New NU Coach?
Bidding Heavy
For Army Star
By Bob Besom
The rush today is on Hank Foldberg, Army's popular
All American of the '40's.
At least four schools, including the Cornhusker home
grounds, are eyeing the Wichita U. head" grid man.
Foldberg, the 37-yard old native of Dallas, Tex., has
confirmed a solid bid from Nebraska's new athletic direc
tor Tippy Dye.
Army and Texas A&M, two schools with which he
played college ball, are both in the picture. And, of course,
Wichita U. has been tempting its popular mentor, whose
team won the Missouri Valley Championship and earned a
spot opposite Villanova in El Paso's Sun Bowl follies.
Challengers
Wichita is trying to beat off challengers with an ath
letic director-coach offer.
Foldberg said that he had talked at length with Dye
but added, "I don't think there Is much possibility of any
decision until after our appearance in the Sun Bowl on
Dec. 30."
Foldberg paid his first visit to Lincoln with Dye last
week, 'it's a very nice city. Nebraska certainly has a fine ,
plant. Somebody had a lot of foresight np there," he said '
following the trip.
Foldberg, who got his license in July, piloted the plane
that brought Dye and himself along with their wives to
Lincoln. "I think flying will be a great advantage in re
cruiting," Hank commented.
Foldberg said that he didn't know any of the Nebraska '
assistant coaches.
Under him at Wichita are Leonard Brown, Missouri,
1947; Craig Russell, Colgate, '56; Neil Schmidt, Purdue,
'51; and Joel Wahlberg, Florida, '57.
Recommendation
The Nebraska Board of Regents has recommended
that a member of outgoing Coach Bill Jennings' staff be
retained by the new Husker football coach.
The idea is to maintain "continuity of program" and
to keep contacts in Nebraska. '
The recommendation, made to Tippy Dye, apparently
is a boost toward keeping Oetus Fischer, the only Ne
braska native on the staff.
Informed that Dale Hall had been dismissed at Army,
Foldberg said: 'This really floors me. I just didn't think
it would happen."
In regard to the Army opening, Foldberg comment
ed, "It depends on their interest in me."
Pre Offense
Foldberg, who played professional ball for the Brook
lyn Dodgers and Chicago Hornets between 1W6 and 1950,
said the offense his Wichita team presently employes "is
pretty much a pro offense."
"We use an unbalanced line with men in motion, we
also use the lonesome end and set our backs in the oppo
site direction. We also use the wing T with flankers."
Foldberg played football both at Army and Texas
A&M but got his degree from Florida.
He was an AU-American end two years in the Doc
B.anchard-Glen Davis era at West Point.
His first coaching post was as a Purdue assistant m.
1950 He moved on to assistant jobs at Texas AIM as well
as Florida before taking the Wichita assignment.
It has been reported that Dye will receive about $17,000
as Nebraska's athletic director and that Foldberg ha been
offered over $15,000. He receives $13,500 from Wichita.
Dye's salary has not been set by the Board of Regents.

Seminar, Alumni College
To Teach NU Operation
University alumni will be
given the opportunity to be
rome better acquainted with
the classroom atmosphere
and the University as a whole
through two programs sched
uled for the first week in
June.
The events, to be held at
the Nebraska Center for Con
tinuing Education, are a Land
Grant Centennial Citizens
Seminar, June 4-6, and an NU
Alumni College, June 7-.
Dr. Merk Hobson, dean
the College of Architecture
and Engineering, Is in charge
ef the seminar which will be
a guest affair.
He gave this explanation of
the project:
"Each college will be asked
to invite state and commu
nity leaders to attend. The
purpose is to provide a frank
and open discussion by Ne
braska concerning the Uni
versity's role, what it is do
ing, what it should not be do
ing and its problems."
Dr. Hobson said that semi
nar participants will see the
total operation of the Univer
sity. . ,
The first announcement of
the Alumni College was made
in the November issue of the
Nebraska Alumnus maga
zine. According to tentative
plans alumni and their wives
will have the opportunity of
participating in classes simi
lar io' those held daily on the
campus.
Authorities from the Uni
versity faculty and other out
standing speakers, will con
fiyr ws of lectures on
a variety of subjects or in
terest. The suggested areas
of study suggested so far run
from modern literature to
preventive dentisty to Amer
ican foreign policy to possible
Nebraska tax reform.
According to the Alumnus
magazine numerous other
colleges and universities have
had exceptional success with
such programs.
The magazine continued,
"This is an opportunity for
continuing education in a ma
ture atmosphere conducive to
real learning. Education
should not end with a diplo
ma. The changing times re
quire a new outlook and ad
ditional information in many
spheres. The emphasis of this
program is on intellectual
stimulation with a broad
approach to the understanding
of man and his problems; to
acquaint the human mind
with the intellectual heritage
ofthe times."
European Glasses Mix Work, Fun
Classrooms Abroad make
it possible for a student to
combine the learning of a
language and becoming ac
quainted with the culture of
a nation with a pleasure
trip to Europe.
Eleven groups, each num
bering about 20-30 selected
American college students,
will form seminars in Euro
pean cities this summer to
study the language, culture
countries during the nine
week stay.
The Classrooms Abroad
program Is designed for the
serious student who does
not plan to see all of Eur
ope in a summer. It gives
him a more profound ex
perience through a summer
of living in one of the fol
Ionics cities: Bevlln, Mun
ich or Tubingen in Ger
many; Vienna, Austria;
Besnacon, 'Grenoble or Pan,
France; Neuchatel, Switzer
land; Madrid or Snatander,
Spain; and Florence, Italy.
Groups of seven to ten
members will be instructed
three to five hours- daily by
American and native pro
fessors. These classes will

New National Fraternity
To Colonize on Campus
By Tom Kotouc
Triangle fraternity, a na
tional social fraternity of en
gineers and scientists, has re

Donald F. Young, director
of general services of Triang
le fratermty, said that he has
received the permission of
the Interfraternity Council,
the Board of Control and the
University administration to
colonize immediately.
"The entrance of Triangle
into the fraternity life is an
other step forward in expand
ing the fraternity system at
the University and in keeping
abreast of added enrol
ments," said Don Ferguson,
president of the IFC, who has
been working for fraternity
expansion.
Triangle, founded in the fall
of 1906 at the University of
Illinois, limits the member
