Harold Bokcr
Paces Matmcn
With 11 Points
Harold Boker, former Omaha
Central grappler, leads Coach
Jerry Adam's wrestlers in points
scored, with 11 tallies, the result
of one fall and two decisions over
wrestlers from Iowa Teachers,
Iowa University and Iowa State.
Wrestling in the heavyweight
and 175 pound classes, Boker has
been unbeaten in his three starts
since joining the squad at the be
ginning of the second semester.
In his most recent victory,
Boker decisioned Ron Hudgin of
Iowa State in a 175 pound battle.
The Cyclone had been undefeated
prior to his match with Boker
and was the leading scorer on the
Iowa State team.
Mickey Kelly, scrappy 121
pound matman and Newt Copple,
veteran 155 pound performer, are
next in the scoring totals with
nine points apiece.
Ed Copple has six points, while
Jack Tamai and Burl Selden
have each collected five. The
Husker squad has been unable to
win in six starts, but this year's
team has faced some of the best
teams in the nation, 'including
Iowa Teachers, Indiana, Iowa
State and Iowa University, and
prospects for future successes in
the mat sport are rosy.
Demolition Boys
Win Navy Play;
Bieterman Stars
Sparked by Bieerman's 24 points,
the Demolition Boys easily dis
posed of Kane's Killers in the
finals of the Navy basketball
tournament Tuesday night. Bieter
man, probably one of the finest
basketball men on the intramural
courts, has been a gold mine of
points for the Demo Boys all sea
son, and he and his teammates
had things well in hand Tuesday.
The new Navy champs are now
slated to meet the top indepen
dent and the top fraternity team
to come out of the present play
offs in a three-way tourney to de
termine the all-university cham
pions. In the consolation matches, the
Hot Shots forfeited third place to
Wood's Wildcats; and the Flying
Frenchmen and the Filthy Five,
victors in Tuesday's games, meet
Thursday night to decide fifth
place.

We see from press releases dis
tributed by the Universities of
Oklahoma and Minnesota, that the
University of Nebraska baseball
team will be in action against
these schools. No word of the
Husker schedule has been released
by the Athletic Department, but
the Minnesota bulletin tells us that
the Nebraska team will open the
Gophers' season with a pair of
games at Minneapolis on April 12
and 13.
Nebraska baseball coach Frank
Smagaci Is awaiting word from
one or two schools before the com
plete Husker schedule can be re
leased, but indications point to
plenty of competition for the Scar
let nine this spring.
Several former squadmen are
back on the campus, including
Dean Jackson, Ray Sedlack and

Frank Rubino, all of whom played
for Nebraska before the sport
ceased during the war years.
The triangular track meet Sat
urday night involving Nebraska,
Kansas and Kansas State, will
have numerous complications. In
addition to being a three-way
meet, the competition will be on
a dual meet basis between Kansas
and Kansas State, between Ne
braska and Kansas, and between
Nebraska and Kansas State.
It may be far into the night
before the final scores are tabu
lated to determine winners of
these four different rivalries.
On the same note, the speedup
schedule in effect at the Husker
meets works In fine style, until
the broad jump comes up. At this
point the proceedings bog down

PAIRED WITH INIMITABLE VOGUE DESIGNS
Hoffman has turned to California's Kaleidoscopic palette
. . brought forth a medley of colors worthy of an artist's
brush . . . blended them skillfully with cloud-soft
woolens . , . and achieved a triumph of color-coordination.
For your own harmony of fashion and fabric, choose a
Hoffman trio: a beautifully mellow plaid or check with its own
matching color twosome ... and a masterly Vogue Design.

and the competition of the meet
is held up until the jumpers fin
ish their activity.
If this could be remedied, Ne
braska track fans could be out
of the east stadium oval after
cheering the Husker performers,
and still have a good bit of the
evening left.
"It's an angry Iowa State Col
lege track squad that is working
out for its final tuneup before the
Big Six meet in Kansas City
March 2. The Cyclones, Big Six
indoor champions for the past two
years, in some cases are down
right mad."
"Nebraska may win, the Cy
clones admit, but they'll have to
be doing it at Kansas City, not
at Lincoln nor in the newspapers.
The silent, almost surly squad
refuses to admit the Huskers are
good enough to push off the throne
they've occupied for the 1944 and
1945 seasons."
Those words come from the
Iowa State sports service.
Ed Weir's boys should be
ashamed of themselves for making
the Cyclones angry.
Alan Ladd, star of Paramount's
"The Blue Dahlia," was a sprint
er and shot puter at North Hol
lywood high school and still holds
the 50 yard free style swim record.
