From The Sidelines
Gus De emphasizes,
lim Re-emphasizes
The annual University Club Quarterbacks' kick-off dinner Mon
day for the X Huskcrs produced more argument concerning the over
rated and over-aged issue on de-emphasis of sports. Paul Zimmer
man, who was a Cornhusker trackman in the twenties and is now
sports editor of the Los Angeles
sports, and staunchly derided such
dents as curtailing spring practice sessions and post-season bowl
games.
With the honorable Chancellor R. G. Gustavson seated on his
right, the featured speaker said, "Athletics are the greatest heri
tage In America today, and if the college presidents undermine or
de-emphasize athletics, they are doing the wrong thing."
The sports scribe continued
he disregarded his notes and poured out hateful statements against
the sports de-emphasis program. Chancellor Gustavson is chairman
of the college presidents committee which defends the de-emphasis
of athletics.
Having returned recently from the Olympic Games in Helsinki,
Finland, he said, "If you start curtailing athletics, you will do real
harm to America. There is nothing wrong with winning, nor is there
anything wrong with aiding athletes if it is done in honest fashion.
"I say keep athletics clean if we can. By attempting to cut off
the arm of football, the presidents are striking at the heart of inter
eollegiate athletics."
Chancellor Gustavson, who spoke only briefly a few minutes
before Zimmerman was introduced, had no chance for rebuttal,
and had no comment following the speech. His assistant, Bruce
Nicoll, said that the Chancellor felt his views on athletics were
veil known and he would stand on those remarks made prior to
Zimmerman's speech.
Earlier in the evening, the Chancellor had told his audience that
he was heartily in accord with the action of the North Central group
and the action taken by the Big Seven conference in regard to spring
practice, etc. "Doing things under the table is not part of the Uni
versity of Nebraska," the chancellor said.
The Other Six
si , y- I
COACH BUD WILKINSON . .
His Oklahoma Sooners have fin
ished in the top ten on the AP
poll for the last four years. He
recently signed to stay ten more
years at Norman. Starting his
aixth year as head grid coach
at OU, he directed his teams to
four previous Big Seven crowns,
and one tie for the champion
ship. Oklahoma . . .
John Jacobs, Oklahoma track
coach, has notified his cross
country squad to start prelim
inary running.
Biff Seven conference track
roaches this fall voted for a
three-mile crosscountry race,
thus reversing the league's 22
year "chain harness" preced
ent of running two miles on the
cinder track in the fall, when
NCAA rules say all rollege
crosscountry meets shall be
held over a course 3 to 7 miles
in length.
The Sooners lost Jim Wilkin-,
son, Don Crabtree and Ken
Cooper from their Big Seven
runner-up two-mile team of last
year, but keep Warren Rouse,
upset winner of the Big Seven
outdoor two-mile run and third
in the NCAA 5,000 last spring;
Ronald Reed, freshman who
placed third in the Big Seven
outdoor mile and Bruce Drum
mond, Tulsa senior.
In last fall's Big Seven
two-mile meet, Wilkinson was
fifth in 9:37. Drummond sixth
in 9:38, Rouse 11th in 9:44,
Reed 15th in 9:52.9, and
Cooper 18th in 9:56.
Oklahoma will meet Texas
Aggies at Norman. All other
dual meets, against Kansas,
Kansas State, and Oklahoma
A&M, will be away from home.
So will the Big Seven meet No
vember 15 at .Lawrence.
Turning back to football,
Oklahoma expects six return
ing service men back this fall
for football, most of them from
the 45th division of the Okla
homa National Guard.
From the 45th will come Backs
Tom Carrol, Gene Cook, Bob
Pyle, and Bob Ewbank; ends
Bill Coffman, Jerry Cross; and
center Jim Acree. Juel Sweatte,
sophomore from Georgetown,
S. C, is home from navy duty.
Ewbank and Acree are the
only returning lettermen.

