NEW HUSKER COACH? Rob Devaney'g status as the
new Nebraska football coach continued to be a mystery yes
terday when the Wyoming Board of Trustees revealed it
will probably not take action on his-release from Wyom
ing until the regular Feb. 2 meeting.
(Author of "Rally Round The Flag, Boy", "The Many
Love of Uobve hull , tic.)
RING IN THE NEW
Are you still writing "1961" on your papers and letters? IH
bet you are, you scamps! But I am not one to be harsh with
those who forget we are in new year, for I myself have long
been guilty of the same lapse. In fact, in my senior year at
college, I wrote 1873 on my papers until nearly November of
18741 (It turned out, incidentally, not to be such a serioua
error because, as we all know, 1874 was later repealed by
President Chester A. Arthur in a fit of pique over the Black
Tom Explosion. And, as we all know, Mr. Arthur later came
to. regret his husty action. Who does not recall that famous
meeting between Mr. Arthur and Louis Napoleon when Ms.
Arthur said, "Lou, I wish I hadn't of repealed 1874." Where
upon the French emperor made his immortal rejoinder, "Tipi
que nous d lykr tu." Well sir, they had many a good laugh
about that, as you can imagine.)
But I digress. How can we remember to write 1962 on our
papers and letters? Well sir, the beet way is to find something
memorable about 1962, something unique to fix it firmly in
your mind. Happily, this is very simple because, as we all know,
1962 is the first year in history that is divisible by 2, by 4, and
by 7. Take a pencil and try it: 1962 divided by 2 is 981; 1962
divided by 4 is 490-1 2; 1962 divided by 7 is 28V27.This mathe
matical curiosity will not occur again until the year 2079, but
we wtH all b to busy tlien celebrating the Chester A. Arthur
for-;-i. w t
bS-ee&taoary timt we will scarcely have time to be writing
papers and letters and like that.
Another clever little trick to fix the year 1962 in your mind ,
it to remember that 1962 spelled backwards is 2691. "Year"
ipelled backwards is "raey." "Marlboro" spelled backwards m
foroblrain." Marlboro tmoktd backwards is no fun at alL
Kindly do not light the filter. What you do is pul the filter end
in your lips, then light the tobacco end, then draw, and then
find out what pleasure, what Joy, what rapture serene it is to
tmoke the filter cigarette with the unfiltered taste. In 1962, as
in once and future years, youll get a lot to like in a Marlboro
available in soft pack and flip-top box in all 50 states and
Puluth.
But I digress. We were speaking of tlie memorable aspect
rf 1962 and high among them, of course, is the fact that in
1962 the entire House of Representatives stands for election.
There will, no doubt, be many lively and interesting contest,
but none, IH wager, quite so lively and roteresting as the one
in my own district where the leading candidate is nont other
than Chester A- Arthur!
Mr. Arthur, incidentally. Is not the first ex-preside&t to com
out of retirement and run for the House of Representatives.
John Quincy Adams was the first Mr. Adams also holds
tnotber distinction: he was the first son of a president jver to
ierve as president. It is true that Martin Van Buren's son,
Walter "Blinky" Van Buren, was at one time offered the nomi
nation for the presidency, but he, alas, had already accepted
a bid to become Mad Ludwig of Bavaria. James K. Polk's son,
),. r.tV.w hand, became Salmon P. Chase. Millard Fill
more's son went into air conditioning. This later was known as
the Missouri UMnpromiee.

