It's Sure Nice To Be Home:
Bushmen Nip Sooners 57-54
In Tension Packed Contest
Tuesday, January 14, 1958
By BOB MARTEL
Sports Editor
If one of the vendors working in
the Coliseum last night would have
been selling tranquilizer pills rath
er than apples, he would have
made a fortune.
The Cornhuskers picked up their
first Big Eight Conference victory
57-54 over the Oklahoma Sooners
in a tension packed basketball
game that wasn't over until the
final whistle.
The Sooners went to the dress
ing room at intermission with i
comfortable 31-24 lead. At half
time it looked as if Doyle Par
rack's crew might make a romp
of it, but the Huskers roared back
afrer the short rest to win the
ball game.
Nebraska went ahead at 13:26
f the second half and from then
on it was a see-saw battle.
Paced iiy the fine shooitng of
Willie Fitzpatrick and Herschell
Turner, the Huskers enjoyed their
biggest margin of the evening at
4:30 when they shot ahead of the
Sooners 51-43.
Cap Closed
Oklahoma closed the gap to 55
64 with 19 seconds remaining when
Joe King hit on a layup but the
tall Sooner star fouled Gary Rei
mers and Reimers dropped in two
free throws to give Nebraska their j
margin of victory. j
The contest started out in jut
the same manner as it ended. The
coring lead went back and forth
until the last three minutes of the
initial canto when the Sooners
spread their lead to seven points.
The game was tremendous from
the spectator standpoint. The fans,
approximately 3500 of them, real
ly got their money's worth.
Fitzpatrick paced the Husker
scoring with 20 points. Turner and
Reimers chipped in with 12 and 10
points respectively.
Gene Hudson led the Sooner at
tack with 19 points. The Oklahoma
guard was all over the court grab
bing rebounds and setting up plays
in addition to leading his team in
scoring. Joe King helped the Soon
er effort with 12 points, most of
which came in the second half.
Whites Win
In the freshman jntrasquad
game, the Whites defeated the
Reds 57-50.
Al Maxey and Mel Harmon were
high for the winners with 17 and
12 points respectivelv while Bob
Garretson aaid Jim Kowalke had
16 and 15 for the vanquished.
Nebraska returns to action Sat
urday night when they host the
i Iowa State Cyclones at the Colis
eum.
In other Big Eight action last
night. Kansas behind the 32 point
contribution of Wilt Chamberlain
defeated Colorado 67-46. Iowa

Head football coach. Bill Jenn
ings, Tuesday said that the hen
point after touchdjwn ruling will
add interest to the game.
'It was a little unexpected, but
I think this new rule will prevent
tie games," Jennings s;iid. "One,
thing, the extra paint will now in
volve a little technique. Up to
now it has been a pretty cut and
dried play," Jennings continued.
"Some of the coaches in t.ie
country didn't like tne rule but we
have to learn to livj with it,"
Jennings coc'rdcd.
The new
kicking. You'll see z lot more kick
formatioons resulting in passing
or running plays."
Oliver Disgusted
Jor.ian Oliver, Yale It puts
an extra premium on rushing or
passing and virtually eliminates
kicking ... I'm disgusted. This is
the worst bunch of rules they have
come up with."
Ralph Jordan, coach of Auburn's
naiional champions "It will make
it tougher on coaches."
George Blrckburn. Cincinnati
"I can't wee any merit to he
thing. I think it should be a one
pointer or throw it out entirely."
The change is the first alteration
of football scoring rules since 1900
when a touchdown was upped from
five to six points a field goal wss
lowered to three. Crisler said Sat
urday that the change would be
studied for a year by a subcom
mittee along with a proposal to al
ter the position of the goal posts.
No action will be taken this year
on the goal post proposal.

