15 minutes remaining in the
contest.

JONES 'Star
Roundballer Jones
Nebraskan 'Star
For Initial
By AL SPORE
Nebraskan Sports Writer
Last year Charlie Jones had
a 4.9 points per game aver
age.
Last Saturday night Charlie
Jones had 30 points as Ne
braska eased by Texas Tech
in their season opener, 68-66.
Four of these 30 points
came in the last two minutes
of play as the Huskers came
from behind and won the con
test on Bill Vincent's hook
shot in the last six seconds
of play. For this showing,
Jones is the Nebraskan 'Star
of the Week'.
"We shot extremely well
with an exceptionally good
third quarter," commented
the smooth guard, looking back
on the Tech game. The Husk
er cagers managed a credit
able 53.1 of their field goal
completions with 61.9 in the
second half.
Lose to Houston
Coach Jerry Bush's round-
ballers dropped their second
test to a tough Houston quin
tet Monday night, 68-61, and
open the home season in Lin
coln Saturday night when they
meet the Air Force Academy.
Commenting on the Houston
loss, Jones felt the Huskers
could have won without the
loss of senior Ivan Grupe who
fouled out. "We could have
beat them with Grupe, and if
we played them again I think
we could beat them," Jones
surmised.
Eyeing the Husker season
Charlie commented. "We'll
Dlav them as they come along
We're not as bad as the Big
Eight has us pictured," he
continued.

in
Jones hails from Washing
ton D.C., where he played
high school ball at Cardoza
High. He then went in to the
service where he played for
the 7th Army Special Troops.
His 30 points last Saturday
was a college high for him
but not a career high. Jones
managed 47 while in the serv
ice when his team played the
Egyptian Olympic team in
Cairo, Egypt.
When asked why he attend
ed Nebraska Jones described
his aquaintance with a friend
of Coach Bush's he met in
the service that influenced his
decision to attend NU.
Replay
Looking back on Nebraska's
9-16 season last year a few
games of which were lost a
handful of points, Charlie felt
it wasn't because the other
teams were that much better;
rather, mistakes hurt the
Husker cagers most.
"Kansas State was the only
club that was that much bet
ter than us," Jones comment
ed. With the loss of Big Eight
selection Bill Russell this
year Bush has been faced
with the1 problem of a re
placement. To this assignment
Bush has put 6-7 center Bill
Vincent.
"I feel Vincent is a better
shooter but not as strong on
the board s," commented
Jones of the replacement.

From the Stick
By RICK AKIN
Sports Editor
Now that things have kind of settled down after big
day last Tuesday when the Huskers accepted the bowl
bid for Dec. 14, let's look at the Gotham Bowl.
First of all, the Huskers are not going to make a
mint on the deal. They will probably just make enough
to cover traveling expenses. '
Secondly, there is some question whether' television
will cover the bowl after last year's showing in which
only 15,000 New Yorkers turned out for the ball game.
ABC has the option but hasn't picked as of press
time. -
Third, the Gotham Bowl has not had enough time
to come into national prominence since it is only two
years old and hasn't as yet drawn the very top teams
"in the country.
Fourth, the New York fans are known for their un
hospitable treatment of the efforts of ath
etes. including Mickey Mantle.
BUT, in the case the good overrides
the bad.
First of all. the Huskers will prove
to the people of New York
dians have left this "desert wasteland"
known as Nebraska, which can play some
very fine football.
Secondly, the acception shows that
Husker gridders are not the kind to lay
down and die. After the loss to Okla
homa, it would have been just as easy
to say, "Pass," and get the school work done or sit in the
Union from 3-5 p.m. instead.
Third, with the Huskers playing before Christmas va
cations, it will give the players a chance to go home
for the holidays and still play in a bowl game.
Fourth, the bowl will give the players a little vacation
which they deserve after such a fine 8-2 season. But
as Willie Ross said, "The main reason we are going is
to win."
All in all it should be a big weekend for all con
cerned, even though George Mira's arm may slow things
down a little bit.
The basketball team also looks like it might be com
ing around. Fine show down in the Lone Star State. I
hope Vincent can keep up the pace which he has started.
