stuff after all these years.”
After getting used to the idea,
though, he found himself looking back.
“You do your reminiscing,” Kilgore
said. “Certain events become crystal
clear, like they happened yesterday.”
Those memories include the days
ol “smash-mouth” football, when
players didn’t wear face masks.
“Kids today don’t know what real
smash-mouth football is,” he said. He
remembers being kicked in the face
by opponents. His roommate had his
teeth knocked out.
Kilgore, who played offensive and
defensive tackle, also remembers being
graded on performance by his coaches
and running laps for poor games.
“Those are not the nicest memo
ries, but you remember them.”
Mostly, though, Kilgore said he
remembers that football let him real
ize his true dream — graduating from
college.
Kilgore left Ohio’s Kent State
between his sophomore and junior
years. His family was having finan
cial problems, and he went to work as
a butcher to help support two younger
brothers.
After playing football as a walk
on freshman and a first-string varsity
sophomore, Kilgore didn’t plan to
return to school — he couldn’t afford
it.
His football coaches, however, were
so impressed by his ability during his
first two years that they persuaded
him to return by giving him an on
campus job and paying his tuition.
“The coaches made it possible for
me to finish my education,” he said.
“The coaches put academics first.”
It wasn’t easy. He went from
morning classes to football practice
in the afternoon, worked part time at
the university, then worked at an
other job from 9 p.m. to midnight to
earn extra money for his family.
That busy routine became an es
tablished one, Kilgore said. Friends
call him a workaholic, but he said he
doesn’t feel overextended.
“You don’t think about those things
— you just do it.”
Kilgore received several honors
during his college career: He lettered
in three consecutive seasons and made
First Team All-Mid-American Con
ference for two years.
“I don’t remember being outstand
ing,” Kilgore said. “I just never was
into that stuff.”
After college, Kilgore was drafted
by the Chicago Cardinals. But his
NFL career ended before it began. He
was injured in training camp, then
drafted by the Army.
Kilgore said he was never as driven
to play professional football as he
was to play in college.
“I just decided that I didn’t want to
do it,” he said. “I didn’t see that it was
fun — it was business.
“If I would’ve stayed (with the
Cardinals), I think it would have ru
ined my perspective.”
But Kilgore said he doesn’t know
if college football is as fun for the
players of today.
“In a place like this (Nebraska),
the values and demands are probably
more now.”
At 6-foot-3, Kilgore is tall but not
intimidating; his affable personality
belies his size. He’s slightly heavier
than his college playing weight of
235, but his silver hair and beard,
replacing a football crew cut, make
him distinguished-looking.
Of course, Kilgore still loves the
game and is a Comhusker fan who
attends most home games.
He said he sees a relation between
the Nebraska athletic program and
his days at Kent State.
Nebraska coaches “ want their kids
to get an academic education, too,”
he said.
Before becoming an administra
tor, Kilgore was football, wrestling
and baseball coach — as well as a
teacher—at a Cleveland high school.
Two of his students went on to careers
in professional football.
“I wasn’t going to teach anywhere
unless they let me coach,” Kilgore
said.
This is his second year as associate
dean of the Teachers College. He
came to UNL in 1977 as an assistant
professor. He now teaches and ad
vises graduate and doctoral students.
His Hall of Fame plaque from Kent
State shares the wall with awards he
has shared with students for their
doctoral dissertations.
“I’m one of the lucky people in the
world because my avocation is my
vocation,” Kilgore said. “1 love my
work — I love making a difference in
students’ lives.” _

CFA projects $ 164 student fees
By Adeana Leftin
Staff Reporter
After weeks of examining budg
ets, the Committee for Fees Alloca
tion recommended $164 for next year’s
student fees.
CFA was able to make what com
mittee member Paul Poulosky called
“very outside” estimates of next year’s
student fees.
If salaries increase 3.75 percent as
projected, student fees could be about
$164.
The projection is an increase of
5.8 percent over last year’s student

Several active members of Cam

comment, but were unavailable for
comment.
The five students listed as active
members in Campus Advance’s letter

of January. Four men were listed as
residing in Harper Hall and one woman
had an off-campus address. One stu

“A liule press conference might
be helpful, too,” she said.
Following the .presentation, Dr.
Chuck Wilson, an NU regent who
was present at the speech, said he was
not aware the regents were involved
in the decision to dismiss women
students from the classes and didn t
want to comment unlit he looked into
the matter further,

mittee stressed that these figures were
very preliminary.
James Griesen, vice chancellor for
student affairs, said he was pleased
with CFA’s efforts.
“I think we are golden,” he said.
CFA made these projections after
hearing appeals from the Nebraska
Unions.
Daryl Swanson, director of the
Nebraska Unions, made appeals for
the union budget. The recommended
budgets for the University Health
Center and Office of Campus Recrea
tion already had been approved.
The Culture Center won an appeal
Colorado, and the rest listed Lincoln
addresses as their permanent addresses.
Only one of the five students has
declared a major. One student classi
fied himself as a visiting student, a
term that applies to non-degree-seek
ing students wanting to take one or
more classes for one term, according
to the undergraduate bulletin.
John Beacon, director of admis
sions and scholarships and financial
aid, said he remembered four or five
students at the beginning of the se
mester who indicated voluntarily that
they were part of a group from Colo
rado that had come to UNL to start a
new church.
“There were probably two or three
little more than an hour on “Women
as Psychic Immigrants.”
Slcinem compared the struggle
women and immigrants have in socio
logical, economical and political
equality.
She asked the audience to consider
the various myths that afflict racial
and ethnic minorities as well as women.
For example, Steinem said, Afri
can American men often falsely are
stereotyped as physically stronger and
may be given more consideration for
a job that entails manual labor.
“With women . . . we’re good at
little derailed work” according to
mythological stereotypes, she said.

allocation $31,591.
Reshell Ray, coordinator of Eth
nic Minority Programs and Services,
said the money was crucial for the
center to continue as it has been.
“It is important and often critical
for students to socialize there,” she
said.
Andrew Sigerson.CFA chair, said
he felt the increase was justified be
cause of the programming the center

“I’m pleased with the programs
they put on. I think it’s very educa

students who were able to satisfy the
admissions requirements and were
enrolled,” Beacon said. “One of the
individuals I did not admit because
she didn’t have the necessary docu
mentation. She simply wanted me to
take her word for it, which always
leads me to believe they’re having
trouble obtaining the documents. The
only thing I thoughtof was that maybe
she owed money. 1 had no particular
reason to be suspicious.”
One Lincoln woman who said she
was approached by Lincoln Chris
tian, which is linked to Campus
Advance, said members of the group
told her they were from the Denver
Church of Christ.
Steinem further explained her
theory of the woman as a psychic
immigrantby saying that both women
and immigrants have a difficult time
as so-called outside forces breaking
into the patriarchal, hierarchical power
structure.
She said it’s very difficult for women
— like immigrants — to get upper

is designed in patriarchal fashion.
