Board Of Regents
Grants-ln-Aid
By GARY FRANDSEN
Sports Editor
The University of Nebraska's publicity-packed athletic situa
tion in many respects has been caught in the middle of a whirl
pool the last few. months. Everything and everyone has been going
around and around with nothing being quite done on the whole
Situation.
On Wedesday the menacing whirlpool was slowed down some
what as several definite policies pertaining to the future of Corn
husker athletics chiefly involving football, were laid down and
officially approved by the Board of Regents.
Probably the most important accomplishment which came out
of Wednesday's session was the adoption of a new grants-in-aid
progTam to provide for aid for 109 athletes at a cost of approxi-
This should have been done several years ago. The Huskers
mately $89,100 a year.
have long rested on the bottom of that department in the Big
Seven Conference. The old grants-in-aid plan has long been out
moded especially connected with football. As the policy continued
to remain the same, athletes, who might ordinarily go to Nebraska,
were going everywhere but there.
THE LONG-needed new plan simply is this: There will
now be 74 football grants-in-aid instead of usual 55. This is an
noticable increase of 24 which brings Nebraska "a little above the
middle bracket" in comparison with other Big Seven schools.
Other sports have been affected by the new policy. It pro
vides for 20 in basketball, 12 in track and three in baseball. No
provision for aid in such sports as swimming, gymnastics, wrestl
ing, tennis or golf is included in the new setup at present.
The new system has junked the old "Job" setup. Present plans
call for $60,000 of the proposed $89,100 to come from the athletic
department with the rest from friends of the University.
Coach Bill Glassford has previously stated that requirements
for a grant-in-aid at the Cornhusker institution will coincide with
Big Seven rules.
THUS A potential football player or any athlete involved in a
grant-in-aid must rank in the upper two-thirds of his graduating
class or if he fails to qualify on this requirement, ht can take Uni
versity placement tests and providing he falls in the upper 50
cf this group, he is eligible for a grant-in-aid.
All football grants-in-aid will be recommended by Glassford
after a detailed screening process. For final approval they will go
to the Committee on General Scholarship Awards. To hold the
grant-in-aid an athlete must maintain the University standards for
eligibility.
THERE WAS other action Wednesday. The Board of Regents
officially okayed their support of Coach Glassford, approved con
tract renewals of John Bentley, publicity director; L. F. Klein, as
sistant director and concessions manager; Ike Hanscom, assistant
coach; Bob Davis, backfield coach; and Ray Prochaska, end coach;
and also approved the temporarily assignment of A. J. Lewandow
ski as athletic director.
The adoption of the new grants-in-aid policy at Nebraska is a
step in the right direction toward getting- the Huskers back on the
road to the top, a position tbey once enjoyed and ean again in time.
Next on the agenda should be the selecting of a permanent
athletic director, the gentleman who will have much to say on how
soon Nebraska football reaches its pre-war peak. The wheels are
now in motion thanks to Wednesday's long-awaited action.

Regents Hear
Report On Use
Of Novocain
The Board of, Regents took
steps Wednesday to clear up con
troversy over the use of novocain
for University athletes as charged
by an editorial of an Alliance
newspaper.
The board received a full re
port from Dr. S. I. Fuenning. di
rector of the University Health
Service, explaining the program
for the care of athletic injuries
and the policy ss to the use of
novocain.
The report stated that the med
ical department has condemned
the administration of novocain by
individuals other than physicians
and that it has never authorized
the use of novocain to ret an ath
lete back to the gome after an
acute injury.
The report also said that the
Health Service was convinced
that if any unauthorized injec
tions of novocain wese given, they
were administered over two years
ago by a trainer who is no longer
with the University.
The Regents appointed a com
mittee of four to pass on the re
ports to the editor of the Alliance
paper, Gene Kemper, to deter
mine if he still desired a hearing

story man?"
"Your father. If you don't be

has a second."

Two consistantly strong teams,
Sigma Phi Epsilon and Phi Delta
Theta, shot into a tie for first
place in the Fraternity A and
All-University standings Thurs
day. Each sports an 8-0 record
in their respective leagues.
The Sig Eps, the scourge of
League I, have mowed all op
position in the first round of
play and enter the second canto
with a good chance to go all the
way. Their top games have been
against the Atos, whom they beat
35-34 and the Delts in a 34-32
battle.
The Phi Delts, the frontrunner
of League II, have burned up the
league with high scores in four
of their games. Three of these
scoring- sprees were against weak
opposition, but their, most de
cisive win was. over a. strong
Theta Xi team 58-48.
In third place the ATOs look
to be one of the top contenders
for the crown this season. They
have lost only to the Sig Eps
and have run past all other
opposition except the sixth place
Sigma Chis who came within
one point.
'
THE DUBBERS and Ag Jok
ers hold down fourth and fifth
places respectively, and have
9-0 and 8-0 records to remain
the class of the Independent
leagues.
Sigma Chi stands alone in
sixth place and even though
trrey have three losses, their

