NU Whitewashes Buffs for Series Sweep
By RICK AKIN
Sports Staff Writer
Nebraska pitchers took the
spotlight last weekend as the
Cornhuskers grabbed a three
game set from Colorado by
virtue of the shutout method,
exclusively.
The hard-hitting Buffalo
batting order was stymied by
Husker hurlers Ernie Bonis-
tall, Ron Havekost and Keith
Sieck. This trio was the key
to Nebraska's three blankings
of the Buffs, 2-0, 2-0, and 1-0.
The series sweep moved
Nebraska into a fourth place
tie with Colorado in the Big
Eight. Both teams have 8-9
conference records. NU is
now 12-10 on the year.
After Nebraska copped
both ends of the Friday
double-header by identical 2
t scores, Saturday's game
turned out to be the real don
ny brook bf the series.
Keith Sieck allowed the
Buffaloes only four singles in
striking out nine and walking
three, for a i-0 win.
Sieck was in trouble only
once and that was the first
inning. In this frame Colora
do loaded the sacks with two
out but Sieck's pitching snuf-
ieu me lire.
From then on, it was clear
sailing for the big right-hand
er from Lincoln.
It was Sieck's best game
by far as ne moved his
record to 3-1, tops for the
Huskers percentage wise.
The lone Nebraska run
came with the help of some
wild throwing on the part of
the Buffs.
Steve Smith beat out a slow
roller to the third baseman
Nick Graham in the fifth inn
ing. Smith broke for second
on the second pitch to Dick
Becher, and the Colorado
catcher, Rob Bennett, threw
the ball into centerfield, al
lowing Smith to go to third.
CenterfielJ?'- Gale Wiedner,
who got two of ih? four hits
off Sieck, picked up Bennett's
overthrow and threw wildly
to third, allowing Smith to
score.
In the mayhem, Smith was
given a stolen base, and
Weidner and Bennett each re
ceived errors.
In the first game of the
Friday doubleheadcr Bonistall
set down 19 straight Buffaloes
in posting a 2-0 win.
Only one batter sDoiled
Bonistall's bid for a perfect
game. Second baseman Jim
Brunkhardt, who was hitting
347 going into I he game, sliced
a single in the first inning
with two men out to become
the only Buff to reach first
Dase.
Bonistall, right-hander from
Williamsville. N.Y.. struck
out 11 and walked none to up
his season's record to 4-3.
The Huskers banged out
seven hits and scored two
runs in the fourth inning.
Smith and Pat Salerno each
went two-for-three.
Base running was the kpv
to the win. Salerno and Don
Purcell pulled a double steal
to score the first run and Sa-
lerno came all the way home
from second on a passed ball
for the second run.
In the second came of the
doubleheader it was Southpaw
Havekost's turn to set down
the powerful batters from
Colorado.
Havekost spread out five
singles to the Buffaloes and
was in serious trouble.
The Huskers brought home
single runs in the first and
fifth innings to give Havekost
the thin cushion.
Another lefty, Ray Melvin,
was the loser for Colorado as
he showed fine control, walk
ing none of the Huskers.
Netters Lose
To Cyclones
Nebraska's only All Sports
Day Loss was suffered by the
Husker netters as Iowa State
defeated Nebraska 6-1, Satur
day morning.
The Huskers dropped all
five singles and won the only

doubles as Dick Gibson and
Dave Wohlfarth teamed to de
feat Cyclones' Tuck Vosburg
and Tom Line, 6-4, 6-2.