NU's Johnny Bender
Earns 'Hall Of Fame'
The late Johnny Bender, hula
hipped Cornhusker hall carrier of
the early 1900's, was the eighth
ithlete to be chosen by the com
riittee for The Lincoln Journal
Ball of Fame.
Bender was a member of Ne
braska's first and only unde
feated, nnscored-on team, the
1902 squad that toppled such
Glenn Nelson
Times, stood firmly in defense of
recent practices by college presi
to keep his audience spellbound as
Fans, players, coaches and
students of the game will find
therein an explanation of many
of the plays that carried Okla
homa to a new modern national
collegiate record of 31 consecu
tive victories.
Kansas State . . .
With the insertion of the
"quarter-system" at Kansas
State Coach Bill Meek will
have to depend on 22 players
to carry most of the grid load
this fall.
The "team-a-quarter" sys
tem isn't new to football. It just
got kicked a bit in the back
ground when the new fangled
two-platoon fad swept the
country. Meek thinks it can
work at Kansas State.
He will play one complete
eleven both on defense and of
fense throughout the first quar
ter of the game. At the start of
the second quarter, a new gang
of Wildcats will take the grid
iron. The team which started the
game will return for the third
period and give way the fourth
quarter to team No. 2.
Actually, Meek will not
have a first and second team
at Kansas State. The two
elevens which have been get
ting most attention in early,
two-a-day practices are about
equal in ability.
As the coaching staff now has
the teams divided, there are
eight lettermen on each eleven.
On the outfit quarterbacked by
Lane Brown, a 2-letter senior,
there are four sophomores, six
juniors, and one senior.
The team quarterbacked by
Jack Chilton, transfer from Mi
ami, Oklahoma, J.C., has four
sophomores, four juniors, and
three seniors.
Veryl Switzer, the Wildcat's
second team All-American
halfback, will play either full
back or half back and isn't
included in the first 22 play
ers because he has been out of
action recently with a leg in
jury. The injury is apparently not
of a serious nature and Switzer
will join one of the two first
units at a right halfback spot.
He is a junior letterman.
The Cats will test their "team-a-quarter"
system the night of
September 20 when the enter
tain Bradley under the lights at
Manhattan.

halfback for the Sooners, should

kinson's plans this year. He was
all set to break in as a sopho

team in 1950 and 1951.

Selections to the Hall of Fame
are made by George Clark, Dan

peared to be happening for the
second year in a row was fore-
trol specialist, Warren Hacker.
Hacker, backed up with home
runs by Dee Fondy, Harry Chite,
and Bill Serena, whitewashed
New York's frantic Giants, 9-0.
Warren gave up only three hits
while going the route for his
fourteenth victory in 22 deci
sions. Harshman was the loser
for the Giants.
With only ten games remaining
the Giants find themselves four
games behind the league leading
Dodgers in the loss column.
The situation appears dark for
Leo Durocher's boys just after
they had changed the cry from,
"Can anyone ever equal the Giants
comeback" to "How can they do
it again."
In the only other major
league game yesterday after
noon the New York Yankees
dropped the Detroit Tigers to
inch their way farther ahead of
the Cleveland Indians.
Bob Miller gave the Yanks the
victory with a 7-0 shutout win.
Hard luck Art Koutteman was the
loser for the Tigers as they fell
deeper into the cellar.

The personable new coach of
the University swimming team
this year is Warren Emery. Mr.
Emery is no stranger to Ne-

braska grad of '48 and a Lincoln
High alum.
In 1949 and
1950, Emery
worked on
his Master's
at the Uni
versity. A
heart ailment
has kept him
from stren
uous compe
tition since
1942. i
Since former ' Courtesy Lincoln Star

Lepley has returned to Indiana
for his Doctor's degree, Emery is
on a one year course as replace
ment. The past two years has found
him working as a field represent
ative for the American Red Cross.
On October 13, Coach Emery
will hold the first meeting for all
University men interested in
swimming. The first workout will

The season's opener against
Kansas will not be held until
January 14, but Emery is al

backstrokers. Other letter win

Husker Notes
Despite the fact that Nebraska
won only one football game in
1951, two attendance records were
broken.
This alone is somewhat amaz
ing, but add to that the fact
that four of the five home games
were played in cold, windy
weather.
The single game attendance
mark at home was set at the Penn
State game when 39,770 attended.
The old mark was 39,360, when
Indiana played in Lincoln in 1937.
The home attendance mark for
five games totaled 179,444, which
blotted out the 178,881 who at
tended the home games in 1950.
Players from Lincoln, Grand
Island and Omaha lead numeric
the Cornhusker sauad. Of
I the squad of 64 who returned to
j the varsity squad this year, seven
are from Lincoln, six from Omaha
and five from Grand Island.
Coach Bill Glassford is the
twenty-second football coach at
the University of Nebraska since
the first paid football teacher was
hired in 1893.
