Stadium's . half -mast flag

Rood Awakening-
It happened a week ago last Saturday, but should not
be forgotten ... it nearly was.
As 38,000 Nebraskans roared at every action of the
players on the field, the nation mourned the loss of a great
leader. When the Husker field goal split the goal posts, the
crowd screamed with delight while the nation whimpered
with sorrow- As Nebraskans glued their eyes to the gridiron,
the nation's millions stared in disbelief at television ac
counts of the President's assassination. As the Nebraskans
stood to roar their encouragement to a football team, a
nation could only sit down and ponder a tragedy.
And so it happened that 38,000 Nebraskans rushed to a
football game only hours after their President had been
shot. Thousands of people poured into the Memorial Sta
dium grandstands and bleachers with illusions of a vindica
tion for their presence. ' This important -game could be
played at no other time; the nation couldn't stop everything
in memory of the slain President; the. President himself
was a sports enthusiast.
One really didn't know whether to cheer or cry . . .
comment here on the Oklahoma-Nebraska game is old, un
necessary, and absurb . . . about as old, unnecessary, and
absurb as the game itself.
