Kansas Drops Second Half Of Twin Bill With Huskers
Special To The Daily Kansan
Lincoln, Neb.-Turning six hits into five runs, the Nebraska Cornhuskers won their second victory, 5 to 2, in the final half of a double bill Wednesday. The Husker's capped Tuesday's contest 10 to 1.
The Kansans took the lead first when Bud French banged out a 360-foot homer over the centerfield fence in the first of the fourth. However,
Two New 'Sox' Finally Shine
He got it yesterday with one swing of the bat by Vern Stephens and three innings of relief pitching by Ellis Kinder. Stephens smashed an 11th inning home run that broke up the ball game in a 4 to 3 victory, the second straight over the Tigers at Boston, and Kindler held Detroit to one hit and no runs for his first victory in a Red Sox uniform.
New York, May 6—(UP)—Business man Tom Yawkey can't be blamed for wanting a little return on an investment that cost him nine players and something like $300,000. Today, after two weeks in which it looked like the Browns billed him, he counted his first dividend.
More than that, it was the first time he has even pitched a ball in competition. Like Jack Kramer, the other star pitcher who came to the Red Sox from St. Louis, he had been laid up with injuries, but now it looked as if he was ready to go. Stephens' First Hit
Stephens, batting a meek 244 with only 13 hits in 54 times at bat, had gone hitless yesterday until his game-breaking homer. The Red Sox had to come from behind with two runs to tie the score at 3-all in the ninth on singles by Johnny Pesky, Ted Williams, and Stan Spence, and a wild throw by losing pitcher Dizzy Trout. It was Boston's fourth straight victory and a heartening one because Kinder indicated he was ready for starting duty.
Walt Masterson held the Chicago White Sox to four hits—two of them in the last inning—as the Washington Senators scored a 6 to 0 victory in a night game at Washington. It was Masterson's first win in two decisions, and the first shutout for the Sox in 40 regular and exhibition games this season.
The Pirates, continuing their onslaught against top flight pitchers, won their sixth straight, 3 to 2, from the Braves at Pittsburgh. They beat right-handed ace Johnny Sain on four singles which produced two runs in the ninth, Danny Murtaugh's blow bringing home the winning run.
Yesterday Pittsburgh maltreated Boston's southpaw ace, Warren Spahn, who was behind 3 to 0 when rain saved him, and blasted Ewell Blackwell, Cincinnati's star, in the game before that.
Reds End Slump
The Beds came out of a four-game losing streak by topping the Giants, 5 to 2, at Cincinnati. They scored all of their runs in the first three innings. Then breezed in behind the five-hit pitching of young Kent Peterson.
Grady Hatton led the assault with a homer and a double. The Giant runs were homers by Johnny McCarthy and Bobby Thomson, giving the club a total of 18 in 15 games.
The Phils won a costly victory at Chicago, 13 to 9, when pitcher Lyn Rowe suffered a fractured thumb on his glove hand knocking down a line drive.

Nebraska came back in their halt on the same inning with a three-run barrage to gain a lead which they never relinquished.
Bob Grogan opened up Nebraska's half of the fatal inning by polling a four-bagger in the same spot that French had. W. Maser was then walked and Bob Cerv and Bob Schleiger followed with singles, scoring Maser. Cerv came home when Dil Blatchford grounded into a force out.
The Huskers added single runs in the fifth and eighth innings and Kansas produced one in the ninth.
The Jayhawker uprising in the final frame came after two outs. Pinch hitter Dick Gilman, who was charged with Tuesday's loss, was hit by a pitched ball and scored when Scott Kelly doubled into left

Iowa State Star Gets Ames Job

Lexington, Ky.-(UP)—Workmen tearing down an old building found a flag that probably dates back to the fight for independence. The flag was badly faded, but still discernible were 12 stars in a circle, one star in the center of the circle, and two red and one white stripes.
