For S
Mouring the loss of Claude
Retherford, Coach Harry Good
prepares for the 1949-50 Corn
husker basketball opener Satur
day against South Dakota State.
Setting Nebraska scoring rec
ords for three years straight.
Retherford will definitely be
missed in the Huskcr camp this
year.
The big question for Good this
season is whether or not he can
.find a suitable replacement for
Retherford. The Nebraska scoring
machine, although spotted with
lcttermen. has no dependable
scorers as yet.
On the first five are Tony
Lawry and Joe Malecck, for
wards; Bus Whitehead, center,
and Bob Gates and Larry Walsh,
guards.
Joe Brown, Lawry and White
head, all three veterans for Ihc
Cornhuskers, will try to set up
a team play which might add the
necessary fuel for the Huskcr
scoring machine.
Replacements for the first five
include Bob Pierce, six-foot, six
and one-half inch center from
Lincoln; Bob Ccrv, veteran guard
who has been bothered by a trick
knee this fall, and Brown, who
is back after a year's layoff.
This season Good is planning
on using a deliberate set-style of
play, since his "run 'em into the
boards" stvlc of play is being
slowly pushed out of th basket
ball world.
