Victors9 Laurels
The University of Nebraska football squad
went into the Kansas State game a seven poi.-.t
underdog.
They came out the winner of both the game
and the respect of many who would have
buried the Huskers before the Big Eight season
began.
Those who take the slaps on the backs from
folks around Lincoln land are probably the
same ones who looked down in the dumps at
the University footballers last week and the
week before
It's not too surprising to consider the effect
victory has on the total population of the
University. Those who had been fans of the
Cornhuskers glowed with pride and pointed out
individuals like Gene Sandage who played
almost the entire game for the Huskers or
Bill Jennings, whose cool determinism inspired
the boys with a fervor to win.
Those who quickly turn into fair weather
fans when the scoreboard clicks the team into
favor glowed also at the Cornhusker victory.
We believe that taking the entire season into
consideration at least at this early date
well have to admit that the team has played
some pretty hard balL The team has become
more and more polished. They have finally
arrived In the league they were meant to be
is vying against squads like Kansas State.
On the distaff side the prophets of woe are
saying that the Huskers are in for another
trouncing next week at the hands of Pitts
burgh. Jennings admits that a couple of top men
might miss the game because of injuries.
But we'd like to make a prediction.
This newspaper believes that if the the Corn
huskers work as hard against Pitt as they did
this past Saturday in Manhattan, that if the
football enthusiasm of the students on the
campus rubs hard the players; that if the
alums would get behind the Huskers on their
jaunt to the East, this football team can do
as well as any other team Pitt will meet.
That means they wiii play hard, drive bird
and get some of that good old pioneer Ne
braska spirit into the game.
They may not win Pitt is top drawer stuff.
But they'll do their durndest for Nebraska U.
With one win under their belt the Corn
huskers may shock a lot of people.
They did it by thrashing K-State.
They did it by stirring a lot of comment
about what football spirit is and bow it in
spires or halts a team.
Maybe enough of the students at this insti
tution were shamed by the poor turnout at the
farewell rally Friday to think about what the
team means to the school and bow the honor
of the University is reflected by the prestige
the football team collects.
This may not be the purpose of a University
to raise great grid powers. But it is cer
tainly the measuring stick of the fame of a
university to those outside the educational
scope of a schooL
The kind of success we'd like to see the
football team capture is the kind that binds
the University together into a family which
can show the outside world that we play bard,
we win hard and we lose graciously.
More Culture
Onoe again we can stress quite safely that
culture isn't quite dead out here in the wilds
of Nebraska.
As a matter of fart, as one English professor
commented Monday, "We've become an oasis,
it seems." S'jpT!

programs which will be held
this year in the University Art Gallery.
First the Theater. This season the number
of productions has been cut down. This move
is apparently being taken to cut the cost but
we can speculate that the quality of each pro
duction will be improved with additional re
hearsal time available.
The Howell Theater group is planning to do
four plays, two rather light ones this semester
and two more on a somewhat different plane
next semester.
Dr. Dallas Williams said that the J. M.
Marrie play '"What Every Woman Knows" is
first on the bilL
A ticket campaign (offering reduced prices
and what have you) is now being conducted by
the theater.
As for the gallery shows, two University
English professots, Miss Bernice Slote and Karl
Shapiro, wIH conduct a poetry reading program
this evening at 8:30 in the Morrill Hall facilities.
This program, one of many which win be
sponsored by the English Department and the
Art Departments, will include the poetry of
University students. The evening's entertain
ment is free.
AH three of the above mentioned departments
are getting their skulls together to provide
another form of entertainment, a play reading,
which will be held in the Art Galleries.
Pub Board
As far as the Student Council nominating
committee is concerned the greatest part of
the battle is over.
The interviews are over. The nominations
have been made.
Now it will be up to the council to take
to heart the tons of advice handed out so
freely by all parties involved over the past
couple of weeks and pick the student members
of the Pub Board.
The choices which will be made will, we
believe, affect the future of the student vote
on faculty committees.
During the past week or so the Daily Ne
braskan has spoken of the added responsi
bilities which go along with student votes. Now
there is one more step which, if taken in the
food faith with which the nominees, applicants
and committee members took their respective
steps, we can be assured of a top flight pub
board.
We'd like to see student votes reinstated on
the faculty committee. This seems to be pretty
well known.
We would also like to see the student mem
bers of the pub board take on extra respon
sibilities. Both go hand in hand, we feel.
So, as has been stated before and win be
stated again, it's up to the council.
What the council win look for in the nominees
and what they win give to the students should
be a matter of deep concern to all students
on this campus.
We would recommend that students start
talking to their council members and let them
know what they want and who they want for
the pub board. A good deal of lobbying might
change the minds of the council members. And
in any democratic society the representatives
have an obligation to listen to their constituents.
So from the final results of the pub board we
might be able to gauge a couple things: 1) the
interest the entire student body has in this
important action; 2) the acceptance of respon
sibility by the council.
Both results should be very enlightening.

