'daily oebfskfi spoils j Dear Sir: Students beware. On a footbali Saturday this fall, while engaged in that sales practice generally found on the east side of the stadium, a companion and I had the misfortune to encounter a member of Campus Police. As a result of this episode, we both had our tickets confiscated. uranteo, tms may nave oeen a proper action in view or tne warning we receiver wnen we purchased our tickets. However, there are some aspects of our encounter that bother me. I particularly resent the arbitrariness of the action against us. Prior to our problem, two others were also detained. Only one of them accompanied us on our journey to the office of Campus Police. According to our compatriot in this heinous crime, me otner was released oecause he provided a sufficient excuse. Incidently, it was necessary for two officers to accompany us. Presumably, we could have overpowered one man. I would think the other should have been busy fereting out others like us. Besides the foregoing, I also found the arresting officer s conduct somewhat lacking. When he learned of my senior status, my fate was sealed. I was told, and this is no joke, that if he ever caught me doing this sort of thing again he would see to it that I would go downtown and spend some time in a cell. At the end of our session I was advised that if I continued this sort of criminal activity, I was headed for trouble. Perhaps since I am a lost soul I should consider dropping out. As a final point, can the ticket office be so naive as to believe this activity does not exist? r" . I would like to see at least some consistency in enforcement and perhaps action against ticket ' misusers other than students. I would be interested in knowing how many oiner siuaents nave naa tms problem. Bill Randall Sooners dominate All Big 8 Nebraska has five athletes on an otherwise Oklahoma dominated All Big 8 team selected by sports writers of student newspapers at conference universities. Huskers on the team are linebacker Tom Ruud, quarterback David Humm, offensive tackle Marvin Crenshaw, offensive guard Tom Alward and center Rik Bonness. League champion Oklahoma, rated first in the latest Associated Press football ratings, placed five players on the defensive unit, while four Sooner athletes were chosen for the offense. Sooner running back Joe Washington and linebacker Rod Shoate were picked as the league's offensive and defensive players of the year, respectively. Humm pass percentage Setting numerous Nebraska, Big 8 and NCAA passing records, Humm started three years at quarterback for the Huskers. It was recently announced that Humm had accumulated the third best pass completion percentage for a career in the history of the NCAA. Finishing fifth in this year's Heisman Trophy competition, Humm was named along with Crenshaw to the Kodak Ail-American Team, which is selected by the American Coaches Association. Crenshaw, Bonness and Aiward were mainstays in the Husker offensive line that gave Humm exceptional pass protection this season. Ruud made a name for himself this season, although the presence of Shoate prevented his recognition as the best linebacker in the league. He had been overlooked in almost all of the pre season all-conference teams. Mentioned Huskers Six other Huskers gained mention on at least one of the twelve ballots. They were Bob Nelson, Bob Martin, John Lee, Tony Davis, Mark Doak and Dave Shamblin. Shamblin's selection on two ballots came as a surprise, considering he sat out the entire season with a knee injury. One can either be either critical of the awareness of those writers or assume Shamblin made quite a name for himself last season. If any player would be labeled surprise player of the year it would have to be Missouri's Tony Galbreath. Galbreath, a vital cog in the Missouri offense during its 21-10 upset of the Huskers, was a junior college transfer from Centerville (Iowa) Community College. 'laverne Smith, a Kansas running back, was named Big 8 sophomore of the year by the writers after averaging over 100 yards a game this season. Every school, except Kansas State, placed athletes on the team. Iowa State had four athletes named, Oklahoma State and Missouri each named two and Colorado placed one player on defense.

Don Fambrough, head football coach at Kansas University has decided to call it quits for good. In his four years as head coach of the Jayhawks, Fambrough compiled a 19-25-1 record. Fambrough, 52, took over the coaching chores from Pepper Rodgers in 1971 when Rodgers resigned to go to UCLA! l a . . . . "There never is an ideal time, but I feel now is the lime to check in. It was a hard decision and the statement I made four years ago still holds: I'll never coach anywhere else," Fambrough said. Kansas recorded 4-7 marks during Fambrough s first two years. However, in 1973, the team, with senior Dave Jaynes at quarterback, finished 7-3-1 and went to the Liberty Bowl where the Jayhawks lost to North Carolina State, 31-18. The Wildcats of Kansas State also aie looking for a new head coach. Vince Gibson, long time head man there, announced his resignation in November after K-State upset Colorado in their final game of the season. According to Wally Provost, columnist for The Omaha World-Herald, .everal Nebraska fans would like a change in the Co; nhusker coaching administra tion, too. They believe Tom Osborne should "step aside" and let Monte Kiffin become Nebraska's head football coach. iini lamia I ii mi iiiiiiiiu ua i m am miwjitoimmiw IJi T77Y is i i f&l ir? 4 ;a&Vf&a; Bean Bag Chairs and all supplies 20-40 Gift certificates now available ii n UJ ' ;. y C 3 1601 So. 17 432-5598 page 1b" daily nebraskan thursday, decemberS, 1974 f
