Porkers Are In Limelight
Despite Loss Of Manpower
The Arkansas Razorbacks, for
three consecutive years the team
with the money players to bring
them Southwest Conference cham
pionships, must dig down deep
into their pockets this season to
replace the sterling quality of the
nine graduating seniors who led
them to three titles.
If you would believe the 1962
Arkansas football brochure, re
splendent with All-Americas Jim
Mooty, Wayne Harris and Lance
Alworth gracing the cover, there’s
going to be very few “Woo-oo Pig
Sooey’s” coming out of Fayette
ville this fall as the brochure’s
theme is “In ’62—Rebuilding the
Backfield!”
Those nine seniors who walked
down the aisle last spring repre
sent a lot of talent. They were
veterans of three championship
seasons and three Bowl encoun
ters; four were named to the 1961
All-SWC team; six were selected
to play in post-season bowl games
(after the Sugar Bowl); and seven
tv e r e drafted by pi’ofessional
teams'.
But let no tears be shed for the
colorful Hogs, because Frank
Broyles is the wizard behind the
eleven that makes the ball move
that scores touchdowns and re
fuses to let the other Texas mem
bers of the league step into the
championship circle, with the ex
ception of Texas University which
also has a special affinity for col
lecting grid trophies.
Position by position, this is how
the Razorbacks will look in the
year of football, 1962.
The only recognizable player to
be found in the backfield is full
backs Mickey Cissejl, he with the
golden toe, and regulars Billy Joe
Moody and Jesse Branch. Moody
and Branch are regulars from last
year, and Cissell might as well
have been since he spent enough
time on the field kicking extra
points and field goals to log as
much playing time as the others.
Gone from the quarterback slot
is steady George McKinney, but
Billy Moore is back on the scene
with the ability to know that the
shortest distance to the goal line
is a 99-yard forward pass and
the know-how to get it there. Im
portant newcomers are redshirts
Fred Marshall, Gordon Guest and
Sammy Hilburn.
Wingback, a new position, has
all kinds of applicants for a start
ing berth but none hold the letter
“P” for proven. Redshirt George
Walker looked the best in spring
drills and has the edge, but frosh
seem to be in the best position to
move in at the No.’s two and three
spots.
Tailback will never be the same
for Arkansas without little Lance
Alworth toting the mail, but al
ways remember that the postman
rings twice, even for the Razor-
backs. Former fullback Jim Wor
thington has been shifted to meet
the gap here with letterman Tom
my Moore and soph Garland Ride
nour backing him up. Ridenour
worked as a quarterback during
spring drills, but was so impres
sive that he was nominated to fill
in at the number two spot.
There’s lots of cheering going
on at end, even though All-SWC
standout Jimmy Collier is magna
cum laude. Letterman Jim John
(or John Jim) is backed up by
veteran Tim Langston at weak-
side and while lettermen Jim Griz
zle and Hoover Evans are depend
able at strongside end.
There’s two lettermen at every
spot on the line and quality ga
lore, meaning that Arkansas may
be even tougher on defense this
year than last when they were
10th in the nation in that depart
ment (third in pass defense).
Veterans Jerry Mazzanti and
Wesley Bryant head the weakside
tackle and Danny Brabham and
Dave Adams the strongside tackle.
Brabham was moved from guard
to tackle and missed spring drills.
Another All-SWC performer is
gone from the guards list of hard-
chargers, but veteran Tommy
Brashear is on hand at weakside
guard along with Tommy Polk,
and Ray Trail and Gary Howard
are a steady twosome at the
strongside slot. A terrific soph,
Mike Hales, may move up to be
come a first stringer, and redshirt
Skipper George has been labeled
a “fine prospect.”
The performance of offensive
star Jerry Lineberger at center
continues into its third year, but
there’s nary a letterman in sight
to back him up. Top prospects are
sophs Ronnie Caveness and Clif
ton Stewart with redshirts Dick
Hatfield and Tom McKnelly.
In summation, the Razorbacks
are missing a few of their shoats,
but Pappa Broyles will once more
find something to give the rest of
the league something to moan
about, even if it’s a late starter
like the 1958 team that found it
couldn’t win until it came to Col
lege Station and found that it
couldn’t lose after that.

Southwest Conference members
will get from $55,800 to $101,000
each from television this fall. All
this money from just three games.
The NCAA program consists of
nine dates on which there will
be nationally televised games and
five dates on which there will be
three regional telecasts .
The country is divided up three
ways for the regional games and
one-third of the counHy will get to
see the game in its area.
Texas plays Oklahoma at Dallas
Oct. 13 in one of the regional
games. Southern Methodist and
Rice clash at Dallas Oct. 20 in
the other. Texas and Texas A&M
battle at Austin Nov. 22 in the
nationally televised game given
to the conference.
From television this fall Texas
will get $101,000, Texas A&M
$83,000, Rice $73,000, Southern
Methodist $73,000 and Texas Chris-
tion, Texas Tech, Baylor and Ar
kansas $55,800 each.
It works this way:
The regional games on television
pay $172,000 each. Rice and South
ern Methodist each will get 10
per cent of the $172,000 and then
share in $137,600 that goes to the
conference for distribution to the
eight members. Thus Rice and SMU
each get $34,400 while the other
members of the conference draw
$17,200 apiece.
In the Texas-Oklahoma situa
tion Texas gets to keep half of the
$172,000 because Oklahoma gets
half and is in another conference.
Texas takes 20 per cent of the
$86,000 — $17,200. The remaining
$68,800 is divided eight ways so
that’s $8,600 more. Thus Texas
will recieve $25,800 while other
members of the conference get
$8,600 each.
In the nationally televised game
the total amount is $280,000, thus
Texas and A&M each will get 10
per cent or $28,000 to keep and
then share in the remaining $224,-
000. That means $30,000 for each
school. Texas and A&M each get
$58,000 while the other members
of the conference drew $30,000
apiece.
That would appear a nice sum
for athletics except that it’s only
a drop in the bucket when the cost
of big-time operation is considered.

As your savings grow, you
get closer to financial freedom
