Finale For Husker
Winter Sports
By Shirley Murphy
Winter sports teams at Nebraska are in the finales. The Husker
Tiger game at Columbia last night ended the cagers floor action
for the season.
Coach Hollie Lepley's swimming crew journeys to Ames for
the Big Seven championships on Saturday. Coach Al Partin's
wrestling team competes in Norman on Saturday for the Big Seven
honors.
Merwin Hodel, Colorado's big fullback, is one of the finest
hurdlers in the midwest. Out of 17 starts in collegiate competition
he has hit the tape first 11 times. The big 210-pounder seems to
have a special jinx hovering over him connected with the annual
Big Seven conference indoor meet, however.
Last year Hodel won the low hurdles at the meet and tied
the Big Seven record in the highs during a preliminary heat. Then
in the finals of the highs he fell on the first hurdle and didn't
finish.
This year Hodel was determined to make up for that blunder.
But the day the Colorado team left for Kansas City, big Merv
was strolling across the campus and stepped on a manhole cover.
The big iron griddle flipped on end and Hodel ended up with a
bad leg and hip bruise.
Result? He didn't even qualify in the low hurdles and finished
third in the highs at Kansas City.
Wilbur "Sparky" Stalcup, Missouri basketball coach, has a new
nickname "Sparkle Plenty." Kansas U.'s Phog Allen reputedly
hung the name on him. Phog Is rather a sparkler himself.

to facility difficulties.
Of the remaining four, Iowa
State and defending champion,
Oklahoma are 6lated to gather
in most of the poinK Both are
taking potent outfits to the loop
meet and are practically rated a
toss-up as to who is the favorite.
Huskers Remember Cyclones
Iowa State's strength has been
tested by the Cornhuskers. The
Cyclones crushed the Husker
mermen early in February by a
58 to 26 count. Only Eddie
Craren in the diving and Buele
Balderson in the 200-yard back
stroke supplied first place points
for Nebraska in that meet.
Iowa State sprint star, Bob
Brown, is the current favorite
Brown turned in a new pool
record of :22.9 seconds for the
50-yard freestyle in the Husker
meet. The Cyclones toppled eight
records in all while disposing of
to cop the short freestyle races,
the Scarlet.
Battle of Third
Nebraska will also get stiff
competition in the battle for
third place. Colorado, already
owning a swim victory over the
Huskers, is rated a slight favorite
to squeeze past Coach Lepley's
swimmers.
The Husker swimmers have
other ideas, however, and state
that they will outfight the Buffs
to stay out of the cellar.
Coach Lepley announced his
probable starters in the event as:
1,600 meters: Georg Hill, Homer
Munson. Jerry Desmond.
One-meter diving: Eddie Craren, Pete
Slusar.
60-yard freestyle: Ted Kanamine, Tom

The 1951 intramural cage play
offs got under way with a bang
Tuesday night as 15 teams earned
the chance at another contest
while a like number put away
their basketballs for the year.
The first round games followed
the form sheet exactly as all fa
vorites rode into the second
round.
The nearest thing to an upset
were the showings of two under
rated teams who surprised their
formidable foes by keeping with
in striking distance. The sur
prises Delta Sigma Pi and Delta
Sigma Phi were beaten by four
points and one point respectively
instead of the 20 and 15 they
were supposed to go down by.
Powerful Pioneer House, the
University's number six team,
had serious trouble with the up
start Pi's. Only a 21 point first
period kept the Pioneers in the
game.
Delta Sigma Pi slowly closed
the gap and although trailing
nine points going into the fourth
quarter, they forced the favored
Pioneers to go into a stall to win
34-30.
Bob Dwehus was practically the
scoring column for the Pioneers
as he garnered a total of 18 points
during the game. Teammate Wes
Beery added eight more. J. Lin
coln and L. Hinkley matched
Beery's eight for the Delta Pi's.
Delta Sigma Phi kept potent
Norris House, eighth fraternity
"A" team, at bay throughout the
contest only to lose by a 25-26
score. The Delta Sigs led the
Norris men 8-3 at the close of the
first quarter only to see the fa
vorites rally in the second stanza
to pull out into a 20-14 halftime
lead.
From there on in it was strict
ly a defensive affair, with Norris
staving off the Delta Sigs' des
perate attempts to tie up the con
test. Norris captured the victory
by stalling out the final two
minutes.
Al Kramer was the scoring
leader of the game as he dunked
12 counters for the winners.
Teammate Joe Babcock and Delta
Sig Bill Wilson each finished the
game with ten to their credit.
The rest of the games went
strictly to form.

Brandon with 12 counters was
the Sic En learhne scorer. Kay
Curtis ran a close second with
11. Lasse and McCracken each
got five for the TX men.

Sigma played a close contest in
their opener. Not more than 3
points separated the two teams
at any point until the Co Co boys
pulled away in the last minute
to win, 44-36. With only one
minute remaining, the score stood
at 36-36. But a cold Cornhusker
outfit suddenly caught fire and
rallied to the cause.
Harry Wray, Bob Hefflefinger
and Dick Hungerford were the
scoring cogs in the Cornhusker
machine with 12, 11 and ten
markers, respectively.
Unbeaten Phi Kappa Psi had
little trouble disposing of Theta
Chi. The Phi Psi ramblers ran
up a 61-13 score in winning. Al
though the score stood at 21-6
at halftime, it was apparent that
the Theta Chi's had no hopes of
catching up.
