on a long home run which cleared
the right field fence.
Until Greenlaw's appearance,
the contest was a pitcher's duel
spotted with sloppy fielding which
had knotted the score at 2-2.
Nebraska drew first blood in
the fourth when second baseman Al
Karle led off with a solid single
to right and was moved to second
on a sacrifice bunt by Gary Reira
ers. Karle went to third when Don
Brown's ground ball was mishan
dled and scored on Larry Lewis'
long double to right.
The Cornhuskers were handed
a gift run in the third when Rob-

allowing the Hasker first baseman
to reach second. Then on the next
play RobitaiHe mishandled Jim
Kanes bounding ball allowing Bes

Greenlaw came on to pitch in
the seventh and set the airmen
down in order. In the last half of
the mningj Greenlaw homered to
end the scaring.
Offutt hurler Ross Jensen was
in hot water throughout the contest
dne to poor support. Outside of
the gopher ball served up to
Greenlaw, Jensen did a fine job.
He struck out two, allowed only
five hits and didn't walk a man.

Cornhusker track boosters may soon realize their dream of a
Big Seven track championship in the next couple of years if two
outstanding state prepsters continue at their present pace.
Larry Fisher, the Beatrice strong boy, fcrew the shot SS-W
last Fridv to elirse the state mark of 55-S. He also bettered his
own mark of SM' set earlier this
WhDe Fisher is rearming
events, another senior, Jerry Collier
lines in the high jump. The 6-2 toilier is me same one oo km wj
Falls City five to the State A crown in basketball.
Couple these two boys wtih the fames of Keith Gardner, Don
Fike, Bob Elwood, BE1 Hawkins, Bill Marten and others and coach
Frank Sevigne could realize his hopes of a Big 7 crown.
While on the subject of track, Australian's John Landy was upset
in the mDe run at the Los Angeles Coliseum by a fellow countryman,
Jim Bailey, now a student at the University of Oregon.
Landy brought the mDe borne in the time of 3:58.3, but this was
not good enough to down the younger BaDey, who broke the tape ia
the time of 3:58.6.
litre and more the United States' top miler, Wes Santee, Is
falling i the background. Since the AAU put the tix" sign n
him, the Kansas antelope has had little competition.
However, I can help but think of the fine race it could have
been between the record-holder, Landy, and the "great pretender,'
Santee.
Both m2ers run on exactly the same lines. They lie to save
their best for last. Landy did that last Saturday, only to find Ba2y
stronger t the end.
I feelv safe in saying this, if Santee would have been catered
the race, be too would have broken the Cyawn) four-minute mile. As
it stands now, Wes will just have to go on talking about how etas.
be came (4:00.6) to breaking fee
Alone varsity track lines, Larry Smith and Leonard Rosen art
constantly winning for the Huskers
However, Rosen, in winning the shot, w21 probably never make
any noise in the Big 7 meet. His 48-foot toss in the Iowa State tri
angular is only a dot compared to the mighty heaves of Kansas B3I
Nieder, who has tossed the 16-pound ball over the 60-foot mark.
However, a warning to Big 7 track mentors, WATCH OUT FO
NEBRASKA IN 1958.
So long for a while ...
On the Nebraska athletic scene, only eighteen seniors leave the
Husker spring sports picture.
Of this list, baseball loses five. They are Karv Arensdorf, Don
Brown, Norm Coufal, Richard Geier, Gene Welch. Welch has yet
to see action.
The Husker thinclads contribute ten to this list. They Include,
Bob Anderson, Merle Brestle, Charles Gibson, Hugh Osmera, Ken
Reiners, Leonard Rosen, Charles Smith and Carl Vondra. Smith
and Vondra haveseen no action this spring. Another senior. Jon
McWIIliams, was declared ineligible when be signed a pro footbal
contract.
Only Jack Moore losed his eligibility from fee golf team and
John Moran and Al Grove from the tennis finish up this year irom
the tennis squad.

On the brighter side of fee picture, thirty-one sophomores esterea
