POSITION
Veteran Guard Teams With
Henrion, Lunney, Eno,
Pailing in Drill.
Attho Coach Harold Browne was
in Kansas City Monday attending
a big Six conference meeting of
athletic directors and faculty rep
resentatives, his basketball squad
pegged away during his absence
under the direction of George
"Dutch" Koster, former varsity
cafester.
Koster devoted most of yester
day's workout to scrimmage, di
viding a group of about twenty
into teams and tossing them in
against each other. Fundamentals
came in for a brief rehearsal pre
ceding the scrimmage.
Steve Hokuf and George Sauer
reported for the first time Mon
day, but did not participate in the
play. Ralph Eldridge, sophomore
gridder from the B team ranks
was out and saw considerable ser
vice at a guard position.
Mason to Forward?
A move that may find Paul Ma
son, varsity guard from last year's
five and one of the best defensive
players in the conference, occupy
ing a forward post this season was
seen likely Monday. Mason teamed
up at forward with Ken Lunney,
while Walt Henrion was placed at
the center post and Eno and Pail
ing at the guard posts. Eno, for
mer College View player, played
center on this combination, drop
ping back to guard on defense.
This lineup permits Henrion to be
stationed at center defensively and
still makes use of his shooting
ability.
Mason, considered the best shot
on the varsity is not unfamiliar
with a position on the forward
line, as he played there during his
high school competition at Omaha
North.
The quintet of Mason, Lunney,
Henrion, Eno and Pailing showed
the best form during the drill
while Glenn LeDioyt, North Platte;
Bud Parsons, former Jackson high
star; Robert Belka, Crete, and
John Delaney, David City, also
stood out.
Parsons Stands Out.
Parsons, a sophomore, got into
the A lineup at forward before
the conclusion of the practice an!
gave a fine account of himself.
Pailing is also a sophomore, play
ing at Grnwood high before en
tering the university. He is a
guard.
Glenn LeDioyt, who played cen
ter last year with the B squad is
making a serious bid for a varsity
position at guard. LeDioyt has
plenty of height and has a good
basket eye. ,
In addition to Parsons, Pailing
and Eno other sophomores who
have a good chance to go places
in the court game are Charles Wil
liams, Warsaw, Ind., a flashy per
former at forward; George Wahl
quist, a fast moving forward from
Hastings; Ralph Eldridge, Norfolk,
who is bidding for a guard job;
Carroll Eisenhait, elongated center
from Culbertson; Robert Belka,
Crete, a fine guard and floor man

When you glance over the excel
lent record made by the Nebraska
football team this fall, don't fail to
give plenty of credit to a lanky
gridster by the name of Bernie
Masterson. Rarely sensational and
not a colorful performer, Master
son has been of great value to his
team because he has delivered l!?.
the pinches!
Against Iowa State in the first
erame of the season, Bernie
plunged across for the first touch
down. George Sauer threw a pass
to Masterson that scored the only
touchdown made by the Huskers
against Minnesota. Again in the
Iowa game, the ex-Lincoln high
school player was on the receiving
end of en aerial thrown by Steve
Hokuf. He kicked the point after
touchdown that won the Iowa U.
tilt. It was Bernie who booted the
field goal that won for Nebraska
the Big Six championsnlp. Finally,
in the Southern Methodist game,
Masterson took a lateral pass
from Hokuf and eluded two
tacklers for a touchdown. Alto
gether, he has tallied thirty-six
points during the season, leading
all the Cornhusker backs.
Bernie is a steady player. He
plays hard and, admittedly, well.
Because he was given the job of
running the team this year, the
190-pound quarterback subordi
nated "sis ball carrying ability. As
a line bucker Masterson ranks
among the best. But the best part
of it all is the fact that he will be
back again for another season, his
last for Nebraska.
Husker cagemen receive their
first competitive test Dec. 16 when
the University of Arkansas Razor
backs come to Lincoln. It will be
a real problem for Coach Harold
Browne to whip his men into
shape in the next ten days, so that
they can present a good exhibition
against the Fayetteville quintet.
Busy with his football duties until
now, "Brownie" , must shift the
scene quickly to the maple sport.
But you can bet your last dime
that Nebraska will have a good
team this season, one for whom
no alibis will need be offered.

OR. ALLEN PREDICTS
OKLAHOMA WILL WIN
BIG SIXCAGE CROWN
Kansas Basketball Mentor
Selects Nebraska to
Finish Third.
