Mustangs Dropped From Grid League Amid Turmoil
The Omaha Mustangs were dropped from the Continental Football League, likely temporarily, after a league board meeting in Indianapolis. Commissioner Jac Duntt announced the action as chairman Bob Advers withheld lengthy comment, citing dire financial trouble. A former stockholder and Rosenblatt Stadium manager, Charlie Mancuso, noted the revocation stemmed from a $2,000 assessment unpaid, while reports said the club lost over $40,000 this season with about 6,000 in average attendance and a second-place tie in the league's Central Division.
