KU Takes Third Straight On Holler's 5-Hitter
The KU ball team extended its winning streak to three games yesterday by defeating Washburn University 7-0 at Quigley Field.
Righthander Tom Holler won his second victory of the season as he went all the way in a seven-inning contest. Holler gave up no runs on five hits, none of which were for extra bases.
The hitting attack was led by centerfielder Bob Marshall, third baseman Roger Hill and catcher Carl Lauterjung as they all delivered extra base hits in the time of need. The offensive attack netted eight hits.
So far this season the team has out-scored its opponents 47 to 20. The biggest asset of the team to date has been its ability to capitalize on the enemies' mistakes. Up to now the hitting has shown up very well while the fielding has left room for improvement. While pitching has been effective, the hurlers will have to concentrate on giving fewer bases on ball.

Roberts Draws Starting Role
By United Press International
Robin Roberts, now almost as much a part of opening day tradition as the ceremonial first pitch and the march to the flagpole, topped the list of first game pitching assignments today by drawing the honor for the 10th straight season.
Roberts has been first on the firing line for the Phils since Opening Dav. 1950, when he hurled a nine-hitter to beat the Brooklyn Dodgers, 9-1.
In those nine previous first-day assignments, Roberts has pitched a complete game seven times, including one 12-inning game. He has won four (including a three-hitter over the Giants in 1955), lost four, and last year was the first time he wasn't involved in the final decision.
Roberts this year will be toiling at night as the Phils open at home Friday against the Cincinnati Reds.
The season officially opens Thursday with one game in each league
