flale time . . . .
"Father Time waits for no one", goes the saying and we quickly
d the year drawing to an end here at Nebraska.
Athletically wise, .the term hasn't been outstanding, but Indications
how that things could look bright for the future,
t On the football scene, the Cornhusker eleven onct again rode into
I. ' second place, bowing only to the mighty Oklahoma Sooners.
I Coach Bill Glassford, who bowed out of the football scene at the
end of the last campaign, led his charges to victories over Kansas
: State, Kansas, Missouri, Colorado and Iowa State in the conference.
. The Huskers dropped contests to Hawaii, Pittsburg, Ohio State and
Texs A&M.
When you consider the strength of the Pitt, OS and Texas ball clubs,
! the season wasn't as bad as the 5-5 mark may indicate.
V To the new head coach, Pete Elliott and his able-bodied aides, we
wish you the best of luck. We feel that this could be a year that the
Huskers could go all the way.
Coach Jerry Bush found the going a little rougher as his basketball
crew fell to sixth place.
However, the picture isn't as bad as it may seem, for Bush was
plagued .with a young and inexperienced squad. With Rex Ekwall,
t Jim Kubacki, Gary Reimers, Don Smidt, Jim Arwood, Jim Thorn and
a host of good freshmen returning, Bush's five could ones again be
challengers for the Big 7 crown.
? Coach Hollie Lepley's swimming crew produced one champion In
the person of diver Gene Cotter. The tankmen had one of their best
f seasons last year, with only one senior on the squad.
The grappling crew had their ups and downs, but senior Arnie
Morton carried the Husker hopes up to the final rounds before bowing
out. But next year could be better with wrestlers Marshall Kelson,
Dan Brand and other veterans returning.
f However, Coach Frank Sevigne may be able to put the crying
towel away for next year.
f With Freshmen Keith Gardner and Bennie Dfllard, plus sopho
mores like Bill Marten, Bill Hawkins, Don Ficke, Bernie Randolph,
Bob Elwood and others, the Nebraska thinclads could very well make j
an excellent showing for next year.
Hat's off . . .
? To the various coaches good luck ...
To Pete Eliott ... here's hope for a trip to the Orange Bowl . , .
To Jerry Bush . . here's looking for you at the NCAA finals in
March.
To Frank Sevigne . . . here's hoping for nothing but records from
' your thinclads.
To Tony Sharp ... that Big 7 title isnt far off.
To Hollie Lepley ... let's, hope more tankers follow Cotter to the
winners circle.
t To Ed Higgenbotham . . . Fisk and Weaver are next in line.
To BUI Orwlg ... here's hoping that you keep the fine crop of
athletes rolling into NU.
To Joha Bently ... here's hoping for better weather next All-
Iports Day.
To my staff of Bob Martel, Bob Win, Walt Blore and George Moyer
. . just thanks.

, The University of Nebraska base
ball squad will end its season with
a two game series against Iowa
State at Ames, Iowa. The Huskers
and Cyclones will tangle this after
noon and tomorrow afternoon in
contests that could determine a
conference championship.
Colorsdo will invade Oklahoma
at the same time to see what it
can do to open the doors to the
title for Iowa State, Nebraska or
Missouri.
No matter what hapepns in the
series at Ames, the key to the
whole championship picture takes
place at Norman. Oklahoma must
sweep the series to eliminate any
challengers. Iowa State or Ne
braska must have a sweep of its
series to be able to take advantage
of a pair of Sooner losses.
Missouri must have a double
Sooner loss and a split in the Iowa
State-Nebraska series to get a
title share after its double loss to
Kansas.
But neither Iowa State nor Ne
braska will be paying any attention
to other game results at 3:30 today
when the series opens in Ames. No
matter what happens at Norman
there is still a mighty big chore
for either team.
Iowa State and Nebraska, shar
ing 6-4 records in third, will face
good pitching and good hitting on
both sides in this 1956 finale. Iowa
State cut loose for 19 hits against
Oklahoma last Saturday. The
Huskers have the same type of hit
ting along with the best corps of
left-handed pitching in the loop.
Dick Geier and Willie Greenlaw
will probably be assigned the chore
of stopping the Cyclone attack.
Coach Tony Sharpe is pinning
his attack hopes on steady Don
Brown, Larry Lewis, Al Karle,
Norm Coufal and Rex Ekwall. All
have been hitting the ball well
lately with Brown currently lead
ing the club with a .411 batting
average.
Playing in their last regularly
scheduled game in a Nebraska uni
form will be Marv Arensdorf of
North Platte, Don Brown of
Omaha, Norm Coufal of David
City, Dick Geier of Lincoln and
Gene Welch of Omaha.

Last week end the Big Seven
conference held their final meets
of the year in track, tennis, and
golf at Manhattan, Kansas. So
this ended the dismal season of
the Cornhuskers in these sports.
But yet the heavy use of under
classmen makes the outlook for
the future look brighter.
In track the Nebraska squad
finished last in the conference.
Their best effort was by Larry
Smith of South Sioux City but the
outlook is brighter for the future
with such freshmen as Keith Gard
ner, Bennie Dillard, Knolly Barnes,
Charles Wollaston, Richard Jahr,
and many others expected to show
next year when they become elig
ible for varsity competition. Also
Bill Hawkins, Mill Marten and Don

Ficke, sophomores on the present
squad, will be back.
In tennis the Huskers again fin
shed last in the conference but
the showing of underclassmen,
namely Art Weaver and George
Fisk make the outlook in this sport
bright for 1957.
The golf team at Nebraska fared
some better as they finished fifth
in the conference meet and Gary
Butterfield placed fourth among
the individuals. Nels Jensen and
the Moore Brothers also, Were
steady competitors for Jerry Bush's
crew.
The golf team like the track and
tennis clubs will welcome letter
men back to the fold next sea
son. This should bring added life to
the Cornhusker athletic picture and
the hope of champions in these
sports as well as the fall and
winter soorU which finished thir
seasons several months ago.
