Delta Tau Delta continued its
iriant-killing role in the intramur
al softball Friday night as it top
f pled Alpha Tau Omega in the fra
ternity division semi-finals. The
Taus rode into the semis, favored
to advance to the finals, rode into
a buzzsaw instead and wound up
on the short end of a 11-6 geore.
As in most of the Tau games
this year, it was the bases on
balls instead of the bits that
played a major part in the vic
tory. Dick Watson, A TO hurler,
kept himself in hot water
throughout the contest by pass
sing nine men. He rot poor
backing- from his mates, also, as
they committeed five errors be
hind him.
The Dclts grabbed a 1-0 lead
n the first frame on a hit-batsman,
a walk and a single by Keith
Skalla. Two more runs in the
second inning on three walks and
two singles boosted the Delt up
set prospects.'
One run in the third and two in
the fourth gave the Taus a mo
ment of sunshine and kept the
losers on even terms with the
Dclts for the last time.
A total of 11 men came to the
plate for the Dclts in the fifth
innlnps and five big runs crossed
home, more than enough for the
Victory. Only one base hit was
produced in this rally, a single
by George Karanatsos that
drove in the last two runs. Five
men reached first on walks and
two li'ed on Tau errors.
Three more tallies were regis
tered for the winners in the final
inning on singles by Skalla and
Max Kennedy and two walks and
an oror.
Pitcher Keith Skalla of the Dclts
limited the Taus to four hits, three
coming in the fifth inning when
the ATO's scored twice. Cotter.
Bailey, Kunes and Watson garn-l
ered the four Tau hits. Skalla and
Karabatsos led the victors in hit
ting with two apiece while Ken
nedy, Paulson and Yeager gar
nered the other safeties.
The Ag Men's Club took ad
vantage of three costly Lutheran
errors to advance to the Inde
pendent finals by dropping the
Lutheran Student Association
by a 3-1 count.
Without these three miscues, it
is altogether possible that the Lu
therans would be the Independent
favorite instead of the Aggies.
With the Lutherans leading 1-0
In the last of the second inning,
Aggie second-baseman Yamate
drew a walk. On the next pitch,
he streaked toward second. Catch
er, Bernie Wallman of the LSA'ers
heaved the ball into center field
and Yamate headed for third. Lu
theran center-fielder, Bill Luther,
ran down the wild throw and fired
the ball into the plate just as
Yamate rounded third. Halfway to
home, it was apparent to Yamate
that he couldn't make it and
started back to third. Wallman un
corked another wildy, this time
over the third-baseman's head and
the Aggie baserunner trotted
home with the tie pointer.
In the third inning it was
more of the same for the jumpy
Lutherans. Aggie second-baseman
Yamate led off with a walk
and advanced to second on Nie
meier's single, the first hit of the
game for the Ag Men. The next
two men flew out with the base
runners advancing accordingly,
but another toss into the plate
by center-fielder, Luther got
away from the catcher and both
runners tallied.
Dennie Saugstad, on the
mound for the Lutherans, limited
the Ag men to three harmless
singles, but the Aggie didn't need
hits. Saughstad struck out six and
walked two.
Rich Jiskra, hurling for the Ag
gies, allowed the losers but five
hits. Three of them came in the
first inning as the Lutherans
grabbed their only run. From that
pont on, Jiskra was master. He
struck out four and walked two.
Niemer led tbe hitters at the
plate during the contest as the
Aggie center-fielder got two for
three. Van Vleck garnered the
other Ag Men safety. Ned
Luther, Bob Mortvedt, Wall
man, Glen Johnson and Saugh
stad got the five Lutheran hits.
In perhaps the best game of
the day Friday, Beta Sigma Psi
tripped Acacia in a thrilling 2-1
game. In a real old-fashioned
pitcher's duel, Beta Sig Spike
Dannehi bested Acacia's John
Ewing.
Dannehi limited the Masons to
four hits, two of them in the fifth
inning when Acacia got their lone
run. He struck out nine batters
and walked none, Ewing was
touched for six hits, three corn
ing in the third inning when the
Beta Sigs tallied twice.
The winners were retired in
order In the first, second and
fourth frames while the Aca
eians went down one-two-three -In
every Inning except the third
and fifth.
Kroller and Pearson led the
victors at the plate with two hits
while Eggert and Andreason each
got one. Harlan got half of the
losers' safeties with two while
Brydl and Chuck Miner were re
sponsible for the other two.
Delta Sigma Pi and the Baptist
student House hooked up in a
wild game with the Delta Pi's
gaining the Independent finals on
the strength of a 11-4 victory.
Five runs in the first inning
were all that were needed by
the winners. Four walks, an
error and two hits, Including a
three-run homer by Fhil Rie
land gave the Delta Ti's the
The Baptists came back strong
in the third inning with three
tallies on two walks and three
hits, but the winners added single'
runs in the third and fourth
frames and then tore the game
wide open in the sixth with four
big counters.
Eollie Haas, winning pitcher.
kept control of the game through
out, allowing six hits while strik
ing out eight. Baptist hurler, Dick
Hunt, was reached for 11 safeties
while striking out three.
Ken Neff, Rieland, Cecil Voils

to lead the winning attack. Bob
Almen and Ken Ericson each
pounded out two for the Baptists.

