Former Huskers’ DNA to go to Bali

? The parents of a former University of Nebraska football standout missing in the area of two explosions in Bali, Indonesia, planned to send samples of their hair Tuesday to aid in any DNA identification of their son.

The hair and saliva samples of Jake Young will be sent to State Department officials in Bali and to the law firm their son had been working for in Hong Kong, which promised to help in the search if needed, Mrs. Young said.

Family of the former All-America center anxiously waited for news. No one had heard from the 34-year-old attorney since two blasts ripped through a popular nightspot Saturday in Bali, killing more than 180 people and injuring hundreds, mostly tourists.

Young, who recently was working in Hong Kong, had been in Indonesia to play one last rugby tournament. After the competition, he planned to move back to the United States to rejoin his wife, Laura, and 2-year-old son, Wilson, who recently moved to the Kansas City, Mo., area.

Young was to have started work today as an attorney with bank holding company Dickinson Financial Corp. in Kansas City, Mo.
