New Oklahoma Coach Jones
Inherits Successful Position
A third quarter start is bet
ter than none at all. Gomer
Jones, Oklahoma's new foot
ball coach, kicked off a tardy
high school athletic visitation
tour Monday, delayed by
events beyond his control.
A few hours after being ap
pointed by the Regents Sun
day to succeed Bud Wilkin
son, Jones buckled on his seat
belt and hurried into action.
He wants to visit personal
ly as many prospects as he
can before Feb. 11, the Big
Eight conference Letter of
Intent signing date.
"Jay O'Neal has made a
fine start organizing our re
cruiting program," Jones
told his first news conference.
He divulged that Drake Keith
will probably be his line
coach. He plans to hire two
new assistants, one who will
work with backs.
Bud Wilkinson, whose fan
tastic 17-year record at Okla
homa ended at 139 wins, 17
losses, 4 ties for .837 and a
6-2 bowl mark besides, is
staying on as athletic director
until March 1. Meanwhile the
athletic council will soon se
lect the new director, prob
ably Jones, and also recom
mend a salary and a contract
length for Jones.
Wilkinson's career record
against the eight opponents
he meets every year was
17-0 over Kansas State, 17-0
over Oklahoma State, 16-1
over Missouri, 15-2 over Iowa
State, 14-1-2 over Kansas, 11-2-1
over Colorado, 14-3 over
Nebraska and 9-8 over Texas.
Jones is Oklahoma's 14th
head football coach. Records

Rood Awakening
By Mick Rood
Sports Editor
It is an interesting task, writing sports. Jargons and
phrases of this world in itself are a plague to those scholas
tics who can see little value in the thousands of straining
bodies and their supporting cast of advertisers or sport
writers and publicists.
Indeed the sports world has developed a tenacious
pride that often wants to defy criticism. To many athletes
and exponents of sports, theirs is a noble cause a singular
achievement that requires dedication, hard work and
discipline.
To anyone who has participated in sports, the "realm"
possesses an inherent self-satisfaction that is not to be
replaced. It is an instinctive drive, a kind of intangible goal.
It's here to stay.
Sports can be criticized. What can be more shallow
than prancing around a field with a leather sphere attempt
to move it so far and mangle the individuals across the way.
The commentary associated with all this foolishness
becomes ungrammatical, repititious, and uncreative. The
jargons and phrases describe the same actions over and
over again.
But for every worn out word and every over-used
phrase, there is an accomplishment achieved or a goal
reached.

Nebraska's indoor track
squad moves into the final
week of practice before en
countering opening foe Okla
homa State on February 8.
Coach Frank Sevigne faces
a major rebuilding job if he
hopes to repeat last year's
Big 8 Championship. Ten men
are gone from last winter's
team which scored a decis
sive 47-35 victory over sec
ond place Missouri in t h e
championship meet at Kan
sas City.
Returning point winners
from the championship con
test include seniors Gil Gebo,
who placed second in the 600
yard run and anchored the
winning mile relay team, and
John Portee, who placed third
in the 1000 yard run. Other
returning point getters at the
Kansas City meet were Kent
McCloughan, second in the
60 yard dash, Jim VV e n d t,
fourth in the half-mile run,
and Dick Strand who ran on
the relay team.
The Huskers scored heavily
in the dashes and hurdles
throughout last season and
could do so again. Although
McCloughan may be the sole
entry in the 60 for the opening
meet, sophomore Lynn Head
ley is expected to contend sec
ond semester. Headley will al
so see action in the high hurd
dles, an event In which be
placed fourth in the Big
8 postal last year.
Running both the high andj
low nuraies wtu De bod Honn
and Ron Moore. Moore, who
won the highsat the cham
pionship meet two years ago,
is back after missinff most
of last season due to dis-1
ciplinary action.
j
Those running the middle
distances include Strand, !
Wendt, Gebo and Jim Murphy i
and George O'Boyle. Promis-'
ing newcomers are Dave
Crook and Tucker Lillis. Both
Crook and Lillis ran on Nil's
winning Orange Bowl mile re
lay as did Strand and Gebo.
Second semester, Jamaican
Peter Mills is expected to add
strength.
Distance runners will be
headed by Larry Toothaker
and Peter Scott. Toothaker,
a junior, will probably con
centrate on the two mile while
sophomore Scott will run the
mile. John Protee, who will
run the 1000, will probably see
limited action in the mil e.
Stuart Tucker is expected to
go with Toothaker in the two
mile.
In the field events, the
Huskers should be able to
improve on last year's one
point showing at Kansas City.
Competing in the shot will be
senior Roland Johnson and
sophomore Jim Beltzer. High
jumpers will be juniors Jack ;
Cramer and Ken Cook. Broad i
jumpers included Vic Brooks1
and Juris Jesifers. P o 1 e :
vaulters will be Jesifers and
newcomer Larry Shineman.
State. The Cowboys have twd
good pole vaulters capable of
16 feet Mickey Bailer and
Preston Holsinger. ,
Outside of the pole vault the
Cowboys may be hard pressed
to beat the Huskers. Charles
Strong, who ran the dashes
and competed in the broad
jump although he was prim
arily a quarter miler, has
graduated.
