The Daily Nebraskan,
Ninety Hopefuls Listed
On Spring Grid Roster
Devaney Has Vets Back at Every Position
By BOB BESOM I
Sports Staff Writer
Something new?? con
veyed by a glance at the over-all
Cornhusker grid situa
tion goins into next week's
initial spring football session
a note of optimism.
'k roster of 90 one of the
higgest turn-outs a Husker
coach has had in years ,
will be on hand for the first
spring action, April 2. iAnd
the new Nebraska mentor
Bob Deveney will be able to
station veterans at every
position if he desires.
Although the former Wy
oming head man is nsea to
spring squads of 100, he fig
ures he will have enough to
work with at Nebraska.
There are 25 returning let-
tArmpn and eight of the 61 Nsm
starters returning. But the
Husker staff is already wor
ried about a lack in depth.
Devaney has pointed out
that although there are good
backs, there aren't enough.
The end and center spots, al
though the roster lists quite
a number of prospects, may
provide another brow wrinkler
for the new staff. And de
fensive linebaSkers could
Drove to be still another
problem.
"We certainly are going to
try to find more depth," said
Devauey, "but we're not sure
iust where it will come
from."
The 62 squad will be miss
ing only nine lettermen from
last fall while some u piay
ers who were on the varsity
squad last year are expected
out this spring.
The big losses were ends
Dick McDainiel and Don Fur-
cell, guard Dallas Dyer, cent
ers Mick Tingelhoff and
George Haney and backs
Ron- Meade and Fat Clare
Although Devaney and his
staff are reserving judgment
until they see the squad in
action, a study of films of last
fall's games has indicated
that more speed is needed in
the line. Devaney believes
the backs possess more speed
than his ball handlers at Wy
oming bnt figures the line to
be slower.
The staff has been im
pressed by the attitude of the
squad. The players have been
working out on their own to
get m shape for the six weeks
of spring onus, to be clr
maxed by an intrasquad
game on All Sports Day
Mai 12.
Srping drills will include
four sessions a week, coming
Fridays and Saturday mor
nings.
A backfield of Bill "Thund-i
er" Thorton, an All-American
prospect billed for the
fullback position, Rudy John
son and Willie Ross at the
halfback spots, and Denney
Claridfs at quarterback, is
considered a top-notch quar
tet, but some promising un
derstudies may crack the
starting line-up.
Boosting fullback prospects
win be the return of Noel
Martin after missing a sea
son due to a knee injury.
And two transfers from Mar
quette are ticketed for plen
ty of action. Dave Thiesen,
halfback, and Mike Koehler,
a fullback who is a grandson
of the famous Jim Thorpe,
could figure into the back-
field planning.
Freshman Kent McClough
an, the number one back
field prospect brought up
from Jack Braley's freshman
club this season, could be
called on for help this year,
McCloughan was the mam
cog in the '61 fresnman at
tack and while a prepstr at
Broken Bow, was named the
Nebraska Athlete of the
Year.
Departure of ends McDain
iel and Purcell will necces
sitate a re-building .in that
department. Bill Comstock,
Dick Callahan and Larry
Donovan are all billed to go
back to end after work in
the backfield last faU.
Centers Haney and Tingel
hoff carried much of the
load for"Bill Jennings' '61
starters but returning Ron
Michka has seen plenty of
action in that department.
Devaney hopes - to relieve
All-Conference fullback Bill
Thornton of his linebacker
duties because the work at
offensive fullback and defen
sive linebacker is too much
of a load.
There have been only five
losses since fall. Halfback
Bernie Clay, end C o r w i n
Bishop, pilot Glen Glynn.
and freshman tackle Anthony
Guillory have all quit school
And tackle Jim Borke, a
transfer from Illinois, had a
back operation and will not
be able to play.
Devaney has kept three
holdover coaches from Bill
Jennings staff George Kel
ly, Cletus Fisher and Harry
Tolly. He brought assistants
Mike Corgan, Carl Selmer,
Jim Ross and John Melton
from Wyoming.

Husker golfers not only
have to contend with tough
Kansas State next Friday af
ternoon, but with the soggy
links at Pioneer Park this
week.
The weather has been so
bad that the ten Husker pros
pects haven't been able to
qualify a team to meet the
K-State five. The Nebraska
team will be picked from low
scores of preliminary rounds
played this week by Jerry
Overgaard. Ron Einspahr,
Bill Gunlicks, Cecil Heit
brink, Bill Hemmer, Dick
Kistler, Stan Schrag, Sam
Sloan, Louis Titus, and Ralph
Williamson.
Prospects aren't very
bright this season. We only
have two lettermen, Over
gaard, and Williamson, re
turning from last year," says

coach Harry Good. Nebraska
had a 10-7 season last year
and was last in the Big Eight
Conference, but Good still
hopes to improve on the Hus
kers' conference standing.
"It should be a real dog
fight for several places in the
conference," says the NU
golf 'mentor. "Oklahoma and
Oklahoma State are the pow
ers in the Big Eight. Kansas
is a little better than last
year and Fowa State is not
qu'te as strong. The caliber
of Big Eight play is on the
upswing as there are more
boys playing and they have
more leisure time."
In fact, some freshmen and
so.xiomores are replacing two
and three lettermen as pace
setters in conference teams.
A game with as many coming
youngsters as that ought to
provide a lot of excitement,
thinks Good.

America's third ranking
sport, rodeo, will be pre
sented by NU's own Rodeo
Association on May 11 and 12
at the State Fairgrounds Coliseum.
The club, in its 15th year,
will present talent from jun
ior colleges, 4-year colleges
and the University of rsie
braska. announced Rodeo
Club president, Jim Schooler.
Rodeo got its stan in Ne
braska in 1947. The site of
the rodeo was just west of
the Ag student Union.
The students borrowed a
snow fence, posts, lumber and
Dut in countless hours of work
to build a temporary rodeo
eround. Wild horses ana Duns
were furnished by a local
trucking firm.
Property Obtained
In 1948 the University real
ized the enthusiasm oi roaeo-
minded students and fans
and gave the Rodeo Club
some property north oi tne
present Meat Lab on Ag
Campus. That year the stu
dents financed the present
arena from their own pock
ets.
From 1952 through 1954,
Ray Bohy, provided the club
with rodeo stocK. me ciud
members would borrow
trucks and go to Ray's ranch
at Taylor, round up the stock
and return to uncoin wnere
the stock was used for the
rodeo the next day.
School year 1955-56 marked
the time when the club be
came large enough to hire
Gus Obermire of Stuart to
contract stock for them.
Fritcher Stock
The fourth annual Nebraska
Collegiate Championship Ro
deo will again be furnished
with stock by well known
contractor, Art Fritcher of
Henderson, la.
