Iowa State Wins
In 58-35 Tilt
Suffering their second defeat
within three days, Nebraska's cag
ers dropped a, one-sided 58-35 deci
sion to the league-leading Iowa
State Cyclones at Ames Monday
night.
The Huskers, beaten 44-29 by
Missouri at Columbia Saturday
night, never had a chance against
the taller, more experienced Iowa
Staters, who jumped off to a 13-0
lead in the first ten minutes of
play. Coach Louis Menze started
substituting soon after this, but
the Cyclone score mounted to 36-9
halftime margin.
With no Iowa State regulars
playing in the second half, the
Scarlet outscored the Cyclones, 26
22, but the final gun found the
Huskers buried under a 58-35 defi
cit. " Artman, Dworak Missing.
Nebraska was weakened by the
absence of Al Artman and Tom
Dworak, starting forwards, both of
whom returned to Lincoln from
Columbia after the Missouri game
Saturday night. Artman, suffering
from an infection developing from
a floor-burn, spent Saturday in a
hospital in Columbia and saw no
action against the Tigers. Dworak,
naval dent student, was forced to
return to Lincoln because of a 48
hour pass restriction.
Elza Kuhlman and Morrie Gai
ter shared scoring honors for the
Huskers with 8 points apiece. Roy
Ewald, substitute forward, led the
Cyclones with 16 points, while
Price Brookfield racked up 11.

Husker trackmen will eret their firt taste of indoor coin
petition Saturday when they cl.ish wit. Kansas University
and Kansas State in a triunsrulrtr meet on tlie indoor track
under tlie East Stadium. With last Saturday's time-trials be
hind them, the Huskers are spending this week's practice
sessions in final polishinsr for Saturday's meet.
The triangular competition should give a good line of
what to expect from the three clubs in the annual Big- Six
indoor meet, scheduled for Kansas City on Saturday, Feb
ruary 26. With a smashing- 67 37 victory over Missouri's Ti-p-m-s
already to their credit, the Jayhawks of K. U. look to be
the logical choice for the favorite's role next Saturday. Kan-
sas gTabbed all but two firsts in their meet with the ligers
and have a strong-, well-balanced aggregation.
