Cornhusker Co-op, Zeta Beta
Tau, Alpha Tau Omega, City
YMCA, and Sigma Gamma Ep
eilon are the five teams remain
ing in the light for the fraternity
end independent softball cham
pionships when this paper went
to press.
After Thursday night only four
will remain for the finals Friday
afternoon. Either Zeta Beta Tau
or Cornhusker Co-op will be
eliminated in a Thursday replay.
Surprises.
Alpha Tau Omega and the city
YMCA are the surprising final
ists in the two tourneys. The
Taus, who finished fourth in
regular league 1 competition, has
ewept by three tough opponents,
two of which owned early sea
eon wins over the ATO's.
The YMCA, likewise, owns
three tourney victories over
tough competitors in the inde
pendent playoffs.
Included ATO victory swing
are wins over Kappa Sigma,
Farm House, and Tuesday's 16-7
rout over Phi Delta Theta.
The Taus started fast in Tues
day's contest, scoring three times
in the first inning, three in the
third, and four times in the
fourth. A six-run fifth frame
was just for fun as the Phi Delts
were beaten.
The City Y and Practical Arts
battled eight innings in their
semi-final contest, the YM ex
nindinif in their half of the eighth
for four runs and the victory,
5-1. .
Tony Lawry of the Arts and
Stewart Minnick of the Y
hooked-up into a good old pitch
er's duel throughout the game.
Both pitchers allowed only four
hits.
Bleber Again.
Don Bieber was practically the
whole story again for the Sig
Gams in their semi-final windup
with ASME. Bieber hurled an
other one-hitter and registered
his third shutout of the season as
the geologists won, 5-0.
Fourteen engineers went down
swinging as Bieber bore down.
Busby was the hitting star for
the winners getting a home-run
and a single in three attempts.
In the other semi-final tourney
playoff game, Cornhusker Co-op
defeated Zeta Beta Tau in a pro
tested contest that is being re
played Wednesday night.
Lutherans Roll
The Lutheran Student House
recovered from its Monday night
setback and slapped previously
unbeaten Boptists to the tune of
11-1 Tuesday night. The result
throws the Denominational race
into a tie between the two out
fits and calls for a rematch Wed
nesday night.
Cleo Aden threw a one-hitter
at the Baptists while his mates
were banging nine safeties off
losing pitcher, Curry. Dismeyer
was the batting star, blasting two
homeruns, a triple, and a double
for a perfect night at the plate.
Drake Tells
What Makes
Good Teams
"It isn't the coach, it isn't the
material that make good teams
or good athletes it's (1) the
heart or desire (2) the mastery
of fundamentals and (3) team
work." Bruce Drake, basketball and

closed this formula as his secret
for successful teams in an ad
dress to members of spring and
winter sports teams from Lin
coln's five high schools Tuesday
night

upon the importance of the de
sire to play the intestinal forti
tude to give your best at all
times practicing the right thing
and teamwork personal sacrifice
to wprk as a unit as special re
quisites of a real champion ,a
real athlete and winning team.

taking a leg of the mile relay,
is expected to pick up some
valuable points for Nebraska
in the 880. The 880 mark is
held by Glenn Cunningham of
Kansas at 1:52.2 set in 1940.

LOYAL HULBERT after the
Big Seven's 440 yard dash

of his career in order to break
the :48 seconds mark set by
Oklahoma's Bill Lyda in 1942.
ATO's Set 3 Marks
To Win Outdoor Meet
BY BILL MUNDELL.
Alpha Tau Omega scored 22
points in the last two events, the
high jump and 1,000 yard run,
to win the intramural butdoor
relays Tuesday afternoon. The
Taus finished with a total of 75
points with Sigma Chi in second
with 67 and Presby House m
third with 50 points.
Paul Holm. Hobe Jones, Don
Coupens, and Jim Perry were
the four men who gave the Taus
their sudden burst toward the
end of the mee;.
Holm set a new outdoor record
as he leaped 5 feet, HVi inches
in the high jump. The leap erased
the old record of 5-10 held by
ATO Rice since 1947. Coupens
was right behind the Tau record
breaker, gain.ng second place
points with a jump of 5-9.
Jones ran away with the 1,000
yard run for the 7 point first
place with Perry taking down
third place points along with
Dick Anderson of Presby House.
In the same two events Sigma
"hi could only pick up 2 points
through Neal Prince's tie for
fourth in the jump.
Coupens Record
Coupens and Jones kept the
Taus right in there all the way,
also Coupens established a new
record in the pole vault, upping
the mark to 12 feet, 10 inches
while Jones ran a torrid, half
mile on the mile medley team
to help the Taus establish a new
record in that event. The four
runners were timed in 3:44.7.
Running with Jones were Perry,
Don Richardson and Bill Win
gender. The four Presbyterian runners,
finishing second, equaled the old
record.
Warren Jensen and Ted Con
nor, two Sig Chi heavies, kept
the Chi's in the points in the
weights. Jensen and Connor fin
ished one-two in the shot put
while the same two picked up
fourth and second places in the
discus.
The Sig Chi relayers copped
the two shot relays, winning the
440 yards in :46.9 seconds and
just barely edging the Presby
runners in the 880 yards in the
time of 1:37.5.
Bruce Villars of the Tekes and
Irving Thode of Phi Delta Theta
were the only two men able to

