It's an ill wind that blows
good!
That was exactly the situation
that the Nebraska baseball team
encountered Tuesday afternoon.
The Huskers fought, two losing
battles, one to the weather ele
ments and the other to Iowa State,
the latter by a 25-8 score.
The wind was not exactly cy
clonic but the Cyclones were. The
score, bears out that fact. The
storm was rather calm at first
but the State scoring was a rag
ing hurricane at the finish. In the
last three innings, the Cyclones
blew across 17 runs.
Three in first.
Iowa State scored three runs
in the first inning and two more
in the second, but the Huskers
came back to tie the score up at
5-all in the third inning. From
there on, however, the Huskers
were handcuffed until the final
frame.
Two more scores crossed the
plate in the fourth and one more
in the sixth. The real rury Drone
in the seventh when nine runner3
crossed the mathematical hassock,
Five more scores came in the
eighth and only three runners
could find their wav around to
home plate safely in the ninth m-nine.
The Huskers scored their runs
in the fifth on four singles and a
double by Warren Gabelman. The
final three runs for the bear let
came in the ninth on three hits,
a walk and an error.
Garey starting pitcher.
Bob Garey was the starting
Husker hurler but was replaced in
the seventh by Bob Searle. Harry
Truscott and Sid Held followed
in that order to the mound in the
final innings.
Second baseman Gordon ana
Catcher John Thompson hit hom
ers for the Cyclones to lead the
Iowa State attack. Mylenbusch
and Erickson pitched good ball for
the winners considering the strong
wind that was carrying the ball
far into the outfield on simple
flies that ordinarily would have
been infield outs.
Dow Wilson was on crutches for
the game and the Husker spark
plug will be out for the remainder
of the season. The flashy second
baseman injured his leg in a slide
into second base Monday. His
place in the infield will be taken
by Leonard Van Buskirk.

tramurals play as Softball games

week-end is over. Scheduled for

Prep, Lincoln
whole show in
year's athletics
Lincoln high school and Croigh-
ton Prep practically monopolized
sports titles in state interscholas
tic competition the past year, win
ning between them every cham
pionship except the wrestling
crown, which Omaha Central took.
Lincoln won the mythical foot
ball crown; Prep was undefeated

coln in both the baseball and bas
ketball finals. The Red and Black

Worrall to coach
at Walthitl high
Charles Worrall, former mem
ber of the Husker football squad,
has been appointed coach at Walt
hill for the coming year. Worrall,
who coached basketball at Cathed
ral high, this winter, succeeds Bob
Elliott, ex-Husker eager, who goes
to Aurora next year.
the winner of the A G R's and
either the Thi Delts or the Farm
house. Whether there is to be a
consolation game is not as yet de
termined.
No Husker fullbacks will be
lost from last year, and none will
be lost after next fall, so at pres
ent the position looks promising
indeed for the Huskers.
Vike Francis and Henry Rohn
who lettered last year as soph
omores are back. Francis, who hit
his stride late in the season, was
terror in spring practice at
smacking the line. The big boy is
a mean linebacker, and can be
called upon to punt when he is
needed.
Rohn, who scored at Pitt as did
Francis, missed most of the prac
tice sessions this spring because
of the extraction of several teeth.
is gaining weight, and can be
counted on as a good yardage get
ter next year.
Simmons Returns.
Listed with the veterans, too,
is Kenny Simmons, the Valentine
buster, i'immons saw some serv
ice last fall but not enough to
letter. Tough as the proverbial
nails, he flashed fine ground
gaining form this spring, and is
becoming a defensive star.
Then, there is Wayne Blue.
Blue, inexperienced last year, was
held out of competition. Since
then he has improved his defen
sive and blocking abilities, to be
come a leading fullback candi
date. Blue showed up especially
well as a plunger in spring practice.
