Coach's Worries Double With Baby, Tournament By Jim Swartz Without trying to put the whammy on this year's bas ketball squad, I'd like to be optimistic and say that maybe basketball might soon become a tradition at Nebraska. Under the direction of Coach Joe Cipriano, now in his third year, the basketball team has shown steady and en couraging progress. Before the year Coach Cipriano tabbed his cagers as the "sleepers in the Big Eight" and after two impressive opening wins his forecast could come true. Although this year's team lacks the altitude that has become the cornerstone of the court game, it appears that any height deficit is being made up by their quickness and the type of ball that Cipriano plays, once described as "go-go". With two games out of the way and the usual stiff com petition of the Big Eight still ahead of them, the cagers will have a long and hard haul. Don't be surprised though if they just happen to sneak up on what could be the best season in Nebraska's basket ball history (remember what Coach Devancy did in his "re building year"). Cipriano has got the personnel that he needs to do it and he plays the kind of game that wins. Ticket Director Jim Pittenger had the staggering job this year of figuring out how to handle the tickets for the Orange Bowl. Under Pittenger's scrutiny and management, a record number of Bowl tickets were sold to Nebraskans for the New Year's Eve classic. The handling of student ticket sales is especially com mendable because of the student stampede that it success fully avoided. While being able to handle all student ticket requests Pittenger managed to avoid any panic that would have resulted in shortage of tickets and the scalping prac tice, which appears to have been avoided. Congratulations Mr. Pittenger, on a job well done. Which is more important, a baby or a wrestling match? For Orval Borgialli, Nebras ka wrestling coach, a com bination of the two has been keeping him between the hos pital and the University Coli seum. In preparation for the AAU i Wrestling Tournament this weekend, Borgialli has been pushing extra hard to get his matmen ready for competi tion. Yesterday at 2:45 p.m. Bor gialli received a call at the Coliseum from his expectant wife, Carol. Wasting no time, the wrestling mentor jumped into his car and sped over six miles to his home and rushed his wife to the hospital. "It may be a false alarm," said Borgialli. "But w hen Carol has an alarm, it's usual ly not false!" he exclaimed. After getting his wife safely to the hospital, Borgialli quickly returned ho the Coli seum to give his wrestlers some final hints for the week end tourney. The Borgialli's have t w o other children, Susan, 7 and Merlen, 4. To add to Borgialli's excite ment, a young man w h o m Borgialli coached in high school stopped in to see him just as he returned from the hospital. Tom Thompson, now a student at the University of Wyoming, wrestled four years under Borgialli's training at Lusk, Wyo.At Lusk, Thomp- Orang I son won the state champion- ' ckln In tliA lin a irtrumt tt ! nlnro 91UJJ ill uvutj ntigiik tlda three years In a row, was the Rocky Mountain AAU champ his senior year in high school and in 1964, won the Olympic free-style championship. In the AAU tourney in Lin- coin this weekend, Thompson will wrestle against Nebras ka's Carel Stith, and Borgialli rates both matmen as "two of the finer heavyweights in the tournament." Smiling, Borgialli admitted that under the circumstances, his loyal ties extend to both men, but he will naturally favor Stith. "We're going to hit 'em with everthing we ve got!" That is how Husker wres tling coach Orval Borgialli de scribed his plans for the Great Plains Invitational Wrestling Tournament today and tomor-1 row. Borgialli reported that he has .')6 freshman and varsity wrestlers entered for Nebras ka. The annual tournament has drawn over 230 competi tors from the midwestern United States. The tourney, under the au spices of the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) will begin today shortly after two p.m. There will be a break for supper and wrestling will resume again at 7:30 p.m. Saturday's activi ties will run throughout t h e day.

Cagers Travel; Simmons, Lantz Lead Nebraska cagers head West this weekend for a two-night stand against the University of California. Coach Joe Cipriano likely will go with the same lineup that he has used in the first two games, both ended in de cisive Nebraska victories. The Huskers will face their first 7' foot man of the sea son and what Cipriano called an improved California team over last year. In last year's action the Huskers hosted California and split the series 1-1. Grant Simmons continues to lead Husker scoring after his 29 point output against Wisconsin. The senior floor leader tops the squad with aj 20.5 two game average andi has hauled in eight rebounds. I Sophomore Tom Baack fol lows Simmons with an 18.5 average and lias captured 16 rebounds. Veterans Willie Campbell and Nate Branch have each come up with 12 rebounds and have contri buted an average of 15 and 12.5 points respectively to the Husker scoring effort. Newcomer Stuart Lantz leads all rebounders with a 20 total off the boards and is also scoring at a 12 point pace. Last year's scoring leader Fred Hare, he led the team with a 15 plus scoring average, has slipped to a 7 point game average and has come up with 13 rebounds. Last week's road victory over Wisconsin marked the first time Coach Cipriano has won a December road trip since he came to Nebraska three years ago. Free throw shooting, usual ly a weak part of the Husker offense, spelled the difference in the win over Oregon State. Nebraska hit 23 fielders com- lared to the Beavers 26 but made up the difference and a final 12 point margin from the charity stripe. The cagers return home Tuesday for a match with Texas.

Just South of Campus WE NEVER CLOSE We set out to ruin some ball bearings and failed successfully The Bell System has many small, automatic telephone offices around the country. The equipment in them could operate unattended for ten years or so, but for a problem. The many electric motors in those offices needed lubrication at least once a year. Heat from the motors dried up the bearing oils, thus entailing costly annual maintenance. To stamp out this problem, many tests ...... -t- D.ll TlnnUn wei e l,ui iuuuicu cu pen icicpiiune .''ST" Laboratories. Lubricant engi- ffi neer George H. Kitchen decided to do a basic experiment that would provide a motor with the worst possible conditions. He deliberately set v -,y out to ruin some ball bearings by smearing them with an icky guck called molybdenum disulfide (MoS2). Swock! This solid lubricant, used a certain way, actually increased the life expectancy of the ball bearings by a factor of ten! Now the motors can run t for at least a decade without lubrication. We've learned from our "failures." Our aim: Investigate everything. The only experiment that can really be said to "fail" is the one that is never tried.
