In Final Spring Scrimmage
By Hal Brown
. Nebraska's gridders went
through their final scrimmage
Saturday before the All-Sports
Day battle with the alumni
coming up Saturday at 2 p.m.
in Memorial Stadium.
Although individuals such
as Thunder Thornton, Ron
Meade, Ron Gilbreath, Willie
Ross and Bifl Comstock stood
out in their respective back-
NU '9' Loses
To Kansas
Nebraska dropped its nonth
conference game against
three wins as Kansas pulled
out a 4-3 extra-inning win Sat
urday at Lawrence.
Nebraska was coasting
along with a 7-0 lead behind
the shutout pitching of Tom
Ernst in the fourth inning of
the nightcap when the game
was called because of dark
ness. Friday's scheduled double
header was washed out and
Saturday's twinbill was de
layed by wet grounds.
The first game of Satur
day's doubleheader went into
extra innings when Nebraska
failed to score with a bases
loaded situation and none out
in the top of the seventh.
Jayhawk hurler Tom Holler
drove in the winning run in
the eighth inning when he sin
gled following John Manning's
double.
Jan Wall started for the
Huskers and was relieved by
Ernie Bonistall in the seventh.
Nebraska out hit the Jay-
hawks, 5-4, as the two teams
committee nine errors, four
by Nebraska.
fields, Husker coach Bill Jen
nings was not pleased with
the offensive showing Satur
day. Jennings sent his charges
through 15 minutes of wind
sprints following the regular
scrimmage won by the Reds,
364, and then ordered more
contact work with the Red
units working against the
White defenses.
"I guess you could say 1
was disappointed with our of
fense today," Jennings said
after the two and one-half
hour drill. "We have certainly
looked better."
Jennings picked out Ron
Gilbreath as being one of the
more impressive performers
of the morning workout. "Ron
was hitting his receivers real
good," Jennings said. The
Sidney sophomore connected
with nine of 24 attempts and
had three intercepted. Several
of his incomplete passes were
directly in the hands of re
ceivers, but they failed to
grasp the pigskin.
On Both Teams 7
Jennings shifted Gilbreath
Red squad in the final min
utes of the scrimmage and
Gilbreath missed on two pass
attempts.
Ron Meade was the most
successful of the quarter
backs, hitting on seven of 10
attempts with one intercep
tion for the Red team. John
Faiman found the range on
only one of nine with one in
terception. Thornton led the ball car
riers with 131 yards on 10 car
ries for a 13.1 average. Com
stock and Ross also showed
prowess as ball carriers.
Ross thrilled the 300 fans by
sidestepping and threading
his way for 37 yards through
the Red defense early in the
game. Comstock broke loose
on the second play of the
game and romped 43 yards
for a score.
The Red team was made up
of what Jennings calls his top
22 with possibly two or three
exceptions.
Thornton set up Comstock's
TD romp with a 27-yard run
on the first play of the game.
Thornton raced 12 yards for
the second Red score after
Don Purcell set up the scor
ing play by intercepting one
of Gilbreath's aerials.
The Whites scored their only
TD early in the second quar
ter with Ross plunging over
from the four after setting it
up with his brilliant 37-yard
dash.
Thornton ripped loose for 24
yards and the third Red tally
and Meade made it 24-6 with
a 43-yard touchdown strike to
Dick Callahan as the third
quarter ended.
Thornton then scored on an
other 12-yarder and Meade
uncorked a pass to Chuck

from the White unit to the j Doepke that went 78 yards for

HUSKER STRONGMAN
Husker weight star Al Wellman demonstrates the tech
nique which set a new meet shotput record against Colo
rado this weekend with a heave of 54-7 feet. Wellman,
native of DeSmet, S.D., also holds the varsity record in tho
discus with a toss of 164-10 feet.
Football Recruit Stars
On NU Track Team
Al Wellman came to Nebraska on a football scholar
ship but his top performances have been with the track
team. He holds two Nebraska records.
The 6-3, 220-pounder from DeSmet, S.D., set a Nebras
ka record three weeks ago with the discus with a toss of
164 feet 10 inches. This was accomplished in a triangular
with Drake and the Air Force Academy. Wellman placed
second in the Drake Relays with a toss of 163-7.
Al's toss of 158-3 stood as a h i g h school record in
South Dakota until a year ago. He was an all-state choice
in both football and basketball in high school.
Wellman saw little action in track as a freshman at
Nebraska. An elbow operation the winter of his freshman
year sidelined him for the indoor season.
In addition to the discus record, Wellman holds the in
door shot put mark at 53 feet 1 inches. This was set dur
ing the Big Eight Championships this year.
An example of Wellman's desire to contribute was
shown in the 1959 NCAA Championships in Lincoln in 1959.
He missed by 15 inches of placing in the nationals in
the hammer throw.
"I had never seen a hammer prior to that meet," Well
man said.
Al was a quarterback in high school but was converted
to a tackle at Nebraska. He lettered in his sophomore and
senior years in football.
He has devoted his basketball talents to the intramural
scene here. He has been a top scorer for three years.
Wellman is a vocational agriculture major and carries
a 6-plus average in his studies. He plans to teach after
serving a stint with Uncle Sam.
Cyclones Drop Husker Netters
The Husker tennis team
added another loss to its
string as it went down in de
feat to Iowa State, 7-0, in Sat
urday's match at Ames.
Iowa State's Tuck Vosberg
won the No. 1 singles match
over Dave Wohlfarth, 8-6, 6-1,
to start the Cyclones toward
the blanking they gave the
Husker netttrs.
Jack Craft, mid-season
starter, was defeated by Bob
Stoy of Iowa State, 6-2, 8-6,
in the third match of the
meet.
Wohlfarth and Craft lost
their doubles match, 6-3, 6-2,
to Vosburg and Tom Line of
Iowa State.
Line also won his singles
match from Husker Jack
Lausterer. Tom Johnson and
Bill Lewis lost singles match
es in the meet and Lausterer
and Johnson dropped their
doubles match in the only
three set play of the after
noon with 5-7, 6-4, 6-8 sets.
Friday's match at Drake
was called off because of rain.
The Huskers and Drake were
tied 1-1 when the match was
called.