Many familiar faces who have dotted the roster of Nebraska's
athletic teams will be bidding farewell as they journey into the
great beyond of the military services.
We'll be missing the football play of Dick Regier, Joe Ponselgo
and Wavne Handshy of the gridiron.
FA Tjnc who received comrartivelv little recognition for his
fine wrestling record, will no longer be pulling his grappling tricks
on the mat
Golfers bidding farewell this year are Doug
Dale. Joe Gifford. Dick Spangler, Al Blessing and
Jack Heckenlively. These men have done much to
raise the standards of golf play at Nebraska and
are going all-out to win the conference meet at
Norman, Okia., May 16 and 17.
Bobby Yarwood and Paul Hughes will retire
with their "N" blankets for their service with the
gymnastic team. The blankets are given to ath
letes who have lettered for three years.
Coach Ed Weir will be losing some of his big
gest point-getters this May when Sheldon Jacobs,
Gene Yelkin, Bob Sand, Don Bedker, Lc Moore,
Darrel Moreland and Bucle Balderston will be
graduated. Balderston is also the only graduating
senior on the swunming team.
Jim Buchanan's team fire and spirit on the basketball floor will
be left to a young bunch of hustlers who have inherited Bucky's
great team spirit Bud Ward will also bid adieu to his basketball
career,
Four seniors will be lost to Coach Tony Sharpe's Nebraska base
ball team. Bob Diers, Gerald Dunn. Milt Frei and Ray Mladovich
will lay their bats down after keeping the Nebraska colors high atop
the Big aeven baseball standings.
From the sports desk of the Daily Nebraskan and the great stu
dent body of the University, we thank you all for efforts in bringing
athletic prominence and good sportsmanship to the Cornhusker insti
tution. Now is the time of year that the sports editor sends his appreci

Thanks to J. "Woody" Woodward for all his time spent on help
ing us make up the Big Seven indoor form chart and for gathering
much essential data for us.

have done much to give you students all the athletic happenings.
Thanks Glenn Nelson (the able assistant sports scribe), Ron Gib
son, Ed Berg, Bill MundelL Bobby Decker, Doug Wilcox and Arley
Bondarin. We love ya all , . .

Coach Tony Sharpe's hopes to
annex a third Big Seven baseball
title in as many consecutive even
years folded Monday when his
Husker squad lost a 6-5 battle
with league leading Missouri.
Umpire Bud Birt waved Mis
souri pitcher Bob Boenker home
from third base with the win
ning Tiger run in the last half
of the ninth inning to break a
five-all tie. .This gave Missouri
a win in the first game of a two
game series with the Corn
huskers. Birt claimed that Nebraska
piacher Bob Kremke balked, auto
matically allowing the winning
MU run to score. The decision
brought forth an argument which
went on into the night.
The Tigers, trailing most of.
the game, had staged a three-,
run splurge to take a 5-3 lead
in the eighth. The Scarlet knot
led the rount in their half of
the ninnth with a two-run ef
fort Boenker, Missouri's fourth
pitcher to se eaction, singled with
one out in the ninth inning. He
stole second, raced to third on
Dick Dickinson's roller which be
came jin infield hit
The Huskers then staged a
trick play in an effort to catch

Kremke faked a throw to third,
and then threw to first
Umpire Birt called it a balk, ex
plaining that Kremke had failed
to take his foot off the rubber on

Kremke was the losing pitcher for
the game, and Boenker was the
winner.
Bob Reynolds led Nebraska's
batsmen with two hits in four
trips to the plate. He drove in

The win left Missouri well out
in front of the conference pen
nant race with ten wins and a
single loss.
The Kansas Jayhawks, whe
strengthened (heir second plaea
position Monday by downing
cellar team Kansas State -7 at
Manhattan, are still in the run
ning and eould possibly capture
the crown, . .
The Jays now possess a 7-2 re
cord, and have a chance, to hand
the Tigers a pair of losses on May
19 and 20 when the two clubs
meet for a two-game series at
Columbia. Kansas, boasting a
well respected pitching staff,
might be the team capable of set
ing the Tigers down.
Three games remain on the
-ornhusker schedule. The Husk
rs play the league leading Tigers
gain Tuesday, and close their
?ason with a two-game series
ith the University of Colorado
n Lincoln on Friday and Satur-
ay.
The Buffs are currently In
fourth place in the conference
standings with a 4-4 record, and
have hopes of moving into third
position after the series with
Nebraska.
Ray Novak or Pat Mallette will
probably be called upon to carry
the mound duties against the Ti
gers Tuesday.

Nebraska's spring athletic teams
will be finishing their sport slates
this week.
Much of the activity will be
taking place at Norman, Okla.,
where the Big Seven conference
meets in track, golf and tennis
will be held.
Local sports prognosticators
have picked the Husker trackmen
to in a three-way battle for third
place in the cinder meet. Kansas
has been picked the favorite; Kan
sas State the runner-up; and Ne
braska, Oklahoma and Colorado
in the fight for third place.

Don "Moose" Cooper got off his
best vault since his graduation

14-9 inches to tie for first place
honors in that event in the West

Cooper tied rival Reverend Bob
Richards for the blue ribbon for
the first time. Cooper is now af
filiated with the Los Angeles Ath
letic club.
The Nebraska golfers have
taken two setbacks In the confer
ence, hrth by slight margins, and
are hoped to bring home top links
honors. Iowa State and Kansas
dropped Nebraska by less than
three point margins during the
season.
The Nebraska tennis team
picked up its first two victories
of the year when they topped the
University of Missouri and Iowa
State in a triangular meet at
Ames, la., last Saturday.

keep their conference title hopes
alive and praying that the Mis
souri Tigers and Kansas Jayhawks
split their twin bill this weekend.
If the Tigers win both, Ne
braska's chances for winning the
crown are gone; if the Sunflower
diamondmen win both, Nebraska's
chances are gone. The only way
the Huskers can win the title is
for the Tigers and Hawkers to

a thorough test of cigarette mildness. Millions
of smokers throughout America concur.
Iff the sensible test... the 30-Day Camel
Mildness Test, which simply asks you to try
Camels as your steady smoke on a day-after-day,

Once you've tried Camels in your "T-Zone" (Tfor
