Following Is an interesting, if
not quite accurate item gleaned
"rout of an advance story on the Ne
braska-Oklahoma baseball series
from the Oklahoma Daily.
Herman "Roaring" Rohrig,
heavy Nebraska back who proved
to be a sensation when the Husk
ers' gridiron team beat the Soon-
ers, 13 to 7, in the fall, is on the
team. Rohrig will probably be in
the outfield when the game gets
under way. His hitting, according
to advance reports, is something
short of terrific.
Maybe Hermie is that famous
tenth man, or fifth column the
baseball team has not been sport
ing this year.

After a week end of playing
baseball in fast company, Nebras
ka will take on another team that
is also going strong come Friday
and Saturday.
Oklahoma took the Huskers in
to camp in two games by scores of
9 to 0 and 5 to 2. On Thursday, the
Scarlet dropped a game to the Ok
lahoma Aggies in an evening bat
tle. The Sooners annexed the Big
Six title in baseball by virtue of
the double wins over Nebraska
and have only one defeat to mar
their season record, that a loss to
Missouri.
Colorado .'will be the Huskcr foe
this week end. It is really out of
the frying pan into the fire. With
Oklahoma one of the best teams in
the south now a memory, the Buf
falos appear with an undefeated
slate in eight games.
Big 7 champs.
The Buffs are Big 7 champs in
the Rocky Mountain area. Last
Saturday, Colorado slammed out
16 hits in winning 11 to 6 over Wy
oniing. The Buffalos starting
pitcher was driven to the showers
in the fifth, but an able relief
hurler came in to the stem the tide
started by Wyoming.
Paul McClung, cleanup hitter,
won the ball game for the Buffs
with a homer that cleared the
right field with room to spare
Irwin Hendler, however, led the
hitting with four safeties in six
trips.
From the trip in Oklahoma, the
pitching of Sid Held stood out in
the series finale Saturday. Sid
limited the Sooners to seven hits
but his teammates could not score
over two runs off the fine Okla
noma pitching.

the general map of Europe. Dr.
Van Royen was the able super
visor, having lived in Holland for
many years. The sketch shows
political boundaries, major es
carpments, highland areas, forti
fied centers, fortified belts, cec
ondary fortified belts, zones of po
tential destruction, first water
line (of the Lowlands), and po
tential water lines. These features
are shown in many different col
ors so as to be easily distinguish
able. Troop positions of the allies are
illustrated with green arrows, and
Geman positions by black arrows.
With the geographical conditions
given, the reason for nazi attacks
occurring where they do is easily
discerned, and speculation can be
made with some reason.
Dr. Bengtson cited the motive
for the map was to encourage stu
dents to keep abreast of the news,
and to help them see what is go

The Oklahoma team is not par

Burrus won the 440 in :50.2,

Hurdler Munn had a better time
than Bill Smutz as he won the

Smutz won here in :15.3. Best
man in the sprints for the Aggies
is Akers, who placed in both
dashes. Metcalf, in addition, was
third in the hundred.
Nebraska has a great advantage
in field events, though. Harold
Hunt went nearly a foot higher
than Stewart as both won the
pole vault, while Nebraska's jave
lin, shot and discus men are far
ahead of the Aggies.
In a four-way comparison be

Next best marks made here
were Elmer Hackney's 51-1 in

Harold Hunt, and Missouri's Dick