LAWRENCE, Kas. Dr. F. C.
Allen, director of athletics at the
University of Kansas, picks Okla
homa to win the Big Six basket
ball title in 1932-33, because that
school has seven conditioned let-
termen, none of whom played foot
ball, and so had the entire fall to
work out their pet plays and to
get in good physical condition. Me
expects Missouri to place second,
Nebraska third, with Kansas a
close fourth or near third. Kansas
and Iowa State, he said, are the
undetermined quantities.
Bruce Drake, in Dr. Allen's opin
ion the greatest basketball strate
gist and ball handler that Okla
homa ever produced, is assisting
Hugh McDermott with the varsity
squad. While McDermott has been
busv with the football squad,
Drake has been handling the bas
ketball team, showing them the
cleverness he developed for three
sterling years with the Sooner var
sity, two of which were Big Six
championhsip years.
The Sooners fell short only four
points of the championship last
year. Seven main reasons for Ok
lahoma's bid for the championship
will be Andy Beck, Percy Main,
Elvin Anderson, Ervyll Bross,
Harold LeCrone, Howard Brock
man, and Jude Potts.
Andy Beck Returns.
Dr. Allen characterizes this
year's Oklahoma team as the most
powerful Sooner aggregation that
he has been forced to face since
the Vic Holt, Tom Churchill, Bruce
Drake combination of champion
ship days. The team has scoring
power plus finesse. In Andy Beck,
the ail-American high school tor
ward from Oklahoma City, Okla
homa boasts of a forward as clever
as Bruce Drake was in his palmy
days. Sooner teams have been
noted for their offensive tactics,
This combined with a powerful and
clever defense stamps Oklahoma
decisively as the favorite team
from the Jayhawker coach s angle
Id Omar "Bud" Browning,
sophomore star from Enid, the
Sooners have a man that the
coaches believe will land a regular
position on the Sooner five. With
the seven lettermen and Browning
to work with, the little Scotsman
from Norman is expected to de
velop a team even faster and more
powerful than the Sooner outfit
which whipped every team in the
conference at least once last year,
George Rody, an old Kansas star
who is now coaching Tulane and
who handled the Oklahoma Aggies
two years, says Browning is tne
greatest running scorer he has
ever seen in high school.
Since all of the conference
coaches are looking for tall cent
ers, the Sooner dream seems to
have been realized in Charlie Mun-
son who tips the ball at the height
of 6 feet 4 inches.
Paul Young Out.
Adrian Lindsey, varsity football
coach at Kansas, says that Mun-
son is undoubtedly a great basket
ball player and will be a definite
contribution for the Sooner's bid
for a drive down the Big Six
championship, highway. Paul
Young from the varsity football
team is another 6 foot 4 inch
player who will help the Sooners
m an aggressive way.
During the last two champion
ship seasons when Kansas won the
Big Six title, four of the first team
selections in the all-star Big Six
aggregation have been Jaybawk-
ers. Frosty Cox and Tom Bishop
were chosen two years ago, and
Ted O'Leary, high scorer, and Lee
Page, guard, also Big Six first
team selections, have completed
their varsity competition. Bill
Johnson is the only other Big Six
first team selection that remains
to carry on. Kansas loses their
scoring ace, O'Leary, as well as
one of their chief defensive cogs in
Lee Page.
Missouri Strong.
Missouri, too, has its whole
strength back with the exception
of Max Collings. John Cooper, the
Kentucky youth, who tied with
Ted O'Leary for high scoring hon
ors, has two more years. Norman
Wagner, 6 feet 4 Inch center from
St Louis is playing his third and
final season this winter.
Nebraska is expected to come
back with a bang this year, hav
ing a new mentor in Coach W.
Harold Browne. Steve Hokuf,
from Crete, Neb., is the Corn
husker star guard.
Kansas State may prove to be
more powerful than the dopesters
predict when Dogal Russell, said
to be a better basketball player
than football player, reports along
with Ralph Graham, both of whom
are injured at present. It was the
Aggies last year who snuffed out
the Tiger's aspirations for the tie
of the Big Six title in the last'
conference game at Manhattan.
Iowa State seems to be in a bad
way so far as veterans are con
cerned. Only Captain Thomson
returns from the splendid Ames
team of last year.
