Power; Topple Favorites
Huskers Exception; Beaten
By California U., 62 to 59
All of the Big Seven with the
exception of Nebraska continued
to display terrific basketball
power in their games leading off
this week. Of the four teams in
action Monday night, only the
Cornhusker tasted defeat. The
other three were not even threat
ened. While the Huskers were falling
before the Golden Bears of Cali
fornia, 62-59, Missouri, Okla
homa, and Iowa State had
brighter evenings.
Missouri, the team which upset
CCNY's grand slam college bas
ketball champions last Saturday,
dumped Ohio State's defending
Big-Ten champions, 61-51.
The Buckeyes have only lost
to Big Seven teams in the season
thus far. Kansas State dropped
the Bucks earlier in the year.
Ohio State easily won their other
two starts.
Fine Ball Handling
Fine ball handling and a style
of play in which the Tigers kept
possession of the ball until set
for a shot, contributed to the

victory. The Missourians piled up
most of their 23 baskets on one
handed shots.
Oklahoma, meanwhile, was
trampling on Minnesota, 66-45.
The Gophers beat Nebraska
earlier in the year, 55-41. The
Sooners hobbled the Gophers
with a tight zone defense and
displayed amazing shooting ac
curacy to defeat the Northland
ers. The Sooners grabbed an early
lead and never were threatened.
At one time in the first half, the
Okies rang up ten straight points
before the Gophers could tally.
In the torrid first half the
Sooners scored on 37.7 per cent
of their shots. Minnesota counted
only 23.8 per cent.
Iowa State used its height to
control the rebounds and defeat
Utah State, 52-41.
Take Lead
The Cyclones took the lead,
9-7, midway in the first quarter
and never lost "it. The closest
Utah State got thereafter was
four points early in the second
quarter.
As for the Cornhuskers, they
absorbed their third straight lick
ing at the hands of Pacific teams
when California dropped them
by a slight 62-59 score.
The Golden Bears, leading 32
26 at haiftime, extended their
advantage to 44-33 with eight
minutes gone in the third period.
But the tired Cornhuskers came
back and moved out in front of
the west coasf five, 51-47, with
six minutes to go.
Jim Buchanan, justling Ne
braska guard, led the comeback
as he scored three quick field
goals. But Cal, paced by center
Bill Hagler and guard Ray
Squeri, gained the lead in the
waning minutes, 58-57, and held
on.
Visibly Tired
The Huskers, visibly tired from
their long jaunt and rough sched
ule, could not break the last
minute Cal stall.
Both teams played brilliantly,
then raggedly in spots. The
Huskers fared best on a fast
break with Buchanan scoring
time and again on driving set
ups. Jimmy made 16 points in
the second half and 24 all told.
He joined the Cow Palace select
Buckeyes,
Gophers Still
Hunt Coaches
Two Big Ten schools were still
searching for football coaches
today as the positions at both
Ohio State and Minnesota uni
versities remained unfilled.
Athletic Director Ike Arm
strong of Minnesota said that he
had talked to four coaches to de
termine whether they were
"available to replace Bernie
Bierman as Gopher coach."
The coaches were Clarence
"Biggy" Munnof Michigan State;
Andy Gustafson of Miami; Paul
Bryant of Kentucky, and Bud
Wilkinson of Oklahoma. Wilkin
son has already turned down any
offers to go to the Gopher school.
Armstrong said he had "quite
a few" applicants for the job,
generally from high schools and
small colleges. He added -that
they hadn't offered the job to
anybody but that they would
have offered it to Wilkinson if
he were available.
No Conversation
Armstrong said he had had no
conversation with others men
tioned for the job, including Paul
Brown, coach of the Cleveland
pro Browns; Dallas Ward, Colo
rado coach; Red Dawson, an as
sistant at Michigan State; Milt
Bruhn, an assistant, or Win
Brockmeyer, a Wisconsin high
school coach.
"We're going to work as fast
as we can," Armstrong added.
"I have no interviews planned,
however."
"We may not be able to settle
this for quite a time," he said.
Meanwhile, Ohio State was
looking for its fifth head football
coach in a decade. Wes Fesler,
former All-America end for the
Buckeyes who has guided their
fortunes the last four seasons
and to the Big Ten title and Rose
Bowl championship last year
resigned last Saturday night.
Might Be Brown
High in the speculations as to
Fesler's successor is Paul Brown
of the Cleveland Browns. Brown
coached for two years at Ohio
State before he took over at
Great Lakes and then turned to
professional football. His Buck
eyes were national champions in
1942.
His contract with the Cleveland
Browns has five years to run.
However, the contract is believed
to be a "one-way" deal, with
Brown able to conclude it at any
time. Since taking the reins at
Cleveland, Brown has led them
to four successive championships
of the All-America conference
and this, his fifth year, the
Browns are tied for first place
in the American division of the
National pro league.
Friends say that Brown has
Implied he would return to Ohio
State as football coach, not neces
sarily as athletic director.