First Things First . . .
bv Jack Pollock
Migration, Homecoming, and the Cornhuskers
seem to be primary conversation topics this
week. The Student Council is expected to have
a Migration announcement soon possibly this
week with the move almost assuredly being
to Missouri.
On Homecoming: Students generally agree
Puke Ellington's nametag carries more appeal
than the band hired last year, although Charlie
Spivak's crew played to a near-capacity audi
ence. Significance: Tickets win go faster and
could indicate a sellout crowd for the Nov. 2
event.
On football: Last week Kansas State coach
Bus Mertes predicted (after K-State .overpow
ered Brigham Young 36-7) 'Our games win be
Jteugher after Ihis and we'll have to play better
to win against .Nebraska." Ee was right.
The Cornhusker victory gives Nebraska 33
victories in the 42-game series with seven for
K-State and two ties. The Huskers, incidentally,
played with an injury-pocked squad while the
Wildcats ran at nearly fuU strength.
This week the Huskers face the powerful
Pittsburgh Panthers, which boast a starting
line averaging more than 229 pounds, from end
to end. Coach Johnny Micheolsen modestly
claims "Depth is a terrific problem.""
The rugged Panthers this year kept 11 of 2a
lettermen but lost their two quarterbacks,
Corny Salvaterra and Darren Lewis, as wen
as seven starters. In addition they lost five
alternate-teamers according to pre-season re
ports. While we're on the football jag. North Caro
lina reported an "exceptionally smaiT turnout
of "only" 300 students for their pre-game pep
Tally before a Tar Heel-Clemson contest earlier
this year.

To the Editor:
Now that the footbaD team has
won a game I am wondering what
the press of the state of Nebraska
will have to say.
Luck?
Poor playing by Kansas State?
Whatever is said, you can be
sure it win be a reversal of last
week's pounding on the door -of
the University in search for some
excuse to .explain away the Husk
ers'' previous losses.
On the .other hand I would be
Inclined to believe that the footban
squad won because it played bard,
because it had the desire to win.
The Daily Nebraskan noted Mon
day that very few persons turned
out to say farewell to the team.
That didnt seem to make much
difference to the boys 'ho got in
to the game.
And from an reports they didn't
make a lot of noise after the game
whooping it up on the occasion
of their first win. Whatever the
motivation for the initial win, I
think it is safe to eay that the
Huskers were batting in their own
league against Kansas State. One
local sportswriter had it pegged
right when he said that if we want
a top notch team well have to
go out and pay for it
This morning Monday J be print
ed the letters from people around
the area who seem to agree with
bim ia essence. So do X.
But no matter what, when the
Huskers are playing teams equal
to them they H play their hardest
to win and I think we ought to
they've shown that football comes
before spirit.

