    NEBRASKA SWAMPS KEARNEY CONTINUED from First Pass1 play for the remaining seven yards and the first touchdown OF the season. Frank missed goal. They came easy after that. Penalties coming with exasperating frequency kept Nebraska back for while but hard line punging finally took the sphere over from the five yard line. Warner falling through center on a fake. The contest was grand procession after this and the full complement of players and substitutes was used.
