Rad Munginger, world fa
mous hypnotist, has signed a
contract as head coach of the
University's football team,
according to Nebraska athlet
ic officials.
Munginger's hiring came as
part of a move toward a
more intellectual Husker
sports policy.
Nebraska athletic director
Still Boozer, commented,
"football has become such a
war of opposing psychological
tactics that we thought we
would steal a march on the
rest of the nation's schools
and become the first institu
tion to really inject psycholo
gy into the fundamentals of
football."
"After all," Boozer contin
ued, "the boys ought to be
able to block pretty well if
they are mesmerized into be
lieving they can do it."
Munginger, himself, com
mented, "I expect to rebuild
Isebraska into a national foot
ball power in one season. 1
am perfectly convinced of my
ability to do this and I think
the boys will be to if I get
a chance to speak to each of
them personally soon. 1 plan
to inspark some still into
them." (Editor's note' Since
we talked to coach Mungin
ger by long distance phone,
the conversation was at times
a bit gargled.)
Slim Marybaum, leader of
the recent campus spirit drive
band an ocifer in the Extra
Pint Club, predicted that Mun
ginger will improve alumni
relations throughout the state
enormously.
NOTICE: Will th parsan who
ramevtd an English book and
Spanish book from tha cast Rag
rack In Andrews Hall Monday
morning kindly sail thorn or re
turn them to that spot as soon
as possible at they contain valu
able margin-notes.
"Just think of the tickets
that man could sell on a state
wide personal appearance
tour," Marybaum said.
Other Big Eight coaches
contacted about the hiring ex
pressed mixed sentiments.
Ward Comeclose, Colorado
mentor thought that the hir
ing of Muninger set a bad
precedent.
"In an era of recession and
unemployment, Nebraska's
move will only add to the de
teriorating economic situ
ation," Comeclose comment
ed. (Ed note: Dr. Gary
Hodgpodge, famed conserva
tive economist negated Come
closs's comment. Hodgepodge
said, "There isn't any reces
sion.") Bluff Killemson, Okla
homa's famed strategist took
the opposite view however.
"It will be a real pleasure to
match wits with a man of
Munginger's ability. After
all, we aren't playing the
coach, just his team. I am
certain that we can field a
combination that is just as
punchy as anything these
pseudo-scientific people can
produce."
Other conference coaches
were unavailable to the press.
As a matter of fact, the con
ference scene on the football
front was so chaotic that this
newspaper was unable to dis
cover who was coaching
what school. Most of the pres
ent incumbents were either
too busy packing or unpack
ing to comment anyway.
Former Husker football
coach, William Rodgers Jem
merity, said of the move that
deposed him, "I am not bitter
toward the school or the state.
I whish my successor the best
of luck. Anything is worth a
try."
Jemmerity said that he
"hadn't any plans as yet" but
he was reported to be con
sidering a post as chairman
of the University human re
lations department.

The Armchair Snort
v 1 by ivan popoffnick
There has been controversy to the effect that Nebraska's
school spirit is not on a par with other schools in our class
such as Oklahoma, Army, Notre Dame, and Navy. There is
no reason why we can't develop a reputation like any of
theirs. All we have to do is encourage students to attend
sporting events. Why there are some people who don't even
know that the University has a sports program.
Such encouragement could come in the form of grade
raising and serving free "refreshments." It would certainly
be great inspiration to see that old Coliseum full for a wrest
ling match or three thousand students turn out for a swim
ming meet. After we started winning all our contests spirit
would automatically improve. And that publicity!
I'm not going to bore you with a lot of the details for my
spirit reconstruction program, but after all, I am qualified.
My work on this topic includes study at Hadar Tech, Yale,
and Plato's school of philosophy. Having never participated
in sports of any kind, I am naturally well versed on sideline
procedure. I even attended a Nebraska sporting event once,
but didn't like it much. I could see right off what the trouble
was. People were leaving. An exhibition of spirit like that
was certainly a thoughtless, cruel action, don't you agree?
This was absolutely the wrong thing to do at a crucial mo
ment. Some of these people would not return that season.
What did they expect? Just because we were losing the last
game of the season doesn't mean they have to stay mad all
year.
As I relax in my collapsible lawn chair and click on the
radio to a Nebraskan sporting event, I can tell if we fans are
cheering, and so can thousands of other taxpayers. So if you
don t like to attend our sporting events, quit school.

Flaming Fast Ball Brings Torrid Win Streak
By Alfred E. Newman
What, Me Worry?
The Cornshuckers baseball
team which recently
returned from a week long
vacation in the South along
with a few games was ben
efited by the use of a new
pitching device, X-000.
Sonny Sparks, Shucker
coach, when contacted at his
hide-out, said the new wea
pon, which is a form of the
fast ball, was introduced in
the first game after it was
1
Tootsie Rocket . . . Slugger
approved by the NFTA. k. Na
tional Flame Thrower Asso
ciation) and completely
shocked the opposing nine."
Sparks stated that the new
device was invented by a for
mer player, H. G. Wells, after
many years of work.
Opponents Burned
"Although our opponents
were rather burned-up about
X-000, they took it in stride.
The umpires were wearing
blue asbestos suits and had
no trouble calling the plays."
The same eight players
were used in all six games,
Sparks said. Jerry Comet at
shortstop, Al Cupid at second
base, Larry Dasher in right
field, Jim Dancer behind the
plate, LeRoy Blitzen in left
field, Al Vixen at First base,
Gary Donner in center field
and Bill Prancer at third base
certainly cannot be over
looked, Sonny continued.
Asked if he was afraid that
other teams might begin us
ing the X-000, the Shucker
coach assured the University
that Nebraska has the only
weapon in existence, mainly
because H. G. accidently cre
mated himself when he fin
ished the first flame thrower.
Navy Began Work
Sparks said the Navy had
attempted to perfect the X
000, but after several misfir
ings at Escape Canaver
Florida, Wells was given the
right to work on a new idea,
that of using the weapon on
the baseball diamond.
Air Force ROTC Colonel
Carter Lake has approached
the athletic department about
using the X-000 to put more!
spark into his cadets, but this
request was turned down, ac
cording to Nhoj Yeltneb, ath
letic department mouthpiece.
Title Possible
In regard to a possible Big
Ape baseball championship,
Sonny said, ' I don't want to
be modest, but I have no doubt
but what we'll be Big Ape
champs in '58."
The only other use of the
X-000 has been by Sparks'
father, who operates Doper's
Mortuary. Doper reports that
cremation by X-000 is very
practical and business is im
proving rapidly.
