Wichita Blasts Cagers By Dave Wohlfarth Nebraska's cagers scored only 19 points in the second half after trailing 34-30 at the half to lose at Wichita 79-49 last night. The Wichita Wheatshockers won their third game of the young season as they put on a strong second half rush to halt the Huskers before 6,000 rans at Wichita's Round house. The Huskers, paced by Tom Russell's 11 points and Rex Swett's 10 counters stayed close in the first half, but folded in the second stanza in their opening game of the 1961-62 season. Russell wound up as high scorer for the Huskers with 14 points and Swett had 12 as Coach Jerry Bush's young squad performed before new NU athletic director Tippy Dye. Guards Sharp Wichita was paced by the terrific shooting of its two nifty guards, Lanny Van Eman 'and Ernie Moore who accounted for 44 of the Shock ers' 79 points. Van Eman had an unbe lievable night, hitting on 11 for 11 held goal attempts and two for two from the free throw line for an amazing 1.000 shooting percentage, col lecting 24 points. Moore, 5-10 sparkplug, added 20 for the Wichita cause. The two small gua rd s (Van Eman is 6-1) led the way in Wichita's second half burst, as Van Eman hit four buckets and Moore added 11 points in the Shocker splurge in the early moments of the second half. Tall Forward Wall The Shockers put a full court press on the shorter Huskers part of the game as the Wichita forward wall of 6-10 Gene Wiley, 6-6 Wayne Dunham and 6-8 Sam Smith, along with sub Jerry Kittiko (6-5) controlled the boards. The Huskers, after trailing 44-33 with 13:15 left In the game, closed the gap to 49-42 on baskets by Russell and Jim Yates, a Daryl Petsch free throw and a layup and a long swisher by soph Chuck Sladovnik. But two field goals by" Van Eman and one each by Moore and Dunham stretched the Wichita lead to 60-44 with a little over nine minutes left NU Shut Out at End A free throw by Russell and two quick outside two pointers by 5-6 Husker soph Dennie Puelz finished the Hus ker scoring as Nebraska failed to score in the final eight minutes of the game, j Husker Coach Jerry Bush cleared his bench in the final minutes trying to give his seven sophomores on the tra veling squad a chance to gain some game experience. Sladovnik, Petsch and Puelz were the only Scarlet sophs to break the scoring ice as Sladovnik hit eight, Petsch had five and Puelz four. Nebraska was behind 29-21 with 6:17 left in the first half but narrowed the score to two points at 32-30 on two buckets by Swett, one by Russell and three free throws by the 6-7, Husker senior center before Van Eman's seventh field goal of the night gave the Shock ers a 34-30 intermission edge. Nebraska, which has now lost three games to Wichita while winning none, returns home to face Southern Metho dist in the home opener for the Huskers Thursday in the Coliseum. KEBKAMKA IAILY U EBRAS.IAU mm Sport Shots Wohlfarth By Bullet Never a. dull moment! That's the story on the athletic scene at Nebraska. The announcement that Bill Jennings' contract will not be renewed, the appointment of a new athletic director, Tippy Dye, and the carload of fast flying rumors about the next Husker grid coach all added up to make last week a busy one. Topping off the busy week was the Optimist's banquet at the Cornhusker Hotel Sunday night, honoring the 1961 football team. Bill Thornton and Don Purcell received trophies for being selected as the outstanding Husker back and lineman for the season. Bill Jennings introduced his team and staff and wished them luck in the future. The task was a hard one for the 42-year-old ex-Husker mentor as it climaxed five years of hard work without any winning' results. Jennings spent many a frustrated afternoon in his five year tenure, in which Nebraska failed to have a winning season or fin ish higher than sixth in the conference. The end was in evitable. It came as a surprise to no one but it does make one stop and think. Jennings' number one achievement while at Nebras ka was the respect he earned from the fans, the press, opposing coacnes ana most of ail, uie play ers. Coaching is a tough racket every one has the answer and nine times out of ten everything the coach does is wrong in someone's opinion. It's easy to blame the coach for everything tljat goes wrong. Yet, through it all, Coach Jen nings managed to maintain his com posure and served as an excellent exam ple for the type of man his players could look at with respect. Clay Stapleton of Iowa State re marked following the Cyclones' 16-13 loss to Nebraska, "If you have to lose, it's nice to lose