Missouri Looms As
Cornhusker Threat
By Don Bryant
Nebraska's Cornhuskers will
make another attempt Monday
niKht, to further their string of
home victories.
The intended victims are the
Timers from Missouri, winners of
the pre-seasoii Eig Seven Tour
ney. Since the tourney, Sparky Stul
rup's new has failed to live up
to advanced expectations. Losers
1 three straight conference tests.
T..c iigers are currently resting
nt the bottom of the Big Seven
heap.
Nebraska will be in much the
same position Monday as they
were when they dumix-d K-State.
Saturday night the Misouri team
tangles with Colorado, always
touuh on their home floor.
K-State handled the Buffs with
little difficulty and the Wildcat
rooters arrived in Lincoln ex
pecting much the same results.
Evidently, the Colorado contest,
coupled with a two week lay-off
by the Huskers was too much for
the 'Cats. The same thing may
happen to the Tigers.
Tigers Dangerous
One Uiing is definite, the
Tigers are a capable ball club.
As Harry Good stressed, they
may surprise at any time, being
dangerous on the road and at
home.
Last year the Tigers ventured
on the same journey. Thry edged
Colorado 49-48 and headed east
for Huskerland.
Nebraska provided the Tigers
and the fans with one of the most
exciting finishes of the season.
With four seconds remaining in
the game and Missouri leading
4(5-45. Husker Dick Srb stole the
ba'l from a napping Tiger and
raced the length of the floor for
winnina tally.
The jinx odds favor the Husk
ers. uniy uvo teams m uu- ii
two seasons, Oklahoma and Min
nesota, have topped the Corn
huskers on the coliseum floor.
Ten teams have fallen victims
to the Nebraska home lloor this
year.
In an effort to meet all proba
bilities, Stalcup has juggled his
starting combination, viewing all
possibilities for a winning crew.
Fowler Absent
Absent from the probable
starting lineups on the northern
junket are Jerry Fowler, 6-6 cen
ter, and George Lafferty, spark
plug of early Tiger victories.
Stalcup plans to start duu
ineman and Bill Stauffer. for
wards. Don Stroot at the pivot
and Dan Witt and Ken Shockley
in the backcourt.
Harry Good may have to do a
li'tle juggling himself. Joe Mala
crk is suffering from a knee in
jury and may not be ready for
tei vice. In the event that Mala
t ck is not able to play. Good will
probably put sophomore Norm
Wilncs at the lorwnrd slot.
Kegular starters. Anton Lawry,
Jim Buchanan, Milt Whitehead
and Bob Cerv will round out the
Husker starting five.
New Thigh Pads.
An addition to the Scarlet and
Cyclone Frosli
Trackmen Good
Iowa State's freshman track
team won an indoor postal meet
from Oklahoma last week by
the score of Wi; to 37z-j. The
Cyclone yeanings slammed three
events, the 35-yard dash. 440
yard dash and the shot put.
Top marks were turned in by
liobcrtson of Iowa State in the
Flint, Bigbee of Iowa State in the
441 and McCormack of Oklahoma

NU Record
With 243 points already writ
ten into the book, Nebraska's Milt
(Bus) Whitehead is almost cer
tain to establish a new Corn
husker individual scoring record
before the 24-game schedule 'is
completed.
Whitehead has his eyes focused
on Claude Retherford' all-time
mark of 311 points. Retherford,
the Hoosier hotshot who dazzled
fans the past three years with
his one-hand shooting, needed 26
games to set the record last sea
son. Leading in nearly every de
partment of the game where fig
ures are kept, the Scottsbluff
senior is clipping along at a 16.2.
Wilnet Hith
Norman Wilnes, sophomore
from Sidney, has the highest field
goal percentage, connecting on
45 per cent of his attempts, while
Bob Gates, Omaha, has missed
only two of 20 free throws for
a torrid 90 per cent average.

py Iowa State and Minnesota,
end as they copped two victories, beating Colorado a&m.
by 47 to 36 and trouncing Colorado State 60 to 24. Coach

events, as Husker ace
Marv i
Grimm has been confined to the
sidelines with a cast on his leg.
Kanamine Wins.
Ted Kanamine, fast improving
junior who is right at Grimm's
heels, made up for The Husker
star's absence as he stroked his
way to a :54.6 100-yard freestyle
in the relay. This time is only
a little over a second behind
Grimm's Nebraska record of
:53.1.

timing.

wards of Colorado State picked

j enth on this event in the Nation
al AAU meet, took the leading
position. Nebraska's Art Hillman
garnered a second spot, and
Stebbins of Colorado rounded
out the third position.
As the day grew longer the
Huskers got warmer. In the
tumbling and trampoline events,
the Nebraska muscle men took
the first three places. Swimmer
Ed Craren lived up to expecta
tions by grabbing first on the
trampoline.
Large Margin.
Although winning by a large
margin. Coach Jake Geier had
the following comment, "We
were very slow getting started
on the first event, and this week
our team is going to settle down
to work, and I mean plenty of
it."
Next week, the Nebraska gym
nasts will tackle a tough Colora
do University squad in the Phys
ical Education building.
