ATHLETIC STAFF
Agler
ROBERT "MOE" AGLER Athletic Director Although Bob Agler now has been away from the head footba 11 coach's post for a ful I season, he con足 tinues to maintain an avid interest in the fortunes of the Cardinal gridders. The ever-popular Agler "retired" from active grid coaching at his own request following the 1965 grid campaign and is now devoting full time responsibilities to his Athletic Director's role and classroom assign足 ments. From the time A !::; ler starred as a fullback for Otter足 bein until this past year his name has been almost synonymous with Otterbein football. He came back to his Alma Mater in 1953 as a part-time assistant, was named head coach in 1955 and held the post for 11 years, departing with the best ever Otterbein coaching record of 57-36-4. Agler earned an M.A. degree at Ohio State University, and has taken further advanced study at the same uni足 versity toward a Ph.D. degree.

Lintner LARRY LINTNER Head Footbal I Coach Beginning his second year os head football coach at Otterbein, Larry Lintner has high hopes of elevating the Cards to a better record than the 2-7 mark of the 1966 team. He played under Bob Agler while a student at Otter bein and served as co-captain of the 1956 squad. Like Agler, Lintner was a hard running fullback and recog nized as the stabilizer of the squad. After graduating from Otterbein Coach Lintner was named head coach at Watkins Memorial High School (Pataskala) where he spent six years building an envi able record as a class "A" High School Coach. In 1962 he was named runner up for the State Class "A" Coach of the Year Honors and in 62 and 63 his teams won the Licking County Championship winning 17 of his final 18 games there before being named as on assistant to Agler at Otterbein. For two seasons he worked closely with Agler as a member of the Otterbein football coaching staff. In 1965 Lintner earned on M.A. degree from Ohio University with a perfect 4.0 average. Lintner makes his home in Gahanna with his wife Helen and their two daughters, Tracey, 9 and Tuesday, 7.
5
ELMER "BUD" YOEST This mark s the 12th year that Bud Yoest has served as on assistant Otterbein football coach. Like Lintner, Yoest, too was a former Otterbein gridder who returned to his alma mater shortly ofter graduation. Under Coach Lintner, Yoest will be assigned the role of "end coach" which is a familiar position for Bud since he ployed end in college. After graduating from Otterbein in 1953, Bud was on the staff at Mifflin High School and returned to help A�ler port-time in 1956. In 1958 he become a full time member of the department and was assigned the respon sibilities of Head Track and Cross Country Cooch. In addition to his degree from Otterbein, Yoest hold s a M.A. degree from Ohio State. He and his wife Nancy ore proud parents of two sons, Jeff, 12; and Kyle, 9. RICHARD FISHBAUGH The newest member of the Otterbein Athletic Stoff is Dick Fishbaugh who joined the Cardinal Stoff in 1966. He come to the Westerville campus from Reynoldsbl>l'9 High School where he was head basketball and assistant footbo11 coach. Fishbaugh, a graduate of Ohio University was an outstanding baseball player for the Bobcats. He also serves as head baseball and wrestling coach at Otter bein in addition to his duties as assistant football coach. Working with Coach Lintner is nothing new to Fish baugh. He served as assistant to Lintner when Lintner was enjoying success at Watkins Memorial. In addition to his degree from Ohio University, he holds an M.S. in Physical Education from West Virginia University. He is a native of Pickerington, Ohio. Fishbaugh and his wife Donna have four cheerleaders; Karen, 9; Kelly, 7; Kristen, 5, and Kathleen, 2.

