The Daily Nebraskan Monday, May 13 1963 Page 4 ydta Sparks Whites To Meoir Hedl Upset TERRY ANDERSON Sports Editor The Red ha"d to come back from an early White drive to take a victory, 21-15, from a surprisingly stubborn White squad. The Saturday night intra- squad game at Seacrest Field climaxed 20 days of spring practice for the Husker grid- ders and was the only bright spot in a dismal All-Sports Day program. Tony Jeter kicked off for the White squad, a short kick that rebounded off of R o n Mlchka and recovered by Je ter. The Whites converted the Red error into a 41 yard TD in 11 plays climaxing with Frank Solich's five- yard sweep around right end tally ing the TD. Duncan Drum split the goalposts for the con version. Lightning then struck in the form of Kent McCloughan, Red halfback. M c C 1 o u g h an grabbed the White kickoff and raced 88 yards for a Red tally. Quarterback Dennis Claridge ran to the right on a keeper which accountered for a two point conversion and the Reds led, 8-7. In the second period Clar idge went to the airways en route to a perfect night's pass ing, hitting 7-7. to score the first of two Red TD's in the second period. The second Red TD came just six plays after the White punted at the start of the sec ond quarter. Claridge used everyone of his backs in the TD-drive. Left halfback Willie Ross hit right end for ten yards, Claridge kept for six more, fullback Gene Young boomed for three and right halfback Rudy Johnson blasted for nine on a quick opener to put the ball on the White 25. Young hit for three more to set up a Claridge to Larry Tomlison pass for a 22-yard TD pass. Yearling halfback Ted Vac tor took the Red kickoff and nearly repeated McCloughan's feat but Ross stopped him af ter he had gone 52 yards with the ball. By Tigers Nearly Blank Huslcers As Missouri Remains On Top Bornschlegl Run Saves NU Smear Nebraska's diamond crew nearly ran into a blank wall this weekend as they met the nation's no. one team, Missouri, in a head on colli sL?i on the Husker field. Mizzou nearly shutout the Husker '9' but the Cornhusk ers managed to push across one run in the last inning of the finale on a Tiger miscue. In the Friday twinbill ac tion the Bengal visitors blanked the Huskers behind the pitching of Larry Bohan uon and Rich Peterson. Bohannon blanked the Husk ers in the opener for his fifth win against two losses, giving up only six hits and allowing no walks while striking out seven. He received support from the field and was backed by ten hits from his teammates including a 370-footer homer by Dave Havey. Peterson tossed a one-hitter against the NU squad with Dave May getting the only Husker hit, a single in t h e sixth. He walked five and struck out five. Friday's losses were charged to Ron Havecost now 1-5, and to Jan Wall now 3-3. In Saturday's finale the Huskers managed one run in the ninth when Larry Born schlegl singled and moved to third on a single by Dave May. With one out Tom Ernst hit a sharp grounder back to third baseman Dave Harvey who fired to second baseman Bob Price who bobbled the ball. Price picked it up in time to get May but Born schlegl went on home for the lone Husker run of the ser ies. The win boosted the Mis souri record to 15-2 while the Husker record slumped to 5-12. The Husker diamond squad will meet Oklahoma State at Stillwater. I But the White attack, be hind the guidance of Fred Duda, bogged down on the Red 35. A Red attack bogged down after a 13 yard pass from Claridge to Dick Callahan and they were forced to boot. Henry Woods intercepted a White pass and returned it to the White 21. Doug Tucker then intercepted a Red pass in the end zone to stop the drive on the seven yard line. Dave Lebsack, freshman quarterback from Lincoln Northeast, set up the f i n a 1 Red touchdown with an inter cepted pass and a 42-yard run to the White three. Lebsack then pitched to Poggemeyer on the first play from scrimmage to hit pay dirt. Frank Solich scored the fi nal tally of the game in the third quarter for the White team when he went in from the four yard line. Duda du-ected the White drive that went 73 - yards to end in paydirt. Solich accounted for 37 of the yards on a 20-yard scam per and caught a one-hander from Duda for 17 more. Fullback Bruce Smith con tributed two carries for 18 yards in the drive. Another pass to Jeter was good for six to keep the drive alive. Duda added a two point con version to end the scoring, 21 17. The Reds threatened to score three more times, once in the third and twice in the fourth period, but failed to hit paydirt. Duda and Doug Tucker ap peared to have the Whites in a position to win the game or at least tie it in the third quar ter. The drive came to a halt when defensive halfback Mike Kennedy pilfered a T u c k e r pass. Claridge put the Reds in an other position to score on two passes to Callahan for 19 yards, a Young run for four more, and two keepers for another 16 yards. The bid stalled on the 24 PHOTO BY JAN SACK SAFE TIGER Missouri runner crosses first safely as Husk er first baseman Dave May waits for the ball. George Landgren was charged with the Husker loss in the finale although he was retired after facing the first eight Bengal hitters. Er nie Bonistall then took the mound to quiet the Tiger sticks. Rightfielder Tom Ernst was the standout in the finale as he made a couple of saves that could have gone all the way. He made a leaping over-the-shoulder catch of McAr tor's lone fly to end the sixth, then robbed Jim Sevcik with a shoe-string grab in the sev enth. Missouri blasted the Husk ers for 12 hits and played er rorless ball. John Sevcik and Gene McArtor accounted for three apiece. All Mizzou hits were singles with the o n 1 y extra bases blow of the game being Husker Don Schindel's lead-off double in the first inning. In other Big Eight action there was considerable shift ing of places in the confer ence. Oklahoma remained in sec ond place taking two out of three from cross-state rival Oklahoma State. The Sooners won the Friday doubkheader, 3-2 and 5-4, but the Cowpokcs ramp back to take a 2-1 de cision in the Saturday finale. when a new unit took the helm and missed a first down by a yard. With 48 seconds left in the game foggemeyer stole a White pass and returned it to the White 27. Lebsack then picked up 11 yards on three carries to run out the clock. Solich was the game's top ground gainer with 56 net yards while Young was the top ball carrier for the Reds with 31 followed by Pogge meyers 24 and Ross's 18. Smith hit for 30 and Bob Hohn went for 26 for the Whites. Duda passed 11 times for 46 yards, hitting 4 receivers and one enemy receiver. Tucker hit one for ten and one of his were intercepted. Lebsack passed three times, connecting one for 11 yards. The White squad outfought the Reds in first down pro ductions but the Reds outdid them on the ground, 189-139. Coach Bob Devaney was a spectator in the press box during the scrimmage as his aides handled the sideline du ties. Devaney thought the scrim mage went well except for the "basketball" tactics used by the White squad during the second quarter as they passed resulting in a sloppy second quarter. Devaney thought that this year's team is ahead of last year's pace. He commented that they hadn't made any great progress last week but the hitting was good and the gridders are in better position than they were last year at the end of drills. He said that the main thing in spring practice is to find who can help you and what positions you can use them to best advantage. Duda seemed to earn the No. two quarterback spot be hind Claridge as he led the No. two team. But Devaney said that the other quarter backs still have possibilities. Devaney cited Duda, Solich, j Hohn, Smith and Chuck Doep ke for turning in outstanding performances for the White team. Willie Ross, Gene Young and Rudy Johnson received the praise from the Red back field. 0 it But in the other games Kan- , sas traded Colorado fourth place for third place and K-1 State gave the Iowa State Cy clones the cellar chair. The Jayhawks took third place by beating the Buffs ; 8-2 and 5-2, while the K-State j Wildcats were whipping Iowa State, 6-4 and 2-1. !
