Oklahoma State retained its
Big Eight wrestling cham
pionship for the third year in
a row while Nebraska came
in last at Norman, Oklahoma
as both teams now look for
ward to the N.C.A.A. tourna
ment March 21 through the
23 at Kent, Ohio.
Husker hopes at the nation
al tournament still rest with
its two lightweights, S t e v
Walenz and Mike Nissen. Nis
sen and Walenz gained sec
ond and fourth places re
spectively in the Big Eight
finals.
Nebraska's duo still have
excellent chances because the
113 and 123 weights wer
especially tough this year in
the Big Eight, a conference
whose top individuals perenl
ally place high in the N.C.A.A,
Nissen lost a close match
to favorite Mark McCracken
in the 123 pound finale, 5 to 3,
The Nebraskan lost point
early in the match when he
thought he was off the mat
and pressed his opponent vig
orously in the final period to
try to regain the advantage,
McCracken has been the
Nissen nemisis this year but
the Scarlet grappler can still
look confidently for victory
over the Oklahoman in the
nationals. McCracken edged
Dave Unruh of Iowa State in
the semifinals, 4-to 3, while
Nissen handled Unruh easily
during the season, 7 to L This
fact coupled with Nissen s
misfortune early in the Big
Eight match could spell the
difference in the nationals
Walenz pushed highly re
garded Jyo Umezawa to a
thin 1 to 1 regulation, 1 to 1
overtime,' referee's decision
victory in the consolation fi
nals. Walenz had previously
lost to Lowell Stewart, the
eventual champion, 3 to 0.
None of the other Husker
matmen reached the cham
pionship or consolation finals
except Bob Zartner, who was
one of only four heavies in
the tournament.
Oklahoma State won the Big
Eight title with four firsts and
three seconds for 85 points
well ahead of arch-rival Okla
homa who managed 71 points
Iowa State was third with 65
points.
Wayne Baughman, Okla
homa's defending 191 national
champion, was named the
tournament s most valuable
wrestler- Baughman pinned
two early rivals and then
soundly thrashed Oklahoma
State's Everett Knott in the
finals to gain the award.

Big 8 Swim Champ
Bauers Establishes
New School Markers
Star of the Week award
this week goes to Husker
swimmer Vern Bauers for his
performance in the Big Eight
meet last -week at the Lin
coln High pool.
Bauers won a total of four
gold medals, two for indivi
dual efforts in the breast
stroke and two for his par
ticipation on Nebraska's win
ning relay teams.
Bauers, a 6-2 senior from
York, dethroned defending
champion Bill Murdock in
both the 100-yard and 200-yard
breaststroke events. Bauers
swam the 100-yard breast in
1:03.6 and in the 200-yard
event he swam the distance
in 2:23.9.
Bauers. swimming a lee on
the medley team, helped
push the team to a new Big
Eight record and a varsity
record of 3:47.3. On Saturday,
in the last event of the meet,
the 400-vard freestyle relay.
Bauers helped establish a new
Big Eight record in the event
with a 3:24.1 clocking for the
Huskers.
In high school Bauers con
centrated on earning all-con
ference honors in basketball,
leaving his swimming efforts
to summer AAU competion.
Nebraska was the only school
to offer him aswimming
grant-in-aid and Bauers took
it. Bauers said that if he had
not gotten the swimming
grant from NU, he would
probably have gone to a
smaller state college to piay
basketball.
Bauers started swimming at
the age of nine and as a
16-year-old, he set a national
and meet record in the Mid
west AAU meet in the 100
yard breaststroke.
This year Bauers has estab
lished a new varsity and poll

record in the 200-yard breast
stroke with a time of 2:23.9.
He has also swam consistent
ly on the 400-yard medley re
lay team with teammates Phil
Swaim, Bill Henry, and Bill
Fowles. In their last outing
in the Big Eight meet the
group set a new Big Eight
and varsity record with a
3:47.3 clocking.
Next goal for Bauers will
be at the end of this month
when he travels to compete
in the NCAA swimming cham
pionships in the breaststroke
events and in the 400-yard
medley relay event.
Bauers' only comment on
receiving four gold medals
at the Big Eight champion
ships was "I still don't be-,
lieve it." Well, seeing is be-'

