Oklahoma State invades the
Husker diamond Monday and
Tuesday for a season finale
of three games.
Due to the final exams tak
ing place this week at Still
water the series has been
moved back.
Nebraska goes into the
game with a 4-14 conference
record and a tenacious grip
on seventh place. A sweep of
the three by NU could move
them into a fifth place tie with
Colorado, providing the Buffs
lose three to K-State.
However, looking at the sit
uation from the other side, the
Huskers can keep out of the
cellar by winning two from
the Cowboys.
Coach Tony Sharpe will go
with the same alignment of
hurlers as the last double
header, Tom Larsen and Bob
Hergenrader, and will prob
ably start George Flock in
Tuesday's single game.
Concerning O-State, Sharpe
said, "They have the weakest
team they've had for years
and years, but they're still not
doing so poorly."
Retiring Coach Toby Greene
had a 312-118 won-lost record
coming in to this season af
ter 20 years of coaching at
OSU.
Leading the Cowboys in hit
ting is vet Ron Schlimme, and
in pitching are Donme Bum
pass and Gordie Watson.
OSU, like everyone else in
the league, dropped three to
Missoun, but they beat Kan
sas in two out of three and
took one from Oklahoma.
There will be a few changes
in the Husker line-up for this
last home-stand. Wally Duff
and Dave May will both be
back on the starting team in
center field and at first base,
respectively.
The starting line-up is: Ran
dy Harris, 2b; Joe Gaughan,
3b ; Larry Borneschlegel,
catcher; Ron Douglas, rf;
John Roux, ss; Dave May, lb;
Gary Tunison, If; Wally Duff,
cf; and Tom Larsen, pitcher.
Monday's and Tuesday's
games both start at 1:30.

May Help Sharpe
By Lee Marshall
Assistant Sports Editor
Although the 1964 baseball season is three games from
being finished, it doesn't seem too early to start contem
plating the Huskers' prospects for next season.
By sheer strength of numbers, the picture looks pretty
good as the three pitchers who are starting in the upcom
ing O-State series will all be back. Tom Larsen and Bob
Hergenrader, both sophomore southpaws, and righthander
George Flock have all become progressively better this
season as seen in the low-scoring games against Missouri
last weekend.
Hergenrader and Larsen both got off to a slow start
this year on the initial Southern leg of the schedule and it
took them both several vital series to regain confidence.
A summer of baseball shouldn't hurt either of them, and
it looks as if they'll be ready to face the tough Big-Eight-go-round
with a little more poise next year.
The freshman team should play no small part in con
tributing to next year's hurling staff. Tom Niebauer, Scot
tsbluff and Stan Bahnsen, an Iowa product, have both
made good showings against the varsity in scrimmages.
One of the thorns in the Huskers' side this past sea
son has been its fielding. Next year finds Rich Brenning,
Randy Harris, John Roux, and Joe Gaughan all back for
infield duty with Larry Borneschlegel behind the plate.
As far as errors go with this bunch it has been inexper
ience more than phyiscal inability that has resulted in num
erous "choke" plays, and, as with the pitching staff, most
of the jitters should be worked out by next year.
The outfield may pose somewhat of a problem next
year as Sharpe was forced this year to play good hitters
in the outfield just to keep them in the lineup, and as a
result many of the fielding lapses were due to infielders
playing the outfield.
Gary Tunison will probably come Into his own at the
plate as will Curt Johnson. The right field position is about
as unsure as a ball hit to the outfield, but Sharpe should
have a pretty good crew from which to choose when the
upcoming freshmen flood the diamond next January.
Next year's schedule should help the Huskers more
than this one has. There are four home series, three of
which are against the top division teams. Missouri, Iowa
State, and Oklahoma.
Actually the main problem with the team this season
seemed to be a combination of bad luck and inexperience.
When the hitters were pounding the ball, they weren't
falling in for hits. When the hits were there, they also ap
peared on the other side in triplicate.
Also, when a team loses so many games in a row,
they begin to get down on themselves, complicating the
whole situation.
So next year appears as a relatively fat pitch for
Coach Sharpe and his men and here's hoping they won't
"take" it.
Two more nominations for
outstanding varsity athlete
have been received. The new
est nominees include trackster
Vic Brooks and footballer Bob
Brown.
Brooks, who hails from Ja
maica, is a broad jumper,
triple jumper and relay man
on the Nebraska track squad
The letter nominating him
reads "In the four years as a
Husker trackman, Victor has
overcome a continuing leg in
jury to star as the most con
sistent scorer on the 1964 track
squad.

