"No, here!" "Quick, here," came shouts from other girls. The scene? No, it wasn't the tossing of a bridal bouquet at a wedding but rather Grant Memorial Hall during a girls' intramural basketball game. , Girls' basketball is played with six players, and no more than four from any one team can be at one basket at the same time. Thus there are always two people from each team under the basket at all times. These people are called stationary and cannot cross the center line. Passing Game All of which makes .the game quite a passer's ' delight. To play skillfully, a girl must master all kinds of .passing techniques. Further limiting her footwork is a rule allowing only three dribbles. However, one girl I observed had got around the three dribble rule rather nicely. She had discovered just how much impetus to give the ball so that she could keep up with it without touching it. She could travel nearly the distance of the court running along side the ball and only touching it twice. Although the males of this University may think girls' basketball to be a slow and easy game I doubt that there are any fewer injuries in girls' than boys' basketball. 'UGH!' In fact the girls I watched ignored most of the spills of the game. One particular incident stands out to credit of the girls' courage. One little girl (why does the littlest girl on the floor always have to guard the biggest?) ended up on the bottom of a group of three coeds who had gone after a rebound. Quickly her captain leaned over her and asked "Are you all right?" to which the girl, who had received a knee to the stomach, replied "UGH!" and the game went on. sballeirs T Nebraska hosts powerful Kansas in a three-game series this week-end in an attempt to break into the winning col umn of the Big Eight. y. , Sporting1 "an 0-3 record in conference play, the Cor n huskers open their first home stand of the season with seven sophomores in the starting line-up.

Aft er twisting it Tuesday, Bornie has been unable to practice and still remains doubtful as a starter. Coach' Sharpe has benched starter Ron Douglas for the first game in hopes that he will snap out of his current slump. Kansas, picked by many to give Missouri a tough fight for the Big-8 championship this year, will start Steve Renko on the mound for the first game. Renko may be remembered as the quarter back on the KU football team this past fall and also as play ing on the basketball team. This past week Sharpe has been trying to bolster the team morale after a rather slow start by scrimmaging them against the freshman team. "The smiles are start ing to come back to their faces," he said after turning them loose on the frosh hurl ers. The presence of seven soph omores in the starting line-up sounds good for the future, but nevertheless, there are eighteen games left on this year's schedule. According to Sharpe, however, the sophs have done no worse than the veterans on the team. Leading the team in hitting so far are Randy Harris (.363), the secondbase man, Gary Tunison (.344), the left fielder. Sharpe has hopes that the psychological lift of the first home series will boost some other averages too. o AAeeit ECU Frosh Baseball Team Works With Varsity With only two regularly scheduled games on tap for Coach Monte Kiffin's junior batsmen, actual game condi tions are hard to come by. However, this past week the frosh have had their hands full with the varsity. Hitting the ball well against the varsity have been Jim Smith, shortstop from Colum bus, Roger Douglas, Alex Walter, and Robin Stickney, the catcher. Defensively John Myer has performed quite ably in left field. The two top pitchers at this stage seem to be Gary Nie bauer (6'4"), and Stan Ba hasen (6'3") both right-handers. All the freshmen will be trying to do exceptionally well in these varsity scrimmages because a final cut is still pending in order to cut the squad to 25 men. By the time the two games with the Offut Air Force Base roll around on May 9 and May 23, the freshmen should at least be well-practiced.

Read Nebraskan Want Ads N asriQ For Oxqti Sought A search for names for two nameless oxen is now being conducted by the State Game, Forestation, and Parks Com mission. The oxen have been chosen as a real life replica of the famous Nebraskaland symbol of the two oxen drawing a Conestoga wagon. These animals with the wagon will appear in parades and civic promotions throughout the state this summer. When not making public appearances, the Conestoga will serve as a portable tourist station on Interstate 80 near Greenwood. A number of names for the oxen have already been sub mitted in the naming contest according to Mel Steen, com mission director. Winner of the contest will receive a free week's vaca tion for two at the state park of his choice, with all the facilities of the park free. This includes everything except food. The first 10 runners-up will receive three-year sub scriptions to the Game Com mission's magazine, OUT DOOR NEBRASKAland. The deadline for entering the name contest is June 1. There is no limit on entries, but each set of names must be sent in on a separate post card or letter. To insure correct reading of the entries, they should be printed or typewritten. Several pairs of names al ready submitted have in cluded feminine names. Steen reports that both the oxen are boys and feminine names must be disqualified. If the names selected as the winners are submitted by more than one person, the entry bearing the earliest postmark will be declared the winner. As helpful hints to anyone entering contest, Steen pro vided a description of the oxen. Both, he says, are doc ile, aloof and stand about 45 inches at the shoulder. One is roan colored with a white "V" on his forehead; the other is black and white with a white shield on his forehead. The roan weighs about 800 pounds and his teammate weighs around 750 pounds, Steen reports that both are completely disinterested in people and can be lured only by the prospect of a free handout of pellets of hay. Entries should be sent to NEBRASKAland, State Capi tal Lincoln, 68509. CAIVOE TRIPS Cruise and explore the Quetico Superior wilderness exciting adventure for everyone only $6.50 per person per day!