Devaney
Will Visit
NU Today
Nebraska's search for a
head football coach was tern
porarily delayed again yester
day by the University of Wy
oming Board ' of Trustees
which neglected to take action
on Coach Robert S. Devaney's
request for a release from his
contract.
Board President Clifford P.
Hanson stopped a telegraphic
poll of the board members
concerning Devaney's request
and said the matter would be
held up until the board meets
Feb. 2.
Devaney has requested the
contract release so that he
can assume the duties of Ne
braska football coach, replac
ing Bill Jennings, whose con
tract was not renewed fol
lowing the 1961 Husker grid
campaign. r
Devaney had planned to ar
rive in Lincoln yesterday but
bad weather forced cancella
tion of his trip till last night.
The 46-year old soon-to-be
Husker mentor plans to ar
rive in the Capital City today
where hewill meet with the
Husker football players at 4
p.m.
Devaney has said that he
is In the dark as to when he
will get his release from Wy
oming, but it appears likely
after the trustees' action Mon
day that the appointment of
Devaney to the head Husker
post won't become official till
after the regular Feb. 2
meeting of the group.
Hanson explained Monday's
action in a telegram to Uni
versity president Dr. G. D.
Humphrey:
"On the basis of incomplete
returns from a telegraphic
poll and because of serious
objections of several board
members, it appears that dis
cussions concerning Devan
ey's release are of suffici
ent importance as to acquire
more complete Information
and discussion at a full board
meeting Feb. 2."
Devaney expressed surprise
at the postponement but de
nied reports that he might not
go to Nebraska.
"It's just a matter of what
the board decides to do," De
vaney said. "I told the peo
ple at Nebraska I would like
to come there pending my re
lease, and now it's up to the
Wyoming trustees."
Devaney was announced as
the number one choice for the
job by NU's new athletic di
rector Tippy Dye last Satur
day, the same day Devaney
applied for a release from his
five year contract.
Dye left yesterday for the
NCAA meeting in Chicago and
was unavailable for comment
concerning the Cowboy coach,
whose teams have copped or
shared four $kyline Conference
championships in his five
years as Wyoming head
coach. His teams have won
35, lost 10 and tied five games.

DAILY UEBRASKAU
Two Teams Invade
Coliseum This Week
By Dave Wohlfarth '
Nebraska's basketball team
will be playing on the home
court for the first time in
three weeks when the Husk
ers host Oklahoma Wednes
day and Colorado Saturday in
the NU Coliseum.
Coach Jerry Bush's quintet,
fresh from a two point vic
tory over Kansas at Lawrence
Saturday night, will be per
forming before the home fans
for the first time since mid-
December. Since that time NU
lost three games on a western
swing then won one of three
Big Eight tourney games to
garner sixth in the pre-season
tourney at .Kansas City.
The HuskeYs rebounded to
turn the tables on a road jinx
and close game voodoo when
they clipped KU 69-67 last
weekend. The victims of three
one point defeats in 'the last
five losses, the Bushmen
pulled some last second he
roics to win a thriller.
The win marked the first
NU victory on an opposing
team's court and was the sec
ond straight Scarlet win at
the KU Allen Fieldhouse. f
NU In Front
The win. was also a big one
as it pushed Nebraska out to
the front in the early firing
of the league race. NU is 1-0
m conference play and 5-7 for
the year.
The Huskers will meet two
other undefeated conference
teams (going into last night's
games) in the pair of home
contests.
Oklahoma won its initial
conference test over Iowa
State in a convincing
manner and the Buffs upset
Kansas State 7541.
Both games start at 8:05
p.m. and will be preceeded by
preliminary games between
the Dental College and the
NU freshmen, starting at 5:45
p.m.
Lineup Changed
Bush has shifted his start
ing lineup for the Sooner
game in order to get more
height against the towering
Okies. Bill Bowers, 6-5, senior
center, will start against OU
along with Tom Russell, Ivan
Grupe, Rex Swett and Chuck
Sladovnik.
Bowers turned in one of his
top games against KU, ac
cording to Bush.
The biggest surprise of the
year for the Huskers has been
the continued improvement of
Grupe, 6-5 forward. Big Ive
earned his starting assign
ment with 17 points, 15 re
bounds and the basket at the
bell which enabled the Corn-
huskers to edge the Jays
69-67.
Jones Improves
Charley Jones, sophomore
forward-guard, also has been
improving, Bush indicated.
Starting for the Sooners,
who were 3-8 for the year aft
er las tweekend, will be 6-7
Warren Fouts, 64 Jack Lee,
6-8V2 James Kaiser, 5-9 Eddie
Evans and 6-3 Farrell John
son. The sparkplug of the Soon
ers is Evans, the hustling lit
tle junior guard. Evans, a
flashy ball, handler and pos
sessor of a nifty jump shot,
was a big factor in the OU
win over IS.

SOONER SPARK Eddie Evans wiU be at a starting
guard spot when Oklahoma meets Nebraska at the NU. Coli
seum Wednesday night. Evans, at 5-9, is one of the smallest
- starters In the Big Eight conference.
Russell Leads NU Scoring
Tommy Russell continues
to pace the Husker scoring at
tack. The senior NU forward
has scored 179 points for a
14.9 average, leads in re
bounds with 104, and field
goal percentage with a .542
mark.
