Unless all signs and omens fail, Cornhusker ranks will be
benefited in 1958 by enhance into varsity football of a blond,
Jine-busting halfback. '
We spfflk naturally of the honorable Danny, youngest sire
of Coach Glenn Presnrll. Now three years old, young Danny
already shows signs of inheriting his dad's fine physique. He
NaUo possesses the Presnell grin.
Danny can be soon at any home Cornhusker basketball fray,
resplendent in a diminutive "N" sweater. Danny's dad ex
plains the finer points to hira from the Presnell family box
beneath the big time clock on the Coliseum south wall.

"What's that?" boomed the loud voice from the rear, "Looks
like a victim of Pright's disease." Little Joe Kidgeway, high
scorer with 13 points in the recent K-State-Husker cage mix,
had just trotted onto the Coliseum maples.
We still can't drive this tiny fellow Ridgeway from our
thoughts. If a more unoffensive and spindy gent ever crosses
Dusker niaplesDunkcr doesn't count), we want a first-hand
view.
Phi Gams
Click During
Second Half
.... Beat Delta
After being stymied during the
first half f play, during which
they managed to pot only nine

League One all by themselves
since the Delta fell by the way.

with five.

Top Mizzou
Five, 56-50
By Henry Flshback.
Swiftly counter-attacking on a
brilliant second half outcourt bas
ket barrage, Ad Lewandowski's
Scarlet bucket brigade rallied from
a first canto retreat to whip Mis
souri 56 to 50 before 4,000 scream
ing casaba fans on the coliseum
hardwood last eve.
Forging a tight man-to-man de
fense the Husker paralized the
Tiger offense much of the second
half and ripped the mesh for 37
digits themselves in moving into
third position in Big Six stand
ings.
Elson Red Hot.
Kenney Elson's and steady
"Moxie" Young's uncanny marks
manship from far out provided
N. U. spark. Elson dunked in 14
digits and Young looped in 11.
John Thompson hit from the
field to ignite the second half fire
works, with Young and Heinzel
man hustling in two goals apiece
and Fitzgibbon scoring from the
foul line to make N. U. to net a
32 to 32 deadlock with the stanza
five minutes old.
Missouri's Jenkins and Austin
counter-sank one goal apiece for
37-33 lead but Heinzelman, Fitz
gibbon and Cassidy fired again to
net the tilt. Nebraska's Elson
then went red hot from the side
with three successive scores and
Young tallied as the Cornhuskers
scored nine consecutive digits
booming into a commanding 49 to
39 lead never relinquished. The
Tigers pulled up in closing seconds
on Jenkins and Garwitz scoring
but Cassidy 'a and Brown's hoop
savvy put the affair on ice for the
Huskers.

Huskers
urprise
Wildcats
. . . Win 66-38
Slamming two events and win
ning four more, Ed Weir's Corn
husker track and field perform
ers regained a portion of the pres
tige they lost at Missouri hands
last week by thumping Ward Hay
lett's Kansas State tracksters, 66
to 38. beneath the east stadium
Saturday afternoon.
Long-geared Al Brown oosted
the top Husker timine-a of thA
day in winning the 440 and 880
events. The former Omaha Ben
son speedster brushed aside his
supposed "equal" Upham-to
score an easy 51-flat quartermile
victory. His halfmile timing of
2:00.7 was less than a second from
Bobby Ginn's 2:00 record.
Al Zikmund, only recently re
cruited for cinder duty, was the
other top Husker
breezed through a fast 6.4 60 -vn rd
das,h victory, took second Dlace in
the broad jump, and tied for third
spot in the high jump.
Tossing the iron nellet thre
times past the 49-yard mark, Vic
Schleich had things all his own
way in his pet event. Howard
Debus' 46-1 second-dace toss was
his top heave of the campaign.
Fisenhart placed third to give the
Huskers, as anticipated, a sweep
in the shot event.
Other event Ed Weir's suroris-
ing tracksters swept was the high
jump, perienally a Husker weak
event. Doane transfer Dick Pet
ring leaped 6-1 to tie the Wildcat-
Husker duel record. Pat Abbott
tied with Zikmund for second
laurels.
