Illness almost prevented
Dennis Albers from making
the trip to the Big Eight Gym
nastics Meet last weekend,
but the weakened senior came
through with five wins to pace
the Cornhuskers to the title.
Just before leaving for
Ames, la., last Thursday Al
bers pulled in lame but doc
tors told Coach Jack Geier it
would be all right to take Al
bers even though he was very
weak.
He "warmed up for only
about ten minutes before the
meet whereas he usually
takes about an hour," Geier
said.
In the finals Albers "per
formed to the highest of his
ability but his routines were
not as sharp as they can be,"
Geier said.
Albers' 80.5 points led Corn
husker individuals who piled
up 203.5 for the championship.
Iowa State placed second with
144.5.
Winning the floor exercise,
side horse, tumbling, long
horse and all-around events
brought a fitting close to a
brilliant three-year career for
Albers.
Of his team Geier said:
"All the kids did a good iob.
Since this was the first con
ference meet, the pressure
was tremendous especially in
the preliminaries. But when
we got to the finals our boys
were a little more relaxed."
Francis Allen won the paral
lei bars, and came in second
in the floor exercise, tumbling
and the all-around events. Ge
ier said Allen "broke a couple
of times in the finals but as a
result of his second effort,
stayed in there to help us."
The Huskers finished the
season with an 8-1 dual rec
ord and added the Northwest
Open Gymnastics Champion
ships title and conference title
to their laurels.
Geier loses three lettermen,
Albers, Louis Burkel and Tom
Sitzman for next season. Re
turning will be Allen, J i m
Howard, who finished fifth in
the all-around, and tumbling
specialist Biff Pfeiff.
Next season Geier hopes to
use a 10-man team instead of
six to take some of the work
load off only a few individuals.
souri's Bill Younger and Kan
sas' Floyd Manning tied in the
pole vault at a height of 15-8.
Robin Lingle of Missouri
tied the existing 1,000 yard
record with a time of 2:11.6.
Neither of these records were
better than the marks posted
in the Big Ten meet however.
The Big Ten pole vault was
won in 15-8V4 while the 1,000
by Michigan State's Mike
Martens yard run was won in
a 2:10.3 clocking.
The Big Eight came out
ahead in only two events on
the comparison charts, and
neither of these two events
approach Big Eight records.
Gene Crews of Missouri
tossed the shot 57-11 to win
the Big Eight as compared to
Michigan's Roger Smitt who
won the Big Ten with 55-lOVs.
Lingle, the Tiger's distance
ace, ran a 4:10 mile to take
the Big Eight while 4:14.4 was
the winning effort in the Big
Ten.
The hurdle events cannot
be compared since Big Ten
barrier men have to run an
extra 10 yards beyond t h e
Big Eight distance of 60
yards.
The larger conference near,
ly always shows up better, in
a comparison of times and
distances, but rarely is it de
cisive a margin as this year.
the PEG-BOARD
by Peggy Speece
March is near a gusty end, basketball, indoor track,
gymnastics and wrestling are over, and everyone begins
to think of balmy Spring days.
. Spring sports come to the fore as the tennis racquet!
'and golf clubs start to appear.
For fcotbaU Coach Bob Devaney, Spring football Is
"just around the corner."
April 6th, first Monday after Spring vacation, marks
the opening date for the drills.
A major reconstruction job faces the Husker mentor
if he is to repeat last year's Big Eight championship.
Nebraska fans are likely to have every faith that Devaney
is entirely capable of producing another champion.
In two short years, this wonder-man has brought Ne
braska from the depths of the Big Eight conference to
the status of a national football power.
Devaney's first year, 1962, saw the Scarlet and Cream
win eight of 10 regular season games, then whip Miami
36-34 in a Gotham Bowl thriller.
1962 proved to be just a warm-up season, as the Huskers
stormed to an undefeated conference season last fall, and
stunned a competent Auburn squad 13-7 in the Orange
Bowl.
Aa spring drills open, Nebraska and the nation will be
wondering "Can the Devaney do it again?" If he can't,
then no one else can.
