Nebraska has a chance tomorrow night to improve on
its 4-7 record in the Big Eight at the expense of the Okla
homa Sooners.
Oklahoma shows only a 3-9 Big Eight basketball record.
That figure, however, is quite misleading.
With only 10 more points added to its scoring total,
the Sooners could be 7-5 instead of reigning in last place.
OU has lost to Colorado and by one and two points, to
Iowa State by one and to Kansas State by two. That's just
unlucky if you go by odds.
And now for Oklahoma to escape the cellar practically
means winning Saturday and its finale with first-place Okla
homa State. The Cowboys whipped OU last Tuesday to
stay on top.
Oklahoma plays that same run-pump-press game, com
mon to Nebraska lately. Forwards James Gatewood (6-5)
and Bill Whitlock (6-3) have been doing much of the scoring
with help from 6-2. guard Mike Rooney and 5-10 Tom Flood.
Center Dave Barret has come through with double figure
scoring lately also.
The Sooners stopped NU, 89-82, at Norman early in
the Big Eight race.
Nebraska, 4-7 in the league, will be scrambling to gain
a tie for fifth with Iowa State, idle this week, and trying
to stay away from seventh place. Kansas State dwells
there now and hoats Colorado Saturday.
The Huskers held on to sixth last Tuesday, though
losing to Kansas 71-62, at Lawrence. NU played one
of its better contests with 45 shooting in the field and
unerring ball handling, but was hurt by counting only 46
of the free throw tries.
The loss tripped the Cornhusker record to 9-13 for the
season, already two wins ahead of last year's 7-18.
Monday Nebraska travels to Missouri a 92-74 conqueror
in the Coliseum two weeks ago. Little (5-10) Gary Garner
hit 29 points in that one.
MU. which beat third-place Colorado Monday, is in
fourth place with a 5-5 record and will rest this weekend.

Nebraska's freshman basketball team closes out regu
lar season competition against Ft. Riley (Kan.) Saturday,
preceding the Oklahoma-Nebraska varsity game in t h e
Coliseum.
The frosh tipoff is 5:30 p.m.
The yearlings own only a 34 recording so far, but
three of those losses (twice to Kansas State and once to
Iowa State) have come by two points or less. The other
defeat was to the Cyclones. 82-75.
The Huskers came within a second of revenging that
one last Saturday. Shooting 54 from the field, the frosh
carried the lead all the way until Iowa State's Dave Hart
man dropped a layup at the buzzer for an 81-80 victory.
Ft. Riley, a service team, boasts several former col
lege players which will give NU a test against experience.
Ft. Riley will take on Nebraska Wesleyan's frosh the night
before.
Husker Coach Glenn Potter will probably go with his
usual lineup of Stuart Lantz and Jim Damm at guards,
Kurt Lauer at center, and Tom Eaack and Dick Davidson
at the forwards.

Tight Contests Are Forecast
For Big Eight Track Meet
By Peggy Speece
"Good grief, Charlie
Brown!"
Nebraska's Charlie Greene
didn't say that but he might
very well be thinking it as
the Missouri sprinter with the
comic strip name will form
Greene's most formidable op
position at the Big Eight in
door track championships in
Kansas City this weekend.
Greene, the Bearded wonder
of the Nebraska track squad,
USB iUl UCU 111 WIG
of 6.1 seconds for the 60-yard
dash, but his opponent has
demonstrated amazing con
sistency in wrapping up the
race in 6.2 seconds four con
secutive weeks. Greene ran
6.2 in his only other compe
titive race of the short indoor
campaign.
Greene sat out last week's
triangular with Wyoming and
Iowa State with the flu.
Adding excitement to the
race will be three more 6.2
runners, Bob Hanson of Kan
sas, the Huskers' Lynn Head
ley, and Oklahoma's James
Jackson.
In addition to the 60-yard
dash, Nebraska should pick
ud valuable ooints in the bar
rier events. Colorado's J i m
Miller, the powerful hurdler
with the build of a halfback,
currently leads the charts in
the low hurdles race with a
6.7 clocking. And that comic
strin fellow. Charlie Brown.
is right behind him with a
6.8. All tied up on the chart
at 6.9 are Nebraska's Ray
Harvev. KU's Hanson, and
Ron Peters of Missouri.
The 60-yard high hurdles
race could be as exciting as
the dash. Three men current
ly hold the leading time of
7.4. Husker Preston Love, Bill
Chambers from Kansas and
Mike Hewitt of Oklahoma
should give each other quite
a race.
And that 440-yard dash is
going to have Nebraska fans
on the edge of their seats.
Although two sophs, Steve
Carson (48.4) of ISU and Bill
Calhoun (48.6) of Oklahoma
have posted better times than
Nebraska's Dave Crook (49.1),
Nebraskans recall how the tall
Husker got boxed in on the
first lap of last year's race.
They know the junior runner
wants to redeem himself.
Soph Dennis Walker edges
into the form chart tied for
fourth place with a 50.1 with
Missouri's Peetrs.
Captain Dick Strand owns
the second best clocking in
Husker Wrestlers
Grapple Against
ISU Cyclones
After taking a week off to
help with the Nebraska State
High School mat meet, the
Husker wrestlers resume ac
tion Saturday at home.
Iowa State's number two
ranking grapplers will pro
vide stiff opposition despite
the fact that their Lincoln
bound crew comes in as the
lower half of a split squad.
The bulk of the Cyclone's
main forces appear at Kansas
the same day.
These back-up boys have
given ISU the depth needed
to bring it four victories over
members of last year's top
twenty and run the current
Cyclone winning string to
thirty-eight meets.
Leading the way for the
mat power from Ames will
be 123 pound Ernie Gillum
and 130 pound Rich Leicht
man. Each has four victories,
boosting the total number
amassed by the personnel
coming to Lincoln to eleven.
Strengthened by the addi
tion of two football guards,
Lynn Senkbeil and La Verne
Allers, Nebraska will be seek
ing triumph number five in
the current campaign.
Out to fatten his team lead
ing victory total and priming
for the up-coming Big Eight
meet is heavyweight Carel
Stitch. Rick AHgood promises
to give Leidhtman a strong
challenge, and another spirit
ed performance is expected
from young Richie Kerr.
The duel is to be held im
mediately following the Okla
homa Nebraska basketball
clash. University officials are
hoping many fans will plan to
stick around and enjoy the
action.

