(Daily Nebraska Sports Writer)
Coach Harry Good's University of Nebraska cage quintet will
open the 1948 Big Six basketball race Tuesday night when it clashes
with the Iowa State Cyclones on the Ames court. The Huskers go
into the loop opener with a 5-6 record, while the Cyclones have won
six and lost two.
Although the early season ratings by the experts overlooked the
Huskers and the Cyclones, both
clubs have caused enough fire
works in recent contests to draw
a near record crowd in the Iowa
State gym tonight. On the basis
of the pre-season Big Six tourna
ment results, Nebraska will be a
slight favorite.
Both quintets finished the tour
nament with identical records
Nebraska dropped Missouri and
then bowed to Oklahoma A. & M
and Kansas. Iowa State defeated
Colorado and lost to the Aggies
and Missouri. The Oklahoma
A. & M. edge over Nebraska was
one point, while the Aggies de'
feated the Cyclones by 11 points
The Huskers clipped Missouri, 46
44, and the Tigers dropped Iowa
State by an eight-point margin
Huskers Have Heighth.
Nebraska's starting five will
hold a slight height advantage
over the Cyclone starters. The
Huskers will average approxi
mately 6 feet 2 inches, and the
Cyclones will average about 6 feet
V2 inch.
Iowa State will start four men
who were regular players on last
seasons squad. Roy and Kay
Wehde will start at the forward
posts with Don Paulsen at center
and Ron Norman at guard. The
fifth starter will be 5 foot 8 inch
Bob Petersen. Petersen is consid
ered one of the fastest cagers ever
to wear a Cyclone uniform. He
was an all-conference guard in
1946.
Iowa State gained the spotlight
during Christmas vacation when
the Cyclones downed highly-rat
ed Michigan of the Big Nine in
two games. The I-Staters most
recent victory came at the hands
of Drake university.
Allen Replaces Cerv.
Coach Harry Good named Bob
Allen to replace injured Bob Cerv
on the traveling squad. Cerv re
ccived a back injury in the Ne
vada game last Tuesday and will
be unable to go against the Cy
clones. However, he will be ready
for the home contest with Mis
souri on Jan. 12.

cludes Joe B.-own, Henry Cech,

MISSES IOWA STATE TILT Bob Cerv, scrappy Nebraska guard,
will miss the Huskers' initial Big Six conference test Tuesday night.
Coach Harry Good was forced to drop Cerv from the traveling
squad to give the bruising back court performer a chance to let
injuries sustained in the Nevada game Dec. 30 heal. Cerv will,
however, be ready for the Huskers' next home performance against
the Missouri Tigers Jan. 12.
