1970 Grizzly Outlook The U niversity of M ontana m ust replace seven key starters in 1970 to have a successful season. Gone from the 1969 undefeated team are s ta rt­ ers Doug Bain, split receiver; Ray Brum , quarterback; Tuufuli Uperesa, tackle; Bill G utm an, tackle; John Stedham , guard; Roy Robinson, cornerback and Jo h n Talalotu, defensive end. Uperesa was twice an All-Big Sky and A ll-A m erican candidate and B rum m ade the A ll-A m erican team last season. Robinson, Stedham and G utm an also w ere All-Big Sky choices. The strong point for the Grizzlies this fall should be the defense. Nine of the eleven starters are back including five All-Big Sky first team ers (Jim N ordstrom , end; L arry M iller and L arry S tranahan, tackles; Tim G allagher, linebacker and K arl Stein, free safety). Stein and M iller w ere All-A m ericans. O ther retu rn in g starters are linebackers Bill Hickerson, M arty Frustaci and Bill S terns and defensive backs P a t Schruth and John W axham . M ontana has some added strength on defense w ith transfers Greg M aloney, end; linebackers Bruce Spencer and Bob Serowik, and defensive backs Lonzie Jackson and Dean Dempsey. The Grizzlies w ill get added strength from the 1969 frosh team in defensive end Dennis Falk; line­ backers C urt H enningsen, T erry Pugh and Jim R ichter and defensive backs Yasuo Y orita and David Leigh. One of the several big questions in 1970 is the quarterback spot. Mon­ tana has tran sfer G ary Berding, who guided C entral Iowa to the Wool Bowl victory last fall, sophomore Elroy Chong and junior Steve Caputo vying for the starting berth. Ray Brum graduated and w ill not be easy to replace. A nother big question for M ontana is the offensive line. Only two Grizzly starters are back this fall, guard W illie P ostler and center Ray Stachnik. S w arthout has 1969 utility linem an Len Johnson; transfers Greg Sem ple, John Lugviel, B arry D arrow and Steve Okoniewski, and frosh stars Ron Richards and Jim Leid to fill the gaps. The Tip backfield should be as strong as it was last fall. All-Big Sky halfback A rnie Blancas, A ll-A m erican fullback Les K ent and 1969 sta rte r halfback Casey Reilly are back. T ransfer W ally Gaskins, veteran Jim Schiliinger and sophomores M onte Sever and Sparky K ottke add depth to pack the mail. M ontana has a host of fine receivers in split ends Tom McMahon and Glen W elch and tight ends Jim DeBord, Tom Bodwell and Dean Hovdey. DeBord was a sta rte r last fall and McMahon shared starting tim e w ith Doug Bain, The Grizzly kicking com bination is back. K icker Dan W orrell has his holder Bob G uptill back this year. G uptill started as a defensive half­ back in 1968 and left school last fall. G uptill could also earn his starting role back in the secondary but is a sure bet to hold for W orrell, M ontana’s A ll-A m erican kicker.

DAN W ORRELL—ALL-AMERICAN GRIZZLY KICKER Dan W orrell is already the U niversity of M ontana’s all-tim e top scorer and the greatest kicker in the history of Grizzly football. He is consistent from b e tte r than 40 yards and last fall against South Dakota State U niversity booted a 50-yarder to set a new school and D ornblaser Stadium record" In 1969 he was the leading Grizzly scorer and tallied 71 points. W orrell kicked 40 of 41 conversions and was nine of 18 in the field goal departm ent. His field goals travelled an average of 35.7 yards. W orrell scored 113 points in his two year varsity career at UM and kicked 28 points his freshm an season including 45 and 43-yarders. As a kicker at G reat Falls Public High School, he scored 96 points. In 1969 W orrell was the second best NCAA College Division kicker in the nation and sixth in the NCAA U niversity and College Division. However, if the points the M ontana specialist kicked in the Cam ellia Bowl w ere counted, he w ould be tied for fourth in this country among NCAA kickers, More than 500 kickers com peted on the nation’s college gridirons in 1969.

