THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Piiflesited Hustlers
Husker basketball Coach Harry Good will take the
wraps off his 1946-47 squad tonight when the Scarlet hoop
sters meet the University of South Dakota Coyotes on the
Coliseum court at 8 p. m.
The Nebraska mentor will not be the only newcomer
around when tipoff time comes,
for only one member of probable
NU starting lineup has seen serv
ice in Husker cage liveries be
fore. Joe Brown, forward, is a
letterman back from last seasons
team which won seven and lost
13 games.
Teaming with the sharp-shooting
Brown, who paced the Ne
braska quintet in scoring, will pe
Claude Retherford, 6 foot 2 inch
French Lick, Indiana, native who
has taken over the other forward
post.
Former Navy Ace.
Middle man on the Scarlet crew
will be Rodney Cox, former Lin
coln high stalwart who poured in
over 400 points while playing with
the fast St. Mary's Pre-flight team
in 1945-46. The Husker center
stands 6 feet 24 inches tall.
Don McArthur has gained one
of the guard spots, coming out on
top after a nip and tuck scrap
with Ken Anderson of Creston,
Iowa. Big Don at 6 feet 5 is the
tallest man on the squad, and he
adds to his height with plenty of
spring during the scramble for re
bounds. A eager who won All American
honorable mention will be run
ning: at the other guard slot. Joe
Leisel, former Creighton star, will
handle the post.
Behind these five. Good has
named Matt Keating and Paul
Shields as second string forwards,
Waldo Winter at center and Kan
Anderson and Jim Sandstedt at
guards. A total of 20 Husker play
ers will be in suit for the con
test, the first c' the season for
both outfits.
Nebraska bounced the Sodaks
52-29 last year when the two
clubs met on December 11 in Lin
coln. From all indications, this year's
Coyote squad is not too well for
tified with tall men. A look at
the Sodak roster shows that the
tallest player Coach Rube Hoy is
bringing to Lincoln is Guard Harry
Carleton who is 6 feet 3 inches
tall.
Back Again.
Included in the South Dakota!
