A new leader and the monopo
lizlng of the All-University rat
ings by the fraternity "A" cage
teams is what the fourth of the
weekly intramural basketball rat
ings disclose. Phi Kappa Psi has
taken over as the top I-M team
in the University while seven of
the top ten spots are occupied by
members from the senior frater
nity division.
The frolicking Phi Psi's hum
bled Alpha Tau Omega, number
one for the past three weeks, to
take over the ranking position.
The Taus, still owning an early
season win over the leaders,
drop only to the runnerup slot.
In addition to their battle last
week, the top two outfits also
won handily over other oppo
nents. The Phi Psi's routed
Beta Theta Pi, 44-19 while the
ATO's were drubbing Kappa

McGuire has warned his team
that performances Saturday
against the Sooners will have to be
as good as against Michigan State
in order to win.
This is the week that Joe Glan

feels like the man in Poe's short
story, "Descent Into the Mael

to the faint hope that the small
Oklahoma team may ride out

Farm House continues as the

The Aggies are still sporting the

do better with a stronger schedule.
Idle Delta Tau Delta advances

the Frosh, advance a peg in the
standings, also to ninth place.
The Ag College Doan Nuts
also advance one peg, climbing
to fourth spot. The Nuts won
their eleventh contest of the

No. 2, 43-30.
The Bearcats won two last week

proud intramural scoring records
are no more.
They were smashed into smith
erines Wednesday night by a ram

Street boys who found no com
petition from ASME and decided
to try for something else. They
succeeded!
The M -Streeters crushed the
engineers by the score of 107
21, scoring 24 points in the first
quarter and following with 27,
22 and 34 counters in the sub
sequent stanzas. Even the score
book couldn't keep up with the

I he 107 markers establishes a
new all-time I-M scoring mark

Newman Club in 1951 and tied
by Alpha Tau Omega in 1952.
The 66 points representing the

Nebraska athletic teams have had a tough year in the 1951-52
season.
Beginning with football, the Cornhuskers have taken it on
the chin all around.
Currently, the scholastic SDorts year is at its mid-winter peak,
with basketball, indoor track, gymnastics, swimming and wrestling
squads in action. None or the riusKer atnietic teams now in me spot
light can be classed as a top outfit.
The overall nicture is not rosy. But there are a few bright
spots. The basketball team is experiencing one of the worst years
in Nebraska cage History. , rne iracn team, wnne one 01 tne Desi
in the conference, is at best a darkhorse in the Big Seven meet at
Kansas City. The wrestlers of Al Partin have yet to win a meet.
Coach Hollie Lepley's swimmers have shown promise, and have the
ability to win in their own pool. Nebraska's gymnasts, under the
tutoring of Jake Geier, have made good showings though losing a
couple of meets to tough opponents.
Some individual bright spots in the gloomy scene are the
performances (f:
Jim Buchanan and Joe Good, the two vets who have kept Harry
Good's basketballers from being a total loss with their smooth ball
handling and shooting.
Clayton Scott, Ed Weir's sophomore distance runner who
shows promise of being an all-time Husker great.
Paul "Taj Mahal" Grimm, the shotputter who may win the Big
Seven crown.
Don Bedker, who is breaking records In the hurdles and will
be the favorite in the Big Seven meet high hurdles.
Broad jumpers Glenn Beerline, Hoppy McCue and Irv Thode,
who make up the strongest jumping corps in the conference.
Swimmer Buele Balderston, a senior who leads his teammates
in scoring and is one of the top freestylers in the conference.
Gymnast Tom Kidd, a top performer who makes a habit of
being the top scorer for the Huskers in dual meets.
These individuals have added color and sparkle to .Nebraska
athletic teams this year. It has been these performers who have
given Husker fans something to cheer about in what is otherwise
a somewhat dismal season.
The crack of the bat which is familiar to all baseball fans is
heralding the arrival of spring baseball practice for Coach Tony
Sharpe's Nebraska diamondmen. Every night the baseball team
works out in the NU fieldhouse in preparation for their April 4
opener with Drake here.
Seven lettermen lead the list of candidates for the starting nine.
However, some talented freshmen and sophomores will be making a
strong bid to shove the vets out of their positions. Coach Tony
Sharpe sees strong competition for every post on the ball club,
with no one being assured of' a spot.
The veterans who return rfom last year are letterwinners Bob
Diers and Jerry Dunn, outfielders; Bobby Reynolds and Ray Mlad
ovich, infielders; Dick McCormick and Dale Bunsen, pitchers; and
Jack Shull, catcher. In addition to these lettermen, John Leach and
Al Benjamin are back fromt he 1951 aggregation. Leach is an in-
fielder and Benjamin a pitcner.
It s too early to make a prediction orr the Cornhuskers. but
the chances are diamond fans will

The Comets led at all inter
missions by scores of 15-10,
25-18 and 34-28 but it was
basket for basket between the
two during the final two and
one-half minutes.
Bob Boesiger topped the eve
ning's scoring, leading the Comets
with 12 points followed by mates
Ralph Hall and Al Curtis with
ten each. Harvey Bettenhausen led
the Shorty attack with nine
markers while Lee Korte and
Willis Heim each garnered eight
The Warriors got revenge
from the Ramblers by a 64-35
score. Only a week ago the
Ramblers had taken the War
riors into camp, 30-22. Marv
Lawton was the big Warrior gun
again, padding his 29-point
performance with another 24 on
Wednesday.
Dick Walentine contributed an
other 17 to the winning log. Jim
Worth topped the Ramblers with
14 counters while Rich Schaffert
netted nine.
The Bearcats overcame a 9-4
first quarter lead of the Lillies
and went on to win a close one, j
42-40. All around strength paid
off for the Cats while in the
second half the Lillies could :
count only on Claire Johnson's
phenominal marksmanship.
Johnson finished on top of the I
scoring heap with a total of 22. !
Ray Svehla garnered 13 and Doug
McPherson grabbed ten for the
Cats.
The unbeaten Rockets chalked
up win number nine as they
throttled the Hawks, 52-25.
Roger Reals led all scoring as
he posted 17 to the winning
total while Phil Haas added 15
more. Dale Goffs 14 was high