The maddest happenings of the Coliseum begin to
daythe State Basketball Tournament.
And as promised last week, I will attempt to pick
the winners of the respective classes. Half of these
choices will be pure guesswork since I am not very
familiar with the lower classes. Consequently, I will at
tempt to pick the winners of all the Class A games
and then attempt to pick the Sate Champ in the lower
classes.
All Class A games will be played at the Coliseum
(by the way, your student stickets are not good for
any of the games) with Hastings and Omaha Tech lead
ing it off. Tech will win this one. Hastings has an easy
district.
North Platte will take it on the chin against bal
anced Columbus. Creighton Prep-will massacre North
Platte even though the Platters slapped powerful Mc
Cook in the districts. Lincoln High will get revenge on
Omaha Central in the final game of the final round.
In the second round one of the be-
ter games of the tournament will find
Tech facing Columbus. Tech will win this
one but not without a fight from the Dis
coverers. ri..t.u n- ...in J vi l it. .i
icigniuii ricu win urup uncum men 5
without much sweat to advance to the finals.
i
The finals will probably leave all
the fans on their feet. Tech wants revenge
from last year but Creighton has been Akin
pointing this year with the maturation of some of the young
er players. I'll go along with disciplined, balanced PREP,
but if Fred Hare gets hot it's all over.
In Class B Falls City and Ogallala will probably
make it to the finals. Falls City has won when the
chips were down (like against University High in the
districts), and Ogallala is a western school and hasn't
had the tougher Class B competition. Although from
what I hear Ogallala is the top team, but I will go along
with Falls City.
In Class C I drew straws and came up with PONCA
if they get by Utica in the first round. .
In Class D DeWitt, Polk and Herman are the top
teams. Another guess POLK (I'd like to see them
take it for the third time).
All my picks will probably get slapped in the first
round.

Kelly Petersen led the six
Delt scorers with ten points.
The Delts hit only half of
their twelve charity tosses
as compared to 9 of 16 for
the winners.
Approximately 75 rooters

mainly on outside set shots.
The undefeated Misfits ran
into an aroused Navy and
lost 44 to 30 Tuesday night
on the Coliseum maples. Out

In many ways the story of the Thunderbird is one of
the most unusual in the automobile business. The
whole idea of the car was born at one of the great
European automobile shows. The then president of
our company pointed to some of the small, lush sports
cars that are always a center of attention at such
shows and asked his companion, "Why can't we build
something like these?"
The companion, who later became a vice president
of the company, said, "It just so happens I have one
on the boards. I'll show it to you when we get back to
Detroit." Then as fast as he could discreetly get to a
transatlantic. telephone he called his assistant and told
him, "Remember that car we've been talking about?
Finish those sketches orf it"
The Thunderbird became one of the few cars ever
built that was produced essentially as the original
sketches presented it Most cars undergo countless
changes in the design period. But there was a natural
clarity and cleanness to the Thunderbird design that
immediately captured all of us at Ford.
It was probably this clean, sharp look that won so
many friends so fast when the car went into produc
tion. That first Thunderbird had its drawbacks. For
example, it was too soft-sprung for true sports-car
handling. But, the truth is, it was not designed in the
European tradition of the fast performance car. Some
people called it a sports car but we never did, We
called it a "personal" car; a small, fairly luxurious car
that was fun to look at and fun to drive. It had its
own integrity: it was one alone.
We built the Thunderbird as a bellwether car for
Ford. It was our intention to test new ideas before
we put them into our Foids, Fairlanes and Falcons.
The new Ford ride and Swing-Away steering wheel
appeared first on the Thunderbird, for instance. How
ever, we never foresaw the extraordinary influence
Thunderbird would have on the whole automobile
business here and abroad. Almost everybody offers
the Thunderbird bucket seats these days. And the
Thunderbird look is the most decisive styling of the '60s.
The Thunderbird is a classic, made so by a peculiar
blend of magic ingredients of which we would love
to know the secret. We're building cars right now we
hope will become classics, but the truth is, we don't
make classics, we make cars. People make the car a
classic. And that's the story of the Thunderbird.
