I Sunday, March 10, 1940 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Huskers get outside drill; stiff workout The Huskers donned their foot tall togs and went outside yester day for the first time this spring. Coach Biff .Tones took advantage of the first outdoor drill and sent his squad through a rather stiff workout. Running plays, plenty of blocking, kicking and passing were all stressed by the "Biffer." The squad had little contact work but next week, weather permit ting, the Haivards will scrimmage deal old Eli. Fundamentals will take up a large share of the squad's time in the spring period, and the squad will add a number of plays to their repertoire. Freshman and varsity material will be given a chance to display their wares, and Jones in dicated that there would be fre ,quent changes in squad personnel as to team assignments. The success of spring practice is important to the team's success in its fall campaign and there is a lot of work to be done according to Jones. The squad will continue to work outdoors as long as the weather permits, and when they are forced to stay in, plays will be reviewed, movies will be shown and other bits of "school work" run over. Next Saturday the coaching staff will run their charges through a long scrimmage drill for the visiting coaches and athletes attending the state basketball tournament.
