If Nebraska fans are worried
about getting into the coliseum to
see Harry Good's 1946-47 edition
of the Nebraska basketball team
in action they ought to stop and
consider the plight of the Illinois
fans.
Due to an overwhelming en
rollment and a limited seating ca
parity at llurr gymnasium, whf?i
seats 7,600, only students will be
admit'd to Illini games except for
the tilt with Nebraska at Cham
paign on Dec. 28. For that game
the general public will be admit
ted, since Christmas vacation will
be under way and the campus will
be less populated.
Even with such restrictions stu
dents will not be able to attend
all of the games, for they have
been divided into two groups, the
"Orange" and the "Blue." and will
attend alternate home games.
The Husker team when they
play at Champaign will be on
their way to Kentucky for clashes
with Louisville and Western Ken
tucky Teachers on Dec. 30 and 31.
Who knows where the Iowa
State two-milers will finish dur
ing the conference race?
The Ames runners may surprise
if what one of their number ac
complished last week is any in
dication. During a cross country race
against Drake's rational cham
pions Cyclone Larry Inman felt
his shoestring break. He paused
to mend it and still turned in a
better time than he has managed
all season.
The Iowa State band will be on
hand at Memorial stadium Satur
day to provide support for Mike
Michalske's gridders when the
Cyclones tangle with Bernie's
Huskers.
It will be the third time that
an opponent's band had been On
hand with the Nebraska band, for
the Missouri organization made
the trip to Lincoln and the Scar
let and Cream musicians were in
Lawrence when Nebraska edged
me Jayhawks. Each time two
bands have been together the Ne
braska group has been definitely
superior a record which the foot
ball team will attempt to duplicate.
Nebraska's two-mile team is not
doing badly when you consider
that of the five runners two are
not distance experts on the basis
of previous competition.
Jim Martin. Omaha freshman.
was the state 880 champ last year,
and is a new hand at the two
mile distance, while Harold Konf
of Lexington won high school hon
ors in the 440, Along with Bobby
Ginn, Don Morrison and Phil My
ers, these novices will carry the
Husker hopes in the conference
meet at Norman Saturday.

Five runners have been selec
ted by Coach Ed Weir to carry
Nebraska's colors in the Big Six
two mile race at Norman, Okla
homa, Saturday.
Heading the list of two-miles
is Bobby Ginn, pre-war Husker
great, who has dropped only one
race this season, and who figures
as one of the top contenders for
individual honors in the meet.
The other members of the team
are Don Morrison, only recently
returned from the service, Jim
Martin, freshman distance run
ner from Omaha Benson, Phil
Meyers, and Harold Kopf.
Ginn has been troubled by a
bad cold this past week, but as
yet it has not hampered his run
ning. Don Morrison has been im
proving consistently since his re
turn to school and should be in
top form this week-end.
Biggest improvement in the
meet against Kansas State last
week wai the running of Martin.
His performance against the Wild
cats enabled him to finish in
fourth place and also netted him a
position on the squad going to
Norman.
KU Upsets Oklahoma.
On a muddy and sloppy track
last week, the Kansas Jayhawkcrs
upset favored Oklahoma by the
score of 25-30. Earl Jones of K.U.
finished in first place, followed
by Hal More, also of Kansas, who

is counted on to give Ginn

Coach Weir feels that the lack
of experience among the Husker
track men may keep them from
walking off with top honors, but
with Ginn and Morrison showing
the way Nebraska should be in
the thick of the fight.
