NU ready for crucial game
"We've been feeding the players a lot of Sunflower seeds this week—maybe that will help help us a little."
HIS REASON
NATE BRANCH
That's what Joe Cipriano, Nebraska coach, said. But if the Jayhawks are up to par tonight, the Huskers will be eating crow, not Jayhawk-

The club has been sparked by Stuart Lantz, who has been averaging 21.0 points per league game. He also leads the team in total points, rebounding, field goals and free throw percentage. He also ranks No.3 in Big Eight scoring.
Cipriano will probably start Lantz and Ron Simmons (7.4 in Big 8 play) at the guards, Nate Branch (16.4) and Tom Baack at the forwards. Baack has a 19.2 average. Willie Campbell gets the nod at center.
After the Cornhuskers slammed K-State 6759 at Manhattan last weekend, they are looking towards cinching the Big Eight title by beating the Jayhawks at Allen Field House tonight.
"WeVE BEEN playing much better the last couple of games." he confessed. "Nate Branch has come around like we had hoped he would and all of the players are working more as a unit."
Cipriano claims that this game with KU will be the most crucial he has faced since coming to Nebraska. He would rather play the game in Lincoln, he said.
LONDON—(UPI)—Song writer Geoff Stephens, who wrote the pop tune "Winchester Cathedral," gave a three-word explanation when he declined to make a donation to the real Winchester Cathedral fund: "I'm an agnostic."
