From reams of copy already written on the subject and from some information gleaned by our own efforts here is what seems to b the present status of the matter. One thing is definite in the coaching situation at Nebraska. Biff Jones is not returning to Lincoln in any capacity. His long awaited letter of refusal, ad dressed to the Athletic Council, finally arrived and has been duly recorded. The Biffer shows no ill spirit, wishing the council success in later endeavors, but makes it clear that he is not coming back. Speculation over the next Husk er head eoaeh is rampant. A con sensus of the various opinions shows that Potsy Clark and Howie Odell are the two most frequently named possibilities. This line of thoaght is further heightened by the absence of two members of the Athletic Conncil. John Selleek and Ad Lewandowski, from their campus office quarters.

Odell, Yale coach this year, is a young man a midwest product, for he went to high school in Sioux City, and has already es tablished a place for himself among the topflight football tutors. Potsy Clark, Husker coach the past season, has considerable backing for a return engagement. He Is familiar with the athletic setup on the campus and his abiN ity with football players is un questioned. The way he brought the Huskers to a roaring late sea son drive which enabled them to finish their play with four straight wins cemented his fame as one of the nation's most capable gridiron mentors. Other men who have been mentioned for the post are George Sauer and Bernie Masterson, for mer Husker gridders; Henry Fmka of Tulsa, Bo McMillin of Indiana, Lonnie Stiner, another home state boy now coaching at Oregon State, and even Bernie Bierman, sage of the Northlands, who concluded a disappointing year at Minnesota. No matter who is chosen, the choice must be made soon. Spring football practice is not too far away, and the head coach must be on hand to get a line on the men who will constitute the Scar let varsity eleven in 1946. Help Needed . . .
