"Everyone tries to hit you when

Jack Gardner, target of many
attacks since his tenure as Kan
sas State head basketball coach
started, has definite Ideas on
how to mold winning basket
ball teams as well as men.
Gardner is also in favor of abol
ishing the detrimental and in
herent weaknesses in basketball
dom today, but opposes several
of the recent actions taken by the
Big seven conference.
1. He Is definitely in favor
of trying out basketball players.
2. He feels that contacting

that since the conference has au
thorized athletic scholarships, the
ruling which bans tryouts is not
fair. "Coaches can't shoot in the
dark" at high school prospects and
and "I certainly have too much to
do than to watch Podunk high
school play." The former rule is
"Hypocritical."
On the second opinion Gard
ner felt "this ruling is simply
driving the situation under
ground Instead of bringing it
out into the open. Instead of
coaches contacting prospects, the
alumni will soon be secretly do
ing the same thing."

Intramural Starts Columnist
Intramural basketball is slowly
running out of undefeated teams.
The list dwindled to three Thurs
day night, the second night of
playoff competition, with two
more of the "all-powerful' falling
by the wayside.
Farm House "A" and the
Rockets hung np their basket
ball shoes for the season after
stunning upsets knocked them
out of the race.
The Aggie loss eliminates the
last fraternty "A" team from the
select group which insures that
this year's "A" champion will
have suffered at least one defeat
Sigma Chi "A" was the villain in
this case.
A big fourth quarter surge led
by Chuck Curtiss and Ted Con
nor provided the Sirs with a 36
28 win after trailing the Aggies,
2t-25 entering the final stanza.
Until that big fourth, the lead
had changed back and fourth
with the Farm Housers looking
the classiest of the two teams.
The Aggies jumped to a 6-0 lead
and then saw the Sigs roar back
to take a 9-8 first quarter lead.
Farm House slipped in an extra
counter in the second chucker and
the score was knotted 15-15 at
intermission time.
The third period was all Farm
House- as Dave Jones led the
way with six pointers.
Jn the fatal fourth, the Aggies
just ran out of gas while the
steady Sig attack asserted itself
and the game was won.
Curtiss with 14 and Connor
with ten were the scoring
leaders for the victors. Jones
took top honors for the losers
with ten.
The Rockets suffered from bad
luck. Two of the top point-getters
and floor men for the rocketing
Independents failed to make the
contest and the Bearcats, twice
beaten by the Rockets, jumped
at the chance and captured a 26-
21 victory.
Phil Haas, sixth highest scorer,
in the University, and Leonard
Wilson, second Rocket Scorer, both
were in absence from the contest
and the Bearcats are not a team to
be taken lightly.
The teams kept on even foot
ing throughout the first half and
at rest-time the score was knot
ted at 12-12. Ray Svehla and
Paul Dunlap began hitting for
the Cats after that and It was
too much for the remaining
Rockets.
Svehla led the Cat attack with
seven points, followed by Verl
Claussen, Dunlap and Wayne
Faber with five apiece. Three men
took care of the rocket scoring.
Rog Beats tallied ten while Bob
Thiesen notched six and Harold
Andrew counted five.
, It is Interesting to note that
the Rockets could have failed to
show up for four of their regular
season contests and still finished
on top of the league XH. This
one time really hurts.
The only members of the un
beaten group now are Newman
Club, M-Street Boys and Farm
House "a".
Brown Palace came up with a
surprizingly good game against
Sigma Alpha Epsilon. The Pal-
doped to lose by at least 35
points, gav the Sig Alpha and the
spectators an exhibition of shoot-
in that ranks with the best in
the SAE's were their superior
height and at least five times as
many shots at the basket.
The Palacers even owned a
first period margin over the
heavily-favored Sig Alpha, li
ft. Sig A!ph center Don Mc
Arthur took scoring honors for
the evening with 23 tallies fol
lowed by Palacer Darrel Mont
gomery with 18. Gas Lebsock
added ten to the winning total
and Bill Moatea helped the los
ing eauco with another seven.
Beta Theta Pi came up with a
mild surprise and with the help
of a third-quarter surge, dropped
Pioneer house, 34-22. Only two
Pioneer points by Wes Beery were,
at the top," and "Nebraska has
probably lost many athletes to
other schools and the subject it
a rather tender one."
We did not try to 'pour it on
Colorado. I swept the entire bench.
Knostm&n played only half of the
game. I teach the boys to play
hard no matter "what the score is
and most of the reserve boys were
trying to look good," Gardner said.
The Idea that Sohaetsle and
Bell were given tryouts was
discarded as "ridiculous." The
boys were being shown around
by former Omahan, Dewey
Wade. They played basketball
and I saw them and talked to
them for only three or four min
utes." "If they think I could scout the
boys and tell their abilities in that
length of time, l,m a better basket'
ball coach than thy think I am."
This sports scribe's face was
n't red from sunburn! We had
been pressing charges of Gard
ner's illegal antics in the Neb
raskan the past several weeks.
We Just had to turn the other
cheek when it was revealed the
Nebraska was also reprimanded
for their recruiting procedures.
Gardner talked little about his
team's chances for next year. He
was "still worried about the ter
njble closing schedule the Wild
cat's face."
"Knostman is only a junior, but
we'll be losing four seniors." But
don't cry for Coach Gardner. He'll
be on top a long time and as long
as he's there, guys will be taking
pot-shots at him.

Beta romp as the winners tallied
11 and that was the whole story.
Newman Club easily kept
their record unblemished by
stopping the Dorm A 8 tar cold
and rolling to a 27-12 victory
Only four points were chalked
np for the Stars in the two mid
dle periods.
Bill Griffin and Duane Deiter-
mg topped the Catholic attack
with seven and six points, res
pectively while Keith Kohrs and
Keith Schwartz each tallied four
for the Stars.
The Pill rollers used a Third
period rally to overcome a Luth
eran lead and went on to down
the Lutheran Student Association
by a 30-25 tally. With big Bill
Luther potting ten points, the
Lutherans were easily the class
of the teams in the first half, but
the Pills stopped Luther with only
two more after that and that told
the story.
Luther's 12 points took top
scoring honors followed by Dick
Doe ring of the Pharmacists with
11. Jack Donnelson added an
other eight to the winning total.
Shortys outscored the Navy
ROTC, 21-12 in the second half

Shortys twice previously in reg

of how the team will turn out
Out of the seven meets that
were lost, there is a possibility of
465 points that can be scored. The
Huskers dropped five of those
seven meets by a total of only 14
points.
Several of the dual meets
could probably have been won
if Coach Lepley would have
doubled back his experienced
men. But on trips, Lepley felt
it was more important to give
all his younger hopefuls a
chance to compete, and thus felt
that winning was irrelevant.
From all pre-meet data, the
Iowa State swimming team will
probably be the heavy favorite
to regan the conference title. The
only threat the Cyclone tankmen
must fight off will be the Okla
homa Sooner bid.
Buele Balderston Is currently
Nebraska's high point getter.
The flashy backstroke and in
dividual medley ace has scored
a total of 89 points during the
season.
Dick Hlidek, former Omaha
Central swimmer, has a total of
75 points for second place honors.
Cal Bentz has 69 for third place.
Both are freshman.
Coach Lepley Is more than
slightly concerned about the
recent epidemic of sickness that
has taken his squad. Bents, dis
