The Kansas State Wildcats
opened their cage season with a
35-30 win over a good-looking
frosh team. The Wildcats have a
new coach this year, Jack Gard
ner, former Southern California
star. Gardner came from Modesto
Junior college in California where
he enjoyed a successful reign, win
ning three championships in four
years.
Coach Gardner has the big task
of getting the Wildcats out of the
Big Six conference cellar where
they have had a continuous reign
for many years. His job is not
any easier by the fact that Kan
sas, Oklahoma, Iowa State, Mis
souri and Nebraska have plenty
of lettermen back .and all are
pointing for the Big Six crown.
Four lettermen.
Four lettermen form the nucleus
for the present edition of the Wild
cat cage team. Krvin Reid, Joe
Robertson, Ernie Miller and Mel
vin Seelye are the boys from last
year's team who earned letters.
Krv Retd. forward on last year's
team, is holding down th center
spot this year. Joe Robertson is
the only experienced forward back
and Mehrin Seeyle and Ernie Mil
ler give the Wildcats two guards,
with experience.
Other smi who have squad ex
perience are Kenny Graham,
guard; Norris Holstrom, guard;
Don Munxer, guard; and Frank
Woolf, forward. Munxer and Seel
ye have jast reported for practice
as both were members of the
football team. Jack Horacek,
Warren Hornsby and D. S. Guer
rant are juniors who are showing
up well in. practice but they lack
game experience.
Sophomores on the squad are
Wilbur Reed, Richard Checksfield,
Ted Garrett, Dan Howe, Don Neu
bauer. Earl Olson, Jack Young,
Dick Wolgast, Keith Money, and
Hiram Musset
Reid at center.
In the varsity-frosh game Coach
Gardner used Erv Reld at center,
Jack Horacek and Joe Robertson
at forwards and Ernie Miller and
Kenny Graham at guards. Reid
played forward last year and
teamed with Homer "Thin Man"
Wesche, all-Big Six center of lasx
year's team to do most of the
scoring.
Wesche is coaching the fresh
man team this season and Chili
Cochrane, frosh coach is assisting
Gardner with the varsity.
Woolf short.
Erv Reid Is expected to con
tribute much to the Wildcat scor
ing this season as he is a clever
boll handler and a good man under
the basket. Horacek and Robert
son are good shots and show prom
ise of being point makers for the
Wildcats. Miller and Graham are
fast and good ball handlers and
can hit from far out which should
give the Gardner-tutored boys
better balance as far as scoring
goes. Woolf is fast and tricky man
around the basket but his height
is against him he is only five feet
five inches tall. Holstrom and
Guerrant show promise at the
guard spots as both can hit and
handle the ball well. Dan Howe of
the sophomore group is making
strides toward a forward berth
but he lacks game experience.
Seeyle will see action at one of
the guard posts as he is a ball
hawk and good defensive man. He
was quarterback on the football
team this season and is a senior.
