The time set is 3:30 Instead of the regular time of V This will give the game plenty of time without running into the early evening. Saturday's game will be at the Muny diamond at the regular hour of 2 p. m. Coach Wilbur Knight will put very different team on the dia mond this afternoon at their win over Kama the first of the week hat Injected pep into the squad nd It Is likely that the caliber of play will be greatly Improved over that displayed at the Missouri and Kansas State games here. Both wins over Kansas were earned and they have Increased the team's spirit 100 percent. Ivan Borman will be held In re serve for both games. Coach Knight says that Borman has a strong arm and can pitch two days in a row if need be. He is cool headed and takes over the mound when the going gets tough. Rube Dcnnine- will probably start the fireworks today. Borman saved both games for the Huskers at KanBas. In the first game he stemmed the Jayhawk tide after Kansas had scored three runs in the last of the ninth with nobody down. In the second game Borman was sent into the breech when Russell Bohr sent up a distress signal. In five and a third innings, Borman faced 16 batters not one ot which ever saw the first sack. Clndermen-Schulte Disagree. For a couple of weeks now Coach Schulte has been quoted in the press as believing that he will not be able to annex the Big Six crown when the conference track and field meet is staged here May 21. Sev eral of the columnists of the local paper are of the ne opinion, this one included. Tho feeling that we are not going to win the con ference meet does not find the slightest bit of encouragement among aome of the track team members. They say that they are so used to what Schulte and the rest of us say about not goinft to win this meet or that that it rims off their backs like water does a duck's. There is a deep-seated feel ing that the whole team will get some extra spirit and power from somewhere and land the meet. Even tho Bob Mills is one of those confident that Nebraska it going to win the meet, he it also confident about another fact and that is that Hackney of Kansas State wili beat him in the shot. Hackney can push the iron ball out over 50 feet any day of the week and twice on Sundays. If the team feels that they will get some extra strength to win the meet, then perhaps Mills can get some extra strength to beat Hack ney thit year instead of waiting until next year. Stranger things have happened and it would make red hot copy if he does. Game Set This Afternoon on Municipal Diamond at 3:30 O'clock. Wilqur Knight's Cornhusker nine will be seeking to lengthen Its winning streak to three this after noon when the Huskers go against Iowa State's Cyclones at 3:30 (not 4) on the Muny field diamond. The Cyclones, fresh from split ting a two game stand against the Missouri Tigers, boast a fine dou ble play combination In Shortstop Fleming and Second Baseman Huiskamp, the latter a sophomore.

Those making the trip are Har old Rundle, John Dietrich, Irving Kuklin. and either Harry Epper son or Bill Davis. The last two named are struggling hard for the number four position on the squad. Davis beat out Epperson in the last match and represented the Corn huskers at Iowa State last week end. Dietrich and Rundle will make up one douhlea team. Both have played together at Lincoln high. Nebraska should have little trouble In defeating the Jayhawks, after already taking one match from them earlier in the season, 4-2, in spite of the fact that the Jays have three returning vet erans. The Wildcats have two return- I tng veterans and to date have ! trimmed the Missouri Tigers 5-1. NORMAN, May 5. Both Stan ford and California may meet the University of Oklahoma In dual golf competition at Oklahoma City in June when the Indians and Bears come thru Norman on their way to the National Collegiate golf meet June 29 to July 2 at Louisville, Ky., Coach Bruce Drake announced upon the Oklahoma team's return from Its Pacific coast Invasion. "Stanford had the best team we met on our trip," Drake said They are strong from the No. 1 position right on thru the No. 4 They are taking six men to the national meet and if we can route them and California thru Norman, the match will be on." Broke Even on Trip. The Sooners broke even on the trip, losing to California, 4 to 14, to Stanford, 5 to 13, and defeating Southern California, which had tied Stanford, 10 to 8, and U. C. L. A., 15 to 2. Bill Craig, Guy Underwood, Jim Pate and Tom Gable were the Sooner golfers making the trip. "Without trying to take any thing away from California and Stanford, lack of practice hurt us the first two days," Drake said. "We got to play the course Just once before each match. Also Un derwood wasn't much good to us the first two matches because of a swollen thumb injured In a soft- bail game before we left. Close Match. "Even then we played California a close match in spite of the score. We lost three of the matches by only one up, California winning each of the three with a birdie on the 18th hole! Jim Pate got five birdies, shot a 73 and was all square to the 18th, yet lost yt to 2$ which shows how hot the Bears were. "Against U. C. L. A. Craig shot the most phenomenal round of our trip," Drake declared, "a 70 on a paj 71 course altho he took sixes on the first and 18th. He hit four birdies and an eagle and was three under par up to the last hole, birdying No. 5 twice. Underwood banged a 72 and his and Crate's low ball tally was 65." Twenty Hutker cinder artists will leave this afternoon for Law rence, Kansas, for their final meet before the conference champion ships, to be held here on May 20 and 2-1. Taking part in tomorrow's meet, besides Nebraska, will be the Jayhawks of Kansas U and the Wildcats of Kansas Stale. This meet brings together two of the conference's strongest track teams, Nebraska and K State, These teams put on a bitter dog fight in their indoor dual, with the Huskers finally coming out on top by the narrowest of margins. That meet was not decided until the last event, In which Nebraska won the mile relay and with it the meet. Since that time the Wildcat squad has been strengthened by the addition of Elmer Hackney, shot putter who has been getting over fifty feet consistently this year. Bob Mills and Charley Brock took first and second in the K-Aggie dual, but Hackney has since beaten Mills on several oc casions. K-Stte Win WITH TILT FRIDAY Mentor Yeager Sends Grid Performers Through Final Paces. According to Coach Sohulte's doping, Kansas State will win the triangular with a 14 point margin over the Huskers.

