THE NEBRASKAN
Husker Team
Takes Road
For Missouri
Nebraska's basketball team de
parts at 4:15 today for Columbia,
Mo. and a Saturday night tilt
with the Tigers of the University
of Missouri.
Still smarting from their 36-32
defeat at the hands of the Tigers
at the coliseum last Saturday, the
Huskers will be after their second
conference victory, while the Mis
sourians will be battling to retain
their newly won hold on third
place place, in league standings.
The Tigers, with a 3-3 conference
record, will be slight favorites to
beat the Huskers in the Saturday
night game, the second meeting
of the two clubs in the last two
weeks.
Lew Names Squad.
Coach Ad Uewandowski named
a ten man traveling squad for the
jaunt, which will find the'Scarlel
traveling northward after the
Missouri game for their Monday
night clash with Iowa State.
Picked to make the trip are Al
Aitman, Tom Dworak, Elza Kuhl
man, Pat Rooney, Moirie Gaiter,
Al Kirlin, Bob Tangeman, Doug
Nelson, Russ Leger and Buzz
Hollins.
The traveling squad will arrive
in Columbia at 2 Saturday after
noon, journey northward to Ames
after the game Saturday night,
and return to Lincoln at 4 Tues

UN Trackmen
Hold Try-outs
On Saturday
Husker trackmen will pa.s in
review for Coach Ed Weir on the
indoor track under the East Sta
dium Saturday afternoon, will)
time-trials scheduled for all boys
in all events.
Weir will watch the perforin
ances of Dean Kratz. quarter-,
miler, and Norval Barker, hurd-j
ler, with especial interest, for h
is counting on these men to bear
the burden of Husker point get
ting in the coming indoor season.
Kratz, who will run the 880 in
addition to his quarter mile spe
cialty, has a 53.2 quarter to his
credit already this year and will
be out to lower that mark Satur
day. Barker, who turned in u.
flight of 60-yard high hurdles in
8.1 in 9 recent workout, has
shown exceptional promise and is
expected to turn in good times in
both highs and lows in Saturday'
trials.
Treece, Hollin Promising.
Ted Treece. another hurdler, and
Buzz Hollins. ehot-putter, have
also shown promise in recent
work-outs, and Weir will be
watching their trials closely Sat
urday. Hollins' progress with the
shot has been slowed by the fact
that he is a starter on the Husker
cage squad and must queze both
track and basketball work-outs in
to his daily schedule.
Loss of Lavern Curry, quarter
miler, and Jim "Tex" Wanv-r. mile
prospect, weakens the Husker
squad. Curry sprained an ankle
while playing basketball and has
been forced to miss recent prac
tice sessions, while Warner is
dropping from school in expecta
tion of an early Army call.

iviilt,
Harold W. Andersen
Track Coach Kl Weir is having real diH'icully iisseiiililiii";
a squad capable of making a rnol showing in iiilcrcollefriale
competition. The cinder squad lurnout lias been small, and most
of the hoys who have reported are lacking in experience. Dean
Kratz. a certain point-getter in the 440 and SSO. is the only
returning letterman aird the only hoy who has tasted collegiate
competition.
The state of Iowa looms uniisuallv blight on the basket
ball map this year, with two of the nation's leading teams in
the Cyclones of Iowa State and the llawkeves of the University
of Iowa. The Hawks are undefeated thus far and hold undis
puted possession of first place in the liig Ten conference. Led
by Dave Danner and Dick Ives, they have shattered several
conierence scoring marks ana rni lair to urcait scM'iai more
before the season's end.
The Cyclones, heavily spiked with Naval trainees, are
leading the Big Six loop race with a record of five wins and
no defeats. With rice Brookfield in the driver's seat, the Iowa
Staters have also rolled up an impressive record in play out
side the conference.
Most surprising dub in the Big Six cage race to date lias
been the Missouri Tigers. Slated in pie-season pickings to bat
tle Nebraska and Kansas State for the conference cellar, the
Missourians now have a firm hold on third place and seem
destined to. retain their first division berth if they continue at
I heir present pace
