BY BOB BANKS
The Alumni cagers proved
aauiraay mgni tnat old basket
ball players as well as old sol
diers never die as they trounced
the Scarlet and Cream Varsity,
76-65.
Too much height and exper
ience proved to be the downfall
of Coach Harry Good's sauad.
The Alum combination of Milton
"Bus" Whitehead and Bob Pierce
had too much of both.
The Varsity got off to a con
vincing lead in the earlv mom.
ments of the game when Bucky
nucnanan scored two field goals
and Bob Mercier cashed in on a
free throw.
me Aiums Droke the scoring
column on a basket and free
throw by Whitehead.
From that point on in the first
quarter the Alums started pull
ing up. The scoreboard read 10-6
in the Varsity's favor with six
minutes remaining in the open
ing frame, 10-10 with five min
utes left, and the Varsity held an
18-16 sedge at the end of the
first ten minutes.
Personal Duel
A personal duel developed be
tween Buchanan and Whitehead
in this quarter with the Alum
center scoring 11 while Buchan
an racked up nine.
The grads hopped into the
driver's seat at the beginning of
the second half. With two min
utes gone they held a 20-18 lead.
Pat Mallette scored a basket
from the key hole to bring Good's
crew within striking distance of
the Alums, but Kenny Anderson
doused all their hopes with three
successive baskets in his initial
appearance while the Varsity
could tally only a free throw.
Danny Kuska scored the last
basket of the half. He hit a cor
ner shot with 23 seconds re
maining to give the Varsity a
halftime score of 30, but the
Alums had a comfortable 12 point
lead.
However, Coach Good jerked
his starting five early in the sec
ond quarter in order to give his
other players a chance to per
form under fire.
Scrappy Bob Mercier started
the third quarter by stealing the
ball from the Alums and tally
ing on a set up.
Whitehead retaliated for his
team, Joe Good got a long, and
Pierce scored on a pivot shot to
make the score 47-37 with two
and a half minutes gone.
Johnson Fouls Out
Bill Johnsonr the Varsity's 6-7
center, fouled out with two min
utes remaining in the third quar
ter. With him out of the game,
the Varsity had no one to battle
giants Whitehead and Pierce un
der the back boards.
The closest the Varsity could
crowd the Alums was 54-47 mid-

N U Golfers
Club Ichabods
The Husker golf team
swamped the Washburn Uni
versity team by a score of 16
to 1. It was the Huskers fifth
win of the season. They have
only lost one this season and
that was to the Kansas ' State
Wildcats on muddy fairways.
Joe Gifford of Nebraska took
medalist honors with a 77; he
was followed by his teammate
Erv Peterson: who posted a 78.
In the first match Joe Gif
ford defeated Jones of Washburn
by a 3-0 score. Husker Doug
Dale tied with Gascoigne of the
Ichabod squad 1-1. Gifford
and Dale dropped Jones and
Gascoigne 3-0.
Erv Peterson of the Huskers
drubbed Kasnicha of V'ishburn
by a 3-0 count. Husker Al
Blessing defeated Dutton of the
Ichabods by a 3-0 score. Bless
ing and Peterson took a 3-0 vic
tory from Kasnicha and Dutton.
way in the third quarter.
But the old-timers soon erased
that margin. With a minute and
a half remaining in the third
quarter they led 59-49. At the
end of the quarter the score
board read 63-49 in the Alums'
favor.
Whitehead had four fouls as
the fourth quarter got underway
and saw little action during the
remainder of the game.
But his absence did nothing to
hinder the Alumni squad. Pierce,
Neal Mosser and Joe Brown
teamed up to carry on the of
fense. -
Brown scored his only two
field goals in the last quarter,
and Mosser chipped in with
three.
The Alums led 72-58 with
three minutes remaining in the
game.
Sell Scores Last
Jess Sell scored for them as
the gun went off to bring the
final score to 76-65.
Good substituted as freely in
the second half as he did in the
first in order to give his charges
game experience. Only two
players, Gus Lebsock and Arnold
Stern, failed to see action ior
the Varsity.
Whitehead took scoring honors
for the day with 18 on seven
field fioals and four free throws.
Pierce cashed in on four field
goals and seven free throws to
account for fifteen points.
Buchanan scored five baskets
and six free throws to lead the
Varsity with 16. Mercier fol
lowed him with 12 markers on
three field goals and six free
throws.
Among the newcomers on the
Varsity, Clark Smaha, Mallette,,
Kuska and Weber performed
most creditably. Smaha scored
eight points, Mallette followed
with, five, Kuska had four, while
Weber scored one. All four men
turned in adequate floor games.
Johnson was up against some
rugged competition. He did not
fare to well against Whitehead,
but there are plenty of other
pivot men who didn't either.
But he still needs a lot of pol
ish plus the experience which he
will get next .year.
Three Officials
A feature of the game was us
ing three officials to direct the
game instead of the usual two.
This plan was highly effective,
and it may be one of the "new
looks" in college basketball
Good said his team still needed
"more experience in the post and
more height."
He praised the fine Alumni
showing and commented that he
was "surprised at their excellent
physical condition."
The Alums turned out in full
force for the fray. Only two men,
Bob Cerv and Bob Srb, were
missing from his conference
championship teams.
Bob Pierce was elected hon
orary captain of the 1950-51 team
at a recent dinner in the Corn
husker hotel.

