The whole thing started back
in 1902 when the gentlemen in
charge of the Tournament of
Roses, at Pasadena, decided to
throw in a football game as an '
added attraction to the Rose tour- j
nament.
That year Michigan pinned a .
rose on Stanford to win. 49-0, and I
start a long string of Rose Bowl
games. j
Then followed some young up-
starts in 19Z5, including the East

Basket Rules
Get New Look
A novelty at Wednesday night's
cage encounter between the Husk
ers and Northwest Missouri was
the new ruling enabling players to
converse with their coaches dur
ing timeouts.
With the basketball season
swinging into high gear next week,
it seems that a review of the 1948
49 rule changes is in order.
The most noticeable of these
changes is the one concerning
timeouts. It states "During any
timeout, official or one called by
either team, the competing teams
are allowed to huddle on the side
lines next to their respective
benches and receive instructions
from their coach." This ruling
should eliminate needless substi
tuting for the purpose of sending
in instructions from the bench.
Another change governs sub
stitutes entering the game. They
are no longer required to report to
the referees upon entering the
game. They must, however, report
to the scorer's table and be beck
oned onto the floor by one of the
officials while the ball is dead.
A ruling stating that "all jump
balls must take place in the cen
ter of the nearest of the three re
straining circles," is the third ma
jor change. This will open up the
game and the jumps which are
crowded against the sidelines will
be eliminated. The ruling will be
an asset to coaches using tipoff
plays as the tips will be held in
uniform points on the floor.
Nebraska university's basket
ball team take on the cagers of
Minnesota in the coliseum Mon
day night at 7:30 p. m.
The Gopher team is playing its
first season under the direction
of Coach Osborne "Ozzie" Cowles.

ball, both at Dartmouth and
Michigan.

IM Wrestling
Starts Tuesday
Intramural wrestling will begin
Tuesday December 7, with
matches daily through December
10. All-university finals will be
held during the half of the basket
ball game between the Husker
and Iowa State .
Pairings in each weight division
will be posted Monday, December
6. All grapplers planning to com
pete must report for first round
matches in the Coliseum basement
at 7:00 p.m. Monday.
Competitors need not represent
organiaztions, but may compete
on their own. Organizations wish
ing to compete as teams were to
have their entries filed by Decem
ber 1. Over 180 entries have been
fild, with the majority of these
coming from the 14 fraternity en
vries. Winners of each individual
new to collegiate competition.
They are Tom Bcrgstedt and
Meyer Skoog.
Other starters for the Monday
tilt are Jim Mclntyre, finishing
up three outstanding years in the
center slot and an All-American
and Wally Salovich and Harold
Olson.
Win Openers
Both teams won openers with
the Minnesota squad whipping
Western Illinois State college and
Nebraska outscoring Missouri
State Teachers college 59-39.
Last year the Minnesotans beat
the Huskers 63-59 after Nebraska
scored 18 points in the last few
minutes of play to come within
one point of the Gophers.
Coach Harry Good's five will
vie for their second win against
a Gopher team which does not
appear too strong.
Mclntyre Problem
Main problem for the Huskers
will be guarding big Jim Mc
lntyre, Minnesota's All-American
center. The 6-9 'i center has been
the bright spot on the Gopher
team for three years.
Good's starting five will prob
ably see the same five that
started against Missouri State
Teachers.
This means Claude Retherford
and Joe Malacek will be starting
forwards and Bus Whitehead will
be at center. Bob Cerv and Henry
Cech will be at guard positions.
