The Dally Nebraskan
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1968
Re Marks

Sports Editor
Nebraska fans may receive answers to three ques
tions Oils weekened after the freshman-varsity basketball
g&ma and the Husker-Oklahoma football finale at
Norman.
- Can varsity basketball coach Joe Cipriano mold a
winning team without seniors? Is freshman Chuck Jura
the answer to Nebraska's height problem? Will the
Husker footballers be traveling to either El Paso, Tex.,
or Memphis, Tenn., within the next four weeks?
1l
NEBRASKA'S basketball team may have more
speed, height and rebounding strength than in past years,
but Cipriano will be pressed to discover replacements
for graduated Tom Bacck and Stuart Lantz, Nebraska's
all-time leading scorers who accounted for almost half
of last year's scoring.
With no seniors, the cagers must develop rapidly,
and their first chance will come Friday at 7:35 p.m.
in the Coliseum against what my be NU's finest freshmen
contingent.
- Coach Bill Harrell's frosh led by 6' 10" forward
Jura, a high school Ail-American at Schuyler, may not
win, but they certainly will give Cip's crew a closer
game than last year's 98-67count
I JURA, WHO set a Nebraska high school tournament
record last March with 109 points in three games, comes
to NU with more publicity and wooing than any other
freshman basketball star in the last five years.
. We aren't saying he will be the Husker's answer
to Iowa State's former Ail-American Don Smith or
UCLA's Lew Alcindor. But Friday's game will provide
him and his competent mates a chance to compete
with top caliber players.
- It should be interesting to watch the varsity's adjust
ment, to a 6 10" opponent. Can this almost seven-footer
react well enough to give Nebraskans hope he will
be the tall man NU needs?
Apparently few think the game will be interesting.
Judging by a report from the Nebraska Athletic Ticket
Office. Only 950 All-Sports Tickets have been sold to
University students as of Thursday afternoon.
WE HAVENT hit on many predictions this semester,
but can predict safely without equivocation, that $5.25
couldn't be spent for a better item than an All-Sports
Ticket.
Your tickets honored at all home basketball, wrestl
ing, swimming, gymnastics, indoor and outdoor track,
baseball and other activities so the actual cost per
event is lowered to about 25 cents.
While your All-Sports Ticket will help you in Lincoln,
a Nebraska victory at Norman Saturday might aid your
travel experiences if you follow the Huskers to either
Memphis or El Paso.
RUMBLINGS from allegedly informed sources feel
a Husker win over the Sooners in the season finale
would earn Nebraska a bid from Memphis' Liberty Bowl
or El Paso's Sun Bowl.
.Although neither bowl is as prestigous as the big
four Jan. 1 affairs, both would offer attractive opponents
Mississippi in the Liberty Bowl and Auburn in the
Sun BowL
However, Nebraska still must defeat a team we
consider stronger than either of thosa two Southern
representatives.
THE SOONERS have the Big Eight's best halfback
Steve Owens, rbrt leads the league i- Jrin? with
a fantastic 90 points, rushing with ?5 fm per
game.
Coach Chuck Fairbanks also has the league's leading
pass receiver Eddie Hinton, an explosive two-way
performer who is the league's tandem offense runner-up
and quarterback Bob Warmack.
We dont want to dispel any early celebrators, but
e look for NU to drop its fourth game this year
at Owen Field where Husker Coach Bob Devaney has
never emerged victorious in three tries.
! NEBRASKA offensive guard Joe Armstrong and
defensive linebacker . Ken Geddes and back Dana
Stephenson have been named to the Associated Press'
first all-conference team.
' Offensive halfback Joe Orduna and defensive back
Bob Best were picked for the AP's second team. Paul
Rogers was chosen as a kicking specialist.
LAST WORsJ Intramural managers are requested
to submit their nominations for our all-star flag football
team early next week so we can announce our selections
after Thanksgiving vacation.
Big 8 notes, quotes
"I've never seen coach Bob
Devaney the way he was last
weekend," said Joe Orduna,
Husker halfback, after
Nebraska's 22-6 win over
Colorado. "You just couldn't
live with him."
"We knew why he was that
way, and we deserved it after
the way we played last week
(in a 12-0 Homecoming loss to
Kansas State). "We let him
down, and we knew it This
week we felt we had tc make
it up to him, and we really
wanted to play well."
Nebraska ss "helped" in
its winning effort against
Colorado ty sniffs of oxygen
each time a Husker player
trotted off the field in the
high, frosty altitude.
"I BELIEVE we are a bet
ter offensive team at this
time than we were at this
time last year," said
Oklahoma Coach Chuck
Fairbanks. "Our defensive
team is making tremendous
strides. I don't know anyway
to make a defensive com
parison." " Q u a r terback Bobby
Warmack played and called a
great game,'
lauded
Fairbanks after the Missouri
win. "lie was like having
another coach on the field
he called a great game."
WITH THE acceptance of a
bid to play in tfc Gator Bow!
in Jacksonville, Fla., every
player Missouri Coach Dan
Devine has coached in his 11
years at Missouri with the
exception of the seniors he
fcshciited when he took over in
1233 has been associated
with a bowl team, ,
"Oklahoma is better of
fensively and defensively,"
Devine said when asked to
compare this Sooner team
with last pear's Oklahoma
Orange Bowl champions.
"But the real difference in the
Oklahoma team from most
we've met is their quickness
we've been talking about
that all week, but that's about
all the good it did us."
"We saw a real lesson in
ball control today," Devine
said after Missouri's 28-14 loss
last Saturday -to Oklahoma
"That is the secret of any
game. If we're going to play
defense like we played today,
we're going to have to score
more. But the Sooners had
other ideas about that, too."
"STEVE OWENS is the
best back I have ever seen,"
said Missouri's Carl Garber,
defensive guard, "Hell come
one way and then cut back,
but he didn't do this all the
time I'd say about 50 per
cent of the time. You never
know what to expect."
He added that he was just
out-finessed by Owens,
Oklahoma's running back who
is also the Big Eight's leading
scorer and rusher.
"IOWA STATE plays foot
ball the way it should be
played," says Oklahoma
State's Coach Phil Cuter-4. "I
mean tooth and toenail I ad
mire that." ,
The biggest factor of
coaching, according to
Cutchin is, hopefully, having
contributed to athletes
becoming better citizens. "I
don't believe I knew that
when I went into coaching, he
adds. j

Foiled jinx or Norman victory final game hope of 12 seniors
Nine offensive and three
defensive Husker football
seniors will make their final
appearances in Nebraska
uniforms Saturday afternoon
against Oklahoma at Norman.

and Ed Hansen.
DEPENDING ON the out
come of this season's finale-
against the Sooners at Owen
Field, the dozen will either
own a 22-9; 21-10 or 21-9-1
record for three years of
varsity football. .
As sophomores the players
helped the Huskers compile a
9-1 regular season record for
a fourth straight league
championship and the team
played in the Sugar Bowl
where it bowed 34-7 to the
Alabama Crimson Tide. While
losing only a 10-9 match at
Norman to Oklahoma during
the regular season, Nebraska

outscored its foes 323-118.
AS JUNIORS, last fall, the
team slipped to 64 and failed
to go to a post-season bowl
game for the first time since
Coach Bob Devaney came to
Lincoln. But the squad led the
nation's colleges in total
defense.
This year the squad ranks
6-3 going into Norman where
Devaney has never beaten
Oklahoma. Will the 12 senior's
careers end successfully?

Report
suggests new
intramural facilities
Editor's Note This is the
second of a three-part series
on future University physical
education and intramural
field projects.
by Mark Gordon
Sports Editor
The University's physical
education and intramural ac
tivities of the near future
should be held in two large
open fields on city campus, a
Houston planning firm has
recommended to the
University.
In analyzing the
University's' future needs, a
land use study published in
September by C a u d i 1 1 ,
Rowlett and Scott suggested
the two areas be located in
the central and in the
southeast parts of city cam
pus. The central area would
be located btween 14th and
16th Streets from north of
Vine Street to X Street. The
southeast field would stretch
from Vine to S Streets and
from 17th to 20th Streets.
THE CENTRAL area would
contain 10 football fields, nine
softball fields, 13 tennis courts
and 6 basketball-volleyball
courts, the Texas planning
group said. The southeast
area would have 10 football
fields, eight Softball
duamonds, 14 tennie courts
and seven basketball-volleyball
courts.
A nine-hole golf course and
limited physical education
fields will comprise the
recreational facilities on east
campus, the firm saM.
The firm added that in
formal recreational facilities
should be decentralized and
located near residence halls.
The group made the
following summary of pro
posed space requirements for
the physical education, in
tramural and informal
recreation space for an enroll
ment of 25,000:
Although the University
cannot acquire land needed
for those projects and begin
actual construction for
least 10 yards. University
Business Manager Car
Donaldson said a temporary
area will be ready by next
September.

Conference queen
to be selected
The Big Eight's Queen, se

homecoming queens, will be
announced this weekend dur
ing activities at the nation-ally-televiesd
Nebraska-Oklahoma
football at Norman.
The Big Eight's Queen will
join queens from 10 other
major collegiate athletic con
ferences in competition for the
title or queen of collegiate
football.
Among the Big Eight queens
to be presented during half-
time will be Nebraska's Crick

THE TEMPORARY area to
be used for at least four
years, will have a soccer
field, several intramural
flag football fields and a
band practice field, he said.
The area is located behind
Abel Hall on Vine Street.
Donaldson said the tem
porary area would eventually
be the site of another
dormitory but when the dorm
is completed, the two central
recreation areas should have
been acquired and the two
main intramural and physical
educaton fields will be com
pleted. In breaking down each ac
tivity's programmed needs,
the plans call for 26 football
facilities, 20 softball
diamonds, 40 tennis courts, 10
residence hall parks, 12
archery ranges and 33 multi
purpose courts.
THE FOOTBALL fields,
with overlapping usage for
softball, soccer, hockey and
lacrosse, win measure 165 by
240 feet with & 45-foot buffer
between fields. The use of the
lighted north-4outh fields
would be rotated so that each
area would be allotted one
day per week without heavy
usage.
The firm recommends 20,
225 foot by 225, foot softball
fields facing either northeast
or southeast and overlapping
the perimeter of the football
fields. By proper location and
adjustment of light fixtures
approximately 10 softball
fields can use the same
lighting, the plan said.
RESIDENCE PARKS, used
for pitching nontihoes and
with putting gieens, bad
mitton and basketball, should
be lighted and away from
major pedestrian and vehicle
traffic. Major shade flow Ting
ana evergreen trees shouid be
included in the park.
Twelve arcnery ranges,
facing either northeast or
southeast, with benches and
drinking fountains should be
built on campus, the firm
said. The 180 by 300 foot
ranges should include a 30
foot buffer zone on all sides.
The Texas group also
recommends 13 multi-purpose
outdoor courts that primarily
would be used for basketbai
and volleyball. But can also
be used for informal recrea
tion activities such as bad
mitton roller skating, ice
hockey, dancing, shuffleboard
and tennis.
The permanently-lighted
areas would be 50 by 84 feet
with 10-foot buffer areas on
all sides and permanent
benches and drinking foun
tains. N ext Opinions of ad
ministration officials.

Nebraska Basketball Coach
Joe Cipriano sends his varsity
cagers against Coach Bill
Harrell's freshmen players in
the annual freshmen-varsity
basketball season opener at
7:35 p.m. Friday at the Col
iseum. With one of the tallest
freshman squads in recent
years, Harrell, in his first
game as freshman coach
after serving last season as a
varsity assistant, aims to
avenge last year's 98-67 vars
ity win.
CIPRIANO'S VARSITY,
which finished third in the Big
bight and 15-10 overall, last
winter, hopes to combat a
lack of experience with better
rebounding and increased
speed. But Nebraska must find
replacements for graduated
Tom Baack and Stuart Lantz',
Nebraska's all-time leading
scorers who supplied almost
half of last year's scoring.
All-Sports Tickets, which
may be obtained for $5.25 at
the Coliseum Ticket Office all
day Friday, will be honord for
admission at the basketball
opener jpriaay night, ac
cording to Athletic Ticket
Manager Jim Pittenger.
Pittenger added that adult
prices are $1 with children

cents. One child under 12 will
be admitted free with each
paid adult ticket.
