LINCOLN, NEB., FRIDAY, JUNE 14, 1968—P.MAfter 6-5 John S u s c e disposed of Oklahoma State, 7-1 in less th^n two hours earlier in the evening, theTrojans managed to playpast the midnight hour for the second straight night before edging St. John’s, 7-6.SIU and the Redmen, with one loss apiece, will battle at 5:30 p.m. Friday at Rosenblatt Stadium and USC will try to get to bed early after tangling with North Carolina State at 8.The Trojans found theirhands full with St. John’s. A grand slam homer (his second of the year) by Dan Colombo in the sixth inninghad put the Redmen in a commanding position.But as they had done all year, Southern Cal came“storming” back to tie it at 6-6 and went in front, 7-6 in the eighth before rains came.For over an hour there wassome doubt as to whether thegame could be continued. Bymidnight, however, it w a s resumed with the Trojans winning. Had the weather washed out the eighth inning run, the entire tie game would have been replayed Friday with that day’s games moved to Saturday.Likable Southern Illinois
