Post-game stories out of Lincoln reveal that when reporters found Iowa State Coach Vince DiFrancesca 20 minutes after his club's last minute. 7-9, loss to Nebraska he was prone on a cot, staring at the ceiling.
Supplied with a cot, or even a wrestling mat, Chuck Mather would have joined DiFrancesca in a similar tableau 200 miles south. For his Kansas club lost a 25-26 verdict to Colorado.
The difference would have been that Mather, staring at the ceiling would have undergone heat flashes of 80-yard lightning. Such lengths of fire have flickered consistently in every game the Jayhawkers had played. Colorado scored its fourth touchdown on an 80-yard off-tackle burst by tailback Bob Stryskny.
A week earlier College of Pacific scored on the first scrimmage play on an 80-yard pass-run from Jim Reynosa to end Farrell Funston. TCU had broken apart the opener shortly after the halftime kickoff by sending Ken Wineberg around left end for an 80-yard touchdown after Kansas had played the Horned Frogs tough through the first half.
80-yard Runs Kill KU
"Can you imagine an 80-yard touchdown play every game against us," Mather points out. Then partially answering his own question . . . "We don't have to imagine them. We saw them."
Most bitter of all to the Kansas coach is the fact that Colorado had averaged only 1.1 yards in 10 previous tries against the participant defense alignment through which it burst Stransky.
Up at Lincoln, DiFrancesca, also in his third Big Seven season, was moaning much the same tune. "Imagine losing to them on a field goal two years straight."
Nebraska scored a 10-7 victory last year at Ames. Last Saturday, Iowa State had the Cornhuskers down., 7-0, in the first four minutes and had clung to a 7-6 lead up to the last 45 seconds. A wild pitch-out, plus a downfield kick of the lose ball had given NU all the opportunity it needed.
Fumbles Hurt Cyclones
The Cyclones have been fighting another frustration. They have fumbled 23 times in three games. Eliminate just half of these and they would be rolling at 3-0 instead of the 1-2 level they will carry against Kansas Saturday at Ames. They beat Denver, 13-10, and lost to Northwestern, 13-14.
This year's Kansas edition obviously is much improved in every way. Yet it hasn't put the proof in the form of a victory. The Jayhawkers went down before TCU, 0-32. They came from behind for a 27-27 tie with COP and, save for a penalty after Galen Wahlmeier's successful extra point, would have entered the final nine minutes of theout with Colorado, 26-26.
Kansas played stoutly enough to rank second among Big Seven teams in rushing defense after its first two games. But TCU and COP split the air lanes for four touchdowns. Last Saturday, Colorado could hook-up only one completion, but breached Jayhawk ground defenses for 251 yards.
Meanwhile Kansas already has accumulated 57-percent of its 1955 rushing total at 724, and scored 52 points, more than half its 1955 output of 93.
The team which can generate any sort of spark out of such dual misfortunes should win Saturday. It will be the 36th meeting between the clubs with Kansas on the long end of an 18-12-5 count.
Minor Leagues Receive Aid
NEW YORK—(UP)—The major leagues today set up an emergency fund "up to $500,000" to help the struggling low minor leagues stay in business. Creation of the fund was announced by Baseball, Commissioner Ford Frick, who said all 16 big league clubs had unanimously approved the move.

MANHATTAN — (UP) — The "home folks" may get a chance to see a fellow Nebraskan in action Saturday when Jerry Sand, the Kansas State sophomore center from Beatrice, Neb., break into the Wildcat lineup.
Mather Pleased With KU's Spirit
Kansas football Coach Chuck Mather said he was satisfied at the Jayhawkers spirit and determination Thursday as they finished preparations for Saturday's clash with the Iowa State Cyclones at Ames.
Mather ran his charges through a review session of the Iowa State offense and drills on pass offense and defense. Mather said there will be no change in the KU lineup.
Mertes said the only other change in the lineup would be the movement of junior halfback Gene Keady to right half. Tony Addeo, senior and formerly a right half starter, is hampered by a sprained ankle. The Wildcats polished up both offense and defense Thursday.
Cats Start Cornhusker
Coach Bus Merts listed Sand as a starter for the Big Seven game with Nebraska at Lincoln.
The 36-man traveling squad left at 2 p. m. today for Ames.
Pearson and Stephenson played to a 0-0 tie but in the playoff Pearson won 1-0 by compiling more yardage.
The Wildcats polished up both offense and defense Thursday.
The Iowa State governing board for the conduct of intercollegiate athletics is made up of members of the faculty, students, and alumni.
NEW YORK—(UP)—Don Larsen, the perfect game pitcher, said today he will "gladly settle for 16 or 18 victories next year." "One, guy I met asked me if I'm gonna stick with that no-windup stuff next season," I looked at him and said. "What do you think? I haven't lost a game since I started using it against the Red Sox three weeks ago."
Other results:
Delta Chi turned an intercepted pass into a touchdown for the only score of the game as they turned back Sigma Nu 6-0 Thursday in an intramural A team football game. Ron Davis intercepted a Sigma Nu aerial in the second quarter and scampered 40 yards to the Sigma Nu 5 yard line. Bob Babcock then passed to Salenski for the touchdown.
In an Independent A team game, Moodies rambled past McCook 39-0. Crites scored first for Moodies on a 4 yard dash around end. Then Slaymaker threw 10 yards to Martin to make it 13-0 and came back three minutes later and pitched to Preston for the third score.
Later, Seltner took an 18 yard pass from Slaymaker for a touchdown. Hanslip threw 40 yards to Baldwin for the fifth score and Courville ended the scoring by taking a 2-yard pass from Slaymaker.
Delta Chi Beats Sigma Nu 6-0
Larsen Wants 18 Wins in '57
In boxing, the last bare-knuckle title fight occurred in Richburg, Miss., on July 8, 1889, when John L. Sullivan defeated Jake Kilrain in 75 rounds.
