Footballer Jerry Brown and run
ner Joe Mullins share the spot
light this week as Daily Nebras
kan Stars of the Week.
Brown was chosen lor his out
standing performance in Satur
day's Band Day loss to Syracuse,
MulUn is being honored for his
record breaking victory in the
cross-country triangular meet with
Kansas State -and Colorado also
held last Saturday.
Brown, pile driving fullback.,
was a terror on both offense and
defense in the Syracuse game.
The Minden senior gained 41
j-ards in 12 carries for a S. yard
per carry average. Defensively,
Jerry was all over the field. At
one interval he was credited with
four consecutive tackles.
A guard under Bill Glassforfl in
19S5, Brown was an All-Big Seven
selection last season. He has been
hampered by a delicate knee this
year which has kept him from
reaching the peak 'Of conditioning.
Jerry has tremendous legs which

Eight lettermen head the Iowa
State 'basketball squad that is
working three days a week under
Coach Bill Strannigan.
"We'll not work more than three
one ot the nations top defensive
guards, is also a fine offensive
threat.
Another letterman on the squad
who will make a strong bid to un-
times a week until Nov. 1," Stran-1 seat either Crawford of "Medr.ker, j
nigan said as he started his fourth
season at Iowa State. "Practically
all of the time until Nov. 1 will be
spent on fundamentals. When we M Bud) Bergman from Grundy Cen-
is Gary Davis, 6-6 forward from (
Oilman. Another veteran on hand
from the 19ii5-56 season is Norman
go to daily drills will be soon
enough to assemble the team and
-work as a five man unit. It is a
long campaign and there is no
sense in going stale half way
through."
First question Strannigan had to
answer was about the two empty
spots on the starting lineup
caused by the graduation of Gary
Thompson, All-American guard,
and Chuck Vogt, Iowa State's most
prolific scoring forward.
"Well, late last year we oc
casionally moved Don Medsker to
forward to spell Vogt bo I guess
we'll leave him there," the hand
some gray Scot said. "John Kro
cheslri will be the center. At the
guard spot we'll probably let five
men 'battle to decide the spot. This
will include lettermen Al Lowery,
Dick Farwell and Ron Baukol and
cophomores Dale Johnson and
Larry Fie."
Baukol and Fie have not yet re-;
ported because of the flu. Another j
absentee for the same reason is !
Bernie Robinson of Storm Lake, !
promising forward candidate.
The other first team certainties
mre John Crawford, forward, and ;
Xyle Frahm, guard. Crawford isn't j
going to wait long in the season to j
better the forward scoring total of !
19 for career. That mark is I
now shared by Ray Wehde and j
Vogt. Crawford enters the season
"With total of 602 points. '
Frahm, rated by Btrannigan as
ter. Bergman will try for the
forward spot, as will Gene Gronau
of Dubuque.
Doug Meyer, Marlin Oosterhuis
and Frank Baber, all sophomores,
are the other varsity candidates.
The 1957-58 team will play the
toughest schedules in Cyclone his
tory, facing Michigan State, Min
nesota and Illinois of the Big Ten;
Brigham Young, Skyline cham
pion: Wyoming, Montana State,
and Drake, in addition to the na
tional toughies in the Big Seven.

Seven of the Big Eight's football
teams are slated for games this
weekend in a schedule which shows
three conference games and one
liitersectional contest.
The Nebraska Cornhuskers jour
ney to Missouri to tangle with the
Tigers in what could be tlie key
conference game of the year for
both teams. Barring injuries this
week,, the Buskers will be in their
top physical condition of the year
for the important encounter as the
entire injury list has been erased.
All 45 gridders on the team were
ready for practice on Monday ac
cording to Coach Bill Jennings.
This includes ends Mike Lee, Mar
lin Hilding and Bill Tuning, tackle
Don Olson and quarterback Hurry
Tolly all of whom sut out the
2f-9 loss to Syracuse.
Missouri, one of the undoteated
teams in conference play along
with Nebraska and Oklahoma,
showed power plus last week by
walloping Iowa Stat, 35 to 13. Iowa
State, a much improved team over
the past few seasons, played
good game but just couldn't cop
with Missouri power.
Colorado is slated to mi'et Okla
homa in a game whichnr should
prove to be a buttle of offenses.
Although the Buffs have lost only
one game this year, they are not
expected to upset Oklahoma. The
Sooners have appeared to be un
challenged for the conference
crown up thry have totaled 157
points in two games while limiting
their opponents to only 14. Paced
by the Nation's leading ground
gainer, Bob Stransky, tiie Bufib
have also exhibited a potent scor
ing punch as they have racked up
7t points while splitting even in
two games. With Stransky and
halfback Eddie Dove tallying all
six touchdowns, the Coloradoan's
had litile trouble in disposing of
Kansas State last week as the
Oklahoman's whipped the Wildcats
to ths tune of 42-14.
Last place Kansas State will jour
ney to Ames to tangle with tlie Cin
derella team of the conference,
Iowa State. Although the Cyclones
have lost two of tlveir three confer
ence games, they have shown a
greut deal of promise and should
be in top form for the game.

tangle with Miami University Fri- j day at 7 p.m. in room B-B of the :
