Postponement of the Nebraska
football drills for a week because
of poor weather and flu means
that the gridiron activities will
extend into the heart of the spring
sports program. With baseball,
outdoor track, golf and tennis also
on the docket, Scarlet sports fans
will have a varied bill of fare.
Maybe its just as well that the
football sessions do not open until
next week, for Head Coach Bernie
Masterson became a father for the
fourth time early Tuesday morn
in;. The latest addition to the
Masterson family Is a son, some
thing: new for Bernie who has had
his hands full with, three daugh
ters.
Although poor weather has
blighted the Husker workouts,
Coach Bud Wilkinson is wasting
no time down Oklahoma way. The
Sooners ran through a game
length scrimmage session on Sat
urday, their second of the spring
season, and heading the perform
ers was Joe Golding, ace backfield
scooter, who tallied one touch
down.
Another 1f the Oklahoma pig
skin stalwarts, John Rapacz, all-
conference center, has passed up
the spring drills to concentrate on
baseball. The husky Rapacz is a
catcher, and has beaten out last
year's regular and last year's first
string reserve in the battle for a
starting berth.
That warm weather must have
something to do with it, for an
other OU athlete, trackman Lan
don Westbrook, broke loose with
a :49.6 quartermile in a practice
race, the fastest clocking turned in
by a Big Six 440 expert.
Nebraska's quartermile ace Har
vey Stroud is still bothered by the
muscle injury he suffered at the
Big Six indoor championships. He
has not ventured onto the track
since the meet. However, Harvey
figures to be back in top shape
for the Nebraska outdoor season
which opens on April 5 with the
Texas Relays at Austin, Texas.
A comparison of the winning
marks in the Big Six and. Big
Nine championships shows that
the western conference perfor
mers had all the better of it, for
they came out on top in every
comparison, except for a tie in
the 60 yard dash. The winning
marks in the Big Six and Big
Nine respectively:
60 yd. dssh :08.3; :06.3.
440 yd. dash :M; :48.2.
8R0 yd. run 1 :M.8; 1:83. .
Mile Kun 4:19.7: 4:18.8.
Two Mile Run 9:64.7; 9:30
Mile Relay 3:2ft: 3:18.9.
Shot Tut 60 feet 614 Inchef; 63 feet

Broad Jump 22 feet 1H4 Inches; 24

Hlch Jump 6 feet 6 Inchei; 8 feet
7'd Inches.
Pole Vault 13 feet 4 Inchei; 13
feel 8 Inches.
Big Nine runs 70 yard hurdle races;
Bin Mix runs 60 yard hurdles.
There's nothing like improve
ment. Joe Brown, regular guard on
this year's Husker basketball
team, finished ten conference
games with a total of 91 points.
This figure is one point ahead of
Joe's 90 point mark last year.
The only difference Is that last
season the Nashville, Tennessee
deadcye finished In sixth place
among the conference scorers, and
this season his one point advance
entitles him to the eighth place
spot.
Gerald Tucker won the scoring
crown with 137 points, a far cry
from Charlie Black's winning
mark of 173 tallies in the 1945-46
season.

Finals Ready
BY LEE HARRIS
Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Phi Delta
Theta and Sigma Chi advanced in
the B team playoffs being held in
the coliseum Monday afternoon.
In the game played on the var
sity court, the SAE managed to
hold a slim margin throughout the
game as they edged the ATO
crew 32-29. The Sig Alphs started
out fast as they hung up a five
point lead before ATO hit the
scoring column.
The half found Alpha Tau
Omega trailing 17-16 and though
it looked like they might surge
into the lead many times during
the second half, they were set
down time and again by a good
SAE defense. Gary led all scorers
with a total of 11 points in behalf
of the winners' cause while Gal
lop of ATO came through with 9
counters.
While the battle was taking
place on the varsity court, the
Sigma Chi B's were putting the
finishing touches on the seconds
from Phi Gamma Delta, 33-21.
The Sigma Chi team, loser only
to Phi Delta Theta in the play
offs, will face Alpha Tau Omega
for second division ratings in the
playoffs. Bouhay collected 7 points
for Sigma Chi, while Pait of Phi
Gamma Delta slipped in 10 points
for tue users.
Fhi Delta Theta's B team moved
into the finals by virtue of an
easy 23-18 win over Theta Xi.
The Phi Delts held a slim 13-10
lead at the half, but controlled
the ball when it counted most.
Shifty Joe Partington rang the
bell for 10 points in the scoring
department for Phi Delta Theta
while the leading scoring for the
Theta Xi five was Robak with
nine. Moore of the Phi . Delts
played a good floor game through
out. Box scores:

Entries Fey
In IM Boxing
March 13 is the last day for all
boxers to submit their entries to
the intramural office for the box
ing carnival that is drawing near.
Thus far a slim number of en
tries has been received, and the
112 pound class is a blank in the
way of candidates." Those plan
ning on participating are reminded
that no less than six supervised
workouts are required before they
enter the ring March 18.
The heavy boys continue to lead
the way thus far In early work
outs. With the addition of last
year's champion, John Sedlacek,
the heavyweight division will
offer lots of competition from
every angle. Tommy Novak con
tinued working out along with
Stan Daffer, Sedlacek's opponent
of last year. Other additions in
clude two well qualified fighters
in Gordon Hall and Bob Test.
Harlan Cranston still leads the
way in the 175 class together with
Ron Metzger. Most of the approxi
mately forty candidates are en
tered in the upper classes with the
175 and heavyweight divisions
dominating the roster.
Middleweights.
Virge Ohse, Bud Kathol, and
Duane Anderson look to cause a
lot of excitement as they battle
for honors in a pretty well filled
160 pound class. Of the three,
Kathol is the latest entry.
Former Golden Glove champion
Jim Wolford received a severe cut
on the chin in a brief workout
this week. The cut required six
stitches and will in all probability
force the favorite of the 147
pounders out of the tournament.
This mishap leaves the field open
to a group of six that includes
Ken Fischer, Bob Connell,
and Gray Norval. All in all the
boys in this class should put on
a good show as they battle their
way toward the champion's berth.
Don Theil still looks good in the
135 division, as does Ray Simons.
As the weights lessen, so do the
number of contestants. From the
135 class -down, there is plenty of
room for new entries.
Slipping through to the lighter
boys, we find that Ray Roth, Bill

eyes on the 126 pound champion
ship. These boys all will figure
heavily when the time for action
comes. Bill Acosta and Hugh Cook

dates is down to three.
No Flyweights.
The smallest class of all, 112,
is as yet blank and the field is
wide open for anyone wanting to
enter. Here is a good chance for
some of the teams that might be
weak in other classes to pick up
valuable points that will count
toward the team trophy.
Tickets will go on sale at the
door, with all students receiving a
reduced price of 35 cents. Regular
admissions will be 60 cents, with
ring-side seats selling for 80 cents.
