Fred Longacre, Dubbqrs Shine In Scooring Tables v
By FRANK SORENSON
Sports Staff Writer
Well, now that the hardwood
season is over for another year,
let's look back at some of the
highlights that took place on the
maples.
During the past year, 92 teams,
a near-record number, entered
the race with a grand total of
1,270 men playing. Games were
held on seven courts around the
University, three in the Coliseum,
three in the Physical Education
Building and one in the Ag Col
lege Activities Building. From
all this there were 640 unsched
uled games which saw 18 score
books filled after the smoke
cleared.
Fred Longacre, an All-Unfver-ftity
selection last year for Theta
Chi, topped the scoring: parade
with a total of 308 points over a
Bpan of 13 games for an average
of 23.6 points per game. Bill
Soetburg, the Theta Xi's top man
came in second with an 18.0 aver
age. The All-U champions, the Dub
bers, led the team scoring parade
with a 55.2 average in 14 games
for a total of 774 markers to
nose out Longacre's Theta Chi
team who amassed a total of 720
points in 13 contests for a 53.8
average.

Tigers Drill
Missouri Loses Top Prospect
As Spring Practice Begins
One of the brightest bulbs in
Missouri's 1954 football marquee
blinked out this week as some 100
gridmen reported for s p r i n g
drills.
Among: the missing- was Ray
Detring, the rangy sophomore
fullback who would have figured
in a switch to left halfback this
spring. The big speedster left
school last week, still eligible
scholastically, but tired of the
classroom routine.
As the mid-March workouts be
gan, Coach Don Faurot could
count 15 lettermen on hand, with
six other veterans excused from
the spring session.
Fullback Bob Bauman, and
halfbacks Jerry Schoonmaker
and Bob Musgrave, are with the
baseball squad, Linebacker Terry
Roberts and halfback Guy Rose
are recuperating from leg in
juries and center Norden Stef-
anides needs his spring afternoons'
free to pursue a laboratory proj
ect in the Veterinary School.
Aggrieved by Detring's loss,
Coach Faurot still looked ahead
cheerfully this week to the '54
campaign his 17th here as boss
of M. U. football.
"Except at tackle, we're deep
enough in veterans to field a good
team next fall, if we don't lose
any more key players," Faurot
said. "Of 11 seniors who finished
up, six were starters last year
and we must bring along their re
placements this spring."
Most acute problem, Faurot
thought, was in the backfield
where Bob Schoonmaker and
"Skimp" Morrifield both hard
hitting halfbacks must be re
placed. Also gone are such reg
ulars as John Willson, left end;
Julian Boyd and Charley Phil
lips, who shared starting time at
left tackle; Ted Follin, right
guard; and Loyd Brown, center.
At quarterback, the Tigers
shouldn't lack seasoned leader
ship. Here, veterans are stacked
three-deep with Vic Eaton, Tony
Cerv Raps Fifth
Homer For Yanks
Bob Cerv, former University
f Nebraska outfielder, smashed
his fifth home run of the Grape
fruit League Sunday with a blast
over the left-field wall in the
second inning to help the New
York. Yankees break a seven
game losing streak at the ex
pense of the Brooklyn Dodgers,
who were riding an 11-game
winning streak going into the
contest.
Scardino and Jack Brase the
1953 play-callers again available.
All will be seniors. Right now,
the 195-pound Eaton, is the No. 1
entry.
Fullback is staffed solidly, too,
with Bauman the club's top ball
carrier and blocker due back.
Behind the Bengals' all-conference
back, Is Harold Thomeciek,
who worked from the No. 3 full
back post last year and lettered
as a defensive halfback In 1952.
Competition for. both halfback
jobs should be brisk, although
the younger Schoonmaker, Mus
grave and Rose all will make
their presence felt next fall. In
the meantime, sophomores-to-be
Jim Hunter and Sonny Stringer,
and Tom Morrell a junior next
fall will get top billing in the
left halfback scrap.
At right half, Jack Fox the
senior left-hander who under
studied Merrifield can tighten
his grasp on the first-string job
this spring. Three other lefties
Musgrave, Gerye Burson and Bill
Curley appear to be the chief
challengers.

Saturday On All-Sports Day Card
ach Bill Glassford and his i . Kiipsi, winr. Barer, N.
Coach Bill Glassford and his
Nebraska football team started
their final week of spring drills
Monday which will be climaxed
by their second full-scale game
scrimmage Saturday as one of
the features of All-Sports Day.
Their first taste of action un
der regular game conditions
came last Saturday as the veteran-loaded
Reds blanked the
Whites 24-0. Nearly 600 fans
watched the action, which Glass
ford described as a "typical first
game scrimmage."
FUMBLES frequented'a score
less first quarter, but in the
second quarter Quarterback Rex
Fischer flipped a pass to End
Andy Loehr that covered 58
yards and a touchdown. That's
the way things ended in the
first half.
After both teams had early
third-quarter drives fizzle, Jon
McWilliams, sophomore half
back on the Red team, inter
cepted a White aerial, but after
being cornered near the side
lines, threw a lateral to Fischer
who raced 58 yards to score.
The Reds got the remaining
of their four touchdowns in the
final period with Fullback Bob
Smith and sophomore Quarter
back Charley Smith sharing the
spotlight. Smith, the veteran,
scored the third Red touch
down with a 10-yard run while
Smith, the rookie, tosed a 22
yard pas to End Don Schmid,
another sophomore, for the final
tally.
THE PASSING of sophomore
Quarterback Don Erway and
the running of another sopho
more, Don Comstock, stood out
for the Whites. Comstock, who
plays from the halfback posi
tion, reeled off one of the best
gains for losers, a 15-yard ad
vance. Among those missing from the
scrimage Saturday were Tackles
Pev Evans and Quinlan Ander
son and End Bill DeWulf who
were either injured or ill. Also
absent were Dennis Korinek and
Dirkes Rolston, both halfbacks,
who are fighting for berths with
the Nebraska baseball team.
