HERB EEESE . . unbeaten defending Big Seven champion, will
carry the Husker colors into the Big Seven meet.
By Glen Nelson.
Nebraska's wrestlers will get
their most important test of the
season Friday when the Big Sev
en championships get under way
at Norman, Oklahoma.
Oklahoma, an undefeated team
which rates top place in the na
tion, is expected to sweep the
meet The Sooners will have men
seeded in all eight weight class
es. Coach Al Parkin predicted that
the Oakies will possibly win six
first places, with the other four
entered schools scrambling for
second place.
Nebraska has a very fine
chance of winning second place
honors. Iowa State, led by 137
pound Bob Wilson, should give
the Huskers their most trouble in
the race for runnerup position.
Win Two, Lose Two.
The Cornhuskers defeated Iowa
State and Kansas State and lost
to Oklahoma find Colorado in
dual meet during the season. Ok
lahoma downed the Nebraskans
decisively last week, but the Col
orado loss came during an early
season slump. However, it offers
no proof that the Buffs will be
Yelkiii Hits 56 for Record as
Independents Open Playoffs
Geologists Romp; Alpha Sigs
Roll; All Aggie Teams Fail
"Jumping-Jack" Yelkin, scoring
cog of the powerful Geologists,
basketball machine shattered the
Individual scoring record for the
Intramural cage game Wednesday
right to open first-round play of
the independent teams with a
bang.
Jack powered 27 field goals and
four free throws through the
meshes for a new all-time high
of 56 points.
Behind this phenominal feat,
the Geologists rolled to a 82-22
first round victory in the Inde
pendent playoffs. The team that
was forced to accept this anhilia
tion was the Dusters.
Beats McArthnr
Yelkin's amazing total is five
more than the old record of 51
set just 17 days ago by Don Mc
Arthur of Phi Delta Phi. It was a
general concensus of opinion that
McArthur's record would stand
for a long, long time, but Yelkin
and the Geologists had other
ideas.
With record-smashing in mind,
Yelkin's teammates continually
fed the ball to him and watched
him uncannily ring up the points.
What makes the feat even more
astonishing is the fact that Jack
owned only 12 points at halftone.
Five fielders were credited to
him in the third quarter and in
the final stanza he went wild with
17 shots swishing the nets for 34
points.
Waive Free Throws
The Dusters tried every con
ceivable way of stopping Yelkin's
scorine orev and as the fouls
piled 'up on the Duster crew, the)
rock-collectors waived tne iree
throws and tried for the two
pointers. The Dusters were in the game
for the first quarters. They trailed
cmly by scores of 8-14 and 13-24
fct the end of the two initial per
iods. Ron Ohnoutka tallied ten more
pointers for the' Geology outfit
to claim the tunner-up position of
the game. Rod Pope led the Dust
ers with seven points.
Phi Delta Fhi Romps
The top Independent team, Phi
Delta Phi, had little trouble win
ning their first round contest. The
Fiddle-de-fecs romped by the Pi
rates 50-21 in a game pl-ayed on
the Ag College floor. The score
book for this contest was not
available at this jmnting, so top
sewers are not known.
Alpha Sigma Phi turned on the
heat in the second quarter of their
contest with the Flamors to win
easily, 42-24. The Alpha Sigs in
Teased their first quarter -7
lead to 21-7 at half time, holding
the Ag delegation scoreless.
Avred Christensen was the big
gun of the rejuvinated Alpha Sig
attack, getting a night's total oi
18. Vera Hruza added ten more
to the victors' caiwe. Carl LeiBing
topped the Plamor score-getters
with eight.
Meet Groloeittts
The win gives the Alpha Sigs
the doubtful pleasure of meeting
th Geologist in a second round
cor test scheduled for Thursday
night.
dawned as one of the major
upsets of the tourney thus far was
the Wednesday nigbt defeat of
Ag Men's Club by upstart Phi
Alpha Delta. The Aggies, co
champions of the Ag College
league, were figured to fare quite
well in the post-season playofls
but didn't figure on the Paddies,
To win, the lawyers had to
ctave off u denrate Ag Men
put away their basketballs for the
year.
Phillips, with the forfeit win,
will try again Thursday night
against the Paddies.
Lilies Ousted
A similar situation occurred in
the Dorm A Cornets-Lilies con
test. The Lilies were pulling away
from the Comets in the third
quarter of that game when a ring
er was observed in the Lily line
up and that was all.
The Lily expulsion was the
fourth since the opening of the
playoffs. Wednesday, Delta Tau
Delta "B' and Sigma Nu ,B" were
ousted for the same reasons.
But back to the fair and
square" contests, another major
upset was recorded when unher
alded Nebraska Co-op gave the
Ag YMCA a basketball lesson,
31-24.
The Aggies were co-champs of
the Ag League with the Ag Men
and suffered the same fate.
Co-op pulled away from the
Aggies in the second quarter and
were never seriously threatened
again. Halftime score was 12-8.
Rrougbton Tops
Charlie Broughton and Gene
Henzlik led the victors in the
scoring department with 12 and
eight respectively. Cal German
topped the Ag Y scoring with
eight counters.
The fourth Ag League repre
sentative followed the pattern of
the other three and were ousted
College Frosh. The Warriors, led
by center Marv Lawton, won by
a 38-20 count
The victors ran up a 16-4 first
quarter lead and increased their
margin at will. They led 31-11
going into the final period.
Lawton's 17 markers topped all
scoring while teammate Scott
Cast added six more tallies to the
Warrior cause. Lanspa totaled
nine and Brown six for the Dents.
The Warriors meet the Geolo-gist-Aalph
Sig victor in a game
scheduled for Friday.
In Interdenominational playoff
contests, Newman Club avenged
their only loss of the year by
downing Presby House, 6-28. The
Catholics were behind only for
the first six minutes and then
took over for good.
Lutherans Drop I-V
The Lutheran Student House
won the right to meet Newman
Club by blasting InterVarsity
Wednesday night, 49-21. The Lu
therans were never headed in
winning this one.
Both Denora contests were
played on the Ag College floor
and so ton scorers are not avail
able at this time. The same holds
for the City YMCA triumph over
the Pill Rollers.
Citv Y won easily over the

Norman.
Injuries have humbled the Ne
braska team and forced a change
in their lineup for the conference
meet
Dave Mackie will not appear
in the 157 pound division. He is
sidelined by injuries and will be
replaced by Ed Lane, junior from
Council Bluffs, la.
Ken Brown, who received a
knee injury in the Oklahoma

had been feared that Brown's
knee would not be in shape by
the end of the week.
Reese Leads.
Herb Reese, senior from Oma
ha and defending Big Seven
heavyweight champion, will lead
the Husker efforts at Norman.
Herb closed out Nebraska's dual
wrestling season with 43 points

Nebraska's Cornhuskers rang
down the curtain on their basket
ball season by taking a 68-57 de
feat at the hands of the Missouri

Yet today, the telephone U a part of

many people in to many ways.
The telephone is an indispcasable
tool of business and government to

and defense could not be carried on
without it It serves in minor emer
