Coach Sharpe's Crew Hits
Park College Nine, 25 to 3
The Nebraska baseball squad made it two in a row
on their road trip, by pounding Parks college in East St
Louis Illinois, 25-3.
In the second inning the Cornhuskers went wild
collecting eleven runs. Receiving credit for the victory was
jjci nopi, ijexingion sopnomore, i
who went six innings, giving up
four hits and three runs. Re
lieving him in the seventh was
Dick Curley of Craig. Starting
hurler for Parks was Jin Hin
chey who gave up 17 ruiio before
John Rendos took over.
Mishaps for the two squads
were at a premium with Ne
braska making eight errors, and
East St. Louis committing eleven.
Diers Hits 5x7
Leading in this slugging de
partment for the Huskers was
Bob Diers, connecting safely five
times in seven official appear
ances at bat. Bob Cerv, Bill
Denker, and Tom Novak followed
close behind with four hits
apiece.
In the first inning Denker
slashed a home run down the
left field line with Diers and
Cerv on board. Ray Mladovich,
Diers, and Cerv each garnered
a triple in the Husker attack.
Out of the 13 Huskers seeing
action, only two failed to get
a hit.

NU Pitchers
Make Huskers
Darkhorse
"If we can get average pitch
ing we might surprise some of
the Big Seven ball clubs."
This was the way the Baseball
Coach Tony Sharpe sized up the
Cornhusker chances for 1950 be
fore he and his team left Sunday
by bui for a jaunt through Mis
souri and Illinois.
Elroy Gloystein, left hander
from Waco, will probably be lost
for the entire season due to a
back injury. He has been a start
ing pitcher for the last two sea
son and his loss hit the Huskers
in their weakest spot.
Camp Bock
Only other returning letter
man among the pitchers is Bob
Camp who was a relief man last
year.
The weather has permitted the
Nebraska squad to get outside
only four times since practice
started February 1. But the hit
ting and fielding has looked
good in those brief appearances.
In their first game of the sea
son the Cornhuskers walloped
Southern Illinois 10-0 as Linus
Vrbka pitched no-hit ball for six
innings.
The second game found the
Sharpe squad defeating Parks
College to the tune of 25-3.
The remaining four games are:
. Wednesday, April 12 -r Washington
University at St, Louis.

(Sports Editor, Dally Mebraskan)
Spring vacation is over and to
most of us it is back to the same
old grind, but to 82 spring foot
ball players it is a little different.
The past six or seven weeks
has been a lot of extra work on
the part of the Huskers who only
last Saturday climaxed their
spring drills with a game against
the alumni. Needless to say, the
game ended in a 13-13 deadlock.
Alumni Surprises.
To most of their followers and
to the team itself, it was a mild
shock. Pre-game dopesheets had
the varsity a 40 point favorite,
but a determined bunch of "old
timers," sprinkled with a few
youngsters, upset Coach Bill
Glassford and his sophomore
studded varsity.
After the game, Glassford was
forlorn and disgusted. Why? I
do not know. There were four
professional football players on
the alumni squad and none of
them were slouches when it
came to the "play for pay" game.
Sam Vacant! was one of the
better passers in his league
and Cletus Fischer has made
a name for himself in the pro
ranks. The other two, a couple
of giant tackles, served their
time in the pay ranks and
now are successful business
men. '
When speaking of Vic Schleich
after the game, Glassford said
that he was as good as any tackle
his team played against last fell.
With Schleich and Ted Doyle at
the two tackle positions, the
varsity was stumped when they
used their line plays.
It just proved that with a
couple of good tac'.les, a team
can go a long, long way. Last
year Nebraska was weak at this
position, lacking depth. For good
consistent play, Glassford had
only one man, Charley Toogood.
Boll?
Come this fall, he should have
another outstanding tackle in
Don Boll. Boll has been receiving
a lot of favorable publicity all
through the spring drills and a
heavy . burden rests . on his
shoulders.
He is only a sophomore and
he will be running against sea
soned men men who have
learned many tricks of the trade.
but before the. season is over, he
will have his "bag of tricks."
The spring drills went over
quite well and this was the first
in quite some time that the
Huskers have been able to take
advantage of the Big Seven's
spring work-outs. Last year,
Glassford had to rely on his Cur
tis camp for "Spring" drills.
To those who gripe when they
think about getting back to the
"old grind" of studies, think a
minute of the football players
who will be getting back to
JUST studies.

dermen will raise the curtain on
their 1950 campaign when they
travel to Lawrence, Kas., for a

the Big Seven Indoor champs.
Coach Ed Weir will try to off
set the Kansas scoring punch of
Pat Bowers and Bob Karnes in
the middle and distance races

is a strong possibility that the
meet may not be decided until
after the relay has been run.

Forty-Six Miles
Of Football
Film Shown
Since last November 1, Ne
braskans both in the state and
over the nation, have viewed
over 46 miles of films showing
the Cornhuskers in action on the
football field and on the basket
ball floor.
Also, since November 1, vari
ous athletic dinners and alumni
gatherings have received 246,000
feet of film.
Wendell Hoffman, manager of
the University's Photographic
Laboratory, has built and in
stalled a processing unit wbch
now makes it possible to nave
films ready for the screen two
hours after an athletic contest
ends.
Before this, the film had to be
sent to Kansas City or Chicagq
for processing. This usually
meant, a delay of 48 hours.
Last Saturday it was possible
to show the Cornhusker Alumni
how they looked in action at the
dinner which was held for them
after the game against the Varsity.
