Huskers Beat KU13-1 Second Game Today
By JOHN McMILLION
Kansan Assistant Sports Editor
The University of Nebraska baseball team smashed two Kansas pitchers for 17 hits here yesterday afternoon to down the Jayhawkers 13 to 1 behind the pitching of southpaw Willie Greenlaw, who struck out 17 men allowing 8 hits, walking 1, and hitting 1.
Losing pitcher was Wayne Tiemier, who gave up 13 hits, walked 1, hit 1, and didn't strike out any in three and one third innings. Gary Fenity relieved Tiemier in the fourth inning and struck out 2, walked 2, and gave up four hits.
The two teams meet again this afternoon, with game time scheduled for 3 p.m. Righthander Ben Dalton will start for Kansas and southpaw Fran Hofmaier will work for the Huskers. Dalton has a record of two wins and one loss while Hofmaier has won two and lost none.
Nebraska got two runs on four hits in the first inning when the second man up, third-baseman Don Brown, got a single, then scored on centerfielder Jim Cederdahl's double. Cederdahl scored on first-baseman Bill Giles single. Left-fielder Don Becker got a single to end the Husker's scoring for the inning.
Kansas bounced back in the bottom of the first to get their lone run. Hoglund opened the inning with a double, Bill Heitholt walked, Gary Paddget and Bob Conn struck out and then Dick Blowey singled and Hoglund scored when Backhaus dropped the ball.
Kansas never came close to scoring after that except in the fifth when Dick Blowey reached third after doubling and advancing on Don Dixon's single. He died there, however, when Loren Martin and Fenity struck out.
Nebraska added two runs in the third, seven in the fourth, and two in the eighth. Cederdahl led off the third with a triple then scored on Giles single. Becker was hit by Tiemeier and then Norm Coufal singled to bring Giles home.
In the fourth inning catcher Murray Backhaus led off with a walk Greenlaw got a base on an error by Don Steinmeyer, Dirkes Rolston singled to score Backhaus, Don Brown doubled to score Greenlaw and Rolston and Cederdahl doubled to score Brown. Giles popped up to Martin, but Becker and Coufal hit successive singles, with Cederdahl scoring on Becker's hit.
Coach Floyd Temple put Fenity in then and the little lefthander put out the fire, forcing Dennis Korinck to ground out to third and Rolston to pop up to Heitholt, afer walking Backhaus and Greenlaw to load the bases.
Leading batters for Kansas were Hoglund and Blowey who got a double and a single apiece. Clean-up man Bob Conn was unable to cause Greenlaw any trouble as he struck out three times, flew out to left, and popped up to second in five trips.
For the Cornhuskers, Rolston Brown, Cederdahl, and Coufal each got three hits. Brown and Cederdahl each got two doubles and Cederdahl added a triple. Coufal got three singles but drove in three runs.

Red Sox Off To Good Start
Mike Higgins has the Boston Red Sox four positions better off than they were a year ago today but most of the other new managers are finding they've got the same old teams.
Bv UNITED PRESS
It adds up to a bitter blow for the $'baseball second-guessers union" which contends that last year's pilot was responsible for everything that went wrong and it just could be causing some red faces among General Managers who made the Manager the "goat" of a poor 1954 campaign.
Marty Marion of the Chicago White Sox and Mayo Smith of the Philadelphia Phillies are the only other new pilots who have their teams doing about as well as they did in the first two weeks of last season. Marion has the White Sox leading the American league just as they did a year ago under Paul Richards and Smith's Phillies are in fifth place in the National league just as they were on this date last year under Steve O'Neill.
But those who expected miracles from Charley Dressen of the Washington Senators, Bucky Harris of the Detroit Tigers, Lou Boudreau of the Kansas City Athletics and Richards' Baltimore Orioles have been rudely surprised. They'd all gladly settle for the starts their teams made last year.
Here's how the new pilots have fared:
Higgins: With a 7-4 record the Red Sox are tied for second place. A year ago they had a 4-6 record and were tied for seventh place.
Marion: The White Sox' current 6-3 record and first-place standing slightly better than their 7-4 mark is good enough for first place in 1954.
Smith: The Phillies have a 6-6 current record compared to 5-6 last season but they're in the same spot in the standings—fifth.
Dressen: The Senators were tied for second place with a 6-4 record a year ago. Today, they're tied for fourth with a 5-5 mark.
Harris: Same as Dressen—Tigers were second with a 6-4 record last season, now share fourth place with Senators and 5-5 mark.
Boudreau: The Athletics actually were tied for fourth place with a 5-5 record on April 26, 1954. They've dropped seven of 10 games this year and are languishing in seventh place.
East goes West in the American league and vice versa in the National league today and tonight in the first intersectional meetings of the new campaign. The early going found all three major contenders in the AL off fairly well with the Cleveland Indians, New York Yankees and White Sox over .500. In the National league, the Brooklyn Dodgers and Milwaukee Braves are off and running but the World Champion New York Giants are two games under .500.
Richards: A 4-7 record had the Orioles in last place a year ago. Today a 3-9 record has em even deeper in the cellar.

KU's potent crew of javelin throwers came through in fine style last Saturday, picking up first, second, and fourth in their specialty as Don Sneegas upset the dope to win his second straight Relays title with a 217-8# effort.
In doing so, the Lawrence senior upset favored teammate Les Bitner. Bitner had authored the nation's longest throw of the year earlier in the year at the Arkansas Relays, a tremendous heave of 236-01), but had an off day Saturday, throwing only 210-11]. Another KU flinger, sophomore John Parker, who is better known on the basketball courts, picked up fourth place with a cast of 202-2.
Although Sneegas' winning throw was almost 12 feet short of the Relays record of 229-21 authored by Hardin-Simmons' Alton Terry in 1937, it was almost 21 feet farther than Sneegas threw last year when he won with 196-94.
The 100-yard dash, one of the most hotly-contested events on the Relays card, saw KU's Dick Blair finish second to Texas Dean Smith, who was awarded the Outstanding Performer award for his record-tying .094 performance.
Blair thus averted a Texas sweep of the event, as he nosed out Longhorns Jerry Prewit and Al Frieden. The slim junior, who defeated Oklahoma A&M's great J. W. Mashburn in the 2012 at a dual meet last week, ran probably the fastest race of his life in finishing second. His previous best time was .90.6, but he finished only inches behind Smith, and could very well have finished in .99.5. Smith's name will not go into the books as a co-holder of the record because of a strong following wind which aided the runners.
Two other top-notch sprinters did not compete in the event. Florida's Bumper Watson pulled up lame after winning his semi-final heat Saturday morning, and Houston's Larry McBride pulled a muscle at the
