Grid Battle Is Feature
Of NU All-Sports Day
Nebraska's Spring football experiments will get their first
real test when the Alumni and Varsity gridcters clash at
Memorial Stadium at 2 p.m. Saturday in the feature attrac
tion of All-Sports Day.
"Saturday's game will be our five weeks test," Husker
Coach Bill Jennings says. "You might say it is our final
exam for the Spring drills."
te
Set
aturday
Jennings credits the annual
game with being a big help to
the varsity squad. "It is the
only outside competition we
get during the Spring and the
alumns provide new and dif
ferent competition for us," he
ays.
Jennings indicates that he
was pleased with the progress
made in Spring drills, but he
emphasizes that the real test
would come Saturday.
"The alumni squad will give
us a good test, in fact, they
may give us too much of a
test," Jennings cautions.
"They have some real good
players.
Seven Sidelined
Seven members of the var
sity squad will miss the game
because of injuries. The latest
to join the injury list was Lyle
Sittler, a third string center,
who suffered a knee injury in
practice this week.
Others sidelined for the con
test are Noel Martin, Doug
Glasscock, Curt Bryan, Don
Smidt, Ron Michka and Ed
Mitchell. Martin was held out
of Spring drills, waiting for a
knee operation to mend.
Mitchell was sidelined mid
way through the sessions by a
knee operation.
Experiments that will be un
der scrutiny Saturday are the
shift of Thunder Thornton
from fullback to left halfback,
Bill Comstock from end to
fullback and George Haney
from tackle to center.
Thornton has been just as
outstanding at his new post in
intrasquad scrimmages as he
was at fullback last fall.
Another Spring experiment
that will receive considerable
attention is the revamped
Husker offense, including a
liberal use of the airways.
Nebraska quarterbacks John
Faiman, Ron Meade. Dennis
Claridge and Ron Gilbreath
have been filling the air with
passes during intrasquad
scrimmages.
The Husker coaches have
devoted considerable time in
practice sessions .to reviving
the offense that sagged fre
quently last fall.
With the alumni starting a
defensive forward wall that
averages 250 pounds per man
from end to end, the varsity
may find it necessary to use
the passing game in order to
penetrate the alums.
Carl Samuelson is the heav
iest of the a ini at 300
pounds but Jerry Wheeler Is
close behind at 285. Wheeler
will be going both wayi at
the right tackle slot
The alumni squad was
strengthened further Thurs
day with the announcement
that Jerry Brown would be
playing. Brown was an all
Big Eight fullback during his
varsity days at Nebraska.
Brown, now a member of
the Dallas Cowboys of the
american Football League,
gives the alums two pro play
ers at the fullback slot. Car
roll Zaruba, who played last
season with the Dallas Texans
of the National Football
League, is expected to start
at fullback.
Alumni Backfield
Joining Zaruba in the start
ing backfield will be Tom
Kramer at quarterback, Pat
Fischer at left halfback and
Clay White at right halfback.
The alums will be trying to
break a two-year scoring
drought and they will have a
little more time in the hud
dles to try to come up with
some scoring plays. The quar
ters have been extended from
15 to 18 minutes to give the
oldtimers more time in the
huddle.
Newlv-elected trioptains
Mick Tingelhoff, Pat Clare
and Don Purcell will lead the
varsity onto the field Saturday.

the starting nod for the first
game of today's baseball dou
bleheader against Oklahoma

Husker Baseball Coach Tony
Sharpe said in naming Ernst

darkness.

from Hooper, to go in the
nightcap with Jan Wall or Er
nie Bonistall drawing the Sat

Havekost hasNa 3.62 ERA
mark and Bonistall is the win
ningest pitcher with a 2-3 rec
ord and a 2.48 ERA.

at least two of the three
games to escape the Big
Eight cellar. Nebraska is one-
half game behind seventh
place Kansas and 9 behind

NU Runners Clash;
Varsity Meets Frosh
By Jan Sack
The Nebraska varsity cindermen will be pitted against
the freshmen on All Sports Day with the field events be
ginning at 11:30 a.m. and the track events picking up at
noon.
One of the most exciting
events should be the mile
where Ray Stevens will be
competing against freshman
John Portee. Stevens,
clocked in 4:11.3 in the dual
against Houston, will be
striving to break the Nebras
ka varsity record of 4:10.1
set in 1941 by Bobby Ginn.
Portee, a New Jersey import,
was clocked in 4:14.6 last
year in high school competi
tion. The 100 and 220-yard
dashes will feature brother
against brother. Bob Knaub
will compete for the varsity
and brother Ray is the top
frosh in both events.
Ray, a transfer from Bay
lor, should dominate both
events. Ray has times of
.09.5 in the century and :21.0
for the 220. He will be pushed
hard in both events by Steve
Pfister of the varsity and fe
low freshman Don Degnan.
Both Pfister and Degnan
have :09.8's in the 100.
The broad jump will be the
highlight of the field events.
Victor Brooks, frosh, should
win the event easily. The lit
tle Jamaican has been hit
ting around the 25-0 mark all
year. Bob Knaub will com
pete for the varsity and Juris
Jesifers and Hohn for the
freshmen.
The varsity men are unop
posed in the shot put and discus.
