A Cyclone, bent on revenge,
will storm into Huskerland Sat
urday night.
Chick Sutherland will bring
his Iowa State basketballers to
the University of Nebraska coli
seum for an important Big Seven
tilt.
The top spot in the confer
ence race will be awarded the
winner of the contest when the
final gun ends hostilities. Both
teams have won their loup open
ers and are undefeated in Big
Seven warfare.
Reports from the Cyclone
campus are that the Ames boys,
a victim of a Nebraska 19 point
overtime scoring spree at Kan
sas City, have been thinking of
nothing but winning the Husker
tussle.
Sutherland's crew, no doubt, ;
lost a few knots speed when they i
gathered the facts of the Nebraska-Kansas
game.
HUSKERS REVIVE
The . Huskers completely vindi
cated themselves for past perform
ances Tuesday night, downing a
stubborn Jayhawk five 57-56. It
was a different ball club that met
and defeated Kansas. It was a
team that wanted to win.
Sparked by the uncanny eye of
Bus Whitehead, the Cornhuskers
strutted like a championship squad
for the first time this year. If
Harry Good can keep his team
rolling in the future like they
rolled Tuesday, the Huskers won't
have to settle for a co-championship
this year.
Getting the nod to stop Husker
Whitehead is Sonny Wilhelmi,
who is 6'5" tall. Since Bus wasn't
bothered in the least by his op
ponent of equal stature Lovellette,
Kansas center, Wilhelmi will
probably be in for a long evening.
Completing the starting quintet
for Iowa State will be forward
Gay Anderson, 6'4". and Guard
Dudley Ruisch, 6'4".
Whitehead, Nebraska's 6 foot 9
Inch high scoring center, jumped
his total to 191 points for 12 games
to lead all Cornhusker scorers.
The Scottsbluff senior, who
whipped in 20 points against Kan
sas Tuesday, hoisted his average
to 15.9 points per game. Whitehead
has connected on 42 percent of his
field goal tries (74 of 173) and 71
percent of his free throws (43 of
60).
Whitehead, an All-Conference
center last year", is 57 points ahead
of Claude Retherford's record
breaking 311 points for 26 games
pet in 1948-1949.
Including the Kansas game, the
1949-'50 team is averaging 61.6
counters per contest.
