Walseth Seeking Supporting Cast By DON FORSYTHE i One of a Series Cliff Meely is in a 'class by himself at Colorado and maybe even the Big Eight, but Colorado coach Sox Walseth is fully aware that it takes more than one super player to make a basketball team. 1 "We were a pretty good team last year and finished 7-7 in the Big Eight," reminds Walseth. The veteran CU coach couldn't come tip with the balance needed to supplement Meely's 20.9 per game production last season. This year could be a different story.

"We have 14 kids and there's not too much difference in a lot of them," Walseth says. The Buffs' appear to be set at three' positions with 6-7 junior Jim Creighton and 6-3 senior Dudley Mitchell returning as regulars. A pair of transfers, Steve Aaker and Larry McCoy, could make the difference. The Wheat Ridge prep products spent a year at Texas before deciding, to come back to Colorado for their collegiate careers. "They could be a factor," says Walseth.

Aaker, 6-5 forward, could help take the pressure off Meely up front. McCoy has a chance to move into the picture in the backcourt 1 "We have a number of possibilities," says Walseth. "We'll play our non-cpnference games to see just what we've Colorado Roster Player, Hometown Wt. Year Steve Aaker, Wheat Ridge, Colo. ,195 Jr.

By STEVE GUSS Last of a Series Young Bellevue College plays its first full year of big time basketball this season and coach Roger Nieveen feels with the more rugged schedule, improvement on a 13-10 mark may be difficult. "We should have our best team, however, this will be the first year the college plays all four-year institutions. Improvement of the team is probable, but the level of competition has, been increased," notes Nieveen, a 1965 Doane College graduate. All of Bellevue's players are freshmen and sophomores, with 6-2 Terry Cadweil and 6-2 John Howard.

Feature Races At Aqueduct I Found Gold 18.00 8.00 5.60 Shining Sword 8.40 4.20 Irurzun 3.00 Giblets 'n gravy for your Turkey Day1 menu: Now that the various all-star teams are being unveiled as the college football season draws to a close, it's time to make one short, but forceful, pitch for Bob Devaney as coach of the year. He leads the nation in winning percentage, but has never been accorded the honor of coach of the year. He's fully deserving of the accolade which is long overdue.

What do you want, volume or accuracy? Of the top 24 passers listed in this week's NCAA statistics (ranked by completions per game) there are none with completion averages over the .600 mark. Nebraska's Jerry Tagge (.630) and Van Brownson (.653) made fewer pitches pay off handsomely. Both Tagge (.599) and Brownson (.577) are well ahead of the Big Eight career accuracy mark of .545 owned by Oklahoma's Bob Warmack. But they're running short of the NCAA career mark of .631 set by Navy's Roger Staubach in 1962-64. The season accuracy record of .696 is owned by SMU's Don Meredith, who's now throwing his strikes at Howard Cosell on Monday nights.

Glenn, Mann Have Good Seasons Former Lincoln prep standouts Dave Mann and Joe Glenn have completed their college football careers. Glenn, the former Pius quarterback, became a split end this year and broke the season record for receiving yardage at South Dakota with 516 yards on 27 catches. Mann, who played at Northeast and McCook Junior College, was a regular defensive end for a highly-regarded Abilene Christian team. A former Louisiana resident who still has strong ties back home reports that LSU's visit to Notre Dame last week was the Tigers' first trip north of the Mason-Dixon line for a football game since 1924. LSU, incidentally, hasn't given up a touchdown on the ground in nine games this season as it has held opponents to a mere 49.6 yards rushing per game.

Here's hoping the Tigers maintain that record and wind up against Nebraska in the Orange Bowl. The Cornhuskers have the keys to unlock that rushing defense. The bowl games most likely to be; mismatches are the ones which remain to be Colorado over somebody in the Liberty Bowl and I Arizona State over somebody in the Peach Bowl. These teams have talent to burn.

(523), 2-1. Allen Big Hope For Miami Miami UP) Before the first shot was fired, the University of Miami basketball program was nearly gunned down. School trustees faced with mounting debts and no place for the Hurricanes to play decided they might as well junk the basketball program. Interested citizens and stirred up cagers led by Miami's first black player, Willie Allen, turned the tide and now the Hurricanes will not only play but have promises that a city referendum will be held regarding bonds to build a campus coliseum. The Hurricanes wfll join Oklahoma City, Colorado State and Nebraska in the first annual Cornhusker Classic in Lincoln Dec.

18-19. Miami has played at several sites during its 33-season history, none of them on the Coral Gables campus and seldom within 20 minutes driv-ing tfme. the Canes don't draw well and have lost, a bundle of money, even in the glory days with high-scoring Rick Barry. Allen, a muscular 6-6, 230-pound senior from Rockville, is the main hope of the Hurricanes. He averaged 17 points a game last winter and grabbed 320 rebounds.

Lionel Harris, a 28-point freshman shooter, moves up to the varsity and the 6-3 Washington, D.C., product should add punch to coach Ron Godfrey's attack. i The sleeper may be 6-7 Kevin O'Riordian, a transfer from Wichita State who sat out last season. As a prep star at Chicago Marist, Kevin averaged 25 a game and was named one of the nation's top 10 high school performers. It will take a minor miracle for the Hurricanes to break even this season, but Godfrey believes "the public's show that it wants basketball has fired these men up and I think we'll do better than we ever expected." Godfrey has. a giant in the wings to help Allen.

He's 7-footer David Kisker, a sophomore from St. Joseph, who carries a well-spread 225 pounds. Bob Spagnolo is back at guard, where he averaged 5.3 a year ago. He has big shoes to fill with the graduaton of Don Curnutt, who scored 2,000 points at Miami before winding up his career in 1969-70. Pro Scores!

Can you imagine what 1 it's going to be like when the Texas Division of the Continental Football League conducts it season April 1-June 27 next year? The Omaha Mustangs were a part of the league this year and must decide whether to get in or get out. Getting out sounds like a good idea. Randy Butts, one of the red-shirted rookies who could bid for playing time with the 1971 Cornhusker football team, missed the last couple of weeks' action with the Nebraska scout squad because of a bout with mononucleosis. It's expected he'll be healthy again by the time indoor track season rolls around. Nebraska's bumper crop of seven, players on the United Press International all-Big Eight team announced Wednesday is an exceptional haul, but not the best ever by the Cornhuskers.

Nine Nebraska players earned all-conference recognition from one or more off i sources in both 1965 and 1966. Kansas' John Riggins took Gale Sayers' name off the KU record book last week when he pushed his career rushing total to 2,706 yards. Sayers finished with 2,675. Look for Riggins, to go in the first round of the pro draft. Big, strong backs don't come along every day, OPEN DAILY 10-10, SUN.
