JLJ By JIM COURTNEY Staff Sports Writer The All-Star Selections of the Intramural basketball class B fraternity have been completed find reflect the superior basketball ability of two fraternities especial ly. These are Alpha T a u T , , . , Omega and ; ' f Delta T a u telta. -T h e T a u s netted two berths on the first team selections as did the Delts but the ATO's also submitted member to courtesy Lincoln Journal the second Tom Olson five of the stellar players where as the Delts did not, proving their rightful domination of this years' intramural basketball leagues by the Taus. Heading the list of stellar selec tions on the first team is Lauris Whitehead of Phi Gamma Delta fraternity. The rangy eager for the Phi Gams led their B team consistently in the regular seal sons play. The respect command ed from his opposing teams by him was reflected in the all-opponent balloting which earned him a deserving position on the mythi cal cage squad. contributions to the The Delt's first team were Sam Hall and Sam Olson. These two hard court players earned their starting posi tions on the fantasy five by a su perior brand of basketball playing throughout the season. Excellent shooting and rebounding were fea tured in every game by these two Delt playmakers. Rounding out the first team, se lections are the two Alpha Tau Omega presentations, Terry True blood and Tom Olson. These two members sparked their team with regular consistency and added to the Tau's basketball prowess. Ter ry's outside shooting was 'good through the. whole of the season and did not slump at all while Tom's fleet footedness on the court made a perfect asset to the Tau's fast break type of game. On the second five of the All Star selections of the Nebraskan are five members from all dif-4 ferent fraternities. These, men were in very close contention for the first team berths but did not tally quite enough votes. This, however, does not mirror minor basketball ability, for these men ore as highly regarded players : S the first five by this office. The Beta Theta Pi offering to the second fiery five is Bill Wied man who keyed the Betas to a fine season finish in B team com petition. The Phi Delta Theta quintet placed one man on the second team although they placed two more of the starting five on Hon orable Mention. The man to re ceive the laurals. for this All-Star is Stu Howerter. The Delta Upsilon fraternity presented o n e man who estab lished himself in the ranks of the All-Stars. Their gift to the B team is George Fisk. The Alpha Tau Omega player who did not poll enough votes to be recognized on the first All-Star quintet, but surely ranks high in the basketball ability is Max White. To complete the second five standouts of fraternity B team play is the selection of Walt Blore of the Phi Gamma Delta team. This Fiji rated very high in the votes of opposing teams. The Honorable Mention selec tions of this year came from a gift ed group of individuals. Although these men are rated, many other fine players had to be excluded. On the Honorable Mention list are: John Patterson, Alpha Gam ma Rho; Al McClure, Delta Upsi lon; Bill Rittner, Sigma Phi Ep silon; Ken Winey, Phi Delta The ta; and Dick Jacobs, Phi Delta Theta. 4 ...

Roberts will be trying hard er than ever to win twenty ball games this season since he missed last season by one game. Possibly being overworked is past seasons is finally effecting him.

THURSDAY NIGHTS NO MINORS form he can move into the select group of pitchers with 200 or more big league wins. He now has 179. Simmons had a better mark last year after getting over the arm trouble that had been bothering him. The shrewd lefty posted a 15 mark. However, the 3.36 ERA made this look even better. Haddix was 13-8 with Philadelph and St. Louis. Most of the wins were with the Phils. The "kitten" struck out 170 batters. T Meyer worked mostly in relief. At 25 he should be ready for a better year and. may possibly get some starting assignments. Jack Sanford could easily be come the fourth starter. Sanford won his only assignment last sea son after retiming from the ser vice. His spring hurling has been very impressive. Granny Hamner is making a strong bid to become a regular hurler. The ex-shortstop had shown brass quite a bit of ability in the early games. Hamner has prob ably seen his last action at short stop where he was a star for sev eral years. Last season a injured shoulder slowed Hamner to a walk. He had a .224 batting mark. Jim Hearn, Saul Rogovin, Bob Miller, and Ron Negray also will be on hand. Dick Farrell, Angelo LePetri, and Tom Qualters may make the squad. Stan Lopata will do the catch ing when he isn't playing first base. Last season moving back and forth, the slugger hit .267, pound ing out 32 home runs, and driving in 95 . runs.' When Lopata plays firstjoe Lonnett and bonns baby MCK Burk will' share the receiv ing duty. Marv Blaylock, Ed Bouchee, and Lopata are all first base can didates. Lopata certainly is the best man but he also is the top receiver. Blaylock played there much of last season and hit only .254. Bouchee is up from Miami where he hit .294 with 94 RBI's. Ted Kazanski is again slated for duty at second base unless shifted to shortstop. Kazanski is another weak stick man. Right now Roy Smalley and Bobby Morgan are scrapping for the job at short. Hamner would have the spot if his shoulder were okay. W;llie Jones is back at third. He had a good year in '56 and should keep up the pace. Solly Hemus is around for utility work. Richie Ashburn is set for an other strong year in centerfield. The Tilden, Nebraska, athlete hit .303 last year, although, this was 10 points below his lifetime aver age. Rip Repulski, acquired during the winter from St. Louis, should help out in left field. Repulski started fast last season and was leading the league for the first month before he was hit on the wrist with a pitched ball. The injury sidelined him for well over a month. Glen Gorbous is making a strong bid for the right field berth. Gor bous has always been a light hitter but he has been leading the squad in training games. Old timer Elmer Valo, Frank Baumholtz and Rookie Bob Bow man also are on hand. Cotter Dives Gene Cotter exhibits his diving form in preparation for All Sports Day April 6. Both Cot ter and Bill Tagney will give Face Colorado A&M: All Sports Day Nearing; Sevigne Readies Crew Courtesy Lincoln Journal an exhibition at 5 p.m. along with the rest of Hollie Lepley's varsity swimmers.

Keith will be running the 100 and 220 yd. dashes, and the hur les for the squad. Another high point man for the Huskers should be Bob Elwood. He excelled in the. mile and two mile in every, meet indoors and figures to do equally well on the outside cinders. Knolly Barnes who turned in several sparkling times in the 880 during the indoor season will be the main Husker threat in that distance. Top men in the pole vault will be Ken Pollard and Don Blank. Pollard has reached a top height of 12'6" and should improve with age. He is only a Sophomore. Bill Hawkins, who finished sixth in the Pentathalon last year in the Big Seven Outdoors meet will be counted upon to add to the Husk ers totals with his versatility. Bill excells in the Broad jump where he finished third in the indoors meet and the hurdles. .
