THURSDAY, MAY IT, 1939 DAILY NEBKASKAN THREE State Mg Ed baselbaBD meet perns E?eds beat Whites in 72-13 tussle as cage drills end Pitcaithley tallies twenty-two counters Averaging better than two points a minute in the 32 minute encounter last night, a versatile Red basketball squad trounced their white shirted opponents 72 to 13 in the final game of the spring practice season. The Whites took an early one point lead after Al Randall col lected his only foul of the evening on John Hay, but the Reds started hitting the hoop here to go into a lead they kept increasing all through the game. The Reds led 19 to 3 at the end of the first eight minute period and had stretched it to 29 to 7 at the half. In the third quarter the Reds held their opponents to exactly 0 points as they rolled up a 44 to 7 score. From here on the Red of fense bombarded the basket with a deluge of shots that soon gar nered 72 points on the score sheet as the final whistle blew. Again, aa Monday night, it was Harry Pitcaithley that led the Red attack gaining 14 points in the first quarter before being relieved by Irvin Yaffe, and then adding 8 points to it in the last half to make a total of 22 counters. Closely tailing him was frosh Hartmann Goetze with 13 tallies and tall Al Randall with 9 points all garnered in the last half. Coach Browne started his usual combinations with Harry Pitcaith ley nad Hartmann Goetze, for wards; Al Randall, center; Sid Held and Don Fitz, guards on the Red quintet. Starters on the white squad were John Hay and Don Schulz, forwards; Bob Therien, center; Leonard Van Buskirk and Bruce Duncan, guards.
