Now Hold 3-1 league Mark By HOWARD VANNT Assistant Sports Editor The first Nebraska conference road trip of the year produced three wins and two losses for Coach Tony Sharpe one of the losses being the services of sec ond sacker Bobby Reynolds. Speaking strictly on the games won and lost, the Huskers came home with .750 average. The only game lost during the road trip came in the second con test of the double header with Kansas State after the untimely injury to Reynolds. "The boys were pretty shaken up after Bobby was injured Sat urday but they came back in fine fashion Monday and Tuesday to sweep the Kansas series," stated Sharpe. Before Reynolds' injury the in field was the weak spot on the Nebraska team. With Reynolds out now it just make the situa tion more upset, Sharpe said. Coach Sharpe was pressed to make a quick decision for a re placement for Reynolds. H e moved utility outfielder Virgil Gottsch into the line-up at third base and switched regular third sacker Fred Seger to second. Coach Sharpe had praise for Gottsch's play in the -Kansas scries. Gottsch hammered out a home run with two men on base and also smashed out a double and a single in the second game. He had two for six in the first game. Sharpe stated that he thinks Kansas has one of the top teams in the league but that Nebraska hitting and pitching were very good during the series. e Jerry Dunn snapped out of a hitting slump at Kansas State and regained his potential hitting power. Centerfielder Jim Ceder dahl continued his ball clouting tactics during the entire series to add to the Nebraska cause at the plate. "Cederdahl is Improving with each game and is getting better acquainted with his new position in the outer gardens," stated Sharpe. Last season Jim was a substitute backstop. When Ray Novak took over the pitching chores for Nebraska, Cal TTplmA nlnvH firct haw anH crnt three hits in five times at bat for.ment a creditable performance. Pitchers Novak and Dick Mc Cormick turned in fine jobs on the mound for the Huskers. No vak pitched seven good innings of ball in the second game against Kansas. He went the entire dis tance but after the score stood at 20-1 Novak coasted the rest of the way allowing five runs in the final two inings. Novak struck out 10 men while issuing only one free pass. McCormick has been pitching good ball in all of his games so far this year. He came in the first game in the seventh inning to re lieve Charley Wright and shutout the Kansans the rest of the way to receive credit for the win. Both games were marred with errors caused mostly by the rough grounds. Coach Sharpe even went so far as to say that some of the errors could have been called hits because of the rough grounds. Dirkes Rolston played good ball for the Huskers on the whole trip. He played faultless ball during the entire series in the Sunflower state. Before the season started the shortstop position was one of Sharpe's main worries but Rol ston's steadily improvnig play has eased the coach's mind. "After the boys slept on Bob by's injury they seemed to be fired up and with more spirit. They knew that they had lost one of their best boys and acted as if they wanted to go out and win for him," stated Sharpe. The coach thinks that the team should improve as the season rolls along. He also believes that any team in the league except Kansas State is capable of taking the conference crown. Colorado, Iowa State who has a 5-7 record and a split with powerful Minnesota, and Missouri were singled out by the coach as the top teams on the list. "With every team in the league capable of upsetting the other this year s race should be very inter esting," Sharpe said. Nebraska plays two two-game series with Iowa State and K State and one two game series with the other league teams. The championship is then decided on a percentage basis. The minimum league games that a team has to play is 12 and the maximum is 16. The Huskers have a 16 game schedule this season. Nebraska's next opposition is against Missouri next Monday, The Tigers are fresh from two wins over K-State Sharpe is nominating Novak for the first game pitching assign and will probably follow with Fran Hofmaier in the second contest with McCormick and Wright in reserve. The line-up will be the same as he used against Kansas but the batting order will depend on whether the Tigers use a right or left handed pitcher in the series. The coach expressed a sincere wish that all of the student body turn out to support the players. y I -I y ( ) if! f I ' J III f , ,' ' " u- "if I '. v Hi l. , .; err" '"'( A &m vH f-u: k y.i '".1 ml fm tjk L rliil.i inmniMi, iinii.iiii.iiii'wiiiir..n.iii rr.iK.ll inn nii,iiln LiMiiii.n Ml.i' - lif4l'iii mi Courtesy Lincoln Star DRAKE RELAYS PLANS . . .

