THE DAILY NEBRASKA!
Four Lettermen Bolster
Coach Geier's Gym Team
by John Sinclair .
8tf f Sporti Writer
Rounding out head gymnastics
coach J. G. "Jake" Geier's 1950
gym team will be four returning
lettermen and a top notch jun
ior college transfer.
The lour returning musclemen
are Al Dunavan, Art. Hillman,
Paul Hughes and Bob Yarwood.
Al Dunavan is a three year
letterman and captain of this
year's squad. Al has been out
standing during his college ca
reer at Nebraska and shows
great versatility by working all
six events.
Another letter winner and con
sistent high point man is Art
Hillman, a senior whose special
ties are the side horse and the
high bar.
Versatile junior Paul Hughes
is competing in five events this
year and should prove one of
the most valuable men on the
squad.
Rapid Strides
Bob Yarwood, another junior,
has made rapid strides since tak
ing up the sport last year and
now ranks as one of Coach
Geier's top performers on the
side horse and parallel bars.
The Cornhuskers, though
weakened by the loss of four
year letter winner and last year's
captain, Leo Geier, are comforted
Miami Gridders
Andy's Dandies
This Season
Down Florida way, they're
calling this unbeaten but once
tied 1950 Miami team "Andy's
Dandies" with a low bow in
the direction of Andy' Gustaf
son, coach of the swirling Hur
ricanes. In three short seasons, Gus
tafson has put together a team
that is one of the Southland's
best, one tapped for an Orange
Bowl appearance. That's sudden
success for a man who has de
voted most of his coaching life
time to aiding other head
coaches achieve gridiron promi
nence. Gustafson played his college
football under both Glen War
ner and Jock Sutherland at
Pittsburgh. After a four-year
head coaching term at V.P.I., he
returned to Pitt as Sutherland's
backfield assistant,
and from
there went to Dartmouth as Earl
"Red" Blaik's No. 1 backfield
aide. He followed Blaik to Army
a 10-year tour where he was
more recently identified with
the Cadets' "dream backfields"
Doc Blanchard, Glenn Davis,
Arnold Tucker and Shorty Mc
Williams. Andy is riding the crest this
year, after a creditable six won,
three lost record in 1949. His
Miamians have tipped over eight
opponents, being waylaid only
by a 13-13 draw with Louisville
in their all-winning splurge.
Talent
Talent sticks out all over the
Hurricanes a squad that some
how smacks of past Notre Dame
teams with names like Czap
linski, Chwalik, Bartolovich,
Carapella, Schneidenbach, Arc
angeletti, Bouyoucas on the ros
ter, and here and there a Mar
tin, a Dooley and a Smith dust
to keep things honest.
Then there is Gustafson, the
shrewd Swede who, Miami
sportswriters say, has keyed this
1950 Miami outfit to a superb
pitch.
Following Miami's 20-14 win
over traditional rival Florida,
sports editor Jimmy Burns of
the Miami Herald described the
UM's locker-room scene in this
fashion:
"Beaming his pleasure, Andy
hopped around UM's dressing
room like a Mexican jumping
bean. The tired, but smiling
players were filing in, and
Andy kept asking 'Are they all
here?
Andy Leaps
"Finally someone reported all
were present, so Andy leaped
upon a table and shouted for at
tention. The players paused in
the exchange of their own per
sonal compliments and listened.
"'You remember last Septem
ber I told you Pitt was the one
game we had to win,"' Gustaf
son said, and then asked. "What
wa the other one?"
"The weary Hurricanes blend
ed their voices into one to chorus
the reply, 'Florida.'
'"Thank you a lot," Andy re
sponded, '"You did a great job.
There will be no practice Sun
day.' "
Homecoming for
K-State Cagers
It will be homecoming for
members of Kansas State's first
officially coached basketball
team Saturday night when Coach
Jack Gardner's Wildcats meet
Utah State in K-State's new

have accepted invitations to be
the College's guest at the gala
opener. One will come from as
far away ,is Buffalo, New York.
Members of the first team had
a 6-3 record against other Kan
sas colleges.
Basketball was first played at
Kansas State In 1903, but the
team had no coach so official
records credit the 190S-08 group
s being the school's first court
club. Games were played in a
ballroom on the second floor of
a downtown bank building and
a barn's haymow.
C. W. Mclick, former Nebraska
and Northwestern player, coach
ed the first club that one year'
before turning tha reins over to
the late M. F. Ahearn who was
later to become director of ath
letics. At least nine members of
Gardner's 1939 club, his first
team at Kansas State, also will
te special guests at the game.

