In Semifinals
Seventeen men remain in the
running for the 11 university
wrestling championships. Fifteen
matches were held in the semi
final round Monday, December 9,
and one more bout must be held
between Andy Marinkovich and
George Albin to decide who win
face Ray Staroska in trie ioo
pound finals.
.lark Barrett, former all city
champ for three years, was forced
to withdraw from the tournament
due to injuries suffered in an au
tomobile accident. The finals will
be held December 17, during; the
half time of the varsity basket
ball game.
Keith Manning pinned Francis
Mandula in a rough brawl and
earned the dubious privilege of
facing Mike DiBiase in the heavy
weight finals. Ken Brown con
tinued his drive for the 121 pound
title by upsetting Howard Crom
4-3.
Overtime Bout.
Bob Poe ran into a package of
dynamite when he tangled with
Ralnh Waerner. but managed to
salvage a 1-0 decision in an over
time. Sam Kais turned on tne
KtMm and trimmed Hal Haldeman
to the tune of 6-0 and looks like
a good bet in the 145-pound di
vision. '
The 165-pound class continued
to steal the show as Marshall
Boker and Chick Thome pinned
their oDDonents with identical
holds to advance into the finals.
Boker threw Fred Turner in 1:59
and Thome outlasted crafty
Charles Roberts to win in 5:50.
Both men have won all their
matches by falls and when they
clash in the finals anything could
happen.

WARNING TO NU FOES Shots like these by Don McArthur may
play a valuable part in the Nebraska basketball successes from now
on. The 6-5 player gave indication of becoming a real scoring
threat with his performance against Drake Monday night. This shot
against the Bulldogs failed to connect, but the Scarlet eager was
able to grab 14 points during the action. The Bulldog's big center,
John Pritchard, hurried McArthur on this effort.
