Outstanding among can didates reporting for the first time were Gordon Ehlers, Columbus, lineman; Al Kirlin, all-state end selection from Lincoln Northeast last year; Doug Nelson, halfback with prep experience at Wausa; Dale Preston, six-man veteran from Pleasanton; and Dick Koch, scat back who played his prep football in St. Louis. Trio Work on Track. Nelson will join Buzz Hollins, Valley fullback, and Lyle Kops, tackle from Bassett, in dividing time between spring grid drills and practice with Ed Weir's track squad.

J. Lewandowski's decision to eliminate contact work in spring drills was a wise move, as we see it. With material def initely limited and several of the candidates having little or no previous football experience, Lew andowski feels that he is not jus tified in holding scrimmages and risking needless injuries. Lew's decision is undoubtedly the most logical solution to the problem of holding practice ses sions with material limited in both numbers and experience. Loss of a few men by injuries in scrim mage could very easily knock practice plans into a cocked hat. Ed Weir's Scarlet trackmen ISC Track Bill Is Announced AMES. Ia.
