Basketball Turnout Near 2,300 . .
Intramural Policy:

The intramural sports
department is reeling un

a heavy turnout of male
participants.
A total of 584 games be
tween 144 teams (which
means some 2,300 men) ex
plains the statistical com
plications that face Joel
Meier, intramural sports
director, in operating the
men's basketball program

Meier administrates his
office under the philosophy
that playing is more impor
tant than winning.
Because of this, Meier
uses a round robin system
of league play and a double
elimination policy in the
basketball program in or
der to allow the maximum
of participation.
"Competition is most de
sirable in intramurals, not
just determining the best
team," Meier noted.

Cutting back would mean
such alternatives as only
allowing the top two teams

Big Eight Mat Meets
Show Nation's Best
If you want a good pre
view of the top teams in
the national college wres
tling tournament, catch the
Big Eight meet at Okla
homa this weekend.
Chances are that the fin
ish at the conference tour
nament at Norman will
prove some of the best ma
terial beaded for the na
tionals, March 23-25, at
Kent State.
In 1966, for example, Ok
lahoma State, Oklahoma
and Iowa State were one-two-three
in the Big Eight
meet. At nationals, Okla
homa State was again the
winner and Iowa State dis
placed Oklahoma for the
runner-up spot.
Seeks Seventh
Oklahoma" State is after
its seventh straight Big
Eight wrestling champion
ship this year, but this is
not the longest winning
skein in tire conference's
history for the sport. Okla
homa rolled to eight
straight, beginning in 1950.
Iowa State ended that
string in 1958.
In the 33 years of the
wrestling championships,
Oklahoma has won 16 of the
team trophies, while Okla
homa State has seven and
Iowa State six. Kansas
State has won three times
and Nebraska once.
Strong Argument
Oklahoma has some
strong arguments to use
against the Cowboys on
paper, at least. The Soon
ers have defeated both Ok
lahoma State and Iowa
State in duals this year,
and Oklahoma may be
stronger in being able to
field a full team.
Last season, when
O-State won with a 97-92
margin over Oklahoma,
Sooner coach Tommy Ev
ans found himself one short
of the 11-man contingent.
"We didn't even have a
115-pounder last yea r,"
Evans said, "and that cost
us seven or eight points
alone."
Returning Scorers
Oklahoma State returns
wrestlers who scored 46
points in the 1966 confer
ence meet. Oklahoma has
39 points back, followed by
Iowa State 38, Colorado 20,
Nebraska 9, Kansas State 7
and Missouri 4.
Of these returning scor
ers, five are conference
champions. Two of the
champs belong to Okla
homa State, two to Okla
homa and the other to Iowa
State.
Sooner Bryan Rice, 15-1
for the season in the 123
pound division, has deci
sions over Tom Green of
Oklahoma State, Gary Wall
man of Iowa State and Dell
Rhodes of Colorado.
OSU's Davis
Oklahoma State's Gene
Davis, Big Eight and NCAA
137 champion last season,
is wrestling undefeated in
145 (64)) and 152 (54)).
Cowboy Jim Rogers, the
145 winner in the Big Eight
last season, has moved up
to the 152 division, where
he is 5-2. One of his losses
came to Oklahoma's Wayne
Wells, the defending m
Big Eight titlist.

Wells stands at 15-1 for
the campaign.
Vic Marcuccl
Iowa State's Vic Marcuc
cl, first in the conference
and second in the NCAA in
160 for 1966, is 15-2 in the
167 division, his only Big
.Eight loss coming to Roger
Mickish of Oklahoma.
Only the Oklahoma pair,
Rice and Wells, appear to
be going back to the
weights in which they won
last year.
Oklahoma Strong
Oklahoma's Evans thinks
he has four strong title con
tenders and two other pos
sibilities. He lists Rice,
Dickie Haxel at 137, Wells
and Roger Mickish at 167
as Oklahoma's ringleaders
and also tabs Cleo McGlory
at 160 and Granville Lig
gins at heavyweight as pos
sible champs.
Wells must contend in
the tournament's strongest
weight. In addition to Rog
ers, Iowa State's Dale
Bahr, 1966 NCAA runnerup
at 145, and Colorado's Con
ard Metcalf, owner of a
10-3 record, are entered.
OSU Favorites
Oklahoma State favorites
appear to be Davis at 145
and Fred Fozzard at 177
with Jerry Stone at 160 and
heavyweight Bruce Wil
helm also excellent pros
pects. Iowa State contenders
are Bahr at 152, unbeaten
Reg Wicks at 160, Marcucci
177, Don Buzzard at 191 and
unbeaten Ted Tuinstra at
heavyweight.
Colorado, ' with potential
winners Dell Rhodes at 115,
Jim Hanson at 130 and Bob
Justice at 177, is given the
best chance for fourth, but
does not have tire balance
to penetrate the top three.
115 Class
Colorado's Dell Rhodes
looks strong in the 115
class.
Last year's third place
winner at 115, Rhodes will
be coming back down to

"Dell is the best leadoff
man I've ever had," says
Buff coach Linn Long, "be
cause he wrestles so ag
gressively for the full
match. We always know
that he will establish a good
tempo."
Hanson Strong
At 130, Jim . Hanson of
Colorado looks strongest,
with an unblemished sea
son record of 13-0. He was
third in the weight in the
1965 Big Eight meet.
Hanson's victories in
clude an 8-1 decision over
Nebraska's Jerry Langdon.
Oklahoma's Dave Mc
Guire, 11-5-1 for the year,
is also a strong bidder at
the 130 spot. He lost an 8-3
decision to Hanson in a
dual this season.
Sam's Good
Sam Al-Karaghouli of Ok
lahoma stands 12-4-1 in the
137 class, while CU's Pete
Nord is 5-3-1 and 2-0 at 145.
Fourth-place finisher in
the Big Eight meet last
year is returnee Reg Wicks
of Iowa State. Wicks has 16
victories, one loss and two
tied at 160 and a lone win
at 167. ,
Roger Mickish of Okla
homa stands 16-1 in the 167
divisions and was third in
the Big Eight 177 last sea
son and second in the
NCAA 167.
This year's 177 has two
competitors with strong
records: Fred Fozzard,
OSU and Bob Justice, CU.
Fozzard is undefeated with
eight wins and two ties and
Justice is 9-1-1.
Leading the heavyweight
ranks is Ted Tuinstra, Iowa
State. Tuinstra is 12-0-1
this season.
Year's Bests
In this year's bests, the
quickest pin of the season
was recorded by massive
heavyweight Ted Tuinstra,
a 6-6 by 283-pounder, who
set a new Cyclone record
with an 11-second workout.
Previously, the record at
Iowa State for a quick pin
was 16 seconds and held
jointly by Tuinstra and
Tom Peckham, last year's
national 177 pound cham
pion. Yell Squad