KARL STEIN—A DIFFEREN T KIND OF ALL-AMERICAN Last season K arl Stein was nam ed to two squads, the All-Big Sky first team and the NCAA A ll-D istrict 6 first team. He broke three school records and tied tw o more. Stein, in setting his U niversity of M ontana pass interception record of 11, also broke the conference record of 10 interceptions in a season. He received honorable m ention on the K odak and AP All-A m erican teams. The reason Stein is a different type of A ll-A m erican is th at he is an a rt m ajor. Not too m any athletes in this nation have an appreciation for the fine arts, and if they do it is usually in the field of music. Stein loves to paint and design and w ill graduate frorn the U niversity of M ontana next spring w ith a Bachelor of A rts degree in art. The only other team m em ber of the 1969 squad to show an interest in a rt was Roy Robinson, also an All-Big Sky. first team selection and NCAA A ll-D istrict 6 choice. Robinson m inored in art, and painted m any of the signs th at guide skiers down the slopes on the Missoula ski areas. Robinson was graduated from the U niversity of M ontana last spring and is now w ith the A tlanta Falcons.

F ig h tin g G rizzly M a rc h in g B a n d M ontana’s snappy 75-piece m arching band has developed into one of the sharpest and m ost entertaining bands in the N orthw est. The band perform s at every home game presenting pre-gam e, halftim e and post game shows. The Tip unit also travels to either Bozeman for the UMMSU riv alry or to Moscow for the M ontana-Idaho clash. L ast fall the band accom panied the Grizzlies to the Cam ellia Bowl in Sacram ento and drew w ide acclaim for the outstanding perform ance. The assistant band director this year is Lance Boyd, now a UM music instructor.

Band Director, Butler R. Eitel, came to the University of Montana in 1967 from Macalester College, St. Paul, Minn., where he was conductor of the band and orchestra. He also has been band con­ ductor at MacPhail College, Minneapolis, assistant band conductor at the univer­ sities of Minnesota and Maryland and with the United States Air Force Band. Eitel is a graduate of the University of Michigan School of Music and received his Masters of Music from MacPhail College.

1970 Cheerleaders

Leading the Tip cheers are (left to right, bottom row) Susan Gail Sullivan, W hite­ hall; Marcia Lee Delano, Missoula; Sharon Lee Corning, Billings and Barbara Jean WTemper, Billings. Pictured in the top row are the Morgan sisters of Helena, Deborah on the left and Robin on the right.

1969 Big Sky Cross C ountry Champs For Coach H arley Lewis, the 1969 Big Sky cross country cham pion­ ship was the second during his four years as UM track and cross country coach. Lew is’s team also won the 1967 cross country title. Not only did the Lewism en w alk off w ith top team honors, bu t Grizzly runners swept the first th ree places and the lowest ranking Tip ru n n er placed 20th in the 40-man field. W ade Jacobsen, the Simm s junior, successfully defended his 1968 cham pionship covering the course in 20:46.0. The Moscow, Ida. course was m ore th an four miles long. Senior Ray Velez, San Bernardino, Calif., captured second place and freshm an George Cook, H ighland Falls, N.Y., took third. Prospects for the 1970 season look good for the Grizzlies. Lewis loses only Ray Velez from the cham pionship team and has gained three high school seniors who have indicated they w ill attend the U niversity of M ontana. Lewis has Jacobsen, Cook, Tim O’Hare, H ow ard Johnson, Bob Malkemes and Ray Baliew back from the cham pionship squad along w ith Boyd Collins. These m en will have their wrork cut out for them as N orth­ ern Arizona, w hich officially enters the Big Sky Conference w ith Boise S tate in 1970, has a crop of excellent distance runners. Along w ith NAU is perennial title contender, Idaho State. The L um berjacks have six-m iler R ichard Sliney who captured second in the NAIA six m ile in 1970 and R ichard Shelby, the second place fin­ isher in the NAIA m ile com petition last year. Both are sophomores.
