mores being counted on to
bolster the pitching corps.

pitching staff I have had at
Nebraska," Sharpe saia.
"Sophomores Ed Johnson,
Ron Havekost and Tom Ernst
have a lot of potential"

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.

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. He
also connected for fwo home
runs.
Harris, the lone senior in
the starting nine, hit .239 last
season with four homers and
20 runs-batted-in.
Redmond and Myers were
both members of last year's
squad. Redmond had a .3568
batting mark In 19 trips to the
plate while Myers did not
make an official trip to the
batter's box.
Anderson and Bonistall are
sophomores. Salerno was out
for spring football last season
and Smith was a member of
coach Frank Sevigne's track
squad.
Sharpe has only two other
returning lettermen, catcher
Earl "Porky" Oltmah and
pitcher Jan Wall, as five of
the seven top hitters are gone
from last year's entry along
with the top pitcher on an
earned run basis, Don Pur
cell. 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.
Rice, the opening foe, has
nine returning lettermen from
a team that finished second
in the Southwestern confer
ence last year. Houston de
feated Texas in the NCAA
playoffs.
The Huskers will leave ear
ly Saturday morning with a
practice session slated for
Stillwater, Okla., Saturday
afternoon.

Coach Ed Higginbotham and
his Husker tennis team.
Higginbotham and his five
man crew will open the Husk
er tennis season Mar. 27
against Tulsa.
After Tulsa the squad will
meet Oklahoma Baptist, of
Oklahoma, Oklahoma State
and Wichita on the next four
days.

year's squad, will be the only
upperclassman making the
trip.
Higginbotham lists sopho
mores Dave Wohlfarth, Jack
Lauster, Bill Lewis and Ralph
Queen to complete the prob
able Southern contingent.
The outlook for the Husker
tennis squad is unpredictable
at the present time. Both Ok
lahoma Baptist and Tulsa are
opening their seasons against
the Huskers.
"I wish I knew we haven't
been outdoors yet," com
mented Higginbotham, when
asked about this years
squad. Thursday was the first
time the team was able to
venture from the Coliseum
court.
"The only thing I know for
certain is that Oklahoma
State will be loaded," contin

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."
