Browne will start Frank Tall- man, game captain, of Creston, Iowa, and Irv Yaffe of Omaha at forwards; Al Randall of Omaha, center; Sid Held, Lincoln and Hartmann Goetze, St Joseph, Mis souri, guards. Don Fitz is still out and did not make the trip, but Harry Pitcaith ley, who has been on the injured list, may see quite a bit of action altho he won't be on the starting lineup. Others making the trip are Bob Therien, Lincoln; Les Livingston, Hastings; John Hay, Lincoln. Sooner lineup. The Sooner's starting lineup will probably be the same as the one which opened against the Huskers here. Jimmy McNatt and Dale Carlile, forwards; Herb Scheffler, center, and Marvin Mesch or Mat Zollner and Marvin Snodgrass, guards. Mesch was recently released from the infirmary after having missed the Kansas State game be cause of the flu, and will probably be out tonight.

Bob Kahler, hurdler and high umper and a letterman, is recov ering from a pulled muscle, and, altho he will probably forego the high jump, will probably get into the hurdles events. Other letter winners are Ray Prochaska and Ed Wibbels, shot putters, and pole vaulter Harold Scott. Leroy Walker, distance runner, is a mi nor award winner from last year. Red Littler, the Mitchell flash will make his debut for the Husk ers, and has his eye on the :52.7 meet record held by Les Panko- nin. The Husker track has been improved, and all performers have been turning in better times than are usually evidenced this early in the year. Nebraska, incidentally. holds every meet record. A feature race will come in the mile between Harold Brooks, star Husker sophomore runner, who recently did a 4:26 mile. He will be facing Ray Harris of KU, sec ond only to John Munski as a miler in the Big Six last year. Brooks, also on the 880 entry list, may also push Bob Morris' mark of 2:02.2. Gridders enter.
