WW 'k 1 1 f i WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 4, 196 PAGE: THE DAILY NEBRASKAN tiiiiiiiiiiituiiiiiiiiiiiMiiitiiiiiiiiiiitiiii!iiriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitMiiiii(ittiiiriniriiifiiiiitiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitM I Re Marks by Mark Gordon Sports Editor Football teams once looked forward to Pasadena. Miami, Dallas or New Orleans for a big New Year's Day Bowl game, but now with the abundance of farcical bowl encounters, some teams can even play in a bowl game at Murfreesboro, Tenn. The Rose, Orange, Cotton and Sugar Bowls were once considered the only bowls, but this season there are 22 bowl or all-star football games. This ridiculous number of post-season attractions makes plaving in a bowl game as rare as Nebraska fumble. OUR BET is that with the exception of the big four bowls and possibly the Bluebonnet and Gator Bowl the other bowls will draw less than capacity crowds. Truthfully, do we need the Orange Blossom Classic Miami, the Pecan Bowl Arlington, Tex., the Grantland Rice Bowl Murfreesboro, the Boardwalk Bowl at Atlantic City, N.J. or the Peach Bowl at Atlanta? Don't misconstrue this as dejection because Nebraska was not selected to participate in one of these phoney shows for the television cameras. We seriously doubt if the Huskers would have accepted a bowl bid to one of the lesser bowls had it been offered. ALL SPORTS drag their season to an unbearable length running well into other sport seasons, ihe world Series wasn't over until the middle of October and the current football season won't end until basketball and hockey teams are almost half completed with their regular season. If some of these bowl games, which are as mean ingless as the mythical state football men scnooi ranKings bv our Omaha and Lincoln daily friends, would be eliminated, football interest would not be stretched to its utmost level. WHILE CONGRATULAT ING the eight players named to our all-star flag football team, we would like to ask the intramural managers and coaches if any teams deserve the all-University sportsman ship award. THE INTRAMURAL Department awards a sportsmanship ranking each year. While we don t know who will win this year, we can name two or three organizat ions which may win athletic events but fail miserably at sportsmanship. It's also surprising that the same organizations which we have heard so . many deraeatorv comments about also have not submitted anv Space program to be presented "Apollo Up to Date" will be explored by W. J. Leseman, Jr., Thursday Dec. 5 accord ing to Dr. Frank E. Sorenson, coordinator of aerospace edu cation. Leseman is Director of Fa cilities and Industrial Engin eering for the Space Division of North American Rockwell Corporation. He is responsible for providing facilities, ma terial, handling equipment and industrial engineering services for the Appollo Program and Saturn II second stage.

We base our choices for the weekly awards on not only athletic prowess, but on the Individual's approach when we contact them. It's a good thing those groups concerned have not named anyone we probably would have disqualified them for their sportsmanship. LAST YEAR, Nebraska basketballers made a two game western swing to Washington State, losing the first match 93-70 then winning the second 91-76 and predic ting that inconsistency would plague last winter's crew during the entire season. This Friday NU Coach Joe Cipriano's band meets Oregon State at Corvallis and battles Oregon at Eugene Saturday in a series that could determine Husker fortunes for this season. A two"-game split like last season could foreshadow an erratic team, while two close games, either going for or against Nebraska could signal a strong or weak crew. Two- games in two nights could prove tiring when Nebraska meets perenially strong Wichita in Lincoln Dec. 10. We look for Nebraska to leave Oregon with no less than an even division. WE HAVE nothing against smaller children playing basketball, but can't they find someplace else to practice other than the Coliseum court during halftime of Nebraska basketball matches? If the best halftime enter tainment Lincoln can discover is a group ot iu-year-oias playing ball, then this area is really in the dark ages, wnat happened to halftime gym nastic shows, ping-pong matches (why not nave Cipriano face NU Football Coach Bob Devaney in a poing-pong match?) or tumbling demonstrations? LAST WORDS Athletic Ticket Manager Jim Pit tenger reports 2,292 Student All-Sports Tickets have been sold, but many remain on sale at the Coliseum Ticket Office. Take advantage of this at tractive offer. Medical School interviews set for this week Interviews for applicants to the University of Nebraska College of Medicine in the fall of 1969, will be held on Thurs day and Friday, Dec. 5 and 6. All interviews will be conduct ed in the placement office on the second floor of the Union. Dr. Mary J. Henn, Chair man of the Interview Com mittee, has stated that if necessary, those students who live in Omaha can arrange for an interview at the College of Medicine during the Christ mas recess. She would prefer however, that as many stu dents as possible, including those from Omaha, take their interview in Lincoln on the above dates. At the present time there 107 premedical students who have registered for inter views on this campus. How ever, there is still time avail Dr. Paul A. Landolt, Chair of Premedical Advisors, requests that any student who has not already registered for interview get in touch with him to fill out an interview schedule. He may be con tacted at 440 Oldfather. hristmas play tickets on sale Advanced sale of tickets for the Lincoln Community Play house Christmas presentation "The Wizard of Oz" will through Dec. 7.
