kick out of seeing the Cubs make the first division or pennant grade as he got from the award.
The slugging prize possession of the Cubs, a powerhouse at the plate and an automaton in the field, yesterday was named to an unprecedented second straight MVP award by the National League writers.
Banks clubbed out 45 home runs while carrying the Chicago National League entry this season to beat out another power-hitting infielder, Milwaukee Braves two baseman Eddie Mathews, for the coveted award.
The rangy Banks, who recently signed for an estimated $48,000 for next season, hit .304, drove in 143 runs, collected 179 hits including 25 doubles, six triples, and scored 97 times.
His fielding broke two National League records, the first for a shortstop with the fewest errors over a season, 12, and the second for the highest shortstop fielding percentage in the history of his league, 985.
The award race wasn't a one-man affair, but it wasn't far from it. Banks polled $232_{1/2}$ points of a possible 318. He led Mathews by 44 points and more easily outdistanced Milwaukee's Hank Aaron in third place, Los Angeles' Wally Moon in fourth and San Francisco's Sam Jones in fifth, the only players among 24 receiving votes who col-

an atomic clock in orbit
To test Einstein's general theory of relativity, scientists at the Hughes research laboratories are developing a thirty pound atomic maser clock (see photo at left) under contract to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Orbiting in a satellite, a maser clock would be compared with another on the ground to check Einstein's proposition that time flows faster as gravitational pull decreases.
Working from the new research center in Malibu, California, Hughes engineers will develop a MASER (Microwave Amplification through Stimulated Emission of Radiation) clock so accurate that it will neither gain nor lose a single second in 1000 years. This clock, one of three types contracted for by NASA, will measure time directly from the vibrations of the atoms in ammonia molecules.
Before launching, an atomic clock will be synchronized with another on the ground. Each clock would generate a highly stable current with a frequency of billions of cycles per second. Electronic circuitry would reduce the rapid oscillations to a slower rate in order to make precise laboratory measurements. The time "ticks" from the orbiting clock would then be transmitted by radio to compare with the time of the clock on earth. By measuring the difference, scientists will be able to check Einstein's theories.
In other engineering activities at Hughes, research and development work is being performed on such
projects as advanced airborne systems, advanced data handling and display systems, global and spatial communications systems, nuclear electronics advanced radar systems, infrared devices, ballistic missile systems...just to name a few.
The rapid growth of Hughes reflects the continuous advance in Hughes capabilities-providing an ideal environment for the engineer or physicist, whatever his field of interest.

The MVP award to Banks didn't appear to disturb the losers too badly. Mathews, whose 46 homers, one more than Banks, led the National League, said, "I'm more than happy to finish second. It's just a nice feeling and a compliment. But I certainly think Banks deserved it. He had a wonderful year."
The Chicago shortstop's MVP victory two seasons running was the first time any National Leaguer has accomplished that feat in 28 years of voting, though several have won it in more than one season. Four American Leaguers have captured the most valuable title in two consecutive seasons.
