The Great Stone Wall of the In
tramural basketball arena was
erected In only one day as five
cage behemoths, averaging 6 foot
3 inches in height and totalling
nearly a half a ton in weight, were
named to the All-University All
Star Basketball first team.
Spanning 6 foot three inch Joe
Houfek, Canfleld sharpshooter; 6
foot 5 Bob Brown, ATO siege gun;
6 foot 4 inch Bill Soelberg, Theta
Xi pivot mainstay; the forward
wall is not only well nigh unstop
pah but almost unsurmountable.
con ?ting the rock-ribbed honor
array are Bill Giles and Ed Dugan,
who normally play center or for
ward, in the back court.
The 'All-University aggregation
was chosen by the IM managers
and their teams. In the final bal
loting Giles, Brown and Soelberg
amassed the top number of votes
with Houfek, Dugan, Al Blessing
and Fred Longacre not far in ar
rears. One of the finest all-star quin
tets in recent years, the mythical
five presents everything a coach
could want in a basketball team:
offense, defense, rebounding and
floor performance. Wrapped up in
this star-studded cage combina
tion is scoring potential from every
corner of the court hookshot
and tip-in artists deluxe hovering
about the basket and fine long shot
snipers in Giles and Dugan pa

Rebounding is a matter-of-fact
Baseball Team
Moves South
For 8 Games
Coach Tony Sharpe's Husker
baseball squad will leave on an
eight-game trip Thursday at 4 p.m.
First stop for the Nebraska team
will be in Tulsa for a two game
series .with the Oklahomans. The
group will then travel on to Hous
ton University, Texas University
and Rice University for a two
game series with each school.
Sharpe said the main reason for
the trip was "to get down where
it's warm and practice." The Hus
kers have been spending most of
their practice sessions inside and
have only seen the light of day
five times in their practice to date.
Seven pitchers will make the
trip with the first starting nod
being given to Wille Greenlaw or
Jim Cederdahl, but Sharpe ex
pects to use all the hurlers in
the Tulsa University series.

fense. Ball-handling Is no problem
to such an experienced honor
bracket as this one.
Brown, scoring freely from the
post and forward slots, led the
Taus to their second All-University
title in three years. He scored 25
points in the championship game
with Canfleld. Houfek, a fine set
shot and driver, paced a three
pronged Canfield A attack of Hou-fek-Torczon-Torczon.
Giles, playing with the well-oiled
Phi Delt machine, was outstanding
with his floor play, rebounding and
clutch performances. Dugan, usu
ally roving in the back court, played

Al Blessing, selected twice on the
All-University first team and on
the second outfit in the past four
years, played his last season of IM
basketball. Always a steadying unit

in the ATO lineup, Blessing just
missed a first team birth. A mem
ber of the varsity basketball team
for two years, Blessing competed
his senior year and the three
years he was enrolled in Law
School.
Also pushing strongly for first
string accolades were Fred Long
acre, Theta Chi sizzler, and La
Verne Torczon, rugged middleman
in the Canfield scoring trio. Always
a strong candidate for the All-University
ratings, Longacre, playing
with a mediocre team, dropped
slightly in the final polling. Brack

Chuck Jensen, Hitchcock field gen
eral, and Lyle Martin, flashy Beta
backliner.
