come the Cornhuskers back from
Kansas City and the Bushmen
showed their appreciation by drub
bing a tired Colorado quintet 74-52.
Nebraska lumped into a quick
10-4 lead shortly, after the opening
tipoff and from then on it was a
one sided contest.
Little Garv Reimers was all over
the court as he poured 16 points
through the hoop and held the
hitrhlv touted Dave Mowbray to
just three field goals.
The loss of center Jim Jocheros
and caDtain Bob Helzer was very
apparent in the Buffalo attack.
Don Walker and Leo Hayward,
who replaced Jochems at the pivot
post could only tally two tieitt goais
between them.
The Husker one-three-one de
fense worked like a charm. Colo
rado had to do most of its shooting
from the outside and with Mow-
brav tied in knots they did not
pose much of a threat.
Lvle Nannen. junior guard from
Svracuse. eot the starting nod over
Jim Kubacki. "Chink" looked very
good in his home debut. He was
all hustle on defense and aaoea
eight points "to the Cornhusker's
winning margin.
As usual. Rex Ekwall was his
brilliant self. He was a demon
off both backboards and led the
Nebraska scoring with 18 points as
he burned the nets with amazing
recrularitv. The Holmesville, Ne
braska senior is on his way to his
finest season and should breas
Jim Buchanan's scoring record
without too much trouble.
The Buffs, who have been on the
road the last couple of weeks,
showed signs of being road weary.
Sox" Waketh's crew leit tsouioer
several weeks ago and headed for
the west coast. After playing a
nair of erames with Washington,
they embarked for Kansas City
where they dropped the champion
ship contest to Kansas. The
Walsethmen then made a beeline
for Miami where they defeated the
Hurricanes and then jumped on a
plane and arrived in tne capitoi
city last Friday.
Jim Cadle, 6'4" senior from
Newton, Kansas led the Buffalo at
tack with 17 points while Leo Hay
ward chipped in 12 points, all of
which were free throws.
Ekwall and Reimers were high
men for the Cornhuskers with 18
and 16 points respectively while
Ron Parsons and Nannen helped
out with nine and eight points to
their credit.
Nebraska returns to action on
Saturday night when they journey
to Boulder for a rematch with the
Buffs.

chool that are now shopping for
! a football coach.
The most prominently mentioned
schools were those on the Pacific
Coast.
Tn soectel interview with Ath
letic Director Bill Orwig, the Ne
braska learned that the rumors
that Elliott was investigating other
job possibilities were true. "Ws
know that Pete had some feeler
and that he is investigating them,"
said Orwig" who was Elliott's back
field coach in the latter's playing
days at Michigan.
"I think that it would be foolish
for him not to investigate them in
the light that it is always a good
idea to look over other job oppor
tunities. On the other hand, we
hopo that we will realize that Ne
braska wants him to stay," re
plied the director.
Over the weekend, Elliott was
granted a pay increase of $2,500
living him a total salary of $14,500
per year. This grant came at the
monthly meeting of the Board of
Regents and was unanimously approved.
This pav raise came out of the
funds of the athletic department
and not out of the tax funds as
some people think. All salaries
and improvements in that depart
ment come out of the departmental
funds.
In an effort to find Elliott, the
Journal called his wife who would
not divulge hi whereabouts.
There are 10 major universities
looking for a head football men
tor. The Citadel, Harvard, Boston
University and Iowa State are con
sidered as remote possibilities
while Missouri, Houston, Califor
nia, Southern California, Washing
ton and Indiana. Elliott had been
offered the Missouri job while still
an assistant at Oklahoma.
It was also reported that Bill
Jennings, Nebraska backfieid
coach has been offered a similar
position at a Southwest Conference
school. The most likely place
would be Texas where a former
pupil of Jennings, Darrell Royal,
recently took over the head reins.
Orwig said that Jennings had
received a feeler but would not re
veal the instituuon. Said Orwig,
"Bill Jennings t- o has received a
feeler, but that Is his problem to
work out and I'm sure he'll come

The increase in pay meant that
Elliott is now receiving more than

Although the Big-Seven Basket
ball Tournament in Kansas City
was far from a success for the
Cornhusker hoop squad, they were
able to finish among the leaders
in practically every department.
For the tournament, the Huskers
finished in sixth place wit, a one
win and two loss record. The win
came at the expense of Missouri
70-65 while the two losses were
suffered at the hands of Michigan
State and Iowa State by the scores
of 79-65 and 89-69 respectively.
The big factor in the disappoint
ment of the Husker showing was
at the foul line.
Nebraska opponents scored 95 of
their 233 Doints at the foul line
while the Huskers could only man
age 60 of their 204 points via tne l
same route.
Considering that the team was
outscored by 35 points for the
three games on free throws and
only 29 total points, the Husker
weakness in the tournament can
be clearly shown.
There were many bright spots
on the Huskers record. They out-
scored their opponents in total
field goals 72-69. Their' 72 goals
was good for fourth place, only
six behind Kansas U. the leaders.
Their shooting percentage of 36.0
was also good for fourth as
Kansas again led with a 42.6
shooting average.
The 204 total points was only
good for a sixth but only two
teams outscored them by more
than eight points. Michigan State
was the overwhelming leader in
this deDartment with a total of
242 points. Iowa State finished sec
ond with 220.
In total rebounds the Huskers
finished fifth with 118, but this
total was only 11 behind t leader
Kansas. Nebraska opponents
cleared the boards for 120 against
them.
In individual statistics, Nebras
kans finished in the top ten n
both scoring and rebounding. Gary
Reimers finished eighth in total
points with 48. Bex Ekwall had t
total of 41 points which was good
for 14th place. In rebounds, Ek
wall tied for eighth with 25. Don
Smidt finished a close 11th with
23. Reimers had 19 field goals
which was good for fifth plact
in that department.

higher salary than the head foot

"I jon't think that this is neces

Elliott Gets
Salary Hike
Of $2500
Nebraska's head football coach
Pete Elliott and his entire staff
last week received raises in their
salaries for the 1957 season.
Elliott's salary was boosted from
$12,000 thousand to $14,500. The
raise places Elliott's salary as the
highest on the athletic staff at
the University. It is $1,200 higher
than that received by Athletic Di
rector Bill Orwig.
When Orwig first came to Ne
braska it was believed that his
salary should be higher than the
football coaches. Ite situation has
just changed in the past few days.
It is believed the' 30 year old
football mentor received the sub
stantial boost so that his salary
would favorably ' compare with
those of head coaches of other
major colleges in the Big Seven,
Big Ten, etc.
Elliott now has a three year con
tract at Nebraska. Last year in
his first season with the Huskers
his team finished with a four wm
six loss record.
Elliott came to Nebraska after
serving for several years as top
assistant at Oklahoma under Bud
Wilkinson. The Sooner head coach
counted high on Elliott and hat
ed to see him leave.
With Elliott and the assistants
here Nebraska students and fans
are hoping that the Huskers can
once again rise to the national
rankin? they held a few years
past.
The assistants Bill Jennings, Dee
Andros. Don Scarborough. Gene
Stauber, and Don Strasheim each
received a pay raise of $500 per
year.
