Spring Practice Begi ns Today
Onlv the fraternity "A"' clay
off pairings were anywhere close
to being completed after Satur
day's Intramural cace contests.
The senior fraternity group has
all but two berths awarded.
Tn iha ot.hpr three divisional
playoff tourneys, it is practically
the opposite, wun oniy two xo six
teams , holding down definite
berths. They will not be decided
until after Monday's cage action
and probably some wiu ne de
cided only after drawing teams
from lot.
The fourth place teams in
leagues I and III are what are
holding up the frat "A" tourney
from being ready. Two teams,
Beta Sigma Psl and Sigma Al
pha Epsllon are tied for fourth
place in league I. The nod here
will probably go o the Beta Sigs
since they have downed the Sig
Alphs twice already.
In league III there are three
tfnms that finished in a tie for
fourth place. Beta Theta Pi, Pi
Kappa Phi and Theta Xi all have
similar 2-8 records. All three
teams have won and lost one
game with the other two. This
berth will have to be decided by
drawing.
TiPlta Tan Delta and Siffma Chi
could exchange their present po
sitions pending the outcome of
thP nptt-Sicr En came that re
mains to be played. If the Delts
lose, the Sigs win cnmD into a
tie with them lor second in
league II.

The monarch of Husker ath
letics ascends his throne today.
Football falls into the sport
light with the opening of spring
practice. For the first two weeks
Bill Glassford and his staff will
work with a group of newcomers
to varsity competition. During the
last four weeks a squad of 83 men
will work together.
One of the top chores on hand
is rebuilding a starting offensive
line from tackle to tackle. Last
year's starters will be graduated
in June.
Freshmen will undoubtedly be
in the heat of the battle for front
line replacements.
Some of the top frosh contend
ers for Joe McGill's pivot posi
tion include Jay Benedict, Jeffer
son, la.; Jim Oliver, Humboldt;
Jim Quinn, Omaha; and Jim
Tangdall, Superior.
Guard Candidates
Frosh candidates for the guard
berths vacated by Art Bauer and
Don Strasheim are Cliff Dale,
Falls City; Marvin Thompson,
Laurel; Don Dunbar, McCook;
Dick Thompson, Fremont; and
Paul Stoddard, Ord.
Standout yearlings trying to fill
the shoes of tackle Walt Spell
man and Charley Toogood are
Don Carlson, Shenandoah, la.;
Harvey Groth, Lincoln; John
Machisic, Turtle Creek, Pa.; Jerry
Minnick, Cambridge; and Steve
McGill, Omaha.
Frosh Ends
Frank Simmon, Burchard, and
Dick Regeier, San Luis Obispo,
Calif.; are returning for another
crack at the ends. But they will
have keen competition from such
freshman performers as Don
Dutcher, Arapahoe; Bill Giles,
Alliance; Ted James, Hoperville,
111.; Jim Senkbeil, Grand Island;
and George Bauer, Minatare.

Wyoming Accepts
Bradley Tourney
Wyoming, with a 21-8 record,
has accepted a bid to compete in
the Bradley university basketball
tourney starting Mar. 27.
Wyoming's acceptance increases
the number of teams t5 four. The
others are Toledo, Utah and Bradley.
ford's quarterback spot could be
John Bordogne of Turtle Creek,
Pa. He is a slick ball handler, a
good passer, and a fast ball car
rier. Other first-year signal call
ers are Don Norris, Omaha, and
Bud Wenk, Madison, S. D. Ray
Novak of Omaha will be tried at
both quarterback and fullback.
Halfbacks
Some of the frosh halfbacks
who may give Bob Reynolds a
race for the post include Tom
Carodine, Omaha; Bob Decker,
Omaha; Duane Gay, Beatrice;
Neil Hoppens, Harvard; and Bob
Miller, Sterling, Colorado.
Freshmen seeking the fullback
ing duties are Don Vogt, Water
town, S.D.; Dennis Emanuel,
North Bend, and Sam Sarette,
South Berwick, Me.
But the true quality of the frosh
cannot be determined until they
are tested under fire against out
side competition.
18 Lettermen
In the meantime Glassford can
mold his team around eighteen
returning lettermen. The only
returning letterman at center is
Verl Scott, Mitchell. He was
used chiefly as a lineback last
year. "
Three returning stalwarts at
defensive guards include Dick
Goll, Tekamah; Tom Harper,
Omaha; Ed Susmann, Ogallala;
and Carl Brassee, Omaha.
Ail-American Reynolds will re
turn to spark the Husker running
attack. Other letter men at the
halfback slots are Ron Clark, Ra
venna, and Tony Winey, Shelton.
Adduci
Nick Adduci, Chicago, will lead
the fullbacks. He will be backed
up by lettermen Clayton Curtis,
Laurel, and Bill Wigender,
Omaha.
The Big Sven conference direc
tors are considering lifting the
freshman participation rule start
ing with the 1951 football sea
son. This action will be for the
emergency only.
Schools which have all ready
lifted the ruling are getting first
chance at the prep stars. This
ruling would make athletes grad
uating from Nebraska high
schools eligible for varsity foot
ball at the University next fall.
Spring drills will close April
14 with a game between the Var
sity and the Alumni.

