usfe. Fight Mean
Kansas Win -Phog
Glenn Nelson
Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, whose Kansas Jayhawkers trimmed
Nebraska, 65-59, Monday night credited the win to his KU team's
hustle and fight. "We have little experience, depending heavily
upon sophomore strength,' the Grand Old Man of Basketball said.
"And without Bom, we'd have no size. I didn't expect tc beat Ne-
urusna, dui me game couia nave gone eitner way.
Tne fiery Kansas wtzzard said that his most
trying- moment during the fame came when
Dean Kelley, captain of the Jayhawk five, hart
his back in the third period and was taken from
the rame. Trainer Dean Nesmith was unable
to discover Kelley's ailment, and after Phog
talked to him, he returned to the game.
Dscribing the keep-away type of offense
used in the waning moments of the game. Dr.
Allen explained, "We never stall, just to freeze
the scoring. Our offense at the last of the game
when we're a few points ahead usually works the
ball around to either draw fouls or loosen our
Nelson opponent's deefnse to enable us to drive in for
lay-ups."
The Kansas mentor explained that this type of offense was
used to protect leads against both Oklahoma A & M and Iowa
State, the Jaybawks two wins last week. The Aggies were rated
fifth in the nation when they toppled to Born and company Thurs
day night at Lawrence. Since they they have lost some prestige,
dropping to ninth rating.
"We scored seven or eight points against the Aggies in the
last minute of the game, the 67-year-old professor said. "By hold
ing the ball and forcing opponents to become desperate on defense,
you hold a tremendous advantage. But you have to get the lead
first-'
Defense Gets Credit
Coach Allen rated his team's half-court pressing deiense as one
of the greatest contributing factors in the KU win. The Hawk bar
ricade set up against the Huskers allowed Nebraska's top three
scorers only 25 points collectively. Fred Seger, Joe Good and Bill
Johnson, all well above the 100 mark, hit seven, eight and 10
points, respectively.
"I was certainly afraid when we held a half-time lead of 12
points," Allen commented. "I'd sooner have my team go in at
intermission a point or two behind, knowing they'll have to fight
to win the game.' The Nebraska team did outscore the Kansas
team, 35-30, during the second half, but it was not enough to
close the gap.
"It was our greatest defensive game of the season," Phog said,
"and it was a terrific game to win."

RECEIVES ROBERTS TROPHY ... Ed Husmann. senior tackle
on Coach Bill Glassford's 1952 Husker football team, was awarded

Commissioner John Rosenblatt (center), holds the mike, which is
awarded each year to the most valuable NU gridder. At the left
is Tom Novak, former Nebraska All-America center, who was
first to reecive the trophy In 1949. Husmann was co-captain of

Sports Staff Writer
"They're an unpredictable out
fit," said basketball coach Harry
Good in reference to Saturday's
game with Iowa State.
Good said, "We've gotten the job
done on our home court in the
last few years. If they're not we'll
have to go out and get them, if
they're cold we won't have too
much to worry about. I think we'll
beat them."
The Husker coach plans to
use a one defense. If the Cy- j
clones get hot, the Cornhuskers
will move to a man to man
press.
Iowa State trees a double-post
offense centered around Delmar
Diercks and Chuck Duncan.
Diercks is a 6-8 senior and the
scoring punch of the Cyclones at
tack. Duncan stands six feet four
and one half inches.
A factor in the Kansas vic
tory Monday night, was the con
dition of Nebraska's starting
forwrads, Don Weber and Will
Fagler. Both boys were greatly
hampered with the flu. Fagler
went home Tuesday while
Weber stayed in bed to shake off
the sickness.
The sudden, resurgence of for
ward Paul Fredstrom, who started
several times as a freshman last
year, gives the Huskers another
top-flight substitute in addition to
Stan Mtazke.
Coach Good commented on the
fact that Kansas' center B. H.
Born potted 34 points, more than
half of the total 65 points pro
team. After starting with a cone
defense, Nebraska switched to
the man to man style which fell
apart in the last quarter.
Starting at forwards for Iowa
State will be Virg Byerly, a five!
foot 10 inch senior who also runs
the half mile on the track team,
and Duncan.
At the guards will be co-captain
Sam Long and 6-3 Carl Van
Cleave.
Diercks will hold down the cen
ter position.
Cyclone coach, Chick Suther
land has two experienced let
termen for reserves, Clare Rus
sie a 6-5 senior forward and
Jerry Davis, a junior and an
excellent ball hawk.
. If. they're in shape, Coach
Good will start Fagler and Weber
at the forwards, Bill Johnson at
center, and Joe Good and Fred
Segar at the guards.

record Monday night as his 55
points led his tiny Rio Grande

Wright-Patteron Air Force Base
Kittvhawks.

Chuck Davey Gets
39th Ring Win
Charles (Chuck) Davey gained
his 39th professional boxing vic
tory Tuesday night with an easy
knockout win over John Williams
in a 10 round match in Toledo.
It was Davey's last tuneup
bout before bis welterweirht
championship fight with Kid
Gavilan in Chicago.
Williams fought only one match
last year a loser to Sammy Gui
liani, who had an 18-pound
weight advantage.
with a minute gone on Ralph
Nickel's free toss and then the
lead changed seven times in the
initial stanza as both teams
alternated with two-pointers.
The winners held their last lead
until the closing moments at
that point, 8-6.
Favored Acacia went to work
the two middle periods and twice
broke ties on baskets by Nickel
and Woody Meyer to take a 15-13
intermission margin. Jerry Jack
son took care of the bulk of
Pioneer's scoring in the first half,
garnering eight.
After the half, the Masons con
tinued to stretch their slim lead
and the help of free tosses by
Nickel and Neal Pohlman had
boosted the gap to 20-16.
Pioneer began to roll again
with seven minutes to play.
Trailing 16-21, Phil Lehman and
Lyle Wolfe hit fielders and Bud
Lingo added a charity shot and
the game was all even.
Lehman came through with two
minutes remaining with a pair of
gift throws and the winners had
the lead back again. The Masons
battled furiously in the waning
moments but could offer no more
threat than Meyer's free throw
and the Pioneers had won.
Tbe victors offered one of tbe
best displays of ply-execution
by "B" teams seen this season,
their inability to connect when
in the open kept the contest
close all tbe way.
Nickel of the losers topped all
scorers with 11 points while Jack
son's eight first-half pointers was
high for the winners. Lehman
added seven to the winning total
while Meyer counted six for the
Acacians.
