Friday September 1, 1961 The Unoolw Star 17 Ml 5 Photo Day Condition Satw Jennings isfied with the condition of the Husker squad. look all right," he grinned several huge tackles thundered by and headed for the showers after the photo session. "It looks like most of them are in reasonably good condition. However, we will have to wait and see how soon they get their second wind after a few practices before being sure. But weight wise, most of 'em look O.K." "I imagine anvone overweight will shed a little weight," Jennings grinned, referring to the scheduled 4 a day practice sessions which start this morning.

The 56 man squad includes Pat Salerno, senior letterman end who underwent knee surgery two weeks ago. He suited up the picture taking, but will not start full scale workouts for several weeks. Late Scratches Jennings reported 3 candidates were scratched from the roster, fullback Steve Olson, who is joining the Marines; and sophomore quarterbacks Jerry Fischer of Omaha and Jerry Hahn of Grand Island. Gary Warden, former squadman from Fremont, was not on hand for pictures, bur Jennings said he was still expected to report. Fullback Noel Martin, senior vet, was on hand, but reported his knee was still "a little weak." "It's just not real strong yet," he said.

"But in another or 3 weeks, it should be in pretty good shape." Jennings announced a division of the squad for the 4 a day sessions. The Reds and Whites will get in two workouts daily, through Saturday and maybe early next week, each unit drilling once in the morning and once in the afternoon. Not Ranked "No attempt has been made to rank the players or divide them with any particular mo tive in mind," Jennings stressed. "We just pulled names out of a hat, so to speak, to line up for the first few days of fundamentals." The Husker coach, starting his 5th season, said it would be "Tuesday or Wednesday" before he ordered any full scale scrimmage. He also decreed that practice sessions, at least for a while, will be closed to the public.

No Secrets "We'll open it a couple of times later," he said. "We won't do anything on a couple of Saturdays that every one didn't see last spring." iACCC VA Ball As NU's Ace (Star Photo) Boofer Ron Meade (20) Pat Clare (44) Holds Kicks Off 1961 Season.

The Detroit Tigers awoke from a brief slump Thursday and moved within lVa games of first place in the American League with an 8 2 victory over the Chicago White Sox. Billy Bruton and ailing Norm Cash crashed two run homers for the Tigers.

The second place Tigers pulled 10 percentage points behind the first place New York Yankees in the eve of their showdown 3 game series starting tonight in Yankee Stadium. By Don Bryant Sports Editor The Star i Lizondro was lifted in the 6th when Burlington scored two unearned runs. Dennis Higgins came on in relief and pitched one hit, shutout ball the rest of the way.

Providing the battle for starting positions are Wayne Smith, 180 pound senior tackle, Rick McMannan, John Schneider, Mike Laughlin, Bernard Rampe and Mike Zeigler, sophomore scatback. "We've got more depth this year, lettermen in every position, and our team speed is pretty good," the Thunder boltcoach remarked. "We're missing individual speed like we had in Larry Arth and Larry Rice last year' Aldrich added. But speed may be found in Zeigler, junior halfback Ryan, or Sanchez who starts very quickly. Several spirited game scrimmages have provided the coaches with optimism about improving 1960's 5 4 record, "The boys have really been hustling, good spirit and morale, chimed in assistant coach Bill Inbody.

In view of the Berlin Crisis and the threat of a nuclear war, the interest probably would be more aptly directed in matters militare. But as might be expected, the inquiries concern football. So, for those who follow the fortunes of the U.S. military academy football teams, here are some capsule reports: AIR FORCEThe Falcons expect to field one team which will be physically stronger than the I960 edition (4 6), but depth is not present. Main strength is in the line where fellows like center E.

C. Newman, guard Ken Needham, tackle Bruce Kohl, and end Dick Brown return. Backfield potential is questionable, with only halfback Don Baucom returning Passing of quarterback Rich Mayo and running of Mike Quinlan departed after 3 good years Running and kicking should be improved and more team speed, plus added weight will be available to coach Ben Martin. NAVY Middie coach Wayne Hardin doesn't mince words. He's "rebuilding," but good.