Garden Play
The Big Seven Faculty com

league rule in their annual meet

bers from participating in Madi

The rule states:
"... all intercollegiate con
tests shall be conducted within
the city of one of the two schools
involved and on grounds either
owned by or under the immediate
ntmi nf nn nr hoth of the col
leges participating. All intercol-
legiate contests snan oe wnuutwu

According to the committee,
this means that its members can't
swing east, or in any other di
rection for that matter, to par
ticipate in the money-making
doubleheader attractions.
The faculty men did not close
the door to play in the spacious
arenas completely, however. Ex
ception are made for the NCAA
and AAU tournaments, Olympic
games and trial and its own con
ference activities.

Wildcats Want Revenge
Over Sooner Cagers
By Shirley Murphy
Revenge on the Sooners for halting K-State's 13-game winning
streak in February will be one incentive K-State has to consider the
game tonight at Manhattan a "must."
The Gardnermen already have the Big Seven basketball cham
pionship wrapped up for one year, but the final contest would in
crease the Wildcat regular season record to 12-3 and the Big Seven
to 11-1 (If Iowa State falls to the Wildcats). Both records are new
highs in Kansas State basketball history.
The game is a sell-out with 13,000 fans expected to attend and
seven tri-state radio stations carrying the broadcast.
Ed LaBerge, senior sprinter at Iowa State, is the 1951 Cyclone
swimming captain.
LeBerge is a former conference sprint champion and for two
years a member of the Big Seven sprint relay championship. He holds
many records in the 50-60 and 100-yard free style events. LaBerge
is also rated as one of the strong contenders for the conference indi
vidual medley title.
The new voice relating football plays to Nebraska radio fans
next year will be Jack Payne. Payne is the new sports director for
WOW in Omaha. He aired the Sooner games last season and succeeds
Tip Saggau in his new position. ,
Bill Stovall, biggest frog In the Sooner pool, set a new school
record of 23.2 seconds for 50 yards against Texas last week. It was
a new record at the Texas pool, too. Nebraska's pool record in the
nn.vs,rrt snrint in 23.7 seconds set bv Bob Brown. (ISC) in 1950. Pre-
vious to Brown the record was 24 seconds, attained by Marvin Grimm
of Nebraska in 1947.
The boy with all the nicknames with two games remaining in his
Junior season, maintains a point bulge over other Redwoods oi DasKet
ball's modern age of giants. In a comparison with 12 of the modern
big boys of basketball, (none under 6-feet 7-inches), Clyde Lovel
lette is on top with an average of 22.2. With one ex6eption, the other
hnv in the rnmnarison have 'graduated. Clyde only worked 46
cnmp tn reach this Deak. Bus Whitehead of Nebraska is on the list
with an average of 10.6. The next highest score to Clydes 19.3 by Bill

The University of Oklahoma's
wrestling team, rated the finest
college aggregation in the coun
try, threw the Husker matmen
by a creditable 24-5 margin Fri
day night. Standout match of the
evening was the Herb Reese-Larry
Cotton duel. Herb took the
offensive early in the match, but
was unable to close with the wily
Cotton. With but a minute re
maining in the final round,
"Rassler" Reese managed to grab
a leg and for Cotton, that was
the match as Reese won hand
ily 3-1.
In the 177 lb. match, Joe But
ler, Oklahoma's Big Seven champ,
ran into trouble before subduing
game Harley Richardson 11-4.
Butler displayed plenty of wres
tling savvy in outclassing the
willing Smithfield boy.
Johnson Pinned
Frank Marks, former .Oklaho
ma high school champ, pinned
Husker Al Johnson with 1:33 gone
in the third round. The match
was closely contested until the
final period when Johnson evi
dently ran out of steam.
Phil Smith, who spent the aft
ernoon in a steambath to make
the weight, took an 11-2 decision
from 157 pounder Dave Mackie.
He showed no signs of it as he
groaned his way to a verdict over
Mackie.
In the 147 lb. match, Bryan
Rayburn won a hard fought vic
tory over Husker Ken Fisher. The
match was a tossup for two pe
riods, but as Ken began to tire,
the Sooner lad rolled ahead to
gain a 23-11 margin.
Sooner Tommy Evans capital
ized on experience to pin Soph.
Loop To Abide
By Telecast Ban
Big Seven officials announced
tVia uroalronri that, ihp fnn-
I JVtl If A IV. TT ..fcv...v -
fference would abide by the NCAA
ban on live television. The ncaa
in its meeting at Dallas last Jan
uary voted to extend its ban on
television for another year.
The Big Seven faculty commit
tee instructed its members to
stay within its ruling.
Reaves Peters, Executive Sec
retary of the loop, said tne con
ferences faculty committee has
talked with several sponsors in
terested in the delayed television
idea, but that it would be some
time before details could te
worked out. The conference lead
pro nrf wnrklnff on a dan to cive
the public delayed telecasts of
Perry Leitel in 2:24 of the second
period.
Harold Gillian and Jack Blu-
baugh continued their mat rival
ry while battling to a draw.
Gilly, returning Conference
champ, and Blubaugh, ranking
A.A.U. competitor, turned in a
fine exhibition of wrestling and
sportsmanship.
Bill Borders, Oklahoma's 123 lb.
Big Seven champ, won a 14-6
match over Ken Brown from Ne
braska. Ken kept pace during
the opening onslaught but fell
short at the final count.
The Sooner match rounds out
the Husker mat season with only
the Big Seven meet at Iowa State
remaining on their schedule. The
Sooners, defending conference
champs, are favored to capture
team honors, but individuals
from Nebraska, Colorado and Iowa
State are expected to keep the
Sooners jumping.
