Slowly boosting their plate
percentages back into con
tention have been Nebraska's
Bob Churchich and Colora
do's Dan Kelly. Churchich
now ranks fifth at .364, well
within reach of the leader,
Kansas State's Dave Baker
(.432). Kelly stands at .324.
It is easy to tell where
Churchich roams on the foot
ball field. He was the Big
Eight's leading passer in 1964
when he was the "Sophomore
of the Year."
In baseball, it is different,
however. He started off as a
pitcher. He was moved to
third base when not throwing
and then volunteered to play
shortstop when regular John
Roux pulled a muscle. All of
Popping into the rankings
for the first time this year is
Kelly, the backup signal call
er for the Buffs. An often in
jured journeyman on the
gridiron, he has just missed
chances twice to take over the
top quarterback job. First a
broken wrist stopped him in
the middle of his move. Then
last year, it was a foot injury.
In baseball, however, he
has managed to stay healthy,
holding down a third base or
shortstop spot more often
than not. The football wrist
slowed him early last year,
but he had a good summer in
the Basin League, playing for
Kansas' Floyd Temple.
Illness finally knocked Okla
homa State's Marv Fiocchi
off the Conference pitching
Strike Remains Unresolved
But Construction Resumes
Construction work resumed
Tuesday on the new addition
to Nebraska's Memorial Sta
dium. The work being done
Tuesday involved pouring the
cement pillars which will sup
port the new seats.
A spokesman for Olson
Construction Company said
Wednesday that the strike
which has idled work on t h e
stadium since early in April
has not yet been resolved,
but some workers have re
turned to the job.
Concerning a possible ex
tension of the completion time
the spokesman said, "I don't
think we're in any kind of
trouble yet."
Original plans called for the
this is on top of being the top spot. He became ill during addition to be completed be
the Huskers' baseball trainer.
If he continues his upward
trend and closes the gap on
Baker, who is the leader for
the second straight week,
Churchich might be in for a
rare versatility award. When
he goes into his senior foot
ball season next fall, he'll be
only a short shot away from
gaining new Nebraska passing
records for career yards, ca
rere completions, and total offense.
the first Poke-Oklahoma
game last Friday, kept going,
and was touched for four
runs. The trouble was later
diagnosed as a heart attack.
Iowa State's Bob Ziegler
now leads the pitchers, allow
ing no earned run mark. Kan
sas State's Steve Wood (0.S4)
and Oklahoma State's Larry
Burchart (0.80) are still close
behind. Again this week, eight
pitchers are under the 2.00
ERA level.

fore the first home football
game September 17.
When the stadium is com
pleted there will be 62,644 re
served seats plus room f o r
enough bleacher seats to push
the total capacity to over
63,000. That would make Me

the Big Eight Conference.
NU Athletic Director Tippy
Dye said Tuesday that it is
doubtful that the track in Me
morial Stadium will be able
to be used for track meets
upon completion of the new
addition.
Dye said, "We expect to
have a new track, the loca

"We're at the mercy of t h e
