Denom champion Newman club
dominates the Interdenomina
tional All-Star team of 1951. The
Catholics captured three berths
on the first team and added a
fourth on the second lineup.
The Denom All-Star lineup is
the first of five to be released
In the next few days. The team
was entirely compiled through
the votes of the individual teams
and managers themselves.
Every team was entitled to ten
votes, five for a first team and
five for a second team. No team
could vote for any of its own
players.
All but one of the Denom
teams got their ballots in by the
deadline to be counted. Each first
place was worth three points.
Presby House and the Lu
theran Student Association each
got one man named on the first
team along with the three Cath
olics. The champion Newmanites re
ceived mention through Jack
Wallentine, Bob Kroenke and
Neil Campbell at the two for
wards and a guard position, re
spectively. Clark Betcke of Presby was
awarded the other guard berth
and Lee Stauffer of the Lutherans
captured the center post.
Although the final scoring sta
tistics are not yet completed,
Wallentine has a firm grasp on
the Denom top spot. Wally held
the All-University individual

meet this year. Kehl won the Big Seven indoor event with a 13 foot

41 points against the Methodists
in early February. Although his
All-U record was later shattered,
his 41-point effort still stands as
the Denom record. Wally was the
only animous selection in the De
nom voting.
Wallentine was the main rea
son for the Catholics' third
straight Denom championship, al
though he had plenty of help.
Kroenke was another top
scorer of the Denom division. His
hook-shots were unstoppable and
his floor game left little to be
desired.
Campbell, the Newman Club
manager and stellar guard, di
rected the Catholics to the title.
His outstanding floor play earned
him the votes of the rest of the
Denom outfits.
Betcke was the top Presby
scorer and ranked high in the
all-over Denom scoring. He was

University Talent Displayed
At KK's 'Good
By Shirley Murphy
The best things in life are free!
Just ask one of the Toms or Con
nies who tried out for the Kos
met Klub musical, "Good News."
Flappers kicked their feet to
the "Varsity Drag" and a boys'
trio brought "Happy Days" to the
judges in barbershop harmony
style. Big brawn "Beef threat
ened saucy little "Babe" into ac
cepting a date with him. "Babe"
beat a gang of boys out of hard
earned money in her supposedly
first dice game.
Emotion Wins Out
One tryout gave a heart touch
ing version of the football coach
inspiring the team during the
half. As he read the lines, pas
sion overcame him and he
whipped out his handkerchief to
wipe away the tears.
A girls' trio sang "Best Things
in Life Are Free" with alternate
pasages of soft, sweet music and
jazzy Charleston swing. Some of
the singing voices were imitable
of Morton Downey, Frank Sin
atra and Betty Hutton.
The main tryouts, however,
were concerned with the leading
parts of Tom Marlowe, football
player, and Connie, who tutors
Tom in astronomy. The passage
used in the tryout was a tutoring
session between Tom and Connie
in which he told her she had a
boy friend and she desperately
tried to keep his mind engrossed
in the stars. They concluded by
singing "Best Things in Life Are
Free."
Interpretations of the charac
ters include wolfish Tom and co
quettish Connie; youthful, boyish
Tom and a sincere Connie; hand
some, but dumb Tom and sophis
ticated Connie; playboyish and
sweet; romantc and innocent; big
and slow, and patient.
The different types of Toms
and Connies kept the tryouts
moving and interesting. The
judges sat grouped around a ta
ble and wrote their criticisms
and comments. Frightened stu
dents timidly walked to the front
of the room with weak knees but
stronger hearts. They gave much
finer performances than they
thought they could.
Weak Knees
One petite little girl persuaded
a jittery male acquaintance to
practice parts with her In the
hall. The couple practiced and

