Wednesday, March 5, 1952 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN 7ffe He elfs iteac BY BILL MUNDELL Intramural Sports Columnist , look who's still In tho I-M basketball tourney. After Mon- oay night's tournament action there were some who were still confused. There were close games that were doped to be 1 routs ana routs that were ex R pected to be won by only a point k nr- rum H Ol-A -unwn mm. J overtimes and overtimes. No actual upsets were re corded In the books. That Is, no underdogs actually won, but they sure rave the favorites a whirl of a time. The closest game coming to an upset was the big game of the evening. Phi Kappa Psi met Sigma Alpha Epsilon before over 150 spectators that, jammed court II to see the potential battle for the All-University championship. The game was rated a toss up with any edge the Phi Psl'i owned, because of their number one rating, disappearing because of the inability of Bob Rey nolds to perform. Reynolds twisted an ankle in a Saturday practice. It was close all right, close to two places at -he beginning of the game and after the Sig Alphs I caught up before romping to a 01-32 - in. The rambling 'hi Psi's gave a fancy exhibition of basketball that ran the SAE's ragged in the iirsfnine minutes of play. At that point the Phi Psi machine owned a 16-5 lead. They must have made the Sig Alphs made because from that point on, It was 1 11 SAE. Behind the brilliance of Don McArthur, Bill Wenke and Ron Roeder, Sigma Alpha Epsilon struck and the echo was heard all over the campus. Slapping the Phi -Psi's down with only Larry Andersen's goal, the Sig Alphs roared by a 21-18 halftime margin. Wenke took the spotlight in the second period with three swishers from the corners that fcroke the Phi Psi back. Then Dynamite Jon took over. McArthur was unstoiable in the second hall as he poured hook shots, left .. and right-handed. through the meshes, danked jump shots and was even on the scor ing end of a blazing fast-break in one instance. All told, McArthur blazed the nets for a total of 22 points for top honors in the contest. He was ably supported by -Wenke .and Roeder who got ten apiece. Jerry Anderson led the Phi .Psi's with eight counters fol lowed by Bob Bachman with seven. The result of the game brought forth the cry, "Who will stop the Sig Alphs?" and it's a good ques tion. The SAE's are currently favored to take it all in the next four days of action. Alpha Tau Omega, Sigma Phi Epsilon and Delta Tau Delta re mained in the race with quarter final victories with all but the Taus getting more than their share of scores. The ATO's, man-handling Sigma Chi during the initial three quarters, led going into the final ten minutes, 33-16, and breezed on to win, 38-24. The Sigs were hopelessly outclassed throughout the game. Bernie Scheer topped the Tau attack with 11 counters with Al Blessing contributing another nine. Ted Connor led the Sig scoring with similar nine points. Sigma Phi Epsilon was sup posed to name their own score against Sigma Nu, but the Sig Eps nevfer gained the lead until Conference To Be Held One of the fastest fields in Big Seven swimming annals will go to their marks in the Coliseum pool Friday and Saturday. Hoilie Lepley, University coach and meet director, be lieves the Conference record book will be completely e wrltten by the time the meet ends Saturday night. "Swimmers on the Iowa State and Oklahoma team have broken every existing record during the dual meet season," Lepley points out. "The 440-yard record has been lowered by 15 seconds, the relays by seven and eight seconds and other events from two to eight seconds." The first event on the program will be started at 9:15 Friday morning. It is the 1500 meter free style and in this field will be Graham Johnston, British Empire champion at this dist ance In 1950. Johnston, native At Bloemfon- tein, South Africa, swims for Oklahoma. He is favored to pat the bank first after 65 lengths of the pool have been navgated. Two point winners from 1951 will be returning. Russ Thomas, Iowa State, who won the event a year ago and George Holan, Iowa State, who placed fourth, will provide Johnston with his stiffest opposition. Thompson was a triple crown winner in 1951, taking the 1500 meters, the 220 and 440-yard freestyle. Other returning cham pions include Bob Brown. Iowa State's Olympic prospect, who won the 60 and 100-yard free style; Lee Anderson, winner of both back stroke