Coliseum Beat . . . by george mdyer Today I received my complimentary ticket to the Lincoln Chiefs' home ball games. They told me there were advantages to this job. My thanks for the ducat go to Dick Wagner, Chiefs' busi ness manager. It looks as though J will get a chance to see the Western League's champs in action before leaving Lin coln, and it ought to be a lot of good entertainment. From the looks of things, the Chiefs will once again be in contention for the Western Loop title. Tough Bird This last weekend, a few of us dropped in on the Kansas University campus to catch up on our social obligations and do a little talking about fraternity problems. When I met my roommate for the weekend, Sam Simpson, I began to feel a little like an escaped circus midget. Sam is a husky chap. So husky as a matter -of fact, that the Jay hawk's new football coach Jack Mitchell expects him to hold down one of the starting end positions on the Kansas football team next fall. - When Sam discovered my hobby was sportswriting (WelL some people call what I do writing), he obligingly invited me to view a scrimmage of the Kansas spring practice series. The visit to the Jayhawk football camp was enlighten ing, but not particularly encourging. Kansas looked big, ag .gressive, fast and talented. Running off the Sliding T, the Hawk first and second units gave the scrubs a long, rough afternoon. From the locks of the talent displayed in the Kansas ball yard, our neighbors to the south will be contenders next year. No one expects them to beat Oklahoma, but the general campus consensus smells more than faintly of Orange Blos soms. Since Oklahoma is ineligible for the trip to Miami this year, ICansans are considering thr club the logical choice to serve as standin for the perennial Big Eight kings. Mitchell is not without his problems, however. The sliding T requires an expert quarterback, and the man Cactus Jack counted on as most likely to fill the bil. Bob Marshall, is having knee trouble. His availability for next fall is presently doubtful, which leaves his job wide open. Only inexperienced hands are at the present available to fill the post little con solation for a new coach at a school which has not been noticeably tolerant of losing seasons. Home Front On the local gridiron, Bill Jennings is apparently making good progress on Nebraska's rebuilding program. The pleas ant surprises so far this spring have been the general en thusiasm and spirit of the squad in spite of last year's dis astrous season plus the fine running of sophomore Max Martz and freshman Pat Fischer. This is no time for predictions, but I think it is safe to cautiously offer one small optimistic comment. We will be better next year three victories worth. (Good grief I've done it again. Put that chain saw down men you'll kill the tree.) , By Randall Lambert Staff Sports Writer The Nebraska baseball team managed to stay in con tention for the Big Seven crown and a possible N.C.A.A -berth by winning two out of three games from the Gold en Buffaloes of Colorado Fri day and Saturday. The Huskers picked up a 9-7 victory Friday afternoon and split a double header Sat- : Husker Boxes COLORADO NEBRASKA ' ab r h rbl ibrk rbl Hitman If 3 0 0 Jelmtr cf 2 S 1 0 Kinney n 3 0 0 0 Sieler 2b 4 0 11 Shell c 2 0 0 0 Lewis ri 3 0 11 Melntvre lb 3 0 0 0 a-Semin 0 0 0 0 Molliconi cf 2 10 0 Torczon If 3 0 10 Linnrman rf S 1 1 0 Ruisinger lb 4 0 11 Mannwn 3b 2 0 10 Karl aa 2 0 0 0 Whitlock 2b 3 112 Kanac 3 0 2 0 Puleo B 2 04 1 McKay 3b 2 0 0 0 b-Siebler 10 0 0 Ziegenbein p 1 9 0 0 c-Zentic 0 10 0 Total 23 3 4 3 Tal K 4 1 3 Colorado 000 030 03 4 2 Nebraska 100 010 24 7 1 a Semin ran for Lewis In seventh, b Siebler struck out lor McKay in sixfi. c Zentic walked for Ziesenbein in seventh.

Football Clinic 'Very Success iuV Says Jennings Approximately 175 h g h school coaches and some 50 prep athletes attended the first Spring football clinic ever to be held here at the University of Nebraska. Bill Jennings and his Husk er grid staff conducted a series of lectures and demon strations on coaching prac tices and training rules and procedures. The day-long ses sion was concluded with a game-condition scrim mage with coaches, athletes, and fans looking on. urday by identical 4-3 scores. The two wins'brought the Hus ker's conference record to five wins against four defeats and their season record to 10 wins and five defeats. Okla homa, who swept a three game series from Iowa State, leads the league with a 6-2 mark. The Sooners are fol lowed by Missouri, 5-2, and Oklahoma State, 5-3. Siebler Wins Fifth Dwight Siebler picked up the first Nebraska win by limiting the Buffs to nine hits on his way to his fifth victory against no defeats. He was helped by a seven run outburst in the sixth inning that shelled Buff starter Bill Subry. Ken Ruisiner, who had three hits in four appearances at the plate, blasted a two-run double. He was followed by a bases loaded single by Gary Reimers, another single that scored two runs by Doug Sieler, and a final two run contribution on a single by Gene Torczon. Colorado picked up two runs in the next inning, but it was not enough as the Hus kers won 9-7. Nebraska wrapped up their second win of the ser ies behind the four hit pitch ing of Charlie Ziegenbein. Zeigenbein who only walked nine more, had trou ble only in the fifth inning when he allowed two hits and three runs. Nebraska was down 3-2 go ing into the bottom of the seventh inning. Leroy Zentic was given a free pass and ad vanced all the way home for the tying run when Joe Puleo, ace of the Colorado staff, re trieved Gary Reimers sacri fice bunt and threw wildly to first base. Reimers Takes Third . While Zentic was involved in a close play at the plate Reimers went all the way to third base. Puleo intentional ly walked the next two men to fill the bases. The Colorado infield and outfield were play ing shallow in an attempt to cut off any Nebraska runner at home plate' when Ken Ruisinger belted the ball into right field for his first hit of the day and the game-wining tally. Colorado took the last game of the three game series when Del Ritchhart bested Husker Gil Dunne in a ten inning pitching dual. Ritchhart al lowed four hits in his ten inning stirit while Dunne al lowed seven hits. The Huskers tied the game in the bottom of the seventh when Bob Semin scored from first base on Gene Torczon's double to centerfield. Torczon scored when the Colorado catcher, Leon Shell, over threw third base after Semin had slipped while rounding j TV ... S f Puelo . . . Buff Ace Beaten third when Shell made, his ill-fated throw over third base and out into left field. Shell Redeems Himself Colorado won the wind blown affair when Darrell Higman walked, went to sec ond on a passed ball and was driven home by Shell's single. The Huskers will be on the road next weekend when they face the Oklahoma State Cow boys at Stillwater, Oklahoma. By Elmer Krai Staff Sports Writer The University of Nebraska track team after a dismal showing at the Kansas Relays a week ago, came back with a strong showing in the Drake Relays this weekend.
