Typical Day
itOklahoma
Cage Drills
. Coach Demonstrates
NORMAN, Okla. The Old Man
reaches in his pants pocket and
carefully lays his cigarettes and
his key ring on the bleacher seats,
then steps out on the shiny bas
ketball floor.
He is bare-waisted but wears
basketball shoes, long trousers
and a confident exprision.
"All right!" he chirps, cockily,
"I'll play with the Skins. Let s
go!
Drake Plays Too.
It is Bruce Drake, the Okla
homa basketball coach and 13
years ago captain of a Big Six
chamDlonshiD Oklahoma team
that was all-victorious in confer
ence play. Short one player, the
36-vear-old Sooner mentor decides
to personally fill in as the tenth
man at the fag end of the aany
drill.
The Sooner varsity that has
won six straight Big Six games
has gone In, showered, and re
turns to aee the coach do his
"comeback." With shouts of glee
they linger along the sideline in
civies to see the fun and rib
Drake.
Ug Roberts Speaks.
"Look out there. Dad. you'll get
racked!" shouts A. D. "Ug" Rob
erta, the varsity's crack lorwara
and cleverest lockev.
"Everybody pass to the coach!"
razzes big Gerald Tucker in his
space-piercing tenor.
"The losers buys the winners
an orange squeeze!" calls Dick
Reich.
Wild Melee.
Drake crins but pays no atten
tion. The scrtmmacre starts. The
coach mixes it with hla boys but
seems to have lost nis touch. They
Intercept his passes, block his
shots and take the ball away from
him. Nobody shows him any
mercy.
After two or three sprints up
and down the biz floor, the Old
Man begins to puff. He tries to
drive in ior a set-up dui some
vannie-an eivea him the hip and
he hurtles into the bleachers,
barking his shin. He is awarded
a free throw at the rar end or tne
court but elects to save the long
walk by pegging the ball in from
out of bounds where ne is stana-
inc. Soon he is plavir.er a station-
arv forward under his own eroal.
Evervbodv on his siae respect
fully throws him the ball if he is
at all open.
"Yah! Yah!" the varsity snriens
at every pass to the coach. "Tryin'
to make the ciuo:"
Proves Self.
Finallv tirine of the good-na
tured abuse, the Old Man turns
himself loose and for one thrilling
nlnv tAkes the astonished specta
tors back to the Bruce Drake of
a dozen vears aro.

final count was 16-12 which is the
most heartening exhibition that the
Huskers have given in the hurt two