Thinclads Break Five of Nine
Records Thursday; Sigs Lead
By Jim Kostal
Aulstant Sparta Editor
The all-out assault on inter
mural records continues unabated
as the 1950-51 Intramural Track
and Field Meet swept through
the second round of prelimin
aries. Four events, the 60 yard high
and low hurdles, the 60 yard
dash, and the two lap run were
held Tuesday and Wednesday
with the only two existing hurdle
records and one 60 yard dash and
one one-lap record holding up
through the prelims.
The two-lap run became the
unexpected center of attraction
as four runners bettered existing
records in this event, three in the
Fraternity division and one in
the Independents.

this winter.
meet, breaking his own Fratern
ity record of 64.7 seconds for the
two-lap with the spectacular
time of 62.7 seconds. This is two
full seconds under the old mark.
Lee Alexander of Sigma Phi
Epsilon, Monday's record-breaker
in the one-lap run, was also
well under the old mark, winning
his heat in 63.5 seconds. Bob
Barchus, representing Sigma Chi,
had the third best time of 64
seconds, also under Jones' old
mark.
Schnackel Runs
Dale Schnackel, running for
the Field House, sped to a new
record in the Independent divi
sion of the two-lap run with a
64.2 effort, which breaks Sch
nackel's old mark of 65.1 seconds,
set in 1940. Blake Cathro, also
of Field House, was timed in 67.8
for second place in the prelims
of this event.
Presby House, defending Inter
denominational champion, leads
that division in two-lap quali
fiers, Harold Sampson register
ing a 69.3, which was the top
mark reported in this class. Mil
ler of the Ag Y.M.C.A. came in
second in this division.
The 60 yard dash also provided
some thrills with Lee Alexander
being clocked in 6.4 seconds,
another new record for the Fra
ternity division. This arases
Alexander's old standard of 6.5
seconds, set in 1948. Bob Bar
chus, Sigma Chi, turned in a
nifty 6.5 clocking, good for
second place. Hobe Jones, Alpha
Tau Omega, was third with a
time of 6.6 seconds. The time
recorded for Alexander was ex
ceptional, considering the fact
he ran the distance in stocking
feet on a slow track.
Record to Einspahr
Glen Einspahr, Frosh football
player, turned in the surprise
performance of the day by win
ning the prelims of the Indepen
dent 60 yard dash in 6.7 seconds,
which is a new record for this
event. The old mark of 6.8 was
set by Rex Coffman of Ag Men's
Club in 1949. However, Coffman
served notice that he is ready to
defend his sprint titles won last
year by running a 6.8. Blake
Cathro, Field House, and Cliff
Dale, another Freshman foot
baller, tied for third with a 6.9
clocking.
Dick Stansbury, Presy, led all
Interdenominational runners in
the sixty with a 6.9 effort. Samp
son and Weed, also of Presby,
finished second with timings of
7.0 seconds.
Dan Tolman, Sigma Chi,
turned In the best time in the
Fraternity 60 yard lows, taking
his heat in the very good time
of 7.5 seconds. Four men finished
in a second place tie with times
of 7.7 seconds. They were Hobe
Jones, ATO; Don Coupens, ATO;
Don Bedker, Phi Gam; and Don
Richardson, ATO.
Stansbury Breaks Mark
Stansbury, Presby, added to
his efforts in the 60 yard dash
and the one and two-lap runs
with a fine 7.7 effort in the 60
yard lows. His time is a new In
terdenominational record, eras
ing the old mark of 7.8 seconds
set by Glenn Bcerlinc last year.
Bill Giles, also of Presby House,
came in second with a 7.8 clock
ing. Lindquist, representing Luth
eran Student Association, finish
ed third with a time of 8.0
seconds.
Tolman also recorded the best
time in the 60 yard highs, win
ning his heat in 7.9 seconds. This
was two-tenths of a second bet
ter than that of Don Bedker, Phi
Gam, who had a 8.1. Don Cou
pens, ATO, was third with an
8.2.
Lindquist, L.S.A., had the best
time in the Interdenominational
division, winning his flight of
sticks in 8.4 seconds. Weed, Pres

