t. Me Cyclones, ymrcps 75- By RON' GIBSON Sport Staff Writer Nebraska's usually hapless eag er! chose Monday night to kick over the traces and upset a fa vored Iowa State team by a 75-53 count. Coach Harry Good's Corn buskers took advantage of the Cyclones' frlgldness by controll er the boards and kept them selves well out of the reach of the visitors. Jim Buchanan was the number one shotmaker for the Huskers. "Bucky" tossed 18 points through the nets to come even closer to Bob Pierce's all-time Nebraska scoring mark for a single season. Buchanan is now only 20 points behind Pierce's record. Delmar "Shlrttail" Diercks led the Cyclones with 12 points. The usually reliable Jim Stange could muster only six . for the victors before fouling out late In the third quarter. The Huskers, who had been ity line and fliDDed in a two pointer from under the nets, but the Huskers managed an 11 -point halftime margin despite the lofty lowan s enort. Nebraska's second-period .splurge was only a prelude to a wua third quarter that put the home club decisively out In front. Six Cornhuskers combined to score 18 points in the third canto while holding the visitors to six points. Freshmen Willard Fagler, Stan Matske and Paul Fred strom led the way with 13 points among themselves. Iowa State outscored the Husk. ers 16-15 in the last quarter, as Coach Good swept the bench. Buchanan stayed in to collect five more points and lead his mates in clinching the win. It was Nebraska's third win against seven defeats In con ference play. And it was a revenge win, for the Cyclones had dropped beaten twice previously by Iowa j tn8 Hugkerp twice previously, State, never trailed Coach Chick Sutherland's quintet. The score was tied only once, at 9-9 midway in the first period. It was the shooting of pivot man Bill Johnson that got the home team started. Johnson got seven points in the initial pe riod on two under-basket ef forts, a nifty hook shot and a free throw. Buchanan added three field ers to the Cornhuskers' first- period total.

Chicago. teller Gets Starling Berth ils Bill Lienhard Sideline There isn't a player on Phog Al len's squad pulling a heavier load than John Keller, as Kansas heads down the home stretch of the 1952 Big Seven title chase. Yet you'll have to ask the most Intense Jayhawker fan to identify the Jayhawks' new for ward. He's been around two years but has faced the misfor tune of substituting for an All Atnerican center named Clyde Lovellette. . - It's no wonder fanTare bound 4b ask. "Who is this guy?" Keller umph. Furthermore he contri buted solidly to KU's hustling defense and limited the Cyclones to 19 shots from the field dur ing the final half. As a matter of fact, Keller al ways has been regarded as a good I all-round player in this camp since he enrolled fresh from earn ina an All-American junfor col 'lege berth at Garden City, under Ed Hall, one time JayhawK tnree' Isport letterman.

But he'll start his third con secutive game against Missouri here Monday night as the Jay hawkers once again pick up their determined pursuit of league-leading Kansas State. How did he work his way irom banging home four goals la as many shots to fuel a 65-50 tri who's averaging 26 points per game and the Kansana fre quently needing them to snare closely played battles. Further more, Keller was a post-man In purest form. He had never played anything else through eight seasons of Junior high, high school and Junior college carfnr. Allen had hoped to convert the auick-handed plainsman at the Strictly Kushner By MARSHALL KUSHNER Sports Editor Kansas Indoor Winner At the nresent moment. Nebraskan sports staff writers are busy doping out who will win the 1952 Big Seven indoor track meet. From all indications, the Kansas Jayhawks look to be a solid bet. But don't count your chickens! The form chart for the meet will come out Thursday, so the coaches can relax during the meet since they'll know how they'd come out Thursday. Knix Jones, last year's tabulator on the conference cinder carni val, selected Ed Weir's trackmen to upset Missouri in the Kansas City affair. Sure 'nuf, the scarlet team brought back the bacon. So, don't look that big chart over too lightly. Ed Weir's Husker track teams have won ten out of a possible 25 indoor and outdoor conference championships since 1939 when Weir took over the helms.

Heading the festivities again this year will be that football fiasco between the Nebraska alumni and varsity football teams. It should be a sight to see Coach Tom Novak's marauders last 60 strenuous minutes against the varsity crew. Since Nagle's married, the team will have to use the T-formation. (They were going to use the "single" wing.) Lawyer Mueller will be stiff-arming his clients ana letting tne defense rest when he gets too tired. Attention All Chancellors! Bill Callahan fMissouri nublicity chief) sends along a little scholastic report from Columbia.

CU After Grappling Revenge Colorado's wrestling team fig ures to have the revenge motive tossed up by Colorado State when the two tangle Thursday night in Greeley. The Buffs last year handed John Hancock's Bears their only defeat in nine duals (17-11) and the defending Rocky Mountain champs would like nothing better than to square counts with their big sister. 10 Gridders In Handball Tournament THE HARD WAY . . .

