"REBEL" ROLLS Tommy Russell, senior Husker
eager, was tabbed "Star of the Week" for his key per
formances last week against Iowa State and Missouri.
Russell Selected
As Star of Week
By RICK AKIN
Sports Staff Writer
Tom Russell, 6-7 . senior eag
er from Independence, Kan.,
Is this week's recipient of the
Daily Nebraskan Star of the
Week award.
Russell receives this award
on the merit of his 26 points
in the 79-66 loss to Iowa State
and his 14 point production
last Saturday in the Missouri
win.
Thus far this season big
Tom has been the most con
sistent Husker in both scoring
and rebounding. He leads the
team hi both categories w ith
. 316 points (26.1 of the team
total) and 160 rebounds.
Playing the post a lot of
the time of late, Russell is
very effective at driving
around his defensive man and
scoring a lay up. In this man
ner 'Rebel' scores most of his
points and feels he is more
effective there but adds, "Just
so I play; that's what counts."
Started in 6th Grade
Russell started his basket
ball days in the sixth grade
when a teacher organized a
team. In his. senior year in
high school he was All-State
and All-Conference in Inde
pendence. In the finals of the state
tourney that year Inde
pendence lost to Witchita
North which was led by Jerry
Gardner, Kansas stalwart to
day, who Russell tabs as "one
of the best in the league."
Upon graduation Russell
went to Independence Junior
College and after two years
transferred to Nebraska.
'Rebounding Difference
"The transition from junior
college ball to Big 'Eight ball
is not as great as the change
from high school to junior col
lege," said Russell. "The re
bounding is the big difference
between college and junior col-
lese-" . . ;
After arriving in trie Husk
er camp, Russell promptly
made a name for himself in
the Big Eight. In his first
season here he was selected
as honorable mention in the
Big Eight.
This year Tom was predict
ed to make third string on the
All America squad by Sport
Review magazine.
Close Games
Concerning the team's show
ing so far this season, Russell
feels that "our win-loss record
could be a lot different. We
have played in' 11 or 12 games
which have been decided by
four points or less and if we
had won a few more of those,
"This has been the trend in
other league games so far
this year," continued Russell.
"It seems the games are a
lot closer this year than last.
Returning to the squad's
performance Russell said,
"We have also run into some
teams which have been very
hot in their shooting. When a
team shoots around 69 such
as Iowa State and Colorado
did against us, they are tough
to beat."
Russell praised Pat McKen
zie and Mike Wroblewski of
Kansas State as the best cag
ers in the league who have de
fended him and the best he
has defended, respectively.
As for the future of basket
ball at Nebraska Russell said,
"It lools very bright with all
the experienced sophomores
on this year's squad returning."

'Rebel' Would Have Traded
Scoring Record for Victory
By BOB PROKOP
Sports Columnist
In typical Tom Russell
fashion, the "Rebel" com
mented on his record in the
following manner: "Aw, it's
great to have, set the record
but I'd have traded the rec
ord for the win." During the
game, Tom had no idea that
he was closing in on the rec
ord and his eight point salvo
in the final three minutes
were the clinching factor.
Coach Jerry Bush was very
pleased with Tom's record
performance and with h i s
play all season. Jerry further
commented that Rex Swett
played one of his better
games this year and J i m
Huge, who entered a Husker
contest for the first time this
year, did extremely well con
sidering the circumstances he
was under.
Further Bush comments
were mainly about Russell's
tremendous play and hoping
his ball club would be ready
for the second meeting with
Missouri Saturday.
Daryl Petsch, sidelined be
cause of an ankle injury, said
that he'll suit up Saturday
and stated that he is more
than anxious to get back into
action if Bush decides to let
him, play.
On the other side of the
locker room, the jovial Dick
Harp, winning his second
game in the Big Eight Con
ference this season, jested
with the statement, "We
didn't need the win, we've
been winning, so much this
vear. We win 'em close, we
lose 'em close, nothing in be
tween Whatsoever."
Commenting on the game
itself, "We were lucky to get
off the point of no return,
that was the turning point of
the game." He was referring
to the 56-56 and 58-58 ties in
curred in the final minutes of
the game. ' - .
Coach Harp has installed
the Bruce Drake shuffle, the
former offense used by Okla
homa during Drake's tenure
there. Harp was forced to go
to this offense since he lacks
the big men which are essen
tial to today's game.
Harp rose to his feet sever
al times during the game,
particularly on Nolen" Elli
son's fifth foul. At the time
the contest was 68-64 and the
Huskers had two free throws.
He commented that he was
fortunate that the officials
hadn't called a technical foul
for his actions but felt that
in the heat of the game most
coaches occasionally lose
their composure.

the stream washes you
completely away.
If the new program is
not effected this year
there is a great possibili
ty that the same will
hold true next year. It
would be pretty easy to
wait with the planning
until second semester and
then Panhell will find
themselves in the exact
spot they are now.
Besides, this would be
the chance for Panhell to
prove to the campus and
even its own sorority
members that it really is
capable of doing some
thing constructive outside
of handling Rush Week.

ENJOY GAMES LIKE 3-IXTIC-TAC-TOE?
Then you'd like computer programming, the new career
that makes fuii nst of your logical talents. If you have a
keen analytical and logical mind and want to use it fully
after college then computer programming at IBM may
be just the career you've always looked forward to.
A computer programmer examines a business, indus
trial, or scientific problem and translates it into a special
mathematical-logical language for the computer. Working
at amazing speeds, the computer can produce answers
in minutes, even seconds. Some of these answers might
actually take days to produce by other methods.
The problems are interesting and varied. IBM pro
grammers have used computers to predict hurricanes, tell
days ahead where satellites will be in space,-locate the
best factory sites for businessmen, and aid highway engi
neers in laying out roads. ,
You naturally have r
a better chance to grow j
with a growth company, g.
No previous knowledge of computers is necessary; an
intensive training course will equip you for your work. But
you should have an analytical and logical turn of mind,
and at least two years of college mathematics.
In computer programming you will find that the salaries
are excellent? and that the future can be virtually as un
limited as the future of the computer itself. There are
ample opportunities for continued education.
The IBM representative will interview on your campus.
He will be glad to give you details about this fascinating
new profession. Your placement office will make an ap
pointment. All qualified applicants will be considered for
employment without regard to race, creed, color or na
tional origin. Or you may write, outlining briefly your
background, to: Manager of Technical Recruitment, IBM
