Up front Kansas has a pair of

flankers and fine receivers. Let

The Jayhawks also are going
after a number two triumph. The

which battled at Missouri last
week end.
Co-captains Doug Thomas and
Jerry Brown are expected to carry
the bulk of the rushing load for Ne

date with Thomas lugging for 229
yards and Brown for 162. They will
join Larry Naviaux and Roy Stin
nett in the backfield. Stinnett
looked his best last season in the
loss at Columbia. Naviaux also
showed signs of returning to sopho
more form.
Harry Tolly, Gene Sandage and
George Cifra are slated for con
siderable duty.
The line will be about the same
as the one that freed Mizzou. Jen

Jerry Wheeler for their fine play
at Missouri. Zentic started for the
first time at a guard position and

TD Club enly one step in right dirertioa .......
Omaha World Herald Sports Editor Wally Provost listed some
very pertinent information concerning the Touchdown Club in his
Thursday column.
Provost indicated that the Touchdown Club was not an immediate
:ure-all and that football success cannot be bought as simply as
material things.
The Touchdown Clubs hope to raise cash with which to augment
e present grant-in-aid program is labeled one of several major
considerations.
The other are:
1. A careful recruiting job by the coaching staff. 1
2. An expert coaching job by the coaching staff. j
J. Flayer willingness to make the sacrifices necessary for sue- j
cess. This includes year-around training and all-out practice effort.
4. Realization by contributors that they aren't buying the right
to tell the coaii whom he must play, nor the right to try to run
his business in any other manner.
I The Daily Nebraskan agrees with Mr. Provost's analysis 100.
The Cornhusker football picture cannot be brightened overnight. Con
tributors to the Touchdown Club should realize that they are help
ing the grant-in-aid program not buying stock in the team.
For what it's worth department
In crystal gazing for the season, our reoord now stands at 17
right and 9 wrong. Last week we missed three contests. One of
our misses was the Missouri-Nebraska game. For a while it looked
as though we might have had a scoop.

Emerson is a growth company entering a terrific spiral of expan
sion from a solid base . . . just the place for the ambitious graduate."
"You're in on the ground floor of a fast growing
established company when you take on a job with
Emerson Electric A vigorous, planned expansion pro
gram in our avionics, electronics, and commercial di
visions makes Emerson distinctly a "growth" company
with wide-open opportunities for young men. We are
at work on a great variety of projects, many of them
fascinating jobs of the next decade.
"And believe me, it's to your advantage to get into
a medium sized company. For one thing, you're in close
touch with top management. They really get to know
you as a.n individual, not as a cog in a giant machine.
They give you a chance, too, to put your own theories
into practice. If you have a new idea, they'll give it a
try. Emerson's future is big. Your future can be big,
too, as an Emerson engineerj"
Harry William's Emerson career is a good example
of the diversification of experience Emerson offers its
engineering personnel. With his M.S. ip Electrical En
gineering under his arm, Harry came to Emerson m
!49 as a Calibration Engineer in production. Next po-
sion Flight Test Engineer and from there onto Flight
Test Project Engineer, to Assistant Development En
gineer and now Production Project Engineer. There
you have Harry William's current career ladder at
Emerson.
Here, in brief, is a sample of Emerson's diversifi
cation of projects: The Commercial Division, estab-'
lished in 1890, ranks among the world's leaders in frac
tional horsepower motors and fans, and includes air
conditioners, heaters, power saws and arc welders. The.
Electronics and Avionics Division has been a leader na-,
tionally since 1940 in the design, development and
manufacture of the very latest fire control systems (for,
example, the supersonic B-58 Hustler bomber), missiles
and rockets (the Honest John, Little John and others),
microwave antennas, supersonic air frame sections like
the F-1 01 Voodoo and mortar locators.
Find out how you can get in on the ground floor of -this
fast growing, medium sized company. Meet Emer
son's engineering representatives and talk it over With
them. If it's impossible to make a date, be sure to write
