Remarks
Nebraska tracksters enter Campus Calendar
' -- by Mark Gordon
ZZ . Sports Editor
A glance at Nebraska's baseball
statistics would have you believe the
Huskers are 3-0 in league play rather
than 0-3.
Coach Tony Sharpe's crew is hitting
.213 collectively as a team while op
ponents are swinging (?) back with
a -.194 batting average and also lead
In six of seven hitting categories.
While none of the batting figures are
impressive, they indicate NU's batting
Isn't quite as pathetic as many follow
ers think.
TWO PLAYERS, catcher Adrian
Fiala, who also performs linebacking
duties on coach Bob Devaney's foot
ball squad during the fall, and third
baseman Tom Tidball are hitting in
the .300 level. Fiala is swatting a
hefty .370 while Tidball is at a
.300. '
5tn in pitching statistics, which
was supposedly the Husker's weakest
position with a freshman-dominated
staff, NU is allowing 2.40 earned runs
per game compared to 3.13 for the
opposition. Although Nebraska only
Btands at a subpar 3-6 overall record,
the staff has hurled five complete
games.
NU pitchers have walked 37 men
and struckout 68, which is a respec
table ratio. So the question arises
Why are the Huskers in last
place?
MAINLY A LACK of the right hit
at the right time and the great
defensive play at the two-out stage
In a tight situation. These are faults
which Sharpe has been working on
all week and hopefully can be
prevented against Kansas in a three
game series opening Friday with a
doubleheader at Lawrence and con
cluding Saturday with a single
game.
When we first saw Sharpe earlier
In the week he grinningly asked us
Hot to discuss hitting with him. But

the Husker mentor did say NU would
be more relaxed when batting against
Kansas this weekend in quest of its
first Big Eight triumph.
If Nebraska can continue its strong
pitching it will win the series against
the Jayhawks.
WAA ELECTIONS -All girls who
have participated in at least one
Women's Athletic Association sport
this year can vote at the same places
and times as the Friday AWS elec
tions for WAA officers.
Presidential candidates are Marg
Crandell and Mary Clementson,
secretarial foes are Sharry Wilson and
Barb Knapp, while Chris Kress and
Mary Ann Watkins are competing for
treasurer.
The WAA board, one of the most
vital sports organizations on this
campus, plans sports and recreation
activities for all University coeds.
Vote Friday it's a worthwhile
group.
WE'LL TRY THIS again after
space limitations and other problems
preventel us earlier, we now con
gratulate the Aquaquettes for their
excellent swimming performance
before spring vacation.
SPORT MAGAZINE reports that
Southern California basketball coach
Bob Boyd feels national champion
UCLA should not be ranked higher
than fourth.
"I really don't believe the Bruins
deserve to be rated higher than
fourth," he says, "right behind the
Baltimore Bullets, the Los Angeles
Lakers and the Boston Celtics.
FUNNY COMMENT, yet after the
Bruins dominated the collegiate game
for the three years that All-American
Lew Alcindor was with the team, that
has won national titles five of the
last six years, it is better for the
sport that Big Lew graduates.
When one team overshadows others
to the extent that coach John
Wooden's squad did, it is better if
the team is somewhat disbanded.
NEBRASKA FOOTBALL coach Bob
Devaney's staff has been revamped
since 1968. The new lineup: offensive
backs Mike Corgan; offensive line
Carl Selmer; offensive centers and
kickers Cletus Fischer; offensive
ends Tom Osborn; defensive line
Monte Kiffin; linebackers John
Melton; defensive backs Warren
Powers; freshman coach and
defensive backs Jim Ross, offensive
backs Bill Thornton.
LAST WORDS Four new
divisions, four new expansion squads
and eight new managers may have
been added to major league baseball,
but the game remains basically the
same not enough action.
NU car club
plans rallye
The first annual University of
Nebraska Sports Car Club rallye-pic-nic
will be held Saturday at 2:30 p.m.,
according to Wayne Faris, rallye
master.
Registration will begin at 2:30 at
the north door of the Nebraska Union
and the first car will leave at 3:30,
Faris said. Anyone interested may
compete, he added. A registration fee
of $1 for club members or $2 for non
members will include the cost of
refreshments.
1 44th annual Kansas meet
Frank Sevigne and Tony Sharpe
may be at extreme ends of the record
scale but. they both have the same
objective this Friday and Saturday in
Lawrence, Kan.
While track coach Sevigne has seen
his Huskers win three straight outdoor
meets, baseball coach Sharpe has
witnessed his crew drop its first three
starts in league play. But both
coaches hope to win this weekend as
NU tracksters enter the 44th annual
Kansas Relays and Nebraska's
baseball team meets Kansas in a Fri
day afternoon doubleheader and a
Saturday single contest.
"THE KANSAS Relays and next
week's Drake Relays will probably be
our toughest meets," Sevigse said,
adding that no team points are kept at
the Kansas event.
Although Nebraska suffered the
usual minor injuries in winning a
guadrangular at Arizona State, a
triangular at Arizona and a dual with
the Air Force in Lincoln, Sevigne said
the 20-man squad will be in "pretty
good shape for Kansas."
Poverty conference
ivill meet Thursday
There will be a meeting Thursday
night at 9:30 of all students interested
in attending a western United States
student conference on poverty, April
25-27.
Those interested should meet in the
Daily Nebraskan office, room 51,
Nebraska Union. AWS has provided
$300 for University students to at
tend. The conference will feature national
speakers, workshops and seminars on
poverty.
While Sevigne said he will enter four
relays, he was uncertain of his sprint
medley lineup and may not choose
the team until Friday morning when
the preliminaries are held.
While the tracksters can't win or
lose at Lawrence, the baseball team
can and Sharpe is hoping for NU's
first league wn after three straight
Lincoln losses to league-leading
Oklahoma.
"NEBRASKA and Kansas are
similar in that both have good pit
ching," he said. "In fact we both have
two left-handed and one right-handed
starters."
Like NU, Kansas also has displayed
erratic hitting in winning one of three
games against the 5-1 Oklahomans.
NU is 5-6 overall and Kansas is 2-4 in
Big Eight play.
Sharpe has tabbed Grand Island
left-handers Al Furby and Gene Stohs
against the Jayhawks and Omaha
freshman right-hander Paul Marek in
Saturday's single game.
WHILE NU has received strong
pitching, the hitting has been
relatively weak, but Sharpe claims
NU should be more relaxed in batting
against the Kansas.
"We should not be as scared when
batting now since we have played 11
games," he said.
Last year Nebraska won two of
three games from the Jayhawks,
allowing the southerners an average
of two runs per match and held the
Kansans scoreless in one game. But
Nebraska was blanked 5-0 by the
Lawrencemen in last year's series
finale.
