Cream into the diving event. Jim
Peterson and Greer will team

Jerry Tubbs, and Dunavan.
In the tumbling event Coach
Geier is sending Ira Epstein,
Tubbs, Dunavan, and possibly
Hughes into the fray while he
has Dunavan, Tubbs, and Eddie
Craren in the trampoline tussle.
Eddie Craren will be the
busiest boy of the week on the
tour. He will be competing in
the diving, in all four swimming
meets and will carry the Husker
colors onto the trampoline in
the three gym battles. And to
top it all, he is expected to take
first place or come mighty near
it all seven times.
Four Lettermen
Dunavan and Hillman will
lead the way for the gymnasts
as two-year lettermen, while
Hughes and Yarwood have
earned a letter one year each.
Craren will be competing as a

strength as Paul Hughes will
still be handicapped with a bro
ken thumb. Hughes was expected
to miss both the Minnesota meet
last Saturday and most of the
action on the Colorado trip, but
with his thumb tightly taped he
picked up a couple of points in
the Gopher tilt and has the de
termination to do even better in
the western jaunt.
The Gymnasts will travel with
the swimmers . to Boulder for
their second meet and from there
to Greeley for their third match.
The Buffs of Colorado are ex
pected to be the big obstacle for
the Scarlet strongmen. The Buf
faloes are the defending All
College champs and appear to be
just as strong as ever this year.
Wrestlers in Action.
The Husker wrestlers, under
the direction of Coach Al Partin,
will also meet Denver Thursday.
Their meet is scheduled for 7

Coach Partin is taking 11 men

Louis Caniglia will be the
Nebraska hope in the 123 pound
class while Harold Gilliland will
be the Husker in the 130 pound
class. Perry Leitel will shouder
the NU burden in the 137 pound
class.
Two men in the 147 pound
class are making the trip and
both Bob Russel and Bill Jones
are expected to see action.
Ed Lane will carry the Husker
colors into the 157 pound match
while two men, Donald Rauh and
Dave Mackje will be on hand for
the Cornhuskers in the 167 pound
class.
Harley Richardson is the
Cornhusker in the 177 pound
match while Heavyweight Herb
Reese will give the Huskers a
lift in that class.
Lane, Reese, Caniglia.
Partin is depending on Lane,
Caniglia and Reese to provide
the stiff est competition for the
Coloradoans. Reese was the only
Husker to produce a win in the
Huskers' opener with Oklahoma
A & M and has a good chance of
bringing home a couple of more
first places. His toughest compe
tition is expected from the Colo
rado university heavyweight.
Lane and Caniglia are depend
able veterans and Coach Partin
thinks that Lane, in particular, is
one of the most improved mat
men on the Husker squad this
year.

north to Laramie to meet the

E-Ril Basketball Powers Eoll On;
Upsets Spice ftfond ay's Action
The number one, three and
five teams in university intra
mural basketball continued on
their merry ways Monday night
as the I-M cage sport resumed
its activity. Phi Delta Theta,
Sigma Phi Epsilon, and Phi
Kappa Psi all roared through
their respective matches with
comparative ease in winning
their fourth straight games.
The top-ranked Phi Delts were
held to the closest margin of the
three tussles as they dropped
Beta Sigma Psi by a 36-22 score.
With Chick Battey and Tom Led
ingham leading the way, the Phi
Delis ran up quarter leads of
6-2, 15-7, and 22-15 before slap
ping the pesky Beta Sigs down
for good in the final stanza.
Battey was top man in the
scoring column with 14 points
while Ledingham ran a close
second with 12. Dennehl topped
the losing effort with ten tallies.
No Competition
The Sig Eps found no competi
tion in Alpha Gamma Rho and
ran to a 65-19 rout. The Sig Eps
thus established the highest point
total in this year's competition.
The all-time high is 82, set by
Alpha Tau Omega last year.
It was 17-7 at the first quar
ter and 25-9 at halftime for the
rampaging Sig Eps. The AGR's
were just as helpless in the third
period and going into the final
stanza the score stood at 40-11.
Al Hansen chalked up 22
points during the evening to run
away with the scoring honors.
Team-mate Kay Curtis ran sec
ond with a night's effort of 14.
For the losing AGR's, it was
Frost with six points.
The Phi Psi's found things al
most as easy as they lambasted
Beta Theta Pi to the tune of
52-28. The Betas kept things
close for one quarter and fell to
the slaughter. Going into the sec
ond period the score stood at
10-10, but that was the end of
the comparison.
Andersan and Reynolds
Jerry Anderson and Bobby
Reynolds combined to give the
unbeaten Phi Psi's a push and
they outscored the Betas 15-7,
16-9, and 11-2 in the remaining
three chuckers. Anderson topped
the scoring With 13 markers
while Reynolds tallied 12. Yapp
was high man for the Betas with
ten.
While these three powerful
outfits continued their sweep,

SAE's fell before a resurging
band of ATO's by the score of
33-36.
The Sig Alphs had things
their way during the first half
and led at intermission by a
24-18 score. Jones and Sloan
went to work for the Taus in
the second half, however, and
the SAE lead disappeared
quickly.
Jones topped the victors' scor
ing with 12 points as did Leach
for the losing Sig Alphs. Sloan
got eight for the Taus along with
Shainholtz for the SAE's.
More Upsets
Another upset was in the
making while the Taus were dis
posing of the Sig Alphs. Sigma
Nu, far down in the standings,
came through with a surprising
easy victory over Phi Gamma
Delta.
The Nu's outscored their rivals
in all four quarters to take the
win, halftime score standing at
18-12. Andy Bunten led the vic
tors in the scoring with 15 points
while Smith added eight. Gerry
Robertson of the Fijis tallied 13
for the losers.
Kappa Sigma, ninth in the
fraternity "A" ratings, were also
victims of Monday night upset
wins. The Kappa Sigs ran into
a Delta Tau Delta buzzsaw and
were stifled, 21-38.
Elmer Vandel was the big
thorn in the Kappa Sig side as
he tallied 13 points for the Delts.
Percy Curtis helped the losers
with eight.

Held to a 10-6 first quarter
score, the Pioneers broke loose
in the second stanza to pile up
a 22-8 halftime lead and coasted
in from there.
Wes Beery, Dick Dwehus, and
Don Dutcher were the big guns
of the Pioneer attack and

respectively. Bob Hallock pro

only to Phi Kappa Psi, rolled to
