Maxey Ex Robertson Mate
' Easy Al Hopes To Do As Well
By Ken Pocras
Sports Staff Writer
If you have been following
the nation's basketball scor
ing leaders this season, you
have probably noticed the
name of Oscar Robertson.
Robertson, who plays for the
University of Cincinnati, is
currently leading the nation's
scoring with an average of
34.48 points per game. Last
Wednesday, he had his
second best scoring perform
ance of the season as he
racked up 18 ield goals and
14 free throws for a total of
50 points.
How would it feel to play
with such an outstanding bas
ketball player?
Well, there is one fellow at
the University of Nebraska i
whom I believe is well qual
ified to answer that question.
He is Albert Maxey, who
plays on the Cornhusker's
freshman basketball team.
When Al was in high school
in Indianapolis, Indiana, he
played basketball with Rob
ertson. In fact, Maxey has
known Robertson almost all
of his life. They grew up to
gether but did not play bas
ketball together until they
reached high school. Al said,
"it was a real thrill playing
with Robertson. Everything
he has received in the past
he well deserves. And any
thing he receives in the fu
ture, he will also deserve."
Since Oscar is a year older
than Al, they did not play
together until Al's sophomore
year and Robertson's junior
year. That year, their team
won the state championship.
They lost only one game that
year. In Al's junior year,
their team went undefeated
and again captured the state
championship. Last year, his
team was runner-up in the
state. Robertson did not play
because he graduated in 1956.
Another interesting point
in Al's high school career
was that he played against
Herschell Turner, a current
member of Nebraska's var
sity team. Turner and Maxey
went to different high schools
in Indianapolis.
"Easy Al", as he is known
by sports scribes, is a won
derful fellow to talk to. We
started talking about how he
became a Cornhusker. Be
fore he graduated from high
school, he talked to his coach
Ray Crow about where to go
to college. Crow told Al that
Nebraska had a fine coach
in Jerry Bush, and that there
was a good chance of making
the varsity team. Al said that
Bush was - wonderful fellow
and a terrific coach.
Then the conversation
switched back to Robertson.
Al said that Oscar is a ter
rific player and hopes he can
do as well when he plays for
the varsity team next year.

The sound of ball meeting
bat and the smell of hot dogs
is in the air. Big league spring
training began March 1 and
with the season opener only
6 weeks away (April 14, Bos
ton Red Sox vs Washington
Senators at Washington) the
ballplayers will begin to work
hard because this year's pen
nant races promise to be even
better than last year.
The local baseball scene is
alive too. Coach Tony Sharpes
crew has been training since
Feb. 1 and Tony figures .his
team to be in the thick of
the red hot Big 8 pennant
race.
Perhaps a review of some
of the more important hap
penings in baseball the past
winter is in order.
The biggest news was, with
out a doubt, the shift of the
Dodgers from Brooklyn
to Los Angeles and the Giants
from New York to San Fran
cisco. Many reasons for the
shift are still unknown but on
the surface it appears that
financial factors were the
main reason. Other reasons
were: poor parking facilities,
poor attendance on the part
of the Giants, a smali stadium
on the part of the Dodgers
(34,000 cap), pressure by
West Coast representa
tives, and a necessary change
from the sports monopoly of
metropolitan New York City.
In short, it was time for a
change.
In Los Angeles, the Dodg
ers will play in memorial
coliseum (temporarily) which
has a seating cap of 101,000.
The Giants will play in the
old Oakland Seals stadium
(approx 22,000 cap) but hey
will eventually play in a new
stadium. The Dodgers will
have a new stadium too.
Both teams anticipate rec
ord crowds. The West Coast
patrons have responded much
like Milwauke's fans did when
the old Boston Braves
switched to Milwaukee a few
years back.
Last year's world champion
Milwaukee Braves have
acquired som e pitching
strength the past win
ter. They got Bob Rush and
Don Kaiser from their
cousins the Chicago Cubs.
Kaiser has recently been de
clared 4F by his draft board

"Tex" Winter: "There was
nothing we could do to change
the way Nebraska was play
ing." No, "Tex" didn't have
much to say Monday night.
In fact there wasn't much he
could say in the face of the
defeat that his number 1
ranked team had received.
There is a chance he will
have even less to say after
his team plays Kansas again
and plays Cincinnati in the
first round of the N.C.A.A.
regional tournament.
I do, however, hope that
the Wildcats can beat Kan
I sas and go on to win the
N.C.A.A. championship. It
j would be a big feather in the
Husker's cap to be one of
the two teams in the county
to beat the N.C.A.A. champs.
I believe these two wins
over Kansas and Kansas
I State have done a lot towards
restoring lost Husker spirit,
i I have heard several people
swear that they will never
again say anything against a
; Husker team in any sport. I
; hope that they and a lot of
other people keep those vows.

