Nebraska Publicity
Director Kept Busy
By RON GIBSON
Sports Staff Reporter
Perhaps the busiest man in the
athletic department of the Uni
versity of Nebraska is athletic
news director John Bentley.
For John Bentley is the man
in charge of writing news releases
about the Huskers. His Job is
handling the publicity angle of
an university of Nebraska sDorts.
Certainly no one is better quali-
iiea lor me jod tnan Bentley. He
worked for the Lincoln Journal
for twenty years. beEinnins in
1921. After that, he worked for
. we omaha world-Herald for four
years, and finally wound up in his
present position in 1946.
Bentley attended the Univer
sity of Nebraska, graduating in
1924.
As a sportswriter for the Jour
nal, Bentley wrote about such NU
grid greats as Lloyd Cardwell,
Charlie Brock, Sam Francis, and
the Rose Bowl team.
Since coming to the university
as athletic news director, Bent
ley's best source of copy has been
guess who Bobby Reynolds.
One of Bentley's stories about
Reynolds appeared in the Guar'
tterback, a football supplement of
the Sporting News, a national
sports publication.
In addition to handling news
releases, Bentley has other duties.
He makes the arrangements for
speakers who visit the univer
sity. Also, he left Tuesday eve
ning for Minneapolis to handle
the publicity for the Nebraska
Minnesota football game.
The newest project undertaken
by the energetic Bentley is the
addition of a sound track to the
movies of the Cornhusker foot
ball games. Bentley said the photo
lab is working overtime to put
out the sound movies so that
Husker football fans can see them
on Monday evenings after the
Saturday games. Bentley believes
that Nebraska is the first school
in the country to have sound
movies of their football games.
The fact that UN is a pioneer
in this field is another example
of John Bentley's ingenuity and
energy.

The Benehwiarmet
By MARSHALL KUSHNER
Assistant Sports Editor
The Nebraska high school football picture has reached a crucial
peak lor teams contending for state honors. The Lincoln high Links,
currently riding atop most sports polls throughout the state, meet
the Omaha North Vikings.
It was just three weeks ago that we pointed to this game and
predicted the winner to ride on the road to the mythical state prep
championship. Now more than ever does it become apparent that
our ideas were not too far off.
The Links have established a 5-0 record thus far in the season
and it is almost safe to say they will pluck off Missouri Valley
conference honors.
The Links took Omaha Central 32-13 in the opener, Sioux
City East 14-0, Sioux City Central 13-0, Northeast's Rockets 26-0
and the Scottsbluff Bearcats, 27-6.
Omaha North's record shows victories over Grand Island 24-14,
Omaha Tech 39-0, Creighton Prep 18-0 and Thomas Jefferson 20-6.
The Vikings have yet to face their stiffest inter-city competition,
Omaha Central and Omaha South.
The Links' coach, Bill Pfeiff, and the Vikings' head mentor,
Carol Gast, have both indicated that they will pull all punches they
have when the carnival begins at the Lincoln oval stadium.
Gast has been a strong pupil of the T-formation while at
North and he has been hinting to the press that he might just
throw in a few single wing plays.
Taking everything into consideration, especially the fact that
the Links will be playing on their home field, it looks like LIN
COLN HIGH 20, OMAHA NORTH 12. '
Just a note to Bill Glassford. You're a superb defense against
many auacics on college loothau coaches emphasizing only victories
and completely ignoring upkeep of educational standards by col
lege athletes.
In our estimation,' you're the finest and fairest minded coach
in the country. You demand great respect for not allowing your
personal moral standards to be altered at any cost even that of
a losing football team.
No matter what the popular conception may be, a football
player has to be smart on and off the gridiroa For when the pres
sure is on, it is the intelligent athlete that can keep his head and
master the situation. .
The Cornhuskers have been battling bad breaks all season. First
it was Bobby at Curtis, then the opener indicated the "finite
experience factor that had yet to be conquered.
What has happened the past few days cannot be con red
the breaks as far as we can see. It is a case of negligence an un
called for educational complacency.
So Viva la Bill Glassford and may the coaches and presidents
of some of our great American institutions take a look at coaches
like Glassford for a rebuttal to their attacks.

