I: a-" Pplj ' j VrbEtG, Camp Getf The Nebraska diamond men will lay their hopes for a Big Seven crown on the line this Fri day and Saturday when they hi the road for Ames, Iowa, anda two-game series with the cellar dwelling Iowa State Cyclones. This is a crucial series for Coach Sharpe's crew. The games with Iowa State can either make or break the Huskers. The Husker hopes will also be riding with the outcome of the double header between second place Colorado and third place Oklahoma. I-State Jinx "These two games with Iowa State are always tough. The Cy clones always give Nebraska a rough go but I hope we can break the jinx this year." Those words by Coach Sharpe sized up the games between Iowa State and Nebraska. In Good Shape The Nebraska squad is in good shape physically for the coming series. The return of Second Baseman Hobe Hays to the line up should bolster the Husker hit ting department. Hays has missed the last seven games because of an injury but he will be able to take over his full-time duties this Friday and Saturday. Linus Vrbka, Nebraska's sopho- Alumni in Re-Match With Varsity The "Old-timers" are at it again. This time, Husker fans will get a second chance to view the 1950-51 basketball squad against the Alumni tonight at 7:30. The main purpose of the game is to give the visiting high school students a chance to see what the Nebraska basketballers look like. The game is open to the public, and admission is free. Contrary to the opinions of many sports fans, the grads barely edged out the Varsity, 64-61 in their last encounter. Be fore game time, many prognosti cates gave the alumns a 20 point edge over their younger opponents. Judging from the outcome of the last game, the oldtimers are again in for a scare. Again leading the cider squad will be Bus Whitehead in the center slot and Claude Rether ford at guard. Whitehead broke all Husker scoring records last season, and Retherford was high scorer on the 1949 Big Seven championship team. Same Teams Also adding scoring punch to the team will be Joe Brown and Bob Gates, guards from last year's squad. Other boys work ing with the Alumni will be An ton Lawry, Larry Walsh, Dick Schleiger, Dick Srb, Henry Cech, Ray Jussel, and Kenny Ander son. Also tabbed for work with the "Old-timers" is Neal Mosser, present coach of the Omaha Tech cagers. Inger-MUla. BAE. Court 3, Johnaon-Engle va.- Edee Dlnsmore, Phi Delt. Court 4.

For the next two days you, students and athletes from various high schools throughout the state, are guests of the University. We hope that your stay here will be pleas ant and to the seniors, we hope that you will return to our campus next fall. To those who are competing, remember, there can: be only one winner the rest must lose. Tom Daley, former sports-caster for WOW, used a quotation to sign off the air. I'd like to use part of it to tell you what the Univer sity's policy is in regards to athletics. "Its not whether you won or lost, but how you played the game." That one little sentence tells the whole story, barring nothing. Sometimes its very hard to lose. Americans are great winners, we pride ourselves in our accomplishments and sportsmanship. We are also good losers. A good example of an American loser is Barney Ewell who, along with Harrison Dillard, was competing in the Olympic games in London last year. You all remember how Dillard hit a hurdle in the Olympic try-outs and did not qualify, but how he came back in the 100 meter dash to qualify. Getting back to the Olympic games, you well re member how Ewell thought he had won the 100 meter dash, but the judges had picked Dillard by a hair. Ewell was disgusted, but he had no malice in his heart he was happy that his friend had won. To those who are winners, I congratulate, to those who were not fortunate enough to win I congratulate and to all, I sincerely hope that you will look over our campus, our school buildings and our athletic department and then decide to come to Nebraska U and make it your school. 781 High School Stars To Compete in State Meet Prelims Due To Start Today The Cornhusker cinders will be reheated today when a total of 781 Nebraska prep tracksters oDen the High school Track and Field Championships at Memorial Stadium.
