Maroon Teams Have Veteran Look In Spring Football Training Drills Varsity Town Suits at 3tm fitnntrs mrnfc uieor By GARY SHERER As the third week of spring football training begins. Coach Gene Stallings and his staff have a veteran look to their maroon first-teamers. Nine lettermen were missing from last year’s season-ending squad as Stallings blew the start ing whistle for this spring’s work outs back on April 17. Five of the nine went by the diploma route while the other four decided to concentrate on their studies. This left 31 lettermen (another, Bob Long was excused for base ball) to form a nucleus for the 104 candidates that reported. So far, all the veterans that were, have kept their first-team status, while some newcomers have come along to plug up the holes left by the non-returnees (namely Dan Schneider, Mark WeaVer, Grady Allen, Robert Cor tez and Bill Sallee). The four problem spots were offensive strong guard and strong tackle, weak guard and defensive right end. At present, three soph omores-to-be and a last season red shirt are filling the bill. At the guard positions are Jim Parker, a 6-1, 195-pounder from Gonzales and Rusty Stallings, a Midland product who was red- shirted last season. Stallings has been running with Jack Kovar at center before being moved to weak guard. The other offense post, strong tackle, is being manned by Mike Fields, 6-3, 219 from Texarkana. A standout on last season’s Fish squad, Ohioan Mike DiNero, has taken over Allen’s defensive end post. Other than these, the old guard has held firm as the May 18 spring game approaches. Due to injuries, some changes have been made on defensive. Reg ular defensive halfback Curley Hallman is hampered by a bad leg and Johnny Turney, a junior from Dublin, has taken over. Also, another defensive halfback from last season, Jack Whitmore, is now being tried on offense, at wingback. Mike Tighe, another sophomore- to-be, is now running at back-up tackle o n defense. Otherwise, everything remains as it started. On offense, Larry Stegent and newcomer Johnny Weaver are op erating at tailback, Wendell Hous. ley is at fullback and Edd Hargett and Charlie Riggs are the qct terbacks. In front of this baa field is a line composed of Km at center, Carl Gough at wa tackle, Tommy Buckman atstnn end and Jimmy Adams at «a end. Barney Harris is at wii| back. Of these offensive perform!: only Housley, Hargett, Riggs8 Buckman are seniors. Defensive old hands are Hare Aschenback and Rolf Kruegen tackle, Lynn Odom at miiii guard and Jimmy Piper at: other end spot.