Reason: 17 lettermen, including player of the year Joe Bellino have moved on to active duty with the fleet and only 10 lettermen, including 2 starters, return In fact, Navy lot its first two backfields, so the top quarterbacking job falls to Ron Klemick, a 3rd stringer last year Everything depends or. how fast the sophomores and juniors progress before the Army game, which decides what kind of a season the Middies had ARMY Cadets lost some fine players including Tom Blanda but they've got enough returnees to insure a respectable season, perhaps even an improvement over the 6 3 1 record in 1960 Blanda's understudy, Dick Eckert, is set to take over at quarterback and veteran runners are back George Kirschenbauer, Al Rushatz, Pete King and Paul Stanley Army has 4 line regulars back, ends John EUerson and Paul Zmuida, tackle Dale Kuhns and guard Mike Casp Biggest problems are at tackle, guard and center, but these are not serious enough to prevent Cadets from being potent. Irish, Too Notre Dame fans usually pop up in great numbers this time of year (even after the 2 8 record last year), so a bonus report on the Fighting Irish is included: NOTRE DAME Joe Kuharich has depth for the first time, with 25 lettermen returning There is also some quality. Daryle Lamonica, 205 pound junior, returns at quarterback and both starting halfbacks Angeio Dabiero (leading ground gainer) and George Sefcik are on hand Up front, co captains Nick Buoniconti and Norb Roy, No. 1 guards last year, are back and the Irish have 4 letterman tackles available The center job is wide open and may be Kuharich's biggest problem spot Notre Dame may not be a great powerhouse, but the Irish will be much improved and a rugged opponent.

It will need to be rugged, too, with a schedule featuring Oklahoma, Purdue, CSC, Michigan State, Northwestern, Navy, Pitt, Syracuse, Iowa and Duke. a sacrifice fly. The 12th Chief run came on a wild pitch. The nightcap was much closer, but not as well played. The Chiefs, who went errorless in the first game, committed 4 blunders in the night game to give Burlington 3 unearned runs.

Lincoln's bats again answered the call to save the win for Jose Lizondro. Larry Johnson, the rookie catcher i 1 just brought up from Class by the Chiefs, rounded out scoring with a line drive home run against the wind in left field. It was his 2nd homer for the Chiefs in just 4 games. First Gams BURLINGTON LINCOLN abrtbl abrhbi 8.

SITES TO LACK OFFENSIVE SKILL 16 Pius Vets Leave Doubts By Larry Novicki The Lincoln Chiefs came through with hard and timely hitting Thursday night to win both games of a doubleheader from Burlington, 12 3 and 5 3. 21 Hit Spree The Chiefs collected 21 hits in the two games, including 5 doubles, a triple and a home run. All 17 of their runs were earned.

The wins gave Lincoln a lafer hold on 4th place in the Three I League. However, they could not gain on 3rd place Fox Cities, which won a pair from lowly Des Moines. Big doings are slated for tonight's single game with Burlington. Shrine Night. It will be Shrine Night, and Lincoln's Sesostris Temple will be out in full regalia.

The famed Motor Patrol, clowns and other entertainment specialties will treat the fans beginning at 7:30. Game time is 8:00. In addition, General Manager Roger Bottorff has promised free candy to all the youngsters at the park. In the 7 inning opener Thursday, Lincoln picked up 12 runs on 10 timely hits. Doubles by Bruce Andrew, and Bill Di Crosta and singles by Dayton and Gary Johnson each drove in two runs.

Even More DiCrosta singled home another run, Larry Johnson accounted for one with a double and winning pitcher Ron Pas sarro knocked in another with Cincinnati Team Still Undefeated Lincoln Star Special Hastings Cincinnati took advantage of 8 Brooklawn, N.J., errors here Thursday night to take a 7 3 win from the easterners in the American Legion junior baseball Little World Series. Ohio representative, champion of the tourney 6 times, thus became the only undefeated team in the double elimination affair. Cincinnati managed only one earned run off Broowlawn hurler Richard Laxtan, but took advantage of numerous fielding lapses on the part of the losers. Scott Simonds scattered 10 hits in going the route for his second win of the tourney. Cincinnati will face Omaha Store in Saturday night's semifinal.

