Fresh from their 54-47 con
quest of Kansas State Tuesday
night, Nebraska's Comhuskers
drove through hard practice ses
sions Wednesday and Thursday in
preparation for their tussle with
Missouri Saturday night at the
Coliseum.
Victory over the Wildcats
boosted the Huskers' morale, and
A. . - a m . ...
we squaa snowea new spirit as
they prepared for the Missourians.
Coach Ad Lewandowski stressed
defense as he pushed his players
inru long scrimmage sessions both
Wednesday and Thursday.
Lew expects the Tigers to be a
rough foe. The Missourians, doped
to finish in the second division,
have knocked off the Kansas Jay
hawks in conference competition
ana nave a good chance to grab a
first division berth in the final
conference standings.
Lew Pleased.
Lew was highly pleased with
the performance of the Scarlet
against the K-Staters. The out
standing defensive play of Al Kir
lin, newcomer from Northeast
High, and the point-getting of Al
Artman, Kearney veteran who
cored eighteen points, were espe
cially pleasing to Lewandowski.
Kirlin, playing his first college
game, was working exceptionally
well under the basket and gave a
boost to the Husker offense by
pouring in eleven markers. Art
man was looking the best he has
this season, breaking up play after
play with his ball-hawking and
getting behind the Wildcat de
fense for frequent set-ups.
Their win over the Wildcats
boosted the Huskers from the con
ference cellar, left the K-Staters
in sole possession of that lowly
spot.

Weir Issues Call "
For Candidates
With the opening of the indoor
season less than three weeks away,
Track Coach Ed Weir has issued
another call for candidates. Weir
reports that the cinder squad must
have several more sure point
getters if the Huskers are to make
a creditable showing in coming
competition.
"Now that finals are over and
the new semester has started,"
said Ed, "I'm hoping for a new
crop of men. We "are badly in
need of new boys to help Kratz,
Barker and the other point
makers we now have."
Reaching my ears often of late
is the suggestion that an all-star
team, composed of the top play
ers from the various Army intra
mural squads on the campus, meet
the Lincoln Air Base Raiders in a
clash at the Coliseum. The Raid
ers have been decisively defeating
the best teams that each indi
vidual military unit on the campus
can offer, hence the proposal that
the individual units pool their
players and throw an all-star team
against the powerful Raiders.
The suggestion seems to me
to be very logical, for under the
present set-up the Raiders can
assemble their team from the
entire personnel at the Air Base,
while any campus military team
that faces them uses men from
only a single unit. If such stars
as Scheer and Fuller of Com
pany B, Dobrer, Lind, and Bot
torf of Company C, and Harris
of the Air Corps training de
tachment were assembled on an
all-star team, they could give
"Goose" Tatum and his Air Base
mates a real battle.
Because of its obvious merit
such a proposal meets with this
department's hearty approval. I
hope to see an all-star Army team
from this campus clashing with
the Raiders sometime before the
season ends. (Mabel is all-out for
the idea, too, so I don't see how
it can miss.) 1
Coach Lewandowski's Husk
er cagers were employing the
fast-break to excellent advan
tage against Kansas State at
the Coliseum Tuesday night.
The Huskers abandoned their
customary deliberate, slow mov
ing attack midway in the first
half and came from a 6-13
deficit to a 23-16 margin at half
time. The Scarlet continued to
pour on the speed during the
second half and built a 46-22
margin before the Aggies staged
their fierce rally in the closing,
minutes.
In the two intramural games
played Wednesday night, the
A.T.O. team won over the Sig
Cms, 26-17, while the Betas
trounced the Brown Palace, 26-11
A.T.O.-Sig Chi.
In the first game of the eve
ning the ATOs took the lead in
the fivst half amd held it all
through the game. Their scoring
centered around Nicola who made
eight points. The Sig Chi's points
were divided evenly among their
five men. The score at the half
stood ATO 17, Sig Chi 7. The fi
nal score found the ATO team in
the lead, 26 to 17.
