Grid squads start
drills on soggy fields
'Yale 'Harvard' teams include four freshmen
in first string lineup as outdoor practice begins
Outdoors for the first time this
spring, Nebraska's footballers gal
loped and frolicked on the still
soggy sod of the south practice
field.
With plenty of room to get into
full swing, Coach Biff Jones split
the squad into two teams, Yale
under the tutelage of Link Ly
man and W. H. Browne and the
Harvard group under Glenn Pres
nell and the Biffer, himself.
Both groups pitched into work
with plenty of vim and vigor to
keep the March chill out of their
bones. Plays, learned during the
indoor session, were given their
initial workouts as the gridders
were taught their individual jobs
in each.
The two teams worked at op
posite ends of the practice field
and confined their rivalry to the
practice dummies. On the Harvard
first squad were Ray Prochaska
nd George Seem an, ends; Royal
Kahler and Forrest Behm, tackles;
Bill Herrman, Warren Alfson, and
Wayne Blue, alternating at the
guard spots, and Bob Ramey at
center. In the backficld were Roy
Petsch, Herm Rohrig, Vike Fran
cis, and Bob deEruiter.
Ashburn at end.
Lining up on the Yale squad
were Jack Ashburn and Hob Kah
ler, ends; Clarence Herndon and
Leonard Muskin, tackles; George
Able and Hub Monsky, guards.
and Bob Burruss at center. In the
Yale backficld Jack Stubbs, Harry
Honp, Bus Knight, and Theos
Thompson, led the first group.
