Back Again
Every now and then one of those professional students
pops up around this institution with a winning football
team. To define, a professional student is a fella who's
been around so long, he can remember midnight hours
and no Selleck Quadrangle.
They're easy to spot ... or not spot Is more exact.
They can't be found in class (excepting hour exams) or
the bookstore (until a week before finals), their advisor's
office (they know how many housr they need and if they've
fulfilled their science requiremt) or the library (unless
a three-month fine left over from spring must be paid).
Motives vary from the obvious yet another degree
to the logical avoiding the draft. Others are still
searching for good old Utopia.
Now Take Monte
Some would just as soon be out, but they're here due
to circumstance, an element which tends to botch up plans
occassionally. Monte Kiffin, who won three letters as a
Husker tackle, would just as soon, be playing that same
position for the Minnesota Vikings of the National Foot
ball League, but that's not the way things turned out.
During his third week of rookie camp, Kiffin's knee
began to swell up after practice sessions, so the Viking
coaches told him to return home and try to work it back
into shape. Monte's been giving it a go, but the knee hasn't
been responding to rest and light workouts, so he's en
rolled again at NU to work on his Master's Degree in edu
cation. "After the second week, I thought it was going to be
all right," Kiffin said. "But then I started having trouble
again, so the coaches told me to come home."
The Viking coaches put their 15th draft choice at of
fensive right tackle where It's pretty tough to break in as
an inexperienced rookie. "They push you pretty fast," Kif
fin said. "If you're a rookie you go at it right away, es
pecially on offense. There's alot to learn if you're on of
fense and you really study alot at night."
It's not the first time injury has cut Kiffin from a full
season. In his early Husker days a bad back slowed him
after coming to NU a highly touted All-State and All
America out of Lexington. He also played in two high
school All-America games.
Back in the Togs
But his being out of the Viking picture for a year
aoesni mean tne Z3i-pouna Kimn won't be. around the
girdiron. Monte will handle the defensive line coaching
chores for freshmen coaches John Melton and Cletus Fisch
er this year.
And he's got plenty of beef to work with. A quick look
at the frosh roster shows but one tackle, guard or center
under 200 pounds with one lad scaling in at 305. The backs
are nothing to overlook either.
Included in that picture are Al Fierro, Big Springs,
Tex., quarterback who passed for 241 yards in the second
half of Texas 12-6 loss to Pennsylvania in their high school
all-star game; Ben Gregory, who scored the winning TD in
that fray from Uniontown, Pa.; Paul Critchlow, Omaha
Benson speedster named the top back in the Shrine Bowl
game; quarterbacks Denny Morrison and Miles Kimniel
and halfbacks Marv Mueller and Al Kuehl, 210-pound Wis
consin star.
Of course, the varsity squad interests Monte and he
figures the Huskers will have a good season if the young
linemen progress. The indicator will be this week's game
with Minnesota of the Big Ten, where the worst team al
ways has a tough line.
I'll have to confide in those young linemen and count
the deep backfield to call it, NEBRASKA 13, Minnesota 7.
Husker Headliner
Jeter Cains Award
(Editor's Note: This fall
the former Star of the Week
award will be known as the
"Husker Headliner." As in
the past, each week some
Husker athlete will be sin
gled out for special merit.)
Junior end Tony Jeter con
tinued the stellar defensive
play and crushing blocking
that he d i s p 1 a y e d in the
Orange Bowl last January to
snare the Daily Nebraskan's
first star of the week award.
The West Virginia import
pounced on two Co, te fum
bles last. Saturday to set up
touchdowns that turned the
contest into a complete rout.
Jeter is currently majoring
in physical education with
an eye toward a career in
physical therapy. Tony cur
rently plans to enter a therapy
school following his stint at
Nebraska.
Jeter has membership in
the Kappa Alpha Psi social
and the Phi Epsilon Kappa
professional fraternities.
He chose the Husker cam
pus because he liked coach
Devaney and his staff.
Tony spends what spare
time he can muster from foot
ball and classes engaged in
several of the intra-mural
sports offered on the Corn
husker campus.
When it comes to relaxa
tion, Jeter listens to the
various jazz records that he is
able to obtain. He is a particu
lar fan of the modern progres
sive sound.

Finally, the games have
