14 Tht Stat men, Salem, Orow Wednesday, August 13, 1952 Qgdatil Inherits Promising Squad lor. rid Wars . By JERRY STONE Statesman Sports Writer ! A football team's prospects on paper oftentimes are misleading what with zero hour injuries, those who suddenly don't show up, etc. but a quick look at the Willamette Bearcats' picture, with the 1952 campaign fast approaching, shows that debuting Mentor Ted Ogdahl has inherited enough from depart ' ing Chet Stackhouse to warrant Ted's being at least slightly opti mistic. Ogdahl, the former WU 'grid whizz and ex-head man at Port land's Jefferson, takes his first plunge into the college coaching whirl with a nucleus of 22 letter men from last season's 'Cat club. Other possible material for his T formation sparked Methodist ma chine will come from some of the more talented men in the '51 Jay vee ranks and from a tentative list of Incoming freshmen, some of whom are touted as real comers. 1 Of the 22 monogramers,; a ma jor share will come in as sopho mores, indicating that, if not this season, in a season or two they will have the polish and know how to give the Willamette's a tough and weathered outfit A long range peek at the picture for this year shows that Ogdahl should be able to field a capable forward wall, both on offense and defense, with good weight The general backfield picture is more of an uncertainty, with the offen sive backfield setup a question mark. Chuck Koani, the big Ha waaian fullback, will be a hard man to replace, having joined the marines. Chuck Lewis, the fleet little Seattle negro and best scat back on the squad last season, has not indicated definitely that - he will return for his soph year, but the Methodists naturally are counting on him. The lettermen list in the line includes: Guards Bob Dyer, Bob Cody, Don Hayes, Ken Cooper, Bob Hanauska and Bill Clarke. Tackles Rube Menashe, H a r v Koepf and Dorrance Note boom. Center Wally Richartz; Ends Buzz Oerding, Mike Hovis. In the backfield: Bill Van Horn, John Kent, Benny Holt, Ray Fretheim, Chuck Lewis, Mickey Coen, Chuck Naone, Bob Walker and Andy George. Of the forward wall vets. Cooper is a junior and Richartz a senior. The rest are sophs. Only Van Horn of the backfielders is out of the soph classification. He'i a senior and, being one of the Northwest Conference's top sprint ers, should help the grid depart ment considerably. Prospects up from the Jayvees include: Linemen Denny Elsas ser, Layton Gilson, Bill Hagmeir, Hal Har greaves, Jim Cranston. Backs Elmer Haugen, Russ Ferg, Bill Holcombe. The flank picture should be greatly helped by Bob Platenburg, a transfer from Oregon State. An other man who should make a strong fight for an end job is Norm Dversdahl, just back from service in Korea after having been a grid candidate several seasons ago. The biggest holes to fill will be those left - by the graduation of such men as Linemen Bob Hall, John Markoskie and Don Hosford and Backs Mark Cotton and Bob Shangle and, of course, there is Koani, too. The Bearcats open practice Sept 1 and play the first contest of a nine-game schedule at Chico State on Sept 27th. Their home opener comes against College of Idaho at McCulloch Stadium Oct 11th.