Happy Out;
Majors Seek
Replacement
Happy Chandler was ousted
Tuesday as commissioner of ma
jor league baseball. The 16 ma
jor league outfits failed to vote
Happy a new contract and told
him that at the end of his cur
rent one he was through.
With this under their belts,
the majors prepared to name a
new commissioner.
Heading a list of candidates
reported under consideration are
George Trautman, chief of the
minor leagues, and Ford C.
Frick, president of the National
League.
Others favored include Warren
Giles, general manager of the
Cincinnati Reds; Branch Rickey
of the Pirates; former Postmas
ter General James A. Farley; J.
Edgar Hoover and Thomas
Courtney, former Illinois State
prosecutor.
The name of the new commis
sioner did not come up for con
sideration at the Monday night
meeting in St. Petersburg, Fla.
Will Serve Term
Reiterating his intention of
serving out his term, which ex
pires in April, 1950, . Chandler
said, "I have done the best job
I know how to do. There is
nothing to be bitter about. Noth
ing in life ever made me bitter.
I am surprised, but not huVt."
The ou.ster was accomplished
with amaziing secrecy. Had those
grouping against Chandler ap
proached the wrong men in try
ing to recruit the necessary five
for his defeat, they would have
tipped off the pro-Chandler
magnates and the cat would have
been out of the bag.
But nobody knew what was
going on until the meeting was
called secretly.
Election of a commissioner
calls for a 12 to 4 favorable vote
and the trial poll among the
magnates was nine in favor and
seven against Happy. Then came
a formal vote, 8 to 8.
Chandler, bowled over by the
news, asked for a review of the
magnates' vote and they voted
again, this time 9 to 7.
Dodgers Stop
Broadcasting
Next Season
The first step of major league
baseball's attempt to crack down
on television and radio took
place when the Brooklyn Dodg
ers announced that they will dis
continue their broadcasting net
work in 1951 and curtail the ra
dio description of their home
games to a single New York sta
tion. The Dodgers acted as an in
dividual in this matter which
made it almost certain that or
ganized baseball will act in this
manner instead of in one group.
The major leagues, opening
their annual mid-winter meet
ings, in St. Petersburg, Fla.,
made radio and television their
first order of the day. There
were also strong indications that
the minors were going to be
granted the relief they claim they
so sorely need.
The Cincinnati Reds were re
ported ready to do the same as
the Dodgers and the New York
Yankees were said to be work
ing on reducing or eliminating
the network which carries the
New York games throughout the
East.
Other clubs, which broadcast
over networks, were considering
action where definite commit
ments would permit changes.
By working out the problem
on the basis of individual clubs,
rather than taking concerted
league action, baseball hoped to
avoid any trouble with the jus
tice department, which forced
them to throw Ihe radio and tele
vision rights open to all last sea
son or face possible prosecution
on anti-trust charges.
President George Trautman of
the minor leagues and Frank
Shaughnessy of the International
league the minor circuit prob
ably hardest hit by the daily
broadcasting and televising of
major league games were hope
ful that a solution was near.
"The Brooklyn action is a step
in the right direction and a most
encouraging sign," Trautman
said. "Now if the other clubs
will follow suit, we'll have our
oiggesa jiruuieiu uimu,

Wilkinson Gets
Coach-of-Year
Bud Wilkinson not only led
his Oklahoma football team to
the National Championship this
year but turned in the season's
best coaching job in doing it.
That's the opinion of sports
writers and broadcasters, partici
pating in the Associated Press
year-end poll.
Wilkinson won out for top
coaching honors in a close race
with Charley Caldwell of Prince
ton and Lynn "Pappy" Waldorf,
the old master from California.
The writers and broadcasters
were asked: "Who did the best
coaching job in 1950?"
Replies brought voles for 38
coaches with the 34-year-old
Wilkinson a strong favorite. He
received 44 votes. Caldwell, who
led Princeton thru a nine-game
schedule without mishap, drew
30 while Waldorf collected 26.
Paul "Bear" Bryant of Ken
tucky received 18 votes and Ivan
Williamson of Wisconsin drew
down 12.
Others getting five and above
included George Saucr of Baylor,
Earl Blaik of Army, Bob Neyland
of Tennessee, Andy Gustafson of
Miami, Howie Odell of Washing
ton, Biggie Munn of Michigan
State, Bill Glassford of Nebraska,
George Barclay of Washington &
Lee, and Blair Cherry of Texas.

