(
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.
His outstanding performances in
the crucial moments were instru
mental in defeating Nebraska twice
and were. a great help towards

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 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. SAM last
week won 4-0 over Phi Gamma
