Again the campus is laden with meaningful traditions
of the past and students rush and gush at parades, parties,
and queens. It is that weekend when happiness is not a
warm blanket but a exposition of patriotic emotion. It is
Homecoming Weekend.
And it all started with a football game that everyone
should get excited about once a year. A Homecoming victory
over a weaker team is a great triumph. If students could
make every game a Homecoming spirit, every game would
be an important victory. But must we always allude to tradi
tional excuses to really back the football team?
The loss of Willie Ross for the Colorado game is going
to hurt Willie, as well as being the team's leading rusher,
is an inspirational ball player. His unique natural combina
tion of speed and power has made him a favorite of every
Husker crowd. He hasn't scored, but he hasn't had to.
Nearly every play-by-play of important Nebraska drives
this season show that Willie Ross was a major contributor.
He will be sorely missed.
His absence, though, will allow Nebraska to display
some of the depth that it does have. Maynard Smidt would
not only be a capable replacement but a fine halfback Satur
day. The probable loss of Monte Kiffin for the Buffalo game
Is not good, but his "replacement" is lloyd Voss, starter
in the first four games.
These observations plus the fact that Dennis Claridge
wfll return to the Scarlet helm should give Nebraska a
Homeceiring win. Frank Cesarek, the Buffs' better-than-
average passer, will be busy, but the Husker pass defense
improves with every game. Timely interceptions have been

Nebraskans should learn to
day whether or not quarter
back Dennis Claridge can
play at full capacity against
Colorado. Tuesday Claridge
practiced with the team, al
ternating with Fred Duda and
Doug Tucker in guiding the
first and alternate units.
Center Lyle Sittler, plagued
with a sore foot, also was in
pads but apears less likely
than Claridge to play unhamp
ered against Colorado.
Claridge should be able to
play after only punting last
week as Fred Duda, a sopho
more starting his first Ne
braska varsity game, ably
quarterbacked the first team.

Alternate quarterback Fred
Duda was a bit discouraged
after the Kansas State game
last Saturday, but Nebraska
fans weren't as Duda led the
Huskers to victory to earn
this week's Star of the Week
Award.
Playing for injured starter
Dennis Claridge, Duda direc
ted two scoring drives and
scored once himself while col
lecting 47 yards on seven car
ries rushing in the victory
over the Wildcats, 28 to 6.
In the dressing room at
Manhattan, Duda was critical
of his passing. He had com
pleted only 3 of 13 attempts.
"I waited too long on the
rollout passe s," he said,
"and that's why I had some
of them blocked by Kansas
State linemen."
Duda didn't mention that
three passes were dropped or
that two long touchdown
heaves to speedy end Dick
Callahan were only inches off
The 5-9, 185 pound Chi
cago native may start his sec
ond varsity game this "Satur
day against Colorado if
Dennis Cla ridge's knee
doesn't heal. Duda, who calls
the running pass his favorite
play, will be equal to the task.
He has Coach Bob De
vaney's confidence as the
Husker mentor praised him
for good play under pressure.
Doug Tucker led the second
team.
Halfback Willie Ross, who
received a shoulder separation
from the hard-hitting Wild
cats, is unlikely to be able to
play. Tackle Monte Kiffin is
also injured, and Coach De
vaney doesn't expect him to
be ready to play for another
week.
Coach Devaney was pleased
with the switch of Kent Mc
Cloughan to left halfback. Al
ternating with Bob Hohn at
right halfback, McCloughan
will be the fourth choice left
halfback if Ross cannot play.
Colorado passed for 150
yards against Nebraska last
year, and more of the same
is expected by Devaney this
year. Buffalo quarterback
Frank Cesarek, who has com
pleted 17 of 30 passes for 268
yards this season, will be
back. '
Halfback Bill Symons, who
scored t,he touchdown that
gave Colorado a 6 to 0 half
time lead last year, is Colora
do's top receiver with five
catches" for hundred yards.
Coach Devaney said he feels
the Cornhusker pass defense
improved greatly against Kan
sas State, and he hopes Ne
braska will be ready for what
ever aerial attack Colorado
may have.
Both teams have been
passed against considerably,
with Buffalo oponents com
pleting 44 of 109 passes for
551 yards and Nebraska oppo
nents completing 45 of 101 for
608 yards.

. Excuse, aie, sir, I'm conducting
poll for the college newspaper.
I wonder if I might ask you
a few questions?
Be my guest.
2. In your opinion, what are somA
of America's most significant
achievements in the past
50 years?
Huh?
3. Let me put it this way. During
the last naif century what new
ideas have led to important
benefits for the American people?
Well, uh-there's the
two-platoon system.
4. I'll rephrase the question. Since
1912, what developments can yot
think of that have made the lot
oi the working man easier?
Now you're getting trickjK
S. Give it a try.
Well, speaking off the top of
my head, I might say
stretch socks.
I'm sure everyone would agree
they've been useful. But isn't
there something with a bit more
social significance that comes
to mind?
There certainly is. There's
Croup Insurance, the
principle of which is to help
provide protection for those
who need it most and can
afford it least. Pioneered and
developed bv Equitable,
it has proved most efficacious,
Today, the working man
and his family enjoy a broad
spectrum of protection
provided by Group Insurance,
For that reason, I would
most emphatically suggest
its inclusion among the
significant achievements. But
I still think the two-platoon
system is pretty important
