Graef and Williams are the outstanding players on the 1951 team. Both we're unanimous in the voting. Ball Handling Both emphasized ball-handling over scoring although Williams led the Palacers in that depart ment, also. Graef was no sloutch when it came to scoring either. He was deadly on his long throws. Behind Williams, Brown Pal ace advanced to the second round of the fraternity playoffs. Graef was a steady performer for the fraternity title-winners all the way. Battey was one of the top scorers in action this year. Al though final statistics are not yet completed, he is certain to rank among the top four. He was deadly with any kind of shot and he scored heavily on tip-ins. Anderson Anderson led the Phi Psi's in scoring and rebounding. He con trolled the boards in all games and even in the only Phi Psi loss, Anderson grabbed 78 per cent of the rebounds, both of fensively and defensively. uwenus lea Pioneer to the playoffs and ball boy, the consecu- quarter-finals of the Behind the scoring handling of this big Pioneers rolled to ten tive victories before bowing, Pioneer House grabbed another nonor in placing Wes Berry on the second lineup.

Coaches' Wives Maintain Strong Interest in Athletics Sports Feature Writer BY SHIRLEY MURPHY , University of Nebraska coaches' Wives have one big thing in com mon. They all enjoy their hus band's particular sport themselves and go to all the games they can. JttoDDies ana interests vary greatly, however. Mrs. Alma Glassford is especiaHy interested in tennis, swimming and her lit tie son, Gary. Mrs. Ann Good likes horseback riding, golf, ping-pong and bridge During the summer, the family goes to Indiana to spend a vaca tion swimming and fishing. Mrs. Good rates one of three titles in the sports world. She is either the coach's wife or Joe's or Larry's mother. Coach Good is the University mentor and Joe a varsity player. Larry is a high school star. Mrs. Weir Interior decoration is the main interest of Mrs. Josephine Weir. She collects antiques and is a gardener, too. Mrs. Weir says that a coach's wife becomes truly interested in the boys that her husband works with. One bashful boy who frequently visited the Weir's home didn't feel as free to call out, "Hi Mom," like the other boys did when they saw Mrs. Weir. The Weirs tried very hard to make him feel at ease, but he was just too bash ful. One day, Mrs. Weir went to the train depot to meet the team and her husband when they came in. The bashful boy leaped off the train and greeted Mrs. Weir with "Hi Toots." He was as sur prised as she. "I didn't know anything about baseball until I met Tony," said Mrs. Ruth Sharpe. Now she, too, loves the sport and attends every game. Her interests center around home and the children, and sports at the University. Mrs. Sharpe A coach's wife really gets to know the boys on the team," she said, "gets to meet and know them." At one of the football games, Mrs. Sharpe found a re semblance to her husband, "That boy kicks like Tony bats," she cried, "straight up!" Mrs. Helen Higgenbotham says that any coach's wife's life is full Carodine., Vogt Bordogna Star In Practice Tuesday's football drills were highlighted by three first year men Tom Carodine, Don Vogt and John Bordogna. Quarterback Bordogna posses ses a cat-like sense of balance and is hard to knock off his feet. Vogt and Carodine are fast and tricky on their feet. Standout blockers were tackles George Prochaska and Wayne Handshy. Both repeatedly threw blocks to spring the ball carriers into the clear. The backfield in 1951 will be heavier. The lightest man out in Bob Decker at 165, and Vogt is the heaviest at 222. The line, however, lacks both size and ex pefiMice. The offensive backfield Tues Iey Included: Carodine, Decker, George Gohfle, Bill Wingender, and Vogt naif Backs. Ray Novak, and Nick Adduci, iuilbacks. Bordogna, Quarterback. . Linemen were Tony Winey, Clayton Curtis, Joe Ponseigo, Cliff Dale and Jim Franscen, giisrds. Ken Scrjoeder, and Verl Scojt, centers. Frank Simon, George Payvich, Hi.1 Giles and Harold JRobeiwun, eius, and Pro haska, Handshy, Harvey Goth and Mervin Anderson, tackles. Glassford is readying his team for the Varsity-Alumni game which will be a feature of the All-Sports Day on April 14. Cast year the varsity was hard pressed to gain a 13-13 tie, and there will be plenty of alumn around to make things hot for the varsit. of pathos and humor. Her inter ests and hobbies are all sports. She firmly believes that a wife in any profession must give her husband the moral support he needs. Mrs. Mary Ellen Franklin's main interest is the children, but she shares her husband s enthusi asm for golf and is an ardent par ticipant in the sport. Likes Sports Sports, especially golf and swimming, are hobbies of Mrs. Judy Davis. She is a reading fan, too. Her favorite type of books include historical, romance and adventure stories. Mrs. Davis is a fairly new Lincoln resident. When she first moved here, a salesman appeared at the door trying to sell a cemetery lot. Said Mrs. Davis, "But my hus band is a football coach and we don't know how long we will be here." The salesman smiled as if to say, "That proves my point." Mrs. Joan Prochaska is