Two Games Today:
Huskers Bow To Kansas 8-2;
Knocked Out Of Title Picture
By STAN- WIDMAX
Staff Sports Writer
Nebraska's faint hopes of win
ning the Big-Seven baseball title
became even fainter as they ab
sorbed an 8-2- shellacking at the
hands of Kansas in .the first of a
three game series being held in
Lawrence.
Any combination of an Iowa
State victory or a Husker defeat
will eliminate the team from any
chance at the crown.
Kansas pitching ace, Bob Wiley
scattered five hits for his fifth win
of the season as opposed to one
loss. Only an unearned run in the
first inning and a solo homer by
Frank Nappi in the third kept the
game from being a shutout.
The Huskies were ahead 2-0
when the Jayhawks erupted for
three runs in the third off starter
Charlie Ziegenbein. Catcher Barry
Donaldson's home run was the big
blow in that inning. One more run
by Kansas in the fourth sent Zieg
enbein to the showers, with the
core 4-2 in favor of the Jayhawks.
The sixth inning brought the fi
nal disaster as four Kansans
crossed the plate. Trombold led
the way with a bases loaded triple
for three of the runs. All four runs
were chalked against reliefer Bob
Gleason.
Wiley pitched a masterful game
In keeping the five hits well apart.
He was helped by good fielding
support after" the first inning and
was never in any danger. He had
no trouble getting any help from
his mates at bat as Donaldson and
Trombold both blasted two hits
piece., while the team poked
even.
Frank Nappi and Gary Reimers
of the Huskers were both able to
touch Wiley for two hits. Team
mate Milan Shaw got the other
hit, a triple.
The loss left the Huskers with
an 8-7 record, good enough to hold
onto fourth place behind Iowa
State, Missouri and Oklahoma.
There only chance is the possibility
of Iowa State lossing its next three
games which doesn't seem likely
as the Cyclones are traveling to
Boulder to play the cellar dwelling
Buffaloes.
The Kansas victory was their
first in the last five games. Their
last series with Iowa State which
they lost all three completely elimi
nated them from contention. The
win brought them to within one
game of .500 having a record of
7-8
Missouri 9-5: and Oklahoma, 7-5,
still have a chance at the title but
will probably kill each other off in
their coming series against each
other.
The Huskers will play two more
games today to round out their
season. They will have to wait un
til the weekend before Iowa State
meets Colorado to decide the Big
Seven title.
Chiefs Lucky:
Rains Hurt Baseball;
Colorado Springs Hit
An unusual amount of spring
rain all over the country has been
hurting baseball more than help
ing it.
Fans don't want to go out to the
park if it looks like there is any
possibility of a shower. Conse
quently the teams must play
double-headers and this cuts down
on the amount of times that peo
ple go through the gates.
The Western league is a good
example of this although it prob
ably hasn't suffered any more than
some other leagues.
Colorado Springs, who moved
into Lincoln last night, has been
hit hardest. The Sky Sox have al-
rady had 11 contests postponed
this year. Eight of the dates have
been at home and have put the Sox
in a definite financial hole.
The town people were forced to
take up a collection which amount
ed to the thousands to keep the
club in town.
Amarillo is next in line in the
Western circuit. They have missed
eight contests in the first month
of play. Pueblo cancelled six. con
tests and Lincoln four.
The Chiefs have missed only
one home contest and that wag
last Monday night when their
game with Sioux City was can
celled. Des Moines, Albuquerque, and
Sioux City like the Chiefs have
missed only one home date.
Topeka have only been rained
out twice this season and both of
these games were on the road.
The Hawks also are the leagues
l-M Softball Delayed
Because of rainy skies, the I-M
Softball program has been pushed
head another day. If everything
goes ok the 1937 Softball tourney
should be over by tomorrow.
The Delta Upsilon-Hitchcock
House battle was held over to last
night. Score on that game is not
yet in but the winner will tangle
with Independent champion Den
tal College for the All-University
crown. That will be tomorrow
night on the Ag campus diamond
and will begin at 5:20.
Bowmaster
Northeast
Possibility
Grapevine has it that four east
ern Nebraska coaches are in line
for the football coaching vacancy
at Northeast high school.
Those being mentioned in con
nection with the job are Hank
Reichel, Beatrice; Art Ronhovde,
Fremont; Garry Ftrguson, Fair
bury; and Ralph Bowmaster, Sew
ard. Northeast superintendent Steven
N. Watkins announced Monday his
plans to find a replacement some
time this week for Bun Galloway,
who was shifted to intramural di
rector at the school.
Interviews have been completed
leaving these four men in promi
nent positions.
Bowmaster is said to have the
inside rail.
leading team.
In all twenty-two games have
been cancelled and the first month
of the season isn't over with yet.
It looks like the managers of these
clubs had better carry more
pitchers than usual in 1957 and
just hope for the best because
when those twinbills start piling up
it will be rough.

