Husker grapplers open the
1961-62 mat action at Man
hattan against Kansas State
Saturday night.
There is a student-coach
feature to the dual which (at
9:15 p.m.) will follow the K-State-New
Mexico basketball
game.
Bob Mancuso, Nebraska's
new mat coach" is a former
wrestler under K-State Coach
Fritz Knorr. Mancuso was the
leading 'Cat wrestler at 130
pounds his senior year in 1954
55. The Wildcats, with only one
senior on the, squad, are re
building this season around
last year's outstanding sopho
mores and newcomers off the
freshman, team. Knorf has
four lettermen to work with,
Coach Mancuso wiE pit five
experienced Huskers, led by
co-captains Jim Raschke and
Harold Thompson, against
Kansas State.
Dick Van Sickle, an Omaha
junior, Jim Faimon, a senior
letterman who Is blind, and
Mike Nissen of Mason City,
Iowa, should all be ready for
action tomorrow night.
Mancuso . may do some
shuffling to fill the light
heavyweight spot. Jack Rich
ard, a junior 167-pounder, may
get the assignment but Man
cuso will probably call on Jim
Hamsa, a green recruit from
the grid ranks, to take over
Four sophomores from Lin
coln are on the Husker s
Sellers Meeting
There will be a meeting
Saturday at 10:30 a.m. in
the Coliseum N Club room
for all lettermen interest
ed in selling at basketball
games, according to L. F.
(Pop) Klein, director of concessions.

accomplishing what the Nebraska people expect of him?"
These questions can only be answered if he becomes fa
miliar with present personnel.
The Husker fan is starting to get a little anxious. In
all my memories of Husker football, I don't recall three
crowds under 25,000 which we had this year and I don't
think things will get much better. Our schedule next year
is not strong with the exception of Michigan, which isn't
the power it used to be. South Dakota and North Carolina
State have not shown great power in the past few years
and the Big Eight powers such as Missouri, Colorado and
Kansas, lose many .key football players.
The Huskers have one of the best teams of juniors
and sophomores returning next season in the conference.
The seniors, although they tried' hard and played well,
did not compose the hard core of the team.
Hat Off
The Old Pro would like to take his hat off to these
seniors (the only problem is I never wear one) and hope
that they have good luck,, in their future pursuits. The
Old Pro hopes that they go out and push Nebraska in the
future with their recruiting and aid.
Nebraska's chancellor and Regents had better make
their move now in order, to insure our future success in
athletics. Remember, our athletic director has to select
men for the changes he wishes to be made and any new
coaches must have time to recruit, to set up their staff,
install their system of coaching-, have all things opera
tional by the next year, and study their present personnel.
Good luck on a speedy decision. Let's hope that it is
forthcoming. PREDICTIONS: Huskers lose opener to a
tall Wheatshocker team (7' center, two 6'8" forwards) at
Wichita despite Russell's 24 points. Season's record will be
15-10 with a third place finish in the Big Eight Conference.

