Coach Harry Good greeted sev
en lettermen and four reserves
from last seasons basketball squad
as the Big Seven co-champions
swung into full practice Saturday.
Good, voted as last years out
standing coach in the conference,
vill be minus the services of three
regulars: Claude Retherford, Rod
Cox, and Ken Anderson, who
were lost at June graduation.
The loss of Retherford leaves
the Husker lineup without an ex

reason the lack of height and ex
perience must be replaced by
team unity on the court.

Centers: Milton "Bus" Whitehead,
Scottsbluff, and Bob Pierce, Lin
coln; Forwards: Anton Lawry,
Omaha, Joe Malecek, Chicago,
Dick Srb, Lincoln, Ray Jussel,

season's "B" team who will be
counted on are: Center: Ray

promise with the freshmen squad
last season are: Center: Al Bles

Strength in
48-26 Win'
BY ROD RIGGS.
Oklahoma began play in its own
Big Seven conference when the
Sooners whipped Kansas, 48-26.
at Owen Field Saturday in the
471h annual game.
It's a tough circuit from top to
bottom, but Oklahoma hasn't lost
a Big Seven conference game at
Norman since 1942, and has
played 12 league games without
a defeat.
Their 20-14 victory over Texas
was won without Norman Mc
Nabb, fast charging guard who
was dazed on the third play of
the game and withdrawn. Clair
Mayes, right guard who sprained
an ankle against Boston college
and didn't play against Texas
A. & M., limped through some
action at Dallas, but was below
par.
The disability of this experi
enced trio might have been fatal
had not the Sooner reserves who
had scarcely soiled their jerseys
in previous games Guards Art
Janes and Delton Marcum and
Tackle J. W. Cole gone into the
breach and given a smashing per
formance. With the Sooner . defense hav
ing held opposition rushing at
tacks so soundly, the Oklahoma
pass defense, headed by the
smallest man on the squad, 152
pound, five-foot-ten Buddy Jones
has been exposed to a wild flurry
of enemy passes that has aver
aged 31 tosses per game.
But despite the fact that they
have met three sharp throwers
in Ed Songin of Boston college,
Don Njehols of Texas A. & M.,
and Papul Campbell of Texas, no
touchdown passes have yet gone
through Oklahoma while they
themselves have scored on pass- j
ing in every game so far.
And they have averaged 13.8;
net yards on each of their pass
completions while holding all op-
ponents to an average of 0.2. I
The Texas victory last week ;
was the 13th in a row for Okla- J
homa. Their last defeat was 17
20 to Santa Clara in the first I
game of last year, played at San j
Francisco. I

Three Way
Tie in Big-7
Title Raee
Three unbeaten teams lead the
race for the Big Seven champion
ship. Iowa State, three wins and
no losses, Nebraska and Oklahoma
with one win and no losses are
leading the pack as the confer
ence race gets into full swing.
Kansas State and Colorado are
tied for fourth and fifth with one
win and two losses and Kansas
is in the cellar losing three with
out a win.
In the all-games standings, the
Sooners are out in front with four
victories and no defeats. The
Wildcats are a close second with
a four win, no loss, one tie sea
son's record.
Nebraska, Kansas State and
Missotiri come next with a .500
mark of two wins and two de
feats. The Buffaloes and Jay-
hawkers trail with one and three
and one and four records, respec
tively. Oklahoma seems to be every
one's choice to repeat as Big
Seven Champions this year. Mis
souri, who has lost by one-point
margins to Ohio State and Texas
Christian and beaten Illinois this
season is the logical contender.
Oklahoma has won one confer
ence game thus far while Mis
souri has yet to play a Big Seven
opponent.
Two perennial doormats of the
league. Kansas State and Iowa
State, have been the surprise
teams this year. The two locked
horns in the feature game of the
day Saturday with Iowa State
emerging the victor by a 25-21
score.

dirt on Luther's passing and run
ning. Coach Joe Bedenk unveiled a
new running star to score the
third touchdown for the Lions.
Tony Orsini took over Luther's
chores late in the third period and
scored when Penn State inter
cepted a lateral from Del Wie
ganfl to Rocky Mueller. The pass
was behind Rocky . and he couldn't
get his hands on it. Penn State
took over on the Husker 23 pnd
O.sini reached the goal line in
three plays.
State's overpowering line was
responsible for the last two points
of the game. The hard-charging
forward wall kept pushing Ne
braska back until they dropped
Nagle in the end zone as he was
attempting to pass. The Huskers
took the ball on their own 23
after Luther's punt and three
successive losing plays netted the
safety.
For Penn State it was Bill
Luther all the way on offense.
Lion star Fran Rogel was hurt
in the first quarter and did not
see action the rest of the game.
He wasn't needed, though, as
Luther, ably assisted by Orsini,
Chuck Drabenovich, Earle Mun
riell. and Vince O'Bara, took ad
vantage of wide holes in the
Husker line made by the State
forward wall .
Three Passers
The Lions used three forward
passers to great advantage. Luther,
O Bara and Owen Dougherty
combined to complete ten out of
19 passes. Nebraska intercepted
three State passes with big Tom
Novak getting two of them.
The line backing twins, Tom
Novak and Walt Spellman, again
were the big guns for the Husk
ers on defense. Novak and Art
Bauer livecj up to previous no
tices by the Penn State scout. He
warned the Lions against these
two giants and they didn't let him
down.

Friday Night
Upsets came thick and fast
Friday in IM football as the un
derdogs came out on top in three
of five contests.
Previously unbeaten, untied,
and unscored on Intei Varsity ran
into a vicious band of Presbyte
rians and were swallowed up by
a 20-0 count. The vaunted IV at
tack never got started as Presby
intercepted eight of their passes
while completing 16 of their own.
The loss knocked the losers into
a three-way tie for first in the
Denominational League with
Presby and Newman Club which
got a game from the Methodists
on a forfeit.
Also previously unbeaten, un
tied, and unscored on Sigma Al
pha Mu felt ttoe axe wielded by
a determined bunch of Theta Xi's,
28-6. This leaves the two teams
tied for first place in League IV
as the first round ends.
The third upset of the day was
YMCA's 1-0 victory over Dorm A.
The last game of the day saw
unbeaten Farm House keep its
record clean with a 14-0 win over
Delta Chi.
Monday's schedule is as follows:
Pioneer Co-op vs. Delta Chi.
Farm House vs. Cornhusker Co
op. Pi Kappa Phi vs. Sigma Alpha
Mu.
Theta Xi vs. Tau Kappa Epsi

game both on defense and offense.
He returned another punt after
his scoring spree for 42 yards so
he will be the man to watch when
the Huskers tackle Big Seven
champion Oklahoma at Memorial
Stadium next Saturday.
Besides running back punts,
Ron did most of the punting for
the Cornhuskers. He got off some
very good kicks and improved
Nebraska's punt average which is
the lowest in the Big Seven.
