Experience
Nebraska's green quintet will
start its 1943-44 campaign tonight
when it tackles the University of
Iowa at Iowa City. The Hawk
eyea also have an "unknown
quantity'' team, with no veterans
back, so the game wilL he an in
dication of what to expect from
both teams.
The Hunkers left j-esterday aft
ernoon at 4 f'jr a five day trip,
whi. x will include games . with
De Paul and Minnesota, besides
the Iowa contest. Assistant Coach
Chili Armstrong took charge of
the team in the absence of "Ad"

By Rex Mitchell
Late Thursday eve, ten players
boarded the train for Iowa City,
la., where they will make their
1943 basketball debut against th
Iowa Mawkeyea, lYiday night Al
tho young and inexperienced, they
are HUSKERS. When they step
out on that floor, Ftiday night, all
of Nebraska will be behind them.
Iowa will play one of the gamest
teams ever put out by Nebraska
university.
With only ten days f grueling
practice, Coach "Lew" Lewandow
ski has not had ample time to
round out and polish these boys
to the degree of a typical Corn-j
husker team. It was extremely dif
ficult for "Lew" to pick hi travel
ing squad for this trip, for fear
of disappointing several promising
candidates. However, he stated,
that by the time he came back
he would know whether a mistake
had been made.
Much hope haa been placed on
Don Barry, 6' 4" Husker mainstay,
who, before attending the univer
sity, was all state at the pivot
post for Norfolk, Nebraska.
George Lucas, a sharpshooter from
Illinois, will be the backbone of
the Husker defense. Other first
team berths go to Tommy Dworak,
flashy forward from Lincoln, Al
len Artman, a minor letterman
heldovcr from last year, and Gus
Eager, also from Jnooln. Others
making the trip are Eldon Potter.
Morris Gaiter, Patrick Rooney,
Elza Kuhlman, and Melvin Sherman.
Conference Team
Includes Former
Freshman, Hayes
Tom Hayes, freshman at the
univeisity last yrar, was recently
nimed to the All-Rocky Mountain
football team, after his outstand
ing vork with the Colorado Col
lege football squad this fall. Tom
is from Hastings, played on the
freshman learn here last year and
was a member of Phi Gamma
Delta fraternity.
He is now stationed at Colorado
College with the naval V-12 unit.
Sports. writers have said that Tom
and All-American Paul Briggs
were the outstanding defensive
players on the conference field
this fall.
The Towi Hawkeves also com
prised of young inexperienced
players will be a good match for
the Huskers. The Huskers are
given a alight edge over the Hawk-
eyes.
After the Iowa game the squad
will meet DePaul university in the
finale of a doubleheader, at Chi
cago. DePaul is one of those teams
whose previous records and return
of seasoned players martc mem
as ttrona favarites over the Husk
ers. However, the Huskers are al
ways at their best wnen maicnea
against a superior team.

Nebraska will take to the road
again to travel to Minneapolis to
meet the University or Minnesota
Monday night. The Gophers are
minus all of their last year's let
termen, but are reported to have
two good ball players in Bill
Muske and Duane Baglien.
Meet a Husker
. Don "Razz" Barry is another
fine gift to the Comhuskers from
Norfolk, Neb. At the present
time, he is spending a good deal
of his time on the maples where
he is very much at home.
"Razz" stands 6 feet 3 inches
and has plenty of basketball ex
perience to his credit. In his
senior year at Norfolk high he
was a unanimous choice for all
state honors in basketball. He
also played a year at Kemper
Military academy where he was
high-point man for the team.
Besides being a fine athlete,
Don is a top-notch personality
on the campus. .Undoubtedly,
he i one of the most likeable
fellows we have had the privi
lege to meet. We understand
that his hobbies are steeping
and driving up ta Norfolk on
week ends.
"Rase" has a big job to fill this
season as he is slated to handle
the pivot spot for the Cornhusker
five. We feel certain that the
tall, good-natured kid will coma
thru in fine style and we'll see
plenty of him in the future. Un
til then, good luck to a fine
Husker.
