Pitching Vces Confronting
Husker Hardball Mentor
BY BOB BANKS.
(Slaff HIKirts Wrltnl
"My blue moon just won't turn
to nokl." Those are the senti
monts of baseball mentor Tony
Shiii' pc.
The Huskers will play their
first name April 9 and the
weather has permitted Sharpe to
take his squad outside for the
first time last Friday. The indoor
quarters ot the field house con
tinue to be practice quarters for
Sharpe's team. While the facili
ties are very good the squad still
needs to get outside where they
can participate in inter-squad
names among themselves and get
into better condition.
Gloystein Hurt
Perhaps an even greater blow
to the Curnlnisker hopes for a
good year is the possible loss of
ace pitcher Elroy "Lefty" Gloy
stein. He pulled a muscle in his
back during the early practice
sessions. Gloystein spent ' several
fhys in the Student Health cen
ter and reported back for work
outs only last week.
Ilo'vever, his back still both
ers him a ureal deal and
Sharpe fears that he may be
lost for the entire year. Sharpe
had been bankinu on Gloystein
to bear the burden of the
pitching load this year. He and
Jim Sandstcdt were the main
stays of the pitching staff for
thtM iwn nrnvinim vesrs. Sand-
utedt graduated last year.
Sharpe hopes to find the an
swer to his pitching problems in
Hob Jenkins, Phillipsburg, Kas.,
who was a member of last year's
squad. He saw considerable duty
in the role ot relief hurler. Bob
Camp, West Point, lettered last
year and is also a main cog in
Sharpe's pitching corps. Both of
these men were on the mound
list Friday. Sharpe stated that
they looked pretty good for so
early in the season.
Kopf, Possible
Sharpe also has hopes for
sophomore Del Kopf from Lex
ington. He has been showing
possibilities in workouts this
year and may get a chance to
win his spurs this year. Another
returning squadman is Ernest
liehne from Brainard.
Sharpe wasn't able to find out
too much from last Friday's
drills. The boys weren't ready to
exhibit the best they had in
them.
Ray Mladovich, Omaha, con
tinues to be the leading- first
kacker. His hitting was good
and he, has a left hand for
fielding.
Outside of first base the rest
of the infield positions continued
to remain a mystery.
John Kego and Bob Grogan
continu to argue the shortstop
position. Rego is a returning let
terman and Grogan lettered last
year.
Hays Returning
The second base berth, is still
.5 Candidates
For K. St. Football
One hundred and thirty-five
candidates, including twenty
letterman, answered Coach
Kalph Graham's tall for spring
football practice at Kansas State.
Six other grid lettermen are
participating in spring sports and
Gerald Hackney, Wildcat full
back ace, is aiiing with an in
fected knee. With the exception
of Gene Gill, who passed up last
season's play so that a knee might
fully Ileal following an opera
tion, all ot we leuermen were
members of the 1949 team which
started K.-State football on the
comeback trail.
Coach Graham has selected
about 60 men for varsity drills,
the remainder being farmed to
the B squad coaches for more
work. Graham has indicated that
he will emphasize the offense for
tha first two weeks. One of the
biggest problems facing the Cats
this season is the development of
a forward passing attack with
pass defense getting more than
its share of attention.
Outstanding prospects among
the transfers and men up from
the B squad of last year are Art
Little, a halfback from Marys
ville who transferred from Kan
sas; Don Anton, a halfback, trans
fer from Southwestern; Augie
Keller, fullback transfer from
Southwest Teachers College,
Springfield, Mo.; and Bob Mayer,
a defensive fullback up from the
B squad. Charle Thornburrow, a
220-pound tackle transfer from
Texas A and M is the most prom
ising line prospect among the
transfers and freshmen.
Lettermen reporting for spring
drills are the following: Joel Ber
ry, Arkansas City; Don Bliss, To
peka; Dick Bogue, Wichita; Bud
dy Burris, Wellington; Gleen
Channell, Kansas City, Kan.;
Lloyd Estes, St. John; Walt Gehl
bach, Beason, 111.; John Goff;
Co-captain Kenny Johnston,
Frankfort; Dennis Kane, Newark,
N. J.; Al Lummio, East Chicago,
Ind.; Jon O'Connor, Ossining,
N. Y.; Taltnn Pace, Hutching
son; Pete Raemer, Marysville;
Harold Robinson. Manhattan;
Francis Starns, Brewster; Ralph
Tidwell, Marysville; Dwve Tor
bett. Dodge City, and Jack Wal
lace, Afton. Okla.
in doubt. Hobe Hays is a return
ing letterman at this position.
At third base Sharpe has let
terman Bill Denker, Elkhorn,
showing the way. Denker has
been looking pretty good.
Tom Novak continues to lead
the catchers. Bob Lohrberg,
sophomore from Lincoln, got a
couple of solid blows Friday
and was effective behind the
plate.
Joe Benak, junior from Omaha,
looked the brightest amog the
outfielders. Bob Cerv, Weston,
still needs plenty of batting prac
tice. He has not been out for
drills very long and should
round into form when the
weather permits him to get out
side. Others in the race for out
field berths are lettermen Harlan
Powley, Pender, and Don Hays
of Lincoln.
On his first road trip Sharpe
will carry six pitchers, two
catchers, six in fielders, and four
outfielders. The squad will play
six consecutive games while on
the road.
Sharpe feels that the answer
to the success or failure of the
team this year lies with his
pitchers. He states that the rest
of the conference teams have im
proved over last year.
Frosh Organize
Freshman are again reminded
that a frosh squad is now being
organized. About 1 00 candidates
turned out for the meeting on
March 20. They started practice
last night in the field house and
will continue working out in the
field house every night this week
at 7 o'clock. Anyone interested
in going out who wasn't at the
first meeting is invited to report
this week at practice time.
Gymnasts Give
Exhibition
Last Saturday night members
of the Nebraska gymnastics team
put on an exhibition between
halves of the Lincoln Northeast
Lincoln High alumni game in the
Northeast gym. The game was
played for the purpose of raising
money to give as a scholarship
to a deserving high school ath
lete who wishes to attend the
University.
Boys participating in the exhi
bition were Norman Anderson.
Bud Lade, Art Hillman, Bob
Yarwood, Don Yoder, and Junior
Collopy.
From now until the end of the
year, the muscle-men will prac
tice continually on the masterful
art of gymnastics. Instead of
working on exercises, the boys
will practice on individual stunts.
When they come back out in the
fall they will then incorporate
these stunts into a co-ordinated
exercise.
Helping the boys out are Coach
Jake Geier and Leo Geier who
will graduate in June.
Coach Jake Geier has made
the following recommendations
for letter winners for this past
season: Leo Geier, Art Hillman,
Al Dunavan, Paul Hughes, Nor
man Anderson, and Bob Yar
wood. This is Geier's fourth let
ter, and Hillman's and Duna
van's second. The other boys are
lettering for their first time this
year.
Recommendations for fresh
man numeral awards have been
given to Bill Huber, Jerry Tubbs,
Ira Epstein and Don Yoder.
George Alexander is recom
mended for a manager's letter.
Wrestling Champs
To Enroll at NV
Wrestling Coach Buele Patter
son has announced that two state
high school wrestling champions
have decided to enroll at Ne
braska. They are Lynn Faires and
Bob Slate, both from Omaha
Tech.
Faires won the state crown at
165 pounds for two consecutive
years. Patterson feels that he is
definitely college material.
Patterson also states that Slate
is a good prospect. He won the
155 pound title this year.

