BEGINNING MARCH 12
Lentz Center to Display Ivory
The Lentz Center for Asian Culture will offer its spring show, Ivories from the Lentz Center Collections, from March 12 to June 27. A public reception will be from 5-7pm March 26.
The Lentz Center's ivory collection features pieces donated by several families. The display will include Chinese figures from the Donald and Velma Lentz collection, and the pieces from Patricia F. King and her brother, Michael F. Flannigan, include large and small fishing and pleasure boats, carved tusks, snuff bottles and small elephants. Items from Clifton and Mary Hillegass include two carved boxes, a statue of the Goddess of Mercy, Guanyin, and a Ming Dynasty plaque carved with the depiction of a scholar and a calligraphic inscription.
Although the Lentz Center usually has some of its ivory on exhibition, this is the first time the whole collection will be on view. The collection consists of more than 50 pieces of ivory. It is now illegal to import ivory because poachers have killed many elephants for the purpose of selling their tusks. All of the ivories in the Lentz Center predate this law.

Field
The Husker baseball team takes up residence
at home this week with a home opener hosting Western Illinois on Tuesday and
Wednesday and a weekend set opposite Boston College beginning on Friday.
The Huskers carry a 6-3 record after their first nine games, played on the road
in Albuquerque, Minneapolis (indoors) and Houston.
Nebraska baseball is in its second year under coach Mike Anderson. The 2004 team
was ranked as high as No. 13 before a short-lived hitting drought led to successive
losses to Florida State and Minnesota.
The Huskers have made postseason play a tradition.
Since 1999, they have made five straight NCAA Regional appearances – highlighted by back-to-back College
World Series appearances in 2001 and 2002 – and have won two Big 12 regular-season
and three conference tournament titles.
This year's Big 12 baseball tournament is set for May 26-30 in Arlington, Texas.
The Road to Omaha, 2004 edition, begins on June 4 with NCAA Regionals, and ends
with the College World Series, to run from June 18-28 at Omaha's Johnny Rosenblatt
Stadium.
Tickets for Husker baseball, and all Husker sports, can be purchased through
the athletic department website at huskers.com, or by phone at 472-3111.
