Tuesday, March 30, 1954 THE NEBRASKAN Pag 3 "4- '4 A Select Donis A .mm. SBSBI Brandon, Bachman, Longacre Also Named To Team By FRANK SORENSON Sports BUR Writer C A !. . A All C T Bill Giles and Bill Soelberg as Individuals and Alpha Tau Omega as a team led the 1954 Fraternity A Ail-Star team. While the Taus did not gain a position on the first five, they placed three on the second lineup and two on the third in the redhot voting vhich saw IS teams placing one or more men on the lineups. Of the 53 men balloted by the teams themselves, the votes were concentrated around the top tight with 29 hopefuls emerging with honors. Bill Giles of Phi Delta Theta missed by only three bal lots of being unanimous choice with Bill Soelberr of Theta Xi only one point behind. It was a great season for Giles who ended up in a tie for third place with Bob Bachman of Phi Kappa Psi in Fraternity A scor ing. However, the Theta Xi hook shot artist, Soelberg, ended up second in All-U scoring with an 18.0 average. Joining Soelberg at the other forward position is Dave Bran don of the champion Sigma Phi "Epsilon team. He led the fra ternity kings through one of their best seasons in years with his stellar, board play and effective jump shots. Last year Dave was a second team selection and moved into the coveted five this year due to the respect of his opponents. FRED LONGACRE of, Theta Chi enjoyed the best season of his college career going through 18 games at a 23.6 clip to rate as one of the greatest players of the Fraternity loup. He eclipsed 30 points on three occa sions and hit over the twenty mark in seven other games. An All-University selection last year, Fred's play gives indication that he would have been a top scorer on any of the teams in I-M play In the past few years.

Re was their top scorer for the last two years. Bachman and Giles, teamed up at the guard spots, would give the mythical five one of the most feared back court teams in the circuit. These champions have a total scoring average of 84.6 points per game, a pleasing performance to ahy coach. BEADING THE Tau-dominated second team are a pair of last year's first five, Al Blessing and Dave Jones. Blessing, who made the All-U team in 1952 and again in 1953 looked like a sure bet to become the first person in Intra mural history to mak the team three times. However, with the addition of tall Bob Brown to the Tau team, Altmoved from his pivot position to a forward slot for the good of the team and fed his taller team mate to get this writer's vote as the top team maafor the year. Brown, previously mentioned, was the tallest man on the honor list and can use his height to good advantage. Jones is most effec tive on his long one handers and drive-ins. Corky Engle of the Sig Eps Joins Jones at the other guard slot to give the second team the two longest-shooting guards In the university. Sam Bell of Sigma Chi, their top scorer, Joins Bless ing at the forward slot to give the second five the tallest team of the four with a 6-6Vi average. Heading the third string are Pat Mallette and Jim Walsh and the Phi Delt's Joe Carter. Mal lette played only part of the sea son due to a bad ankle and Walsh did not enroll until the second se mester. However, during their abbreviated seasons, both gained enough respect from their oppo nents to be voted in. Larry Dunning' from Sigma Chi and Duane Rankin of Phi Kappa Psi round out the third team. Dunning was a consistent threat for the hot-and-cold Sigs while Rankin was the second high scorer for the Phi Psis. On Friday the All-University team will be announced. From all indications, it will be one of the most-potent since the inaugural of the selections. if w " , j- - 4 - v 1 i - V f V ? x I " V ' ' -, , -Sa ' . t .. - ' :::: M: :'': 'x. :l--- ''.'x:-: :,, . v , Mighty Close, But Safe Coorty Sundny Journal ui4 Sur Norm Coufal, promising infield- two of Tony Sharpens Husker successfully.

The ace Jayhawker was far off his usual form as he stepped the first quarter in an excellent :59 only to fade to successive quar ters of :67, :62, and :63.8. His time was far short of the Bankers Mile record of 4:06.4 set by Gil Dodds in 1944. Earlier this season Santee had posted a 4:04.9 mile on an 8-lap dirt track at Michigan State.

The sun shined brightly and the temperature was mild as six University of Nebraska athletic teams strutted their stuff during Saturday's All-Sports Day be fore a multitude of Husker fans from throughout the state. As expected, the main attrac tion was the intersquad tussle between Coach Bill Glassford's v5tM '2SR H?" i Courtesy Sunday Journal and btw It's Too Late Jon McWilliams, the fleet- ing a White punt.
