the Huskers their biggest lead of
tthe game, 21-16. Bill Menke,
Schaefer, Paul Armstrong and Bob
Dro went to work from there,
though, and with less than seven
minutes gone in the second half
were ahead 30-23.
Two baskets by Harry Pitcaithley
and Les Livingston's free throw
brought the score up to 28 to 30,
but Armstrong put in two baskets
in a row, and the Hoosiers weren't
in serious trouble from then on
out.
Dro gets sixteen.
Dro, who won high point honors
of the night with eight field goals,
made three buckets in the last
four and a half minutes of play,
to bring the Hoosiers' total up to
49. The Indiana team held on to
the ball well, and the Huskers only
points in the closing minutes com
ing on Pitcaithley a neia goal.
Don Fitz, Jackson high grad,
and game captain for the night,
did not start but got into the
game. He however, was still both
ered from the effects of the flu,
and was not in shape to stand the
pace. The lanky guard's leader
ship and floor play would have
undoubtedly aided the Huskers had
he been in good shape.
Pitcaithley has eleven.
Harry Pitcaithley, another
Jackson high grad, had four field
goals and three free throws to
finish as the high scoring Husker.
Indiana put a smooth passing,
well drilled team on the floor, the
same team which won seventeen
of twenty games last year. Bill
Menke, ace center, got twelve
points for the Hoosiers and For
wards Schaefer ana Armstrong
got nine and ten respectively. Cap
tain Marvin Huffman looked good
while he played, although he went
out early in the second half on four
fouls.
The freshman Greens beat the
Whites in a preliminary game, 38

Selma Hill, Tassels president,

six of the seven Husker football
seniors at half time. Ad Dobson,
