Managers give

an added edge
Their role does not bring them
a lot of publicity, but without
them, the Oregon football team
would not function.
Football managers are a
special breed. Some are former
high school football players with
a life-long dream of playing col
lege football, while others are
managing for the sake of being
near a football team.
‘‘We are the guys
underneath," says Ed Garland,
the head manager. "We don’t
get a lot of attention but it’s fine
with us. We know what we do
and so do the others on the
team."
In the case of Oregon’s four
football managers, the lure of
managing at the major college
level was too great to stay away
from. For Garland, who has been
the head manager for two years
with the Ducks, managing is a
way to be near the sport he
loves.
“I really love managing,” ad
mits Garland, a junior from On
tario. "My true feelings are to be
a ball player because I was in
high school. But I got injured
and it wiped out any dreams I
had to play college football."
So instead of toiling on the
gridiron in college, Garland
sought out the next best thing
— working with the football
team.
"There’s nothing like being on
the sidelines on Saturdays,”
says Garland.
For Garland and his staff of
three — Dave Taylor, Curt
Nelson and Bill Guise — the
work is never done. Their duties
range from helping the coaches
with drills to folding uniforms.
But for the managers, the
work is always enjoyable.
While they are involved direct
ly with the football team, Pat
Conrad, the head equipment
manager for Oregon, oversees
the equipment operation.
"I’m basically in charge of all
the sports,” says Conrad. “With
football, I am in charge of
anything that has to do with
equipment."
On a typical road trip, Conrad
and the football managers have
their work cut out for them. On
Friday before they leave, they
will pack nine trunks full of
Dave Taylor’s duties never end as manager for the Oregon team.
everything from game uniforms
to small pieces of equipment.
The trunks are then loaded onto
a truck and shipped to Mahlon
Sweet Airport, where they are
loaded on the team plane.
After arriving, Conrad,
Garland and Taylor will take the
trunks, put them on another
truck and travel to the stadium
and prepare for Saturday after
noon’s game.
“We have to have everything
packed and ready to go by Fri
day," says Conrad. “Then after
we get there, we have to have it
ready for Friday’s practice."
During the week, a typical
manager day will have them
working anywhere from four to
six hours, depending on what
needs to be done.
"It is really a lot of work,” says

PEACE Special Work
CORPS ^or Special Pe°P*e
Peace Corps volunteers are
people pretty much like you. Peo
ple with commitment and skills who
have assessed their lives and decided
they want to be of service to others
in a troubled world.
The problems our volunteers
deal with overseas aren’t new. Such
as the cycle of poverty that traps one
generation after another because
they’re too busy holding on to get
ahead. The debilitating effects of
malnutrition, disease, and inade
quate shelter. Education and skills
that are lacking, and the means to
get them too.
Your college training qualifies
you to handle more of these prob
lems than you might think. Such as
teaching nutrition and health prac
tices; designing and building bridges
and irrigation systems; working on
reforestation and fisheries pro
grains; introducing better agricul
tural techniques; advising small
businesses and establishing coopera
tives; or teaching math and science
at the secondary level.
The number of jobs to do is
nearly as great as the number of vol
unteers who have served since 1961;
Nearly 90,000. More volunteers are
being chosen now for two-year
assignments beginning in the next
3-12 months in Africa, Asia, Latin
America, and the Pacific.
Our representatives will be
pleased to discuss the opportunities
with you.