Records show that in 188 9, R o bert Spear, Princeton scholar and athlete, visited Otterbein and explained the game of football. The idea was a hit and a move was
immediately started to provide footbal I at Otterbein. There was one major problem - there was no football! A student, Ernest S. Barnh ard, raised $4.00 to buy th e first football and, thus, football at Otterbein was under way. In 1890, A. L. Artz, an old Dartmouth player, wa s hired to coach the first team which played two games.
Kenyon was the first opponent, and they defeated th e Otterbein team, 48-6. Denison won the second game, 14-0. The first Otterbein football victory was recorded in 1892 when the Cardinals defeated Ohio State University, 42-6. As the years progre ssed, football at Otterbein did like wise. In fact, from 1890 to 1920, a total of 2 0 coaches served the football squads at Otterbein, and for four of those years, there wasn't a coach! From 1 920 until 1955, the Otterbein football te am was directed by six different head coaches. M. A. Ditmer became the first coach to last more than three years.
was with the Otters seven years, from 1920-26. A. B. Sears took over for two years, 1927-28. R. K. (Dek e) Edler served the team as head coach for six years (1929-34) leading into the reign of the late Harry He
Ewing. Ewing started coaching in 1935 for the first of his three four-year stints. Following a three-year stay by S. T. (Sam) Selby, 1939-41, Ewing returned for another four-year coaching term during the lean war years of
1942-45.
During this time, when any opposition was hard to find, Ewing concentrated on service teams and compiled a four-year record of 16 wins, 7 losses and 3 ties, befor e r dde gri e Stat hio yielding the coaching duties to ex-O George Novotny.
Novotny' s appointment as footba11 coach at Otterbein
came at the end of Wor Id War 11 (1946). That year h e produced one of the greatest Otterbein teams ev er, sporting a
7-1
record. The lone loss was a
13-7
setback
against the University of West Virginia in the season opener. The fame of the
'46
team sticks with the CardiÂ
nals to this day.

the Otters for the third time. When he retired in 1955, he ended 12 years of footba 11 coaching at Otterbein and more than 20 years with the college's athletic teams. Bob Agler who is now serving as Athletic Director, guided the Otters for 11 years until his retirement from coaching this past season. In his 1 1 years as head coach, he compiled an enviable record of 57-36-4, the best ever accumulated by an Otterbein coach . Football at Otterbein really came into its own at Otterbein during -the Agler era. After bouncing up and down during the first years of Ag I er's 11 ye ar sti nt, the Cardinals compiled six consecutive winning seasons from 1959 through 1964. Agler brought a new and exciting style of football to Otterbein influenced greatly by the three years he spent as a p layer in the professional ranks (two seasons with the Los Angeles Rams of the National Football League and one with the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football Leagu . On the plus side and ranking with probably the most exciting game in Otterbein's modern footba If history was the come from behind 28-28 tie recorded by the Cards against Wittenberg at Springfi el d in 1963. This tie, which saw the Cards' quarterback, Dave Kull, complete a record 18 passes, came in the midst of Wittenberg's most successful string of seasons in the Ohio Conference. Probably the most outstanding player to compete on the Otterbein grid teams coached by Bob Agler was quarterback Larry Cline who completed four seasons as the regular Card signal caller in 1960. Cline still holds three individual season records for the Cards and two more single game marks. Cline's mark of 1080 yards passing and 23 touchdown passes thro wn (both in 1960) sti If dot the OC records book as does the 1231 total yards gained in 1959. In the singfe game category Cline stiff claims the most touchd own passes thrown (six against Capital in 1960), and the most total yardage (246 against Hiram in 1959). Other top gridders of the ''Agler Era'' included Glenn Aidt, Gary Allen, Dick Ame l u ng, Bill Baker, Jim Earnest, Ron Jones, Gene Kidwell, Harry Klockner, Dave Kull, Bill Messmer, Jack Pietila, Dick Reynolds, Gary Reynolds, Jack Spicer, Jim Wacker, and Jerry Whitacre. Following the 1965 season, Agler's aide, Larry Lintner was named to replace him in the head grid post. Lintner, a former p I ayer under Ag Ier has a I ready estab1ished himself in the high school ranks as a winning coach at nearby Wa tkins Memorial. •

