After one showing, this year's
Nebraska basketball team appears
to be a well balanced aggregation
as far as the first five is con
cerned. Every man on the starting
lineup is a potential scoring
threat and the quintet displayed
some expert passing and rugged
defensive work against the sor
rowful Sodaks.
Just how far the Huskers can
get with a top notch first five is
another matter. This year every
major college in the land is
flooded with bright prospects, and
a flashy starting lineup can be
displayed by many teams.
The reserves will tell the story,
Whether or not the strength be
hind Claude Retherford, Joe
Brown, Rodney Cox, Joe Loisel
and Don McArthur will be enough
to carry the NU crew through a
stiff Big Six campaign remains
to be seen.
In Wednesday's battle the
Husker reserves were none too
smooth. Aside from the scoring of
Al Kirlin there was little to praise
in" the performances of the second,
third and fourth combinations
which Coach Harry Good sent into
the fray; although the third string
unit consisting of Kirlin, Bob
Means, Dale Livingston. Bob
Korte and Paul Shields flashed
Signs of promise .

of All American selections are a
