In Important Big Six Tilts
One game of their three games outstate invasion out of the way,
the Husker baseball team moves to Norman today for the all import
ant two game series with the league leading Sooners.
The team met the Oklahoma Aggies at Stillwater last night under
the arcs for the first time any Nebraska team has performed upon
an artificially lighted diamond.
Today, the Husker nine, 15 men strong, move into the Norman
area to meet the Sooner hosts today and tomorrow afternoon on the
Oklahoma diamond. The games will be important from the Big Six
angle since the Huskers have not won in conference play thus far.
Sooners Can Tit.
The Oklahoma team has good offensive hitting power and that
coupled with the efective pitching jobs already turned in by th
Sooner pitching staff so far this seaon. The Sooners have met the
Iowa State Cyclones twice this week on the Ames field and twice
dropped them by a 12-3 count the first time and a 4-1, the second.
In the second game, the winners showed their ability to hit in a
pinch as they found themselves behind. They opened up in the third
inning on their scoring barage which saw them crossing the plate four
times before they finished.
The pitching of Dee Sanders
plus effective fielding turned the
tide from the veteran Willard My
lenbusch of the Iowa State team.
The first game was another
pitcher's triumph as Hal Cumber
land took the mound for the Okla
homans and allowed but two hits
in the eight innings in which he
hurled.
In the two games. Stephenson,
star Sooner center fielder, scored
four runs to lead both the batting
and scoring parade.
Cumberland is Tops.
Cumberland made the best
pitching appearance so far this
season. His ability to stand up
under fire has made him the most
dependable hurler on the staff.
Nebraska will depend upon Ern
ie Swanson for most of the work
either today or tomorrow with the
other mound duties going to Carl
Leach or Bob Carrey with Dwight
Lambert and Floyd Stark filling in
as relief.
Shortstop is in Doubt.
The shortstop situation made
acute by the ineligibility of George
Cribble, hustling Greenwood soph
omore, has made another shift in
the lineup.
Dean Jackson, Lincoln catcher,
has been moved to the short po
sition to fill in where Buck Gable
man has given up for betttr scho
lastic marks. Julius Woita will be
slated to take on the receiving
Job
Wolff It Surprise.
Surprise left-at-home was
Prank Wolff, Blair sophomore who
has been clicking nicely in the
outfield. Wolff in earlier tilts was
playing errorless ball and was hit
ting nicely.
Bob Cooper will take his place
with Bob Heinzelman and Jake
Sedlack in the right and left fields
respectively.
In the infield on first base will
be Allen Artman, Kearney first
year performer. He was ineligible
for the trip to Minnesota and Iowa
State but came into his own in the
Missouri contest last Friday when
he handled put ota and assists
with equal errorless ease and in
addition boomed out a homer with
nobody on base.
At second will be veteran Bernie
LeMaster with Jackson at short
and Pat Boyle on third base. Clark
Rice was carried as a utility out
fielder. The Huskers will return on Sun-