the only one of the wive's that attended the University with her husband. As a result, she is very interested in the University's sports. Her husband and she have many memories to share includ-; ing the Rose Bowl game. She tries to go to all the games and ner other interest is their four-year-old son. Mrs. Hanscom Comments "After 25 years, you should en joy a sport," commented Mrs. Hazel Hanscom. She does enjoy sports and couldn't imagine her husband doing anything else. "Coach's wives hear many dif ferent comments at games," she saia, "ana think they're all a joke." Mrs. Hanscom's other in terests are painting silhouettes and doing needle-point work. Mrs. Helen Fife agrees that many jokes are pulled in the bleachers. In regard to her hus band and his sport, she said, "Once football is in their blood, it's there to stay." She knits and plays golf as hobbies. First Year This is Mrs. Genevieve Partin's first year at Nebraska. She be lieves that supporting her hus band is the only part a wife can play in his sport's career. Her main interest is centered around their small baby. She also likes tennis, swimming, spectator sports and" reading. Mrs. Janet Clark is a earden and antique enthusiast. She likes Lincoln and likes snorts and at tends every time she can. Sorry to say, Mrs. Geier, Mrs. Lepley and Mrs. Janetos could not be reached at home. Probably they would have shared the definite likeof their husband's profession. Dean Defends Scholarship By Jim Petersen The Big Seven has-been charged with "sacrificing all ideals for which college athletics are supposed to stand." The accusation has been made by Fritz Brnnecke, athletic di rector of the Colorado School of Mines. He also aimed it at the Southeastern and Southwest conferences. Dr. Earl Fullbrook, chairman of the conference and dean of the Nebraska college of business administration, gave an answer and an explanation to the charges. Brennecke termed "unorin- cipled" a recent Big Seven deci sion to allow board, room, books and tuition fees and incidental expenses not to exceed $15 a month to athletes. Dean Harry Carlson, athletic director at the University of Colorado, stated that the pay ments would not exceed $75 a month. He also said this would be the top amount, and in all probability Colorado would not offer that much. 75 Offer Aid In reference to what Bren necke termed an "all-expense scholarship" io athletes, he stated "obviously there are many schools which can not afford this scholarship program. In fact oi tne o4 colleges that sponsor intercollegiate football, theia are probably not more than 75 who can carry such a financial "burden." In addition to this Brennecke asserted that "by legalizing the all-expense scholarship the Big oeven, ooutnwest ana other con lerences will have to match it or they will get only the athletes oi mienor caliber." Little Effect In reply to thip Fullbrook an swered that the scholarship pro gram of the Big Seven would not have "much, if any, effect, on other colleges and universities in the area." . , "The Big Seven felt it establishing a maximum aid pro gram, and that it might result in less subsidization of athletes." "After all, the primary con cern of all colleges and universi ties is scholastic achievement, and it's a pretty well established fact that a man can't give full consideration to his scholastic program, compete in athletics, and earn his way all at the same time." By Marshall Kushner Nebraska will open its outdoor season in a somewhat unusual manner this season. The Husk ers will face the Colorado Buf faloes on the letters' indoor track April 7. This means that all events will be run fndoors, with the exception of the Javelin and the discus. There will be no 220 yard dash and the short sprint will be 60 instead of 100 yards, Coach Ike Hanscom will be making the trip and tutoring the squad in the absence of Coach m weir, coacn tianscom was still uncertain about the travel ing squad as this article went to press. Since the loss of former Husk er cinderman Hobe Jones, Wen dell Cole, Wayne Whitaker, and Ken Jacobs, some of the scarlet runners are going to be called upon for extra heavy running duty. Dale Schnackel will be called upon for points in the 880 to fill the gap left by Jones. Gene Yelken will also double in the 880 from his usual mile race. . Hurdlers Don Becker and Dan Tolman will have to be at their best to top Buff hurdler ace Merwin Ho del. Tolman nipped Hodel in the dual meet in Lincoln during last year's indoor season For the 60 yard dash, Lee Alexander will match talents with Colorado's Augie Raso and Dole Kelley. Alexander's chief assistance should come from Bob Barchus and Irv Thode. Shelly Jacobs are still, out with a leg injury received in the early part of the indoor campaign. The Huskers will be powerful m the pole vault event. Don "Moose" Cooper and Len Kehl should be at top strength and condition for this meet. Cooper took a second place at the Pur due Relays last week-end. in the broad jump, irv Thode and Glenn Beerline will supply the Husker point hopes. Both boys will be shooting to maintain their steadily improving dis tances. Both boys were over the 23 foot mark in the final Big Seven conference meet.
