athletes off campus by mem

their representatives (alumni
included) is not permitted.
Coaches 'will continue to be
permitted to accept invitations
to speak at off-campus meet
ings. Furthermore, no school, staff
member or alumnus will be al
lowed to pay, or arrange to have
paid, the travel expenses of any
prospective student visiting its
campus. The "excessive -entertainment"
clause also was bol
stered. The only thing now per
mitted will be to put the boy up
in a dormitory and provide his
meals,
"Any violation of this section
by a member institution, alumni
or friends of the school, with
or without the knowledge of
the institution, will render the
individual concerned ineligible

representatives added.

The finals of the 1951 football season are in; the total yardages
and scores are posted, and the last recommendations for outstanding
players are turned in. We Mop to take stock of ourselves and our
team here at N.U.
Admittedly we have experienced a bad season, judging solely
from the win-loss column. However, let us consider another view
point or two and perhaps we shall not feel so bad about this
football team.
A comparison of the preceding season's team and the latest is
of great interest
In 1950, we had a weak defensive setup and an extremely
powerful offensive unit We won games by ontscoring the other
teams, even though we were unable to stop the opponents from
scoring.

proposal of the Big Seven confer
ence staging a post-season game
of senior gridders of the Big
Seven to play seniors of the
Southwest conference in place of
the Cotton Bowl. The game
would probably start in 1952.

In 1950 we had some outstanding experienced seniors and a
quarterback who was very capable with the "T" formation.
In 1951 there were only a few of the experienced personnel re
maining from which to build a team of twenty-two players. Except
for five seniors and 11 juniors, the balance were underclassmen with
only limited experience in college footbalL
In addition to the above factors, we were constantly being:

our offensive team all through the season.
