The Lincoln team maintains a
"full working agreement" with the
Pittsburgh Pirates. The Lincoln
baseball Club, Inc., controls man
agement and finance of the team
while Pittsburgh furnishes player
material.
Headed by manager Bill Burwell,
recently "managerial consultant"
for the Pirate syitem under
Branch Rickey, the Chiefs are cur
rently -in third place having hit a
slump in recent weeks. Four new
players are expected to boost the
team's prospect for a 1955 League
Championship.
Listed on the Lincoln roster is
Bob Reynolds, University grid All

field and infield spots. Reynolds
played a lot of baseball at .second

League Include Des' Moines, Sioux
City, Pueblo, Wichita and Colorado
Springs. There is currently a pos
sibility of adding two more teams

The business of the Lincoln team
is headed by -General Manager Dick
Wagner, a native of Central City.
Wagner's wife attended the Uni
versity. Wagner said that students and
faculty from the University are
always most welcome at Sherman
Field. The Chiefs, he said, are
one of Nebraska's two professional
baseball teams.
Wagner mentioned several stand
out players that could bear watch
ing including Dick Hall, pitcher-
outfielder who is batting .313 and
has won ten games and lost five;
Outfielder Frank Rice, a native
of Fairbury who is currently hitting
the ball at a .301 clip, and Ted Ad

who has accumulated a .310 bat

Hall is on "quick call" to the
parent club and can be called
up any time by the Pirates and be
playing in 24 hours for the Na
tional League team.
Rickey and other members of the
Piratesy staff have made several
visits to Lincoln to see the young
pitcher in action.

A young man took his city-bred
girl friend into a night club which
was decorated elaborately in cow
boy style.
They were there a short time
when the girl arose and excused
herself to go and have her face
made-up.
She returned a moment later,
her countenance a blushing red.
"Ted," she said "youH have to
help me. Am I a heifer or a
steer?"
