These defeats sent the Ne braska squad tumbling to fourth place in the loop standings, be hind Missouri, Iowa State and Ok lahoma. Failure to win on the road has kept Coach Harry Good's charges In hot water during: the confer ence campaign. The UN team has trimmed Kansas and Oklahoma, ' the pre -season favorites, in the familiar surroundings of the col iseum, but Missouri, Kansas State and Iowa State have each taken a turn at trouncing the Huskers in games away from Lincoln. : Nebraska has reached the half way mark in league competition, having played every conference rival once. At this stage of the race it looks like Missouri and Ok- Cage Layoff Nebraska basketballers will be out of action until January 31 when the squad will meet Drake at Des Moines. The next home game is February 4 against South Dakota State, and the next Big Six en counter is on February 10 against Iowa State at Lincoln. lahoma are the teams to beat, while Iowa State has risen to the status of a serious contender. Kansas State has slumped after t a terrific start, and along with the Huskers and Kansas is sporting three losses in Big Six competi tion. Big Disappointment. The biggest disappointment has " , been the Kansas Jayhawkers. Coach Phog Allen's perennial champions have failed to win a league game even with Charlie Black, Otto Schnellbacher and Ray Evans in the lineup. Coach Wilbur "Sparky" Stalcup has molded a steady combination down at Columbia, using veterans Thornton Jenkins and Dan Pippin along with flashy freshman guard, Darrell Lorrance to good advant age. Just what has been keeping the Tigers at the top of the race is hard to figure since the Bengals have only a 13 point margin on ' their opponents in conference games. With Iaul Courty and Gerald f Tucker rounding into form, Okla homa looms as the Tigers' biggest threat. Coach Bruce Drake has steady backcourt - performers in AUie Faine and Jack Landon, plus demon rebounder Dick Reich to keep the Sooners near the top. A midseason showdown is on tap Saturday as Oklahoma enter tains. A win for the Tigers would give them a two game bulge on the field, altho the Iowa State crew could confuse the issue with a victory over Kansas Friday at Lawrence.

Presnell's resignation, effective February 1, means that Husker officials will have to find a back field coach before spring drills get underway. "We naturally regret losing; as valuable a man as Glenn," Coach Bernie Masterson said. "It will be mighty difficult to replace him." Presnell graduated from DeWitt, Nebraska, hich school and nlavpd college ball at Nebraska where he was named All-Missouri Val ley halfback in 1926 and 1927. Following his graduation he played nine years of professional football with, the Ironton Tanks, Portsmouth, Ohio, Spartans and Detroit Lions.
