The Pause That Refreshes S

Dear All,
Well once again here is the football season. It seems like only
nine months sgro that the boys were kicking the pigskin around. Oh
yes, I was just informed that I should look to the future and not to
the past.
Only one week of the 1954 season has gone by, but the newspaper
polls are already out, and at the. top of all of them 'are the ever
powerful Soocers. Seems Coach Bud Wilkinson has "scraped up" just
enough talent to rate number one in the football polls. Could it be
that I heard that the team might LOSE a game this season? Probably
just a false rumor I
I happened to see a few of the forecasters AU-American football
teams, and since everyone is getting into the act, why shouldn't 1?
My choice for unanimous AU-American is Ludlow Kockolovltz. You
eay that you have never heard of Ludlow? Few of us have, but heck,
11 I gave him enough publicity dont you think by the end of the
season he could possibly be a unanimous AU-American? What I
mean to say is are the AU-Americans really AU-American or are they
just last year's publicized players. Probably all of us have different
views on this mttter.
' Just a note to all you would-be athletes. Did you know that the
grand prize for the football team this season is a trip to Hawaii to
play the University of Hawaii? Just think of those wonderful days
and nights lying on the beautiful Hawaiian shores. So, if you think
you can withstand three months of skull crushing, innumerable injuries,
and just' plain hard toil, I hardly suggest that you go out for the
Husker eleven immediately. It might help if you were 6'i", weighed
240 pounds and could run the 100 in 10 seconds flat.
A bit more on the serious side, it seems to this reporter that what
he has seen of the Cornhusker football team is very good, there
seems to be a great deal of spirit among the players, and competition
between the men for the various positions is very stiff. I believe
that if the student body really gets behind find pushes the team, and
shows the players and coach Glassford that we are really rooting for
them, then Nebraska should have a successful season.
Coach Glassford seems to be very optimistic this year, tfo plans
on wearing a $100 Stetson hat, a gift of the '53 squad, to aU the football
games; we all have seen what happens to a footbaU coaches hat
when his team is losing.
About this place in the column it is customary for your reporter
to stick out his neck, and predict the scores of some of the major
football games being played around the nation, and so this I
Believe
, ' Nebraska 20, Minnesota 14.
Michigan State 21, Iowa 14.
Oklahoma 27, Texas Christian 13.
UCLA 34, Kansas 7.
Notre Dame 20, Texas 13.
Missouri 14, Purdue 6.
Kansas State 21, Wyoming 6.
For those' of you who areni going to Minnesota to watch the
Huskers play or aren't planning on listening to the game on the radio,
I hardily suggest tuning in your TV set to watch the Michigan State
Iowa game which is being televised coast to coast. It is still very
early in the pigskin season but this game could possibly have a great
deal to do in determining the outcome of the Big Ten race.
Aside from football, I happened to notice that the Cleveland
Indians have won 110 games and only have to win one more to break
the all-time number of games won by an American League team. The
current record holder Is the New York Yankee team of 1927 led by
Babe Ruth and his lB0 home runs. Yes, it is quite an accomplishment
for a team to break this record, and even more spectacular for a team
which was picked second in the pre-season polls. ' .
Quite a few of us remember Harry Good, former N.U. basketball
coach and his son Joe Good, but did you know that Mr. Good has
.nnrhar thitie sroL and ouite a eood one at that? Larry Good, the
other son of Mr. Good was a member of the University of Indiana's
swimming team last year and was rated as one of the top backstrokers
,,on the team.
Regards to aU, and hope to see you soon providing i am aoie to
survive after this Saturday afternoon.

Gophers. He has looked excep

, - re i
game, failure to nave an oiucuu
present at the hour and place that
the game is scheduled, can be a
justified reason for forfeiting the
game. Officials will be paid $1.00
per game, and must sign the re
quired payroll blanks. They will
be paid once each month of the
season.
AU men interested iB officiating
touch football games, should be

scrimmage tone which is consid
ered five yards on eacli side of
the ball on the line of scrimmage.
Any man who is not a football

Beta4 Yheta Pi Fraternity 'Named
Winners In Final IM Standings
By SHERM NEFSKY
Intramural Sports Writer
With the University intrasnural
sports program getting into high
gear for another season, last year's
top organizations, will again be
shooting for top honors in the final
aU-university standings.
Last year the top ten point get
ters were:
1st Beta Theta Pi
2nd Phi Delta Theta
3rd Phi Kappa Psi
4th Sigma Chi
5th Sigma Alpha Epsflon
6th Delta Tau Delta
7th Sigma Phi Epsilon
8th Delta Upsilon
9th Alpha Tau Omega
10th Sigma Nu
Most likely 50 or more organiza
tions wiU be fighting it out for top
honors in the final standings. That
gives plenty of incentive to the
players to fight for their organiza
tions. -AMONG THE sports starting
soon, are touch football, golf and
tennis.
Qualification for i aH golf wiU be
held Sept. 25th and 26th at 8:00
a.m., at Pioneer golf course.
FootbaU play this faU wffl i oUow
the same pattern that touch footr
ball did last year. -
This year play wfll be gov
erned by the rules, edited, pub
lished, and copyrighted by the Na
tional Federation of State High
School Athletic Associations. These
rule books may be obtained from
any sporting goods dealer.
A roster of players should ac
company the entry fee of $10.00,
which is due by the time the first
game is played. If the fee is not
paid by the date for the second
game, the team wiU be dropped
from the remaining league play.
The entry fee should be paid in
Boom 102, of the Physical Educa
tion Building. If for 6ome reason a
team finds it necessary to drop
out of footbaU league play, their
remaining entry fee will be re
funded or applied toward the has
kstbaU fee.
JUST AS last year, each team
wiU be responsible for having one
official present to work their
NU-P.E. Equip.

at 173 and stands 6-L
Colorado and Kansas. In last
year's Minnesota contest, the Go
phers downed NU, 13-7.
MINNESOTA will start a line
averaging 204 pounds. Their "big"
man wiu be tacKie boo Hooen
who weighs in at 236. Other men
on the Gopher line wiU be Ron
Smith, a 6-1 senior at end, and
Jim Soltau at the other end. At
the tackles will be Gordon Hols
and Hobert; guards are Elden
Dahl and Rocky Elton, with
Chuck Stamschror at -the center.
In the backfield for the hosts
will be Geno Cappelletti at quar
terback, Dick McNamara and
brother Bob at halfbacks, and
John Baumgartner at fullback.
IN EXPERIENCE, the Gophers
have a decided advantage with
twenty lettermen returning to the
Big Ten school this year whUe
only nine returned to Nebraska.
However, the speed in the Corn
husker backfield could make a
difference in the lack of experi
ence.
On the Nebraska side of the
story everything is intact as 36
Cornhuskers left today for the
Minnesota camp. Coach BiU
Glassford plans to take his
charges through a light workout
when they arrive in Minneapolis
sometime today.
On the casualty side of the list,
only Rex Fisher is on the ailing