14TH & CORNHUSKER HIWAY
By BOB BESOM
Sports Staff Writer
It isn't often that members
and coaches of opposing ath
letic teams hit the locker
room with beaming smiles
following an intense battle
but this was the case in the
Husker Stadium Saturday af
ternoon. Spring grid drills were
wrapped up with an optimis
tic note as Nebraska football
ers were split for a feature
climax to the All Sports Day
affair.
A 33-21 victory went to the
Reds in what gridiron profes
sor Bob Devaney tabbed "a
good game."
"I was surprised the mar
gin in the score was so great,
however," said Devaney, "the
units were divided as closely
as we felt possible."
The Huskers gave thf 3,000
fans who watched the players
toil in the hot sun the im
pression that they will be able
to score from a varied ar
senal next fall.
Four of the eight touch
downs came by way of aerial
routes through the pitching
of Doug Tucker (Whites) and
Dennis Claridse (Redsk Both
had good passing days.
Tucker, a freshman, was
lauded by Devaney as putting
in "his best day this spring."
After watching the showing of
rucKer, wno was given tun
chores after John Faimon
was injured in the initial per
iod. Devaney stated "I be
lieve we can operate with two
units next fall."
The 170-pound Davenport,
la., native completed seven of
15 passes for a 112-yard tot
al including two TD heaves
and an extra point pass.
Claridge racked up seven
completions of ten attempts
for 98 yards. Devaney was
pleased with the 210-pound
junior from Robbinsdale,
Minn. "He missed on a couple
pass plays but came right
back and threw them again
and made .them work. We
like that."
The fullbakcs were the
leaders on the ground. Bill
Thornton racked up 41 yards
on nine carries witn uar-
idge's unit and Gene Young
gained 40 yards with Tucker's
rlub.
Rudy Johnson also chipped
in 40 for the Reds.
The ground attack was pret
ty well balanced and Devan
ev said that the over-all of
fpnsp nnerated a little better
than he had expected.
Defensive worK wasn i
slighted thoueh. In fact,
indications pointed to a dull
day early in tne lniuai per-
.nH hopniisp tne oiiensive ai-
jvvi w
tack of both units were be
ing stopped without much
gain.
But Devaney still expressed
concern over the defensive
situation. "The tackling
seemed a lot crisper today.
And there weren't too many
missed tackles. But we still
aren't satisfied defensively,"
he said.

In what amounted to only
a practice session for the Bie
Eight Conference meet this
weekend, the Husker cinder
men soundly walloDed the in
vading Kansas State Wildcats
88-43, Saturday before a size
able All-Sports Day crowd.
All total during the one
sided affair, four records
were lowered and two other
marks were also below the
old standards, but not al
lowed because of the wind.
Ray Knaub. blond Husker
cyclone, tore up the cinders
n the 100 and 220 -yard
dashes with times of :09.4
and :20.5 resnectivelv. The
:09.4 lowers the old record of
:09.7 set by Rod McClav in
1949, Thane Baker in 1952 and
Dolan McDaniel in 1957, all of
Kansas State.
Knaub's century mark also
ties the Varsitv record held
by Keith Gardner and the
btaaium mark set by Hubert,
Meier of Iowa State in 1930
and Bob Poynter of San Jose
State in 1959.
Too much wind disallowed
the :20.5 as a new mark. This
is possibly the nation's fast
est collegiate time for the 220
around a curve.
Nebraska's other record
came in the 440-yard run with
Gil Gebo touring the oval in
:48.0, bettering the old record
set by Bob Groszek of Kan
sas State in 1960 by one full
second.
In the mile run Pat Mc
Neal of Kansas State was
caught in 4:16.2 for a new
mark. The old record of 4
19.8 was set bv Tom Rodda
of Kansas State in 1957. Mc
Neal overtook Husker John
Portee after the NU sopho
more led most of the way.
The oldest mark to tumble
during the afternoon was
knocked off by Wildcat Ron
Stout when he heaved the
iron ball 54-74. The old stan
dard was 53-4'A set by Elrier
Hackney of Kansas State in
1939. Larry Remers and Ilol-
and Johnson of Nebraska
snatched second and third
places with marks of 48-5 and
47-3.
Hustling hurdler Ron Moore
landed a double win when the
talented sophomore copped
both the highs and lows
