Led by Al Artman's 18 points
end the outstanding defensive
play of newcomer Al Kirlin, Ne
braska's Comhuskers bopped
Kansas State by a 54-27 count at
the coliseum Tuesday night to
notch their first conference vic
tory of the season.
The KsStaters jumped away to
an early lead, holding a 13-6 mar
gin after nine minutes of play,
but the Scarlet pulled to a 14-14
tie on baskets by Artman, Nelson,
and Hollins and a brace of free
throws by Kirlin. With Artman
and Kirlin leading the way the
Huskers built a 23-16 half-time
margin.
Aggies Rally.
Artman sifted thru the Wildcat
defense for set-ups time and again
as the second period opened, and
the Huskers ran their lead to
40-21 after six minutes had ticked
off. Kansas State began to close
the gap, however, and when the
game ended the Scarlet margin
had shrunk to 54-27 under the
withering rally staged by the Ag-
The two Al's, Artman and Kir
lin, were easily the best for the
Huskers, who showed more scrap
and drive than at any time this
season. Gish led the Wildcat
scorers with 21 markers.

With the start of the second
semester, Coach Ad Lewandowski
is juggling his Comhusker cagers
in hopes of a change of luck. The
victory-starved Huskers have been
bolstered by the addition of Al
Kirlin, ex-Northeast High ace, and
Coach Lewandowski has revamped
his starting line-up to make room
for big Al. Another tall boy, Bert
Gissler, has checked out basket
ball togs and is looming large in
Lew's plans for the rest of the
cage campaign.
Both Kirlin and Gissler shine on
the gridiron as well as the court.
Al was an all-state end last sea
son at Northeast High, and big
Bert, whose 6'7" height bars him
from the armed forces, was a reg
ular Husker wingman in the grid
season just past. Kirlin was also
outstanding as a track and field
performer while at Northeast.
Oklahoma's Sooners and the Cy

may prove to be the most crucial
game of the entire Big Six cage
campaign.. Neither the Sooners

Return of Kratz Ups
Cinder Squad Hopes
Husker track stock took a sud
den rise this week with the word
that Dean Kratz, sole returning
letterman, will not be lost to the
armed forces. Slated for induction.
Dean failed to pass the physical
because of defective vision and
and consequently will be available
for the indoor season.
Kratz, who will run both the
quaiter-mile and the half-mile in
indoor competition, is rounding
into form and has several speedy
quarters to his credit in recent
work-outs, with 53.2 his best re
corded time to date. Third-place

the top teams in the Midwest on
their non-conference schedules.
The game Saturday should be a
real set-to, with both squads real
izing that a victory may well
clinch the conference crown for
them. Sticking my neck out a bit.
I'll pick the Sooners to trim the
boys fiom ISC. (I'm going against
the advice of my best counselor
in this choice Mabel thinks the
Cyclones will win a breeze.)
ODDS AND ENDS: The Major
Harris C. Andrews cited in re
cent press dispatches as head of
phot intelligence at an advance
air base in the South Pacific is
the same Harris Andrews who
played tailback on Husker grid
squads in the late 1930's. An- :

fans as one of the best passers.

tory. The Haukeyes of the University
of Iowa continue to lead the Big
Ten title chase and rank as one
of the top clubs in the nation.
Led by Dave Danner and Dick
Ives, the Hawks edged past In
diana's Hoosiers for a twin vic
tory list week-end. The double
victory ran the Iowans confer-
ships, Kratz is a sure point-getter
for the Scarlet. !
The work of Norval Barker,
frosh hurdler, has brought further
smiles to the face of Coach Ed
Weir. Barker, who has yet to taste
intercollegiate competition, is I
showing exceptionally good form. !
according to Weir. An 8.1 flight i
of 60 yard highs has featured !
Barker's work-outs.
Hollins Shows Promise. j
Lavem Curry, quarter-miler. ,
and Buzz Hollins, who is working
out with the shot-put in addition i
to handling his cage-squad duties,
also show promise, says Weir. With
more grooming, both boys should
develop into point-getters. j