scheduled for the 1950-51 meet,
the Fraternity team race has de

Cyclones Send
Two to Coast
For the second time in its foot
ball history, Iowa State will
send a pair of footballers into
action in what sports writers
often call the only worthwhile
bowl game of the year the
twenty-sixth annual East-West
football classid.
Jim Doran, the Cyclone All
American end, and Bill Weeks,
twice all-Big Seven choice (ns
is Doran), will report in San
Francisco, Cailf., Dec. 17 to
start training for the battle with
the East team at Kczar Stadium,
Dec. 30. All proceeds for the
game go to the Shrine hospital
for crippled children.
Two top performers in the
1939 game were a pair of Cy
clones, too. All-Amorican guard
Ed Bock, and end Chuck Heile
man. Marchie Schwartz of Stanford
is the head coach this year. Jess
Necly of Rice will be one as-
slstant. Bud Wilkinson of Okla
homa was to have been the third
coach but must be replaced be
cause of the Sooner Sugar Bowl
date. Unconfirmed rumors have
Missouri's Don Faurot replacing
his Big Seven rival on the West
staff.
The selection of Doran marks
the slJrnax of an amazing foot
ball career. The 6 foot 2 inch
190-pound senior never played
football in high school. He
propped at Beaver (Iowa) in a
school so small that it has dis
appeared in late years. There
he was a basketball (once scored
35 points In one game) and base
ball star.
The shadow of things to come
was thrown across the intra
mural basketball courts Wednes
day night in the form of squeez
ing wins and lop-sided routs.
New champions appeared to be
entering the field of honors
while the old champs appeared
doomed to fade.
Defending All -University
champion, Alpha Tau Omega,
felt the descending axe in their
opener. Phi Delta Theta was the
conqueror here in a 39-31 affair.
But to win, the Phi Delts had
to overcome a seven-point firstf
period deficit.
The Taus led at the end of
that initial quarter by a 14-7
score and appeared to be suc
cessfully opening their campaign
for two titles in a row.
The second period gave indi
cation of what was to come,
however, as the Phi Delts out
scored the ATO's 6-4. Halftime
score read 18-13, ATO.
The Phi Delts were on the
beam now and by the end of
the third quarter the game was
all tied up, 24-24. But the vic
tors were far from through. Fif
teen more points swept through
the hoops while the Taus could
tally only seven and there was
the ball game.
Battey High
Chick Battey led the way in
scoring for the Phi Delts with
ten points while Farmer and
Roper each garnered eight. Bill
Sloan of the Taus collected 15
markers.
Sigma Nu, which finished sec
ond in the All-University rat
ings last year, also ran into a
stumbling block. The Nu's were
slapped early by Sigma Alpha
Epsilon and lost 21-30. Bill
Shainholtz led the scoring pa
rade over the losing Nu's with
a night's total of nine.
The Sig Alphs tallied eight
markers in the first quarter
while alloting the slow moving
Nu's only two points. Both teams
garnered eight in the second
quarter and halftime the Sig
Alphs led 16-10.
The third period saw the win-

outscoring their victims, 12-7,
and Sigma Nu's game was lost.
Fran Nagle was top scoring: man
for Sigma Nu with eight points.
Leach -of the SAE's also collect
ed eight.
Sig Eps Romp
An expected close game never
materialized as Sigma Phi Epsi
lon walloped Delta Tau Delta,
33-15. The Sig Eps, led by Kay
Curtis, ran up. a 21-6 halftime
margin and then coasted to the
win.
Curtis hit his first four shots
from the floor and the Delts
never recovered. In all, Curtis
contributed a total of 12, points.
The Delts star center, Elmer
Vandel, was held to but four
points. Johnson of the Delts led
in scoring with five.
The closest game of the eve
ning came from Kappa. Sigma
and Delta Upsilon. The DUs
trailed the Kappa Sigs by nine
points with only a minute and a
half remaining in the game, but
four quick baskets narrowed
that gap to the game winning
point.
Start Fast
The victors started off fast and
led 15-5 at the end of the ini
tial period. From there the DUs
started their climb that heart
breakingly fell short.
Ed Berg topped the winning
scorers with seven points while
Bud Shaberg tallied six. Bill
Alexander topped the scoring
column for the DU's with a
night's effort of eight. Dale
Bueher was second high with
five markers.
Phi Gamma Delta overcame a
slight first period deficit to rock
Beta Sigma Psi to the tune of
44-29. The Beta Sigs owned a
10-7 lead going into the second
quarter but saw that quickly
fade.
Gerald Robertson led the at
tack for the Fijis with a point
total of 14, the highest total dur
ing the opening day's competi
tion. With Robertson hitting, the
Fijis grabbed a halftime lead of
17-14.

The final half was the same
story with the victors outscoring
the Lutherans, 25-15. Bob Olm
