Those always fascinating bat
ting averages to be found in an
other column on this page show
that just two men who play reg
ularly for the Huskers are hitting
over .300. Tom Moates and Dow
Wilson, the prides of Red Oak and
Dow City, Iowa respectively, are
the two, Moates having 349, and
Wilson but three points behind.
Wilson has more hits than Moates,
but has been at the plate more
than Tom.
Pitcher Rube "Diz" Denning,
has five hits in the sixteen times
he's been at bat for a .313 average,
for the only other .300 mark on the
team. Centerfielder Del Harris is
not far away, though, with a .291.
Bernie Le Master, leadoff man
for the Huskers, has but a .220
average, but he's leading the team
In runs, the hustling shortstop
having crossed the plate eleven
times, once when he stole home
against Iowa State.
Team average of the Huskers
is a .241, which was veddy veddy
much lower than that before the
boys got 32 hits in two games
against Iowa State.
That no-hitter the team en
countered against St. Mary's, and
a three-hitter dealt out by Fred
Eyestone of Kansas State had
pulled the team mark down. '
Kansas's decisive victory over
Nebraska's golf team seems to
indicate that the Jayhawks will
have to be considered seriously in
the conference meet this week
end. The K. U. team, which usually
plays on sand greens, was right
at home on the grass greens at the
Country Club Monday as Mort
Jones got a 37-25 for a par 72,
Dean Bussler and Bob Ritchie had
74's, and Jack Nessley had 73
which scores aren't at all bad for
the Jayhawks, playing in Lincoln
the first time this year.

be played, is the toughest in the
country. .. .we shall see what we

Iowa Staters pick Ed Wibbels
to break Big Six discus record

possibility of a new discus iccord
looms when Nebraska's Edsel
Wibbels tosses the platter in the

inches, which was set by Thorn
hill of Kansas in 1930. Wibbels
