Wednesday, December 7, IHIere Wednesday By Irv Bahde The Northwest Missouri State Teachers quintet will have two games under their belt when they invade the Coliseum Wed nesday for the second Husker basketball game of the 1949 sea son. Last week the Teachers cleaned the bench as the Mis souri squad rolled to a 54-23 win at the expense of Buena Vista College. This week the Teachers meet St. Benedicts Tuesday in what could develop into a high scoring affair. Rvlund Milncr, head mentor of tiie North west Missouri squad, has 10 men returning from last vear's team which was trimmed by a fast Husker five 59-39. Of the returnees, four will start aloii'j with one newcomer, the rest will undoubtedly see action later in the Teacher-Cornhusker clash. l.yle Starts Kirbv I-yle is the only new starter lor the Teacher five and the Maryville lad will open the game at a forward slot. Opposite Lvle is Gene Ceglenski. one of scoring threats and a definite leader in rebounding for the Missouri team. However, the big gun in the Teacher offense is Al Henning son, captain of the team and the pace-setter in the Teachers scor ing column last year when the Cornhuskers defeated the Teach ers. It will be Henningson's duty and full time job Wednesday night to try and hold down Ne braska's All-Big Seven center Bus Whitehead. Coach Milner has listed Lloyd Younger and Charles Ramsey to start the Cornhusker game as guards for the Teachers in an attempt to give more polish to the offensive attack. Both guards are good ball handlers and will be tough under the boards since they weigh close to 200 pounds and stand better than six feet. For Nebraska Coach Harry Good, who is beginning his fourth season as head coach, will call upon the same starting five that started last Saturday to bring in the victory for the Cornhuskers. Husker Captain The only change is the game captain and Joe Malecek, junior forward from Berwyn, 111., will take over the game captain duties. Last year Malecek started every game for the Cornhusk ers and averaged 6.9 points per game. Malecek's favorite spot is under the basket and the 6-5 lorward is a rugged man to move out of the way. Good's lineup for the Teacher game will have Malecek and Tony Lawry, forwards; White head, center; and Bob Cerv and Larry Walsh, guards. A y-N-X A.
