Tigers trounce Husker cagers
COLUMBIA, No. -Nebraska's basketball season
ended on a sour note Saturday afternoon, as the
Comhuskers were defeated by Missouri 86-70 at
Hearnes Feldhouse in Columbia.
Although the Huskers dropped their 17th game of
tho year, they didn't go down without a fight a fist
fight, that is.
With 16:38 left in the game, sophomore Don
Jackson of Nebraska and Missouri ail-American center
John Brown, exchanged blows after Jackson scored a
turnaround jumper over Brown's outstretched arms.
The rjr;ef f;yht brought a quick exit from the game
for be t-'i piayers and put a damper on "John Brown
Day ". being held to honor the school's all-time
leading scorer.
Coach Norm Stewart's 12th-ranked Missouri team
jumped to a quick 10-0 lead, which accurately
forecast the outcome of the game, although Nebraska
was able to close the margin to 33-32 late in the first
half.
After taking a 43-36 halftime lead, the Tigers
broke open the game in the second half behind the
shotting of reserve Gary Link, who finished with a
career high of 21 points, and guards Mike Jeffries and
Al Eberhard, who finished with 18 and 17 points
respectively.
Coach Joe Cipriano's youthful Huskers were led in
scoring by freshman guard Ricky Marsh's 22 points,
sophomore Kent Reckewey's 12 and freshman Jerry
Fort's 10.
Headed for its second straight National Invitational
Tournament in New York next week, the Tigers used
a pressure defense against the young Nebraska team
forcing numerous Cornhusker turnovers.
Missouri upped its season record to 21-5 and 9-5 in
the Big Eight Conference, while the Huskers finished
4-10 in the league, with nine wins overall. The teams
combined for 41 turnovers and 40 fouls.
The game was the last of the season for Nebraska,
and also was the final game as Huskers for seniors Cal
Christline from Sterling and Tony Riehl of Louisville,
Ky.

Nebraska scored eight points in the
ninth NCAA Track and Field
Championships Saturday in Detroit to
finish in a fiv-way tie for eight place.
Coach Frank Sevigne's
Comhuskers, who won the conference
crown in Kansas City last week, were
tied for eighth by teams from Middle
Tennessee, Michigan, Tennessee and
Wisconsin Universities.
Husker Roger Chadwick gave
Nebraska its highest place in the meet,
when he finished second in the
880-yard run. Chadwick, who won the
Big Eight 880 title a week ago, posted
a 1:53 time, second to Ken Schappert
of Villanova who had a 1 :50.4.

Nebraska's two-mile quartet
followed winning Fordham, (7.31.5)
and second place Tennessee (7:31.6).

medley were Larry Gnapp (1 :54.1 half
mile), Dan Speck (3:01 .8
three-quarters mile), Lynn Hall

summer's Olympic games.
Rod Milburn of Southern
University, who won a gold medal at
the Munich games, won the 60-yard
high hurdles, tying the 6.9 second
record.
Dave Wottle, Olympic gold medalist
from Bowling Green University, won
the mile championship with a time of
4:03.4 in the final event of the meet.
Another Olympic gold medalist,
Gerald Tinker of Kent State, won the
60-yard dash in :06.0.
Kansas University, which finished
second to Nebraska in the Big Eight
Indoor Championships, also finished
second in the NCAA meet. The
Jayhawks scored 12 points, which tied
Kent State and Texas-El Paso, but
they were 6 points behind winning
Manhattan.
Two other Comhuskers competed
in open events but failed to score.

new memebers on four of the five advisory boards.
The College of Arts and Sciences, the College of
Agriculture, the College of Home Economics and
Teachers College will be affected. The College of
Business Administration holds its advisory board
election at another time.
Phil Lamb, president of the Agriculture Advisory
Board, said the major purpose for the board is
"providing student input into academic decisions at
the college level".
According to Lamb, activities of this years board
include providing student views in debate on LB149,
which calls for a separate NU College of Agriculture,
extending the hours of operation of the East Campus
calculating room and reviewing the curriculum of the
College of Agriculture.
"The major problem facing the board," said Lamb,
"is lack of student imput."
Robert Egbert, dean of Teachers College, said he
sees the advisory board as having three kinds of roles.
"We have asked our board for explicit advice. The
board has volunteered advice and, at our request, they
have served on special committees such as curriculum
and evaluation," he said.
According to Egbert, one of the board's problems
was communication.
"Communication between Teachers College's
teachers and students has not been as effective as it
could be," he said.
Melvin George, dean of the College of Arts and
Sciences said he sees the purpose of the advisory
board as "advising the dean's office as to problems
that students are worried about."
Hazel Anthony, dean of the College of Home
Economics, said the advisory board is "a great liaison
between faculty and students. I am very satisfied wtih
this year's board."
