Coaches' Daughters
Are Proud of Dads
j
By SUE HOVIK
Nebraskan Staff Writer
What do coaches Bob De
vaney, Tony Sharpe, Jim
Ross, and Jerry Bush and
athletic director Tippy Dye
all have in common?
University daughters.
These five girls are all in
their first year at the Uni
versity. Thinking alike on almost
every subject introduced,
these five girls radiated the
loyalty which they all have
towards each other and the
University. Penny Dye, Pi
Beta Phi freshman, summed
it up well when she s a i d,
"We stick together through
everything."
Once these girls started
talking, they were willing to
comment on everything from
school spirit to praising the
friendliness of Nebraskans.
Pat Devaney, Alpha Orni
cron Pi pledge, expressed the
feelings of all when she ex
claimed that the people are
exceptionally friendly and
they really welcome you.
Connie Sharpe, Alpha Omi
crpn Pi pledge, spoke for
them all when she vigorously
explained that she watches
all sports more closely, but
particularly the sport which
her father coaches.
Sharon Ross, Kappa Delta
junior transfer, repeated a
question familiar to all the
girls: "What does your fath
er think about Saturday's
game?"
Advantages of having a
coach for your father are
many. Karen Bush, Delta
Gamma pledge, stressed the
meeting of new and interest
ing people.
A life that is filled with
tension, fun, excitement and
people can only be described
by three words "We love It!"

Three new temporary com
mittees which "will study
problems vital to the fratern
ity system at Nebraska" were
appointed last night at the
Interfraternity Council (IFC)
meeting by President John
Nolon.
The new committees and
chairmen are: Intramurals,
Grant Strong; Rush Evalua
tion, Bob Geisler, Homecom
ing, Jay Graff.
Nolon said that these
areas are now sore spots in
the system and the commit
tees are to begin investiga
tion as soon as possible. The
committee chairmen may re
port at their own disgression
to the IFC.
To the home-coming com
mittee chairman, Nolon
pointed out that since the
Greeks at Nebraska perform
what he termed, "a service"
in the building of homecom
ing displays, the instructors
should be more cognizant in
the scheduling of quizzes and
hour examinations at this
time.
Under new business, the
IFC passed a motion permit-
ting Sigma Alpha Mu to print
a rush booklet to be sent out
to prospective rushees dur
ing the spring.
Sigma Alpha Mu repre
sentative, Chip Kuklin said,
"Since our fraternity is Jew
ish, we don't have the prob
lem of rushing against other
houses, but getting the men
to come to Nebraska. We
want to convince them that
the University is a good
school."
By IFC rule no other fra
ternity is permitted to print
summer mshbooks.
According to Dave Smith,
IFC rush chairman, his com
mittee is aiding in the re
organization of Theta Chi
fraternity, and in the estab
lishment of Chi Phi fraternity
at the University.
The Sigma Chi representa
tive told council members
that their annual "Derby
Day" is coming up and asked
the cooperation of all houses
in not injuring any girls
while painting their jeans.
