Competition
That Counts
Lee Moore, Grand Island,
sophomore middle distance run
ner for the Cornhuskers, pos
sesses a zest for competition.
He clung surprisingly close to
the twin terriers of Kansas, Rob
uKrnes and Pat Bowers, in the
mile run of the Big Seven Con
ference championships, Lee was
clocked in 4:19.
In the Oklahoma-Nebraska
Indoor dual meet, Moore was
the victim of a bumping which
knocked him so far off balance
that his willlnf challenge on
the tun lao was wrecked.
Moore was irked to the point
where he did not ask, but de
manded 'hat Coach Ed Weir
double him back in the 880-yard
run. Unaccustomed to the dis
tance, Lee started his kick a bit
too late but managed to kill off
one Okla'loman to finish third
and lose a hair-line decision for
second pit re.

Warriors
BY MUX Ml'NDELL
The Warriors' tenancy in the
Independent playoffs was short
lived us they met and fell before
Sigma Gamma Epsilon Tuesday
night, 31-52. The rampaging Sig
Gams thus racked-up their sev
enth straight victory and ad
vanced to the second round of
the playoffs.
Led by Charles Nunley and
Rig Jack Yelkin, the Sig Cams
never let the game get within
doubt. The Warriors, who earned
the risht to play in the contest
by walloping the Lilies the night
before, played good steady ball
all the way but were hopelessly
outclassed by the geologists.
Nunley's 18 points and Yel
kin's 13 were tops In the tame.
Marv Lawton topped the los
ing scorers, netting 11.
Monday night the Sig Gams
will battle the Ag YMCA in the
second round of the playoffs.
Taus Splurge
Alpha Tau Omega needed a
splurge of points in the second
half of its contest with Sigma
Chi to come out on the long end
of the score. Final reading was
43-30 after a 13-13 halftime
score. The win practically as
sured the ATO's the top spot of
fraternity league I and a berth
in the playoffs.
As usual, Mack Robinson and j
Jack Carroll were the big guns I
of the Tau scoring punch getting
18 and 12 points respectively.
Dunning and Prince of the Chi's
each meshed eight.
Delta Tau Delta .number one
team in the University, i
clinched a playoff berth as
representative of fraternity
league III by crushing Delta
Vpsilon, 49-16. The win was
the tenth straight for the Delts
with no losses.
Topping the winning scoring
attack were Gardner Johnson
and Elmer Vandcl, netting 16 and
-14 markers respectively. Chris
tensen was high for the DU's
with seven.
The top two teams in fratern
ity league II kept the field far
behind them as they, Phi Gamma
Delta and Sigma Nu. chalked up
victories ten and nine respec
tively. The Fljis had a rough time of
It before dropping Beta Sigma
Psi, 34-25 while the Nu's rolled
convincingly over Delta Sigma
Pi, 41-25.

Frosh-Varsity Indoor Meet
Scheduled for March 13, 14
Nebraska varsity trackmen
will meet the Husker freshman
team in an indoor dual meet on
Mondty and Tuesday, March 13
and 14. The meet will start at
5 p. m. on both days.
It will be the final indoor
action for both varsity and
freshman thinclads. Nebraska
won five of six indoor dual meets
during the season and placed
second in the conference indoor
meet at Kansas City last week
end. The freshman are undefeated
in five dual postal meets.
The upperclassmen will be
heavy favorites to cop the annual
event, but can expect trouble
from the freshmen in half-mile,
mile, two-mile, pole vault, shot
put, broad jump and high jump.
Frosh Strong
The frosh could win two indi
vidual events. Glen Beerline has
a broad jump mark of 22-3
which is three inches farther
than any of the varsity jumpers
and Hobe Jones could give vet
eran Harold Kopf a good race in
the half-mile.
Kopf's, best mark is 1:57.0
turned iri at Kansas City. Jones
has been credited with a 1:59.2
but has not been pushed this
season.
Yearling two-milers Bob Kiss
inger and Wayne Judds will be
threats to the varsity field of
Barnell, Aydin and Reese and
could pull en upset in that event.
Both have toured the distance in
under 10:20 this year.

