Top Sooners 67-63
Cagers Win Wierd-
Nebraska s erratic Corn
huskers outlasted a stubborn
Oklahoma basketball crew
Saturday in a real wild one
The score was 67-63.
The game was exemplified
by roudincss, as almost every
one got in the act, including
a referee who was lambasted
by Willie Campbell, who, not
hearing the playstopping
whistle, upended the man in
the striped shirt and an Okla
homa player as well.
This act was typical of the
Huskers s play at the coll
seum. The Scarlet and Cream
blew an eleven point halftime
lead with only nine minutes
of the second stanza gone.
Oklahoma staged their
comeback with the help of an
unusual rash of three-point
plays. Once during the Soon
er surge, the boys from Nor
man took the ball down the
court, and the next time Ne
braska touched the ball, the
Okie deficit was five points
less. Oklahoma scored and
was fouled on the play send
ing them the free throw line;
the shot was missed, Okla
homa got the rebound, scored,
and was again fouled in the
act of shooting. This time
the free throw opportunity
was capitalized upon.
Grant Simmons was again
the high scorer for the Cipri
ano crew as he popped in sev
en fielders and five free
throws for nineteen points.
He was aided in his scoring
effort by the Sooner's Bill
Whitlock who inadvertently
tipped in a Nebraska fielder.
Simmons as game captain
was awarded credit for the
two-pointer.
Fred Hare came off the
bench to connect for seven
teen points. He hit a couple
crucial buckets in the waning
minutes of the game, as he
and Simmons pulled the game
Swimmers
The Husker swim team
showed more depth than
Kansas State to take a 55-40
victory in Saturday's dual.
Nebraska took two out of
the first three places in all of
the individual events except
diving, and won the 400 yard
medley while Kansas won the
400 yard freestyle to split the
relay events.
Tom Nickerson and Taylor
Withrow, both juniors, placed
one-two in the 200 yard free
style for Nebraska. Nicker
son's winning time was 1:58.7.
Huskers Ron Gabrielson
and Ray Barber finished sec
ond and third in the 50 yard
freestyle behind K-State's
Tom Hanlon who won it in
24 seconds flat.
Bob Duenkel of Kansas
State edged out Nebraska's
Frank brothers, Dave and
Dick, to win the 20,000,000
yard individual medley in 2
minutes 10.5 seconds.
The Husker's only place in
diving as Bob Gleisburg's
third place behind Bill Ratliff
and Trip Shawver of Kansas
State.
Jon Burchill won the 200
yard butterfly in the very
good time of 2 minutes 9.8
seconds. Husker Tom Cham
bers was second with Matt
Butler of K-State taking
tmrd.

ISU's All-Victorious
Wrestling Squad Pins
Defeat On Nebraska
By Jim Pearse
The closer it came to the
bewitching hour of mid
night, the closer Nebraska
came to pinning defeat on
Iowa State's all-conquering
wrestling team.
Following Uie trend of the
test, the Husker's mat team
got off to a slow start.
Ernie Gillum decisioned
NU's Dan Isman in the 123
pound bracket, 9-2. Nebras
kan Rich Allgood then
chased undefeated Rich
Lciehtman to a 2-2 draw in
the 137 pound division.
Scrappy Richie Kerr
picked up the spark pro
vided by Allgood and gave
Dave Saddler a rough go
before being nipped 5-3 at
the 147 pound level. This
one quickened the tempo of
the evening and spirited
many of those fans who had
lingered on into picking up
where they had left off in
cheering on the hoopster.
ISU's Omer Frank held
on in the 157 pound class
to edge by Husker Dale
Huff 3-2.
The referee found the left
over cat-calls nonetheless
enthusiastic as 167 pound
ers, Rick Blakley and Ken
Fox dueled in the most
hotly contested match on
the card. Fox was tipped
4-3.
At this point Nebraska be
gan to escape from ISU's
winning ways and pick up
numerous points that near

Cornhuskers Win
Only Two Events
In Big Eight Meet
By Peggy Spcece
There were two Nebraskans
in the winners circle but Mis
souri ran away with the 37th
annual Big Eight Indoor
Track Meet held in Kansas
City this past weekend.
Charlie Green's winning 6.1
effort in the 60-yard dash was
termed as a "surprise" by the
Kansas City newspapers but
it came as little surprise to
Nebraska fans who remember
the little speedster's pushing
Bob Hayes to a world s record
last year.
Greene was called for false
starting In the race. On t h e
second gun he got a very slow
start out of the blocks but
more than recovered by half
way through the race.
The photo of the finish had
to be studied intently to deter
mine the next three places
with Lynn Hadley of the
Huskers being declared the
second place finisher. Mis
souri's highly touted Charlie
Brown was fourth.
Senior Jim Wendt pulled a
big upset in winning the 880.
The Wisconsin product over
hauled the expected winner,
Tom Von Ruden of Oklahoma
State, just before the final
curve and kept his first place
position.
The win was a great person
al triumph for Wendt. He
placed fourth in the race as a
sophomore two years ago. Last
year, hampered by knee
trouble that later was re
medied with an operation.
Wendt failed to qualify for the
finals. Wendt's winning time
this year was 1:53.3, anew
school record.
Nebraska took third in the
team standings. Missouri's
Tigers roared to a first nlace
finish with 52 points, followed
by Kansas with 47. Nebraska
had 26, edging into the chart
just ahead of Oklahoma State
who had 25 points.
Co-Captain Robin Lingle of
Mizzou lead his team with a
double victory in the mile
and 1.000 yard runs. Lingle
ran the mile in 4:08.9, winning

Letter To Sports Editor
The sports staff received
this letter and another one
basically the same in content
but less printable. The subject
matter it refers to is the cov
erage of the intramural
games
We are handicapped initial-
Uy by the lack of manpower
w permii personal coverage
ot each intramural game, and
we can report in depth only
those we see.
we would welcome any
team's own story of its
games. They are requested to
drop them into the Daily Ne
Draskan Office.
Any time a story is signed
or a byline used, we feel that
certain subjectivity is justi
fied. The intramural stories
referred to in the letter were
written intentionally with a
humorous aspect not to show
favoritism, but to add life to
an otherwise routine writing
chore
I had entertained hopes that
at last the Daily Nebraskan
had acquired a sports editor
that could pump gome en
thusiasm into Nebraska Ath
letics, both varsity and Intra
mural and then you allowed
biased garbage such ag the
enclosed clipping to enter the
sports page. Continuation of
the same would allow the en
thusiasm of many readers to
wane considerably. In fact
they might even become
irate. Remember that an
EDITOR does just that In his
attempts to treat the news
factually and fosters his own
views in his column, not in
the news.

off a 2.08.8 1,000 for a new Big
Eight record. The old record
was 2.11.6 set by Cliff Cush
man of Kansas in 1959 and
tied by Lingle last year.
The Tigers also won ih:
high jump, the shot put, the
broad jump, and the 60-yard
high hurdles.
The hurdles spelled bad
luck for the Huskers. Preston
Love qualified in both the
highs and lows but in running
the finals of the highs, pulled
a muscle just before the last
hurdle. He was then forced
to scratch from the lows.
Love tumbled to the floor just
