Mim Kubacki, regular

Both teams have just re
turned from successful
southern trips which saw the
Huskers post a 5-1 mark and
Missouri post a 3-1 mark.
Nebraska beat Houston and
Tulsa each twice and split
games with Rice. Missouri
whipped Mississippi twice
by the scores of 5-4 and 14-5.
They split a two game se
ries with Arkansas State,
winning the first handily 13
0 and dropping a ten inning
contest via a muffed fly
ball .2-3. The three wins
helped Missouri settle any
doubts they had about them
selves because much of their
last year's talent was gone
by graduation or profession
al baseball contracts.
The Tigers starting pitcher
Friday will be sophomore
John O'Donahue, a 6-3 lefty
who stopped highly regarded
Mississippi in his first pitch
ing assignment. Veteran Doug
Gulick, 1-0 last year, and Ken
Lambert, sophomore, will
probably be the Missouri
starting pitchers Saturday.

Sports Museum Houses Momentos

Webster's dictionary de
scribes a museum as a "build
ing for an exhibit of art, sci
ence, etc." Morrill Hall is an
example of this definition. Ne
braska's athletic teams also
have a museum on the Corn
husker campus. It is located
on the second floor of the Coli
seum and is known as the N
Club room.

There are also footballs which