Huskers to Lose Stars;
Frosh Strength Will Help
By Knox Jones
Mff MMirU Wrllrr
With the close of the 1950 in
door track season. Coach Ed
Weir can view with pride the
achievements of his varsity and
freshman thinclads in competi
tion this season.
Weir's varsity crew picked off
second place in the conference
meet at Kansas City earlier this
month and Nebraska freshman
annexed the conference frosh
postal championship.
Stars Gone
Although the Cornhuskers will
lose such men as Harry Megin
nis, Loyal Hurlbcrt, Harold Kopf,
Bob Berkshire, Ray Magsamen,
Bill Moomey, Jim McConnell,
Esref Aydin and Charlie Too
good by graduation, Weir should
have an indoor contender next
season.
Let's take a look at Nebraska's
indoor prospects next year.
60 yard dash Good all-round
strength in Lee Alexander and
Don Cooper with help from
freshman Dick Stansbury, Shel
don Jacobs and Bub Barchus.
Alexander is a possible standout.
440 yard dash Wendy Cole,
Leo Kehl and Jim Perry re
turning from this year's varsity
squad. Return to form of Bill
Hein and freshman Hobe Jones
will add depth. Could be weak
spot.
880 yard ' run Conference
strength in the half-mile will not
be strong next year and Hobe
Jones, Dale Srhnackel and Jay
Zieglcr, up from the freshman
ranks, will team with Ken Ja
cobs and Lee Moore to form good
middle-distance crew. The re
turn of Gene Yelkin will also

bolster Husker hopes. Jones Is
possible conference champ next
year.
One mile run Lee Moore,
Gene Robinson v.id Yelkin will
team with frosh Wayne Judds to
give the Huskers good strength.
Moore should be standout and
could be conference champ al
though he must contend with
Missouri's Bob McGuire.
Two mile run Stronger than
this season but still lacking con
ference strength. Dean Barnell
is only returning two-miler from
this year and will team with
Judds and Bob Kissyiger.
60 yard high and low hurdles
Loss of Berkshire, Magsamen
and Moomey will hurt hurdle
power but Wendy Cole, Don Bed
ker and Bruce Engle are return
ing "sonR with frosh Cathro, Tol
man, Stansbury and Prince and
Nebraska hurdle strength should
be the best in the conference
along with Missouri and Colo
rado. Shot put Loss of Toogood and
McConnell will be hard to re
place but freshman Warren Jen
sen has shown considerably im
provement this season and could
get conference points. Freshman
Ted Connor and Gewge Pro
chaska will also be available.
Pole vault Will be Husker's
greatest source of conference
strength next year. Don Cooper,
Leonard Kehl and freshman Don
Coupens could place 1-2-3 in
conference competition.

jumpers Dick Meissner, Bob

BRIGHT FUTURE Freshman
Don Coupens from Alliance has

He was undefeated as the Hus