ine mermen from Nebraska
will try to do the almost im
possible when they travel to
Norman, Oklahoma, this week
end in hopes of upsetting the
Iowa State Cyclones for the Big
Seven swimming title.
However, the Iowa State team,
headed by Roger Watts, is not
generally considered to be in
favor of abdicating their throne
this year.
Last Meet
This is the last swimming meet
of the season for the Nebraska
team. Coach Hollie Leplcy stated
that the main weakness in the
team this year has been the lack
of good reserves. He has top
flight men in some events but
he doesn't have the inter squad
competition that is necessary for
a successful team.
Kddle t'aren is the only Ne
braskan who was able to score
a first place in the conference
meet last year. He copped first
in the high board diving. Cra
ren has been a main point get
ter for the Huskers this year
and he stands a good chance
of retaining his individual
championship.
Marvin Grimm will end four
years of competition for Ne
braska in this meet. He won the

Manl.avvan Meet
By Bob Banks
(Stafr Snorts Wrlti-r)
The Cornhusker wrestling team wil close the current
season when they place their Big Seven crown on the line
this week end at Manhattan.
Oklahoma is favored to replace Nebraska as the
conference champions. The Sooners defeated the Patter
son squad in a dual meet earlier
in the season. Their squad has
shown definite improvement over
last year's team.
If the Nebraska grapplcrs are
at their peak then the possibili
ties of another championship for
them are not entirely impossible
according to Coach Patterson.
The Cornhuskers have had a
rugged schedule this year and
have had dual meets with the
three top teams in the nation.
The squad has been hampered
by the loss of key men during
the whole season. In view of all
these things the Nebraska squad
is actually better than their
record may indicate.
Psysically Patterson's squad
will be in good shape for the
meet. The only casualty is Louis
Canaglia. He will be badly
missed though in the 121 pound
division.
THREE CHAMPS
Three defending champions
will spearhead the Nebraska at
tack. They are heavyweight
Mike DeBiasc. Herb Reese in the
175 pound division, and Mick
Sparano in the 136 pound di
vision. DiBiase will terminate his
athletic career for Nebraska in
this conference meet. He has
been heavyweight king three
times. Joe Blanchard, Kansas
State heavyweight, defeated
Mike this year for his only con
ference loss. DiBiase hopes to
amend this decision down at
Manhattan.
Another cog in the Patterson
strategy will be 175 pounder
Herb Reese. Glen Brand of
Iowa State defeated Rees this
year but he is injured and will
not compete this year. Reese is
the only wrestler this year to
have gained a decision over an
Oklahoma A Sc M wrestler.
Mickey Sparano is the sec
ond senior who will be wrest
ling his last match for the
Scarlet and Cream. He has
been beaten once this year In
competition but is counted on

NU Gymnasts Face Mlinois
In Lasv Meev of Season
By Ira Epstein
Htaff Sport. Writer '
As the Nebraska gymnastics
team closes its season against the
University of Illinois this Satur
day, Husker fans will get a
chance to see gymnast Leo Geier
work for the last time with the
team. The meet will take place
in the Coliseum, beginning at
2:00.
In the four years that Leo has
worked with the squad, he has
participated in over sixty-eight
meets, working the side horse,
flying rings, parallel bars, tumbl
ing, long horse, and trampoline.
The long horse was used during
the Olympic meets.
Always Placed
Not only has he pluced in every
meet, but he has never failed to
gain a place in an individual '
event, winning numerous first
places during the four year pe
riod. When asked how many place
ment points he has garnered in
the four year span. Coach Jake
Geier commented it would take
hours to add them up.
At the beginning of the 1949
50 season, Leo's team members
elected him to be captain for the
year. He is also the only gymnast
to hold varsity letters for foJr
years. With the current eligibil
ity rule, freshmen aren't eligible
to compete in their first year.
Although the loss of Geier will
weaken the team considerably
next year, Coach Geier has one
happy vision to look forward to.
Leo is the only senior on the
squad, and Coach Geier is ex
pecting to have at least two fresh
men to step in and fill Leo's
shoes.
