Hot-shooting Tigers invade Saturday
by WARREN OBR
Assistant Sports Editor
Two of the best shooting
clubs in the Big Eight will meet
in the Coliseum Saturday when
Missouri takes on Nebraska.
Nebraska will be trying to raise
its conference record over the
.500 level while Missouri will
try to maintain its runner-up
spot.
"They shoot awfully well,"
said Husker coach Joe Cipriano
in appraising the Tigers.
"That's probably the strongest
part of their game. Missouri has
also been running more and
they may try wearing us
down."
Meanwhile, Bengal coach,
Norm Stewart is worried about
Nebraska's size and strengeth.
"Against Nebraska, we'll have
trouble matching up with their
size," said Stewart. "Chuck
Jura has size, quickness, and
shooting ability. And with
Tom Bryan now eligible, they
have good depth, too.
The Tigers will counter
Nebraska's height with the
What yon should know about diamonds
tvhen you know it's for keeps
You've dreamed about your
diamond engagement ring a thou
sand times. But now that you
know it's for keeps, it's time to
stop dreaming and start learning
about diamonds and their value.
Because no two diamonds
are exactly alike, jewelers have
adopted exacting standards to de
termine the relative value of each
and every diamond in the world.
These standards include a dia
mond's size (carat weight), color,
cut and clarity.
COLOR: Fine white diamonds are
quite rare and valued accordingly.
Other shades in relative order of
their worth are: blue, yellow,
brown and black.
CUT: The cut of a diamond the
facets placed on it by a trained
cutter brings out the gem's fire
and brilliance. Anything less than
correct cut reduces beauty, bril
liance and value.
CLARITY: Determined by the ab
sence of small impurities. A per
fect diamond has no impurities
when examined under ten power
magnification by a trained eye.
CARAT: A diamond's size is
mear d in carats. As a diamond
increases in size, its price will
increase even more if the quality
remains constant. But larger dia
mond: of inferior quality may ac
tually be worth less than smaller,
cerfect diamonds.

second-leading scorer in the
conference, Henry Smith. The
6-8 Smith's 22.6 scoring
average trails only Colorado's
Cliff Meely in the Big Eight.
Oddly enough, the Tiger
captain never played high
school basketball. After a stint
with the Indiana job corps,
where Smith began cage play,
he attended Iowa Western
Junior College for two years
where Stewart spotted him for
Missouri.
Mike Peterson of the
Huskers will get the job of
handling Smith Saturday.
"We're going with an all
letterman lineup and we'll get
Peterson back in there," said
Cip. "Peterson will guard
Smith because he'll have a
better chance of checking
against him. Smith is a big
problem, though, because he
can play inside or out."

the Husker lineup for five
weeks with a broken bone in

Stewart takes charge off court, too
by JIM JOHNSTON
Sports Editor
Marvin Stewart was
concerned about the Nebraska
basketball team following the
loss to Kansas. "1 didn't think
we were playing ball like we're
capable of playing," Marv,
explained.
So the Cornhusker guard
called a special and private
team meeting Sunday
afternoon. Coaches weren't
invited.
"We just talked over our
problems," Stewart said,
"Some of the players felt we
were falling apart and they
couldn't understand it. I went
into the meeting with a serious
attitude. I want to win."
Stewart wasn't sure how
successful the meeting had

to go."
Nebraska will also have a
22-point scorer in guard Marv
Stewart, and he's a big problem
for the Tigers' Coach Stewart.
"Marv Stewart is one of the
fine shooting guards in the
league," said Coach Stewart.
"He has size, quickness, and is.
a fine outside shooter. . The
Huskers have fine personnel to
go along with him, too. Al
Nissen is a real good shooting
guard."
The Coliseum will also
hinder Missouri. "Nebraska is
one of the toughest places to
play for two reasons,'-'
continued Stewart. "First of all
because of the crowd situation,
and secondly because of
appearance. With the baskets
placed the way they are, the
court has a very long and
narrow appearance for the
players."
The Tigers, who've won six
of their last seven games, will
try to offset Stewart's
floormanship with 6-3 Greg
F laker and 6-0 soph Mike
Griffin. Although the two
been following the first half of
the Iowa State game Tuesday
night. Nebraska played one of
its worst halfs of the season.
"The first half there was no
results," Marv admitted, "But
the second half, well you
know, we started to move the
ball and came back from a
nine-point disadvantage."
The tact Nebraska started
moving the ball was evident.
Big men Chuck Jura and Leroy
Chalk were able to get open
inside and each contributed 15
points in the effort.

"Our whole offense is built
around getting the ball down
low and inside," Stewart said.
"If we work the ball around
and hit the inside man, then we
(the guards) can also get a
closer shot."
Sophomore guard Tom
Gregory agreed that the
meeting helped Nebraska to
solve some of its ball- moving
problems on the court. But he
also found it beneficial for
another reason.
"Marvin really did a good
job conducting the meeting,"
Gregory said. "He knows his
basketball. It makes you
respect him a little bit more
whenhe takes charge like that."
Stewart, although
concerned about the team first,
had an individual problem this
week. He connected on only
four of 16 shots from the field
Tuesday for his poorest
performance of the year.
I was just in a slump,'' Marv
said. "It's nothing to worry
about. It was no game to cut
out the clipping from the paper
and send home, but I'm sure
I'll snap out of it.
"You're not going to go

perfect games, you know. You
have to stink once in a while."
