games of the season for both teams.
The Husker victory was largely
due to a wild throw to home plate in
the eighth inning by Bishop, Okla-
homa shortstop. This error netted
Nebraska three runs. The slo
of the game is attributed to the mud-
dy field.
Dolph allowed the visitors seven
hits with two three-base 1 ;i- and one
hommer included, lie kapt ' <
ties well scattered, however, and the
Nebraska victory was due 11 ore to
errors than poor pitching. In the
fatal eighth frame, only one hit was
allowed the Huskers and that v. as a
single. Ziegenbein lveld the Uklaho-
ma team to three hifs.
