There will be no vacation for
the Univeristy of Nebraska cagers
during the Christmas holidays.
The busy Huskers will play
seven games, including three in
the tough Big Seven conference
tournament at Kansas City, while
the rest of us are enjoying all the
comforts of Christmas at home.
Boasting a 3-1 record, Nebraska
,;n fhpir first came of the
i i;.,o catnrHav. Dpc 17. aeainst
a formidable foe from Baylor
college.
Always a front-runner for the
Touthwest Conference line, uay
lor comes to Lincoln with a tall
and speedy team. The only loss
from last year's team is all-conference
forward Jim Owens who
is playing professional ball this
year.
Don Heathington and Bill De
Witt are the offensive spark of
the Bear attack which has been
predicted to give Arkansas a spir
ited battle for conference honors.
Two 'days after the Baylor
ramp in the second real test for
the Huskers this season, Colorado
college travels to Lincoln for a
contest on the Coliseum maples.
Coach Charles F. "Cheerful"
Finly will depend largely upon his
hish-scoring junior, Ellis Pritch
ett, when Idaho University plays
the Cornhuskers at the Coliseum.
The 6-3 Pritchett topped his
mates in the scoring column last
year with 308 points in 32 games.
The Huskers will probably meet
a lineup including Pritchett,
George Key, 5-9, Fred Stallworth,
6-G center, and Joe Orove, b-i ana
Dick Geisler, 6-2 at the guards.
Weir Seeking
Replacements
In Mile, Shot
Ed Weir, head track coach, has
two worries on his mind for the
approaching indoor season. The
first of these is where to find
men to replace two of his key
men lost from last year's cham
pionship indoor squad.
Dick Piderit and Bill Mount
ford, weight and distance men,
respectively, have left a hole
which the mentor linds nam 10
fill. The second of his problems
is keeping the team as a whole
from eating too much Christmas
dinner and not getting enough
real workouts.
equipment with his boys may
prove to be the added drive to
keep them from gaining to much
extra poundage.
One bright note in the work
outs of recent weeks was the out
standing performance of Sopho
more Lee Alexander. Coach Weir
states that Lee has run an anchor
lap on the end of a 4 lap relay
faster than any man since the
great Red Littler. Unofficially
the lap was run under 27 seconds,
yes, 27 seconds.
