The most interesting thing to come out of the much ballyhooed
Board of Regents and Athletic Board meeting was the selection of
a committee with instructions to evaluate the current status of the
University's athletic program and report to a joint meeting of the
two groups sometime in the future.
We had expected that powderkeg- we spoke about Her to
txplode at Saturday's session, but evidently the two jroups were
not swayed by the emotional binge that is in progress in coming
to a quick and more decisive verdict.
With all the newspaper talk about secret meetings between
player representatives and Board members, we had expected more
action, especially after we had heard that something big was in
the wind.
THE DECISION to go slow was a good one from many stand
points. First of all was the fact that Coach Glassford was not in
town to face the charges that are obviously being hurled. Secondly
such sorts of goings-on wouldn't make the University of Nebraska
look too good in the eyes of the nation.
This doesn't mean that we aren't going to see an explosion at
all, but it should be much milder than originally anticipated.
Following is the complete statement, agreed upon unanimously
by the Board of Regents and the Athletic Board:
perly balanced athletic program.
I. Definition of the Univer
sity's program of intercollegiate
athletic as follows:
1. The University's program of
intercollegiate athletics, properly
controlled and administered, has
a rightful place in the activities
of the University and the state.
2. Administration and control
of the athletic program is a re
sponsibility of the University to
be fulfilled as prescribed by
University authority and in
strict compliance with the rules
of the intercollegiate athletic
conference and accreditation
associations to1 which, the Uni
versity belongs.
3. By virtue of its dedication
to the cause of higher learning
the University is pledged to
maintain its athletic program
without compromising academic
standards or the young men who
participate in varsity sports.
4. As an agency created by
and responsible to University
authority, the Board of Inter
collegiate Athletics seeks to op
erate a program of intercollegi
ate athletics which can be suc
cessfully tested in the lights of
academic scrutiny, financial in
vestigation, . and .American
sportsmanship, as .defined, by
propriety, conference rules and
accreditation regulations
5. The present athletic pro
gram of the University can be
strengthened within these te
nents without in any way ob
scuring the advancement of the
cause of higher learning as the
prime objective of the Univer
sity. n. REQUIREMENTS THE
Board of Intercollegiate Ath
letics shall seek to fill in selec
ting a new Director of Ath
letics: T. The qualities of executive
leadership, especially in dealing
with the organization and per
sonnel of the athletic depart
ment 2. The ability to attract the
confidence and goodwill of Ne
braska communities.
3. The ability to make clear
that the University wants to ery
roll young men of outstanding
athletic ability, capable of doing
University academic work, who
. graduate from high schools in
Nebraska and the surrounding
areas from which students fre
quently enroll at the University.
4. The "ability to make clear
that while the University's in
terest, rests, first, in .students
from its own geographic area,
every fair consideration will be
given .to students .of .athletic
ability, capable of doing Uni
versity academic work, from
any area who wish to enroll
at the University.
5. The ability to command the
respect and attention of respon
sible leaders in athletic circles.
6. A willingness to cooperate
with University policy for main
tenance of a clean, strong, pro-

None of the squad members
are divers. In a freshman diving
event, Bill Tagney scored 132
points to nose out Mike Shin
rock and Dean Stoneman.
The largest crowd ever to
watch a basketball game in a
college-owned gymnasium and
the breaking of an NCAA scor
ing record highlighted another
action-packed and hectic week
end of college basketball around
the nation.
Minneapolis was the city and
the defending Big Ten and
NCAA champs, the Indiana Hoo-J
siers and the Minnesota Go
phers, were the teams that
brought in an over-flowing
crowd of 18,872 to watch their
stirring battle in which the once
beaten Hoosiers won out 71-63.
GUARD Bob Leonard, a strong
All-American candidate, and
Forward Dick White were the
Indiana leaders in the Big Ten
clash that involved two of the
nation's top ten teams. It was
Minnesota's second setback of
the season, the other being to
top-ranked Kentucky.
Down in Baton Rouge, Louisi
aina State's All-American cen
ter, Bob Pettit, lowered the
boom on Georgia with an amaz
ing 57-point production to lead
the Bengal Tigers past the out
classed Bulldogs 100-53.
Pettit's remarkable perform
ance broke the NCAA scoring
record aof 51 points for a single
came against "major opposition"
made earlier this season by
Kentucky's Cliff Hagen against
Temple. His total of 23 field
goals also broke another NCAA
record.
ELSEWHERE in the Big Ten
Michigan State startled favored
Illinois 60-59 in a nip-and-tuck
affair when Forward Julius Mc
Coy dropped one in from the
charity line. . Robin Freeman
and Paul Ebert were the big
guns as Ohio State downed Pur
due 91-74. Northwestern
whipped Michigan 72-60 and
Iowa dumped Wisconsin 71-54 in
other conference activity.
In the Big Seven Nebraska
and Kansas continued to share
the conference lead with tri
umphs over Oklahoma and Mis
souri respectively. The Huskers
with Fred Seger and Bill John
son leading the way nipped the
Sooners 76-72 while Kansas ran
wild past Missouri 87-69 as
sophomore whiz Dallas Dojpbs
flipped in 23 points.
Kansas State edged Colorado

the floor in final minute).
Big Gene Stauffer kept the
visitors in the game unjil th
fourth period with his brilliant
floorwork and shooting. Th
kingpin in the Wildcat attack
tallied 23 points.
Seger, the big wheel in th
Husker machine this night, was
hotter than a firecracker. When
the thin man wasn't hitting with
his one-hand jump shot he was
putting on a pob Cousy type of
passing to enable his mates to
rack up easy layup shots.
