According to advance notices,
Coach Marry Good's basketball
team is not expected to set the
world on fire this year. The
Husker cagers w ill be pushing for
second or third place, however.
Early predictions give the Okla
homa Sooners the edge on paper
with Missouri or Kansas State
giving them a hard time. Good
says that, on the basis of return
ing personnel, the Sooners should
be given the nod.
Good to Develop Ball Handling
The basketball tutor believes
his greatest problem will be de
veloping a good ball handler. He
will probably form the nucleus
of his team around Bob Cerv, Rod
Cox, Claude Retherford, Bus
Whitehead, Dick Schleif rr, Dick
Srb, Panl Shields, Henry Cech
and Anton Lawry.
Biggest question mark will be
sophomores Bob Gates, Bob Male
eek, Bob Pierce and Jim Walsh.
How they perform under fire will
have much to do with the team's
chances.
The Huskers will get their first
look at conference competition
Dec. 27, when the Bg Seven be
gins its annual tourney in Kan
sas City. Nebraska plays Kan
sas State in the first round of
the double elimination" tourna
ment. The eighth team in the
tournament will be Harvard Uni
versity which will open against :
Iowa State.
Huskers to Play Sooners Saturday
Turning from basketball to foot
ball, it looks like Nebraska's
Cornhuskers are in for a long
afternoon when they play Coach
Bud Wilkinson's Sooners at Nor
man next Saturday. The Okies
are fresh from what some of the
experts term an upset victory
over Missouri, and they will not
likely take any chances.
Coach Potsy Clark mav have a at 102 Physical Education Build
few tricks up his sleeve by gamejjng. Pairings for the matches will
nine aim ine nusKers who re
gained some confidence last Sat
urday may do the unexpected.
Oklahoma has never been too
strong against Nebraska, having
won only eight out of 27 games.
We doubt if the score will be to
high regardless of which team
wins.

Couch Potsy Clark sent the
Husker varsity through pass drills
in Tuesday's practice session and
then finished up with running

stormy conditions.

Problem : To hold down costs, and speed the
extension of telephone service.
Solution: Hi&h-strength wire whose use allows
the span between poles to be in
creased from 150 feet to more than
300. One pole now does the work
of two.
The problem, of course, is a continuing one
for telephone people. High-strength wire
with required electrical qualities is only one
of many things they have developed to help
solve the problem in these days of high con
struction costs.
In total, their developments are the reason
why telephone service here is the best in
the world the reason why a telephone call
costs only a few pennies.
