Before I proceed with sev
eral observations on the prog
ress of the football team this
spring, I would like to add
my congratulations to the
many that have been ex
tended to Bill Thornton on
his selection to the Innocents
Society.
In my opinion it speaks well
for the University, the Inno
cents and most of all, Bill.
Ia Thornton, Nebraska has
much more than a Big Eight
fullback, for in my pinion
he is a gentleman in the true
stnse of the word.
I have seen him under fire
in football practice, in t h e
ames, and most revealitigly,
sometimes after the games.
Under these conditions it is
not hard to see what kind of
person a guy is. Under these
conditions Bill has gotten the
reputation as a leader on the
field and within the team.
Congratulations again to the
Innocents and tn Bill, I am
sure that their association
ifl be mutually beneficial
In spring practice, it is ex
tremely hard to put one's
'inger n any progress that
i:as been made. Bat there
:tc some interesting obser
vations that can be made m
the difference foi the team
Kince Coach Boh Devancy has
: alien over and on the prog
ress. From what I have ob
served. Coach Devaney is a
pretty easy going individual;
hut he can be serious and
naturally get & little angry.
His sincerity in dealing with
ihe players is Just as big an
asset as his football knowl
dge. A little light humor can
relieve a lot of tension on
ihe practice field or in a
skull session; sometimes a
flayer needs to be chewed
;ut, it's exactly what he
needs and deserves; and,
just as important, the play
ers need a pat on the back
"r a kind word from time to
ime.
Devaney uses all of these
in a natural, sincere way, in
a sense he doesn't use them
at all, they Just issue forth.
When you combine this
with the fact that his staff
is not only competent hot
also works with the players
in the same natural way, it's
no wonder that morale on the
team is high.
Morale is high and the
flayers are working hard.
Some of the progress that
'several of the players have
nade over last year Is out
standing and at least partly
''ue to the new coaching staff.
rhere are more players try
ig harder now than any time
nat 1 have observed the team
' nd it is no accident, in my
'pinion.
Naturally the team is not
' t peak efficiency. Devaney
' as stated, though, that the
"am it as far along at he
' vpected, and I doubt if be
t easily satisfied.
What does all of this mean?
H means that people who at
' "nd the game at All-Sports
T'ay should see a darn good,
fD-out affair.
More important, it means
tliut this high morale along
'th the good material that
as here when Devaney came

here will keep Nebraska "in"
even- game next fall. I pre
dict the biggest dog eat dog
affair in years to start when
fall camp opens. Players wffl
be scrambling for positions
in order to play and to win.
We will have a good chance
of beating any team on the
schedule next fall. Nebraska
win not have an undefeated
season, but the team will be
beat at the sound of the last
guifand not the starting whis
tle. There will be no more
slaughters, games with no
first downs, or other redicn
lous forms that poorly played
football games can take.
Nebraska will stay with
every team it plays and even
though not undefeated, will
finish with a record that the
team and the state can be
proud of.

along with Ernie BonistaU.
Keith Sieck wiU take the
mound Saturday morning for
the nine-inning game.
'Good Job'
"Ron Havekost has done a
real good job for us and his
3-3 record doesn't reaUy indi
cate h i s effectiveness,"
Sharpe noted.
In two of Havekosfs losses
the Huskers have failed to
score. Trailing Iowa State,
1-tV Havekost developed a
blister on his hand and had
to leave the game which the
Cyclones won, 4-.
He lost to Missouri, 1-0, on
a Husker throwing error in
the eighth inning.

Drop Drake
For 6th Win
Nebraska's tennis team
roUed to its sixth victory of
the season by overwhelming
Drake, 7-2, at the NU courts
yesterday.
The win sets the Husker
netters at a 6-2 mark for the
'62 season much improved
over last year's showing.
Dick Gibson, slender sopho
more, again proved to be the
outstanding Husker as he
overcame Drake's number
one man, Dave Knouse, 6-4,
6-4 in the singles and teamed
with Dave Wohlfarth to take
the number one doubles, 3-t,
-3, 0-4, over the Drake team
of Knouse and Vito Bems.
Jim Fowler and letterman
Tom Johnson teamed to take
the number two doubles, 7-5,
6-3, after succeeding in their
singles competition. Fowler
easily defeated Dave Lifka of
Drake, 6-3, 6-2, while Johnson
overcame Bob Klingler, 10-8,
3-6,. 6-1.
Jack Lausterer, playing in
the number five spot, found
Bob Cov of Drake too much
ia the singles (2-fi, 3-) but
later teamed with Husker
Rich Harley to defeat Coy
and Don Zinzer of Drake ia
the number three doubles,
6-1, 7-5. Dick Woods regis
tered the other Nebraska wis
by defeating Zinzer in the
number six singles, 6-3, 6-1.
Bems rallied for a 4-6, 6-4,
6-2 win over Wohlfarth for the
other Drake point.
The Huskers next outing is
against a rugged Iowa State
crew Saturday is an All
Sports Day test ;
Creighton at Happy Hollow.
The pacesetter for the
Huskers (7-7-1 in duals) is
Bud Williamson. Williamson
has shot two under-par 71s
and last week at Manhattan
fired a 73. Williamson's score
suffered from a hand injury
last weekend in two quad
rangles, but be expects the
injury to be cleared up by
tomorrow.
Other NU golfers who will

averaging 76 strokes per
round; Jerry Overgaard,
averaging 78 strokes per tour;

around cowboy this year at
the fourth annual intercol
legiate Championship Rodeo,
as Don Lambert, last year's

Lambert, who took the
crown as a frosh last year

ning, proof of the kind of ac
tion to be expected in this

bronc-busting show.
This year's 47 competitors
hail from five Nebraska
schools Duschene of Omaha,
Nebraska State Teachers of
Kearney, Union College of
Lincoln, McCook Junior Col
lege and Nebraska.
The .annual affair is ex
pected to surpass aU others
as the University's own Ro
deo Gub prepares for the af
fair. In the men's events the
entries range from 34 in the
bareback competition to seven
in the saddlebroneing. In ad
dition, there will be 22 buU
riders and 13 ' doggers". The
girls events tabbed 14 calfrop-
ers, four girl narrei-racers.
three polebenders and five
goat tiers.
To arouse interest among
the fraternities the club an
nounces the addition of the
fraternity cow race.
Other highlights this year
include the Queen contest, the
Block and Bridle horse show
and the announcement of the
1962 all-around cowboy and
