Page 4 The Daily Nebraskan Friday, April 2, 1965 Big Eight Spotlight . . Oklahoma Watches Quarterback, End Strength As Spring Drills Progress Working without captains, Oklahoma s Big Eight foot ball runners-up started spring practice March 9. "We won't elect captains this spring," Coach G o m e r Jones said. "We've discovered that captains sometimes be come so involved 'mothering' the squad while serving as contacts between players and coaches that they lose their effectiveness as players. Af ter the season, our squad will elect its captain or captains." Jones said that Sooner cap tains would be appointed for each game this fall. Ola' homa opens at Pittsburgh Sept. 25, then meets Navy here Oct. 2 and Texas at Dal las Oct. 9. Oklahoma drew eight full teams and a few more for its first drill. Practices will be held Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday of each week. "We'll divide each day's workout into offensive and defensive drills so everybody can go both ways the first two week s," Jones said. "Then we'll rest a week dur ing the spring holiday. When the squad returns, we'll di vide it into platoons, placing each boy on the platoon where we think he'll do the most good." Seeking to improve its for ward passing, Oklahoma will start this spring with a wing T formation involving a split end, thus providing two de tached men to throw to in stead of the one used most of last fall, Jones said. Jones will have assistants Jay O'Nekl, Drake Keith, Jerry Thompson, Bob Cornell, Carl Allison, Joe Rector, Dick Heatly and Brewster Hobby helping, also student coaches Wayne Lee, Dennis Ward, Jimmy Payne, Larry Vermil lion, Jerry Hayden and Paul Lee. The first day alignment of positions, favoring players with any type of varsity ex perience, will no doubt change rapidly as members of last year's all-victorious fresh man team challenge vigorous ly. Despite their victories ov er Tulsa and Oklahoma State. the Boomers lacked top-flight linemen. "We especially need tackles, ends and quarter backs," Jones pointed out. The halfback situation is also insecure with graduation of Lance Rentzel, crack sweep-er-bucker-receiver of last year and the switch of Lar ry Brown to fullback.

The Golf meet which was scheduled for April 1 with Creighton and South Dakota has been cancelled. The meet scheduled for next Wednes day with Omaha University which was to be played at Miracle Hills in Omaha has been rescheduled for Lin coln's Holmes golf course here in Lincoln. Good hopes that South Dakota will be able to make it to Lincoln for the meet. The nucleus of this year's golf squad will be three men. Tom Thompsen, Hastings two letter man paces the squad. Bob Saffer from Omaha owns one letter, as does Kerm Mortensen of Albion.

Coach Tony Sharpe's forces are scheduled to take the field at Riverside Park around 1:30 p.m. for the double-header. Sharpe Is going with an ex perienced field and a sopho more hurler in the first game. Randy Harris will go at second-base and bat first. Third- baseman Joe Gaughan bats second, followed by catcher Larry Bornschlegl. Number four man is right fielder Dennis Gemar. Gemar is followed by left-fielder Gar ry Tunnison, shortstop and last year's leading hitter John Roux. Hitting seventh will be first sacker Rich Brenning. Curt Johnson will be in right field and bat eighth. Sophomore Gary Neibauer will hurl the first seven in nings. The fast-balling rookie right-hander figures promi nentely in Sharpe's pitching rotation, and may be able to move right in now that bad weather has helped compen sate for his late reporting due to basketball duty. Bob Hergenrader, junior left hander, is slated to work in the second contest. AN ACADEMY AWARDI HENRY 0 ;aoB GIFTS - FRIZES mtmoat 1&J y2 With the cooperation of the weather, NU will return to Lincoln on Saturday to play the Coyotes in another twin bill. If conditions on the cam pus field are not conductive to play on Saturday, the teams probably will remain in Beat rice. Coach Sharpe is hoping for clear weather at the Lincoln site in order that his team can put in much needed game action in preparation for next weekend's Eig Eight opener in Lincoln with the University of Missouri. The Missouri team could provide Husker fans with one of the most exciting players in the conference. Ray Thorpe, the first Negro member of a Tiger baseball team, is a speedy 5'9" out fielder who halfbacks on the football team. In last week's series with Texas Tech, Thorpe hit for the cycle a single, double, triple and homer during a 26-3 Mis souri romp. -WATCH REPAIR campus BOOKSTORE MANCIN! if, r.M f H :
