NU Baseball Prospects
For Coming; Year Good
By Hal Brown
A host of promising fresh
men will be moving up to;
battle returning Varsity mem
bers for positions on the Ne
braska baseball team next
spring. Thirty freshmen play
ers have survived the spring
cuts and are being groomed!
for next year.
Among the more impressive
players during spring drills
have been Jim Asche, Phil
Earth, Jim Ray, Bill Red
mond, Steve Smith, Rex Swett,
Elmer Takenishi, Jan Wall,
Dave Webster, Bill Zeplin,
and Don I'urcelL
Secondbaseman Gil Dunne,
Infielder Jerry McKay and
Pitchers Bob Gleason and
Dean Flock are t h e only de
parting members of this
year's Varsity squad.
Hawaiian Combo
The Huskers will probably
have a Hawaiian doubleplay
combination next year with
Dave Murakami returning at
shortstop and Elmer Takeni
shi of Honolulu moving up to
take over the secondbase spot.
There is an abundance of
pitchers in the freshman
camp with Gene Blair of
Hay Springs being the only
southpaw. Pitchers showing
top potential this spring are
Jan Wall, a prep standout at
Lincoln Northeast, Dave Web
ster, who hails from Billings,
Montana (home of Varsity
thirdbaseman Doug Sieler),
and Bill Zeplin from Pender.
The leading catcher appears
to be Don Purcell of Omaha
Purcell reported only two
weeks ago but has been im

"How come you're sclliog tlic shop?"
Don is an end candidate on
Coach Bill Jennings football
team.
Dave Meyers of Lincoln and
Jim Ray of Columbus, Indi
ana, have alsos hown ability
behind the plate. Breaking in
to the Varsity lineup as a
catcher is going to be a tough
job, however.
Infield
Ely Churchich and Earl Olt
man, the number one and two
catchers this year are both
sophomores.
The infield is well stocked
with representatives also. Jim
Asche and Rex Swett, short
stops; Phil Earth at first
base; Bill Redmond at third
and Takenishi at second are
the leading candidates for the
infield positions which will be
hard to get with three of the
four regulars returning.
Earth and Asche have been
hitting the ball good during
workouts, according to Larry
Lewis, freshman coach. Swett
and Redmond have been hav
ing trouble at the plate but
tney are potentially good hit
ters. Redmond hit over .600
in legion ball last summer.
Swett was an infielder on the
Huron, S.D. team in the al
ways tough Basin League last
summer.
The outfield is probably the
weakest spot on the f r o s h
team with Steve Smith of
Lexington being the leading
candidate for an outfield berth
next year. j

From The Outside
by randall lambert
Another school year has gone by the boards and for the
second year in a row we haven't had a major shakeup in
the NU coaching ranks. To some this may not appear to
be any great accomplishment, but when you think back
graduating seniors, it is the first time since you and the
underclassmen have attended the University that this has
happened. It shows that Nebraska athletics are on stable
footing and that we are on our way toward attaining a top
flight athletic program that can compete nationally at the
top of the ladder instead of up and down depending upon
the sport and the year.
Of couse football has been the sport with which alumni
and followers of Nebraska athletic fortunes have been most
concerned. Bill Jennings and his staff will be beginning
their third season at Nebraska next fall. The squadmen
that will be juniors next year are the only ones who have
been under Jennings leadership since his tenure as head
coach began.
Fans, especially football fans at Nebraska, year in and
year out become optimistic about the team's fortunes.
There Js nothing wrong with this as long as they don't
become embittered and give up on the team when they lose.
However, I wouldn't become a pessimist either. There
has been too much said already about exnecting too much
from next year's team and figuring on the Husker's beat
ing Oklahoma or any other national power. These warn
ings are all right, but they have aopeared year after year
until it's gotten to the point that it has crested a type of
defeatism attitude among the student body. If the students
here at Nebraska can't support and follow their team, then
who is going to do it. Evidence of this was shown during
the Husker's vin over highly rated Pittsbureh this fall. It
was probably the best game played bv a Nebraska team
in several years. However, almost half the student body
dragged in after the half when it appeared th Scarlet had
a chance to pull another Penn State performance out of the
hag. I doubt whether much of whatever snurred the team
to win was the result of an enthusiastic student bodv.
Back on the track and the original point that Nebraska
athletics seem to be on the road to recover' mainly be
cause of the fact that repeated hiring and firing of coaches
isn't the answer to winninc teams. Two of the biest
examples of this are Rud Wilkinson of Oklahoma and Bill
Fasten of Kansas. Wilkinson's football teams and Easton's
track teams have dominated the conference more thor
oughly in their respective snorts than anyone else. Wil
kinson took over in 1947 and has grown from a 7-2-1 record
in that year to where he has won three national champion
ships and six of seven bowl games. Easton became track
master at KU in 1347. He now has won nine straight indoor
titles and eight straight outdoor titles.
Since this is the last column I'll write for the Rag it's
only appropriate that I thank Larry Novicki, Norm Beatty
and Charlie Coffin from my first semester's staff and Hal
Brown, Keith Bland and Tom Davjes from this semester's
staff who have put much time at the keyboard to provide
copy for our readers.
SAE Star Rates
Highest Honor
Wally Bryans, who has
gained intramural honors in
everything from football and
hockey to shuffle board, has
been named the Daily Ne
braskan's Intramural Athlete

The former Omaha Central

letic family. His father let
tered for four years at Ne-
i braska in track: and h l s
