Charlie Miller Optimistic
Over Gymnastics Prospects
Coach Charlie Miller is looking
forward to a great year for bym
nastics next year and his opti
mism is strengthened by this
year's freshman squad and the
fact that only one varsity man
will graduate.
Four boys received freshman
letters this year in gymnastics.
They are Art Hillman of Deshler,
Ed Kremlasek of St. Paul, Al
Dunavan of Beatrice and Wally
Douthit of Wolbach.
These four boys are showing
more and more talent and are ex
pected to give the present varsity
men a good go for each position
and will undoubtedly make the
team.
Lloyd Helgesen and George Al-

exander, although not freshmen,
are steadily improving and will
figure in the varsity picture. Hel
gesen . specializes in the trampo
line and the parallel bars and will
be right on varsity man Phil
Sprague's tail next year.
Another gymnast that didn't
letter but did very well is Norm
Anderson from Neligh. Norm has
three more years of competition
left and will strengthen the squad
considerably in the next couple of
years.
Eddie Craren, who was state
trampoline champion in high
school and received a freshman
letter in swimming this year is
going to try to combine these two
sports next year, as the gymnas
tic and swimming squads are go
ing to try and take their trips to
gether. The golf and tennis squads
tried it this year and it has proven
very successful.
Huskers Host
To Big Seven
Tournaments
Nebraska's golf and tennis
teams will be host this week-end
to the other Big Seven schools for
the Big Seven golf and tennis
championships,
Iowa State, Kansas and Okla
homa tied for top honors in the
golf championships last year. On
the basis of past performance the
Cyclones are favored to cop the
title this year since they defeated
Oklahoma in a dual meet this
year. However, the Sooners were
without the services of their ace
golfer, Charlie Coe, and with him
back in action the Oklahomans
may be the team to beat. Coe won
both the Trans-Mississippi and
Broadmoor tournaments last year
and is rated as the best golfer
in collegiate circles this year.'
Nebraska's hopes will be placed
on Del Ryder and Don Spomer.
Both Del and Don have won sev
eral tournaments this last year.
Ryder is state sand greens cham
pion and Ryder burned up the
fairways over in Japan in sev
eral tournaments.
Oklahoma Favored.
Oklahoma is favored to repeat
in the tennis tournament. They
have defeated every team in the
conference despite the loss of four
lettermen. Their number one man
from last year, Stanley Draper, is
back and will be favored in the
meet.
The golf tournament will be
played at Hillcrest Country club
and the tennis meet will be run
off at the Lincoln Tennis club.
