Huskers 6-Tiger$ 3
Friday afternoon was a per
fect day for baseball. The
sua was shining, the temper
ature was in the low 60 s, and
there were a few scattered
clouds in the sky. Tony
Sharpe's baseballers took ad
vantage of the beautiful
spring weather as they beat
the Missouri Tigers in their"
first Big Eight baseball game
of the season, 6-3.
The Huskers got off to a
good start in the first inning
when Al Karle reached first
base on a wild pitch. He
scored on Gene Torczon's tri
ple to right center.
Second Big Inning
The big inning for Nebras
ka was in the second. With
one out, shortstop Doug Siel-
er singled, stole second
and
went to third on a bad throw
to second by the catcher.
Third baseman Jim Kubacki,
walked. Pitcher Dwight Sieb
ler walked to load the bases.
Sieler was forced home when
Gary Reimers walked. Tiger
coach, John (Hi) Simmons,
pulled starting" pitcher John
ODonoghue off the mound
and sent in J. Douglas Gulick.
Gulick walked Karle which
forced in Kubacki, the Husk-
er's second run of the inning
Larry Lewis forced Karle at ;
second, but Siebler scored on
the play.
The Huskers got another
run is the sixth inning on a
double by Kubacki, and
gies oy sienier ana Kane.
Nebraska's final tallv came
in the eighth inning. Reimers
walked. and Karle was safe
at first on an error bv the
pitcher. Reimers scored'wben

... . J . . . .

inmne on a single, a stolen
base, and a double by the
pitcher to deep center. Their i
other two tallies came in the
fifth inning on a single, a
walk, and a double to left '
field.
Siebler Goes Route j
Siebler went the full route
in posting his third win oi
the campaign. He walked one
and fanned six while giving
up eight hits to the Tigers,
four of them doubles.

was the sixth

Huskers against one loss.

"Was that a bad day, or
was that a bad day?" Ne
braska's diminutive right
hander Gil Dunne said Sat
urday after dropping a 9-6
decision to the Missouri Ti
gers. Indeed it was, as the Husk
ers got men on base in near
ly every inning but couldn't
bring them in. Nebraska got
seven hits in the first game
of the doubleheader to Mis
souri's eight,, but the Tigers
got their's at the right times.
Nebraska opened w ith a run
in the first on Reimer's sin
gle. Gary stole second, went
to third on a fielder's choice
and . romped home on Gene
Torczon's sacrifice fly.
Charlie Ziegenbein, coach
Tony Sharpe's choice to pitch i
the opener, blanked the Ti-
gers for two innings, but the
third was the charm for hard
hitting Missou.
Ziegenbein walked two men
to open the inning and the
Tigers moved them around
with the help of a Husker
error and a single. That pro-j
vided them with three runs
and wa enough for Sharpe,
who relieved Ziegenbein
with Dunne. i

Nebraska opened the sec
ond half of Saturday's double
header with some crakling
hitting. In the first inning,
Reimers singled and Al
Karle doubled. Doug Sieler
walked and Nebraska's lead
ing hitter, Gene Torczon,
strolled to the plate.
Ken Lambert, the Missou
ri pitcher, could hear the
gentle tinkle of the showers
as Torczon lined the second
pitch foul down the third base
line.
Torczon bit a "blue darter"
back through the middle. Son
ny Siebert ran hard to his
left, snagged the ball on the
first hop and started a nifty
double play. Reimers scored
on the fielders choice, but
Larry Lewis struck out to end
the inning.
From there on, Missouri
had the horses. Siebert led
off the second for the Tigers
with a home run over the
richt field fence. 360 feet
left fielder, crashed a two
out triple to left and Ray
Uriarte singled him home.

The Daily Nebraskan has

The American League

Last year the Yanks finished
8 games ahead of Chicago
and 16 ahead of Boston.
New York has the best out-
field in the league with Man-
tie, Kubek, and Bauer. Kubek
was AL rookie of the year
st year.
Their pitching is fantastic.
They have Shantz, Ford, Tur-
ley and Sturdivant with
Maglie, Larsen, Ditoer and
Kucks for spot assignments.
Chicago is the top challen -
ger. They have tremendous
speed, good defense, and
good pitching. They are weak
in iv pr but Manager Lanez

spring practice today but
Coach Bill Jennings doesn't
promise any miracles. He
calls this year's squad the
greenest in major college his

that he feels that this years
squad will be better than last
years due to improved team
speed, one of the essentials
of a winning football team.
A competent staff of
coaches has been selected to
give the Huskers added in
struction. LeRoy Pierce has
been selected as Jenning's top
assistant. Pierce coached
Iowa S t a t e s' triple threat

last year. Warren Schmakel
will f'ssist Pierce as backfield
coach.
The line coaches win be
John Gordy, Don Strasheim,
Don Scarbrough, and Dick

An extra quarter of an inch is added to
the tapered mouthpiece and earpiece.
And the cradle which receives the "hand

The result: It is almost impossible for
an "off-tbe-hook" interruption to service
to happen.
This is, as we said, one example of how
we seek to do whatever we do better than
it has been done before.
And this same ambition fuides every
