Glovers Close
at Kansas State
NU Seeks First Division
rado and Nebraska are tied
for fourth in the Big Eight
standings with 8-9 records.
Coach Sharpe will start
with the same lineup as he
did against Colorado, pitching
Kon Havekost and Ernie Bon
istall in the doubleheader and
Keith Sieck in the nine-inning
Saturday game.
The batting order: Don
Schmdel (.253), cf; Steve
Smith (.464), rf; Dick Becher
(.272), ib; Don Purcell (.179),
c; Pat Salerno (.262), If;
Dale Anderson (.262), 3b;
Tom Ernst (.220), ss and Bill
Redmond (.194), 2b.
The versatility of Ernst
has helped the Huskers in
their stretch rut?. Ernst
has pitched, played right
field and is currently doing
a yeoman job at shortstop
where the Cornhuskers have
had troubles in the earl y
season.
Last week's series sweep,
which featured sharp pitch
ing and stout defense by the
Huskers, is believed to be a
record by Coach Sharpe as
far as the shutouts are con
cerned. Using mainly a sophomore
laden squad, Kansas State
has nine lettermen this sea
son, including a strong pitch
ing staff.
Wayne Thummel, senior
lefthander, is the leader of
the Wildcat hurlers, and is
backed ably by Rick Heiman
and Brad Steele, both seniors.
Coach Ray Wauthier's in
field and outfield is composed
of sophomores, one. of which
is Sam Somerhalder, a na
tive of Minden.
According to Coach Wau
thier the addition of the sophs
has aided the Wildcat defense
but causes a lack of hitting
punch.
Steve Smith continues to
lead the Huskers and the
Big Eight in hitting with a
.464 batting average. His rec
ord also shows 17 runs scored
and 14 runs batted in, tops
for Nebraska in both cate
gories. Dick Becher is the next
leading batter with a .272
mark.
Bonistall, Havekost and
Sieck upped their records
considerably in the Colorado
series.

Huskers Seek Revenge
For Close Indoor Loss
By JAN SACK
Sports Staff Writer
Figured in the mad scram
ble for the Big Eight Outdoor
track title Saturday at Law
rence, Kan., are Nebraska,
Colorado, Kansas and Okla
homa any of which could
win in the go-for-blood battle.
Sevigne and his boys will be
seeking revenge to make up
for the near victory in the
Big Eight Indoor Champion
ships in March.
Nebraska's entries will be
the strongest in several
years with the track events
Sevigne's stronghold. Husker
sprinters and hurdlers could
easily come up with the top
places in each event.
Ray Knaub, junior sprint
ace from ScottsWuff, has the
best time in the 100-yard dash
with a sizzling :09.4. Knaub,
figured to hit his peak about
this week, is in top physical
condition and is favored to
cop this event. Most of the
competition will come from
Tony Watson of Oklahoma
and Teddy Woods of Colorado.
Don Degnan, Husker team
mate, will lend support in
this event.
Knaub also has a :20.5
clocking for the 220 around
a curve, which ranks h i m
nationally with the best col
legians. Hurdle Strength
The trio of Husker hurdlers
Ron Moore, Captain Bill
Fasano and Fred Wuke
are expected to come through
in top shape in the Confer
ence. All three placed high
in the indoor meet. Fasano
has a season best of :14.0 in
the highs followed by Moore
who has done :14.1 and Wilke
with a- : 145.
Wilke leads the Scarlet
timber toppers in the lows
with a speedy :23.4 followed
closely by Moore clocked in
:23.6. Both Fasano and Le
Roy Keane have marks of
:24.0 in the lows.
The mile run, always a fa
vorite event in any track
meet, will not disappoint the
fans. Scheduled to do battle
with top Husker Mike Flem
ing is Bill Dotson, two time
champion from Kansas. Paul
Ebert of Oklahoma has also
turned in ' a mile time of
4:09.2 in the Drake Relays
to upset Houston's Pat Clo
hessy. Fleming has a mile time of
4:05.5, clocked on the anchor
leg of the Husker four-mile
relay team which set a new
record at the Texas Relays.
Fleming's best open mile
time this year was a 4:18.9
against Colorado.
Dotson, the mile king, has
an open mile time of 4:03.7
and in running this he bowed
to Southern Illinois Bill Cor
nell. Not to be counted out in
this event is tough Husker
junior Ray "skip" Stevens
who finished fourth in the
Conference last year.
The two-mile race also
looks promising. Provided
Dotson, Ebert and Fleming
are all fresh enough to come
back, it could prove inter
esting. Pat McNeal of Kansas State
is expected to pass up the
Travel and be paid for it too!

Nebraska golfers will be try
ing to improve on their last
place showing of last year
when they meet the other Big
Eight schools in the confer
ence showdown this Friday
and Saturday at Columbia,
Mo.
Bud Williamson will head
the Husker hopes. Other NU
linksters who will make the
trip are Jerry Overgaard, Bill
Hemmer, Bill Gunlicks and
Bill Encell.
"On the gullied course at
the Missouri Ag Campus, we
should have a change to beat
Iowa State out of seventh
place," said Coach Harry
Good.
"The school (Missouri) has
just got its own course and
it's not very well sodded as
yet," Good continued. "It's
a tough course you can't
even see some of the greens
until you're within putting
distance. But we've played it
before, so we should have an
edge on the other visiting
teams," he added.
In their last outing the
golfers defeated Omaha Uni
versity 12-3 in a dual meet
played in Lincoln Monday.
Medalist was Williamson
with 79.

Husker Netters Hit
Rugged Big 8 Meet
By AL SPORE
Sports Staff Writer
The climax of the Nebraska
tennis season will take place
this weekend as the Husker
netters journey to Lawerence,
Kansas for the Big Eight
Championships.
Coach Ed Higginbotham's
five man squad will be up
against stiff competition as
each team pairs off Friday.
Higginbotham picked Kansas,
Oklahoma State, and Iowa
State as the toughest teams
in the conference.
"Much will depend upon
how the draw goes to pair
the teams off," commented
the Husker mentor.
Coach Higginbotham will
probably go with his usual
five top men:
Dick Gibson, sophomore
standout with a 7-3 won-lost
record, will play the number
one singles.
Dave Wohlfarth, junior
letterman, will play number
two singles and team with
Gibson for Nebraska's bid in
the number one doubles.