Jerry Dunn, who is pictured holding the Roy Withers memorial trophy for the outstanding NU player of 1952, is finding the strength with which he won the recogni tion last year. Dunn clouted several extra base blows at Kansas State and Kansas to help the Huskers bring home a 3-1 Big Seven won-lost average. Dunn was named as a college All-American last year as a junior. The men who play Saturday, April 25th, may play on Satur day, May 9, or if they are not available, other men of the or ganization can take their places. The low six scores of each organ ization will again be chosen from all those recorded by the organ ization. The first and second round low totals will be added together to determine the final placing of the organizations in the spring golf tourney. tallies turned the tide in favor of the grads Bob Pierce, towering a "short" six feet, seven inches, will com bine with Whitehead to throw up a tall defense to thwart the rega lars. Pierce was one of the fig ureheads in the 1951 alum win. Claude Retherf ord, another Husker great, is expected to re turn to his alma mater for the contest. Retherford is now coach ing an Indiana high school. Jim Buchanan holder of sev eral Nebraska scoring records, will be unable to return for this years play due to previous commit ments. He is now serving in the armed forces. All is. not black for the varsity Coach Harry Good has four of this year's starting five returning in Bill Johnson, Willard Fagler Don Weber, and Fred Seger. Joe Good, the other starter, will prob ably be rendering his services to the Alums. Seger was the leading scorer for the varsity in the 1952 meet ing with 19 markers. Other letterman out for spring practice are Paul Fredstrom, Stan Matzke, and Gary Renzelman, or Praice relays Weir Enters Squad Of Ten By GARY FRANDSEN Sports Staff Writer Ten athletes will represent Ed Weir's Nebraska track and field squad in the Drake Relays at Des Moines Friday and Saturday. It is the second straight big meet for the Husker thinclads as they participated in the Kansas Relays last weekend. Onlv one relay team will enter this weekend's big affair and that will be the shuttle relay foresome of Dan Tolman, Wendell Cole, Gaylord Smith and Jim Hofstetter. Weir stated that the quartet nas been covering the 480 yards in 62 seconds, but expressed hope that the powerful competition will en able the Huskers to lower their time a full second. The Husker coach went on to say that 61 sec onds or under would be con sidered eood for the distance. Tnlman. Cole and bmitn win also enter in the open 120-yard hurdles. Cole finished in the event in the Kansas Relays. As it has been proven In the earlier meets Nebraska's strength rests in the field events and tnat will probably be the case at Des Moines. . Weir stated that Cliff Dale Larry Smith and Paul Grimm will participate In tne snot put wun Dale and Smith doubling up in the discus. Dale captured a second ninro finish in the discus last r - week at Lawrence. Glenn Beerline, winner or tne hoc sten and lump at rvansab, will compete in the broad jump while Phil Heidelk will enter the high jump. Heidelk was a second place finisher in his specialty at Kansas. Other entries in the field events are Hofstetter, pole vault and Chuck Hunley, javelin. Jim Som- mers, another vaulter, will not be on the traveling roster because of a spiked hand suffered in last week's meet. There was also some optimism in the Nebraska camp. Weir stated that Hobe Jones has been running well during this week's workouts and should be ready for at least one race during All Sports Day. Bob Fairchild and Brian Hend- rickson, both injured dash men, are also slowly rounding into shape and both could be avail able for the All Sports Day dual with Oklahoma. Another bright spot in the recent workouts has been the performance of Wayne Whitaker, a 220 performer. . Lookine ahead to the May 2 dual with the Sooners, the head track mentor said that the out come will probably depend on which is stronger, Oklahoma s trackmen or Nebraska s fieldmen.