Hodge and Kennedy both Bea trice men, own several firsts this season. Team Captain Paul Hughes, high scorer for the Husker team in Saturday's meet, is entered in the trampoline, horizontal bar, rings, parallel bars and side horse. His specialties are the high bar and p-bar. Tom Kidd, who tied with Kennedy Saturday for the team's second high scorer, will compete in the side horse, horl sontal bar, parallel bars and rings. Kidd's ankle was slightly injured In the Colo rado State meet last week, but he is expected to be in top con dition for the invitational. Also entered in the side horse event are Bob Yarwood and De way ne Behrens. Behrens re ceived a second place against Colorado State and has shown outstanding improvement this season. Charles Sprague, parallel bars, and Don Yoder, flying rings, are the other men listed on coach Gler's ten-man team. Both men have been valuable point-getters in gym meets this season. The next meet on the agenda for the Husker gymnast will be Hancock returns three indl vidual champs from his team winners, including his ace Don Govoni, a third place winner in the NCAA championships at Lehigh university. Govoni, now wrestling at 167 stands the best chance of any Rocky Mountain area wrestler of gaining a spot in the March nationals at Fort Collins and cur rently owns the best dual mark among the Bears. Buff Coach Ray Jenkins may be forced to insert three newcomers into his lineup against the Bears. Regular Will Lynch is still plagued with illness and may be replaced by Bill Lindsey. Arnie Torgerson could replace George Artemis at 123 and Bill Fischer sub for Bob Schalk at heavyweight. Big 7 Swim The foolball playen handball 2SSS ni6ht with ten boys relPowers Clash The ten semi-finalists are Leonard Singer, Bob Decker, Carl Brasee, Verl Scott, Kay Curtis, Ed Gaclnski, George Bauer, Dick GoU, Jim Ceder dahl and Cliff Ilopp. In last week's matches the top tilt was Curtis and Paynich. The game was tied five times with Curtis finally winning 21-15. Going into closing rounds the general concensus around the fleldhouse is that Leonard Singer la the top threat to walk off with the title. Curtis is considered the dark horse. Singer is a graduate of Omaha Technical high and is well known to Omaha handball fans. Leo nard haii been active in YMCA activities and competes in the Y handball tourneys. Curtis is from Laurel and previous to his attending the University had never played handball. He has developed rapidly in the last three years. If these two boys do meet in the finals, it should be quite a battle. The swimming powers of the Big Seven will settle their dual meet differences here Saturday afternoon as' Iowa State plays host to Oklahoma. Oklahoma is undefeated for the season, Iowa State has lost once (to powerful Michigan State) in four meets. One of the strongest Sooner teams in years represents Okla homa. Composed mostly of fresh men and sophomores, Coach Joe Glander s team has Indicated that it will take the measure of any team it faces. The Sooners : trounced Southern Methodist, the best in the Southwest, in their opening meet. Although such veterans as Clarke Mitchell and Bob Thatcher are still on hand, it is the young sters like Graham Johnston, Jsun Greene, Dave Glander and Doug Schechter who have given the Sooners their real power this year. One of the key spots in the meet will be the battles between con ference champion Russ Thomas and Johnston in the 220 and 440 . row before home folks Wyo ming (48-45), Colorado A&M (52V6-40H) and Nebraska (47 46) and could finish the sea son unbeaten at home by knocking off the Jayhawks. I Kansas owns a 49-44 earlier win over Colorado, that one com ing in a double dual meet at Lin coln two weeks ago when Balch left three regulars at home due to illness. , Returning those three to regu lar competition, Balch knocked off Nebraska, 47-46, here last week, evening a count with the Huskers who beat him, 55-37, at the same time the Jayhawks won. The Colorado coach figures an other close meet similar to the Vfhraska affair with not more than a "2-3 point spread lor tne winner," Balch figures most trouble forthcoming from Kansas' middle-distance man, Sam Per kins, who stands a good chance of winning points for the Jay hawks In the conference meet March 7-8 at Lincoln. Kansas also swept the first two places in the diving event at Lin coln and should Rain points there although footballer Lee venzice has Improved tremendously for the Coloradoans.

He re sponded by banking home the clinching goal In a hectic 56-54 victory over Iowa State and laylng-up another Important bucket in the 27-27 victory over Oklahoma A & M at Stillwater.

He hadn't played the spot m compe tition before but ne ciearen xnroe Answering the tipoff against Nebraska here last week, Keller bagged a field goal and two free throws. He repeated these fig ures against Oklahoma A&M. Point-making at this pace won't get a second glance but Jumpin John has fitted well into the Jayhawks' recently adopted switching man-for-man defense that has given up an average of 14.7 field goals and 49.2 points per game against Its last three, foes.
