TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23 STOLEN BALL—Li liandoff to left half then (52) failed to s * * * Nebras 'Pointing' for Lions "We really were up for Penn State," Dennis Emanuel, one of Nebraska's line standouts Saturday afternoon, said in the noisy Nebraska locker room after the Huskies' 14-7 upset over Penn State. "I don't know why we wanted to beat them," the 25-year- old tackle continued, "but we really wanted to win this one and we pointed towards it." Emanuel, who just recently re turned from the service after let tering for the Huskies in 1952, 1 wasn't the only Nebraska player who felt this way. Captain Dick McCashland, who received the game football for his afternoon'sl efforts, echoed the statement. "Everyone played to win this one," McCashland said. "I think we wanted to win the ball game more than They (Penn State) did. It was an overall team effort. Even the boys on the- sidelines helped." • George Harshman, one of only tWo Nebraska players who comes from Pennsylvania agreed with his teammates. Harshman, a sen ior quarterback, hails from Dick erson Run—a small town located about 30 miles from Pittsburgh. "We were laying for Penn State," Harshman said. "This re minded me of our game with Ok lahoma last season. We were really up for that game and led Oklahoma 7-0 at the• end of the first quarter. But their overall manpower just wore us out. "I think they should have thrown more hook , passes," Harsh man., continued. "That was their biggest mistake in my opinion. We were looking for the long passes and fading back for them, leaving our mid dle open. But State didn't take advantage of this. "You know," Harshmarr,con chided, "I really wanted to beat Penn State. I wanted to go there when I graduated from (Liberty) high school, but Rip I (Engle) wouldn't pay any attention to me. Now, we're even." Nebraska's coach Bill.l . enningL, who saw his team win my one of ten games in his fir t season last fall, also credited tom spirit for playing a major pal in the victory. "We were working r al hard for this one," the form r Okla homa end standout sail. "Each man had to fight his , uts out and he did, think manuel helped to bring the tea along as did our - captain (McC. shland). "We hacl the psych.logical edge, being the and = rdogs," Jennings continued. "Penn State had a real good b 11 club and some real dangerou- backs in (Dave) Kasperian, ( at) Bo tula and (Richie) Luc- How ever, we had two rel. good breaks when that guy those long passes. _Su 1958 ns Admit other hand, none of our mis- takes cost us. "I don't know what we'll do in ,the rest of our games," Jen nings concluded. "You never can tell about football. Right now we're looking towards Purdue and hoping we can beat them." Penn State's coach Rip Engle had his own voice in the matter. "I think the key point was our lack of speed," the disappointed Engle said after the game. "And that kickoff broke our morale. "I knoW we lacked pep in the first half," Engle admitted, "but I think the blame for that lies in our practices. Do you know that we haven't scrimmaged for over a week and a half because of our injuries. You can't run a football team that away. "I don't think we should be so hard on (Maury) Schleicher for dropping those passes," En gle said. "Remember, he was a fullback before. Bell come along. "I thought (B i 11) Wehmer, (Chuck) Ruslavage and our tac kles played a pretty good game. But I was a little disappointed with our sophomores.

STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA Booters Hopes By Sophomore .After All-Ame'rican soccer halfback Howie Maierhofer broke his ankle and was lost for the season, Lion Coach Kenny Hosterman naturally began to worry about who would fill the big gap. Finding someone to fill the shoes of such a capable perform er was a big problem for the bootees successful mentor. But Hosterman thinks that he has come up with the athlete who can remedy the situation—soph omore Bill Rierson. "I'm very pleased with Hier son." said Hosterman. "He's a real hustler. Last week he played well enough in our scrimmages to pr o v e that he could take over Howie's center halfback spot. He could be the answer to a lot of our prob lems." Rierson played on the Lion freshman team last year and did a commendable job. He wasn't really noticed until last week when he distinguished himself practice sessions. According to Hosterman, Rier son has all the physical assets fold playing halfback: "He is smart, has two good feet, and he can diagnose plays, well. Right now he isn't in the same class as Maierhofer, but he has so much natural ability• that he should be a top notcher soon." With the unexpected emer gence of Rierson, the Lion halfback situation seems to be in fairly good shape. Hosier man plans to flank Rierson with two veteran performers— Herb Hertner and Gary Miller. Miller had been working out at center forward in early prac tices. He was switched back to * * Former Lion end Les Walters was released from the Baltimore Colts yesterday. Walters, who was a visitor to Penn State's practice session yes terday, told The Daily Collegian he was surprised to be dropped from the pro team.

But Miller' is a coaches answer fora versa tile, athlete. He is big, agile and well seasoned in :halfback play.' Miller's counterpart, Hertner, is a two-year letterman at half back. He can play defense well" and is also a scoring threat. "Herby never gives up. He's al so very skilled and is always thinking out there," remarked Hosterman. Like his teammate Mike Stoll meyer, Hertner never gets much attention but always gives a good solid performance. In reserve Hosterman has, an other sophomore—Gene Raiford. "Raiford is a corner," said the Lion mentor. Raiford has the po tential for developing into a good solid halfback. All he needs is other good halfback brigade this Saturday when the Lions open at home with Bucknell. "Although I was playing be hind two experienced pros (Colt ends Jim Mutcheller and Ray Berry), I thought I could play enough to be of value to the Colts," Walters "commented. PAGE SEVEN Raised 'Find' experience, according to Hoster man. But a badly twisted knee may cut down his effectiveness this year. Another halfback reserve is Wayne Rogers. Rogers is an other handyman for Hosterman. Ho will be used at halfback but can easily be switched to the front line.
