But the hardest games are yet to come, with the Oklahoma Sooners, who are holding Hn.0nd nlace in the Valley cage race and the Oklahoma Aggies who meet the boys of Coach Black on tne col iseum floor Friday and Saturday nights. Both games will count in the conference standings. Friday night the Nebraskans face v the Oklahoma Sooners, who are con sidered one of the strongest quintets in the conference. Nebraska too tne mint ftl the southern team when they met at Norman and should the team from Soonerland win the game on the home court, Nebraska's chance at the title will be almost shattered. Coach Hugh McDermotfs line-up will be Victor Holt, the six foot six inch center, battling Page for the tip-off, Captain West and Drake at the for ward positions, Haller and Pinkerton at the guards. Play Agg-iea Saturday Saturday night's game will' be with the Oklahoma Aggies, would-be con tenders for the title crown. The Ag gies were successful in trimming the Huskers when the visited Stillwater some weeks back, but since then have gone down to defeat at the hands of Washington and Missouri, causing them to lose considerable prestige in conference basketball circles. The Oilers are in a sixth place tie with the Kansas Aggies and meet the Kan sas Staters the night before the clash with the Huskers. Coach Charley Black took his Scar let and Cream cagera through a two hour drill last night, devoting most of the time to the inveterate short pass game, that proved so disastrous to the Bengals Monday. Fifty from the foul line, long high arched shots and passing completed the program of the Husker coach. No Prediction Made Ted Page, the Cornhusker giant, was getting his daily exercise tipping them in from under the basket, while Andreson and Holm were arching the ball through the net from the middle of the court. Coach Black is pointing his squad to the pair of games with the two southern teams this week end and makes no predictions as to the outcome. The games this week are: Friday Oklahoma at Nebraska. Oklahoma Aggies at Kansas Aggies Grinnell at Kansas. Saturday Oklahoma at Kansas Aggies. Oklahoma Aggies at Nebraska. The Missouri Valley cage race, in cluding games of Monday, February 14: W L Pet.

More than a dozen Sooner track men will represent the University of Oklahoma in the annual Kansas City Athletic club indoor meet which will be held at Kansas City February 19.

The Hawkeyes have a fast aggressive mat squad this season and have not lost a match. There will be few changes in the Nebraska lineup from that which faced the Cyclones last Saturday, Karrer will handle the 125-pound class instead of Carpenter. The rest of the squad will be the same that wrestled the Ames squad. Kish will be in the 115-pound class, Luff in the 135-pound class, Captain Brannigan in the 145-pound class, Toman in the 158-pound class and Davis in the heavy assignment. In the tryouts last night, Carpen ter showed up quite well, but lacked the necessary few seconds of the de cision to put the time over on Karrer. The two men went for two extra per iods, with neither man having very much of an edge, but after the sec ond extra period, Karrer had the de cision and will represent the Huskerf at Iowa City. Lundy won the right to represent Nebraska at Iowa City by defeating McBride in the tryouts last night. IN THE VALLEY ..By.. JACK ELLIOTT The undefeated Kansas University wrestling team will meet the Iowa State grapplers at Ames Saturday for a Valley meet. The Kansas squad is tied for first place with Ames and the Oklahoma Aggies. There will be several changes in the Cyclone lineup from that which wrestled the Huskers last week. Grooms, who wrestled Captain Bran nigan at Lincoln last week cracked a rib in the match and will give way to Rex Campbell, Mid-West A. A. U. champion. Campbell has won every meet entered this year in a decisive fashion. The Ames captain will prob ably be moved up to the heavyweight and Blair will replace Wolf. Although Kansas entered wrestling circles only three years ago the Jay hawkers, under the coaching of Guy Lockabangh, former Oklahoma Ag gie 158-pounder, have gcae unde feated this year. The Jay hawkers are not on the Husker wrestling schedule this year. The present standing of the wrest ling teams in the Missouri Valley conference. V7. L. Pet.