'C57fe Will Win,
ted IC-S S"5ws
BY KIMON KARABATSOS.
(Sports Editor, Dally Nebraskan). .
Pitty poor Kansas State they
have more potential first places
in the Big Seven meet coming
up Friday and Saturday in
Memorial stadium, but are they
favored to win? I'm afraid not,
that jinx goes to Missouri.
The Wildcats, on the basis of
spring performances in outdoor
and indoor meets have posted
their claim to four possible first
places.
Rollin Prather leads in the
shot put and discus. He has won
the discus title the past two
years and took the shot put
medal three times.
Two records might go the Wild
cat hefty. He has bettered the
conference standards in both
events, putting the shot 53-5 Vi,
bettering his own mark of 53-2 7s
set in 1948.
He has spun the platter 164-9
which is four feet over the record
now held by Nebraska's Edsel
Wibbels.
The nation's number one high
jumper will be on hand in the
star-studded 22 annual Confer
ence meet. The Lanky K-Stater
has jumped 6-8 V this spring for
the top periormance in the
nation.
Last week he was the victim
of a surprising upset by Ne
braska's Dick Meissner, but
Severns says that he will be out
after revenge. The record of
6-7 5-7 was set by Kansas' Tom
Scofield in 1947.
Kansas States team is def
initely the strongest team in the

spective leagues are the follow

Along with the release of the

makes this important announce
ment: All third round doubles
matches will be played beginning
at 5 p. m. Thursday. All fourth
round doubles matches will be
played at 7 p. m, the same day,
Thursday. Doubles finals will be
played at 8 p. m. on Friday.
The five singles league cham
pions to be determined Thursday
will meet in an eight bracket
tournament (three byes) for the
All-U honors to be finished Fri
day. It is important that every
man still in the tourney watch
the bulletin board at the P. E.
Build; lg.
field, but they are weak in the,
track events. Furthering their
claim on first places in the field
are Herb Hoskins and Jim
Danielson.
These two represent two of the
nations number one broad jump
ers. Hoskins leads the confer
ence with a jump of 25-2. That
was his top effort of the spring
campaign and came against
Kansas university.
Danielson has jumped 24-3 in
competition and might come up
with a blue ribbon.
Severns Has
Answer to
NU Upset
Virgil' Severns, Kansas State's
peerless high jumper, lost to Dick
Meaner of Nebraska in a dual
meet here a week ago, but there
were extenuating circumstances.
Severns had been doing 6-4
consistently but went out at 6-1.
His best mark was 6-8 at the
Texas Relays.
The approach to the high
jump standards at Nebraska
Stadium is an asphalt composi
tion. I
Severns kept complaining that
he simply couldn't get off the
ground. After the event had
ended the mystery was solved.
He was wearing long spikes in
his track shoes. He pounds hard
on his left foot as he starts his
take-out. The spikes were an
choring him.
He'll wear short spikes this
week end when the Big Seven
Conference athletes gather here
for the 22nd Annual Championships.
Tigers After
500 Average
Floored in their first six starts
earlier this season, Missouri's
baseball team will be shooting
for a .500 or better spbt in the
overall standings when they
meet Oklahoma in two windup
games here Friday and Saturday.
The Tigers, who will carry a
9-9 seasonal mark into the Sooner
series, will be trying to stake a
claim to third place in the con
ference, with a possible shot at
the runnerup berth. They have
won seven loop games against
five defeats. Oklahoma is cur
rently the top tenant with a 6-2
reading.
