Oklahoma State Cagers
Dominate Big Eight Stats
Oklahoma State's Henry Iba maintained all year that
it would take near 45 per cent shooting from the field to
win the Big Eight Conference basketball title and the trip
to the NCAA regionals.
He was right and it was his Cowboys getting the job
done, dropping 325 of 728 tries for a 44.6 clip, a figure
good enough to pace the Conference in this team statistical
category.
The Cowboys' roundup of Big Eight basketball honors
didn't stop with the championship and the field shooting
title, though. They also copped the team defense crown,
allowing only 55.3 points a game Kansas was a distant
second with 63.2 and the free throw shooting honors
with 75.9 per cent Iowa State was well back with 71.1
made.
The only team titles to elude the Cowboys were team
offense Missouri topped all with a 71.8 average and
team rebounding Colorado edged Oklahoma, 51.66 per
cent to 51.61 per cent where they were a close third with
51.5.
Taking over on the individual front was the Cowboys
Jim King, the "Mr. Everything" in the league. King
waltzed away with the field goal and free throw shooting
titles, hitting 57.5 from the field and 85.3 from the line.
He also ranked ninth in scoring, 13.9, and third in re
bounding, 10.6.
Tied for the rebounding leadership going into the final
weekend of the season, Missouri's George Flamank edged
teammate Ned Monsees by 12. Flamank had 169 for a
12.1 average. Monsees, who was second, had 157. Kansas'
Walter Wesley, who set two scoring records with his 337
points and 150 field goals, won the point-producing crown
with his 26.9 average. Iowa State's Bob Ziegler was sec
ond with a 19.3 mark.

Beta Theta Pi Garners
Intramural "B" Crown
Burnett Takes
Residence Title
By James Pearse
Weathering a sputtering of
fense, the Beta Theta Pi team
now reigns as Class "B"
Champs by virtue of a 25-24
decision.
The Phi Kappa Ps'is pulled
out to a 9-7 first quarter ad
vantage. With the Betas find
ing it difficult to crack the
rigid zone defense set up
against them, the play be
came spirited.
The Phi Psis went out at
half time with a 18-13 bulge.
Slowing the pace in the third
quarter in order to get back
into the game, the Betas
moved up with the close of
the period, 20-19.
The fourth stanza continued
to snow tne deliberate tone
of the contest. Both teams
worked for the percentage
shot with the Betas grabbing
the lead for keeps at 23-22.
The Betas then moved out
to a 25-22 edge as time slipped
by the board. When the Phi
Psis collected their last goal
to pull within one point, it
seemed to be a dying effort.
However, a missed Beta
free throw and a fast break
led to a foul at the buzzer and
sent Phi Psi Bob Churchich
to the charity stripe with a
one and one opportunity. Amid
mixed cheering from the side
lines the ball rimmed away
and the championship was
placed in the laps of the
Betas.
Churchich and Steve War
den headed the Phi Psi's scor
ing with eight points respec
tively. Van Vahle led the
Beta attack by collecting
nine. Ji m Korshoj and Jim
Penney contributed steady
board play as the Beta team
was coming from behind.
Phi Kappa Psi "A" upended
Sigma Phi Epsilon "A" in
their game Tuesday night 44-
36.
This sets the stage for a
climactic finale of the Frater
nity "A" league tournament.
The Phi Psis came up from
the losers bracket after a pre
vious loss to the Sig Eps. This
puts the Phi Psis record
against the Sig Eps at two
wins and one loss.
Rebounding is always an
important factor when these
two tall teams meet, and this
time the Phi Psis used their
boardmen to good advantage.

stretches all 6'6" to pick off a rebound in the Beta-Phi
Psi game. Phi Psi Steve Warden is on hand to extend a
protective arm, as Beta Jim Korshoj attempts to screen
Phi Psi Jack Larson.
ter tied the Phi Psis moved
out to a six point advantage
at the half, with their hustling
guard Larry Wachholtz lead
ing the way.
In the second half the Sig
Eps stayed close but couldn't
manage a rally to overcome
the Phi Psi lead.
Wachholtz was high for the
Phi Psis with 15 points, with
Jerry Webb second at nine.
Kent Beachler paced Hie
Sig Ep attack with 12 points,
while Tim Schmad scored
nine.
Freeman White led Bur
nett to a 67-52 victory over
Governor's. Burnett is the
Burr-Selleck champ and Gov
ernor's is the Cather Hall
champ.
White played as if basket
ball was his forte as he took
game honors with 29 points.
Burnett had complete control
of the game as they piled up
margins in every period.

they were down by seven
when they entered the third
quarter. In the third quarter

outscoring the Aggies 18-6.

By Peggy Speece
It's funny how at 22 you feel like a has-been. Just
when that old sheepskin is going to look pretty good come
June 13, you feel like maybe a whole part of your life is
passing away from you. t
Never did I feel more like that than last Saturday as
I had the privilege to proctor a high school contest in
sports writing.
And I, along with 80 per cent of the people on this
campus, will feel that way again this coming weekend.
Kosmet Klub had a phrase for it: Mad, Mad Mania.
No other phrase quite so aptly describes that peculiar
form of Nebraska athletic fever known as the state high
school basketball tournament.
Picking the winners for the tournament is fun bu
precarious. Almost as precarious as a tiger at a safari
hunters convention.
And I guess I like to live dangerously.
My selections for this year's series:
CLASS A Omaha's City Auditorium could see the
best race of the tournament. Defending champion Creigh
ton Prep is back with 6-4 Sam Buda, McCook represents
the Big Ten's biggest threat in years, and Boys Town
was ranked number one at the end of regular season play.
I feel that Boys Town, carrying the momentum of a 12
game winning streak and playing to familiar crowds,
should win it. BOYS TOWN.
CLASS B This class is fielding one of the weakest
fields in years. Aside from defending champion and num
ber one seeded Ralston, the teams have not been out
standing. Madison, fourth ranked during the season, rep
resents a threat and so does Omaha Holy Name, a strong
"tourney team". However, it will be an upset in my book
if anyone but Ralston wins it. RALSTON.
CLASS C Lincoln basketball fans interested in seeing
a good game should take in some of the contests in this
class. These are the teams that beat many of the Class
B contenders. The top four ranked teams University
High, Wood River, Hebron and Fullerton all survived dis
trict tests. Going against the crowd who thinks Uni High
can take the crown, I'd like to play a hunch and pick
Hebron. Only regular season loss was to Uni High and I
don't think the Bears would let it happen again. HEBRON.
CLASS D This is the class of upsets, this is the class
that sees some inspired team with the whole town of 180
persons behind it climb to undreamed of glory. Defending
cnampion tseaver Crossing is back but with a whole new
starting team. Outstanding records have been posted by
Elgin St. Boniface, Guide Rock and Platte Center. I think
I'll go along with Guide Rock and their 6-3 front line.
GUIDE ROCK.
And now that my own brother won't even speak to me
I'll quit. Why should he I didn't pick his school to win.
