THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
(Qm h WmhtBi? awM
Scarlet Drop Deeper Into
Loop Cellar as Cats Romp
Nebraska's cagers took a les-
eon in basketball artistry here
last night, a lesson that cost them
a 50-79 decision. Kansas State,
still riding undefeated atop the
Big Seven conference, walloped
the Huskers with a smooth, flaw
less brand of basketball.
Nebraska managed to grab the
lead by a 1-0 couat after both
outfits missed five free-throws
TThe Nebraskans also managed to
gain a 3-3 tie with four anri a
half minutes gone in the game,
but from that point on, it was all
Kansas State.
The Wildcats scored llsl.-ht
points while holding the Huskers
to none early in the first half,
end with only nine minutes ,..ie.
the Cats held a 16-4 lead. By
lialftime, the visitors had
etretched , that margin to 16
points and owned a 38-22 inter
mission lead.
. , GIBSON HOT.
It was too much Johnny Gib
son for the Huskers in .hat first
half as the K-State junior
pumped nine markers through
the hoops. Gibson got only the
credit for the actual scoring,
however, but it was men like Er
nie Barrett, Lew Hitch, Jack
Stone, and Jim Iverson that con
tinually fed the ball to I bson
in the clear.
It was the same story the sec
ond half, only with different
characters. Wildcat Coach Jack
Gardner cleared his bemhand
all but one man got into the scor
ing act.
The Huskers and Cats matched
points for the first five minutes
after the rest period. The closest
the Scarlet could get to the
rampaging Staters was 14 points,
early in the second half.
Last Chance
The Wildcats gave the Husk
ers their last chance about mid

Husker Tracksters
Sparkle Against CU
Bv JIM KOSTAL
Nebraska's power-laden track
equad, after an unexpected romp
past Colorado, plays host this Sat
urday to last year's Big Seven
conference indoor champs, the
ITnivprsitv of Kansas Javhawkers. !
in what might be the Huskers
toughest dual meet cf the year.
A throng of hearly 2,000 were
present for last Saturday night's
clash between "the Cornhukers
and the Buffs? marking the first!
time the two schools have met in 1
an official indoor meet. Conse
quently, all winners earned cred
it for records.
And some sparkling ' perfor
mances were turned in by indi
vidual standouts from both
teams.
Cooper Soars Again
Husker Don Cooper proved
that his 14-foot 4V4-inch leap in
the Iowa State meet a week ago
was no fluke as the Husker vault
ace soared to a 14-3 mark
against the Coloradoans.
The York senior attempted 14
1, and was well over on his sec
ond try but brushed off the stick
while releasing his pole. Leonard
Kehl was content with a 12-6
leap which wit good enough for
second.
Particularly pleasing to Coach
Ed Weir and Cornhusker track
tans was the surprising perfor
mance of Hebe Jones in the 440
yard dash. The former Lincoln
High ace covered the quarter
mile in :50.5, the fastest time re
corded for "this distance at the
Memorial Stadium plant in five
years.
Jones Donbles Successfully
Jones came , back thirty min
utes later to win the 880 yard
run with a sizzling last minute
kick that nipped teammate Dale
Schnackel at the wire. Jones'
time was 2:01.4. Ken Jacobs fin
ished a strong third to give the
Huskers their only slam of the
evening.
Augie Raso, streamlined Colo
rado dash man, Tjeat Nebraska's
Lee Alexander to the tape in the
fit rard dash for the first of three
Wne ribbons wo toy the Invad
ing Buffs. , ' :f
Alexander developed a slightly-pulled
leg muscle in the sixty,
and had to be scratched from the
quarter mile.
Colorado's Wally Tanner won
the shot put handily with a 48
foot 63,4-inch heave. The Husk
ers Paul Grimm came up with
his best toss of the year 45 feet
11 inches good enough for sec
ond place. Lowell Neils on,
Spaulding senior w e i g h t m a n,
was third with 43-foot 8-inch
-effort. - - -
V"
"? U G 0 17 6"
Win Handily
Nebraska's Gene Yelkiri and
Ken Jacobs simply ran away from
Colorado's John Rens in the ear
ly part of the mile run, and then (
were content to stride to a first
place tie in" 4:37.8.
Sophomore Dan Tolman upset
the dopesheet in the 60 yard high '
hurdles as he bested the Buffa
loes' touted timber-topper, Mer-'
win Hodel, with a 7.7 clocking.!
Husker Don Bedker was a close
third behind Hodel.
Irv Thode stretched out for a
22-foot 10-inch jump on his first
try in the broarl jump to edge
frnm teammate Glenn Beerline, I
who's best effort was 22 feet 7
inches. It was a battle of sopho
mores as Colorado's Nick Cata
lano recorded a leap of 22 feet
33i inches, ruining any chance
for a Cornhusker sweep in this
event.
Cole Surprises
Wendell Cole, Weeping Water
senoir, came up with a surprise
win in the 60 yard lows, besting
the Buffs Hodel and teammate
Don Bedker by three yards in a
6.9 clocking.
This is just one tenth of a see
off the conference record of 6.8
seconds, set by MadiU Gartiser
of Missouri in 1948.
The race was Cole's first since
he pulled a leg muscle nearly
three weeks ago.
Tno nnld. Colorado's lone entry
in the high jump, copped that
event with a leap of 6 feet Z
inches, Jnst three-eithths -t an
inch better than the Jump re
corded for second-place winner,
Dick Meissner of Nebraska.
Another Husker soph, Bob
Krueger, set a fast early pace in
the two-mile that was too much
for the Buffaloes Colin Couper,
and Krueger coasted the last
half-mile for an easy 10:13.7 vic
tory. Nebraska's relay team of Bob
Barchus, Leonard Kehl, Jack
Scoville, and Bill Hein waltzed to
a 3:35 victory in the mile relay
to give the Huskers their ninth
first place of the evening.
Meet Moved Up
The Saturday meet with Kan
sas U. has moved up one-half
hour so that Cornhusker fans can
see both the track meet and the
basketball game. The field events
will get under way at 6:30 p.m.
with the running events sched
uled to begin at 7 p.m.
The cage battle between Phog
Allen's Jayhawks and Coach Har
rv Good's Huskers, also sched
uled for Saturday, has been
moved up one-half hour and will
begin at 8 p. m. " "
bringing back that 16 point mar
gin and putting the score at 50
34. Coach Gardner put an en
tirely new aggregation on the
floor, but much to the sorrow of
the Husker faithful, they too
played terrific basketball.
The Kansas outfit netted six
quick markers and then matched
Nebraska's output until the score
read 64-45 with four minutes re
maining. Then the rout in its true
form made appearance and Kan
sas State zoomed to a 73-45 lead
in two and a half minutes.
Even here the State subs re
fused to be outscored despite
some fine shooting on the part
of Husker Jim Buchanan and
with the time running out, they
were desperately trying to notch
their 80th point. . .
Looked Easy"
Statistics on the shots showed;
the K-State superiority, 34 per
cent to 24 per cent, but they
don't tell how many time a Wild
cat eager was completely clear
under the NU hoops. In some of
the finest "snappy" basketball
seen on the home court in years,
the visitors made it look ex
tremely easy.
It was a well rounded band of
cagers that sent the Huskers
down to defeat. With 11 men
breaking into the scoring column
and seven men scoring seven or
more points, it was a team affair
all the way for the Furpie ana
White.
Buchanan High
Even with such a one-sided
score,. Nebraska produced the
high-scorer" for the evening in
.Tim Buchanan. Jimmy dropped
in six field-goals and five free
tosses to finish the evening wun
17 points. Most of Buchanan's
crnaic ramo via his favorite jump
shot from around the free throw
circle.
Sophomore Dick Knostman of
the Wildcats turned in, the next
best scoring performance with 15
points on four goals and seven
gratis throws.
Husker Bob Pierce made up a
part of his inability to connect
in the first half by ringing up
nine points in the second half.
Bob wound up the evening with
a total of 13 points.
Barrett and Gibson each con
tributed 12 markers to the K
State total, Gibson hitting five
for ten shots and Barrett con
necting on five of 12 attempts.
Mercler Shines
T.ew Hitch, the rangy 6-7 cen
ter for the Wildcats who was the
major cause of Long Island's de
feat at the hands of Kansas State
last week, only saw limited du
ty in the second half, making
way for his understudy Knost
man. Ruim Slate (79

