Nebraska may have lost a foot
ball game yesterday, but it gained
something that we haven't seen
on this campus for a long time
spirit.
Football season has always
been a romantic time of year.
There is a feeling about it all
mixed up with hot dogs, a packed
stadium, bands, pennants, and
cheering, win, lose or draw, that
can't be found in any other sport.
For that reason the past few years
have been a little disheartening.
It never seemed right to walk
into the Memorial Stadium and
find a couple of thousand unen
thusiastic spectators sitting dis
consolately here and there, with
no cheering section.
That's why yesterday was such
a great day. Approximately 18,000
people watched the game. It was
music to our ears to hear the ush
ers tell late-comers they would
have to go down to the 5-yard
line for a seat. It was football
weather, it was crowded, it was
noisy, the concessions stands ran
out of food before the half, and
nobody cared. That intangible
thing called "spirit" ran rampant
all over the place, with a red
feather in its hat.
This is only the beginning. It
was the first game for an inex
perienced team and we lost, but
there are more games coming up,
more touchdowns, more half
cooked hot dogs, more hoarse
throats, more screaming crowds,
because this is only the beginning
of a football season that IS a
football season.
Win, lose, or draw, if the Ne
braska spirit at the rest of the
games matches that of yesterday,
it's a great day.

The guy who said the "old days" would never
return was looney as a bedbug. Yesterday after
noon's game was enough to make a liar out of him
and all his cohorts what a fight! 'Course we didn't
score on them but what's a coupla numbers here
and there Potsy could answer that! As Alex Fink
said when he came out of the fracas, face skinned
and panting for all he was worth, "boy, it's rough
in there!" But matching the spunk of the team
was the enthusiasm of the crowd. Old days here
we come!
We were happy to see Truk Williams and Don
Sailors on the field and out of mischief. If foot
ball would just take up a little more of their time
perhaps they would stay out of strange people's
cars at night anyway, we don't know much more,
but how about that, fellas?
It has always been a big mystery to us what
goes on in the press box at a football game. Do
the reporters get all excited like the crowd or do
they sit back calmly chewing their cigarets and
smoking their pencils? Does Greg McBride ever
turn over backwards in his chair and does Walt
Dobbins ever swallow his cigar?
We wandered up yesterday afternoon to find the
answers to these questions but upon opening the
door we were met by an inferiority-complex-in
citing groan. The door was slammed in our face
and we picked up our nose and we walked back
down to the field. It seems that women aren t al
lowed in that place.
Speaking of old times, we saw some old timers'
faces sitting in the stadium (that's quite a trick
if you can do it.) Paul Svoboda, former Nebraskan
editor and now a captain in the marines, was back
in his old place in the student section yelling for
the team. "Buss" Black and Deuel Andresen, top
campus picnic dates of three years ago, were also
rooting for the scarlet and cream. Ed Nyden, 42
Husker end, was there with his wife and also Bill
Robinson and his o. and o.
The stadium really rang and the old forgotten
ghost, "Husker Spirit" rose from his grave to see
what was going on. Maybe next week hell get up
enough action to give the Gophers a swift kick
where it will do the most good.

This is to clearify the CORNHUSKER-Tri Pi st
ation: Recently, one of the two missing Cornhusker
receipt books was recovered, leaving a balance of
$5.26 which can be understood as only a normal
error when Cornhuskers are sold at fall registra
tion. Marilyn Adler,

' Sophistical Humor.
Set in modern England, "Blithe
