Wednesday, October 10, 1951 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN PAGE 3 w 0DH U BY RON GIBSON Staff Sport Reporter Unleashing an outburst of power that reminiscent of the old Yankee Murderer's Row, the JBronx Bomoers crushed the New York Giants 13-1 at the Polo Grounds Tuesday. The vfctory gave the Yankees a one game edge on the Giants. It was the Yanks' third win com pared to two triumphs for the Durochermen. The Bombers backed ud south paw Eddie Lopat's five-hit pitch ing jod with 12 hits, including a grand slam home run by rookie infielder Gil McDougald and a two-run homer bv Phil Rfzzntn MacDougald's round tripper came In the third inning and Rizzuto's in tne lourth frame. The Giants used five pitchers In an effort to stop the Yanks' base hit binge. Starter Larry Jansen held the Bombers in check until the fatal third inn ing. Two walks and a single by PiMagglo led to a run. Dnrocher elected to walk first baseman Johnny Mize and pitch to Gil MacDongald. The strategy back ' fired as the young second sacker slammed one of Jansen's slants into the left field bleachers. Casey Stengel's boys went at it again in the fourth. Monty Ken nedy, who had relieved Jansen, issued a free ticket to Gene Wood ling and then was tagged for for Scooter Rizzuto's homer. In the sixth inning the Yankees got to George Spencer, the third Giant pitcher, for two more on two singles, an error, and Johnny fllize's double. As if this were not enough, the Polo Grounders collapsed in the eventh as their inter-borough rivals scored four more tallies. Even a fourth relief hurler, rookie Al Corwin, was unable to stop the onslaught. In the ninth, the Bombers threatened as Gene Woodling tripled to deep centerfield, and was out at the plate trying to stretch it into an inside-the-park home run. Besides using their 12 base hits to good advantage. The Yanks made use of nine bases on balls given up by Giant Hurlers and three errors made by the Durochermen. Two of the Yankee tallies were unearned. Leo the Lion's men got only live base blows. Their only run came in the first, when with Al Dark on second, Yankee outfielder Gene Woodling fumbled Monte Irvin's single. Dark romped home easily.

Frank Simon and Rn.i Mullen Via va KnAti selected to lead the Husker gridders against Penn State Satur day. Simon plays offensive end, and Mullen performs at defen sive tackle. Academic Troubles being NU Gridmen By GEORGE PAYNICH 1 changes in his offense group are Sports Staff Reporter due for today, but he also stated While the Cornhuskers were that he could not offer a concrete ousy iuesday polishing up their offense, and the passing game in particular, a new worry popped up in the Nebraska football camp. Coach Bill Glassford is greatly concerned over the poor attitude that his athletes have been taking toward their schol arship. Glassford has seven or eight varsity players in mind as 1 the chief offenders in the class 1 cutting problem. Because of this situation, the Husker coach has issued a new policy covering the matter. From now on he said. "It is the policy of the football squad that anyone missing classes unauthor ized will be dismissed from the football squad." "The Husker boss let it be known very clearly that any of his play ers not attending classes will not have the opportunity to represent the University on the football field. Gettinr back to (he task at hand, of molding a winning team, Coach Glassford said he was very pleased with the Mon day showing of frosh halfback Al Yiesley. "He has very good action," said the Husker coach. Glassford indicated that no new I The Senchwarmer By BOB BANKS Sports Editor The heavyweight boxing turmoil is almost as complex as in ternational affairs. Nobody seems to know what the other one has or has not got. ; Jersey Joe Walcott is currently reigning as boxing king of the world. But how long he will keep it is about as predictable as Slinin' Sammy Baugh's retirement from professional football which has been rumored for the past five years. Walcott finally captured the heavyweight crown on his fifth attempt, but one hit in five times at bat certainly is not a good average. He claims to be 39 years old, but so does Jack Bennv. Many authorities on the inside swear that Walcott will never see 40 again. Before winning the coveted title. Walcott by both Joe Louis and Ezazrd Charles, thoueh a lot of fans think he beat Louis, in their first bout. To Walcott's credit, it can be said that he combines both boxing skill and punching power. Even so, it is quite obvious he is well past his prime. However, he can not be tabbed as a mere pretender, to his heavyweight laurels. Even Charles will vouch for this, since he is the chap who suffered a knockout from Walcott's power punches m the seventh round of their last meeting. As for Charles, he is 32, young enough to regain his champion ship but hardly young enough to become a terror in the ring. Forced to bear the wrath of his fans because he could not match the standards of Louis, Charles was probably one of the most un popular champions in modern boxing history. Despite this unpopularity, Charles was a brilliant boxer, some thing the Brown Bomber was not But he simply could not over come the sparkling record Louis left. His chances of regaining the championship are about 50-50. Ordinarily they would be very remote, but the caliber of the heavyweight devision is at such a low ebb that almost anyone could win. Nor can Louis be left out of contention, thoueh for his own good he probably should be. He will be 33 in May, which gives him a slight advantage over Walcott. But the Brown Bomber has almost everything to lose and nothing to gain in his quest for the crown. Louis was considered the most colorful champion since the days when Jack Dempsey was bowling 'em over. He successfully de fended his title more times than any other heavyweight champ. and his punching prowess was phenomenal. In fact he may still be the best hitter among the present heavyweight crop. But the power still remaining in his arms is gone from his legs. During his recent fights, which be terms "exhibitions," Louis tired easily and had a difficult time maintaining; a steady pace. Among the present mediocre fighters, Louis may be able to regain his title, though the chances are very slim. But even if he does regain it so what? In the future some young gent will give him such a trouncmg that he will be punchy the rest of his life. But it is aparent that such a young fighter is not active at the present time. For even the fighters in their early 20's are not any great threats. Rex Layne is a fairly good hitter, but he lacks the finesse necessary for a real contender. In contrast to Layne, opening lineup against Penn. State at this time. He did, however, reveal the co captains for Saturday's tussle. They will be Frank Simon, senior end from Burchard, and "Moon" Mullen from Collensville, Pa. For the second day in a row contact work was at a mini mum. The only players receiv ing some of the rough treat ment were the defensive ends and offensive backs. The backs practiced pass pro tection while the defensive ends imitated the hard-charging Pete Janetos has disclosed that Roland LaStarza is a smooth fighter but no great shakes as a puncner. Among the also-rans in the heavyweight picture are Jimmy Bivins and Lee Savold, but neither one presents a serious hurdle to the hopes of an all-around fighter with youth on his side. Bivins has been rated a challenger for years, but he seems to be one of those fighters who never quite reaches championship proportions. And Savold never gets away from his beer long enough for one to analyze his ultimate potential, even though he claims to have reformed. It does not take a shrewd person to diagnose the heavyweight boxing situation. The only cure will be a crop of youngsters with dynamite in tneir lists ana nimoieness m ineir legs. the Husker passing attack will hinge on how well the Husker offensive backs have mastered their lessons. Getting their cracks at the task were halfbacks Bob Smith, Don Vogt, Dick Westin and Max Ken nedy. On the subject of Bobby Reyn olds, Glassford stated that the ail- American halfback would be missing from the lineup Satur day and that his appearance against the Minnesota Gophers is doubtful.
