The Husker golf team wil be
up against stiff competition to
day when they tangle with Iowa
State at Ames. The Huskers this
year have posted one win in three
starts, that being a 17-1 victory
over Kansas State. Iowa State on
the other hand has hung up seven
straight triumphs in their race
for the Big Six crown and Jack
McGuire's men will be pointing
for Nebraska. The Huskers will
be at a slight disadvantage for
Bernie Mortensen has an injured
haid and will see little if any ac
tion. Five men made the trip be
sides Mortensen, they are: Don
Waite, Del Ryder, Verne Staunch
and Don Stroh.
The state high school track
meet which will be held today and
Saturday in Memorial Stadium
will offer plenty of interesting
competition. McCook led by Leo
McKillip and Boys Town featur
ing Leonard Kroll look to bethe
favorites in the meet. McKillip is
expected to crack the hurdles
mark while the West Dodge
sprin tman is expected to give the
dash mark a stiff argument. If he
runs true to form, Leonard Kehl,
the Scottsbluff vaulter, will post
a new pole vault record. Kehl has
gone over 12 feet 9 inches this
year and the old record held by
Howard Debus is 12 feet 8 inches.
With the exception of Boys
Town the, Omaha teams are ex
pected to' take a back seat this
year leaving the way open for
strong aggregations from McCook,
Central City, Hastings, Scotts
bluff and Lincoln Northeast. -
While on the subject of track it
might be noted that in the recent
Intramural track meet every rec
ord except one that being in the
pole vault event was broken. Most
of the records standing at the
present time will be hard to beat
next year for the quality of com
petition will soon level off. The
present marks are for the most
part where they should be, for it
must be remembered that at least
over half of the contestants in
such a meet do not have the
proper or adequate training that
it takes to make standing records.
However," the Intramural records
still stand favorably in compari
son to many other high schools
and college records.
With the Big Six outdoor meet
drawing near, attention will fall
on Nebraska's chances against the
powerful Tigers of Mizzou. The
recent dual meet held in Lincoln
between the two schools seems to
be a good indication of what is to
come. However, the voices rising
from the rival camps of Kansas,
Iowa State, Oklahoma and Kan
sas State spell power in most of
the events. The Wildcats from
Kansas State might have a great
deal to say about what happens
in the weight events while their

Tennis Play
Takes IM
Spotlight
Since the completion of the In
tramural track meet held May 12,
and 13, main interest has returned
to the remaining inter-house com
petition in the tennis singles and
doubles, and the horseshoe tour
ney. In the tennis singles, five men
have advanced to the quarter fi
nals. McGehee of Phi Delta Theta
will oppose Rex Jones of Phi
Kappa Psi, while Fisher, another
Phi Delt, and Durland. of Sigma
Alpha Epsilon, will decide who
will play Bahr of Sigma Phi Ep
silon. Saladin of Sigma Alpha Ep
silon beat Ray Spured of Phi
Gamma Delta to earn the right to
play the winner of Means, Beta
Theta Pi and Hurlbert. Don Mc
Arthur of Sigma Alpha Epsilon is
waiting to oppose the winner of
Loomis, Beta Theta Pi, and Whe
lan of Alpha Tau Omega.
The tennis doubles tourney has
seemed to be the victim of late
matches as only two of the four
semi-final matches have come off
by the appointed date of Friday,
May 16. In the matches played,
Jenkins and Hurlbert, both Inde
pendents, beat Leik and Dedrich
of Alpha Tau Omega, while Mc
Gehee and Olsen of Phi Delta
Theta were busy eliminating Dur
land and Mills of Sigma Alpha
Epsilon.
The Horseshoes contest is going
well, with all four of its quarter
final matches ready to be played.
Kushman outpointed Greenwood
to gain his chance against Wei-
gand of Delta Upsilon. Shaw of
Sigma Phi Epsilon opposes Firn
haler, while Kathol, Delta Tau
Delta, will pitch against Chastain
of Delta Upsilon. Anderson beat
Wenke of Sigma Chi to play Stahl
of Delta Upsilon .

On Road Today
Nebraska's baseball team will
tangle with Kansas this afternoon
on the Jayhawk field with the
hope of evening their win-loss
record in the standing of the Big
Six.
Included among his sixteen-man
traveling squad Coach Tony Sharp
took with him five pitchers: Jim
Sandstedt, Elroy Gloystein, Her
ald Jacobs, Wally Scheef, and
Sterling Van Vleeek. Others on
the traveling squad include Jim
Sharp, Fritz Hegwood, Bob Gro
gan, Bob Cerv, Wes Maser, Thur
man Wright, Hobe Hays, Del
Blatchford, Willard Branson, and
Don Hays.
Thus far in the season Kansas
has been able to win only two
out of ten starts while the Husk
ers have been successful in six
of thirteen conference games. The
teams will play a two-game series
with the second game being played
Saturday.
The two-game series will com
plete Nebraska's Big Six sched
ule with only a pair of games
with Minnesota remaining. Ne
braska will meet Minnesota on
the Husker diamond May 19 and
20, for their last 1947 appearance.
If Huskers Bob Cerv and Jim
Sandstet continue to heal as they
have in the past few days, Ne
braska will be near full strength
for the first time this year. Sand
stedt seemed to be in good shape
of late as he put the Iowa State
Cycknes down, 4-2, in a recent
series held in Lincoln.
