Lane completed his sixth year with the Governors after helping Dupes establish Austin Peay as one of the strongest defensive clubs in the OVC. A native of Murfreesboro, he compiled an overall 10140-9 mark during 1 5 years of prep school coaching. He served as head man at Oneida, York Institute, Smithville, McMinnville City and Franklin County. The 44-year old defensive expert played football and baseball at Middle Tennessee during the 1941 and 1942 season so it is logical that he might take the job at the head of the Raiders if offered.

Following a tour of three years during World War II, he returned then to MTSU gridiron as a blocking back and tailback. He graduated from MTSU in 1948 with a B. S. degree. Holder of a M.

But I will have no sayso in who gets the job." Murphy resigned as football coach following his first losing season this fall. Dupes, head boss of the Governors pointed out that Lane would be a great loss to the Governors program.

"We would certainly hate to see him go. But along the same lines we wouldn't want to be the ones to stand in his way if a greater opportunity presented itself." Dave Aaron, athletic directorat Austin Peay put it this way. "It would be with deep regret to see Jimleave'us. But we wouldn't want to stand in his way. But we still don't want to lose him.

He has doneanexcellentjobforus." 1 Lane meets all the qualifications that MTSU is setting for the position.