Hergenrader to Red Sox farm club ...
Richard "Yogi" Hergenrader, young Lincolnite who attended the
University as a freshman last semester has been playing ball for the
Boston Red Sox farm club in Corning, New York. Yogi is planning to
return to the University during the first semester months and playing
ball for the Red Sox system during the second semester duration and
the summer months.
Yogi, who prepped at Lincoln High and played ball for Lincoln,
last summer spent his time with the Rookie League in Nebraska. He
anchored the second sack for the Lexington Red Sox and clubbed the
horsehide at approximately a .300 clip. He has been rated by mauy
coaches of that league as one of the finest prospects to come from
a Nebraska high school.
Dick is a freshman in Teachers College and a member of Sigma
Na social fraternity.
Sports In courts again ...
The world of sports has again entered into court action through
accusations of the government.
The government, represented by William Elkins, the Department
of Justice trial attorney, has given a proposal that the IBC, the Inter
national Boxing Club, be disbanded for reasons of guilt already proven
of a monopoly in the promotion of championship fights.
The Federal District Judge in charge, Sylvester Ryan, is now
hearing both sides of the arguments in an attempt to inflict a fair
penalty on the Club for its recent guilt.
The government wants to entirely disband the association in order
that no one else be able to continue the illegaj activities of monopoliz
ing boxing. '
The IBC, on the other hand, under control of Jim Norris and Arthur
Wirt has a J2.000.000 investment in the Madison Square Garden which
they are trying to protect. These two have threatened to get com
pletely out of the boxing business rather than surrender their control
to a trusteeship as proposed by Judge Ryan.
The government has made two proposals, both of which Ryan turns
coldishoulder to. These are: ,
1. That all persons who hold stock in the Garden to surrender their
tock to the open market within six months.
Ryan insists that this would not be fair because other members
rather than thoe in contention for punitive action would also be hurt
in completion of this process.
2. That the Wednesday night fights be promoted by a Mid-western
group and the Friday night fights be handled by an Eastern outfit.
This statement was rebuked by Ryan because of its irrelativity to
trie direct question at hand.
Today will feature ex-champ Gene Tunney as a defense witness in
tht controversial question.

Siyl have appreciated writing for this publication very much.
No more for this season can I expect to go skipping to the Coliseum
through the freezing weather to watch a basketball game or stumble

a football game. ' j
Gone will be the time slipping through the Physical Education door
In hopes to ask Mr. Higgenbotham a question but only to exit with a
tongue lashing and a stinging rebuke from the jolly old fellow for not
giving enough space to intramurals.

the sun and enjoying the plensures of summer loafin? ... I depart

The final "star of the Week"
award will go not to one athlete
but three Husker stars will re
ceive the award. Two baseball
players and a track sprinter have
been chosen for their work over
the past week end,
Dick Jahr is being featured for
his outstanding work in the Big
Seven track meet and pitchers
Charley Ziegenbein and Dwight
Sieberl will receive awards for
their work against Oklahoma.
Jahr was really the lad that
scored the most pleasant surprise
in the Husker third place finish
in the Lincoln meet. He finished
only twelve points for the test,
trailing only Keith Gardner on the
Husker chart.
The Hillsboro, North Dakota,
speedster, placed second in the
220-yard dash to pick up eight im
portant points and then added a
fourth in the 100 for four more.
A flashy sophomore, Jahr has
alway sbeen a hard worker. He
was one of the main scorers
throughtout the outdoor season.
Very small, Jahr stands only 5
foot eight inches and weighs in
around 152 pounds, he will be
counted heavily upon in the next
two years.
Jahr runs better outdoors than
inside. During the indoor season he
was able to run only the 60-yard
dash and once in a while the 440
because of an injury. This slowed
him considerably but his perform
ances outdoors gradually improved
until last week when he hit a peak.
The twelve points by Jahr boosted
Nebraska from what looked like
a fourth place finish at the best
to third spot one half point
ahead of a strong Missouri cinder I
squad, I
Ziegenbein and Siebier both had j
outstanding pitching performances ;
over the week end and both of ;
them still lost because of errors, j
Ziegenbein has been very effec-l
tive all season in compiling a 3-2 j
won-lost record. His only defeat
previous to last Friday was a 5-0
setback at the harK'.s of Iowa
States the present conference lead
er. On that fateful afternoon rhe
Cyclones were aided by eight Ne
braska errors. This time six er
rors spelled the difference as Char
ley gave up but two hits and one
earned run.
The W'isner Junior also scored
the tying run in the seventh frame
after he doubled. Ziegenbein col

noon as did the entire Soooner
club.
The only time this year that
Ziggy has been' hit hard was at
Missouri when he gave up six
earned runs. However, he batted
three for three and the Huskers
won 8-6 with one big inning.
Ziegenbein aU will be on hand
next year for another try with the
Huskers.
Siebier had probably the most
brilliant' effort of the year by a
Husker. It went by the wayside
as his own error meant a 1-0 de
feat in the seven inning opener
of a Saturday double-header.
The Omaha sophomore hurled a
no-hitter, at the Oklahoma batters
but Nebraska couldn't get any
runs so it was another costly de
feat. Siebier struck out nine Soon
ers in the seven innings that he
worked and the opponent hit the
ball hard on only a very few oc
casions. Thus Siebier suffered his first