There will be a meeting
of all those interested in

said.

so it seems as though Mil
waukee has the inside track
to the National League Flag
as a result of this shrewd
trade.
On the local scene. Coach
Sharpe's team should be in
the Big 8 race all the way.
Sharpe has some new sopho
more rookies that will give
the Huskers some important
pitching and reserve
strength. The Big 8 has pro
duced Major Leaguer's in the
past and many of the Big 8's
brighter prospects have
signed to play pro ball.
All in all, it looks like a
good year for Cornhusker
baseball fans as well as Big
League fans.
Conference Eases Rule
On Freshman Games
The Big Eight conference
has lifted their ban on fresh
man basketball games.
The move came at a meet
ing of conference athletic di
rectors in Kansas City last
weekend. Conference rules
were changed to allow four
yearling games, all during the
second semester.
Nebraska ahtletic director
Bill Orwig said that no teams
had been contacted for sched
uling so far. Orwig pointed
out that the Husker frosh can
go outside the conference for
games against a junior col
lege or freshman squad from
any four year school.
Of the four games, the new
conference rule stipulates
that only one of the four
games can be away from
home. Orwig said that the
one road game would prob
ably be against a Big Eight
foe on an alternating basis
like freshman football.
Orwig pointed out that in
order to play a freshman
would have to be scholastic
ally eligible. "A boy would
have to be passing in at least
12 hours and have a four or
above in nine hours or 60
of his courses," Orwig said.

Bush was more emphatic.
"The Big Eight and Big Ten
were the only conferences in
the country that had such a
rule and I'm glad to see
them do away with it here.

Manufacturing Engineer Lee H. Baker, like many other
engineers, mathematicians and physicists, came to
IBM directly from college. Here he tells how he
found an excellent opportunity for creative engineering
in his area of the expanding electronic computer field.
What's if like to be with
"It's difficult," Lee Baker admits, "for a college senior
to feel confident when choosing a job. For four years
the college student has been trained to be critical and
deliberate about making decisions. Now, faced with the
biggest decision of all, he has only a few months in
which to have job interviews, weigh the facts, and
select a company not to mention passing exams and
graduating at the same time."
Lee Baker, with a B.S. in Industrial Administration,
came to IBM in 1953. Starting as a Technical Engineer
in Production Control, he was immediately assigned
to the General Manufacturing Education Program a
ten-month course with rotating assignments in all
phases of the work manufacturing, purchasing, pro
duction. In addition to formal classroom study, he
spent some time in the Boston Sales Office, calling on
customers with an IBM salesman.
EV dT- fi ' t1
Designing centre! system
His career was tem
porarily interrupted by
two years with the
Air Force in Japan.
Back at IBM in 1955,
he has since been pro
moted to Production
Control Engineer. His
present job is to design
systems to insure a
smooth flow of work
through the plant
where the famous
electronic computers
are manufactured. "It
takes creative engineering ability to design these sys
tems," he says, "and it taken administrative ability to
'sell' a system to higher management and make it stick."
Many creative opportunities
There are many creative opportunities in IBM Manu
facturing Engineering for men with B.S. degrees in
electrical, mechanical or industrial engineering. You
may be concerned with the analysis, design and pro
curement of tools and equipment needed to produce
a wide variety of computers and other business ma
chines. Or you may deal with plant layout, methods,
production control or systemi testing. "So much of
our work is creative that it is often necessary to pro
duce unique manufacturing equipment. This affords a
chance for creative engineering of the first order."
How to select an employer
To the college senior faced with a job decision, he
has this to say: "Pick your employer by this simple
test: Is the company expanding fast enough to pro
vide adequate scope for your talents and ambitions?
Is it interested in your
long - range manage
ment development?
Will it treat you as an
individual and match
your abilities with the
most challenging assignments?"
Fnr his nart. Ie Baker r ' -T
feels IBM has met this
test. Since 1953, he has Jf ;
seen new plants open, -'--.
dozens of new products Lj..
evolve, hundreds of "Wiin" th. .yem
management positions created. Increased stature, re
sponsibility and reward have come his way. And he

continue to expand.
Recently married, Lee
'j Baker advises seniors
to nav snecial atten-
tion to company bene
fits. "They may seem
like a yawning matter
when you're single, but
they mean a lot when
you assume family re
sponsibilities. IBM
benefits are certainly
generous."
Company growth means opportunity
This profile is just one example of what It's like to be
with IBM. There are many other excellent opportuni
ties for well-qualified college men in Research, Develop
ment, Manufacturing, Sales and Applied Science.
Why not ask your College Placement Director whea
IBM will next interview on your campus? Or, for
information about how your degree will fit you for an
