Wednesday, May 16, 1956 THE NEBRASKAN Poge 3 Down Buffs, 6-1, 11-3: Eniwslkeirs Ta F roinro By BOB MARTEL Staff Sports Writer Cornhuske'r bats boomed yester day afternoon as Nebraska toppled Colorado 11 to 3 to sweep a two game series. Don Brown, slugging third sack cr, led the Nebraska attack with a double and a home run in five trips. Brown's round tripper came in the third inning with teammate Norm Coufal on base and pushed the Huskers into a 2-0 lead. Nebraska added two in the fourth when Gary Reimers singled to left and scored on Jim Kane's double. Kane later crossed the plate when pitcher Dick Geler singled sharply to left. The Buffs got to Geier for three hits and a run in the fifth. Chuck Ziegenbein came on to put out the fire by striking out Jim Nylund and forcing Bruce Klaas to ground out to Gene Tore con. In the last of the fifth the roof fell in Ou Colorado hurler Chris Schmidt. Eleven Huskers came to bat in this frame, six of which scored. The big blow of the inning was i if r f i i J . J M GEIER From The Sports Desk ilreit's Home ''',':''' Courtesy Lincoln Star MARTEN Off and running ... This week-end brings to a close the spring track season with the running of the Big Seven track meet at Manhattan, Kansas. The Kansas Jayhawks, defend ing Big 7 titleholders, are again favored to win the classic. The Nebraska Cornhuskers, who finished last in the 1955 running, are favored to finish no better this year. Husker harriers, Bill Hawkins and Bill Marten, are both rated bigh in the hurdles. Ken Reiners and Larry Smith are both strong contenders in the weight events while young Bernie Randolph could place in the pole vault. Distance men Bob Eswood and Hugh Osmera may place in the mile and two-mile runs, but they must improve their times to fin ish in the top two. The Jayhawks will be running with four Olympic contender! on their roster. Big Bill Nieder, who has been the talk of the nation for his 60 foot plus heaves in the shot-put, will be the top favorite to take the outstanding performer trophy. The Hawks speed merchant, Dick Blair, has been ripping off times of 09.5 in the century and ran third to Dave Simes of Duke and Bob Murrow of Abilene Christian in the Drake Relays. ' If track fans can recall about a reek ago, young sophomore Sime ran the 220-yard dash in the time of :20.1, a new world's record. Les Bitner, who has pitched the Javelin over 250 feet and holds the NCAA record, will be defending By MAX KREITMAN Sports Editor his title again this year. A young sophomore, Al Oerchis, is setting the 'pace in the hop-step-jump event and the discus. All in all, the Jayhawks cinder squad is one of the finest as sembled. Not since the days of Wes Santee, Art Dazell, Herb Semper, Bob Karnes and company, has coach Bill Easton fielded such a roster of stars. But how long can the Jayhawks continue to be the Oklahoma Soon ers of the track? Who will finally dethrone them? Maybe not next year, but in time, I feel that our own Nebraska Cornhuskers will be right near the top. The Huskers are building a group that could one day go all the way to the top. Finale time ... Track isn't the only sport that closes out their season Friday and Saturday. The Husker golf and tennis teams also trek to Manhat tan to compete in the Big 7 finals. In the golf events, NU's Warren Christenson and Jack Moore are favored to carry the top clubs for the Huskers. The tennis squad will be led by two sophomores, George Fisk and Art Weaver. The baseball nine closes out its home season this week-end with a two-day tilt with the league-leading Missouri Tigers. The Missourlans will bring in their top pitcher, Norm Stewart, to try and squelch the Huskers bid for the conference crown.

Phil Brody came on to relieve Schmidt and halted the Husker at tack by getting Brown to pop up to catcher Charley Parker. A touch of wildness and a sin gle by Bob Pomeroy put Ziegen bein in a jam in the ninth. With the bases full, Willie Green law was summoned in to the hill from center field by Tony Sharpe. Pinch hitter Hal Sprehe promptly hit into a double play which went from Al Karle to Coufal to John Beideck. Jed Morris then grounded to Coufal to end the ball game. Geier, starter and winner, was very effective in his five inning stint. He struck out ten, walked one and gave up only three hits. Geier might have been able to pitch his way out of the jam, but Coach Sharpe was taking no chanc es. Beside Brown, others getting two hits were Reimers, Coufal and Lar ry Lewis. The Huskers return to action on Friday, playing host to the Mis souri Tigers in the first game of a two-game series.

SHULTON Top Performance: Art Weaver Gains Star Of I'Jeeh kmd for Outstanding Tennis Play NU Crew Bows To Omaha U. ft ' 1 Courtesy Lincoln Journal WFAVER By GEORGE MOYER I-M Sports Writer The proverb states that a good athlete is a consistent one. By this qualification Art Weaver, the pride of Coach Ed Higgenbotham's ten nis staff, is a good athlete. The big towheaded sophomore is the most consistent performer for the racquet club this spring. Art1 continued his winning ways, a bright spot on the rather dismal tennis front this season, by win ning his single match and then teaming with mate George Fisk to cop one half of the doubles compe tition as Nebraska shut out Creighton University 7-0 last Fri day. Art topped this steller perform ance by winning his singles match against Omaha Monday. He and Fisk were upset in the doubles by Don Fisher and Hel mut Dahlke, a pair of villains who had earlier hung a 4-3 loss on the Huskers' also by winning their doubles match. Weaver's record this spring has been somewhat outstanding on a team that has had its troubles. The Lincoln High product has scored eleven points so far this spring. Since a point is scored for each set won and a player plays, at the most, just two sets a match, this record is nearly phenomenal and certainly consistent. Weaver is a pre-medical stu dent, a course of studies not usual ly associated with outstanding ath letes. He won his first letter as a fresh man last year and therefore has a chance to become a four year let ter man, "something you just don't hardly see no more," to quote lonesome George Goeble. Art gets his next chance at competition in the Big Seven tennis tournament to be held in Manhat tan, Kansas May 18 and 19. Coach Higgenbotham calls the tournament a toss up, but speaks more optimistically of Weaver's chances. Whatever the results in Manhat tan, Weaver is sure to make Ne braska tennissquads a threat for the next two years. Classified Ads WANTED-Rid to Philadelphia after commencement.

Betas Win Intramural Badminton As the field is narrowed, "soft- ball competition becomes consitent- ly tougher. So Norbert Schuerman the Kappa Sigs stocky little left handed pitcher, discovered Mon day. Schuerman pitched no-hit ball for five innings against the Betas, but eventually lost a two hitter 1-0 as the K.S. third baseman made two damaging errors in the last of the eighth inning. The only Beta's to get a hit off Schuerman were pitcher Tom Weeks and first baseman Cal John son. Neither hit figured in th scoring. Weeks pitched a neat six hitter himself. He was wild, but hard to hit with men on the bases. In other Softball action, the Phi Psi's knocked off Alpha Tau Ome ga, 14-11; Manatt 9-Bessey 8; Al pha Gamma Sigma 8-Pionetr House, 1.

The tournament champion and All-University champion was Ken Moorehead of the Beta's while Moorehead and Bill Kampfe edged Glen Place and John Fagan, Be ta's, in the doubles championships. Independent champion was R. A. Korsakas and team champions were the Betas, who topped runner-up Sigma Chi, 57-37.
