at these limbering-up and condi
tioning drills during this after
noon's workout.
No Contact Work.
Lew has not altered his plans
to have no contact work during
spring practice. The Husker
mentor still feels that he cannot
afford to risk his small squad in
scrimmages.
Most of the candidates who have
reported to date have had previ
ous high school or collegiate ex
perience. 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. Nelson and Kops are run
ning the sprints in track work
outs, while Hollins is tossing the
weights.

Harold W. Andersen
Grid Coach A. 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.
