"Sr Poge 6 The Daily Nebraskan WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 21 1967 Gym In Back I ft is u 6' , !: i' I (c I- I The Cassius Clay Ernie Terrell round of fisticuffs Monday night seemed like a good chance to study the art of boxing coverage third or fourth hand. This writer has never been in nor seen a live, sanc tioned boxing match. He therefore claims no greater com prehension of the sport than anyone else who formulates his opinions through the radio reports and through tele vision's Wednesday Night Fights during the 1950's. But here are the comments heard, believed to have been heard and, in some cases, should have been heard during the 15-round decision that went to Clay: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the super-match, pitting World Boxing Association champion Ernie Terrell against World Religious Boxing Champion Muhammed AH." After assorted reactions and appropriate comments by Clay, the match was underway. "Clay lands a left, now a right . . . Terrell's left low er eyelid is puffed up . . . it's starting to puff closed now, but his trainers are working on it between rounds. . ." "Terrell's right eye is bleeding now . . . he looks like he came out of a butcher's shop . . . his face looks like he walked into a mixmaster. . ." "Now Clay's got him backed up near our microphone corner . . . Terrell's face ... if you'll pardon the expres sion again . . . looks like he walked into a mixmaster. . ." "WHOOPS . . . something just sprayed our table from the ring ... it looks like bio. . . excuse me I don't feel too welL . ." And then there was Ernie's big bid: "Terrell landed a left to the body . . . Clay's hurt. . . and now a left to the nose of Clay . . . he's HURT." "Now, folks don't get us wrong . . . Terrell's not reallv getting to Clay . . . another left to Clay's nose . . . HE'S HURT . . . CLAY'S HOLDING HIM OFF ... "But don't misunderstand, ladies and gentlemen. Clay's got him where he wants him . . . TERRELL LET LOOSE A HYAMAKER THAT JUST MISSED . . . that could have been the match." The best part of the match, to this writer, was not the "sport" of boxing, but the colorful description we get of a colorful event even if that color is usually blood red. KU Wins, 84-38 Nebraska Loses Big Eight Lead Stretch The University of Nebras ka cagers relinquished the Big Eight Conference lead to Kansas Tuesday night as the Huskers fell to them, 84-58. Trailing by as much as 34 points late in the second half, the Cornhuskers never mounted a real threat after the last third of the first period. An estimated 16.000 fans turned out at Lawrence to cheer a Jayhawk attack spearheaded by Roger Boh nenstiehl, who had 20 points. Three Cornhuskers h i t the double figures but barely. Nate Branch led with 11 points, while teammates Stuart Lantz and Roger Leitner had 10. Leitner's scoring came in the second half when he came off the bench to aid the ailing Huskers. Jo Jo White and Rod Franz each totaled 16 for the KU side. All but two of Franz's tallies came in the first period, after which he saw much of the game from die bench. Nebraska was plagued with poor shooting from the field and a leaning toward turnovers. The Cornhuskers started the game in the lead when Lantz hit a jump shoi and while the Huskers con trolled a series of rebounds. From there, NU built a 9-1 lead before Franz be came pesky by drilling two foul shots and then break ing downcourt for two field goals. rne Jaynawxs pulled up before the turn of the first 20-minute period and ran away with it from there. Nebraska was hitting only 26 per cent from the field at the half, while Kan sas was putting in 41 per cent. Nine turnovers also slowed down NU, as KU went in at the half with a 36-24 lead. After the intermission Kansas put the margin at 20 and then stretched it through the second half. In the last five minutes of play, while reserves from both benches were seeing action the Jayhawks pulled to an 80-46 divide be fore the Huskers could close it up slightly.

The Wildcats' coach, Bob Rector, is new this year, and caused Cornhusker coach Jake Geier to say he was uncertain what strength K-State would bring to Lin coln, although he added it should be more than last year. However, Coach Geier said, "All things con sidered, we expect to win." Looking ahead to the con ference meet, which will be held at the Coliseum March 17 and 18, Iowa State, one of the nation's best, is an apparent shoo-in winner. Coach Geier said he would not be sure until his team met more conference op ponents, but expected the Huskers to finish no lower than fourth in the meet next month. in the meet next month.

Since he's working his way through college, he doesn't hvs much time left to study. Maybe even less than you. That's .why Tom enrolled in our Reading Class. Tom admits that for eight weeks his schedule was worse than usual, his baseball was at stake. Worn in just had to wait! Now that the course Is over, Tom Is still no egg heador professor. Baseball's still his first love. But there is one difference Tom now reads 10 times faster. He finishes his work before it finishes him! And he's still eligible for the team. .Tom Hall Is not a mental freak, nor is he a natur ally fast reader. He learned this revolutionary technique of rapid reading at the Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics Institute. He is one of more than 250,000 graduates in the United States. Tou may not learn to read quite as fast as Tom Hall (and then again you might). But the nation ally known Reading Dynamics Institute guarantees that you'll at least triple your reading speed with good comprehension ... or receive a full tuition refund.

Mrs. Wood's curiosity caused ber to look for other exceptional readers, and over the next few years she found 50 poople who could read faster than f ,500 words per minute, with fine comprehension, outstanding recall and great read ing satisfaction. She was now sure it was possible to read faster than anyone bad thought, but the question of how was not yet answered. It took 8 years of foil and research, working with naturally fast readers before she began to find the answers. Eventually she developed a techniqut whereby the average student was able to learn to read 3 to 10 times faster. She taught ber method at the University of Utah for three years, refining it even more. Further studies were conducted at the Uni versity, of Delaware, and tha first reading Dy namics Institute was opened in Washington, 0. C. ia September, 1959. Since that time institutes have been opened In ST cities throughout the country, and national enrollment for the Bourse bas topped 250,000.

She said, "Skipping words Is dangerous, as yon don't know whether or not you bavo skipped a word which could change the whole meaning of tbe sentence. "You read five times faster," she pointed out, not by reading every fifth word, but by reading five times as many words in the same amount of time. Mrs. Wood emphasized that using her technique of rapid reading, every word on the page Is o jfed, Ton will' see a documented film that Includes actual Interviews with Washington's Congress, men who have taken the course.
