Independent Athletic Department
Finishes Year Financially Black
By Dave Wohlfarth
Nebraska's Athletic Depart
ment finished in the black
during the 1960-61 year mainly
due to outside contributors,
such as the Touchdown Club,
the Extra Point Club and the
Husker Educational Athletic
und.
The NU Athletic Depart-
ment reported a net gain of
$39,933.72 last year compared
to the $51,225.51 loss incurred
in the 1959-60 campaign.
The balance of the depart
ment on June 30, 1961, was
$163,465.03. On June 30, 1960
the balance was $136,377.48.
Dr. Joseph Soshnik, Univer
sity comptroller, who shares
in the administration of the
Athletic Department's affairs
along with Dean Charles
Miller, attributed the depart
ment's profit to the outside
contributions-
Main Sources
Soshnik listed the three
main sources of revenue for
the department as (1) gate re
ceipts of home and away
sports contests, (2) profits
from concessions and (3) con
tributions from interested peo
ple.
There is no tax or tuition
money Involved in the opera
tion of the department. "It
is a self-supporting opera
tion," Soshnik explained.
"The athletic grant-in-aid
scholarships are financed
from sources other than those
used for non-athletic scholar
ships and grant-in-aids," he
reported.
uutsiue Money
Outs'de contributions last
year totaled $67,002.30, includ
ing $18,352.30 from the Touch
down Club. $4,500 from the
Extra Point Club and $44,150
from the Husker Educational
Athletic Fund.
The only Husker sport to
show a gain was football,
which showed a net gain of
$149,999.04. Biggest losers
were track ($48,500.46), bas
ketball ($26,091.68), baseball
($20,703.82) and wrestling
($17,119.95).
The Army game was the
best home money-maker, net
ting $45,526.93 while the Mis
souri game made $45,072.77.
The Oklahoma game was
the top 1960 moneymaker on
the road, showing a $55,926.41
profit.
No salary increases are in
cluded in the 1961-62 schedule
for head coaches. Only size
able boost is for assistant
football coach Jack Braley
($1,000). '

sas State, Colorado, Colorado
State, Iowa, Iowa State, Okla
homa, and Oklahoma State
Main Purpose
The main purpose of the as
sociation as stated by Dr. F.
L. Nicolai, deputy registrar,
is for the universities to pool
resources in order to main
tain .i high level of excellence
without duplication.
Non-resident fees will be
waived to students in the pro
gram as part of the exchange,
said Dr. Nicolai.
Plans for the inter-university
cooperative association
which was established last
year at Kansas City by rep
resentatives of the schools
have been under study for the
past two years.
As stated in the Articles of
Agreement, the major consid
erations leading to the estab
lishment of the Association
are:
"The increased costs of
higher education in all its
phases, including the ever-in
creasing requirements for ex
pensive equipment to proper
ly conduct research programs;
The competition with other
segments of society for com
petent staff members;
The explosive increase in
student nrollment. .
Four Purposes
The four main purposes of
the Association are:
To promote the improve
ment of specialized facili
ties and programs at sev
eral institutions and to pre
vent wasteful duplication in
order that each university
may achieve a high degree
of excellence in all of its
programs.
To make the specialized
or unique educational pro
grams of these institutions
available at resident fee
levels to students on region
al basis.
To promote cooperative
use of unusual research fa
cilities among member uni
versities. To cooperate wherever
possible in providing a uni
fied voice in bringing major
research and educational
facilities and programs to
the region.

Cornhusker
Announces
New Price
Increase Will Cover
Added Printing Costs
The Cornhusker staff has
announced several changes in
the 1962 Cornhuskers.
As announced early in the
spring of last year, the cost
of the 1962 Cornhusker has
been raised from $5.50 to
$6.00. The reason for this, ac
cording to Anne Sowles, edi
tor, is to finance added ex
penses in printing.
The price of the yearbook
had remained at $5.50 for over
twenty years, and the staff
was unable to produce the
quality book demanded by the
students under the old budget.
In previous years 25 books
were needed to be sold for
one beauty queen or eligible
bachelor candidate. This
year, 20 books, sold in the
first two weeks, will deter
mine one candidate. This,
Miss Sowles said, is an at
tempt to increase the number
of early sales which will aid
the staff in determining the
total number of books needed.
Expanding from the previ
ous year's color section, the
staff plans for four color sec
tions in comparison with two
in 1961.
"The students seem to en
joy the color sections so
much, that we are hoping to
have a budget ample enough
to provide them with more
color pictures," Miss Sowlea
said. This is another reason
for the increased cost in
1962."
The staff is waiting the re
port from American Colle
giate Press on the rating for
the 1961 Cornhusker. The book
received an Ail-American rat
ing in 1960.
Individual pictures for the
1962 Cornhusker will begin be
ing taken on Wednesday.
Every student is urged to ar
range for their picture
through their organized
houses or to contact the Corn
husker office.
Because three section edi
tors were unable to return to
school, the staff will be hold
ing section editor interviews
during the week to fill the va
cated positions.
Anyone interested in apply
ing should contact the Corn
husker office Defore i'Tiday.
The exact time of interviews
will be announced in the Daily
Nebraskan later in the week.
KK Council to Meet
The executive council of
Kosmet Klub will meet at
4:00 p.m. today in room
234 Student Union. A meet

members will follow at 6:00
