Only 18 men remained in the
running for honors in the 60 yard
dash after Monday's semi-finals
which saw one record go by the
wayside.
Rex Coffman, Ag Men speed
ster, set a new Independent record
for the 60 yards, running the dis
tance in 6.8 seconds which
eclipsed his old record of 6.9.
Coffman now holds Independent
records for both the 50 and 60
yards.
Qualifying for the finals behind
Coffman were Dan Tolman, Dorm
A; Blake Cathro. Dale Schnackcl
and Norm Scott of the Student
Union; and Chas. Forck of Ag
Men.

The Huskers lost their first
game of the season Monday night
at the hands of the Bradley
Braves. An early lead by the
Braves was enough to hold the
Nebraska five in check thruout
the game. After trailing 25-8 mid
way in the first period, the Corn
huskers started rolling and were
only four points shy of the Brad
ley crew at the half.
Huskers Trail.
Coach Harry Good's boys could
not pull any closer during the
second half, never getting nearer
to the Braves than six or seven
points. When the gun ended the
game Nebraska was on the short
end of a 64-54 score.
The Huskers were playing with
out the services of two regulars.
Bob Cerv and Joe Malecck. Cerv
was ailing with an ankle injury,
and Malecck. whose wife is ex
pecting a blessed event, elected
to stay with her.
Cerv probably will not see ac
tion against the Iowa team but
Mahicek will return to his for
ward post. Good will probably
give the nod to Hank Ccch or Bob
Gates to fill Cerv's spot.
Reserves To Be Tested.
The Huskcr coach will have
plenty of reserves to call on dur
ing the contest with the Iowa
Teachers. Bob Pierce, who led a
Nebraska rally at Bradley, will
undoubtedly see action against the
Tutor club. Another reserve.
Norm "Buckets" Wilnes, a rapid
ly improving sophomore who
started in Malacek's place at
Bradley, should see some duty.
Good will depend upon his arc
center "Bus" Whitehead, anci
flashy guard Joe Brown to carry
the load Wednesday night.
