ATOs Win
Football Title
Alpha Tau Omega is the
1961 All University Intra
mural football champion
The ATO's knocked off the
Dental College 33-7 Friday
to gain the title.
Dental College scored their
only score in the first quarter
on a short pass to Bob Smith.
Alpha Tau Onega came
back with their slick offense
and tough defense to hold the
Dents scorless and scored five
touchdowns and three extra
points.
The ATO's used their pass
ing attack to perfection to
set up most of their scoring
runs. With the two halfbacks
split wide, ATO quarterback
Elmer Wallin would hit one
of the two halfbacks cutting
to the middle, Besides this
tough air attack, the ATO
line put good pressure on the
Dent College's offensive to
stop the Dents.

Sidelights from the Kansas-Nebraska game Kansas
rivals Syracuse as the best team the Huskers have faced
this year. The Jayhawks looked every bit the team they
were picked to be at the start of the season. John Hadl
lived up to his clippings. The shifty Jayhawk signal-caller
ran the option as well as anyone; some
times getting ria ot tne ball on the pitch
out at the very last second. Hadl had the
Husker ends guessing all day.
KU hopes for a Missouri victory at
Colorado were ignited by the fact that the
Jayhawk backers felt that Kansas will
whip Miz2ou when the two meet Nov. 25
The sports editor of the Daily Kansan. Bili
Sheldon, expressed his opinion that Colo
rado isn't as strong as their record indi
cates and that Nebraska

them off. Wohlfarth
Colorado has Nebraska and Iowa State remaining to
complete an unbeaten conference season. If the Buffs
should falter in one of these games and Kansas beats
Missouri, then KU would still have a. shot at the Orange
Bowl trip as both teams (Kansas and Colorado) would
have 5-1 conference marks.
.
This corner wonders why the NU coaches have neg
lected to use Rob Meade, senior quarterback, more. Tak
ing nothing away from Dennis Claridge, who will be a
great qarterback in the ftre, Meade saw his first action
great quarterback in the future, Meade saw his first action
in three weeks Saturday and looked good. Meade, who
; doubles as the Husker place-kicking expert, fired a 30-yard
pass to end Jim Huge on his first play of the game and
led the Huskers only TI) drive.
Later in the fourth quarter, Meade was benched again
and didn't see farther action until the last few despera
tion plays. Meade's record for . Saturday was three
five completions for 53 yards. Claridge' threw 18 times,
completed six, also gaining S3 yards through the air. This
corner would like to see the continued use of both quar
terbacks and some more, but giving Meade, who has sat
on the bench for three years and deserves a better fate,
a fair chance.
a
Nebraska's Thunder Thornton was not among the
first list of candidates for the All-American team. Thorn
ton, the Big Eight's second leading rusher, has proven
himself week after week outdueling some of the country's
best, including Syracuse's Ernie Davis, Oklahoma State'!
Jim Dillard and KU's Curtis McClinton. Every team Ne
braska plays has pinpointed Thunder as the man to stop
but only one teanV'(Arizona) has limited him to under 40
yards. The 200-pound junior halfback from Toledo de
serves more credit than he will receive. Thunder hits
every line as hard as he can and has an intense desire
to win. His performance against Oklahoma State (gained
121 yards and played an outstanding defensive game) was
tabbed by. Gregg McBride of the Omaha World-Herald as
"one of the best performances in a losing cause I've ever
seen."
Despite all this, the Thunder Man will probably not
receive any All-American honors (THIS YEAR) and will
have to scrap to make the all-Big Eight team. With such
outstanding backs as Hadl (who will probably get an all
Big Eight halfback selection), Colorado's Gale Weidner at
quarterback,-and Iowa State's Dave Hoppmann (wingbackV
in the conference, Thornton will have to beat out Dillard
and McClinton for the fourth backfield spot. Thornton has
outgained both these two in their meetings this fall and it
will be highway robbery if he doesn't get selected.
Six Lettermen Bolster
Wrestling Outlook
By Bob, Besom
Two blind grapplers will
be looked to for varsity roles
with the 1961-62 Nebraska mat
men, reported Coach Bob
Mancuso.
Jim Faiman and Dan HoS-
v e t, both senior lettermen
from Nebraska School for the
Blind, will probably have the
starting spots ir. the 137 and
191 pound divisions.
Most of the Husker strength
is in the lower weights. Sen
tors Jim Baschke and Harold
Thompson will be called on
for the power in the heavier
divisions.
Raschke, the stout Omaha
h a n d i m a n who led last
season's squad to the best
Nebraska record in 32 years,
ranks among the nation's toD
collegiate heavyweights, said
Mancuso. And Thompson, who
is one of five out-staters on
the 27-man roster, could sur
prise the nation's best 157
pounders.
Mike Nissen is the top pros
pect in the lower divisions.
Nissen, last season's bright
est star, will again be vieing
at 123.
Dick Van Sickle, 130, and
Larry Lebruska, 147, round
out the seven man list of re
turning lettermen.
Mancuso lauded the prog
ress of 115-pounder Chuck
Martin, a sophomore from
Lincoln. Martin is one of 15
underclassmen on the roster:
Twelve duals are on tap
for Mancuso's grapplers
three more than in 1960-61.
The record was 5-1-3 last
season.
The matmen open at Man
hattan Dec. 2, against Man
cuso's alma mater Kansas
State and former coach Frit
Knorr.
The Huskers are also billed
for arieast three tourneys.