Yell Leader
Still Active
In Sports
By LARRY BROWN
Special Writer
Go Big Red!
Have you ever wondered who
the blond, good looking fellow is
that leads the Yell Squad in cheers
and pep rallies?
He is Bill McQuistan, a junior
in the College of agriculture from
Wakefield, Neb.
Although Bill's job is often kid
ded and under-rated, it is one ci
the most important segments or
university spirit. In his white den
ims, white tennis siioes and wh;'-e
sweater with the big red "X", he
is the symbol of our campus ath
letic spirit.
Bill hasn't always been limited
to keeping up school spirit from
the sidelines however. At Wake
field High, he received such ath
letic honors as All-State Honorabl"
Mention in football and All-County
as a forward in basketball. He
also ran on Wakefield's Class C
State Championship Track Team.
Still Participating
Bill is continuing his athletics
in the intramural field at the Uni
versity. He has participated in in
tramural football and basketball
for the Theta Xi fraternity the
past three years, and he has par
ticipated in intramural track the
past two years.
Bill's sophomore year, he was
interviewed and asked to join the
Yell Squad by the Ye'l Sqjud,
members and their coach, J. GJ
Geier. He earned this post with
his friendly personality, poise, and
ability to work and learn. This
year the Yell Squad again bon
ored him by voting him as Yell
King.
Meets With Committee
Besides leading the Yell Squad
at ball games and rallies, Bill's
duties include meeting with the
rally committee to plan all camp.i :
pep rallies. He also serves on the
rally committee as a representa
tive from Corncobs, the men's
campus spirit organization.
Earlier this year. Bill was
chosen 8s the Homecomi.i;;
Queen's escort and also candidate
for the annual Prince Koimet
award.

passed. The old Jennings
rule provided for an attempt from
the two yard line with a kick, pass
or run counting one point.
Rule Called Ridiculous
Reactions of other coaches '
around the country were mixed. Ter-!
ry Brennan of Notre Dama called
the rule "ridiculous"' and pointed
out that "you have to fight hard
from any spot on the field for six
points and now you can get two by
going only three yards."
However, Blanton Collier of Ken
tucky contended that the rule would
be good for the game."
The rule w as passed unanimously
Sunday by the NCAA rules com
mittee. The NCAA is the intercol
legiate sports governing body for
large cslleges and universities in
the nation.
Retiring chairman of the board,
Michigan athletic director Fritz
Crisler, said the rule "will add
drama to what has been the dull
est, most stupid play in the game."
However, Duke coach Bill Mur
ray said he was "amazed and dis
turbed." "Somebody must have put the
rules committee in a trance . . .
Crisler has dominated the rules
committee long enough," Murray
continued.

NEWSPAPER PEOPLE ACTION
Every doy when newspapers and people
get together, things start popping. News
stories, editorials and features constantly
arouse readers to action. SO DOES THE
ADVERTISING.
Newspaper advertising differs from many
other kinds of advertising because it is
wanted. It is looked upon as news and
read with as much interest. But people
not only look for advertising in the news
paperthey ACT upon it. They BUY
from it.
That's why advertisers, year after year,
spend more money in daily newspapers
than they do in radio, television, maga
zines and outdoor COMBINED.
Over 58,000,000 newspapers are bought
daily, providing complete news, features,
information and advertising. If it's
ACTION you want ACTION you'll get
from your advertising in the ACTION
medium, the daily newspaper.

Ever meet a dreamer?
F rills instead of fundamentals are what interest him.
In his future job he dreams of a carpeted office, a re
Mjunding title, an acre of polished mahogany to sit
lieliind. Wide-awake men, on the other hand, look fir?t
of all for fundamentals sound training, advancement
opportunity, challenging work, professional associates,
good pay. The frills will follow.
The Cell Telephone Companies offer such career
fundamentals to wide-awake, ambitious young men major
ing in the arts, the sciences, business or engineering.
Why not make arrangements to talk with the Bell System
interviewer when he visits your campus? And for mora
information about the careers these companies offer,
read the Bell Telephone booklet on file in your Place
