Soccer Team Continued On
Campus Despite Obstacles
By Minnette Taylor
Many people think be

high school it Is a sissy
game, but others are con
vinced that it is too rough
and they don't want any part
of it."
That is how Otto Ludewig
describes the plight of the
University soccer team when
it tries to recruit students
who have never played the
game. Ludewig is one of
four committeemen for the
group.
The soccer team, organ
ized here just three years
ago by Martin Carrancedo,
has begun practice for its
spring schedule. Soccer en

Although soccer can be
toned, down for girls (after
all you don't tackle people
the way yon do in football),
it can also be rough, result
ing in anything from bruised
shins to broken legs, accord
ing to Ludewig. '
Soccer is a cousin of foot
ball. It is unique in that
players may use their heads,
legs, feet and bodies, but
they cannot use their arms
and hands in active play.
(The goalee is an exception
when defending the goal
within a prescribed radius.)
This results in tangles of
legs, massive contact, fan-
baseball in some other coun
tries and has "caught hold"
in the Ivy League, accord
ing to Ludewig. One specta
tor from Germany told last
fall of how, during the war,
children would kick tin cans
when there was no soccer
ball available. Ludewig
laughingly illustrated the
agelessness of the game
with, "Sometimes you see an
old guy try to kick a ball
and he gets a cramp and he
czn't move anymore . . ."

students have played since

that is every sports photog'

football in that there are 11
players on each team on the
field at the same time and
the soccer ball is often
kicked. It is also like hockey
in that the object of the

Competition wore heavy on
the Nebraska matmen in the
Big 8 Conference held at Still
water, Okla., last week-end
as Cornhuskers were held to
sixth place with a tally of
seven total points.
Oklahoma State won high
honors in the meet with 71
points and Iowa State, de
fending conference champion,
scored 63, while Oklahoma
totaled 56 points. Fourth
and fifth places went to Colo
rado with 23 and Kansas
State with 10 points.
Evidence of the heavy com
petition came when Les An
dreson, Iowa State, and Paul
Albury, Oklahoma, defending
national collegiate champions,
were defeated. Dick Beattie,
Oklahoma State; Duane Mur
ty, Oklahoma State: and Ron
Gray, Iowa State, all national
champs, were still able to
successfully defend their
titles.
Nebraska's Ken Lott was
noted for having scored the
quickest fall of the day, by
pinning Jim Caster of Kan
sas State in 54 seconds.
Harold Thompson also
made his mark in the Nebras
ka scoring column with a 4-0
decision over Tom Littleton
of Oklahoma.
Nebraska coach Bill Smith

the NCAA matches as the

predicted that at least six of

Why did
14,436
sophomores
enter advanced
Army R.O.T.C.
during 1958?
Many more applied. Not all were accepted.
In more than 200 U. S. colleges, 14,436 college
sophomores met the high standards set. These
students were selected to continue officer
training in the advanced R.O.T.C course,
Why did each of these young men decide
that he would benefit by fulfilling his military
obligation as an Army officer? Here are two
important reasons. Perhaps they'll help you
make your decision.
1 TRADITIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES
As an Army officer, you're in command of men. More
men than the number supervised by many civilian ex
ecutives years older than yourself. To meet your com
mand responsibilities, you employ a great many of the
LEADERSHIP principles acquired in advanced R.O.T.C.
training. And your executive potential develops while
2. ..TRADITIONAL REWARDS
In every organization, greater responsibilities mean
greater rewards. The traditional prestige of an Army
officer is matched by material advantages. A second
lieutenant earns a minimum of $355.88 per month
plus substantial fringe benefits. Think you might want
to marry soon after graduation? An officer's salary can
you gather LEADERSHIP experience. The executive
ability you gain as an Army officer will be an important
advantage in any civilian career. That's why employment
directors often prefer men who have served as com
missioned officers. These men have already proven their
capacity to handle executive responsibility.
make, things a great deal easier for a married couple
just starting out. What's more, an Army officer is en
tilled to take his dependents with him, wherever pos
sible. Imagine sharing the fun of travel with your wife
in the United States or foreign countries like France,
Germany or Japan.
