Football Season
Saturday marked the close of
the 1957 regulation football season
ft few major games were played.
In the big game Navy downed
Army 14-0 as Middie halfback Ned
Oldham scored all 14 points.
Oldham, who was injured in the
Perm game and saw only limited
action in recent weeks, celebrated
his return to the starting lineup
by playing a brilliant game, de
fensively as well as offensively.
The 21-year od Middie capain
drove through a host of would-be
tacklers on a six-yard touchdown
run in the first period and ran 44
yards on a punt return for the
second score early in he fourth
period. He also converted twice.
Army threatened to score twice,
nee in he first period and once
in he third quarter, but a fum
ble and an enemy pass intercep
tion squelched the two Cadet
touchdown bids.
In other major games around
the nation Notre Dame romped
Southern California, 40-12, and
Oklahoma smothered Oklahoma
State 53-6.
The Irish used their sophomore
talent to effect as three of their
touchdowns were scored by !
rookies one a 92-yard kickoff re
turn by Pat Doyle.
Sophomore Monty Stickles, he
ro of the upset over Army, tallied
twice on passes of 17 and seven
yards from Bob Williams and
booted three extra points.
In romping to the easy win the
Irish outdowned their opponents
23 to 11 and outgained them 412 to
186.
The other Irish touchdowns were
cored by Toth and Crotty on
plunges of two and three yards
and Dick Prendergast who score 1
on an eight-yard pass from sopho
more George Izo.
All-America halfback Clendon
Thomas scored two touchdowns in
the Sooner route which gave him
a total of 36 touchdowns in his
college career. This broke the
former record of 35 held by three
ohter Sooner greats. Thomas
also broke two other school
records; the most yards rushing
in three years, 2,120, and the most
points, 216.
Halfback Jackie Sandefer also
scored two touchdowns as he ran
55 yards with an intercepted pass
and tallied another on a 24 yard
pass from Thomas.
Six different players scored the
Sooners touchdowns including the
two each by Thomas and Sande
fer and one each by Carl Dodd,
Dick Carpenter, Brewster Hobby
and Jackie Holt,

Omaha gridders dominated The
Omaha World-Herald All-State
football team as six Omahans
were selected on the mythical
eleven released Sunday.
The all-star team was divided
mong nine teams as only state
Champions Omaha South and
Omaha Central placed two men
n the first eleven.
Gregg McBride said of the all
star team, "The World-Herald All
State Football Team, one of the
best lineups in recent year, packs
all the requisites of an all-star
quad. It has speed. It is a dur
able unit. It boasts a tremendous
scoring punch. And it is rugged
defensively."
John Milton, Omaha South
halfback, was the lone junior se
lection. He was tagged as the best
breakaway runner in the rugged
Omaha Iner-city League. How
ever, Milton has no chance of re
peating as he will be over the
age limit next year.
Joining Milton in the backfield
were John Williamson of Scotts
bluff, Marvin Drevo of Crete and
John Conger of Aurora. William
son, one of the smaller backs (150
pounds), was the state's most ex
plosive ball carrier. His 96 points
led the Big Ten in scoring.
Lexington's Monte Kiffin and
North's Howard Waterman were
the standous of a well-balanced
line. Kiffin was a power on de
fense and a tremendous down
field blocker. Waterman was one of
the best Omaha linemen in years.
Guard Marvin Masek of South
led the Packer attack and aler
nated at varied line assignments
of defense.
Ted Clemens of Creighton
Prep, the other guard selection,
was a standout on one of the
state's best forward walls.
Doug Carlisle of Grand Island
and Pat Salerno of Central were
unanimous choices at end. Car
lisle was tough defensively and
smart and aggressive as a block
er. Salerno, a fine pass receiver,
was also a standout linebacker
and a sharp blocker.
Center Ken Brink of Omaha
was one of the smallest linemen
in the state (144, 5-7). He was an
excellent blocker and a standout!
end on defense.
COLUMBIA, Mo. - Two all
America linemen tackle Charley
Krueger of Texas A & M, andi

