Varsity Faces Best Freshman
Team Yet In Annual Contest
'Capibl Splendid. Bully
Nebraska's varsity basket
ball team goes against one
of the top freshman teams in
Cornhusker history Thursday
night at 7:30 p.m. at the Col
iseum. There will be no admission,
charge.
Varsity Starters
Starting for the varsity will
be Bob Harry (6-6) at cen
ter, Jim Kowalke (6-3) and
Al Maxey (6-3) forwards;
Wayne Hester (6-2) and Her
schell Turner (6-2) guards.
The freshmen likely will
start Al Buuck (6-8) or Ray
Solee (6-9) at center; Jan
Wall (6-6) and Phil Barth
(6-2) forwards; Rex Swett
(6-0) and Al Roots (6-3)
guards.
There will be two different
styles of play. The varsity,
without an extremely tall
man, will employ an open
post type of offense setting
up with three out and two in.
This requires a lot of motion
i ' -' ' ' '
i - - I' '
I -
if i iwmtl
Jerry Bush
and ball handling.
Fast Break
The freshmen, with the big
men, will use the single post.
This is basically a 2-1-2 of
fense. Both teams will use the
fast break and man-for-man
defense, Coach Jerry Bush
said.
Bush is extremely pleased
with the progress of his var
sity and Coach Tony Sharpe
tabs his group as the best
he has seen in his 13 seasons
at Nebraska.
The 1958-59 season marks
the fifth year for Coach
Bush, sometimes called the
"Coliseum Bear."
Bush Successful
In his first year (1954-55),
Bush guided the Huskers to
a surprising third-place finish
in the Big Seven, despite the
loss of several top perform
ers. Since then the Huskers
have finished in sixth place
(1955-56) and in a tie for
fourth place in 1956-57. They
were 11-12 for the season.
Last year Nebraska pulled
two of the biggest upsets in
the nation when they beat
both Kansas and Kansas
State.
Weather Forces Nebraska
Practice Session Indoors
A spirited and needless to
say happy Cornhusker foot
ball team went through light
workouts Monday in the field
house in preparation of the
advancing weekend tilt with
the Oklahoma Sooners.
"We would like to see some
rough contact this week; de
pending upon the weather of
course," commented coach
Jennings.
Praises
Jennings, who appaeared
calm and relaxed, had much
to say about his charges.
Those pointed out were Al
Wellman, who went in the
game when Zentic was in
jured, Duane Mongerson, and
Dick Rosier. "I admire the
way these boys went in and
really did everything they
could to help us win."
When the name Dick Mon
roe was mentioned, Jennings
had this to say: "He (Mon-
IfA
Scout Dick Monroe
roe) did a real fine job of
scouting Pitt, as he has done
all year."
"I think Tolly played a fine
game Saturday. He called a
good game, his quick kick
was instramental, and re
member, he played a lot of
defense," added Jennings.
Statistics
Statistically the Big Red
has a better showing than a
week ago.
Clay White has the best
rushing average with 113 yds.
in 29 carries for a 4.6 aver
age. Larry Naviaux has the
best passing average. He has
thrown 9 times and completed
7 for a .778 average. Two of
his completions were for
touchdowns.
Nebraska has six fine
punters with Pat Fischer hav
ing the best average but only
kicking one. The biggest share
of the punting has been done
by quarterbacks Tolly and
Harshman.
In the scoring column
Harshman and Fischer have
14 and 12 points respectively.
Nebraska Football Statistics (9 Games)
Feminine Touch Added1
To Oklahoma Sooners
Football is a 22-man game
nowadays and Oklahoma's
two units bearing widely-contrasting
girls' names, the
"Abigails" and the "Belle
Starrs," are playing with
equal dash and ire.
Quarterbacked by balding
Bobby Boyd and hubbed in
the line by stout Steve Jen
nings, senior left tackle, the
"Belle Starrs," named for the
notorious female outlaw who
used to roam eastern Okla
homa, look very much like
Oklahoma's best alternate
eleven of the Wilkinson regime.
Boyd pegged to Dick Car
penter for the winning touch
down over Oregon's Rose
Bowlers. Boyd lateraled to
Dick Carpenter for the first
touchdown over Texas and
guard Jim Davis, operating
in true Belle Starr tradition,
purloined the pig from Texas
fullback Mike Dowdle to flee
34 yards for the second.
The "Abigails" got their
name in an odd way. When

That game Saturday pro
duced so many surprises that
even the weathering .' got
jolted into the realization that
it was about time to snow.
The intramural duck hunting
teams bolted out of the sack
early Monday morning and
scurried to their frigid, rain-
soaked blinds to fire at the
hapless, southbound fowls. I
hate snow, and I think only
the stupidest people on camp

Went over to check on the
basketball results. In the first
three evenings of competition,
30 games were played. It is
rather difficult to cover all
these games personally.
Hence, if any house wants a
little more coverage on their
BB games, they will have to
bring us the details. All in
formation will be carefully
considered.
In running through those 30
the pants and Harrison in
turn ivarns the Oklahoma
guards that a wedge block is
needed by calling out some
girl's name.
One day in practice the sit
uation arose and Harrison,
stumped for a girl's name,
blurted out "Abigail," an old
fashioned girl's name that is
seldom used nowadays. The
Sooners began laughing so

Just around the corner, so now is the time to brush

Across from Cornhusker Hotel
games in the scorebook, a
few interesting items of sta
tistics met my eye.
The biggest single item was
Sigma Nu's 105 points scored
in one game against the Kap
pa Sig's. The defending frat
champs and current football
titleists scored 21 or more
points in each quarter. They
had four players with over 20
counters. The closest any oth
er team came to matching the
astronomical totoal was 56
scored by Gus I in a game
against Benton.
ft-
I officiated a couple of
games myself, and I found
that play was pretty clean.
There were a few games that
got a little rough though. The
Delt "B" team beat the Sig
Nu seconds, and the contest
produced 23 personal fouls.
The Beta A team is cur
rently leading the foul parade
with a total of 13 misdemean
ors in a single game. All in
all teams find that it is profit
able to refrain from fouling,
because free throw shooting
takes up a lot of time. The
clock doesn't stop during
fouls, time outs, or jump balls
in xjvl games.
it
Dropped over to Grant Me
morial to check on the IM
setup over their. I would ven
ture to say that most people
on campus do not know how
extensive the gals intramural
program is. They have 16 in
terorganizational sports.
Did you know that the Kap
pa's have won swimming for
the past five years? Tri Delt
Pat Arbuthnot won the arch
ery title for four straight
years.
The "Belle Starrs" actual
ly led the "Abigails" in touch
downs scored this season, 10
7, until the Colorado game
when the starting unit be
stirred itself and counted
three.
The Sooners call their third
outfit the "Tigers," their
fourth unit the "Twilighters,"
and the fifth unit the "Hoot
Owls," because it's almost
dark before they see any ac
tion in the games. The Ti
gers have scored four touch
downs and yielded one this
year.