Brooklawn will meet Phoenix, tonight. Phoenix advanced i a 5 4 win over Billings, Mont. Thursday afternoon. The southwest regional winners scored the winning run in the 11th inning when left fielder Greg Sorenson dropped a perfect squeeze bunt with the bases loaded.

The Tigers, who lost two straight to Chicago, broke out with 14 hits in support of Paul Foytack's strong pitching before 25,504 fans. Bruton got the Tigers off ahead in the first inning with his 16th homer and Cash belted his 32nd with Al Kaline on base in a 3 run 5th. Cash, leading the league in batting, was back in the line Mick Tags 48th But Yanks Fall HR MARK, TOO Minneapolis St.

Paul (fl) Mickey Mantle clubbed his 48th homerun and the New York Yankees set a new American League homer mark Thursday but Minnesota survived the assault and posted a 5 4 victory. The win gave the Twins the rubber game of this 3 game set and made the final record between the two teams 14 4 for the Yankees. The loss left the Yankees VA games ahead of Detroit, 8 2 winner over Chicago. Mantle's homer just inside the leftfield foul pole came off lefty Jack Kralick and left the switchhitter one game ahead of Babe Ruth's record 60 pace of 1927. Roger Maris, who has 51 homers and is now 6 games ahead of Ruth, went hitless in 4 officials appearances.

After Mantle homered to lead off the fourth inning, Bill Skowron followed one out later with his 23rd circuit clout to give the Yankees 194 homers for the season. That eclipsed the AL mark of 193 set by the Yankees in 1960. The major league record of 221 is held jointly by the 1917 New York Giants and the 1956 Cincinnati Reds. Hector Lopez added another roundtripper for New York, hitting it with Mantle on base in the 6th. Minnesota plated its 5 runs before a man was retired in the 3rd inning.

A two run single by Bob Allison, a two run homer by Jim Lemon and Harman Killebrew's single got the runs.

Except for a few with' obstructed vision, re served seats for the first game are sold out. It's a BIG series in every respect.

The importance of the games, for one thing. A Yankee sweep would virtually sew up the pennant for the champions, although there still is a 4 game weekend series between the two club scheduled in Detroit. The games are tremendous ly important to Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle In their quest to equal or better Babe Kuth's one season home run mark of 60 set In 1927. Both are ahead of The Babe's pace for that year, but have been having their troubles lately and time is running out. The Yankees will lead with their ace, southpaw Whitey Ford (22 3), in the first game, with Ralph Terry (11 2) and Bill Stafford (12 7) following in that order.

Detroit is expected to go with Don Mossi (11 3) tonight, with Frank Lary (19 7) and Jim Bunnlng (15 10) to follow.

Braves' Dazzles HOMER, Milwaukee (P) The Milwau kee Braves bounced back into 3rd place by edging the Los Angeles Dodgers 2 1 Thursday night as rookie southpaw Bob Hendley outdueled Don Drysdale with the help of a homer by Frank Thomas and a run scored on a double steal. Victory enabled the Braves to climb past the San Francisco Giants and move to within ZV games of the second place Dodgers.

The loss dropped Los Angeles 3 games behind the front running Cincinnati Reds who were idle. Hendley scattered 6 hits In going 9 innings for the second time in his brief major league career. The 22 year old lefthander earned his 5th victory in 8 decisions. I Thomas led off the second in nm 2 with his 27th homer, a towering blast into the center field bleachers. The Braves added the decisive run in the 3rd.

Lee Hendley Dodgers DOUBLE STEAL WIN 2 7 Maye opened with his second of his 3 singles, moved to second on a sacrifice and took 3rd on an infield out. Drysdale got behind Hank Aaron and the Dodgers elected to pass the Milwaukee slugger. That set the stage to pull off the double steal.
