Whitehead Most Valuable
, 'I

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

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.

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.

The eighth annual All-Sports day
will offer as one of its features
the revamped track squad coached
by Frank Sevigne. The Husker cin
dermen will take on Colorado
A&M at 12 Noon on the Memorial
Stadium track for their first home
outside track meet of the season.
Keith Gardner, the Jamaican
Jet, will be trying to equal his
win record of the indoor track
season when he won every race in
the four dual meets, totaling
twelve in all, and was high point
man in the Big Seen meet, tak
ing a first and two seconds.
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

he finished third in the indoors
meet and the hurdles. .
