Hawks Battle Cornhuskers In League Tilt
The KU Jayhawks, proud possessors of a two-game winning streak, will meet the Nebraska Cornhuskers, undefeated this season, Saturday at Lincoln.
Coach Jack Mitchell's crew, which has been plagued by injuries all season, will again be going into Saturday's game without the services of halfback Mike Johnson, Garden City senior, who is suffering from an ankle injury. George Harvey, Parsons junior and KU 245-pound guard, may see limited action in Saturday's game due to chest infection earlier this week. Reports today said Harvey would start against the Cornhuskers.
THE LOSS of Harvey would be a severe blow to the Jayhawk defense.
"We probably won't know about Harvey until Friday. The guy has really had a tremendous year," Mitchell said.
If Harvey is unable to play Saturday, either Greg Roth, Hays senior, or John Greene, Duncan, Okla., sophomore, will get the starting nod.
Coach Mitchell plans to start Dan Miller, 168 pound junior from Omaha, Neb., in place of Johnson. Miller gained 81 yards in 13 carries against Kansas State last week. Other backfield starters will be Dick Abernethy, Kansas City sophomore, slotback; Bill Fenton, Kansas City junior, quarterback; and Bill Gerhards, Leavenworth senior, fullback.
Nebraska, one of three major undefeated teams in the country, will be sparked by their two ace quarterbacks, Fred Duda, who will probably get the starting call, and Bob Churchich. Another Cornhusker to watch will be speedster Frank Solich, fullback, who tips the scales at 160 pounds.
NEBRASKA has consistently led the Big Eight all season in all statistic departments except for pass defense, which is headed by KU. The Jayhawk secondary should have a busy day, Saturday however, against the tosses of Duda and Churchich. The Cornhuskers also are blessed with notable all Big Eight receivers Tony Jeter and Freeman White.
The series with Nebraska is the second oldest rivalry on the football schedule, ranking only behind Missouri. The Cornhuskers and KU have played 71 games with Nebraska holding a wide edge in the series, 49-19, and three ties. Nebraska has won the last three games. The Jayhawks defeated NU five straight times before the 1962 game.
Preceding the NU-KU game will be a freshman game between the same two schools on Friday afternoon. The KU freshmen own wins over Oklahoma, 24-0, and Kansas State 28-0. Nebraska's freshmen defeated K-State 38-14, while losing to Missouri, 14-7.
