1 t rfdoy, Moy 25, 1956 THE NEBRASKA Pog 7 ! ""From Tho Sports Desk llreifs Horner By MAX KREITMAN I Sports Editor flale time . . . . "Father Time waits for no one", goes the saying and we quickly d the year drawing to an end here at Nebraska. Athletically wise, .the term hasn't been outstanding, but Indications how that things could look bright for the future, t On the football scene, the Cornhusker eleven onct again rode into I. ' second place, bowing only to the mighty Oklahoma Sooners. I Coach Bill Glassford, who bowed out of the football scene at the end of the last campaign, led his charges to victories over Kansas : State, Kansas, Missouri, Colorado and Iowa State in the conference. . The Huskers dropped contests to Hawaii, Pittsburg, Ohio State and Texs A&M. When you consider the strength of the Pitt, OS and Texas ball clubs, ! the season wasn't as bad as the 5-5 mark may indicate. V To the new head coach, Pete Elliott and his able-bodied aides, we wish you the best of luck. We feel that this could be a year that the Huskers could go all the way. Coach Jerry Bush found the going a little rougher as his basketball crew fell to sixth place. However, the picture isn't as bad as it may seem, for Bush was plagued .with a young and inexperienced squad. With Rex Ekwall, t Jim Kubacki, Gary Reimers, Don Smidt, Jim Arwood, Jim Thorn and a host of good freshmen returning, Bush's five could ones again be challengers for the Big 7 crown. ? Coach Hollie Lepley's swimming crew produced one champion In the person of diver Gene Cotter. The tankmen had one of their best f seasons last year, with only one senior on the squad. The grappling crew had their ups and downs, but senior Arnie Morton carried the Husker hopes up to the final rounds before bowing out. But next year could be better with wrestlers Marshall Kelson, Dan Brand and other veterans returning. f However, Coach Frank Sevigne may be able to put the crying towel away for next year. f With Freshmen Keith Gardner and Bennie Dfllard, plus sopho mores like Bill Marten, Bill Hawkins, Don Ficke, Bernie Randolph, Bob Elwood and others, the Nebraska thinclads could very well make j an excellent showing for next year. Hat's off . . . ? To the various coaches good luck ... To Pete Eliott ... here's hope for a trip to the Orange Bowl . , . To Jerry Bush . . here's looking for you at the NCAA finals in March. To Frank Sevigne . . . here's hoping for nothing but records from ' your thinclads. To Tony Sharp ... that Big 7 title isnt far off. To Hollie Lepley ... let's, hope more tankers follow Cotter to the winners circle. t To Ed Higgenbotham . . . Fisk and Weaver are next in line. To BUI Orwlg ... here's hoping that you keep the fine crop of athletes rolling into NU. To Joha Bently ... here's hoping for better weather next All- Iports Day. To my staff of Bob Martel, Bob Win, Walt Blore and George Moyer . . just thanks. 6CC. I WISH I HAD THE DOUGH TQ6ET ME A SWELL house: like yours, Tqaa,donT WfSH.

Greenlaw To Hurl: A By BOB MARTEL Sports Staff Writer , The University of Nebraska base ball squad will end its season with a two game series against Iowa State at Ames, Iowa. The Huskers and Cyclones will tangle this after noon and tomorrow afternoon in contests that could determine a conference championship. Colorsdo will invade Oklahoma at the same time to see what it can do to open the doors to the title for Iowa State, Nebraska or Missouri. No matter what hapepns in the series at Ames, the key to the whole championship picture takes place at Norman. Oklahoma must sweep the series to eliminate any challengers. Iowa State or Ne braska must have a sweep of its series to be able to take advantage of a pair of Sooner losses. Missouri must have a double Sooner loss and a split in the Iowa State-Nebraska series to get a title share after its double loss to Kansas. But neither Iowa State nor Ne braska will be paying any attention to other game results at 3:30 today when the series opens in Ames. No matter what happens at Norman there is still a mighty big chore for either team. Iowa State and Nebraska, shar ing 6-4 records in third, will face good pitching and good hitting on both sides in this 1956 finale. Iowa State cut loose for 19 hits against Oklahoma last Saturday. The Huskers have the same type of hit ting along with the best corps of left-handed pitching in the loop. Dick Geier and Willie Greenlaw will probably be assigned the chore of stopping the Cyclone attack. Coach Tony Sharpe is pinning his attack hopes on steady Don Brown, Larry Lewis, Al Karle, Norm Coufal and Rex Ekwall. All have been hitting the ball well lately with Brown currently lead ing the club with a .411 batting average. Playing in their last regularly scheduled game in a Nebraska uni form will be Marv Arensdorf of North Platte, Don Brown of Omaha, Norm Coufal of David City, Dick Geier of Lincoln and Gene Welch of Omaha.

Track, Golf, Tennis: Snrinn Mhlsik Snnnik Finhh Snnnn By BOB WIRZ Sports Staff Writer Last week end the Big Seven conference held their final meets of the year in track, tennis, and golf at Manhattan, Kansas. So this ended the dismal season of the Cornhuskers in these sports. But yet the heavy use of under classmen makes the outlook for the future look brighter. In track the Nebraska squad finished last in the conference. Their best effort was by Larry Smith of South Sioux City but the outlook is brighter for the future with such freshmen as Keith Gard ner, Bennie Dillard, Knolly Barnes, Charles Wollaston, Richard Jahr, and many others expected to show next year when they become elig ible for varsity competition. Also Bill Hawkins, Mill Marten and Don WEDDING STATIONERY Large Selection GOLDENOOD 215. North. 14 Ficke, sophomores on the present squad, will be back. In tennis the Huskers again fin shed last in the conference but the showing of underclassmen, namely Art Weaver and George Fisk make the outlook in this sport bright for 1957. The golf team at Nebraska fared some better as they finished fifth in the conference meet and Gary Butterfield placed fourth among the individuals. Nels Jensen and the Moore Brothers also, Were steady competitors for Jerry Bush's crew. The golf team like the track and tennis clubs will welcome letter men back to the fold next sea son. This should bring added life to the Cornhusker athletic picture and the hope of champions in these sports as well as the fall and winter soorU which finished thir seasons several months ago.
