iamond Tilt 14-7
Score: Minnesota 14, Nebraska 7. Remindful of the
thrilling battles these two schools have staeed on the crii
iron in past years. But that score is the final tally of the

picked up eight runs that spelled defeat for the Nebraska
nine in their season finale.

Nine hitters at bay in the first
two frames, but weakened in the
third canto, issuing three charity
passes and delivered a home run
pitch with bases loaded. Elliott
started the inning with a Texas
leaguer. Grant went to first safely
on a blooping bounder in front of
the plate, and Johnson . survived
on an error by Grogan to load the
bases.
Elliott Homers.
Shield greeted Big Jim with a
sharp single sending one run
home. Then Sandstedt issued two
successive bases on balls before
Dorrell was out on a high fly
taken by Cerv. But Sandstedt
handed Gilbert a free trip to first
and then grooved one for Elliott
who smashed it over the fence in
left-center field. Elroy Gloystein
came in to relieve Sandstedt and
snuffed the big rally by striking
out Honning, starting Gopher
hurler.
The Huskers rallied in their
half of the third to score three
runs. Denker was hit by a pitched
ball and Grogan singled. Ccrv hit

grounded put to the pitcher

only hit of khe day to drive home

fourth. Denkpfr made a diving stop
of Grant's hard hit grounder, but
the throw iwas too late . Grant
moved to seefcnd and Frank sent
him home with a sharp single.
Meers then tripled and scored on
an error by Hegwood. Denker and
Grogan collaborated to trap Dor
rell between second and third to
retire the side.
Tony Sharpe's Huskers showed
signs of life in the sixth inning.
Cerv lived on a wild throw by
Kranz, third Gopher chucker.
Hegwood and Maser drew a pass
to load the sacks. Cerv scored on
a passed ball, and Hegwood tal
lied after the catch of Branson's
long fly ball.
Final Husker Threat.

ed with two runs in the seventh.
Hegwood drew another free pass
to first. Maser singled, and
Wright survived on an error by
Meers, Minnesota short, to load
the bases again. Hegwood romped
home as Bronson hit into a field
er's choice and Maser slid in safe
ly on a passed ball.
Johnson hoisted one of Gloy
stein's pitches past Maser for a
triple and scored when Denker
missed a hot grounder off the bat
of Shield for a single score in the
eighth.
The Gophers padded their lead
in the ninth when Elliott lashed
out a triple following Gilbert's
single. Grant then doubled to send
in the final Minnesota run.

and Gloystein with 17 hits, while
the Huskers could nick four Go
pher hurlers for only seven safe
blows.
Whiffs Seven.

route. Gloystein displayed great
control, giving no base on balls.

ered eight free passes.
Cerv and Branson cut down zix
of Dave McMillin's boys at second
on attempted steals.

When you graduate, j'ou will have one of
the finest opportunities to learn to fly ever offered young
men in peacetime.
The Army Air Forces' Aviation Cadet Training Pro
gram gives you that chance. It cannot be duplicated
anywhere at any price. Leader in new things for avia
tion in jet and rocket propulsion, far-ranging heavy
aircraft, improved navigation facilities, and many other
of the latest developments in a fast-moving field the
AAF can help you begin a brilliant future.
The Air Forces have reopened Aviation Cadet training
to qualified civilians 18 to 26V& years of age.
Men selected for training as pilots under the
terms of the program must be single and have
had at least two years of college education, or
the equivalent, in an accredited institution.
Upon successful completion of the course,
graduates will be commissioned Second Lieu
tenants, Army of the United States, and as
signed to flying duty with the Army Air Forces.
Reactivation of the Aviation Cadet program is typical
of the AAF's continuing effort to provide selected young
men every opportunity to earn advancement. Cadets
who win their wings as today's pilots will be the same
kind of men who, in wartime, built and manned the
world's mightiest air arm.
Make your plans now to get in at the start ! By apply
ing immediately after graduation, you can take your
qualifying examinations and enter the Julv 1st class,
or if you want a summer vacation you can take
your examinations now and be ready to enter the
class beginning October 15th. Further in
formation is available at AAF Bases, U. S-
Army Recruiting Stations, local Civil Air
Patrol headquarters, or by writing to the
Commanding General, Army Air Forces,