tough opposition merit their
rank.
Pioneer Coop and the Hay
seeds hold seventh and eighth
spots respectively. Pioneer sports
a 7-0 record and the Hayseeds
have amassed a 7-0 mark, but
against relatively weaker oppo
sition. Beta Theta Pi and Phi Kappa
Psi are in a deadlock for ninth
spot. Each holds a win over the
other.
Sigma Chi B, the barn burner
of the B leagues have a grasp
on 10th spot. Their high scor
ing and good floor play have
been the best in the B group.
IN THE Fraternity A ratings
Beta Sigma Psi and Theta Chi
stand in the eighth and ninth
spots. The Beta Sigs moved up
while the Theta Chis dropped
after hitting a couple of bad
nights.
Farm House and Pi Kappa
Phi are deadlocked for tenth
place to round out the top ten.
In the B leagues, it is well
cut and dried for positions below
the third and fourth slots. Sigma
Chi sits in the top rung while
last year's champion, Alpha
Gamma Rho, and Beta Theta Pi
are tied for second place. Each
has a 7-0 record to lead their
leagues.
IN THE Independent leagues,
the Dubbers, Ag Jokers and
Hayseeds hold down the top
three steps with Presby House
and the unbeaten Dorm Bullets
close behind in the next two
notches.
No one will deny that the next
three weeks will decide a lot of
things and will cut a lot of
throats. It will be dog-eat-dog
from here on out.

Good's Club Needs Victory Badly
To Stay In Big Seven Title Chase
Saturday night will be one of
reckoning for Coach Harry
Good's University of Nebraska
basketball team. A win over their
rugged foe, the Kansas Jayhawks,
is a "must" if the Huskers want
to stay in the thick of the scram
ble for Big Seven honors.
Nebraska is currently resting
in third place with a 4-2 while
Dr. Phog Allen's Jayhawks are
settled in second on a 5-1 mark,
having losing only to surprising
Colorado, a team that knocked
the Huskers off 75-67 in Lincoln
Monday night.
The first-place Buffs are idle
Saturday, but swing back into
their bid for their first Big Seven
basketball title with a Monday
night skirmish with Iowa State.
Other Saturday action includes
the Cyclones at Kansas State and
two non-conference games, Hous
ton at Missouri and Oklahoma at
Oklahoma A&M.
Good will probably start the
usual five in an attempt to get
the Scarlet back in winning style
after two straight setbacks. This
means Don Weber and Willard
Fagler at the forwards, Bill John
son at center and Charlie Smith
and Fred Seger at the guards.
The Jayhawks will open with
Harold Patterson and Larry Dav
enport at the forwards, big B. H.
Born at center and Allen Kelley
and sophomore Dallas Dobbs at
the guards.
NU Mermen Busy
Friday, Saturday
Coach Hollis Lepley's Univer
sity of Nebraska swimmers hit
the pool for two home dual
meets this weekend. The first
is this afternoon at 3 p.m. when
they entertain Colorado and
Kansas.
Saturday afternoon the Husker
mermen take on the Jayhawks
again beginning at 2 p.m.
Several varsity marks were
broken in their recent loss to
Iowa State. The medley relay
team of Lloyd Reed, Dick Hlidek
and Gordon Peterson swam the
distance in 3:11.4 to better the
varsity mark of Fenton-King-Draper
in 1948 of 3:14.5.
Cal Bentz also broke two
Nebraska records in the 120-yard
individual medley and the 440
yard freestyle. Bentz swam the
former in 1:16.8 to break Buele
Balderson's mark of 1:17.6 and
covered the latter in 5:09.4 to
erase the 5:15.4 record set by
Jim Pixley in 1935.
Going into the weekend meets
Bentz is the top scorer with 32
points. Sophomore Dick Hill is
second with 18 followed by Dick
Hlidek, 17; Lloyd Reed, 15; David
Gradwohl, 11; and Gordon
Peterson, 8.
Other scorers include George
Gohde, Jack Trabert, Bob Sand
stedt and John Lightle.

How College Students Can Get More Information
long before they graduate and at no cost
through this newly developed NAS career plan
If you're like most college students,
you probably haven't made up your
mind what you're going to do after
graduation. There's no more reliable
source of advice than your own Col
lege Placement Bureau.
To further clarify your thinking, to
help you decide where your particular
skills will find the greatest opportuni
ties by comparing one field against
another, NAS has opened the way for
you to secure first hand information
from leading companies in the fields
that interest you most.
NAS can do this because, as adver
tising representatives of more than
700 college newspapers, we are in
daily contact with many of the most
important and progressive companies
in America. These companies not
only constantly seek college-trained
men and women, but often plan far
ahead in competing with one another
for the most promising prospects.
So, you see, this new NAS career
plan is a service both to college stu
dents and business leaders. Here's
how it works:

course, we can't guarantee a response.
We're merely volunteering our serv
ices as a link between the campus
and the business world. But in many
cases you'll hear directly from lead

chosen.
Their information should first of
all give you a practical, down-to-earth
picture of what the industry itself
offers in the way of a career. Sec
ondly, at the company level, it may in

working conditions, pay, and chances
for promotion. Finally, filling in this

that would otherwise never have
come your way.
So act now. If you're a junior, or
even a sophomore, it's not too soon

business career. The sooner you start,
the more information you collect, the
better your chances to find the right
job after college.
