Weir Counts Heavily On Frdsh
To Give Cinder Squad Depth
" By CORK BIEMOND
Sports Staff Columnist
Rumor has it that this game of golf is a wonderful opportunity in
disguise for coeds. Not only do its devotees develop superb muscular
coordination and a beautiful suntan, (or burn) but they meet the
most interesting people on golf courses.
Supposedly the winner of a match completes the prescribed
course In the least number of strokes, bet I am here to tell you that
it isn't always so. It has happened in a number of cases that the
highest score has won, to wit and viz.
Recently I was party to a fine foursome of persons who decided
to play a round of golf. The party consisted of two college men and
two gals. The men were excellent golfers and the girls were not too
skilled at the game.
The girls, however, were playing for much larger stakes than
was visibly apparent at first glance.
One of the young ladies, an attractive blonde, was obviously in
need of some instructions. It. of course, was only natural for our
hero to offer help to this young lady by demonstrating how to hold
the ciuo properly ana now to swing it lor best results.
After some valiant attempts on the part of the fair lady, it be
came obvious that she was leading; up to something- of a slightly more
serious nature. The natural result of this game was of rourse an
other session at golf, and a follow up coke-date.
Strangely enough this disarmingly simple pattern developed into

This illustrative anecdote demonstrates that old adage that there
are more big deals promoted on golf courses accidentally than some

Gymnastic Crew Unsung
Heroes Of College Sports

Sports Staff Reporter
The unsung heroes of college
athletics are the acrobatic mem
bers of the gymnastic team.
While football and basketball
teams work in the' sports spot
light, the gymnastics squad toils
in the background. Yet the sport
is an interesting one and some
times easier to understand than
the two-platoon systems of the
gridiron and cage sports.
Coach of Nil's gymnastic
team is Jake Geier, a former
Husker gymnast himself, has
been with the team as player,

Despite the final score, a large
crowd of Husker fans were badly
disappointed since Nebraska had
been favored to win by 14 points.
Bill Glassford's offensive team
asserted its power on the opening
minutes of the game, but after
that the final outcome of the game
was dependent on his defensive
platoon. '
Tom Carodine received the
Wildcat kickoff on his 15 and
raced it back to the NU 36. Don
Vogt followed suit by grinding out
a first down on the 49. John Bor
dogna completed his first pass to
Carodine on the Kansas State 38.
Nick Adduci was held to a yard
gain, but Carodine picked up eight
yards on an end sweep ,
Nebraska picked up its second
first down as Vogt fumbled and
then recovered on the 26. Carodine
scooted to the 14. Adduci failed
to gain, but Vogt went through
left tackle for another first down
on the Wildcat 11. After Bor
dogna lost a yard trying a quarter
back sneak, Carodine scored on
another sweep of the Kansas State
right side.
A bad snap from center caused

point.

coach or assistant coach since
1936. Coach Geier is full of in
formation about the sport in
general and the Nebraska team
in particular.
A gymnastic meet involves six
events. Each team can have three
men entered in each of the six
events, which consist of the side
horse, the high bar, parallel
bars, rings, tumbling, and the
trampoline. The events are run
off in this order.
Each of the gymnasts per
forms one original exercise.
This must be his cvn idea.
The performer is then judged
by three judges on three points:
form, continuity, an difficulty.
Judging on this basis, the judges
award individual points to each
man. High point man is the
winner of the event.
To get a team champion, the
individual winners are given
team or placement points. These
points are awarded as follows:
six for first, four for second,
three for third, two for fourth,
and one for fifth place. The team
with the highest placement total
is the winner of the meet. These
placement points are also used as
criteria for award-gymnastics let
ters. The requirement for a letter
at Nebraska is 45 points.
Coach Geier will have four
lettermen back from last year.
The numeral winners are Ira
Epstein, Paul Hughes, Bob Yar
wood and Jerry Tnbbs. These
men will be the core around
which the 51-5? squad will be
built. Geier hopes o have eight
on the team.
The squad will choose its cao-

The hardies, which have been
a Nebraska strong point in past
years, will be in the capable
hands of lettermen Don Bedker
and Dan Tolman. When the foot
ball season ends Dick Westln,
sophomore, will also report for
duty as a hurdler. .
In the absence of Jones, mono
gram winner Dale Schnackel will
be Weir's main threat in the 880.
He turned in some excellent clock

lot of scoring power.

The gun pops. The game is over.
It is for the players, but not for
the fans. The rush onto the play
ing field, or the basketball floor,
as the case may be, looks like a
new set of replacements. But
wait they come in droves.
What's the big idea? They're in
the autograph hunting game.
To be sure, this is nothing new.
It's been going on in this country
ever since the words "competi
tion" and "football hero" were
coined.
Yet, in spite of this drove of
screaming, yelling, half-crazed
signature snitchers, no one seems
to stop and think about those who
can't scream, yell and kick up
their heels in the dust of the play
ing field.
Those people, much as they'd
like to express their exuberance
along with everyone else, are in
hibited restrained because
braces, casts and iron lungs hold
them down.
These people are children all
ages who have been crippled be

Every year, Coach Bill Glass-

all over Nebraska. Their requests
range all the way from programs

Dave Noble, student managers for
the University football squad
have a requested project in prog

Four Lettermen Anchor
Husker Wrestling Team
Wrestling coach Al Partin will
rely heavily upon new men to
carry a good share of the load for
the Huskers' tough schedule this
year.
Four lettermen return from last
year's squad. Perry Lietel will
again compete in the 137-pound
class, and Kenny Fisher is back
at 157. Dave Mackie, 167-pounder,
and light heavyweight Harley
Richardson are the other letter
winners to return this year.
Other men showing promise
so far are Jim Ferris, 123, Dar
rell Adamson, 130, freshman
137-pounder Don Scanlon, and
John Scharf in the 145-pound
class.
Coach Partin has hope that the
heavyweight spot will be re7
forced by one of the bigger de
fensive linemen from the varsity
football squad. Partin will tem
porarily withhold the candidate's
name.
The Husker mentor announced
that all positions were open and
urged anyone interested .to come
out for the squad. He believes
that no previous wrestling ex
perience is necessary if a man is
physically capable and is willing
to work.
"Four of last year's ten
termen had no wrestling ex
perience before eomlng to the
University," Partin said. Since
only six Nebraska high schools
carry a wrestling program, a
great many of the wrestlers at
Nebraska start from scratch.

date the athletic type? According
to University WAA records, 41 of
those 100 lovely coeds you take
to Kings dancing participate in
some form of intramural games.
Girls' intramurals have bunt
up tremendously since 1924.
Before that year girls played
interclass games. In 1924 Miss
Lee, director of Women's Physi
cal Education Department, came
to the University of Nebraska
and found there were too few
participants in girls' athletics.
They set up competition between
various organized groups.
About a year ago 15 different
sports were offered with 3,000
registrants- Volleyball brings out
the greatest number of girls.
Every sorority and ten independ
ent groups enter play. Any girl
can get a group together for intra
mural participation.
In addition to intramural com
petition, there are also many sport
clubs. Tennis, swimming, orchesis,
pre-orchesis, rifle, ducKpin, bad
minton, and canoeing clubs are
now organized.