The team had to drill inside Wednesday, and could do little there because the track was too hard to allow any real work without endangering the runners' lees. Most of the team reported to take some brief warm-up exercises and a rundown. The Ivy Day program yesterday kept many of the team members away from practice, and those who did report Just Jogged around a bit and turned in. HuAker Squad.

The best looking man of the group was Hank Rohn of Fairbury. Rohn, a weight man, has been getting heaves of about 120 feet with the discus and 4S feet with the 12 pound shot this year. He will probably be up among the leaders in both these events in the state high school meet a week from tomorrow and may furnish Vic Schlich of Lin coln High with enough competition to cause Schleich to set a new shot put record, as it has been pre dicted that he will do if hard pressed. Also present was Faii bury's John Thiessen, 17 year old 284 pound shot man. The prepHters will have their final meets belore the state meet tomorrow. Their meet will be held in Memorial stadium on May 14. AMES, la., May 4.-Six weeks of spring football practice at Iowa State college was climaxed Friday afternoon with a full-time intra- squad game. Coach Jim Yeager, Cyclone mentor, selected tentative first and second teams from his 90 man squad. Three freshmen have broken into the first string lineup and five more will start for the sec ond team. None of tho remaining six men on the reserve team have won major letters, however. Eight major letter winners arc playing on Uie first team, two more are out for baseball and another is Injured. Paul Morin, first team sopho more tackle, and Co-captain Ev erett Kischer, 2-year quarterback, are out for baseball; Bill Lcchtcn burg, reserve back, is out for track; Howard Buck, sophomore tackle, is not in school this spring, while George Bazik, first team right half, and Howard Medin, reserve quarterback, are out of the lineup with injured shoulders. Lettermen Return. Lcttermen Chuck Heileman and Martin Boswell will be the start ing first team ends. Bill Bliss, squad member last fall, and Doug las Graves, prep, will be the sec ond team ends. Walter Stuenkel, prep, and Clyde Shugart, letter man, will line up at tackles oppo site Ed Pieper, yearling, and Harold Alger, 265 pound sopho more. Warren Shoemaker and Co capt. Ed Bock, veterans, will be the first team guards, opposing Joe Goldberg and Duncan Glab, minor letter winner. Jack West, sophomore center, will complete the first team forward wall. His opponent is Bob Moody, freshman. Hugh Vickerstaff, sophomore letterman, is occupying the quar terback position in Kischer's ab sence. Gordon Keupke, two-letter- man at fullback, is playing first team left half, while Lindsay Vin sel and Merle Osborn, freshman, are filling in at right .half ami fullback. The second team back field is composed of Don Griswold, sophomore quarter; Bob Darrow, sophomore left half; Tom Smith, prep right half, and EiJ Woodruff, prep fullback. By Workmen sod from the football practice field and are placing it on the varsity playing ground In the stadium. Practically the entire field Is being returfed with the exception of that around the outer edge near the sidelines. This is an annual occurrence, this resodding the football field. Spectators on those Saturday aft ernoon autumn days little realize the time and expense to keep the blue grass growing, in spite of its being continually trampled under foot. It costs the athletic depart ment several thousand dollars each year to maintain a field of grass there and on the practice field. A Penny Apiece. Every square foot of sod costs one cent. As this practice of re turfing the football field has been going on for years, the nearest available spots now in reach are about 30 miles away. Blue grass sod this year will be obtained from bottom lands near Ashland and Weeping Water with some coming from a farm near Eagle. The sod from these farms will be placed on the practice field in place of its turf, which has been re moved to the regular playing field. The stands standing at the south end of the race track last fall pro tected it from being trampled under foot, and since it was well watered, it is in better condition most suitable to be placed on the playing field. Because the practice and regu lar playing field are continually in use and being trampled under foot, they must always be resod ded, Other parts of the campus, which can be fenced off from the trespassers' foot, need only to be reseeded, and a fine stand of blue grass can be grown. Good Patches. The process of taking off the sod from the practice field is in teresting. A flat board with a steel blade attached about two inches below the surface of the ground, is pulled along by a team of horses and cuts a strip about a foot wide, This is rolled up and transported by truck to us destiny, The destiny in this case is the regular playing field, from which the old wornout and dead sod has been removed. A thin layer of dirt is spread on the field, into which the grass will send its roots, then arsenate of lead is lightly scat tered about to kill any bugs or worms present, atd then the turf is laid on in these long strips After it has been laid down and tampered into place, the water sprinkler Is played upon it. Some of the old sod. a little thin but still In fairly good condition, is being used on other parts of the campus. Some is being used to patch the lawn in from the coli seum, and also along the ground dug up when the connecting cable was run from the coliseum to Andrews. 9 9t CYCLONE DIAMONDMEN CHALK UP HIT RECORD Regular Sluggers Bat Over .300; Squad Averages .274 for Season.
