UJL gymnasts in double dual win
uy td McCIymont
The Nebraska men and women's gymnastic teams
scored a double dual win Saturday afternoon before 2,133
people at the Bob Devaney Sports Center.
The Southern Illinois Salukis fell to the number one
rated Nebraska men 217.70 to 213.40, and the NU wo
men defeated Colorado 136.40 to 129.85.
Injuries and sickness hampered several top performers,
and a missed airplane connection left one team coach
less.
Bill Meade, SIU head coach, was forced to travel by
commercial airlines rather than the school's private plane
because the plane seated only nine-just enough
for the team. Somewhere in the shuffle at the airport
Meade boarded a 'plane destined for San Francisco. So
instead of spending the afternoon in Lincoln, Meade flew
all the way to California.
Injuries hamper
, That was not the only problem for the seventh rated
Salukis. Their top all-arounder Kevin Mays was lost to a
knee injury and another top performer, Rick Adams, was
slowed with a knee dislocation. N
The Huskers were also beset with injuries but head
coach Francis Allen was satisfied with his team's
performances
We had an excellent score today considering the com
petition, and the fact'we were without (Steve) Elliott and
(Richard) Brindisi," Allen said.
Elliott and Brindisi are out with injuries.
Jim Hartung led the Huskers again with the best all
around with a score of 55.60. Hartung arrived in Lincoln
Saturday morning after competing Friday night in Baton.
Rouge, La. at the Mardi Gras Invitational where he took
second place in the all-around.
High bar tops
Nebraska was also aided by Kirk Fridrich and Mark
Williams who turned in fine performances and scores, Al
len said. Fridrich won his specialty, the high bar, with a
score of 9JS0.
As far as the high bar goes this was my best meet,"
Fridrich said. T was first in scoring of the nonall
arounders, but I still have a little ways to go."
Hie Nebraska team is currently ranked number one in
the nation in the high bar event.
Williams finished second to Hartung in the all-around
with a 54.35 score, and Allen credited Williams for his
overall improvement.
In the women's dual Nebraska turned out their best
point total of the season, 136.40, to easily dispose of
Colorado5
The Buffaloes however were without- the services of
1976 Olympian Debbie Wilcox and their second top
athlett .Louisc Hunt, both of whom -were out with the
flu.
"Without Debbie we're just an average team," Colo
rado coach-Dan Garicak said. "We don't have the strength
we need without her."
The top all-around score for the day went to
Nebraska's Peggy Uddick with a 34J95 score. UNL coach
Judy Schalk had praise for Uddick's performance.
"This is the second consecutive meet Peggy has won
the all-around," Schalk said. "On the balance beam she
had a difficult routine and hit the whole thing."
Uddick was the individual winner in the balance beam
as well as in the vault. The only other event winner for
UNL was Patty Carmichael in the floor exercise. Colo
rado's Kim Opler took first place in the remaining event,
the uneven bars.
Next week's opponent for the women as well as the
men in Louisiana State, whom Schalk considers to be the
top team to face the Lady Huskers this year. After that
dual the women will compete in the regional meet.
"This meet (Colorado) set us just dandy for the
regionals and nationals," Schalk said. She said the top
competitors will be Southwest Missouri State and Grand
view College in their regionals.
The men's and women's dual meet with LSU next
Friday will begin at 7:30 in the Bob Devaney Sports
Center.

Forum to deal with unrest in Iran
An expert on the Islam religion and a U.S. foreign
policy developer will be one of the featured speakers
Tuesday night in a public forum, "The People and the
Shah: The Source of Unrest in Iran."
The forum, second in a series presented by UNL In
ternational Educational Services, will run from 6:45 to
10 p.m. The program will begin with films on Middle
Eastern art and the Islamic culture.
Dr. Hamid Algar, professor of Near Eastern Studies at
the University of California at Berkeley, will speak on the
role of Islam in the lives of Iranians. Algar is a British con
vert to the Islamic religion and has traveled extensively
in Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, Lebanon and Jordan.
According to Suzy Prenger, International Educational
Services research assistant, Algar conferred with Iranian
leader Khomeini before the ayatollah's return to Iran
from Paris. Algar recently appeared on the MacNeill
Lehrer Report.
The second speaker, Dr. Robert Irani, is an instructor
from Iran who teaches at the Strategic Studies Institute of
the U.S. Army War College. He does research on the de
velopment of foreign policy toward Iran, according to
jPrenger. She said he will present the history of such poli
cies and the reasons behind them.
'This is not a debate, but an educational forum,"
Prenger said, although there will be public discussion at
8:45 pjn.
David Champagne, director of International Studies
and Programs at UNO, will serve as moderator, to analyze
the presentations and handle audience questions and com
ments. The forum will be held in the Student Union
Centennial Room, as will be another talk by Algar at 1
pjn. Wednesday. It is entitled "The Future of Iran" and
will be sponsored by the UPC Talks and Topics and Hu
man Potentials Committee.
Mary Schanbacher of Talks and Topics said she hopes
more students will be able to attend the Wednesday
follow-up, which will focus on the future of Khomeini
and the Muslim state in Iran.
"We hope a lot of questions will be raised," Schan
bacher said.
The forum, made possible by a grant from the Nebras
ka Committee for the Humanities, "will help us to under
stand the situation (in Iran) a little better," according
to Prenger. -
