The Doily Nebroskon
w4H Sports Day:
Jayhawks Invade
Husker Hopes On
The Nebraska Cornhuskers
will play host to the Kansas
Jayhawks in a three game
series this weekend that will
determine whether Nebraska
stays In contention for the
Big Eight baseball crown. To
stay in contention the Husk
ers must sweep the series
that will begin with a single
game on Friday at 3 p.m.
The Jayhawks are cruising
along in third place with a
7-3 record. Nebraska dropped
below the .500 mark this past
weekend and are shackled in
fifth place with a 5-7 mark.
Siebles vs. Miller
Coach Tony Sharpe will
call on his pitching ace
Dwlght Siebler to stop the
rampaging Jayhawks in the
first game on Friday. Siebler
will be faced by Larry Miller,
Kansas ace hurler, who has
shut out Oklahoma and Colo
rado and led the league with
50 strikeouts last year.
The Saturday call will go
to Charlie Ziegenbeln and
probably Lefty Hevner. Zieg
enbeln lost his first game last
weekend, but has a fine 4-1
record, while Hevner Is 0-3
for the season. However, Hev
ner found himself last week
end when he pitched master
ful ball for five Innings
against Oklahoma State.
Kansas will counter with
Ron Wiley and either Gary
Russell or rookie John Han
son. Wiley Is -a former all
conference outfielder who hit
.358 last year and posted a
7-2 record as a pitcher. Rus
sell saw action as a relief
pitcher last year, but has
started several games this
spring.
Good Fielding
The Jayhawks not only
havs an outstanding pitching
staff, but are also bolstered
by fielding personnel. Jim
Trombold, all-conference and
all-fifth district N.C.A.A. first
baseman, led the Jayhawks

times. In centerfield is foot

baserunner on the Kansas

four teams in contention for
the title.
Onjy one game separates
first place Missouri and fourth
place Oklahoma. Sandwiched
in between these two contend
ers are Oklahoma State and
Kansas.
Kansas Sweeps
Kansas, after some early
season fumbling, jumped into
the title picture with a sweep
of a three game series at Col
orado. Larry Miller shut out
the Buffs 4-0 in the Friday
game and reliefer Gary Rus
sfell got credit for both wins
in the Saturday doubleheader,
taking 10-8 and 8-3 decisions.
The important Missouri
Oklahoma series, which was
expected to relieve the pres
sure among the top four clubs
was rained out Saturday after
Missouri took a 5-4 decision
Friday.
In other results around the
conference, Iowa State, last
year's title winners, final
ly got their once mighty
club rolling for a pair of vic
tories over Kansas State. The
scores were 5-1 and 3-0
with R. A. Locker of Iowa
State and Mike Lair of Kan
sas State each pitching two
hitters in the nightcap.
Oklahoma State dealt Ne
braska's pennant hopes a se
vere blow by sweeping a three
game set at Stillwater. The
Cowboys combined good hit
ting and pitching to take the
series 8-1, 6-1, and 2-1.
All Teams In Action
This week, all conference
clubs are in action for three
game sets with Iowa State
bearding Missouri in Colum

Tennis Star Earns Week's Award
For Creighton, K-State Victories
George Fisk, who has lost
only one match for the Ne
braska tennis team since the
disastrous Southern road trip,
came through with smashing
victories in his last two out
ings against Kansas State and
Creighton to earn this week's
Daily Nebraskan Star of the
Week award.
George was the only Husk
er to win against K-State last
week, and he played brilliant
ly in the Creighton dual. His
record to date compares with
the team overall record.
George has a 7-5 win-loss
record in singles matches
thus far. The team has an
identical season record.
Since George's father is a
salesman, h i s family has
moved around the country a
great deal. After Billings, the
Fisk family lived in Omaha,
where George continued his
tennis activity. He lettered
three 'years at Omaha North
High School in the tough In
tercity League. His s e n i o j
year he teamed with a for
mer Husker. Brent Donnel
son, to battle to the runner
up spot in the Nebraska High
School Tennis Championships.

Sports, Skirts??
Any resemblance to this
column and "Sports in
Skirts," which recently ap
peared in the Pixie Press, is
purely coincidental. Honest
I have the feeling, however.
that readers of both column
seem to appreciate the new
est on morel
WeH, what can I do???? Of
course, there are so many
scandalous things going on in
the intramural tournaments,
the P. E. classes, etc, I Just
don't know where to begin.
We took a field trip In golf
last Thursday for P. E. class.
All of us went to the driving
range! It was fun, until one
lone boy appeared on the
scene.
Actually he probably was
just overwhelmed at the sight
of about 20 girls lined up on
the driving off mats.
Whatever the case, he
promptly began giving if not
the best, at least the most
persuasive performance of 'I
can really drive neat, I can,
I can" that I've ever seen.
He swung that club so hard
and hit the bround (and ball,
too. unfortunately) so hard,
that pretty soon we were
watching him j u s t what he
wanted, I'm afraid.
Oh well, he added a little
spice to golf class, anywayl
