The Nebraska basketball team
will run into what might well be
its toughest non-conference foe
of the season when it meets the
veteran-studded Gophers from
Minnesota this Saturday.
Adding to the dismay of
Coach Harry Good is the an
nouncement that Joe Goad re
ceived a sprained ankle in prac
tice Wednesday and will miss
the fray. Hie ankle is hot fractured.
Good has been taking treat
ments from the corps of Husker
trainers and will receive medical
treatment in the student health
for the rest of the week.
With Joe out, Coach Harry
Good will have only one other
starter to carry the burden.
Jim Buchanan is the only other
first stringer with this year's
care outfit.
Nothing has been definitely de
cided concerning who will fill
the vacancy of the Lincoln jun
ior, but Good indicated that either
Jim Snyder or Clarence Cook will
get the nod.
Snyder is a veteran of the
1950-51 squad and rot in enough
playing time to win a letter.
Cook is the former all-state
ruard at McCook high schooL
Coach Ozzie Cowles will bring
his northland giants into Lincoln
with plenty of experience behind
them. Cowles has a multitude of
both experience and giants, that
is.
For example, a look at the start
ing lineup shows the starting
Gopher lineup averaging over
6' 2" and the chart shows their
average weight 203, a mark that
would cause many a football
coach to rub their hands.
Dick Means, former all -state
basketball player from Lincoln
high, will be one of the senior
guards opening for the Minne
sota five. Means weighs 180
and stands 6'1".
At the other forward position
will be Glen Reed. A 183 pound,
6' Zlhn sophomore, Reed hails
from the state of Wisconsin. His
ability speaks for itself when one
finds that Cowles has access to
two other senior cagers at the
same nosition.
startinc at center for the
Gophers will be sophomore Ed
ward Kalafat. Weighing 244 and
standins 6' fiVt". Kalafat was the
main feature in the Gophers' 58-
54 loss to Bradley, This Montana
ace looks like another Jim Me
Intyre in the making.
Opening guards ior tne norm
land quintet will be Arthur An
derson and Bob Gelle. Ander
son is a senior weighing 195
and measuring 6' 4" toll. An
derson is also from Wisconsin
and Is a two year letterman.
Bob Gelle, also a Gopher foot
ball performer, will fill the other
guard spot with his 215 pounds
filling out a 6' 3" frame. He is
the only starter on the team that
hails from Minnesota,
From the experience .angle,
Coach Cowles' squad is composed
of seven seniors, three juniors,
seven sophomore and two fresh
men. It becomes quite apparent
that the two sophomore starters
must be pretty sharp to beat out
senior members with two years
experience with the team.
Stan Matzke will take the
other forward spot and Bill
Johnson will open at center for
the scarlet crew. Buchanan and
sophomore Fred Seger will
spearhead the Cornhuskers from
their guard positions.
A run-down of the Nebraska
lineup shows the possibili4y of
two freshman starters; two soph
omore starters; and one senior.
This leaves the Huskers with a
great gap of inexperience for a
victory.
"The boys will pick up needed
experience against the Gophers.
It will take time for the boys to
become accustomed to college
basketball." He was referring to
the Iowa Teachers, Good said.
"we showed possibilities. We need
a grerat deal of Improvement in
the way of team play," offense
and individual defense.
Probable starting lineups:

J. Snyder
Stan Matzke

The World Champion Yankees
announced a cut back Wednesday
in radio and- TV coverage of their
1952 games in response to "an ap
peal by minor league boss George
M. Trautman for "reasonable restraint."
Trautman warned at the
minors' opening business session
that the "umbrella" of "highly
colored" . big league broadcasts
and telecasts threatens to destroy
the small circuits .
Main Features Start
State: "Hurricane Island," 2:11,

The Yankees immediately an
nounced they will authorize no
national network or "game of the
day" presentations and will cut
other broadcast activities wher
ever possible.
Trautman's remarks came as
the minor leaguers rolled up their
sleeves to tackle problems after
two convention days spent prin
cipally in their annual player
draft.
The minors' executive pointed
out that the number of leagues
under his jurisdiction has declined
from 59 to 49 in the past two
years with attendance falling
from 43,700,000 to 27,500,000.
Baseball Commissioner Ford C.
rYick urged - major and minor
executive to co-operate more
closely and not "sit in their own
moated castles" selfishly unaware
of each other's problems.

TED BEEG
No Previous
Experience
To Wrestler
BY GEORGE PAYNICH
Sports Staff Writer
Wrestling offers the average
college youth a wonderful oppor
tunity for participation in inter
collegiate athletics.
Husker wrestling coach AI
Partin believes that for the lad
too small for basketball or not
talented enough for the grid
sport, wrestling provides a na
tural outlet for some sort of
athletic action.
Partin also believes that the mat
sport is one of the few college
sports not requiring previous ex
perience. He cites last year's
squad as an example. Of the
eight lettermen of the 1951 squad
only four had had previous ex
perience.
Partin said the four boys with
no experience had developed
quickly. This was possible due
to a little interest and work.
With the loss of key men due
to graduation, Partin is again
looking to newcomers to bolster
his squad.
the University, Ed has been a
pro ballplayer for four years.
Berg started his professional
career in 1947 when he was a
freshman at the University. Since
the fall semester of every year,
then he has gone to school in
dropping out every spring to
play baseball.
After signing with the St Louis
Cardinals, Ed, a second baseman,
was sent to Tallassee, Ala., the
Redbirds' affiliate in the Class D
Georgia-Alabama, Ontario, a Card
farm club in the Pony League,
also a Class D circuit.
Berg played the keystone po
sition for two years at Hamil
ton, and in his last season was
chosen the team's most popu
lar player.
Ed has decided to quit the dia
mond sport for a while, in order
to finish his education. He plans
to major in journalism. When
he finishes school, wants to be
connected with baseball in some
way.
What did he get out of his pro
career? Here's what Ed has to
say:
I got to travel all around the
country, ad I was able to meet
a lot of different people from
so many different places."
During his four-year tenure in
the Cardinal organization, Berg
played ball with some promising
young stars. Some of his team
mates were Ben Boyer, who later
played for the Omaha Cards;
Tom Keating, who played for
Rochester in the Triple A Inter
national League; Dave Johnston,
who .went to the A Columbus
(Georgia) Cardinals; an Bob Tif
fenauer who is listed on the "big"
Cards.
Although Berg is ineligible for
college baseball because of his
pro career, he doesn't feel that
it was a mistake to play pro
ball. Ed said he thought the
Cardinals had always given
him a fair deal, and that they
were one of the best clubs in
baseball.
Ed's not through with baseball,
though. The redheaded seconded
sacker plans to play semipro ball
next summer, just to keep in
touch with the game.
There once teat a girl named
Ruth,
Who for boys had a very
tweet tooth,
She upped and asked Paul,
To the Black Masque Ball;
Now her data book is full
it's the truth.
