Two men from Champion Phi

A All-Star basketball te&m of
1951. The Phi Delts got Dave
Graef and Chick Battey at guard
find forward, respectively, oh the
first team to lead the balloting.
The Frat "A" All-Star lineup
Is the fourth of five such teams
to appear in The Daily Nebras
lean. The final and most import'
ant aggregation will be found in
tomorrow's paper in the form of
the All-University All-Intra
mural basketball team
With the two Phi Delts on the
first team are Bob Dwehus of
Pioneer House, Mel Williams of
Brown Palace and Jerry Ander
son of Phi Kappa Psi at forward,
guard and center, respectively.
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.

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

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

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. " '
Meissner
The high jump event will fea
ture Purdue relay's winner, Dick
Meissner. Thode will also show
his wares in this event.
Husker shot putters Paul
Grimm- and Lowell Neilson will
be out to show up the Buffaloes
strong men. This event could
possibly be held outdoors, but on
latest report ft will be held in
doors also. ,
Warren Monson will make his
debut in the javelin event. Mon
son was a point winner in last
year's outdoor conference meet
and will posssibly be throwing
the iron toothpick over 190 feet.
Discus
Coach Hanscom was planning
to hold trials for the trio to com
pete fn the discus event. Neilson
already earned his way In com

ing the platter over 130 feet. The
other two competitors have not

Bascballcrs Start Season
Against Drake on April 6, 7
By Marshall Kushner
Nebraska's baseballers will
open their 1951 baseball season
against the Drake Bulldogs Fri
day at 3 p. m. on the Husker
baseball diamond
The Huskers may not be used
to the brisk outdoor air as yet
"Monday was our first day
outside and we're trying to get
as acquainted as we can with
working outdoors," said Coach
Tony Sharpe.
The Husker diamond dazzlers
have been working out in the
fieldhouse for the past month.
Coach Sharpe has been sched
uling intra squad games to give
the boys the feel of actual play.
During these games, Sharpe has
been able to get a fairly good
idea of who he can call on for
duty this year.
Sharpe will open the initial
contest with Johnny Rego at the
hot spot corner. The third base
man will also act as lead off man
for the team.
Bob Reynolds will handle the
keystone sack and will bat sec
ond in the Nebraska lineup.
Diers
Bob Diers, swift centerfielder
gained this position and will bat
third in the lineup. Jerry Dunn
will patrol the left field gardens
and will take his place as clean
up man on the team.
Ray Mladovich will take the
initial sack, and Bill Fitzgerald
will play right field and will take
the fifth and sixth spots in the
batting order.
Shortstop will be handled by
Bill Jensen, and Bob Lohrbere
will see starting duty behind the
plate. These boys will bat 7th
and 8th, respectively.
Sharpe plans to use three,
pitchers for the Drake game. H
will send Bill Anderson, Dick
McCormick, and Del Kopf for
three innings apiece. Sharpe
called his mound staff "a good
potential crew" but would know
more about them after they got
actual game experience. .
Mladovich
In the intra-squad games held
thus far, Mladovich, Dunn, Rego,
and Reynolds have shown con
siderable power at the plate.
Mladovich smashed a towering
home run Tuesday afternoon.
