High-Fly
Stuart Lantz is a h i g h
flying Pennsylvanian with
a lot of self-confidence and
talent, but not obnoxious
enough to be called a jock.
In fact, the Husker bas
ketball player has enough
Class about him to be called
"probably the finest ever
to wear the scarlet and
cream for the University of
Nebraska." Veteran sports
caster Bob Zenner has called
him just that several times
and Bob is no newcomer in
the sports watching busi
ness. Stu's main ambiton for
the near future is to play
pro basketball,and he's also
got enough class and talent
(not especially in that or
der) to accomplish that goal.
"I want very much to
play pro ball," Stu says, "I
hope to get a chance."

Away From Smith . . .
For the second straight
year, an 11th hour spurt has
taken the Big Eight Con
ference's individual scoring
title away from an appar
ent winner.
This year, it was Okla
homa's Don Sidle, a junior,
who pulled off the last-week
double scoring 42 and 27 his
last two times out to beat
Iowa State's Don Smith by
two points, 349 to 347, and
become the first Oklaho
man to win the league's
point-producing champion
ship since Paul Courty did
it in 1948.
Last Year
It was last year that Colo
rado's Chuck Gardner over
took Kansas' Walter Wes
ley on the final night for
the scoring title. Sidle not
only duplicated Gardner's
comeback routine, but he
almost equalled the Colo
rado center's versatility
record.
Sidle not only won the
scoring bauble, but he also
finished first in field goal
percentage with a 56 mark,
hitting 118 of 211 of his
tries, second in rebounding
with an average of 10.6 per
game, and seventh in free
throw accuracy witn a
Lamsdon Wins In Consolation Finals
Nebraska's Jerry Lang
don won the consolation fi
nals in the Big Eight wrest
ling championships in the
123-pound division to be the
only Husker to win his fi
nal match.
The Huskers finished with
13 team points, or sixth of
a seven-team field.
OU Champ
Oklahoma won the team
championship with 79 points.
Iowa State was second with
69 and Oklahoma was third
with 66.
Big Upset
The big upset of the meet
came when OU's 225-pound
middle - guard, Granville
Ligglns outpointed previous
ly unbeaten Ted Tuinstra of
Iowa State. Tuinstra Is a
286-pound heaveyweight.

Late Collapse
Despite suffering through
a nightmarishly frustrating
late-season collapse with
his teammates, Stu never
theless took a big step
toward that pro career in
the Huskers' loss to Kansas.
Having been shut down
twice before in appearances
opposite Jayhawk phe
nomenon Jo Jo White, Stu
came through with a game
leading 21 points, proving
even as cold and efficient
a machine as tire Kansas
defense could not unhinge
him.
Stu doesn't have any il
lusions about that Kansas
tills
mark over 74 per cent. Last bounding and shooting, and
year, Gardner was first in fourth in free throw per
scoring, second in both re- centage.

over his three years there.
Incidentally, S t u jumped
center on that team, but
that was the only set play
they had, just "free-lancing"
their way to two state titles,

type of play. In fact, I guess

His big last pair, banging
home 24 of 38 attempts, put
him past Nebraska's Stuart
Lantz, another junior, in the
field goal accuracy battle.
Lantz finished the year with
55 per cent showing from
his guard spot. He and Si
dle were the only two in the
league ranked in all four
individual categories. Lantz
was third in scoring (20.1),
sixth in rebounding f8,l),
and fourth in free throw ac
curacy (.787).
Sidle Deprives
By overtaking Smith on
the final night of the sea
son Smith could only
stand by and watch since
the Cyclones finished ear
lier in the week Sidle
not only deprived the Big
Iowa State junior of the
scoring championship, but
he also kept him from be
coming the first since Wilt
Chamberlain of Kansas to
win both the scoring and
rebounding titles the same
year.
Smith did win his second
straight rebounding cham
pionship, finishing with 196
in the 14 league games for
a 14.0 average. This put
him in position to become
the first since Kansas' Bill
Bridges (1959-60-61) to win
three individual titles in a

sharpshooting player
like Stu get to the pride of

champion for all games last

NU Soccer Club's Utah Tour
Scheduled To Start March 26
By Terry Grasmiek
Assistant Sports Editor
The efforts of Tim Rick
ard will come to a climax
March 26 when the Univer
sity Soccer Club plays its
first game.
Rickard, organizer, pres
ident and coach, of t h e
squad, which has a 50
member club list, an
nounced the team's first
competition will come via
a spring vacation tour in
Utah.
The tour will consist of
four or five games in five
days against school and
town teams in Utah.
"Very Lucky"
"We're very lucky in
having Utah being so kind
to us" Rickard said.
Rickard's team will be
accomodated free by their
various opponents during
their tour. Utah has an en
thusiastic statewide soccer
program.
"We may be playing one
game in the Utah State
football stadium which is
marked for soccer play
after the football season,"
commented Rickard.
Fifteen boys will be mak
ing the trip west and is fi
nancially on his own. Rick
ard noted, "The University
athletic department just
isn't interested in soccer."
Foreign Students
The team is composed
mainly of foreign students
in whose countries soccer
is prominent. Team stars

insists its the first game
ver he's been kicked out
ofV.
Though he does always
think good thoughts, Stu
seems to have one pet
peeve: the rumor (which
everyone has heard t least
thirty times and nodded to
knowingly) stating that all
jocks get special privileges
in the classroom.
'"That's the biggest lie I've
ver heard," he says. "I
wish it would happen to me,
but it Tiever does. Some
people think its easy (being
an athlete and a student at
the same time); that the
profs give us a break. It's
just not true."
It would be unfair to redi
Nebraska weather entirely
for Stu's stopover here,
though; some of the credit
from Turkey and B o d o
Fritzden, starting goalie for
Utah State the past three
years.
Rickard also cited as
promising two Americans
who had never k i c k e d a
soccer ball competively till
the USC was formed last
fall. Steve Ham is a Sidney,
Nebr,, native while Craig
Neely Is a California boy.
Rickard felt, "They
are among our best players
now because they've been
training hard. Training for
the USC involves team
practice during the week.
Trip Preparation
This weekend, to prepare
for their road trip, the team
will practice Saturday and