to Bill, and this comes from the heart." Jennings knew his football and was able to get the players "up" for a game (ie. Penn State, Pittsburgh, Oklahoma (twice), Army and Texas). Although nnable to break the ice on relations with the play ers on some occasions, the quiet-spoken head man for the Huskers gained a great deal of respect and tthe players took pride in him. Johnny Lattner, ex-Notre Dame great, aptly expressed our feeling toward Coach Jennings Sunday night: "There is always a wonderful place for a wonderful man. Whatever it be, he'll (Jennings) go on and do a good job." Good luck, Bill. When Tippy Dye assumes full control of Nebraska athletics he will be faced with more problems than build ing a winning football team. Hiring a coach will be number one on Dye's list of things to do, but whoever Dye picks will certainly have.a rosy future ahead of him The Huskers will have the greatest nucleus of returning football talent that has been present irf several years. With lettermen bolstering every position, the 1962 Huskers could be the team Nebraskans have waited for so long. Only at the end spots (Purcell, Dick McDaniel and Pat Salerno all will be gone) will NU be undermanned. The Husker backfield looks great with Dennis Claridge, Thornton, Willie Ross, Rudy Johnson back. The new coach will certainly have the ma terial Let's hope he can build it into a winning football team. ' Dye, however, win be busy recruiting and trying to build up the entire sports program at Nebraska. Bill Or wig improved the overall sports program at NU and put the athletic department in the black financially but did little to improve the football situation. The gridiron picture is looking up now but how about the rest of Nebraska's teams. Let's take a look as last year's record. The only Ne braska team which was outstanding was the gymnastio crew. The gymnasts scored an unbeaten dual record of nine wins and no losses and finished a close second in the All College Championships. The rest of the Husker teams didn't do so well as Nebraska was last in the overall major and minor sports standings of the Big Eight Conference in the 1960-61 year. , The I960 football team won four, lost six and finished in a sixth place tie in the league. The cross country squad placed sixth in the conference meet after posting a season's record of three wins and twa losses. The 1961-62 cagers, short on experience, had a 10-13 season record, a conference mark of four wins and ten losses, and finished fifth in the Christmas Tourney and sixth in the final conference stand ings. Nebraska hasn't had a winning basketball season since 1950. Strong improvement was shown by the wrestling and swimming teams last year as the Husker mermen achieved their best mark in twenty years 9-4 dual meet record) but were fifth in the six team Big Eight conference meet. The grapplers posted their best won-lost dual record (5-3-11 since 1929 but finished last in the loop trials. The Cornhusker indoor and outdoor track teams, de spite only one dual meet loss all year, finished seventh in both conference meets. NX's baseballers bad a poor sea son, winning nine and losing 14. The diamond men posted a 7-11 conference record, good enough for sixth in the Big Eight standings. The tennis and golf teams also showed miserably in the conference meets, both finishing last The netters had' a disastrous 1-11 season mark while the golfers won ten and lost seven duals. - These facts show that while improvement was made in some sports there is still plenty of room for better teams. The Husker fans want winning teams. If we have to offer' more scholarships, let's foot the bill and get some winning teams. Being last in the Big Eight in major and minor sports is certainly nothing to be proud of .and it's our hope that Dye can put a swift kick into the Husker athletic program.

Tippy, Hank Visit Lincoln Tippy Dye, Nebraska's new athletic director, was in Lin coln Monday along with Wich ita football coach Hank Fold berg. Dye, back in Wichita now, said on a radio interview last night that Foldberg, a lead ing candidate for the vacated Husker football coaching spot, "is still considering three jobs. There are a lot of schools interested in him." Dye, who said he plans to move to Lincoln sometime around Jan. 1, said that Fold berg's dilemna of which job to accept should "be solved within a week's time." The new Husker AD was also questioned about Otto Graham, present coach at the Coast Guard. Dye replied, "I don't know whether Otto wants to move." Andrew's Caniield Boucher MacLean Gui Jl Benton ..
