erford has a one point edge on the
K state ace, leading: 97 to 96 in
points scored in conference fames
Coach Harry Good has indicated
that he will string along with his
usual starting lineup. This means
that Claude Retherford and Rod
ney Cox will open at the forward
spots, Dick Schleiger will play at
center and Joe Brown and Bob
Cerv will hold down the guard
positions.
Cerv Back
Cerv returns to the starting
lineup in place of guard Al Kirlin
The Weston ball hawk had been
handicapped with a bad back but
will be able to go against the K
staters Thursday.
The Wildcats are rejuvenated
following their 48-45 win over
Kansas a week ago and will at
tempt to repeat an early season
victory over the Cornhuskcrs.
Playing at Manhattan thevpurple
cats drubbed the UN quintet 63
to 54.
Coach Jack Gardner's club has
a hope of finishing- at the top of
the second division, providing it
can get by the Huskers. Currently
boasting: a record of three wins
and six defeats, the Kansas State
outfit would be in a position to tie
Iowa State if the Cyclones bow to
Kansas.
After a blazing early season
start, Nebraska has faltered. The
Huskers started their loop cam
paign by losing to Kansas State
but came back to hand Oklahoma
its only conference loss and then
edged Kansas.
Another resurgence came late
In January when the Scarlet hoop
sters drubbed Drake and Ottum-
wa Navy on a road swing into
Iowa.
Since that time the Huskers
have crushed South Dakota State
but bowed to Iowa State, Kansas,
Oklahoma and Missouri.
' According to word from Man
hattan the Wildcats will open with
Dave Weatherby and Harold
Howey at forwards, Clarence
Brannum and Keith Thomas at
guards and either Jerry Patrick
or Mario Dirks at center.
Watch Him
Howey ruined the Husker's con
ference debut early in January by
pouring 27 points through the
hoop.
Weatherby was an all-Big Six
forward last season but has had a
hard time hitting his usual scor- j
ing pace during the 1946-47 cam
paign. Against the Jayhawks last
week, the willowy forward shook
off the doldrums and was the
scoring leader along with guard
Thomas.

FROM CHAFITIS?
SKIVVY-GRABITIS?
Why bother with old-fashioned
shorts with a sandpaper center scam
that gives you too much close sup
port when you crave freedom?
If your skivvies have that discour
ging habit of creeping relentlessly
back and sabotaging you every time
you bend over, twitch quickly to
a pair of super-comfortable Arrow
shorts.
The seamless crotch is a feature
of every pair" of Arrow shorts

(See Sport Editor's Predictions in
Husker Hilites.)
Relishing the role of underdog
in premeet calculations, the Ne
braska track team is getting in its
last licks before leaving for Kan
sas City and the annual Big Six
track and field indoor champion
ships which are slated for March 1
The Missouri Tigers are rated as
the team to beat in early predic
tions, with the Huskers and Kan
sas ranking behind the Columbia
thinclads. Coach George Bret
nail's Iowa State Cyclones, in
door rulers for the past three
years, are given no chance to re
tain their laurels for the fourth
consecutive time.
Nebraska Coach Ed Weir is not
too .certain that the Bengal per
formers from the Show Me state
will be at the top of the list when
all the returns are in from Sat
urday's running, jumping and
throwing. The reason for the
Scarlet mentor's hopes are a nu
cleus of tried and true contest
ants who are ranked as the best
in the conference in their special
ties. -
Injury J.ist.
Fritz Ware and Bill Moomey
have been counted out of all pre
meet figuring. Moomey has been
hampered all season by a pulled
muscle and is definitely on the
sidelines. Ware is bothered by
the same trouble, but there is a
scant hope that he may be able to
run a 440 in the mile relay.
Conference rules this season
stipulate that each school may
enter 22 performers, four more
than were allowed in last year's
indoor carnival. Faced with this
limit. Weir will have to lop four
point winners off the squad he
has used throughout the dual meet
season.
Little Bobby Ginn carries a
good share of the Husker hopes,
for the midget Madison gamester
is down for a double stint in the
mile and 220. Ginn's perform
ances in both events are the best
in the conference, and he ex
hibited his ability to carry the
double duty in the Oklahoma
meet when he loafed to first place
in the mile in 4:30.2 and then
turned on the steam in the 880 to
hang up a new Nebraska record
as he toured the four furlongs in
1:57.4.
Another Scarlet mainstay is
High Jumper Monte Kinder. Ever
since his second indoor meet
Kinder has won the high jump
event and has posted the best
height of the season among Big
Six jumpers with a leap of 6 feet
4 inches against Kansas.
Dwayne Feeking, current con
ference record holder in the high
jump, will be back to defend nis
crown. The Iowa State lenper
cleared 6 feet 4 inches last winter
to establish a new Big Six record.
In the pole vault Coach Wtir
will have Don Cooper, York sky
ridcr, and Dick Miller, three time
Big Six indoor king. Cooper has
soared 13 feet 9" inches this sea
son, while Miller has hit 13 feet.
Dick Van Dyne of Missouri is the
only other vaulter to get over the
13 foot mark. He cleared 13 feet
1 inch against Kansas in a dual
meet last week.
Still another leader is Hurryin
Harvey Stroud. The North Tlatte
thinman is the man to beat in the
440. Although defeated by Dick
Ault of Missouri in the Husker
Tiger dual meet, Stroud has
turned in a :50.5 clocking, the best
of the season.
Along with the long-geared
Stroud, Coach Weir has Loyal
Hurlbcrt, Ord freshman, who has
moved up rapidly in recent meets.
Hurlbert's terrific finishing kick
makes him hard to beat in the
final spurt for the tape.
Sprinter Dick Hutton and
Hurdler Ralph King are other
possible first place winners. Hut
ton has a share of the fastest time
in the 60 yard dash, :06.3, but
bowed to Fred Guth of Missouri
in this event at Columbia. Guth
also has registered a :06.3 clock
ing. The Husker speedboy is a
threat in the 60 low hurdles, al
though he is a novice at the race.
King-, Waterloo veteran, ran a
:07.6 flight in the tall Umbers
against Oklahoma and defeated
last year's king:, John Sharp of the
Sooners. This time was the fast
est of King's career and indicates
that he will be ready to make a
stern bid for first place.
Nebraska will be the team to
beat in the mile relay. The Husk
er quartet composed of Don Vol
lertson, Loyal Hurlbert, Harvey
Stroud and Bill Conner has
whipped through the mile in
3:29.2. Missouri is expected to
push the Scarlet in this event.
NO HANDS!
(uith Arrow shorts)
Question: How ran a man go
through a full day without using
his hands to vahk down creeping
. shorts?
Answer: Wear Arrow shorts. They
CAN'T crawl up because they are
made with Arrow's patented seam
less crotch which eliminates chaf
ing. Also they are Sanforized-Iabeled
(fabric shrinkage less than 1),
come with either buttons or Grip
per fasteners. You'll like the price,
too!
