Thursday, May 9, 1963 Page 4 The Daily Nebraskan Missouri, Nation's Best Invades NU Diamond For Ml Sports Series Nebraska's baseball team will come up against the best In the nation this weekend as they meet the Missouri Ti gers in a three game series in conjunction with Husker All-Sports Day. The Tigers edged the University of Oregon by two votes in the national poll to remain the number one team in the nation with a 164 record. The Tigers gained the con ference lead last weekend as they met the No. 1 team in the league, Oklahoma. The Sooners had a perfect mark in the loop and Missouri had one blemish, a loss to Okla homa State in the season opener. The Tigers split a twinbiil with the Sooners Fri day bat took the Saturday finale to gain possession of the loop lead. The Cornhuskers are in sixth place with a 5-9 mark and an 8-12 overall record. M.U. coach John Simmons will probably stick to his us ual pitching rotation and use his two veterans, Larry Bo hannon and Rich Peterson in the twinbiil. For the Saturday finale, southpaw Jack Stroud will take the pitching assignment. Stroud is a rookie pitcher for the Bengals and has a 4-0 record and a credible 61 strikeouts in 34 innings. He set a Bengal record in the Colorado series wiffing 20 Buffs. Previous high was 16 tied by two righthanders Dick Atkinson in 1952 and Norm Stewart in 1955. Husker coach Tony Sharpe plans to start Ron Havecost (1-4) and Jan Wall (3-2) Fri ALL-SPORTS DAY SCHEDULE 11 a.m. BASEBALL, MISSOURI VS. NEBRASKA, UNIVER SITY DIAMOND. 1 p.m. TRACK, MISSOURI VS.

Sharpe commenting on the game said, "We will have to get our best fielding, pitch ing and hitting to get a win or two in this series. We can't give them very many runs and expect to beat them." Sharpe plans to start the following lineup against the Tigers Friday, providing Mis souri starts its two righthand ers Bohannon and Peter son. The NU batting order will be: Don Schindel, cf; Ernie Bonistall, 3b; Ron Doug las, 2b; Dave May, lb; Tom Ernst, rf; Larry Bornschlegl, c; Ron Michka, If; Dave An derson, ss. If the Tigers start south paw Stroud in the Saturday contest, Sharpe plans to in sert either John Faiman or Wally Duff in the NU lineup in place of Michka. Missouri's strong points are a deep pitching staff, includ ing Bohannon, Peterson, Stroud and Keith Weber, and power hitting led by the Sev- cik twins, John and Jim. Last year the Tigers swept the three game series from the Huskers at Columbia. After 20 games, May is the only Husker regular hitting above .300. The NU first sack er is batting .375 and leads the team in total bases with 21. Don Schindel had four for ten last weekend to raise his average to .231 after a slow start. Sieck and Wall are the top Husker pitchers with three wins apiece.

" Johnson is being groomed as the "Warren Powers of 1963" by Coach Bob Devaney and backfield skipper Mike Corgan. Powers is the Kansas City senior who hurled himself into the breech last fall when All Big Eight fullback Bill Torn ton suffered a dislocated shoulder prior to the South Dakota opener. And as the season pro gressed, it became more and more apparent that Power was playing a vital part in a winning season playing ei ther fullback or left halfback. While Johnson saw some fullback service as a sopho more, he has logged most of h i s Cornhusker time as a right halfback. Last season he carried 36 times for 164 yards and a 4.6 average, seventh best among the heavy-d u t y brigade. This spring, Rudy who was Nebraska's only point producer in the field events as Nebraska won the Big Eight indoor track title checked out gear as a right halfback. Shortly after drills started he was assigned the dual role of fullback as a pos sible replacement for Gene Young, just in case Gene got banged up. Then a week ago, with May nard Smidt on the shelf with a fractured leg and Dave Theisen hobbled with a non healing leg muscle, Rudy was presented with a new chore left halfback, plus r i g 1 1 half and fullback. Corgan is quick to point out that Johnson's rotation is no reflection on his ability to win a starting job at as i n g 1 e spot. "I'm not too sure Rudy couldn't knock any one of the boys at the three positions out of a job," Mike grinned. "He's a real good right halfback and we didn't move him be cause he was unable to do the job there. But we made the moves to help the other posi tions sort of added insur ance." Corgan added. "We're ; thinking about the injury thing. Last year when Thornton was ! hurt, we had to make a quick i conversion with Powers in just a few days. "By giving Rudy a shot at ; all the spots this spring, we're ! anticipating a little better and we'll be better prepared in the fall if trouble pops up." i j Powers passed only twice from left halfback last fall he completed one for 18 yards and Corgan indicated : Johnson wouldn't be drilled to do a lot of throwing, either.

His time was :09.5 for the 100-yard dash. Ray Knaub, Nebraska's dash ace, is the Daily Ne braskan Star of the Week for his performance at Boulder last Saturday against Colo rado and the Air Force Acad emy. While running the :09.5 Ray set a meet record and tied the Folsom Stadium mark held by Don Campbell of Colorado and Bobby Morrow of Abilene Christian. After beating Dick Burns in the 100, Knaub pushed the Colorado sprinter to a new stadium mark in the 220-yard dash. Burns' time was :20.8 and Ray said his was about :21.0. Knaub was not pleased with his 220-yard time. Last year he ran this event in :20.5 around a full curve which j would have been a record eV w:ept there was a 6 mile per hour wind. Only a 4.7 mile wind can be blowing and al low a record. A week lat er he ran :20.7. Both times he beat the highly touted Ted dy Woods of Colorado. After running the record shattering century, Ray said, "I didn't feel in top shape, but I ran :09.5 anyway. I'm just getting into shape now and I'll hit my peak at the conference." At the conference he will run both the 100 and 220-yard dashes. He expects his main competition to be Dick Burns, but he says Burns' best 100 is only about :09.6. Ray considered Colorado the first really good track meet of the year. This week the Huskers face Missouri which is also a top-ranked track team. Ray is thinking in terms of after the conference meet, too. "If I can get some :09.3's ' and :09.4's I'U run in the NCAA meet in Albuquerque, N.M. June 16-17. But I'll de- cide if my times are good enough." The 1964 Olympics are also on the horizon for the former Scottsbluff speedster. Every thing here will depend upon how much work he will be able to do. Next year he hopes to go into graduate school. Ray is an artist as well as an athlete. Reacf Nebraskan Want Ads pioouna 18 and 19 7 v? ft e-inn feA , -.r Immi MAIN LOBBY QQIVQS or Dash q f n.