Sigs, F. House, Presby
Five new records were estab
lished in the preliminaries It the
shot-put and 440 yard dash Mon
day in the continuation of the
intramural indoor track and field
meet and Sigma Chi, Presby
House, and the Field House con
tinued to pace their respective
divisions.
Only the shot put record in
the fraternity division withstood
the assault on the record books
Monday. Both the Independent
and Interdenominational divi
sions marked up new records
during the afternoon.
All three top marks in the
440 run went into the books
ns records since this is the first
year this even is being held in
the I-M meet.
Giles Breaks Mark
Bill Giles of Presby shattered
the old mark in the Denom class
by heaving the iron ball 48 feet,
six and a half inches. This toss
eclipsed the record of 47-5 set
last year by George Prochaska
of the Newman Club.
Cliff Dale, participating in
dependently, established a new
mark in the Independent class
with a put of 47-9, erasing the
mark of 43 feet set by Floyd Goff
oAg Men in 1949.
Grimm Tops
Paul Grimm of Phi Gamma
Delta topped all the strong men
during the afternoon with a put
of 51-5. Grimm's heave stamped
him as a favorite to cop this
event in the fraternity division
as well as All-University honors.
Other qualifiers in the frat
division with good marks were
Ted James of Alpha Tau Omega,
49-6, Tom Stoup of Sigma Nu,
46-1, and Dick King of Sigma
Phi Epsilon, Wayne Handsby of
Phi Gamma Delta, Eldon Park
of Delta Tau Delta, and Don
Dorward of the Sig Eps.
Qualifying behind record
breaking Giles in the Denom
class were Dick Stansbury of
Presby, 43-6 and Bob Rudolph
of Lutheran Huse, Cal German
of the'Ag YMCA, Bill Mundell
of Presby, and Dan Lindquist of
Lutheran House.
Springer Jones, independent,
was right behind Dale in the
Independent division with a
heave of 47-7 i. Charles Hunley
of the Field House also qualified
with 46-i2.
Alexander Leads Way
Lee Alexander of Sigma Phi
Epsilon led the way in the first
running of the 440-yard dash,
Alexander clicked off the dis
tance in 52.4 seconds for the top
qualifying mark in the fratern
ity class. Righ behind him and
running for Alpha Tau Omega
was Hobe Jones with a 53.3
clocking.
Bob Barchus, Sigma Chi,
qualified third with 54.2, just a
shade ahead of Jack Scoville of
Sigma Alpha Epsilon who had
a time of 54.3 as did Wayne
Whitaker of Sigma Phi Epsilon.
Dick Hungerford of Cornhusker
Co-op and Dan Tolman of Sigma
Chi also qualified in this divi
sion. Harold Sampson was top- man
in the Denominational class as
he carried Presby House to a
first place in the prelims here
with a time of 56.5 seconds. Cal
vin German of Ag YMGA came
in second with a 57.2 in the pre
liminaries. Also qualifying were
Bob Rutz of Inter-Varsity, and
Dan Lindquist and Phil Hain,
both of the Lutheran House.
Schnakel Qualifies
j Dale Schnackel running for
Field House was the only quali
fier in the Independent class as
he turned the track in a time
of 54 seconds.
In the fraternity class, Sigma
Chi is currently still holding

fiers with 18 in the eight events
thus far. Alpha Tau Omega is
second with 13 and Sigma Phi
Epsilon is ,hird with 11. Phi
Gamma Delta and Sigma Alpha
Epsilon each have six. Defend
ing champion, Phi Delta Theta,
is far behind with only two
qualifiers.
Presby leads the Denom di
vision with 17 men qualified.
The Lutheran Student Associa
tion is running second with nine
men in. The Ag YMCA has five
qualifiers and Inter-Varsity has
three. Presby is the defending
champion.
The Field House tops the In
dependent class with 14 quali
fiers. The unorganized Inde
pendents are second with eight
and the Ag Men's Club has three.
Sigs Have Edge
If the prelim times and dis
tances were to be accepted as
final, the margins would be
come a whole lot less in the fra
ternity division. On the bases of
the 7-5-4-3-2-1- scoring in the
events whose prelims have al
ready been run the scores would
stand: Sigma Chi 46 1130;
Sigma Phi Epsilon 43 130;
Alpha Tau Omega 41', Phi
Gamma Delta 23',; Sigma
Alpha Epsilon 11 130; Sigma
Nu 4; Cornhusker Co-op
4 15; and several more with less
than four points.
Field House would have
amassed a total of 70 points in
this figuring to be well in front
on the Independents who would
have 41. Ag Men's Club would
have 14 points.
Presby House would have the
staggering total of 89 points,
nearly 60 points ahead of the
Lutherans who would have 30
markers. Ag YMCA would have
