By Dow Bryant Sunday Columnist Lincoln Outfielder Dean Look is a highly-regarded young man in the future plans of the Chicago White Sox. But he may not be the only member of his family to attract the baseball scouts. Dean--who reportedly received at least $45,000 from Bill Veeck to ink a Chisox contract--really beams when he talks about his 17-year-old brother, currently propping in Lansing, the Look hometown. "He can pitch, catch and hit the ball," Dean said. "The other day he pitched a no-hitter and supplied the winning runs with two triples and a home run.

"The last 1 heard, his high school team had a 6-3 record and he had pitched all the wins." So look for another Look to become a bonus baby--if Little Look continues to mow 'em down. Dean enjoys chatting about football, too. It's understandable, though, since he was an All American quarterback at Michigan State. How do the Spartans stack up for 1960? "They're loaded," Dean grinned. "Boy, they've got all the horses and should really be tough.

"If one boy lands the quarterback job, they can put 11 guys who all weigh oxer 195 pounds on the field. And they've got speed--the 4 top backs are 10 seconds or better." Sure Cure Pug Williamson, another Chief outfielder who schooled at Oklahoma State, mentioned fumbling and how tough it looked to quarterback the and not fumble continuously. "It's just a matter of concentration," Dean said. "You just have to make sure you don't fumble. "I remember fumbling about 11 times once, but the coach (Duffy Daughterly) developed a cure for fumbling.

I had to take 4 laps around the field for every fumble in practice. "I almost ran myself to death. I'd finally come in from practice and hardly be able to move. But I'll say one thing for Duffy--he stayed right out there with those of us who were taking punishment laps, no matter how late it got. "And I soon learned to concentrate more on ball handling and quit fumbling." Dean is learning concentration again.

But this time it's in baseball and he's trying to develop the hitting and fielding sKills that will propel him to the Chicago White Sox. Don't bet against him--and keep an eye out for that little brother, too. Oklahoma Staters Tip Huskers Twice Cowboys Now 6-0 in Nebraska Nine Falls, 2-0, 7-2 Stillwater, Okla.

Dick Soergel pitched his second shutout of the season as he walked none, fanned 7 and retired the last 15 batters he faced in the first game. His record for the season is now 6-0. Third baseman Dale Dehart hit a 4th-inning home run to give the Cowboys a one- run lead. In the second game, Oklahoma State exploded for 6 runs in the 4th and 5th Ken Rusinger almost kept the rally going but Robert Andrew hauled down his 2-0' drive against the wall in right center. Andrew crashed into the fence but held on to the ball.

But the coach blamed that on two hard workouts Thursday and Friday, something not ordinarily done before a game. He wasn't however, taking anything away from a good Alumni team. "Maybe this will help us to be a better team," he said. "You know a game like this is hard to evaluate. The Alums are always good.

They were real tough inside. We couldn't do anything there against them. "That Adduci looked like a freight train going through there a couple of times. "One other i we learned. We must sustain our blocks.

Those big guys in the middle really taught us something and we either tackled poorly or I wish we had that Tom Kramer back for another year." One thing continually perplexed Jennings. "We still can't catch the ball." he declared. "We should have had several interceptions. We dropped a couple that were right in our hands." Jennings was pleased with the way Ron Meade ran the Varsity. "It's tough for the Alums to get an offense going in such a short he said, "but they still give you a game." Jennings would make no attempt to compare this game with last year's when the Varsity won 22-0.

"It just can't be he said. "But we are looking forward to seeing the movies of the NT. IV a and Refl RiC rare, none JWw. and S't T-- I Glr.rj- Banny 4 40 3 L-air PBtnam 'R HfoOiVml. La4v Say TO 3.40 flO ten SUPER-MODIFIED STOCK CAR RACES Sunday, May 8th 8:00 P.M.

LAUNDRY CLEANERS GRAND OPENING Sunday, May 8 7 EVENTS LINCOLN SPEEDWAYS Capitol Beach NU Varsity Gets 'Opening' Victory 144) Verdict Over Tough Alums; Meade, Vacanti Game Sparklers Continued from Page ID. with a 12-yarder to the Alumni two-yard line. Thornton, a powerhouse i action, fought over for 1 score, Meade kicked the first of his two extra points. That drive, the only sue- cessful one of the day, went 60 yards in 9 plays. The only other score came early in the 4th period when tackle Roland McDole fell on a Vacanti fumble on the Alumni 17.

It took just two shots to score. Lost on Downs Pat Clare, looking the best he has in Scarlet garb, ran the dive buck for 9 yards before fullback Noel Martin, fighting and squirming, went 8 yard's for the touchdown. The Alums never made a serious bid to score. They got to the 32-yard line of the Varsity in the first half but lost the ball on a fumble. They made it to the 21 in the second half with their best march of the day as i McCashland, Fischer and Tom Kramer ran well.

But the ball was lost on downs as the Varsity stiffened. Vacanti, playing most of the game, hadn't lost his magic touch but the Varsity defenders hounded the receivers too closely. The best Alumni play of the game was saved until just before halftime. i Fischer got himself hidden on the sidelines and Vacanti hit him with a sleeper pass for 40 yards. On the last play of the half McCashland ran the draw play for 7 yards to the Varsity 19, the closest Alum effort of the game.

Top Alum run was a 19- yard scamper by Kormek. Nick Adduci, the 1950 fullback, ripped off a couple of fine runs of 101 yards. Vacanti Outstanding Pat Fischer peeled off dashes of 25 and 18 yards from the quarterback position but the Varsity's best weapon was Mcacle's passing. The Varsity missed numerous opportunities at interceptions. Vacanli a named outstanding Alumni player.

He played nearly the entire way on offense, surprising the Varsity several times with runs. Over-all it was a Varsity performance that didn't bring elation, nor despondencey. The Alumni team is always tough, refusing to give any ground during the infighting. Varsity passing sharper than in the past few seasons but the passing was far better than the receiving. Additional backfield speed is present, but it didn't give the Alums too much trouble.

Texas Next The Varsity picked up a net 205 yards on the ground and 117 in the air. The Alums rushed for 128 and passed for 89. As the Varsity made 152 on the ground and 53 in the air the first half, it was apparent that the undergrads did do as well in the second half. Jennings, expressing thanks that the spring program was worked out to allow drills next week, believes many of the flaws can be worked out. That Sept.

17 opener at Texas isn't too far a a when you consider the number of practices between now and then.
