THE NEBRASKAN
Pros 'Must Hustle'
Says Rams' Toogood
"A player has to hustle to play
pro football," Charlie Toogood,
former Husker football great and
now performing tackle chores for
the Los Angeles Rams, said in an
Informal Interview with the Ne
braskan Thursday.
The husky Toogood, visiting In
Lincoln on bis way to the West
Coast, told of a huge college
tackle who was expected to press
the ex-NU great for his tackle
slot. "He lasted just about a year.
The reason? He didn't hustle."
Toogood called this type football
player a "college hotrod. "They
just don't last much more than a
year or two If they don't hustle,"
be added.
Toogood said he thought Elroy
"Crazylcgf" Hirsch would prob
ably play football again this fall.
He explained that a pool had been
built up for him and the added
money Incentive might draw him
back Into the game.
The rcjon so many professional
footballers retire, he commented,
Is because thev don't want in rn
through the long grind of playing
camp. He singled out Otto Gra
ham, retired Cleveland Brown's
quarterback, and said Graham
had indicated he would be Inter
ested In playing again If he didn't
have to go through the training
season, which starts the first of
July.
Toogood visited Husker basket
ball Jerry Bush' during his
short stay. He told Bush he would
do some scouting for him along
the West Coast, mentioning that
he "didn't recruit for the school
but for the coach."

With weather more fitting the
winter Olympics than the annual
All-Sports Day festivities, Corn
husker coaches find themselves
plagued with a somewhat disas
terous form of spring fever.
Nebraska's meterological hang
over from December has put a
damper on outdoor sports and has
caused baseball, tennis and out
door track to be stricken from
Saturday's sports menu. This
leaves only football, swimming
and basketball as the main
courses for the All-Sports Day
festivities.
Husker gridders will battle the
elements to trod the sod climax
ing spring sessions tomorrow. The
stadium would probably accommo
date a hockey game more readily
and even if the sun manages to
break through the overcast, the
footing will still be heavy and slip
pery. Coach Glassford hinted Thurs
day the following . combinations
will probably answer the opening
whistle:
Yellow Squad
LeRoy Butherua, Lincoln, and Martin
Hildint. Red Oak. Ia.. ends: Jerry Peter
ten, Cunbrldre. and Don Rnoda, York,
tackles; Don Kampe. Red Oak, la., and
Jim Murphy, Columbus, luardi; Laverne
Toreczon, Platte Center, center.
Rex Fischer, Oakland, Quarterback; Corn
stock and Harrr Johnson, Valley, halfbacks;
John Edwards, North Platte, fullback.
White Squad
Don Hewitt, Dea Moines, Ja., and Rob
ert Cupper. Monessen, Pa., ends; Gerald
Wheeler, Milan, 111., and Philip Ereckson,
West Allis, Wis., tackles: Jack Punier,
Jay Em. Wlo.. and Mclntyre, tuards;
Doran Post, Shelton, center.
Charles Harshman. Dickerson Run, Pa.,
Quarterback; Sylvester Harris, Kansas City,
Mo., and Roier VanHaften, Bellcvue, half
backs; Jerry Brown, Minden. fullback.
Although the cage contest will
be played indoors (which, is a
point not to overlook) unusual con
ditions will prevail here also.
These idiosyncracies are nothing
more than the new rules which
have evolved from the 29th annual
basketball congress held recently
in Kansas City. The Cornhusker
maples will sport the "New look"
Saturday; that of the 12-foot free
throw lane.
Freshmen may hold key posi
tions as the Husker Bushmen lock
horns with Bus Whitehead's Alum
ni quint. Big Buster will not only
pilot the Grads but open at pivot
along with other former all-time
greats Bob (Shorty) Fierce,
Claude Retherford and Hank
(Painless) Cech.
Snowman Whitens First
Blush Of Spring Sports
By FRED DALY
Copy Editor
Spring, along with its vernal
equinox, little flowers and related
trivia, is also the season for one
of the biggest sports shows on the
campus All-Sports Day.
AU Sports Day, now pointing for
its sixth annual presentation Sat
urday, was origini&ted back in
1950 as an airing of varsity sports
during the slack between winter
and spring sports.
End of Football
It marks the end of spring foot
ball and spring basketball and in
troduces outdoor track, baseball
and tennis to throngs of sports
fans from all corners of Husker
land. All-Sports Day provides a fine
opportunity for high school coaches
to bring their charges to the Uni
versity for a fine and wide-spread
view of what athletics are like at
the University.
Often such future stars as Don
Comstock, Rex Fischer, Jerry
Minnick and Bobby Reynolds show
their first brilliance in the intra
squad football game. The game
was.firsi planned to be an Alumni
Varsity game, but has since been
changed to a clash between Red
and White teams from the varsi
ty ranks.
This year, however, unseasonal
snow has whitened the blush of
spring and sent Coach Bill Glass
ford and his charges shivering in
to the Fieldhouse for their toil.
Fickle Weather
Whether or not Nebraska fans
will get their usual spring preview
of the 1955 grid season depends
on the fickleness of Nebraska
weather. Tony Sharpe's diamond
contingent and Ed Higgenbottom's
tennis squad are in the same fix.
The only events safe from the
weather are track exhibitions un
der the East Stadium and the
Alumni-Varsity basketball game in
the Coliseum. The Alumni, under
the guidance of Bus Whitehead,
will be gunning for a second
straight win over the Varsity.
So, as anxious coaches scan the
overcast skies and anxious fans
scan the glazed highways, the sixth
All-Sports Day is drawing nearer.
Qnly the abominable snowman can
tell what will happen.
Jerry Bush will probably give
the starting nod to Rex Ekwall
and Chuck Smith at forwards, Jim
Thom at post, and Whitey Buel

Coach Hollie Lepley's tankers
will show their wares following
the basketball game to keep the
crowd within the general vicinity
of the Coliseum. One prediction
should hold true in view cf tha

"I used to think accountants wore green
eye shades and sat on high stools," John
Merrick will tell you. "That's before I
started working in a modern accounting
department
"I trained for about a year and a half
in different phases of telephone ac
counting. Then I was placed in charge
of the section which maintains tele
phone service records. I have more
than 60 people in my group with four
supervisors reporting 1o me. Our job
is to keep a running record of monthly
charges for 140 exchanges in Central
customers
Massachusetts. That comes to 440,000
different customers.
"Customers expect their bills on time
and they want their charges to be right.
So on my job my primary concern is to
maintain constant and rapid production
and at the same time keep our work ac
curate and reliable. One of the best ways
to do this is to be sure that 'the right
person is on the right job at the right
' time,' an old cliche. But I found it works
and it gives me a chance to use my
Sociology training since it means han
dling all sorts of personnel situations."
John finished Bates College in 1952 with a degree in Sociology,
and started with the New England Telephone and Telegraph
Company. His work is typical of many assignments in the
Bell telephone companies. The opportunities open for col
lege graduates with other operating companies of the Bell
Telephone System are many and varied also with Bell
Telephone Laboratories, Western Electric and Sandia
Corporation. Your Placement Officer has full details.