Miss Tsukui Selected
For $500 Fellowship
A 25-year-old Japanese stu
dent who is doing her doc
torate work at the University
was selected from nine appli
cants as the recipient of a
$500 fellowship awarded by
the Lincoln branch of the
American Association of Uni
versity Women (AAUW).
She is Miss Nobuko Tsukui
of Tokyo, who earned her
master's degree from the Uni
versity in 1963, with a study on
the writings of Willa Cather.
Her doctorate work will con
cern the influence of the
Japanese culture on Ameri
can writers.
Prof. Gertrude McEachen,
chairman of the AAUW se
lection committee, said the
committee was impressed by
the thoroughness of Miss Tsu
kui's study of Willa Cather.
brilliant leg on the second
place 440 relay.
"Without Victor's 22 points,
the highest scored by any
Husker in the meet, the Ne
braska squad would have
fared poorly," the letter
stated.
Brooks currently holds the
school records for the broad
and triple jumps. His triple
jump leap of 49-5 at the Drake
Relays this spring and his 24
7 broad jump are varsity
records that will give future
jumpers something to shoot
for.
In addition, Brooks set a
new Big Eight record in the
triple jump last weekend at
the Outdoor Championships.
His 47-7 mark broke his own
Big Eight record of 47-3 set
in the 1963 championship
meet. Brooks was also first
place winner in the broad
jump at the indoor meet this
winter.
The letter nominating Bob
Brown, guard on last year's
winning football team, says
Brown has been recognized
nationwide as an outstanding
Nebraska athlete. The husky
guard was chosen by every
major All-America selection
as an "All-American" football
player . . . Nebraska's first
Ail-American in recent years.
"Brown's accomplishments
on the field could be seen ev
ery Saturday last fall as the
touchdowns scored by his
teammates often occurred due
to his fantastic blocking," the
letter points out.
"It was Nebraska's big line,
led by Brown that boosted the
'63 Huskers into the Big Eight
championship spotlight and
enabled the team to take Au
burn in a thrilling New Year's
day classic.
"Brown's many honors in
clude being named Lineman
of the Year by the Pigskin
Club of Washington, D.C., All
Big Eight, and being singled
out as the best blocker in col
lege football by the nation's
c o a c h e s," the nomination
stated.
"In addition, Brown is a
credit to his team scholastical
ly. He graduated in February
and has continued his studies
as a graduate this past se
mester," the letter concluded.
Winners of the outstanding
varsity and intramural athlete
awards will be announced in
the May 29 DAILY NEBRAS
KAN. All nominations must be
submitted by 5 p.m. on May
25. Names of those people
submitting nominations will
be confidential but the NE
BRASKAN reserves the right
to print parts of the letter.

It's hard to believe that a
University coed would give up
all of her spare time to work
out for track, but blonde Carol
Moseke feels the rewards are
worth the effort.
Carol is a freshman from
Cedar Rapids and has been
competing in track meets
since she was a junior in high
school.
"I wish I could have gotten
started earlier," she said. She
feels the lack of experience
hurts in the big AAU meets
and believes she would prob
ably be farther along in her
ability to perform if she had
started earlier.
As it is, Carol has done
well, especially considering
that Nebraska does not pro
mote women s track and any
girl interested must provide
herself with ambition.
This weekend Carol will be
competing at the Midwest
AAU Women's Track and
Field Championships in Sew
ard. Last year she was named
the meet's outstanding per
former after winning the shot
put (40-11), 80-meter low hur
dles (:13.2) and 440 (1:04.8).
Since graduating from high
school, Carol has nearly given
up the running events she
feels you have to start learn
ing to run long before you are
16 and has concentrated on
the shot and discus.
Carol and her roommate,
Sue Van deWalle, also from
Cedar Rapids, work out near
ly every afternoon at the State
Fair Grounds. Sue is a sprint
er and quarter miler and will
be anchoring an 880 medley
relay team at Seward this
weekend.
Now that the weather is nice
the girls don't mind working
out but this winter they were
forced to use the Coliseum at
the Fairgrounds for thr r
practice.
"It wasn't heated, b u t at
least it was out of the wind
and s n o w," Carol reported
However, the surface inside
the buildings was so hard that
runner Sue developed painful
shin splints.
The shot that Carol uses is
an 8 lb. 8 oz. one and she is
consistently throwing around
45-0 this spring. The discus is
a junior high model and al
though she has just started
with it, she likes throwing it
much better.
"It takes speed, skill, and
co-ordination to throw the
discus and I like the chal
lenge," she said.