every now and then to see if they

the division and received the
most points at the guard position
of any Denom player. He was
nearly unanimous in the voting.
Stauffer was top man for the
Lutherans and easily copped a
first place berth. He was rugged
under the baskets and a heavy
scorer.
The second team is composed
of players from four teams. The
Lutherans led the selections with
two men on this team.
Walt Wieland of the Lutherans
and Bill Griffin of Newman Club
are at the forward positions,
Norm Sithan of Presby is the
number two center, and Glen
Johnson of LSA and Rich Satter
field of the Methodist House at
guards round out the second team.
Nine men received enough
votes to earn honorable mention.
They are from Newman Club,
Presby House, InterVarsity, Uni
versity YMCA, Baptist House and
Lutheran House.
The deadline for votes in the
fraternity "B" selections is
Thursday at 3 p.m. and votes for
the Independent and Fraternity
All-Star teams will be accepted
until 3 p.m. Monday.
News' Tryouts
had a chance to give their try
out. Finally with weak knees
that were typical of most of the
persons trying out, the couple
gave their version of Tom and
Connie.
The only tryout contrary to
fashion was one boy who tried
out to please his buddies. When
asked to perform again he stam
mered, "But I don't want a part."
This just goes to prove that not
everyone recognizes his own tal
ent. When "Good News" goes to
"press," the best talent of the
University will be displayed.

Buffs Seek First Victory
As Basehallers Meet Mines
With Freddy Johnson, only ex
perienced member of the squad
outside the pitching staff, side
lined for the season by a reoc
curence of his bad knee, the Col
orado baseball team will face an
unknown Colorado Mines squad
this Friday and Saturday.
The Friday game will be at
Golden at 3:30 p.m., Saturday's
tilt in Boulder will start at
2 p.m.
The Buffs dropped three
straight on their spring road trip
to Arizona. But, says Coach
Frank Prentup, "our pitching
looked better than the scores in
dicated. Then we lost Johnson,
Don Shirk was injured, and Joe
Nix got hit on the arm."
Prentup feels his ball club will
improve as the season progresses.
"We have lots of hustle, al
though the whole squad is green.
With ordinary improvement we
will have 'a pretty fair ball club
by midseason."
Both Prentup and Mines coach

BETTE'S GIFT
ROBERT E. SWAN,
N-Club Chooses
Mid-Century Football Team
By Marshall Kushner
Ever thought of what players
might combine to form a all-time
Nebraska "dream team?" That
was the idea of the Lincoln
Journal in its recent sponsorship
of a poll of the Nebraska N
club to select their nominees.
The "N" club members and
alumni responded with 430 bal
lots. It was difficult for many
to select their teams since "we
have had so many great players."
-Leading the balloting was Ed
Weir, former great tackle of the
Nebraska track coach was a mem-1923-1925
campaigns. The present
ber of Walter Camp's Ail-American
teams in '24-'25. On the basis
of giving five points for first team
nomination and three points for
second team, Weir compiled a to
tal of 1885 votes.
Trailing Weir was George Sauer
who polled 1507 ballots. Sauer
was the former Lincoln high star
who went on to win recognition
playing with the Scarlet squads
in 1931-33 period. He attained a
berth on many Ail-American
teams In 1933.
Reynolds
In the third place spot in the
poll was Nebraska's greatest
touchdown maker. With 1497
votes, many experts of the pig
skin have called Bobby Reynolds
"Mr. Touchdown." His numerous
accomplishments during the past
term were climaxed by almost
unanimous Ail-American selec
tion. Completing the first team line
positions were Steve Hokuf, the
Crete, Nebraska ZOO pounaer wno
was under the tutoring of D. X.
Bible. Hokuf played fine defen
sive ball for the Cornhusker
eleven in 1929-30-31 at left end.
Warren Alfson gained the left
guard slot. A literal rock at his
lineman's position, Alfson was a
strong link in the chain that
towed Nebraska's 1940 aggrega
tion to the Rose Bowl.
Lyman
Speaking of "links", it was ag
gressive, die-hard Roy "Link" Ly
man who captured the first team
right tackle spot. Lyman had no
high school experience in football

Charley Brock learned the cen
ter position. He scored the next
highest total ballot count on the
line behind Weir. The all
around athlete had what might
be known as the "sixth sense."
He diagnosed enemy plays and
was always a "Johnny on tha
spot" when the chips were
down.
Dan McMullen and Clarence
Swanson completed the line at
the right guard and right end
positions. McMullen also special
