Three Class A games held the
spotlight in Intramural cage ac
tion at the P.E. courts Wednes

Alpha Tau Omega led the way
with a 25-16 victory over Phi
Gamma Delta. Jack Carroll's six
points and excellent floor play
highlighted the Taus' sixth
straight win.
Delta Sigma Pi all but ruined
Beta Theta Pi's hopes for a play
off berth by scoring an 18-15 up
set. Bob Baum's 11 points led
Phi Kappa Psi to a 32-27 triumph
over Sigma Nu.
MARION SISLEY poured in 14
points to lead the Delta Chi's to
a 21-14 win over Kappa Sigma.
In other A encounters Sigma Chi

the Sigma Phi Epsilon B team
swamp Alpha Sigma Phi, 32-7.
The closest B title of the evening
saw Beta Sigma Psi edge out
Sigma Chi, 22-21.
In Class C action Sigma Alpha
Epsilon dumped Delta Tau Delta,
26-14, and Alpha Tau Omega
scooted past Sigma Phi Epsilon.

Differ Leaves
For Nebraska
With 'Regret9
DURHAM, N. II. Although he
considers himself highly honored
in being named head football
coach at the University" of Ne
braska, J. William "Riff" Class
ford, admitted that he leaves the
University of New Hampshire
with great regret .
As he began packing his football
shoes, track-style sweat pants, old
football jersey and baseball cap
which constitutes his coaching
"uniform," Biff expressed grati
tude all around for "excellent co
operation from many people" dur
inb his three-season coach career
at UNH.
BIFF SAID, "The good record
that Wildcat footbal teams have
had in the past three seasons is
not achieved by any one man, and
I consider myself very fortunate
in having had the help and co
operation of many people at the
University of New Hampshire.
"First, I want the boys who
have played on the Wildcat team
since 194G to know that I appre
ciate very deeply their great
fighting spirit and teamwork.
They have made possible this new
opportunity for me.
"I ALSO OU'E a groat debt of
appreciation to assistant coaches
Ed Stanczyk and Pat Petroski for
a sound job of teaching funda
mentals to the backs and linemen
and for good teamwork in the
coaching staff.
'The good wishes of alumni and
administration of the University
of New Hampshire have helped
to inspire both coaches and the
players to their best efforts.
Every coach needs and appreci
ates that kind of background sup
port. 1 leave UNH with great re
gret." Although a member of the
Yankee conference, University of
New Hampshire football, through
its coaches .have been closely al
lied with the Big Seven of the
Missouri Valley. In 1915, Bill
Cow-ell, an alumus of Kansas, be
came head coach at Durham. He
was succeeded 22 years later by
George Sauer, an alumnus of Ne
braska. Saucr's successor wns
Chick Justice, another Nebraska
graduate. The lend-lease policy
was in vogue when Sauer re
turned to the Big Six to coach
Kansas in 1946, and when Biff
Glassford left UNH this year to
become head coach at Nebraska.

RAY MAGSAMEN.
Magsamen in
Standout Job
Since Service
Ray Magsamen, Albion, Corn
husker football end and hurdler,
is deserving of a full salute.
Ray came out of the service in
1946 weighing around 230 pounds.
He worked daily to get off the
excess weight, and has worked
daily since then to keep it off.
As a result, Ray has been the
Cornhusker sensation of the young
track season. Ray has scored 17
points in two dual meets. He won
the high hurdles and tied for first
and second in the low hurdles
against Iowa State.
In t h e Minnesota-Nebraska
dual, Ray won the low hurdles
and was second in the highs.
"The only thing we fear about
Ray is that he will work him
self into 'staleness,' " Coach Ed
Weir says. "And in this partic
ular era it is mighty unusual
when you worry about a lad
because he is too conscientious."
Cornhusker followers are ex
pecting Magsamen to find himself
on the football field next fall. The
speed that he is developing in
track, they point out, will come
in mighty handy for hira at an
end position. Ray now weighs
191 pounds.

night at the Coliseum as Coach

conference win Noi 4.; Tipoff
time is' 7:30 p. m.
The Buffs will be looking for
their third victory against three
defeats in Big beven piay. -oacn
"Frosty" Cox's crew must win
this one to stay in the running
for the conference title.
In last year's encounter the
Huskers took narrow victories,
both games being decided from
the foul line. Nebraska took a
59-55 game at Boulder, and won
58-53 on the Coliseum maples.
THIS YEAR'S Colorado squad
is featured by underclassmen with
the starting five composed of
juniors and sophomores. The re
cent Colorado surge has been at
tributed to the fiery play of two
sophomore guards, Wayne Tuck
er, al lstater from faoutn rasa
dena, Calif., and Fred Johnson.
Back from last year's starters
are Forwards Kendall Hills and
Bob Rolander and Center Carr
Besemann. Rolander, 6'5, is the
leading scorer on the Colorado
squad this season with 124 points
in 11 games and is the top board
man on the team. He was second
only to Brannum, Michigan State
center, in personal fouls last sea
son, with an average of four per
game.

of single and double screens. They
are probably the hardest driving
team in the league. This may ac
count for the high number of
fouls which they have compiled
thus far in the season.
The startine five will average
6'3 against 6'4 for Nebraska, but
this may be raised if the tower
ing 6'10 Rod Bell is inserted to
replace Besemann at center.
NEBRASKA will probably use
vhe same lineup which has carried
them to three consecutive confer
ence wins. The only questionable
position being the forward spot to
be played by either Dick Srb or
Rod Cox. Srb stood out in bis ini
tial starting roles against Kan
sas State.
The B team meets the freshmen
at 5:45.
Probable starting lineups:
