Scantlebury ignites to boom soomers Ji ( la 1 , by RANDY YORK Nebraska Sport Editor Guard Tom Scantlebury has wanted to explode offensively at Nebraska for almost three years. Coach Joe Cipriano hasn't really vetoed such ac tion, but he hasn't allowed its full development either. Cip admitted he preferred a longer fuse before Scantz really ignited. Chalk (19) and Gratopp (11) also paced Nebraska's 49-35 rebounding bulge. The Huskers' next assign ment is Saturday at Columbia against Missouri, which Mon day night was dumped at Kansas. PHOTO BY DON TREMAIN Tom Scantlebury can pass too . . . he shovels one through this Oklahoma crowd to Leroy Chalk, who gets easy, subsequent basket. ALL THIS came to an end Monday, however, when Scantlebury more or less, by mutual, non-verbal agreement was allowed all the one-on-one offensive action he wanted. Scantz responded with 22 sec ond half points, boosting Ne braska's still-alive Cornhuskers to a 79-66 Big Eight basketball win over Oklahoma. "I guess he (Cipriano) gave me the green light," Scantlebury said of his second half fireworks. "Anyway, I hit a few of my outside shots, and he didn't really object." The strong windup, combined with a 6-point first half, gave Scantlebury 28 points, ex ceeding his previous career high of 24 last year against Oklahoma. "THAT'S THE most I've gone one-on-one since I wds a freshman," Scantz noted. He was on target 10 of IS times from the field. "I think Scantlebury proved he was an All-Big Eight guard," Cipriano said of the conference's top backcourt scorer. Center Leroy Chalk and forward Bob Gratopp provided Get high. , .on skydiving by STEVE SINCLAIR A Mutant Sports Editor Students looking for a legal way to get high should consider skydiving, according to a univer sity student with 350 jumps. "Skydiving has almost a drug-like effect," Marv Helman said. "You get addicted to it. It gets to be pure pleasure and enjoyment after 10 to 20 jumps." 'It is so out of this world that there is no explanation," he added. Helman is supervising the skydiving course offered by the Nebraska Free University. The class begins March 4 at 7 p m. at the College of Business Ad ministration Auditorium, MANY PEOPLE shy away from skydiving because of their fear of danger, but Helman believes this is a misconcep tion. "If you have the right training and follow the regula tions, skydiving isn't any more dangerous than skiing or foot ball," Helman said. In the 10 years that the Lin coln Sport Parachute Club has been in operation there have been only two serious injuries, Helman said, a broken ankle and a broken leg. This amounts to one Injury for every 5,000 jumps. "One year, statistics showed that there were more people killed in car accidents on their way to the airport, than were killed skydiving," Helman noted. Another misconception about skydiving is that it's a man's sport. Last year 15 girls made jumps after graduating from the free university class. "A GIRL will keep her cool before jumping as good as a guy," Helman said, but girls don't stick with the sport as long as guys do." Helman taught WACS how to sky dive when he was in the service. He also was a member of the 10th Special Forces Free Fall Exhibition team In Germany. In addition to skydiving, Helman has skied the toughest slopes in Austria, and is a scuba diving instructor. He is majoring in electrical engineering. Helman admits that students NFU FREI SKYDIVING CI ASSES (Frtt Jumps to to Stwtltnft) SECTION 1 SECTION J MARCH 4 7 P.M. MARCH S 7 P.M.

"The fear is not of the jump Itself," he said, "people get scared that they are going to chicken out." . Helman said he expects 200 students in this semester's class, but he has the capacity to teacn over ouu students. THE CLASS will be divided Into two sections and will meet for six weeks. The top five students "In the class will get a free mem bership in the Lincoln Sport raracnute Club, and six free jumps, Helman said. Other top students will get one free jump ana reaucea rates from the club. There is only one university in me country which offers a credit course in skydiving, ac cording to Helman. Otherwise, the free university course is the only one of it's kind. A man went looking for America !