physic as well as the psychic will
moUify.
After the mind is purged of con
vention and the body cleansed of
its effects, naps can be taken.
That is, when the senses lose the
reception they're used to getting,
rest will be possible. A good old
fashioned lemonade, breeze, and
porch swing type of rest- The
whole body is out of it; nil. . .
Then, after a while of peace, a
record of the past can be played
so that an understanding of the
trouble will be gained. That is,
hamburgers and television can be
observed in new lights. It can be
seen that they bind tightly. Old
windows of conformity can be
opened so that one can get a
glimpse into new Moms of heresy.
Old ideas can be looked at in dif
ferent perspectives; and there
fore, new insights wffl be gained.
A recognition of the common prac
tices wfll be achieved, and that
win lead to aa understanding of
previous action.
To understand is to know the
truth. And to know the truth is
to be free, they say. Oh, for that
freedom!
Then, after the personal renais
sance it's ' time to get back into
circulation. The picnic's over. Yoa
can't stay a hermit all your life. . .
that just isn't done. My word. And
besides, escape never nets tran
quillity; neither does it bring about
change. We're an obligated to stay
ia and pilch. The forces are just
weakened when one leaves. But
you wfll come back with new out
looks on society. And you win stin
practice what you have examined
and criticized, but you wfll know
why you do it, perhspt. That's the
main thing. Then some other time
wbea you feel especiaDy intelli
gent, yoa can run off and hash
the whole thing out again. But not
very often, please. Once a year
is nice.
t
I couldn't be sunt the guy was
telling the truth. But whatever the
esse was this hitch hiker told me
he "was one cf those Nebraska
hars."
He a.lded, "I don't know why.
I guess there just isn't anythir.g
h?:e for a guy like me to be at
tracted to."
Brother! What an attitude. I
asked him whether he had ever
been to the Sandhflls or out to
the Nebraska Natiraal Fores. I
wendered whether hs had ever
been to the great natural fsris:
a'.crg the Missouri River or to the
rcllirg lands along the Loup a-d
North Platte Rivers.
'X o o o p e"
he said just
as cock sure
of himself as
anyone I' v e
ever come
cress.
"And furth
er more,'" he
sneered. "I
j i'i drn't intend to
f ' J get out in the
wilds o! the
state and be
lost t9 civilization."
That W3s putting it mildly. This
gtiy should have been left in the
slums of the deep South where
he admitted having come from.
"What Tm lookir.g for is night
life." Then he went into this spiel
about driving from Newark to the
Bronx every weekend when be was
in New Ycrk City. That must have
been a nice ride. I suspect he tock
the subway, or whatever Xew
Yorkers have to get around on. I
suggested he go to Ross's in Oma
ha for a good time. "Xcvcr heard cf
it," says he.
I suppose his attitude is typical
of most Xebraskans who don't give
a care about their borne state.
Even guys like this bird who aren't
native sans "and I'm far from one)
can appreciate their slate if they
take the time to sit behind a V
Eight and look around.
Despite the bumpy roads and
the crowded highways, there's
plenty to see in Xebraska.
But whoTl vxxa for the fia t.
Count "em. On this hand.
For upper class men only. That
great American journalist Freder
ick T. Daly Three left the legacy of
the Dirty Old Man t'Me floating
around the campus.
Xow since a feflow travel
ed mine has claimed that I'm the
biggest Bohemian in appear
ances, not cationaiityt on the
campus I would think there
would be "a challenger" to this
somewhat dubious title. Day in
and day out I see sloppy people
walking around the campus.
KOTC people let their shoulder
straps Can over their collars and
lapels, girls, unaware of their
slate walk around with their
crinolines sh:win;. t""h:rs l?t
their s'lirt cellars paint lp wards,
dess let their bash?s hanj
loose.
In all circles slobs are running
loose. There must be more deserv
ing young men on the campus who
have earned the "Dirty Oid Man"
title. Readers are hinting every
new and then that they have spot
ted a likely cand:date but no tak
ers will shew their facrs in our
cubicle.
Here's whit Mel Tirouk. a
senicr in the Arts Coi.tse wr.tes,

tainly a candidate for if not the

award."
Send him around. Mel.
The what' t-in-store-in-the-fu-ture
department: Men, are you
tired of gettirg turned down by
a girl and then seeing her cut with
some other college Joe? Do you
feel depressed when you're tcld
that a young lady's washing is
more important than a date with
you? Have you been told lately that
"she" can't go out with you cut
her steady wouldn't like it and
then have you seen "her" with
every Joe, Jim and Charley on
the campus?
If so, watch this column for ex
poses on the methods girls use to
void getting dates.
A group of losers have been d
ir.g research on this topic for a
number of weeks cow and have
just about completed ihe report.
You'll be surprised to learn thri
the leader of the staff is condi
tioned to being told "no." Y;-1!
shudder when you hear the "Case
of the Fcur Roses "
Over at Iowa State the Sseak
Thief has struck again. Xo aie
k.iows who be is. but it is known
that he gets into the fraternity
bouses when the doors are left
open.
So now fraternities aren't just
letting pledges ia. they seem to
be catering to sneak thieves. Real
ly, it is a shame that students who
are working their way through col
lege (along with some free riders
had to be deprived of $5M over
the weekend over there.
Well, this old pro may have
moved from Lincoln to Ames. But
what was it She Lincoln Police De
partment said when the Dells were
robbed just recently? "Since this is
a fraternity matter we wont inter
fere?" I know many who say that drink
ir.g is parking lots or double park,
ing ia front of the girls dona or
blocking fsaternity driveways ia aa
effort to get a place to park are
fraternity matters too. Ah, Justice,
thy same is Canfution!