Pitchers, Catchers
Finish First Drills
By John Re?o
(Staff Member Snprts Writer.)
At "Little Florida" (the Husk
ers' new Field House), home of
the University of Nebraska varsity
baseball squad, all aspiring pitch
ers and catchers have been going
through light conditioning drills
the past week before settling
down to the task of getting their
pitching arms in shape.
while head baseball coach
Tony Sharpe ' continues working
with the Freshmen baskeball
team, assistant coach "Ozzie" Os
sino has been putting the. boys
through the proverbial mill. Os
sino is a master in the art of
pitching, so to the many inexper
ienced moundsmen he will be
worth, his weight in gold.
No Predictions .
As to the strength or weakness
between the mound and home
plate this season, Sharpe and Os
sino are reluctant to predict any
thing. In the hurling department,
there are only two boys, Dick
Curley of Greg and Del Kopf of
Lexington, who have had some
varsity experience and even here
the experience is limited.
Curley looked great against
Washington University last year,
showing a very effective wide-
breaking curve, and a hopping
fast ball. With a little more self-
confidence, Dick could come
along strong this year.
After Kopf s brilliant perform
ance against a respectable Kan
sas State team in the final game
last season, it is hoped that he

will take up some of the slack
left by the loss of Linus Vrbka.
Optimism in McCormick
The greatest source of optim
ism on the basis of last year's
performances lies in "Pinky" Mc
Cormick of Silver Creek. McCor
mick has the makings for becom
ins one of the top chuckers in
Nebraska baseball history, and if
his -ailing arm heals sufficiently
he will probably receive Sharpe's
nod for the tough ones
Behind the plate, also, the big
problem to be faced is inexper
ience. The loss of Tom Novak, a
top receiver and power hitter,
left a wide gap which will be dif
ficult to fill. With a man of No
vak's caliber behind the plate,
the handicap of an inexperienc
ed mound crew would be greatly
offset.
Bob Lohrburg of Lincoln and
Bob Steinberger of Schuyler ap
pear as the most likely prospects
at this time. Another lad that
bears watching is Nick Adduci.
Although the Husker footballer
hasn't caught since his high
school days, it is hoped that after
the cob webs are shed he will
prove to be a valuable receiver.
, Ray May Catch
The appearance of Ray Mlado
vich, varsity first baseman last
year, as a catcher is also not be
yound the realm of possibilities.
During fall practice Ray showed
that he could readily make the
adjustment, if and when it be
came necessary.
In anv event, before the um
pire calls the starting battery for
the opening game, there will b
nlentv of experimentation, with
the knowns and unknowns get
ting equal opportunities to dis
play their wares.
Who knows, when Drake Uni
versity comes here April 6 for
the Cornhusker's first horn
game, we may find Ossino on
the hill and Sharpe behind tht
plate.