were unanimous choices on Mis-all-opponent

The University of Nebraska
Cornhuskers nailed down their first
victory of the 1957-58 basketball
season last night as they stung
the South Dakota State Jackrab
bits by a score of 64-52.
The game was marred by
ragged floor play of both teams
as they each engaged on their
first seasonal contest.
The sloppy ball handling was
offset by the frivolous ani'i of
Herschel Turner and Willie Fitz
patrlck who kept the huge crowd
on the edge of their seats an
ticipating their next rocking play.
Time after time the two clowned
their way through the game to
keep the spectators in laughter,
and when Willie came out of the
contest with 3:01 remaining, the
crowd came to their feet with a
boisterous ovation.
The Huskers were never in any
serious threat from the Jackrab
bits as they first took the lead
with 38 seconds gone in the game
on a set shot from the corner by
senior Don Smidt to put the Scar
let in front to stay there for the
remainder of the contest.
Although the Nebraska squad
easily outplayed the South Dakota
boys, they never could gain the
required scoring punch to really
times.
The Husker court play was at
times very sloppy but intermit
tently the Scarlet cagers played
championship ball to content the
noisy crowd.
The Husker scoring machine was
again faded into a group mumbling
about steaks and how they were
' to be done.
First Time For Refs
At the outset of the fray the
two officials, Glenn Bowles and
headed by Mayo, lanky center who Bm Lindquist came to the table
piayea an ouisianaing iioor game
for the Huskers. Mayo dunked in
and met everyone and then asked
if there was a doctor nearby. When
one was located they said that this
wanted to be sure.
But that seemed to get off on
the wrong foot for when the jump
occurred to begin the game it went
to Nebraska who proceeded down
the floor with Nannen doing the
honors and made a basket. The
only difficulty was that the entire
South Dakota crew was at the
other end of the floor and were
mixed up about the side of the
six two-pointers and five free
throws to lead the scoring race
with 17 points. Arwood and Fitz
patrick both contributed 10 points
to the Scarlet total. i
Big gun for the Jackrabbits was
Kent Hyde who also potted 17
points while Spindler folowed with
eight tallies.
Bush "Lots of Work. . ."
Husker Coach Jerry Bush who
spent a large portion of the game
jumping up and down in his chair court they were to defend
at tne ena oi me Husiter Dencn
was in high spirits after the Corn
husker victory.
Later, however, he came charg
ing around the corner with his
wife and I finally was able to
question him before friends came
onto the scene. When asked what
he thought of the team's showing
in their first outing he retorted,
"Here Alice, hold my coat." But
then he turned with a big smile
and said, "Well, there's a lot of
work ahead of us but I thought
Finally a consultation with
Coaches Bush and Iverson, it was
decided that Nebraska would have

The football season has ended and I can't really say I am sorry.
The Huskers had their good points this year, (67 of them to be ex-!
act), and their bad ones (I lost count at 134). Nebraska's record may !
not have been in the "grand old Husker tradition" but their hustle '
and desire certainly were equal to that of past Big Red aggregations, i
Prospects for for an improvement next season though it may not be '
a big one. ;

Warner Brothers cartoon festival.
Winter Sports Begin
The Nebraska winter sports scene opens this week as Jerry Bush,
the old pro, and his talented squad undertake the first few games ,
of a suicide schedule. In football, Husker coaches have been able to
breath easier when non-conference play is finally ended and Ne
braska's Big Eight "cousins" begin to appear each week. This ir
not true of basketball.
In basketball, the Big Eight is acknowledged as the one of the
toughest if not the toughest league in the nation. Even powerhouse
Kansas last year could not travel an entire season without defeat
in the rugged round robin conference schedule. Iowa State was the
club that clipped Kansas in conference olav and Oklahoma State, new
est addition to the Big Eight, did it in a non-conference tilt. After
hearing the Kansas-North Carolina game for the national champion- ;
ship last year, I thought the Tarheels would have lost at least two :
games had they been a Big Eight school. It is much easier to get
up for a few big games than to play one big game after another
where one defeat means the loss of the conference.
Thus, though they will be an improved club. Nebraska mav nm :
come up with as good a season's record as they did last year. One !
thing, however, is certain, with their fast moving brana of ball, flock
of superior young talent balanced by heady veterans, and a storv I
