There was a lot of truth in
George Sauer's words as he spoke
before Omaha N-Club members
Tuesday night.
Sauer, who was one of Ne
braska's all time grid greats told
members, "It's easy to play foot
ball on a winning team. It takes
ruts to join a loser and it takes
heart and guts to make a winner
out of loser."
If anyone should know it's
George Sauer. He was an AU
American in the thirties when the
liuskers were one of the most
feared teams in the midwest.
Most of the newspapers in the
state have been attempting a scare
campaign which effects the whole
campus.
Floyd Olds in his sports editor
column in the Omaha World
Herald says "Two weeks ago it
was pretty generally understood
that Potsy Clark had full back
ing of the Chancellor and the
Board. He was set to remain as
athletic director and to pick a
man for the head coaching job.
But in recent days the rumor
mill is disputing such conclusions.
We hear that the Chancellor and
Board members have been asking
a lot of questions, of a lot of
people, regarding Mr. Clark. We
have been told that several Board
members, as well as many influ
ential outside "Adivers, have de
cided now that the best cure for
the Husker illness is to bring in
a combination director-coach.".
If this so-called rumor is true
it should be stopped immediately.
No one can expect any man, no
matter if he be Paul Brown, Ray
i;iIlot. or Potsy Clark to remake
a team in the short space of three
months.
Potsy Clark gave all hey had
to improve the Nebraska football
team and given enough time he
will certainly do .just as good a
job, if not better, than any other
man the University can obtain
today.
This column thinks its time the
Athletic Board came out of hyber
nation and made a definite state
ment on the coaching status of
Potsy Clark. Is he is or is he aint
our baby, huh boys?

Coach Pat Patterson's wrestl
ing team will travel to Iowa State
Teachers College Friday afternoon
for an invitational meet.
According to Coach Buel "Pat"
Patterson, Husker mat coach, the
1949 edition of his wrestling team
will be stronger in some weights
and weaker in others.
Patterson is depending on con
ference champion Pee Wee Yam
bor in the 121-128 pound division.
Yambor won the Big Seven con
ference crown last year.
Loss of the Copple boys, Newt
, and Ed in the 145-155 pound di-
visions will hurt, Patterson said.
Patterson has also lost Jerry Cal
: noun in the 165 pound weight
j entry.
Herb Reese, recent winner of
; the intramural wrestling tourney,
' ic 0vnivtiiH In rnnnH nut t h n 175
pound weights. Patterson regards
Reese, who also plays football, as
one of his better prospects.
Mike DiBiase, conference
heavyweight champ, will finish
his last season on the mat squad.
Mike is in good shajx? this year
after bringing his weight down
from 244 to 215 pounds.
Others who will probably help-
out in the heavyweight division
squad includes Mike DiBiase, Pee
Wee Yambor, Herb Reese, Harold
Gillialand, Ken Brown or Louis
Caniglia.
The Husker wrestling mentor
seems to have plenty of material
in the 136 class. This includes
Mickey Sparano who is a letter
man, Jack Tomai, Harold Gillia
land and John Scharf. Sparano
and Tomai are nursing bruises
and probably won't be in top
shape untal after the vacation pe
riod. Two trophies have been given
to the wrestling team one by Earl
Duff and the other by the Copple
boys. The Duff trophy goes to
the wrestler having the highest
point average and the mat man
showing the most improvement.
The Copple trophy goes to the
outstanding freshman wrestler
and the wrestler having the high
est average in the university.
Coach Patterson still wants
some men interested in wrestling.
He can especially use some fresh
men wrestlers.
Inter-Varsity Christian fellow
ship will meet for a special
are Howard Doer, Dick Goeglein i Christmas program in Room 315 of
and Sophus Larsen. Goeglein,
suffered a rib injury during the
; latter part of the football season,
i He will probably start serious
I workouts during the vacation pe-
: riod.
I Louis Caniolia. 121 pound in
tramural champion, has also been
listed as a strong candidate for
varsity honors. Caniglia along
with Ken Brown and Pee Wee
j Yambor will form the nucleus of
the featherweight class.
Patterson listed his probable
j team for the invitational meet at
Iowa State Teachers College. The
the Union Thursday night at 7:30.
Mr. John Campbell, Omaha Medi
cal school, will be the speaker.
Members will go caroling after
the meeting on a special bus.

racked up wins over Detroit and
j Marquette.
i Saturday the men will entrain
for Cincinnati for their Saturday
1 game with Cincinnati University.
Cincinnati, led by stellar forward
Ralph Richter, is among the top
I teams in the midwest. "Sport
Life" in a pool taken ol the na
! tion's top coaches rates Cincin-
nai twenty-fifth in the nation.
! Coach Good plans to stay in
) Cincinnati Saturday night and
S move to Pittsburg Sunday. There
j they will meet Duqucsne in a
i Monday night game. Duqucsne,
strong rival ol Cincinnati, was
under par last year but is look
ing forward to a much more suc
cessful season during 1948-49.
Final game of the trip will
be Tuesday, with the Husker
five invading Cleveland for a
game with Western Reserve. The
Coach Good will probably start ;
the same five used in the first
three games. This will have i
Retherford and Maiacek at for- j
and Cech guards. The improve- 1 4
i ment shown by Husker reserves a
I in the past two weeks may cause J
a change at any time. The deadly
shooting of Ken Anderson may A
mean promotion before too long, j
Coach Good has been drilling
the squad on a fast break often- j A
sive which has not been de- j
veloping too well in early games. ,
Also receiving attention during , A
practice sessions is the Huskers' jl
set offense and maneuvering the
ball from set positions.
