Big News From Kreit ...
Max Kreitman, former sports editor of the Nebraskan, dropped by
the office to deliver a few choice words on the Kansas University basket
ball squad. Max was in Lawrence Friday evening and took in the an
nual Kansas Varsity-Freshman game. His description of the outstanding
play of Wilt The Stilt" Chamberlain was no news to us.
Kreitman seems to fell that the Kansas squad could take the Big
Seven championship even without Chamberlain. He also had plenty of
praise for the KU yearlings indicating that the final score did not reveal
the true picture. Putting himself out on a limb Max gave me permission
to quote him on the following statement. He said "From all indications,
I believe Kansas will win the Big Seven irown." With that enlightening
piece of news, Max bounced out the door.
Frosh Look Good . .
Anyone who took in the Kansas State-Nebraska Freshman contest
last Saturday afternoon might have thought that they were watching a
hockey game and that on every play tse referee was dropping he puck
in the center of the ice and letting the players fight over it.
It wasnt a contest of who could carry the ball furthest, but who
could fumble for the most yardage. On one series of plays the K-State
A few of Gene Stauber's ponies did emerge from the den of con
each one, only to fumble the pigskin right back to the Wildcats.
yearlings fumbled three times in a row and the Cornhuskers recovered
fusion looking as though they may be able to give their big brothers
of the Varsity squad some help next season. Outstanding were Ben
Cacioppo of Omaha and Bob Brandt of Denison, Iowa. Both halfbacks,
they led the "Little Red" squad to victory, while Pat Fitzgerald of
Boys Town, Dan Olsen of Grand Island and Bob Fleming of Sterling
were bulwarks on defense.

returning it some 30 yards to witli

Nebraska drew first blood in the
game ''arly in the second period.
At this time Brandt hit Brede
with the pass for the first six
points. Brede was filling in at
right end for Glen Hepburn of
Boys Town who sat out the game
with injuries.
Cacioppo's conversion a 1 1 e ra
was wide.
About five minutes later they
stretched the lead to 94) with the
field goal. Cacioppo kicked from
a very difficult angle but hit per
fectly. Again later in the period Ne
braska hit pay dirt on tht 16-yard
run. This finished the Busker scor
ing for the afternoon.
The Wildcats only score came
in the third period. George Whit
ney capped a 63-yard drive with a
two yard plunge. John French con
verted for the final point of the
afternoon.
The final period was played with
numerous fumbles by both sides.
The K-State lads were handed the
ball several times inside the Ne
braska 10-yard line but couldnt
capitalize and usually handed it
back on the next play.
Coach Stauber used 35 frosh in
the game. All looked very well and
appeared to be good prospects for
next year's varsity.
Quarterbacks Harry Tolly and
Joe Miller excelled in their direc
tion of the first and second
Fullback Jim Hergenrater also
looked very fine for the yearlings.
One member of the Kansas State
squad, Jim Goodmiller, was from
Norman, Oklahoma.
Gerald Giffin and Jim Mechlins
of the Wildcats received mild
brain concussions in the contest.
