For UN
Teachers
Because of inability to locate
places to live in Lincoln, 25 uni

trailer camps or rooms in private

In the same predicament are
30 graduate students needed to
help carry on the university's re
search program. They may be
obliged to enroll at other institu
tions, Borgmann said.
Lincoln residents with rooms
and housekeeping privileges for
these people are asked to phone
the university housing office,
2-7631, Ext. 161.

Dallas Williams, University The
atre director, who will direct
Nebraska fought stubbornly,
the team balance and ability
of the Hoosiers.
Led by All-America candidate
George Taliaferro and the haul
charging Harry Jagade, the In
diana eleven outplayed the Husk
ers in every department while
running rough shod over the Me
morial Stadium turf.
Indiana opened the contest and
advanced the pigskin to the Ne
braska 25 before the Huskcr line
held. But Nebraska's offense
sputtered and the Hoosiers again
backed the Scarlet to the goal post
shadows before Cletus Fischer
broke loose on a 32-yard scamper
up the east sidelines to midfield.
Once out of the rut, Nebraska
battled the Hoosiers on even terms
throughout the remainder of the
first period.
Jagade Scores
Taliaferro, Indiana's dusky
triple-threater, intercepted Del
Wiegand's pass at the quarter. On
four plays Coach Bo McMillin's
boys had racked up three succes
sive first downs and had the ball
on the Husker five-yard stripe.
After staging a brief goal line
stand, the Huskers wilted as
Jagade rammed over from a half
yard out for the game's first
points.
Quarterback Rex Grossman's
placement was good to boost the
Hoosiers lead to 7-0.
When both of Grossman's kick
off attempts after the initial
touchdown went out of bounds,
the Huskers took over on the In
diana 40-yard line, but the Hoo
iers stymied Masterson's "T" guid
ed students and took over on the
20 as Myers' kick missed the cof
fin corner and rolled into the end
zone.
Fischer, Myers Spark
Sparked by Fischer, the Husker
T warmed up late in the second
canto. Cletus intercepted a Hoos
ier fumble on the 46 then ad
vanced 39 yards on a pass from
Wiegand. With only seconds re
maining, James "Squat" Myers
flipped at strike to Ralph Dam
kroger on the two-yard line. But
the gun sounded ending the half
(See HUSKERS, Pace 3.)
"Joan," urged that all students
who hold season tickets should
come to the box office this week
to make seat reservations for the
season. The box office will be
open from 12:30 to 5:30 p. m.
every afternoon of this week.
Two Members

Research Staff
Dr. Edward Palmer, head of
the university's department of
business research, has announced
enlargement of the staff to cany
out the work of the department's
business studies. He named Miss
Inez Conley and Mr. Carl Wil
son as new members of the stalL
Miss Conley was formerly en
gaged in statistical research with
the Kansas State Employment
Service, while Mr. Wilson comes
to the department to serve as a
graduate research assistant.

probably include a study of busi
ness fluctuations in Nebraska as

index which the department ha
developed," Dr. Palmer said, "as
well as a proposal for a greatly
enlarged system of reporting
business and economic data from
the various cities of the state."
