After dropping a 51 to 27 con-!
test to K. U. at Lawrence Satur
day, Nebraska's Cornhuskcrs came
back strong to push a highly
touted University of Oklahoma
cage squad to the limit before
yielding a grudging 45 to 35 deci
sion at Norman Monday night.
Minus the services of two regu
lar starters and a substitute who
saw service at Lawrence Satur
day night, the Huskers threw a
real scare into the trainee-spiked
Oklahomans, out playing and out
scoring their highly favored rivals
till Al Artman, Scarlet sparkplug,
fouled out early in the last half.
The Huskers were without Tom
Dworak, naval dental student who
was forced to return to Lincoln
Saturday night because of the 48
hour leave restrictions on naval
trainees, and Doug Nelson and
Elza Kuhlman, both of whom
hustled back from Lawrence in
time for Monday classes.
Sooners Lead at Half.
The Scarlet out-scrapped the
Sooners in the early minutes of
the first half, assuming a 9 to 8
lead when big Buzz Hollins tallied
twice from the free-throw line.
Hollins followed with his lone
fielder of the game, a pivot-shot
off thepost, and Al Artman caged
a southpaw hook-shot to send the
Huskers into a 14 to 8 lead.
Allie Paine, high scoring Sooner
captain, and Ken Pryor, frosh star,
then led a scoring spurt which
sent Oklahoma off the floor at the
half with a 20 to 17 lead. Paine
hit with two one-handers .and
Pryor, held to a meager five points
by the tight-guarding of Max
Johns, connected with a two
handed jump shot with five sec
onds left in the half to send th,;
Sooners off with their slim three
point margin.
Artman Fouls Out.
Far from beaten, the Huskers
jumped back into the lead at thej
opening of the second nair, witn
Rooney tallying on a one-hande
and Johns caging a rebound shot
to shoot Nebraska into a 21 to 20
lead. The Sooners knotted the
count of Landon's free throw, but
Hollins dumped in two of his five
charity tosses to give the Scarlet
a 23 to 21 margin. .'
Johns led Husker scoring witn
8 points, followed closely by Art
man with seven tallies. Artman
floor-play was outstanding. Grover
Ramsey, giant center, dumped in
14 points to lead Sooner scorers.
Allie Paine, Sooner defensive star
whom Artman fooled three times
with southpaw hook shots, tallied
13 markers.

K. U. Socks Huskers.
At Lawrence Saturday night,
Nebraska wilted before a scorch
ing K. U. drive in the second half
to drop a 51 to 27 decision to the
Jayhawks.
The game was even in the early
minutes, with the score tied three
times, but the Jayhawks pushed
into a 23 to 15 lead at half-time
K. U.'s pace the second half was
blistering, while the Huskers could
tally but four free throws during
the first 15 minutes of the final
period.
Buzz Hollins lead Scarlet scorers
with eight points, followed by Max
Johns with six. Tops for K. U. was
Charles Moffat, who racked up 13
markers.

For Men-

BY THE SPORTS EDITOR.
The sports department of "The
Nebraskan," not to be outdone by
the University Theater or The Uni
versity Players, hereby issues a
call to all male students who
know the difference between a
double reverse and a pivot-shot
and have passed English 0 or its
equivalent without bribing the
prof.
Don't let yourself be lured into
such bruising, bone-crushing ac
tivities as singing or acting, men.
Be a sports-reporter and work in
the quiet and safety and smoke
filled atmosphere of a real news
paper office.

We had the pleasure of seeing
the Lincoln Air Base Raiders in
action against Company C at the
Coliseum Saturday night, and it
is our considered opinion that the
Raiders are one of the best ag
gregations, civilian or military, to
step on Coliseum boards in recent
years.
Led by Pvt. Reece "Goose"
Tatum and Pvt. Vic Krafft, both
former members of the Harlem
Globe Trotters, the Raiders are a
mighty smooth outfit, one of the
best we've seen in a long, long
time. Tatum, a great crowd pleas
er, was a treat to watch. His
ball handling, shooting, and gen-
J
eral floor play far surpass any
thing seen at the Coliseum this
season. 'The Goose" had the spec
tators gasping in the final min
utes of Saturday night's game as
he toyed with the Company C
boys in an almost unbelievable
exhibition of trick ball handling
and passing.
The Daily Kansan at the Uni
versity of Kansas is going to be
strictly feminine as soon as the
one man on the staff, Bob Bock,
sports editor, leaves to join the
Marines at the end of the cut rent
semester.
