with a game Monday night at
Iowa City against the always po
tent Hawkeyes, alter the Huskers
play twice at Kansas City m the
pre-season Big Six tournament.
Tonight the Nebraskans meet
the University of Missouri in one
of the two games scheduled in the
spacious Kansas City auditorium,
site of the Western NCAA finals,
as well as a special holiday tour
nament this year.
In the other game tonight
Kansas university tackles the
Kansas State Wildcats. Saturday
the winners will tangle for the
championship while losers will
battle for consolation honors.
On the basis of performances
thus far, the Jayhawkers of Phog
Allen must be favored. Although
their scoring machine has failed
to function at top efficiency yet,
the Kansans, with Charley Black
back in Red and Blue liveries, and
big Art Peterson on hand, appear
to have a definite edge over the
other three teams.
However, the season has not
advanced far enough to enable
observers to get a definite picture
of the strength of the other three
squads.
Nebraska has turned in two
mediocre performances in their
only starts to date. Tuesday's!

victory over South Dakota was
marred by sloppy passing and
slipshod basket shooting. Both
of these troubles cleared up as the
second half progressed, and at
times the Huskers showed flashes
of real ability.
With plenty of tall men on
hand, Coach Klein has the task
of molding five men into a
smooth working unit, and he has
been giving all varsity members
a chance to show their wares in
the two games the Huskers have
played.
Don Barry's actions against the
Coyotes showed that the Norfolk
tall boy knows his way around a
basketball floor and when his
basket eye is right he is a diffi
cult man to stop.
With a few more fames on tap
before conference play begins,
the green Iluskers should pick up
that much needed experience nec
essary to a winning ball team.
Big Six foes will find the Scarlet
a tough customer when basketball
action begins in earnest.
The Huskers make their next
home appearance against Doug
Mills' Illinois five on December
20, and the brand of ball displayed
by the Illini should bring the fans
out in goodly numbers.
Les Livingston's Nubbins five
will open action on the 20th with
ft preliminary game against the
Kearney Army Air Base quintet
33rd and Starr. Special music has
also been planned.
Jewish students are invited to
the services Friday evening at
8:00 at either the Jewish House at
18th and L or the House at 20th
and South. A special meeting of
the student Hillel foundation will
be held next week. Dr. Samuel
Strong of the university sociology
department will address the group.
The "Roger William Fellowship"
of the First Baptist church will
meet for a lunch and program at
6:30 Sunday evening. The Baptist
Youth Fellowship will also meet
at 6:30.
Sunday morning services at the
Plymouth Congregational church
will start at 11:00. The evening
program includes a carillon recital
by Mary Guest at 7:00, followed
by a cantata by the carillon choir
at 7:30. Open house and a social
hour "at home in the church" will
be held at 8:30. Refreshments will
be served.
The United Brethern church
will hold a Christmas vesper serv
ice 4:00 p. m. Sunday. Discussion
groups will meet at 4:45. Morning
services will begin at 10:45.
Play
(Continued from Page 1.)
Mary Paulson portrayed very
well the sharp-tongued Juno, and
she achieved the typical dialect of
an Irish woman. Her speech was
rapid, however, and at times some
of the better lines of her part
were missed.
Janet Johnson, who played
Mary Boyle, failed to make her
self heard at all times, but her
characterization of the girl with
the lost love was well handled.
Richard Ingwerson, as Johnnie
Boyle, during the play remained
the neurotic, superstitious son, yet
his interpretation could have been
heavier. In the role of M a i s i e
Madigan, Gloria Beaumont held
her part well. Her unstable hair
do in the second act, though not
intended, added considerably to
her characterization.
The climax of dramatic acting
of the tragedy was the appear-
THE NEBRASKAN
Cyclones Lead
Big Six Teams
in Point Score
A compilation of football scor
ing totals of Big Six schools
shows that the third place Iowa
State Cyclones led all member
schools in points per game av
erages.
The Ames eleven was good for
an average total of 19.5 points
per game in their eight gridiron
encounters this season. Second in
the overall season averages was
Oklahoma with an average of
16.9 points per game during a
ten game schedule.
Strangely enough, Nebraska
was third in the overall seaso i
scoring averages with an average
of 16.1 points per game for nine
games. Most of the credit for this
total roes ta the University of
South Dakota, for the Coyotes
played dead and the II u s k e r s
amassed 53 points one Saturday
afternoon.
Things were different on the
defensive side, for Kansas State
and the Huskers were the weak
sisters of the conference when it
came to keeping the opposition
from scoring. Against the Wild
cats, 33.3 points for the opposing
team was the average, while the
Huskers allowed 22.2 points per
ance of Mrs. Tancred, played by
Dorthea Duxbury, who mourned
over her dead son. This scene
displayed professional technique
on the pait of Miss Duxbury and
other members of the cast.
Supporting aCst.
The supporting cast, including
Robert Baum as Jerry Devine,
Lawrence Gilling as Charlie Ben-
tham, and Van Westover as
Needle" Nungent, carried their
parts well, and kept within the
general spirit of the play. Bit
parts were handled by James
Frans, Bernard Suits, Maurice
Johnson, Die O'Meary, Richard
Freethy; and John Kormos.
Compliments are due to the
production crews for their ex
cellent jobs. Especially effective
were costumes, makeup, and
stage sets.

Much cf the Nebraska total Is
due to the second and third games
of the season when Minnesota and
Indiana both topped the half
hundred mark.
It was Iowa State that led in
the defensive division too, for the
Cyclones allowed their opponents
an average score of 12.1 points
per game. Another honor for the
Iowa defensive play is the fact
that the 18 points scored by
