I P Wednesdoy, Morch 14. 1956 THE NEBRASKAN Page 3 Nebraskan Selects: C1 DVOB1 a nn 131 5)0 r r i r t J ( B) Big Seven basketball race having ended with Kansas State be ing crowned champions, the Ne braska sports staff has endeavored to choose an All Conference team. The players mentioned for All Star honors have been chosen for their performances in Big Sev en Conference games. The first squad consists of Rex Ekwall and Norm Stewart at the forwards, LeRoy Bacher at center aid Gary Thompson and fritz Schneider at the guards. Ekwall, six foot four inch Ne braska junior, was by far one of the outstanding players in the league. His great rebounding and shooting led the Huskers this sea son. Stewart, labeled the best basket ball player in Missoury history, was a unanimous choice for this mythical team. The Tiger senior carried a 20 plus scoring aver age throughout the season and was a first team choice on Col lier's All District team. The nod at center goes to LeRoy Bacher of Oklahoma. The Sooner junior was the one shining light In an otherwise dismal Oklahoma season. Bacher at six foot six inches tall is a great rebounder and his .artistry with the hook shot is unsurpassed. Perhaps one of the finest guards in Big Seven history is Gary Thompson. The Cyclone mighty mite, who stands five feet ten inches tall, holds the all time scor ing record at Iowa State. His 29 point outburst against the Huskers last Thursday enabled him to shat ter the old mark. Rounding out the first squad is perhaps the most underrated play er in the conference. Fritz Schneider, junior guard from Kan sas State, is a Lgh speed fake and drive expert who keeps de fenders busy from every angle. His great defensive play and all around hustle sparked the Wild eats to the conference champion ship and has earned him the most valuable player award from the Nebraska sports staff. One senior, two juniors and .two sophomores notched positions on the Nebraskan second five. At the forwards on this squad are Maur i King of Kansas and Jim Rang '.lot of Colorado. At the center posi ticu is Jack Parr of Kansas State and the guards are Lionel Smith of Missouri and John Crawford of Iowa State. The Nebraskan sports staff feels that two special awards are in order this season. ' We feel that Jerry Sandbulte is deserving of Hit title of outstanding reliefer in the Big Seven.

Use Nebraskan Want Ads V I yf - I ill ene Cotter Seleeted A hith Star Of The IV The Nebraska ai choice for Star of the Week is Gene Cotter. Cotter was picked for his outstanding per formance in the Big Seven swim meet at Boulder, Colorado last weekend. The Husker junior was the only winner on the Nebraska squad. He emerged as champion in the one meter diving after nosing out Dale Waffmuth, of lowm State, 439.9 to 433.8. Gene will be relied upon next sea son to lead the Huskers to perhaps the Big Seven title. Most of this year's squad will return next sea son and with the experience they have gathered, the Cornhuskers could be trouble for the champion Oklahoma squad. Captain Torn Houchen, Nebras ka's leading swimmer, has another year of eligibility remaining and can be counted on to team with Cotter to pace the Huskers. In the seasons opener against Grinnell College, Cotter won the one meter diving in a walkaway Against Kansas he again won very easily. He defeated Wally Snow, Sigma Chi Bowlers Top League Bob Wirs I-M Editor Sigma Nu won 3-1 last week and by doing so replaced Selleck as leaders in the Monday bowling league. The Selleck team won only one of four points and thus dropped from the unbeaten ranks. Sigma Phi Epsilon won four to tie the previous leaders. The Tuesday league also has a new leader this week. Sigma Chi replaces Delta Sigma Pi. Sigma Chi won four points while the Delta Sigs were winning three of four. The Wednesday evening bowlers are being paced by Sigma Alpha Mu who arelO-2, while Theta Xi and Sigma Phi Epsilon are currently tied for second at 9-3.
