cannot Colorado ever win any

(since we are just as capable of

and, finally the supervising of the

Who does this teaching and

The coaching staff. Therefore, the

one immediately to believe that it-j

By BILL MUNDELL
Intramural Sports Columnist
Two members of the fraternity
"A" and All-University champion
Alpha Tau Omega cage team lead
the 1953 Fraternity "A" All-Star
Basketball team. Al Blessing at
forward and Dave Jones at guard
are the Tau representatives on
this year's honor array as a total
of 25 men received mention in an
actual vote by the competing
teams themselves.
Blessing and Jones were named
as the main reasons the Taus were
touch all season long by the Tau
opponents. It was also their ter
rific performances in the playoffs
that helped the ATO's to the All
University championship.
Joining Blessing and Jones on
the 1953 first team are Bob Bach
man of Phi Kappa Psi at the other
forward post, Fred Longacre of
Theta Chi at the center spot and
Ben Leonard of Sigma Chi at the
other guard position.
Blessing, Longacre and Bach
man were the top vote-getters on
this year's "A" lineup. Leonard
and Jones were not far in arrears.
Bachman iwas the scoring cog
of the Phi Psi aggregation that
lea the ratings most of the season
and entered the playoffs as one of
the two remaining undefeated fra
ternity "A" teams. He hit them
from all angles and especially
showed his wares on the pointed
end of a blazing fast-break. He
was slowed in only one game of
the year, that in the Phi Psi de
feat at the hands of Sigma Chi,
and then he dunked a total of 17
points.
Longacre was the Theta Chi
basketball team. With Fred in top
form the TC's were nigh unbeat
able despite an inexperienced club
around him. He turned in the top
individual scoring mark of the
year with a 40-point total against
Tau Kappa Epsilon, but perhaps
his greatest day was the opening
round of the playofis m wnicn ne
nearly led his mates to a stunning
upset of highly-favored Phi Kap
pa Psi.
Leonard was votea as xne Desi
of a whole host of Sigma Chi
stars. This marks the third straight
year Ben has claimed a first-team
berth on an all-star outfit, the
previous two outings having been
named on the fraternity "B" all
star lineups.
Just a shade behind Leonard in
the voting and from the same
team comes Ted Connor who
paces the second team at the cen
ter post.
Connor had his ups and downs
throughout the season, but when
he was at his best, the Sigs swept
past all opponents.
Teaming up with this Sig on the
second team are Bill Giles of Phi
Delta Theta and Dave Brandon
at forwards and Pat Mallette and
Larry Dunning of Sigma Chi at
the guards. Dunning's appearance
here makes it three Sigs among
the top ten men
Brandon and Mallette were
named as the reason the Sig Eps
madt it to the frat "A" finals for
the third straight year. Brandon,
playing center for the runnerups,
was overshadowed only by Bless
ing and Connor at his best form
during the hectic cage season. He
was top scorer for his outfit with
the jump and turn shot his spe
cialty. Mallette missed a possible first
team berth due to a back injury
just before the playoffs, but until
then he was a terror to Sig Ep
opponents.
Giles practically single-handedly
led the Phi Delta to surprise
after surprise In the tournament
after the Phi Delts had barely
made the playoffs.
In addition to the ten men
tioned, another 15 gained enough
votes to garner an honorable men
tion as a total of 131 men received
at least one vote from their op
ponents. Biggest surprise of the voting
was the failure of Hobe Jones of
the champion Taus to make a
higher rating. Jones was perhaps
the top individual performer of
the playoffs, but suffered In the
voting betause he was not suited
up during the first-semester's ac
tion. '
Thursday will see a total of 40
men named to five teams and an
honorable mention in the 1953
All-University basketball team.
Husker Golf Squad To Open
Against Wichita Wednesday
the players did not complete their
qualifying rounds. These included
Bob Russell, Tom Kissler, Tom
Weeks, Jack March. Bob Volz and
Ted O'Shea.
Big Bevo Booked
For Better Foes
Bevo Francis, 6-9 scoring wiz
zard for little Rio Grande Col
lege of Ohio, will get a crack at
the official national basketball
scoring title next season.
His 1,954 points scored as a
freshman last year were ruled out
because his school played mostly
junior colleges, vocational schools
and service teams. The National
Basketball Coaches Association
passed a rule that only points
scored against four-year, deg"e
granting colleges should count.'
Newt Oliver, Rio Grande cage
mentor, has lined up 20 senior
colleges for next year's sched
ule. The Ohio school played before
an $18.75 crowd in its first game
of the season, and closed with a
$5,100 gate in the final booking.
Big Bevo's scoring average was
50.1 for the season of 39 games.
Four University golfers leave
Tuesday on the southern trip
which starts Wednesday against
the University of Wichita at
Wichita.
The Cornhuskers will meet
Tulsa, Southern Methodist at Dal
las and Oklahoma A & M at Still
water on the southern swing.
The golfers played 54 holes to
qualify. Erv Peterson, only letter
man on the squad leading the list
with a 72-76-73221. The hottest
finish was provided by Louis
Roper who scored two birdies on
the last two holes to nose out Tom
Tolen by one stroke. The qualify
ing scores:
Erv Peterson 72-76-7S 221
Roger Gohde ... 80-79-75234
Dick Lauer 84-77-78239

Jay Benedict 83-83-83249

there will be some changes in the
team personnel as the season pro

were just beginning to hit their
stride, he said.

Milligan played his high school
football at Aliquippa, Pa., in
1922-'23-'24.
He played two years at Kiski
Academy and entered Pittsburgh
in 1927, playing on the freshman
team. After a year's layoff, he
returned to Pitt and lettered three
years at guard in 1929-'30-'31.
Milligan became an assistant at
Pitt in 1934 where he served as

the varsity guards, one of whom
was Bill Glassford.
After four years at Pitt, he
