The attack was paced by Zaruba,,
Larry Naviaux, George Harsh-

The varsity drew first blood
when Naviaux scored from a yard
out with less than six minutes gone
in the initial frame. Harshman
highlighted the 80 yard drive with
a 39 yard pass to Hilding and
12 yard strike to T.e to set up the
score. Harshman crferted and the
regulars led 7-0.
The grads then exploded. Furgus

broken field running as he tip'
toed 21 yards down to the varsity
35 yard line. Bob Smith, former
Cleveland and Philadelphia pro
gridder, tore through the right
side of the line and powered his
way down to the nine where he
. fumbled. Dennis Korinek picked
p the loose pigskin and rambled
the reamining distance for the ini

no good and the varsity held a
slim 7-6 lead, but not for long.

Schbacker of the Alums pounced on

Tracksters Maul Colorado A&M

By STAN WIDMAN
v Staff Sports Writer
The Husker track squad com
pletely dominated the Tracy meet,
winning 13 of 15 events to run up
the score to 105 1-3 to 25 2-S over
Colorado A&M in the Memorial
Stadium. This was the first out
side track meet of the year ex
cept for field events which were
. run indoors.
The meet produced twelve dif
ferent winners with Knolly Barnes,
. Keith Gardner, and Don House
" sharing part of a second win in
a winning effort in the mile relay.
Bob Niemann was the fourth man
on the relay team which sped the
distance in 3:26.6. Gardner did a
. :48.5. quarter mile in the relay.
Due to the wetness of the track,
times weren't up to par but the
Huskers showed their finest form
of the year.
Gardner scored his victory in
the 120 yard high hurdles. His
time was :15.1 in the only event
he entered in the meet. A clean
sweep was scored in that 'event
with Bill Marten and Bill Hawkins
coming in second and third re
spectively. Barnes notched a victory in the
880 yard run for his other win.
His time of 1:59.3 was excellent
considering the condition of the
track.
Don House won the 400 yard dash
. in :52.2. He was followed closely
by teammate Don Ficke in one
of the most exciting races of the
afternoon. ,. ,
The distance events saw Bob El
wood continue his fine running. He
won the mile in 4:28.9 and came in
second to teammate Lee Carter
in the two-mile. Carter and El
wood were never more than one
step away from each other during
the entire distance. Elwood led for
three laps before Carter forged
head to say. This is the first time
Carter has beaten Elwood in the
distance.
Don Phillips .and Dick Jahr
staged a running duel with each
coming out on top in one of the
two races. Phillips won the 100
yard dash beating Jahr by- the
width of the ttring and Jahr came
right back to midge Phillips in the
220 yard dash. Times for the events
were :10.0 and :22.5 in that order.
Don Ficke made it a clean sweep
in the 220 by taking the third.
Marten showed fine form ' and

bon. Hawkins and Chuck Wolla

event taking second and third.
In the two field events held out

three in the javelin and took a
second in the discus. Dean Brit
"tenham won the javelin with a
heave of 198 feet, 9 inches. Bill

other two places. The discus event

Varsity game was played before

iaux's hands and the Lexington
sophomore fell over the goal line

In the fourth period, Engel
blocked Ferguson's punt and set
up a Zaruba tally to end the after
noon's scoring. The Alumni put on

Rice of A&M at 12 feet.

Cubs Picked For Cellar;
Not Much Hope In '57
By BOB WIRZ
Staff Sports Writer
"When Bob Scheffing took over
as manager of the Chicago Cubs
he inherited quite a job. Last year
the Cubs finished in the National
League cellar, 33 games behind the
champion Brooklyn Dogers. It
looks like this season could be
even worse.'
' The hopes depend mostly on
such men as Ernie Banks, Gene
Baker, and pitcher Bob Rush.
Rush is the veteran of the Cub
pitching staff. In his tenth year
the 31-year-old veteran of the Cub
righthander would like to have an
other winning year. Rush had a
13-10 mark last season which is
good considering the help he had.
Behind Rush will be Tom Po-
holsky, Turk Lown and Don
Kaiser. Po hoi sky came from
St. Louis in " the winter. He
was the Cards tough, luck hurler
last season. Lown had a 9-8 mark
with the Cubs and Kaiser was
4-9 but did a better job of hurling
than the record shows. Jim Bros
nan. Gene Fodge. Dave Hillman.
Elmer Singleton or More Drabow
sky could move in as a starting
hurler. The latter is a bonus baby
who looked good last season. The
other hurlers also have little Or
no major league experience. ,
The catching staff has been bol-
lstered with the addition of Char
lie SiTvera. The 32-year-old receiv
er has been looking good this
spring after nine years on the Yan
kee bench. Silvera has a lifetime
batting mark of .291 but it is hard
to say whether the long time on
the bench will keep him from doing
a good job.
Silvera will have help from Cal
Neeman, Ray Katt, and Jim Fan
ning. Neeman was second string
catcher with a strong Denver club
last year. Katt spent his time
with St. Louis and Fanning alter)
nated between Los Angeles and
Tulsa.
The Cub infield also will see
changes from last year. Dee Fon
dy the '56 first baseman is being
challenged for his job by Walt
Moryn. The ex-Brooklynite, Moryn
a crowd of 5,000 Husker fans as

The Varsity won the contest 22

j to try to pull the game out, Vcan
ti attempted a field goal. The ball
looked as though it was going to
split the goal posts, but at the last
moment veered to the left and
the Varsity had had its revenge.-
All in all it was a well played
ball game. Bill Schbacker, Tom
Novak, Ralph Damkroger, Rex
Fisher, Ferguson, Smith, Dennis
Emanuel and Moon Mullen played
heds up ball for the grads.
Naviaux, Zaruba, Engel, Hilding
and Harshman were the stars for
the "Big Red."

A rookie, Casey Wise, is at
tempting to move in at second
