! Thursday, November 13, 1952 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN The Lineup De-emphasis Problem Returns To Limelight Chuck Klasek The Problem Returns . . . The problem of de-emphasis of athletics has again come to the fort this week with the announcement by the NCAA that the Uni versity of Kentucky would cancel its entire basketball schedule this rear because of the use of two ineligible players on last rear's sauad. This same problem, alsi was brought back to light when three Uni versity or Maryland grinders revealed that they had been offered bribes to throw a football game. The center of this "scandal" was Jack Scarbath, the Tarp's ace A!l-American quarterback, who immediately notified the police of the bribe at tempt Immediately the err has again cone up, De-f mphastie college athletics." And this cry shook many dignitaries of the sports world who seem to think that progress had been made on the greatest of athletic problems. Hannah Criticized . . . But in a recent column, Paul Zimmerman, snorts editor of the Los Angeles Times and long one of the leading opponents of athletic de-emphasis, has arrived at the crux of the problem. He lays the blame directly on such men as Dr. John A. Hannah, president of Michigan State University. Mr. Zimmerman said. "Did yon read where President John A. Hannah of Michigan State stated the other day that the moves of the American Council on Education are beyond the comprehen sion of the sports reader? How right he is. Bnt it isn't qnite like the president said. What the average reader doesn't savvy is hew Dr. Hannah ran preach de-emphasis on the one hand while over emphasizing at his own university on the other. If yon hivent looked lately, his Michigan State football team, after being rated No. 2 in the country a year ago, is currently listed No. 1 in the na tion. Now the good doctor may think that proves nothing, bnt to the sports readers and yon can't fool 'em, doc it means there is qnite a program of gridiron emphasis going on at East Lansing these days." And then in our own words may we add l';at this is the same Dr. Hannah that fervently preaches the de-emphasis of college ath letics on one hand and on the other has a roster of football warriors who hail from all pprts of the nation. This is the same Dr. Hannah, who emphatically states that his football teams will never partici pate in a bowl fiame, yet who was instrumental in adding the name of Michigan State to the list of Big Ten Conference schools a con ference which has a long-term contract with the Pacific Coast Con ference to yearly appear in the Rose Bowl on January 1st. What Has Been Done? . . . Thus far three steps have been taken in the problem of de-em- phasis ol athletics, tirst, a group ot university residents were asked to study the problem and make its report and recommenda tions to the nation's schools.

Dennis Emanuel, who plays both offensive and defensive end for the Scarlet eleven, was declared ineligible to play the last two games of the current season. The junior wingman started on offense and defense against Kan sas last week. He was named to the Associated Press all Big Seven team last year as a sophomore. The dean's office has in formed the athletic department that Dennis Emanuel, outstand ing defensive end for the past two years, has been declared ineligible because of scholastic deficiencies,' Glassford an nounced. Offensice starters at the end po sitions this week will be An iy Loehr and either Emil Radik or Bill Schabacker. Schabacker and George Paynich, senior two year Jetterman at end, was counted out for the season when Counnr Lincoln Journal IN FINAL HOME GAME Kay Curtis, 8-foot. 200-pound senior from Laurel, has been one of the Huskers' most dependable front line blockers. The 11-year-old offensive guard was singled out for praise by Nebraska coach. Bill Glassford, following the Husker 14-13 onset of Kansas last Saturday. Curtis has started at the left guard spot In every Scarlet contest this year. k 4 i Uc ' '"' i either Jerry Yeager or Ken Moore Cjr ? t J.v u wui hold down the defensive wing spots, the Husker coach said.

The Huskers went through soma tough scrimmage plans Wednes day, with the stress on defense. The main threat which Min nesota offers is in the form of AH - America candidate Paul Giel, whose season's efforts are comparable to those of John Bordogna of Nebraska. Giel has carried the ball 148 times in seven games for a rush- tip ing gain of 492 yards, an average a perforated ulcer laid him just before the opening game with ,of 3.3 yards per try.
