Sharpe hag nominated Ed Johnson, a 6-2, 185 -pound sophomore from Ute, Iowa to pitch the opening game .inhnson is one of three sovho mores being counted on to bolster the pitching corps. "This could be the best pitching staff I have had at Nebraska," Sharpe saia. "Sophomores Ed Johnson, Ron Havekost and Tom Ernst have a lot of potential" Sharpe listed his probably opening batting order as fol lows: Dale Anderson, ss; Jer- Golfers Face 6 On Trip By Bob Nye The Husker golfers open the season Monday with the an nual Southern tour that will find them competing for six straight days. The trip begins with Okla homa Central State College at Edmond, Okla. The linksters then engage Oklahoma Bap tist, Tulsa, Washburn, Wich ita and Kansas State in that order. ' "Tulsa and Wichita will be our toughest opponents," coach Harry Good said. "The Southern schools have a tre mendous advantage with their year-round good weather." Of the five men to make the trip only Dave "McConahay and Jerry Overgaard have been chosen so far. The other three men will be named to day, Good said. "We have eight golfers who are bunched fairly close and it's going to be a fight for the positions," Good said. Good picks Oklahoma State and Oklahoma to be tops in the conference again this year. He has hopes of better ing last year's winning season of seven wins and five losses. The Huskers finished sixth in the Big Eight championships last season. With the good depth indi cated by the new program of fall and winter workouts and the competition on the team for positions, golf fortunes at Nebraska could be on the upswing. ry Harris,' rf; Steve Smith, cf; Dick Becher, lb; Ernie Bonistall, 3b; Bill Redmond, 2b; Pat Salerno, If; Dave Myers, c; and Johnson. Only Lettermen Harris and Becher are the only lettermen in the starting lineup. Becher hit .315 in 20 games last , season. His 15 runs - batted - in ranked him fourth in that department.

Pros Take Two Catcher Ely Churchich signed a pact with the Cleve land Indians and third base man Phil Barth came to terms with the Baltimore Ori oles. Purcell stubbed his scho lastic toe. "We could be real tough de fensively, but we may be a little weak, at the plate," Sharpe said. "I think we have better overall speed than we've had in several years." After the Texas trip Ne braska opens the home sea son with Oklahoma State, Big Eight champion, April 7-8. The Huskers travel to Mis souri the following week end to go against Hi Simmons' perennial Tiger powerhouse. "We could go 0-12 in a hur ry this season," Sharpe said.

Xafirj, ' " v"J THIS YOUNG MAN IS A BUSINESS ANALYST FOR THE TELEPHONE COMPANY When Gene Bernier received his degree in Busi ness Administration at the University of Michigan in 1957, he had top offers "from several businesses Gene chose Michigan Bell Telephone Company because: "This job was tougher to get. There was no doubt in my mind that I was being carefully evaluated for a responsible management job. Just getting this job was a challenge." One of Gene's early assignments was writing a training manual for new employees which would explain telephone accounting in simple everyday terms a tough job even for a seasoned writer. But Gene did it. And his next step was a natural. In November, 1958, he was transferred to the Michigan Bel! Economic Studies Section as editor of a monthly publication, "Michigan Business Trends." In this work, Gene analyzes and reports business trends in Michigan as an aid to tele phone management people in decision making. Gene proved his skill in reducing complex eco nomic problems to simple terms. And, sixteen months after his transfer he was promoted to Senior Statistician. Today, Gene sums it up this way: "The idea around here is to get Che best a man has in him. To me that spells opportunity." you want a job where you will get real responsi bility and have a chance to move ahead as jast as your ability will take you then you'U want to find out more about the Bell Companies. Your Place ment Office has literature and additional information. 'Our number one aim is to have in aU management jobs the most vital, intelli, gent, positive and imaginative men tut can possibly find." - Frederick E.