national softball tourney play

turing close contests and run

on the coliseum grounds Friday
between the Geologists and Sig
ma Gamma Epsilon and the Ge

in the Sig Gams' championship
hopes. The Geologists were vic
tors by a 23-2 tally.
The victors socked the Sic

coasting behind the superb three
hit twirling of Arved Christen
sen. Chris hung up the top
strikeout performance of the sea
son, sending 15 Sig Gam batters
down swinging.
The Geologists sluggers
slammed out seven extra-base
blows during the rout including
four homers and three doubles.

Walt Weaver 6-2 and 6-2; Delton
of Nebraska lost to Blackburn of
Washburn 6-1 and 6-3; Stearns
of Washburn beat Husker
Schroeder by 6-1 and 6-3 count,
and Andy Bunten of Nebraska
was defeated by Klinestiver of
Washubrn 6-0 and -6-4.
Yetter was top man in batting
for the losers with two singles.
Presby House and the Method
ist Student House hooked up in
a good game Friday that saw
Presby finally winning, 8-5.
The Methodists jumped off to
a 4-0 lead in the second inning
on two walks and two errors.
Rollie Haas, on the mound for
the Methodists, was up to that
point mowing the Presby batters
down, one-two-three. He struck
out the first five men he faced.
The Presby bate came to life
in the third frame, however, and
pushed across two tallies to nar
row the gap a trifle. Four more
big runs won the game for Pres
by in the fourth stanza as the
winners socked Haas for three
hits and took advantage of two
bobbles afield by the losers.
Presby hurler, Mundell, was
touched for another run in the
top of the seventh, but it wasn't
enough to halt the Presbys who
had added a couple more in the
fifth.
Herb Lemon, Presby seoond
sacker, was the only man on
either squad to collect more than
one hit as he drove oat a single
and a double. His was the only
extra-base blow during the con
test, also.
The Lilies struck for two runs
in each the first and third innings
of their first round contest and
then held on to edge the Stu
dent Union, 5-4 Thursday. The
Lilies, although getting only three
hits off Union hurler George Hill,
made good use of three Union er
rors in running up their four
counters.
The Union men came back
strong in the fifth frame for three
tallies on two hits and a walk
from Lily pitcher, Weber. Weber
bore down in the final sixth
stanza, however, and shut out the
revived Unioners.
No man got more than one
bingle in the seven-hit game.
Clark and Ray Novak of the Lilies
each collected a double while Jack
Yamamoto of the losers also con
tributed a two-bagger.
The Dental College Frosh
turned in major first round sur
prise by blasting the Ag College
YMCA, 10-2. During the season
the Aggies had drubbed the teeth
pullers by 15 points, but Thurs
day was the dentists' day.
They saw the Aggies tie the
count at two-all in the bottom of
the first inning, but then broke
loose with one in the second and
three in the third.
Dent hurler Stem shut the los
ers out with but three more hits
after that and the Frosh coasted
to the victory.
Johnson and Weist each col
lected two hits to lead the victors.
L. Human also got two for the
losers. Gene Wilkens clouted a
home run in Che first Inning with
a mate aboard for the only two
Aggie runs.
Another Ag team found things
more agreeable in its first tourney
encounter. The Plamors overcame