II
1967 OUTLOOK After a disappointing 2-7 record in his first season as head footba11 coach at Otterbein, Larry Lintner naturally is looking toward a brighter season in '67. The young (32) Cardinal grid mentor has good reason to feel this way since he has 24 returning lettermen, and only lost 12 monogram winners from the '66 club. Two standouts on the 1966 team wiII be among the missing. End Bill Speoks, who as a sophomore last sea son led the Ohio Conference in punting with a 39.9 average, is a scholastic casualty. Guard Fritz Goss, who was voted the Most Improved Player at the conclu sion of last year, transferred to Ohio State. On the plus side, Lintner points out that he will have 11 seniors as compared to three last year. He is abandon ing the wing-T offense used last fal I in favor of a more wide-open attack featuring the "I" formation and a "pre set". "We'll be throwing the ball much more this sea son in an effort to beef up our offense," says Lintner. Heading the list of returnees are senior Bill Baker and junior Ron Balconi, a pair of hard hitting linebackers who should bulwark the Cardinal defensive unit this season. Baker, a 6-3, 250 lb. triple letter winner, was voted Most Valuable Player by his team mates at the end of last season, and was later named to both the All-Ohio Conference second team offensive and defensive units. He has operated at tackle for the past three campaigns but will be switched to a linebacker post in his senior year. A native of North Battleford, Sask. (Canada), Baker has hopes for a professional grid career. A graduate of the always tough Sandusky High, Bal coni proved the chief nemesis of Otterbein's opposing ball carriers last season as he led the Cardinal defen sive unit in tackles with 86 over the nine game schedule. Balconi wi II be a junior this fall and has already been a regular with the Cards for two seasons. Junior Fritz Caudle will be back for his third cam paign at quarterback for the Cardinals. The 6-0, 170 lb. Caudle had an impressive freshman year when he con nected on 50 of 101 passes for 608 yards and six touch downs. Last season the Johnstown signal caller was learning a new system under first year Coach Lintner and had an "off year," but he should come back strong in '67. 10
Another shining light from the 1966 team, fullback Paul Reiner, is expected back this season to add some punch to the OC running game. As o sophomore Reiner was the team's leading ground gainer with 540 yards in
146 carries. A knee injury in a pre-season scrimmage
kept Reiner out of the entire 1966 campaign. Other senior lettermen who should see considerable action this year are offensive tackle Jim Jones, 6-0, 220; offensive guards, Bill Ellinger, 5-11, 218; defensive ends Dale Foor, 5-11, 205 and Dave Green, 6-0, 225; defensive tackle Lance Lord, 6-4, 215; defensive corner backs Dave Hoernemann, 6-0, 187 and Dove Widder, 5-10, 180; and defensive safety Don White, 5-11, 175. Another Canadian, halfback Pete Parker, 5-9, 180 from Oakville, Ont. will be playing his first season of foot baII for the Tan and Cordi no I. He enrol led at Otterbein at the beginning of second semester last year and was a standout sprinter on the OC track lost spring. Porker ran both the 100 and 220 yard dashes, and also anchored the 440 yard relay team. Two other gridders who have had varsity experience
with the Cords in past years but did not play in '66 will be back. Guard Dan Neese, a 5-9, 205 junior from San dusky, earned a varsity "O" during his freshman year but was unable to ploy last season. Sophomore halfback Carl Crist, 6-0, 185, saw con sideroble action with the 1961 team but dropped out of school to serve with the armed forces. Crist enrolled a gain second semester lost year and will be trying to pick up the gridiron sport once more this fall. Otterbein wi11 be facing three new schools on their schedule in 1967. The Ohio Conference opener wiII see the Cords facing Muskingum instead of Wittenberg os they did last season. From the history of success both these teams have hod in recent years, the opener still wiII be a rough one. Ashland, now ploying on independent schedule, will return to the OC schedule for the first time since 1964. Otterbein also will face Guilford _College of Greensboro, N.C. for the first time ever. The Quakers' football hos been on the upswing the past two seasons as has the entire Carolinas Conference of which they are a member. All in all the second Otterbein Cardinal grid team coac hed by Larry Lintner should be improved over the '66 edition. The outlook is not as bright as it might be, but the Cards are expecting to surprise severe I op ponents this year and by season's end could be a club to be reckoned with.

After an up and down (3-4-1) season in 1966, hope� are high at Heidelberg that the Student Princes car
continue their gradual climb back to the top rungs of the Ohio Conference that they held in the 1950's. This year the 'Berg is a question mark. Coach Joe
Malmisur must come up with an effective passing quarter
back to balance the powerful running of fullback Chuck Ehlers. Last year as a sophomore Ehlers was the fourt�
leading ground gainer in the Ohio Conference with 64� yards in 162 carries. Center John LeFever should be ar al I conference candidate.
