'We need more speed."
This was the opinion of Head
Coach Bernie Masterson after the
University of Nebraska football
team wound up its spring train
ing grind Wednesday. Through
out the sessions backfield candi
dates especially were not up to
the fleet-footed standards de
manded for a successful use of
the "T': formation.
Only Dick Hutton, swift Au
burn left halfback, exhibited the
breakaway sprinting that charac
terizes the "T", and with Half
back Cletu Fischer on the side
lines during the entire spring
training period, Bernie did not
uncover any other backs who
could step out and carry the mail
in the quick opening plays the
team has been using.
Jerry Moore, Walthill fullback
whose tremendous driving power
made him one of the hardest
driving backs in the Big Six last
fall ,is a notoriously slow starter.
This fact was appai-ent even when
Moore was operating from Potsy
Clark's single wing formations.
Just how Masterson and the
rest of the Nebraska coaching
staff are going to counteract this
lack of speed is a pertinent ques
tion. The hopes for additional
breakaway backs lie with the in
coming crop of freshmen who will
report to Bernie in the fall. Ath
letes who are now in high school
will have to furnish the speed in
the brck'field, while the men now
on hand provide the bulk and
momentum.
Another weak spot in the Ne
braska backfield situation is the
need for a capable passer. Tiny
Dick Saladen was the only Scar
let back who was able to connect
with any regularity when the
team took to the air, but the Red
Cloud performer tips the scales at
a mere 130 pounds and cannot be
expected to carry the brunt of the
passing chores. Indications are
that September will bring a few
more pigskin pitchers into the
Hnsker camp. Dick Thompson
Till be on hand, and Roy Long,
Blair halfback, is also expected
to report next fall.
One of the pleasant surprises of
the backfield situation was the
showing of Jim Myers, York ath
lete, who confined his football
activities to intramural compe
tition last fall. Myers was a con
sistent scorer during the spring
scrimmages and ran well from the

left halfback spot, in addition to
punting acceptably.
Up in the front line, the pic
ture has resumed the beefy over
tones of former Nebraska football
years. A host of burly linemen
cavorted during the spring drills,
and Line Coach Gomcr Jones was
able to present a forward wall
averaging over 200 pounds. The
end positions are a bit uncertain,
but tackle and guard spots are
well filled, while Bob Costello,
Jim Thompson and Dick Taylor
worked satisfactorily at the cen
ter post.
Eddie Schwartckopf and Fred
Lorens are as rugged a pair of
guards as can be found anywhere
in the midlands, and these
scrappy linemen are ably sup
ported by Bob Lipps, Lincoln
gridder who opened the spring
season at a right halfback spot
but transferred to the guard spot
he occupied during the 1945 sea
son, and Keith Manning, husky
David City ace,
Cari Samuelson, a 230 pound
pulverized from Grand Island;
Bob Tegt, John Sedlacek and
Francis Leik, of the tackle can
didates, are all worthy of the
Husker "big red line' 'tradition.
If Center Joe Partington re
turns next fall, along with Charley
Duda, Jack Hazen and Bob De
viney, the line situation will be
well in hand.
Attendance at spring drills was
near 70 throughout the six week
period which began on March 11.
The high water mark was reached
during the first two weeks when
almost 150 gridders were in suit.

Male Students Not
In ROTC Required
To Take Swimming
Effective June 1, all male stu
dents of the University of Nebras
ka who are required to take four
semesters of physical education in
lieu of military science will be re
quired to register for at least one
semester of swimming, according
to Louis E. Means, director of
student physical welfare.
In addition to this requirement,
all men of the university who are
not required to register for physi
cal education are urged to register
for at least one semester of swim
ming before their graduation.
This new requirement grows out
of the established findings during
the war which shows that a
knowledge of swimming and wa
ter activity saved lives of our
fighting men on all fronts.