NU Had Only Three Losing Seasons in 51 Years
Continued from Page 5
when Biff Jones' eleven
compiled a 3-5-IS mark.
Going back even further
one finds that the Cornhusk
ers had experienced losing
seasons in only three years
from the first season, 1890, .
through the 1940 season
a period of 51 seasons. .
Fortunes
But then Cornhusker for
tunes changed almost over
night. The 1940 team had a
record of eight wins against
one loss during the regular
season and earned an invita
tion to the Rose Bdwl, losing
to Stanford, 21-13.
Then came nine straight
losing seasons. Bill Glass
ford's 1950 team finally
broke the spell with a record
of six wins, two losses and 1
one tie.
While the first 51-years of
Cornhusker football saw
only three losing , seasons,
the next 21 has seen only
three winning seasons. The
three winnings seasons,
1950, 1952, and 1954, all came
under Glassford, who was
forced to leave after the
1955 season.
But even with the loss of
winning team? the pride of
the Cornhusker super-fan
continued. Every coach who
followed Jones felt it, al
though they didn't all agree
on the reason for it.
Situation
Glenn P r e s n e 1 1, who
coached in 1942, points out,
"Nebraska has a wonderful
situation and tradition in J
that it has pnly the one
large University and every-,-one
points to it with pride."
Presnell adds that sbme
of the spirit which spurred
Nebraska boys to supreme
efforts may be missing to
day. "We were Nebraska
people and we felt we had a .
tradition to uphold," he ex
plains, "I doubt if there is
that feeling with boys, from
all over the country now
representing Nebraska."
B e r n i e Masterson, Bill
Glassford, and Pete Elliott
all pointed to the fact that
Nebraska hag only one ma
jor state school. They felt
that this unifies support be
hind the Cornhuskers.
But George (Potsy) Clark
felt the pride that remained
from the pre-war days."
Big Question
"When I used to visit
throughout the state the big
question in, everyone's mind
was Nebraska football," he
says. "It it a wonderful
situation when you can go
Nebraskan
Sports
to every little hamlet in the
state and the talk centers
around Cornhusker foot
ball.", .
"It is conversation for
plumbers,' chemists and
bankers," he says. "One
would be surprised at the
number of business deals
that have started over a
discussion of Nebraska foot
ball." . ...
Clark, who coached the
Huskers in 1945 and 1948,
added, "I think it is very
important to use Nebraska
boys. And I think you can
still, win at Nebraska with
Nebraska boys."
Ellsworth Moser, an out
standing center on 'Jumbo
Stiehm's winning teams in
the days prior to World War
I, says, "We went to Ne
braska because we wanted
to play for the state Uni
versity and we didn't get
paid a cent.
More Desire
"I'll bet we' had more de
sire to win than most of the
paid players in today's col
lege game, because we
were paying to win for the
merchant and ,the farmer
back in Scottsbluff, or Sut
ton, or any other town in
the state," he continues.
And in 1961 is there still
a Cornhusker super-fan?
Apparently so. Crowds of
Two Names
Mentioned
For NU Job
The announcement that Bill
Jennings' contract will not be
renewed brought immediate
speculation on his successor
as head Husker football
coach.
Latest coaches mentioned
were Harold Lahar, who re
cently resigned at the Univer
sity of Houston and John Ral
ston, who coached Utah State
to an undefeated season.
Lahar's Houston team has
won four, lost four and tied
one going into its season fin
ale against Oregon State.
Ralston's Aggies finished
9-0-1 this year, tying for the
Skyline Conference champion
ship for the second straight
year with Wyoming. Utah
State will play in the Gotham
Bowl at New York City Dec.
9.
Other NU coach prospects
previously mentioned include
Hank Foldbfcrg, Wichita1; Jim
Myers, ex-Texas A&M men
tor, Clay Stapleton, Iowa
State and assistant NU coach
Cletus Fischer.
25,000 and more supported
a football team that ended
the season with a 3-6-1 rec
ord. And Coach Bill Jen
nings, who took the reins
from Pete Elliott in 1957,
also has felt the intense
pride of the Cornhusker
fan. He pointed out that he
felt it was even greater
than normal on a oGilege
campus.
And all of Cornhusker
football tradition seems to
agree with him.
The Cornhusker football
fan may well be some kind
of a super-loyal nut. He
may be conservative in his
politics, but he is radical
about his football. He may
be pessimistic about Ne
braska's future at t i m e s,
but he is always optimistic :
about the Cornhuskers. He
may rant. He may rave. He
may scream for a win. But
the Cornhuskers are his,
and he is always there to
watch them.

THt CHURCH FOR ALL . . . .
All FOR THI CHURCH
The Church il the greatest factor
on earth for the buildinr oi character
and good citizenship. It is a store
house of spiritual values. Without
strong Church, neither democracy aor
civilisation can survive. There art
four sound reasons why every person
should attend sen ices regularly and
support the Church. They are: (1)
For his own sake. (2) For his chil
dren's lake. (3) For tbe sake of his
community and nation. (4) For the
sake of the Church itself, which needs
bis moral and material support. Plan
to go to church regularly and read
your Bible daily.

The folks who lived in the day of the hour
glass had a psychological advantage. They could see
time passing.
And as each fine grain slipped through the neck
of the glass, a man's conscience would whisper
within him: less time leftl
When we look at a clock its hands seem motion
less. 1$ that why millions put off the important
decisions that ought to be made right now?
Whatever its cause, procrastination is a disease.
It lulls the senses into indolence. It wastes our
energy on trivial pursuits, while important tasks
remain undone. Especially it attacks the soul,
tempting man to believe that there will be plenty
of time latet to terid to his spiritual needs.
, . But the cure is simple . . . and immediate. Just
set the alarm clock and begin the New Year with
worship in your Church. You'll soon be facing
every important task with eagerness and courage
and faithl