Calypso fashions have hit the
nation and Gold's have the
outfit for you:
These gay colored outfits
have many different parts to
them. They include slacks,
bermudas, shorts, skirts and
bright colored tops.
Pictured here are the peddle
pusher length pants and
perky top. The pants are scal
loped at the bottom where
they taper .down for leg flat
tery. The waist line is quite
high and meets the short top.
The sash is of bright colors
and goes through brass rings
to tie in the front or side. The
colors of the sash match the
top. These strips are of var
ious widths and are of bright
Calypso colors. Black binding
accents the fluttering square
neck of the top. The fluffy
fringe overlaps the high waist
line of the peddle-pusher
pants to make a complete
outfit.

straight wins. He has been a val
uable asset to Tony Sharpe's dia
mond crew this spring taking up
much of the slack lost wfien Wil

Siebier possesses fair control, a
live fast ball, " and an excellent
curve the three things necessary
to become a good college pitcher.
After the Saturday performance
it appears that he could have a
brilliant career ahead in baseball.
Like Jahr. Siebier, will be

These boys are very deserving
of the "Star of the Week" award
and the Daily Nebraskan Sports
staff wishes to congratulate them
on their outstanding performances.

Tournament honors during the past year have been fairly weU
spread out among the organized houses with one exception. Alpha XI
Delta has taken first place in four tournaments and was runner up in
one other. This means that of the 12 tournaments sponsored by WAA
this year, Alpha Xi's have come in first or second in 50 percent.
Way, way, way back at the beginning of the year women's intra
murals got underway with the soccer-baseball tourney. Kappa Alpha
Theta came in first in this first tournament of the year. Ri!nner up
were the Kappai Delta's. Shari Sullivan proved to be best of the arch
ers in the archery tournament. Janice Roth was second. Semi-finalists
included Delores Wertz, Jan Lichtenberger, Sally Lasse and
Carol Anderson.
A Delta Gamma duo composed of Judy Anderson and Elaine
Unterseher won top honors in tennis doubles competition. Css Lons
brough and Janet Lindstrand of Gamma Phi Beta came In second.
Kappa Kappa Gamma freshman went to first place in Frosh Soccer.
Alpha Xi Delta was second.
Nebraska Ball ...
Nebraska's own game, which is just like volleyball except for
having a'much larger ball, is Nebraska Ball. The tournament was won
by the Alpha Xi's. Kappa Delta came in second. The-same Alpha Xi
first, Kappa Delta second, combination held true in the volleyball
tourney. Competition on the duckpin alleys again saw the Alpha Xi's
taking first honors. This time the Tri Delts were second.
Margaret Hook won the elimination tournament in bowling. Run
ner tip was Marilyn Deister. Janie Simmons end Pat Tesar went as
far as the semi-finals. In December, when WAA holds their swim meet,
best aquatics turned out to be the Kappa Kappa Gamma's. Kappa
Alpha Theta came in second.
Once a year, the Co-Recreational VolleyDall tournament gives
coeds a chance to invite a men's house to coripete with them. Winner
of this years Co-Rec tourney was a successful Alpha Xi Delta-Sigma
Chi combinatiori. An Alpha Omicron Pi-Sigma Phi Epsilon coalition
captured the second place position.
Weather Slows Play ...
Bad weather has stalled spring tournaments until WAA officers
are worried about getting everything finished. Table tennis was fin
ished successfully with Jean Curnes taking first place and Sally Laase
winning second. Alpha Xi Delta's final win over runnerup's Kappa
Delta gave them first place in basketball.
Baseball is in the semi-final rounds. Kappa Kappa Gamma, Girl's
dorm, Kappa Delta and Alpha Xi Delta are still in the running. Bad
minton has also floundered because of the unusual amount of mud this
spring. Still in competition are Elizabeth Schaffer, Cynthia Wilcox,
Judy Snell, Carol Morehead, Sandra Kadlacek, Roberta Welch, Donna
Sawvell, Arlene Hrbek, Sonia Sievers, and Janis Crist.
Golf Tournament . . .
Today is the second day of the Hole-In-One Golf Tournament which
is open to both men and women. It is being held on the women's
athletic field, corner of 14th and Avery Street. Object of the compe
tition is to make the best shot possible toward a target 125 yards
from the tee.
June 14-15:
