THE NEBRASKAN
Kansas State
Nips Scarlet
In Overtime
Huskers Fall
In Rough Tilt
Nebraska capers fell upset vic
tims to Kansas State Tuesday
right in a loosely played, overtime
game which ended the Huskers'
season.
Coach Cliff Rock's Wildcats,
down 19-14 at the half, slowly
elosed the margin in the second
half, tying the Huskers 36-all at
the end of regulation time on Bob
Kkblad's free throw. In the over
time, Ken Hollins' free throw was
all the Huskers could garner,
while Kkhlad and Vance scored
two free throws apiece to five
the K-Staters their 40-37 margin.
The game was rough, with 47
fouls called, and nine men leaving
on personals. Student Manager
Bert Gissler and freshman Les
Krogh, who had seen no previous
service this season, were pressed
into action by Husker Coach Ad
Lewsndowski when five of his men
were hoisted on fouls.
The Wildcat victory dropped
Nebraska to the conference cellar
with a 1-9 won and 1 st record
and upped Kansas Stat" to fifth
on the strength of their 1-8 loop
record.

Perhaps it's for the best that Nebraska's clash with Kan
sas State at Manhattan Tuesday was the end of this season's
basketball trail for the Huskers for the V. X. cage roster was
down to eiffht men for the season's final game. Coach Ad Lt
wandowski started the year with some twenty-odd men. but
against the Aggies Tuesday Lew was scraping the bottom of
the manpower barrel to put a loam on lhe floor.
To complicate matters further, Tuesday night's clash wau
unusually rough, and several of Lew's boys were ousted on
personal fouls before the final whistle. Lewandowslri met the
situation, however, by drafting long Bert Gissler, the team's
student manager, and pressing into service Les Krogh, fresh
man squad member who had never before tasted collegiate
competition.
Lewandowski deserves nothing but praise for the way in
which he has held bis green squad of youngsters together
throughout the season. Service rails and ineligibility look some
of the boys on whom he had counted most when the season
started, but Lew never lost his optimism and enthusiasm, even

All in all, the Husker cage season cannot be counted a
failure, despite the number of defeats which mark the year's

Cornhusker athletic tradition alive, ready for a real revival
