Qiiefs Lose 6-5 Despite Selinger Unearned Run Gives Bees Win Over Invading JAncoln Burlington, la. An unearned run in the 8 th inning gave Burlington a 6-5 Three-I League win over Lincoln before 1,000 fans Wednesday night. With the score knotted 5-5, pitcher Tom Sisk and veteran Bobby Sanchez walked. manager Ira inson then jerked starter A1 Brice and put in Jerry Moeller. Brice upset with strategy and kicked up such a fuss the umpires thumbed him off the field.

Chico Tellcria, the first batter to face Moeller, rolled one to A1 Bullock at second. Bullock fired to second base, but A1 Weis dropped the ball to load the sacks. Glen Merklen lofted a sacrifice fly to left to score Sisk with the winning run. The untimely error erased the heroic slugging of the hottest hitter in the Jennings Hoping Big 8 Poll Is Wrong Sees Close Race for Grid Laurels -t By Dick Becker The last time a coach disagreed with the Big 8 preseason football poll conducted by Don Pierce of Kansas, that particular coach win a game and finish out the season. Vince DiFrancesca of Iowa State was the dissenter.

He objected to placing his team 7th in the at- that-time 7-team race. Now poll is out again. It lists: 1 2, Kansas, 3, Missouri, 4, Colorado, 5, Nebraska, 6 Oklahoma State, 7, Iowa State, 8 Kansas State. Bill Jennings of Nebraska wants no part of Di- fate. can only say that I hope it (the poll) is Bill declared.

certainly can see one of the closest races in the league in many, many years. The poll indicates ihat. rugged non-conference games will have a lot to do with deciding how things come out in the Nebraska has Texas, nesota and Army as its foes outside of the league. Oklahoma tackles Northwestern, Pittsburgh and Texas. Kansas has Texas Christian, Syracuse and Iowa Missouri faces SMU, Penn State and Air Academy.

Colorado has Baylor, Arizona and A i Force Academy. The others as difficult assignments. Jennings will appear Friday at Kansas City along with the other Big 8 coaches before an alumni luncheon and meetings of the press. Jennings has reported the loss of the Mrst player from his 3-deep lineups assigned after spring practice. Larry Krause, sophomore center from Scottsbluff, will be forced to lay out of football for a year with a knee injury.

There has been one addition to the group. Ed Richards of Grand Island will report for fall drills on Aug. 31 as a left tackle. Dropped from the early roster were tackle Don Ileldt of Lisco, end Phil Case of Tekamah, halfback Gary Larsen of Harlan, halfback Roger Myers of Grand Island; and tackle Jim Raschke of Omaha. That leaves the 3-deep assignments going into fall drills this way: Lfft Jim HuRe, BUI Macdonald, Dick McDaniel.

Sure, there are a lot of senior champions, but look coming up. There is quite an impressive group of golfers cata- gorized as because of their ages, certainly not because of their abilities.

Jules VaiiDersarl. Tom McGovern, Charlie Borner, Tom Williamson. Bob Olte- man, Bob Don Dermeyec and Bill Harder are in this group. And it also includes Rob Cunningham, Bill Welch, Bob Shields, Ron Rick Purvis, Larry Webster and Duane Nelson to name only a few. Most of them are just sophomores and juniors in high school.

City Junior Champion Charlie Borner is a 9 th grader. building strong prep teams, especially at Pius and Southeast. If anybody wants to hazard a guess, Pius and SE should dominate high school play the next two years. The club pros are the first to admit that these are the next Lincoln and Nebraska champs. Not only do the pros know it, but the seniors do too.

The present champions are plugging for the juniors. Of course, the champions going to step aside and let these boys move into their limelight. natural, nobody is just going to hand over something as big as a championship to anybody not even their sons without a fight. Sure, the juniors have a long way to go. They may get there faster, but still a long haul.

Getting to the top ill any sport Is rough, and there is somebody around to know you out. Two of them Borner and participating in the National Javcee meet in Jules, at 16, is stealing the golf events from many seniors at Hillcrest. grabbed several sweepstakes events at HCC this summer, as well as carding a 69 last week. You argue with the scores turning in. good if they keep up the amount of work they are putting into the game, they are going to produce some great golf.
