This trio is the nucleus of the 1943 Minnesota cage squad which is currently rated as a
"black horse" in the Big Ten basket race. From left to right they are vet Kenny Exel, guard,
and sophomores Dave Ruliffson and Louie Brewster, forward and guard respectively. The first
of the three is a senior whose presence on the squad should be the hub around which the Gopher
coach will build his resources.
Husker cagers can take heart in a pair of scores that
turned up in Tuesday night's Big Ten play. Illinois, defending
champ, waltzed by Wisconsin, 52-40, to prove they will win the
crown again this year. The Illini toppled Nebraska, 69-27, in
a pre-holiday encounter.
Over at Iowa City, the Hawkeyes trimmed Minnesota, 48-41,
to do much better than they did against Nebraska. The Husker
quint defeated Iowa, 52-43.
Six Lettermen
Report to ISC
Cinder Squad
AMES, Iowa., Jan. 14. Only

George Gast of Osage and Dick
Bliss of Ames won letters last
spring but are engaged in other
winter sports. Gast is a member
of the wrestling team while Bliss

Alpha Tau Omega's club swung

Star Position
AMES, la., Jan. 14. If Ron
Kuebler doesn't get his leg in
shape in a hurry the slender Car
roll forward is going to find all
jobs taken on the Iowa State
basketball team.
Kuebler appears to be reluctant
to trust his charley horse injury
enough to do much more than
support his role as an onlooker at
Cyclone drills. His first real
workout was scheduled for Thurs
day, but Coach Louis Mcnze gave
him lots of running last night in
hopes he would be able to cut loose
with his old time abandon today.
Just what the result will be Menze
would not predict.
The veteran Menze said he
would start the same team against
Nebraska next Monday that
opened the contest against Kan
sas State last week. This would
put Orlyn Feuerbach at center,
Ron Norman and Gene Oulman at
the guards, Reuben Mickelson at
one forward and either Bob Hayes
or Ray Wehde at the other.

Mentor Adolph Lcwandowski's Sc;irlot i-aers will Wp di
rectly from the skillet into the fire lliis week when they leave
today for their top road jaunt of the 1 Six campaign.
Saturday eve will find the Cornhusker cagers matching
shots with Mizzou at Columbia and Monday night is the date
of the Husker-Iowa State battle. If Lew's lads can weather
these two frays, chances are strong that third place in the
league may fall Nebraska way.
Indiana, conqueror over Nebraska by one point, beat Ohio
State by a thirty point margin last week. Minnesota fell by ten;
points to Iowa, ;V2-43, victim of the Huskers in a pre-holiday
match. From this armchair, it appears that the Lewandowski
courtsters are going to redden the pan of more than one pie
campaign prognosticator.
Hank Iba, colorful Oklahoma A. & JUL. cage tutor, refused
to send in a fifth player against Kansas Wednesday even 1
atfer four straight Aggies had been rejected via personals.
Noticed. an interesting Ilusker's theories on sports and the
war in the February Esquire The writer was none other than
Capt. Sam Francis who wrote in connection with the magazine's
Sports Poll. .. ."Sports and athletics during normal times are
essential, but today in a war when all we possess is at stake,
our only aim is how best we can, as Americans, assist in win
ning the war. All coaches, promoters or physical educatidn and
health instructors should be taught the simpler rudiments f
army life and drill, and then let them,, along with their condi
tioning programs assist in the training of our future soldiers
before they are called into active service. Organized athletics
never have and never will condition the many; it is carried n
by the few and enjoyed by the many."
