Husker Gridders Wind Up
Pre-Easter Training Drills
Spring grid trainees wound up their pre-Easter tactics with ;
spirited session on the athletic practice field west of the Coliseum
Wednesday afternoon.
"Potsy" Clark sent his huge squad through well-ordered drills,
concentrating on fundamental plays and formations.
Main point of interest on the
field were the passing exercises.
Sparking these drills were re
turning letterman Jim "Squat"
Myers of York, frosh Gerald Fer
guson from Scottsbluff and three
time letter-winer Frank "Junior"
Collopy, also of Scottsbluff.
Squad Split Up
The coaching staff, one of the
largest seen around here for
quite some time, split the squad
into four groups which alternated
passing, running from formation
and charging. Clark spent most of
the time watching his passers,
often illustrating just what he
wanted himself. The new coach
showed as much spirit as his
charges.
After the drills, the squad was
split into teams and they played
touch for the last half hour before
leaving the field.
Players Hustle
The hustle which characterized
the practice was good to see. The
conches kept the entire squad on
the ball throughout the period.
Competition among the backs
was especially spirited. Clark still
has most of his backfield candi
dates experimenting at as many
as three positions. Tom Novak,
fullback ace of 1946, showed a lot
of his old drive in the same spot
in the single wing otfense. The
Omaha charger did some effective
passing along with his running
chores during the afternoon.

"THE BEST IS YET TO BE"
The telephone will be seventy-two years
old this year. Its development within a
single lifetime has been a modern miracle.
Yet it is only the beginning.
There are any number of men in the
telephone business today some just start
ing out who will see greater progress
than the past has ever known:
Year by year the next half century will
be increasingly theirs. New leaders will
appear from among them. Step by step,
rung by rung, they will mount the ladder
to the top. For telephone management is
employee management and comes up
from the ranks.
There will be more good jobs for qual
ified men in the telephone business in
1958 and 1998 than now. It just can.'t
help being that way. For of all the busi
nesses and professions, there are few more
interesting and" necessary.
So the future is bright for
those who make telephony
their life work. For them, "The
best is yet to be."