the 600 going into the b i g
meet. Strand is more than
likely to be a pace setter in
the race which could be dom
inated by Oklahoma State's
strong middle distance corps.
Nebraska has no leaders in
the 880-yard, 1,000-yard, or
mile runs a dearth that could
hurt the Scarlet and Cream
seriously. These races are
dominated by the names of
O-State's Tom Von Ruden and
Missouri's high-flying Robin
Lingle.
The two-mile run, a gruel
ing 22 laps around the Muni
cipal Auditorium's board
tr?ck, is lead by Conrad
Nightengale of Kansas State
with a 9:16.2 time. Husker
senior Larry Toothaker edges
into fifth place on the chart
with 9:31.2.
The mile relay is headed
by a fleet Oklahoma State
crew with a time of 3:16.4.
Although Nebraska ranks last
in the event, the Huskers have
defeated Iowa State's team
which owns the second best
mark.

Saturday will be the final

Nebraska's hurdle-dash pow

IM Formation
By Bob Gibson
The Intramural basketball
tournament forges ahead and
the high hopes of many a
team dribble down the drain.
The hopes of the Beta Theta
Pi "A" team are traveling the
city's sewers today. The Phi
Kappa Psi monster mashed
on them to the rather dubious
score of 69-27. The Beta's
leaped out to a first quarter
deficit of 11 points, and put
together a first rate disjoint
ed effort in the second quar
ter to slip behind 17 points
at half. This wasn't all the
Betas' had to offer, however,
as the second halt was even
more one-sided.
Thev consistentlv worked
the ball for bad shots and
missed the vast majority of
these, to tiile ud eight points
in the third quarter. In the
fourth quarter Beta snowed
them no mercy as they stub
bornly refused to get back on
defense against the fast
break, forcing the Phi rsi s
to take many easy layups
against their will. The end
result showed m the score-
book as John Jepson scored
20 noints for the Phi Psi's
while Jerry Webb scored 18.
Rill Marshall scored 1Z, ana
T.nrrv Wachholtz scored 10.
The Beta's defense seemed to
tighten near the end as the
Phi Psi's didn't score in the
last 45 seconds.
Alnha Gamma SiHma iust
pulled out a win over Tri
angle 36-35. A six point ad
vantage in the third quarter
erased Triangle's five point
half time advantage. AGS
then played them even ball
for the victory. Jonn rawer
led Alpha Gamma Sigma with
19 points and Bob Strayer
scored 14 for rnangie.
Pharmarv used an even
attack and a Hood de
fense to smother Delta Theta
Phi 47-13. If Delta Theta Phi
scoring was sparce through
out most of the game it was
entirely nonexistent in the sec
ond quarter when they
couldn't manage any points.
Gary Street led Pharmacy
with 16 points.
Kappa Sigma "B" and Sig
ma Phi Epsilon "B" both dis
played good offensive power
ith the Kappa bigs snowing
enough to come out on the
top of a 55-43 score. Kappa
-if
cfMtorwfknn
Sigma made their burs? in the
second half after being up on
ly one point at half. Mike
Ragen paced the Kappa Sigs
in the high scoring tilt with
28 points followed by Doug
Miller's 10. Roger Beverage
scored 15 points for the Sig
Eps but lacked the team sup
port threat the Kappa Sigs
gave Ragen.
Phi Delta Theta "B" scored
a forfeit win over the Delta
Tau Delta "B" team to ad
vance a rung in the tourna
ment. Larry Swanson, Ray Price,
and Jere Kern each scored 11
points for Selleck to aid their
56-43 win over Fairfield. Fair
field found the mark early
and kept Selleck's scoring
down totake a four point ad
vantage'at the end of the first
quarter before Selleck started
their move. Selleck took a one
point lead at the half and
widened it to six after three
quarters. They got hot in the
fourth quarter to the tune of
22 points and the final margin
of thirteen points. Jack Ocht
man was the leading scorer
for Fairfield with 14 points.
Smith jumped out to a first
half lead of seven points on
the strength of John Yokel's
14 first half points, and held
on to take a 46-42 win over
Kiessalbach. Dan Leader
scored 11 points and Clint
Mager scored 12 as they
teamed together in Kiessal
bach's comeback effort. It
wasn't enough even though
Yokel could only manage two
points in the second half for
a total of 16 for the game.
