Iowa State coach Bill Stranni
gan has indicated that changes will
be maae for the Cornhusker tilt In
order to bolster the team offense.
There is a possibility that there
may be some personnel changes
but it is more likely that the of
fense will be revamped to sret
more scoring power out of the
forwards and centers. Of this
group only the veteran John Craw
ford has kept his 1956 Dace, rack
ing up 261 points to rate second
to Gary Thompson's 397. Thomp
son, by the way, needs only 14
points to become the greatest of
iowas major college scorers.
Thompson has 1175 points and is
aiming at the 1188 career total set
by Bill Logan of Iowa.
Forward Chuck Vogt and center
Don Medsker have each scored
143 points so far this season. Last
year Vogt had 213 and Medsker
232 at this time.
Thompson's running mate at
guard Lyle Frahm is the number
three Cyclone scorer for this sea
son with 206 markers. Last season
Frahm had only 74 aH season.
Also expected to see service for
Stranniean's crew are 67" reserve
center John Krocheski and for
ward Gary Davis.
Bush will Drbablv eo with his
starting five much of the way.
Gary Reimers and Rex Ekwall
continue to lead the Huskers in
scoring. The 5'10" Millard junior,
has 229 points for a 13.4 average
in 17 games. Ekwall is close be
hind with 210 markers. Ekwall
needs only 39 more points In the six
remaining games to become Ne
braska's all time scoring leader
He has racked up a total of 783
points in three years as compared
to Jim Buchanan's record of 821.
Ekwall'a running mate at forward
Don Smidt has 174 points and cen
ter Ron Parsons has 154.
The much improved Lyle Nan-
nen will again be the other Husker
starting guard ' post. Nannen had
one of his better earnes Mondav
night against Missouri when he
racked up 10 points.
The Huskers return home Mon
day night to entertain Kansas

outstanding of these teams is the
A-Chemists of Independent League
14 who seem to be by far the
best team in their league. These
cagers, who were All-University
champs last year, seem to be one
of the top contenders for the same
laurals this yearvalso.
The tight race of all the Leagues
seems to be the 4A Fraternity
League where the top four teams
still have a chance to come out
on top of the heap.
These four tems are Delta Tau
Delta and Delta Upsilon who are
presently tied for the lead posi
tion, Phi Gamma Delta who is
holding third place and the Alpha

Jim Denton . . , Oklahoma hurdle ace expected to give Keith
Gardner a run for his money in the low hurdles.
Records Should Fall:
Thinckds Gamble Record
Coach Frank Sevigne's cinder
crew will play host to the Okla
homa thinclads this Saturday as
the Sooners will be trying to ac
complish what no other Big Seven
Indoor track team has been able
to do thus far this season. That
feat is to blemish the record of
the Husker thinclads who have as
yet to be defeated.
The Oklahoma crew will be re
turning to Lincoln with Jim Denton,
Bill Prichett, Phil Frazier, Gary
Parr, Dick Dudley, and George
Church who are all returning vet
erans who scored points in last
year's meet.
Jim Denton and Bill Prichett,
who helped the Oklahoma mile re
lay team to set a new record
last year, are the only two record
holders returning from either team.
On the Husker side of the pic
ture, we find many of the thin
clads capable of setting new re
cords. Among these are Bob El
wood, miler; Keith Gardener,
hurdler and sprinter, who will have
a race on his hands when he meets
Phil Frazier in the high hurdles.
Both men have sped the 60-yard
distance under :07.5 which is the
present record. Larry Gausman is
another Husker capable of rewrit
ing the record book in the high
jump. Last week Larry jumped
6-3 to tie his old record but he
will have to do better than 6-5
to better the record this week.
Other strong contenders for
posting blue ribbons for the Husker
squad are Don Ficke, 440 yard
run; Lee Carter, two mile; Ken
Pollard, pole vault.
Nebraska's shot put hopes were
bolstered when Clarence Cook, Ne
braska football end, reported for
duty this week. Cook, pushing the
weight for the first time this week
was heaving the ball 45 feet.

Wrestlers Hit Road:
Matmen, Swimmers, Gymnasts
Face Top Foes On Weekend
By STAN tVTOMAN
Staff Sports Writer
This weekend will again be a
busy one for the wrestlers, swim
mers and the gymnasts. Coach Don
Strasheim will send his grapplers
against Iowa State Teachers at
Cedar Falls Friday.
The boys will be trying for their
second win of the season, the first
coming at the expense of South
Dakota State here in Lincoln last
week. Strasheim's hopes will be
in the hands of Don Brand, heavy
weight who has shown much im
provement in his last two matches,
Ken McKee 130 pounds, who pinned
his man last week and drew against
Minnesota, and Gil Neilson 123
pounds, who has scored consistently
all year.
Others making the trip will be
Jack Bryans, 177 pounds, John An
derson 167 pounds, Norm Cooper,
157 pounds, and Gail Baum, 137
pounds.
On Saturday, the Husker tank
men will meet Minnesota in the
Coliseum pool. Coach Hollie Lepley
will base his hopes on the im
proved swimming of Carl Boden
steiner Bill North, Fritz Helms
dorpher, Jerry Farrell and the
last season form diving of Gene
Cotter, winner of the last five
meets.
Coach Neil Thorpe of Minnesota
will rely mainly on returning let
ter winners Gerald Fladeland,
breaststroke, Richard Hansel, div
er and Captain LaRue Johnson,
backstroke.
The Husker gymnasts will mee
Kansas State on Saturday here in
Lincoln. This is the second meet
ing between the two schools this
year. The Cornhuskers won the first
meet easily, 93 to 43.
The Huskers will be trying for
their fourth win in five meets, their
only loss coming last week to Iowa.
Husker Frosh To Race;
Mullins Lauded In 660
Joe Mullins, Mike Fleming, Ken
Ash, Bill Melody and Rick Mc
V'ickers will run a Special 660
yards race as an added attraction
to the Oklahoma-Nebraska track
meet. "
Six weeks ago in a workout,
Mullins sped the distance in 1:23.
With six weeks more work under
their bell, Sevigne feels the boys
will be much sharper.
