Toomey of Colorado, Darwin
Ashbaugh and Paul Williams
of Kansas, Bob Knaub of Ne

If Shelby is unable to com
pete, Toomey appears to be
the man to beat. Toomev

Scarlet Tennis Team Goes To
Norman For Big Eight Meet
By Keith Eland
Ed Higgenbotham, Univer
sity of Nebraska tennis coach,
will be sending his charges
to their final match of the
year at Norman, Okla., this
week-end at the Big-8 Cham-
pionsmps.
Higgenbotham came to the
University from Beatrice,
wheeree hee was a high
school coach, and became the
swimming coach during the
1945-46 school year. He took
on the duties of intramural
chairman until 1950, when he
received his present position
of tennis coach.
Last Year
Last year Nebraska's im
proved net squad moved into
a fifth place tie with Kansas
in the Big-8. The Huskers
picked up three wins, all in
the singles competition for
their points. Bill North and
George Fisk of Nebraska won
more sets than any other of
the four teams that met the
eventual champions, Okla
homa State.
Nebraska will be carrying
a season's record of eight
wins in 14 matches. Oklahoma
State will again be the big
threat according to Higgen
botham, and Oklahoma may
well be the second biggest
competitor. Although Nebras
ka was beaten by Oklahoma
State, 7-0, it was played on
an indoor court early in the
season when Nebraska had
little or no practice.
Colorado may be a surprise
threat due to the limited com
petition they have had this
year because of weather con
ditions. Higgenbotham does
not know what to really ex
pect from this club.
Comparasions
Wichita beat Colorado 5-2
and won over Nebraska .by
5- 2 also. Kansas lost to Ne
braska 4-3 and Kansas State
was overtaken by Nebraska
6- 1. Nebraska earlier in the
season had come out on the
short end against Kansas, 2-5,
Oklahoma State 0-7, Iowa
State 2-5 and Oklahoma 1-6.
Albert Arrigunaga leads
the Nebraska team in scoring
with 18 points. Bruce Russell
follows closely behind with 16
Bill North has 13 points and
Bill Kendall and Charlie Kress
both have 10 points. Dave
Calhoun has rounded up four
team points and Jack Kraft
