Since that time, several schools decided if "you
can't beat-em, join-em," and adopted Royal's
wishbone style offense with success.
One school '.va.s UCLA, which installed the
vuhnone last fall and tried it out foi the first time on
'he Mo. 1 colleqe team in the nation, the Nebraska
Cumhusk.Ms. Result, UCLA 20, Nebraska 17.
Today, playing with the wishbone is one of the
most hated games on college campuses including
UNL.
Cornhusker Coach Tom Osborne announced
Monday that the next several spuria practices for h s
Nebraska team will be spent working on ways to stop
the dieaded wishbone attack.
Why has Osborne decided to put so much
emphasis u.n Nelaaska's defensive game-1 On Sept. 8,
the Coi nhusker s will open their season in a nationally
televised game from Lincoln against none other than
UCLA.

What makes every Nebraska coach, player and fan
a bit jittery, is that UCLA returns three backfield
starters from last year's squad that whipped a strong
Nebraska team.
When Biuin coach Prpx;r Rodgers wheels into
town next fall, he will hung along backfield veterans
Keimit Johnson, James McAlister and Maik Haimon,
Despite all of UCLA's talent, Osborne's squad is
far from throwing in the towel or waving the white
surrender flag.
Th- f ji btaska coach said he e, pleased with his first
unit so fai ihi, spnng but has a couple of holes to fill.
One of tin- spots giving Osborne trouble is the
tackle slot left open by the graduation of Bill Janssen.
Three players, Doug Johnson, Dean Gissler and
Ron Pruitt have been staging a battle royal all spring
trying to win the starting berth on the blackshirt
defensive unit.
If you hav'r- a (, fiance, stop by Memorial Stadium
and watch the Huskers ptepdie for the Wishbone, a
game !h it has graduated from an after-dinner treat to
a ha!-d off'-reive football technique.

Faculty joggers grab relay record
by Kim Ball
It may not go down in the Guiness Book of World
Recoids, but 20 UNL faculty members set a new
national standard that may last awhile.
On April 14, running on UNL's all-weather Track,
Doug Dienstbier, Roger Wiegand, Doug Erlandson,
Chuck Sayward, Jim Carr, Roy Sneddon, Robert
Brown, Don Lins, Henry Baumgarton and Phil Sienna,
ran the "10 x 10" (10 people, each, running 10 miles)
relay in 1 1 hours, 15 minutes and 6 seconds.
Their time eclipsed the old record, held by the
University of Toledo faculty, by 19 minutes.
Toledo's faculty was the first one to run the 10 x
10 relay. They ran it last fall to commemorate the
school's 100th anniversary. Toledo since has issued
challenges to faculties at 1,000 schools to break its
record.
It wasn't really a relay for the UNL faculty. All 10
runners started at the same time, each tunning at his
own pace.
Their times for the 10 miles ranged from
Say ward's 58 minutes and 50 seconds to
Baumgarten's 74 minutes and 46 seconds. Sayward, a
professor of philosophy, averaged a credible 5:53 a
mile.
It was Sienna who first heard about Toledo's
record and organized the team.
"I told some of the faculty joggers and they all
kind of liked the idea and they started workinq out
for it," Sienna said.
Most of the guys run over 30 miles a week,"
Sienna said. "Chuck Sayward runs 80-100 miles a
week. We work out pretty often for old men who
have nothing to stay in shape for."
What if a college faculty breaks their 10 x 10
record?
"I'm sure if somebody treats our recoid, we'll go
after it next fall," Sienna said.
