Sid Held, Engleman 24 apiece (Continued from page 1.) was an outstanding bulwark In level-heading the Kansans at times in the heat of the contest. In ad dition, Allen scored 16 points. Bob Allen shines. "Phog Junior" made an equal number of points each half eight and was the pivot-man on the greater share of the Jay plays which usually saw Engleman fi nally pour the ball thru the meshes. But then Nebraska was not lay ing back all of this time. The Huskers started slow, rallied, crept ahead, and then held the Jays to a 27-23 half time margin. After the intermission, the Kan sans went to work again and built up an advantage that saw the Jays leading by 11 points with hine minutes remaining with the score at 50-39. Huskers wake up. Then the Huskers went on a scoring orgy of their own that saw them almost duplicate the finish which they were triumphant in last week over Oklahoma, by com ing back to tie the game up at 52 all only to let the lead slip away for a last time. During those last hectic seconds which saw the Huskers come from behind, the 6,500 people were standing on their feet and shout ing above the official's whistle. Sid Held, Don Fitz, and Hart mann Goetze all contributed valu able baskets to bring the count at 52-all. With a minute to go, Engle man dribbled in for a setup. Fouls are close. Allen fouled Held with 40 sec onds remaining but capitalized on only one of the free tosses. Five seconds later, Don Fitz fouled Al len which made it the full quota for Don. Phog Junior calmly slipped the gratis flip thru the hoop. In the final 10 seconds, Goetze and Held both made fouls on the Jays, but the latter took the ball each time on a throw-in from out-of-bounds and controlled the sphere until the final gun. - Retracking the account of the battle, Howard Engleman and Bob Allen stood head and shoulders above their teammates In play. For Nebraska, Junior Letterman Pid Held stole the show. Lanky Sid dropped 24 points -the same as Engleman thcu the hoops to take scoring honors for the Husk ers.

Dark Horse, last year's champ, which has really never re motely approached the role of dark horse, meets Angels who can't be called angels, in view of the beatings they have been hand ing the opposition this year. Typical of the play of these teams were the semi-finals, where in the socalled Angels didn't give the Mad Russians a show. The score was 23-13, with the seraphs taking the lead at the start and never relinquishing it. . Dark Horse had a little trouble in its game with Pioneer Co-op. The teams battled evenly through the first half, to end that period wtih the score at 4-all. Dark Horse started to pull away in the second half, but a late rally pulled the Co-op back up and when the final whistle blew the count was knotted at 13 each. At this stage. Dark Horse had enough and turned on the heat to win going away by 22-15. The Monday night game will 'pit a well-balanced, experienced Dark Horse quint, coordinated by several years play together, against the star-studded Angel lineup. Men like Al Canfield, Dean Jackson, and Wayne Kellogg will be thrown into the breach to match shots with the balance power and team work of the in cumbent champs. The game is not expected finally to settle the age-old question of the relative merits of individual brilliance and coordinated team play, but the obvious strength of both lineups should make a close game and one well worth seeing.