events for the Cyclones; Bob Thatcher, Okla homa breaststroke champion and the two Iowa State relay teams. Lee Venske, University of Colo rado quarterback in football, is entered In the tme and three meter fancy diving events. David Glender, son of the Oklahoma coach, Joe Glander, and Earl Hal lum, also of Oklahoma, are favored in these events. As, Sig Hps, 9 Ouarferfinals Eps never gained the lead until game. Even then the Sig Nu's barged right back and knotted the score to force the game Into overtime before losing, 31-36. Sig Nu Don Brym had the fi nal outcome of the contest in his hands. With the regulation game finished and the 'ig Eps one point on top, Brym toed the free-throw line with two tosses coming to him. A different outcome was the result of any combination of his tnrows. All by himself on the court. Brym's first throw rolled off the hoop and the Sig ps were as sured of at least a tie. A tie was all they got for the time being as his second toss was straight and true and the score was knotted at 31-31. Sig Ep reserve power asserted itself iy the overtime and crushed the last spark out of the dead-tired Nu's in the form of baskets by Art Hanson and Bov Svanda and a free throw by AI Hanson. . t Nu Lyle Altman took ton scoring nonors n the game with is points while Art Hanson coun tered with ten. Brother Al added six to the Sig Ep total while Irv Peterson notched six for Sigma Beta Theta Pi used a third quarter surge to scare Delta Tau Delta before falling, 34-38 The Delta owned a comfortable 21-7 margin going Into that third stanza, but the Betas were Just getting ready to go, The three Beta Toms, Harring ton, Healy and Weekes, unleashed a scoring barrage that narrowed the gap to 28-31 going into the final period. Only five counters by George Paynich kept the Delts above water. Dave Olson kept the Delts out in front in the final quarter and Delta Tau Delta slipped into the semi-nnais. Harrington topped all scoring with 13 counters followed by Paynich with 12. Olson and Ray Mladovich each garnered eight for the winners as did Healy for the losers. All the spine-tingling action wasn't turned in by fraternity "A" outfits. Sigma Alpha Epsilon "B" and Farm House "B" played an over time dilly. A ew record was recorded in the books as the two Bees fought their way through five overtimes before the SAE's won, 33-31. For 13 & minutes after the regulation game had ended, the two teams battled before Pete Jeffrey dunked the needed two- Bucky Gets UP Mention Clyde Lovelette, University of Kansas center, was chosen on the United Press All-Amer-ica basketball team this week. He was placed on the first five, composed also of Dick Groat of Duke, Chuck Darling of Iowa, Cliff Gagan of Kentucky and Mark Workman of West Virginia. Jim Buchanan, Nebraska high-scoring senior guard, re ceived honorable mention. Though only six feet even tall, Bucky was a top point-getter in the Big Seven.

Ij pointer for a Sig Arph victory. Ray Vlasin potted a fielder with three seconds remaining in the regular contest to give the Aggies a 29-29 tie. In the first three minute overtime Al Cramer of the SAE's and Denzll Cleg matched goal and that was all of the scor ing until Jeffrey's winning toss. Both teams refused numerous free throws in the four sudden death overtimes in order to try ior tne important two-pointer. Vlasin took top scoring hon ors with 14 counters while Aggie mate Marv Panelts notched an other eight for the losers.

Only two re main m tne select eroun now. M-sitreet Boys and Newman Club, lgma Chi "B" was surmosed to beat Alpha Tau Omega "B" by 15 points. The junior Sigs won bv 17 points, but the scorebook doesn't tell half the story. it doesn't tell how the Sigs, second ranking "B" team, found themselves outplayed, outshot and outfought In the first twelve minutes only to stage a terrific uphill fight and win easily. The ATO Bees made the Sigs look silly in the first quarter, running to a 14-2 margin at the intermission. It wasn't enough to win, however, and it served only to give the Sigs a little wisdom. Sigma Chi learned its lesson well and proceeded to demonstrate by rallying to an 18-18 halftime mark, catching their breath in a life-less third' period and shatter-! ing the Taus in the big fourth quarter, to win 44-27. Larry Dunning and Ben Leon ard again provided the one-two punch for the Sigs with 15 and 14 points, respectively. Chuck Marshall contributed 11 more to the winning total.
