In The Stands
Collegiate
Game Less
interesting?
Br GEORGE PAYNICH
Sports Editor
After the came and coneratula
tipns were over Saturday, we
joined the ranks of the fans,
mostly female, who yearn for
the return of one-platoon foot
ball.
The Miami game cemented this
attitude as far as we -are con
cerned. The present game seems
to lack something. We can't put
our finger on the main cause,
but the lack of speed and excite
ment is easy to spot.
THE TELLING effects of 60
minute football is too much for
15 men to hide, no matter how
much they desire to play the
game. The lack of substitutions
has naturally slowed down the
came; no team in the nation has
as yet developed eleven iron-
men.
One Terr interestinr observa
tlon to ns In Saturday's tilt was
the complete absence of Jim
Oliver, especially after Oliver
had played the complete came
at center arainst Pitt. The new
setup has produced some mighty
strange situations as well as up
sets.
We realize that football as
played today produces a real
man and a real ballplayer. It
produces a coach who knows the
fundamentals of the game, one
who can go both ways.
STRICTLY FROM the spect
tator viewpoint, however, we be
lieve the professional football
game will outdraw the colleges
because it' has more to offer.
The collegiate game has gone
back to its old tug-of-war play,
but the pros continue to grow
with the wide-open style. It is
our belief that the one-platoon
system will kill the game; there
fore we don't believe it will be
around for more than a few
years.
IN ADDITION to the slowing
down of the game, the other big
drawback is the lack of squad
participation in the games.
After retting batted around all
week and never seeing action on
Saturdays it is understandable
why so many fine ball players
have decided to call it quits. No
one wants to warm the bench.
Then again this could be one
f the good points of the game,
it gets rid of the less ambitious
ballplayer who would be wasting
his time and what remains is the
ballplayer who really loves the
game from more than a mone
tary viewpoint. After all there
are other ways to work your way
through college.
HUSKER NOTES The Husker
single-wing died at Kansas State.
What verified this observation is.
the complete absence of quarter
back George Gohde. Under the
single-wing Gohde had been
counted on heavily. Under the T
he has been shuttled so far down
that you can't even find him at
Ag School on Friday nights.

his power running than sprint

Fatally Hurt
Kansas State suffered its first
fatality in intramural athletics
last Wednesday when John Hol
den, 18 year old agriculture
freshman ,died as the result of a
collision in mid-air trying to gain
possession of a forward pass.
The tragic incident was the
only death ever to be the result
of their program since its found
ing In 1920.
HOLD EN WAS knocked uncon
scious at 4:50 p.m. and never re
gained consciousness. He was
pronounced dead at 5:32. The

Holden was gasping frantically
for breath and that his tongue
had to be held to prevent him
from choking.
Artificial respiration was given
I him Immediately after the acci
dent until the respirator arrived.
After five minutes his pulse was
so weak that it could scarcely be
detected.
OFFICIALS AT the Kansas
State student health, said the
' death was the result of an acute
traumatic injury meaning that
the force of the blow caused a
heart stoppage.
Despite the unfortunate acci
dent, the fraternity division of
intramural football will continue
as scheduled.

Iowa State IS Missouri 6
What happened? That's prob
ably the most frequently asked
question around the Big Seven
circuit after the stunning upset
manipulated by an aroused Iowa
State football aggregation last
Saturday over the next of the
Cornhusker foes, the highly-regarded
Missouri Tigers.
m w 9
IT WAS Homecoming at Ames
and that probably lit the fuse
that blasted any hopes Missouri
once had of ending the long Big
Seven reign of the still powerful
Oklahoma Sooners.
The defeat was a big jolt to
the Tigers and it should put
Don Faurot's club m a venge-
able mood for the next Satur
day's skirmish with Nebraska.
With the Huskers picking- up
their initial win of the season at
the expense of the Miami Hurri
canes this weekend, Bill Glass
ford's squad could be ready to
go places.
The victory was the one thing
the Huskers needed badly if
they had any further ideas of
causing trouble in the Big Seven
race.

' By FRANK SORENSON
Intramural Writer
Only five I-M football games
were played on Friday and one
on Saturday morning, but three
of these games proved to be top
notch thrillers.
In the feature game of the
weekend, two unbeaten teams,
Delta Upsilon and Phi Kappa
Psi, clashed to determine the
League II championship with the
DU's coming out on top by a
15-14 score.
THE GAME, which was prob
ably the cleanest and well played
in the I-M circuit to date, proved
to be a slam-bang affair with the
score all tied up at the end of
regular playing time.
Each team then got the ball for
four downs to determine the win
ner by yardage measurement and
in this extra period the hot DU's
proved to have just enough to
out-down the Phi Psi's.
THE LOSERS crossed the
double stripe twice and con
verted each time for their 14
points and then were held score
less for the remaining t n r e e
frames by the stout DU wall and
tight secondary defense.
The winners picked up six
points in the first quarter and
two in the second, due to a safety
but still trailed 14-8 at the half
way mark.
The winners then pushed across
the game tieing tally late in the
third stanza and were held with
out a point in the fourth.
Tom Tolen passed and ran his
team to the victory while Bob
Bachman and Duane Rankin
were the stars for the losers.
'
ALPHA TAU Omega A won its
fourth win in five starts by blast
ing the Sigma Nu team 45-6. The
victors ran up a 19-0 lead in the
first quarter and then went on