Carodine Booted Off Varsity
Squad; Bordogna To Play Half
BY ARLEY BONDARIN
Sports Staff Reporter
The second major development
within two days involving per
son el of Nebraska's football team
occurred Tuesday when it was
announced that Tom Carodine had
been dismissed from the squad.
Coupled with the departure of
Don Vogt from school, Carodme's
loss has dealt a heavy blow to the
Husker hopes for the future. Both
of the boys are sophomores and
were counted upon heavily in fu
ture Nebraska plans.
Failure to regularly attend
classes plus his failure to attend
Monday's practice session, were
given as the reasons for the drop
ping of the flashy ex-Boys Town
ace.
Carodin'g dismissal Is a fol
. low through on Coach Bill
Glassford's statement of last
week, threatening with dis
missal any football players who
continually cut classes without
legitimate excuses. Coach Glass
ford did not indicate whether or
not any other Varsity players
would come under immediate
disciplinary action.
Glassford explained, "The Uni
versity of Nebraska is interested
only in young fellows with a de
sire to improve themselves in the
classroom and deeply interested
in the moral fibre of a sound
football organization."
Carodine, All-State in football
and basketball, had been the lead
ing ground gainer for the Huskers
until his injury in the Kansas
State game. His versitility and
high school record had earned
him nation, wide recognition in
many pre-season ratings.
However, the showing of John
Bordogna, converted quarter
back, against Penn State seemed j
they have relegated the highly !
touted sophomore speedster to j
a supporting role la the Husker i
offense.
The loss of Carodine, Vogt, and
Nick Adduci within a matter of
days plus the absence of Bobby
Reynolds from the lineup has put
a crimp in the once heralded
depth of the Husker backfield.
Bordogna, on the strength of his
fine performance last Saturday,
will continue to run at the right
halfback post Dick Westin and
Jim Cederdahl have been groomed
to fill in and should prove to be
adequate replacements. !
Meanwhile, the Huskers con
tinued to prepare for Saturday's
contest with the Minnesota Go
phers at Minneapolis. The boys
donned pads yesterday but the
work was not too heavy, as the
team worked on timing.
Heavier work is scheduled for
today, with the emphasis being
placed on pass defense and de-
tense against Minnesota plays.
Reynolds continued to work out
with the team, but his appearance
against the Gophers remains a
question mark, pending the recov
ery of his injured shoulder.
Coach Glassford will take a
squad of 42 to Minnesota for Sat
urday's contest. Frank Simon,
senior end, and Bob Mullen, sen
ior tackle, have been appointed
game captains.
George Paynich witnessed the
practice session without Dads and
is not expected to make the jour
ney to Minneapolis. His leg in
jury has not completely healed

Chilled beys took to the playing
field out at the Ag College as
another big intramural football
day began. Although the weather
was cold the actions of the boys
were not, as sensational passing
and ball catching spotlighted the
intramural games.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon. leaders of
League AI, played the Phi Gam
ma Delta house. The final score
in this game was 26 to 2 in favor
of the Sig Alphs.
The Phi Gam's lone score came
as Jerry Robertson, hard rushing
defensive end for the Fiji's, caught
Joe Gifford of the Sig Alph's in
the end-zone. This gave the Phi
Gama's their 2 points.
For the Sig Alph's their first
score came on a blocked Phi
Gam punt as Bill Shainholtz
rushed into the Fiji backfield.
On the try for the conversion
Joe Gifford successfully passed
to halfback John Leach.
The score standing at 7 to 2
with 15 seconds left to play in the
first half Gifford threw a long 40
yard pass into the waiting arms
of Shainholtz who made a sensa
tional catch for the touchdown.
In the try for the extra point
Gifford attempted a pass which
was knocked down.
In the second half the Sig Alph's
again scored as John Leach un
wound to send a 25 yard pass to
Bill Cronin. The conversion try
was no good.
One of the most sensational
plays of the game came as Leach
passed 15 yards to Cronin. Cronin
being uncontent to just catch the
ball ran another 45 yards for a
touchdown. The try for the extra
point was made this time as Gif
ford passed to Shainholtz.
Defensively the Sig Alph's
shone on the play of ends, Bill
Miller and Jack Scovilie. The
offensive standout of the game
was Bill Shainholts.
The boys of Alpha Tau Omega
played Beta Sigma Psi in a tilt
stimulated by the passing of Ber
nie Scheer of the ATO's.
The final score in this game was
13 to 0 in favor of the ATO's.
The first points of the game
were made as Bernie Sheer inter
cepted a Beta Sig pass and ran
48 yards for a T.D. On the con
version try the ATO's were un
successful. The next touchdown and the
final points scored in the game
was accomplished as Bernie
Scheer passed 14 yards to Al
Blessing. A play combination from
Scheer to Otto Hammond to Doug
Dale accounted for the extra point
and the final score.
The outstanding players of the
winning squad were Bernie Scheer
and Dave Jones, who played a
very fine defensive game.
Last Friday a game was
played between Sigma Alpha
Mu and Delta Sigma Pi. This
game was one of the postponed
games which were rescheduled
into the tournament.
The final score in this tilt was
1 to 0 in favor of the S.A.M.'s
who won it in an overtime. The
overtime was won m this manner
The S.AJVl.'s in a series of pass
er mad 8 yards. On the first
play of the Delta Sig's they made
11 yards but on the other three
plays alloted to .them they lost
their gamed yardage and the
game.
The outstanding players of the
winning squad were Paul Gaiter.
who passed to Ed Handelman for
the winning yardage.
The Tridents forfeited to the
Nebraska Co-op's because of an
insufficient number of players at
the playing field. The final score
was then 1 to 0.

bug-eyed and his big mouth hanging open. He was
immediately sucked into a "shell game" and found
himself making all the quick-trick cigarette tests.
But his native instinct told him that such an
important item as cigarette mildness couldn't
be tossed off lightly. Millions of smokers
everywhere have discovered, too, that there's but
one true test of mildness.
It's the sensible test... the 30-Day Camel
Mildness Test, which simply asks you to try Camels
