He graduated from T.M.I. at San Antonio, Texas, in 1922, and four years later from Austin College. During his college days, he played under Pete Cawthern, later of Texas Tech and pro-football fame, and lettered three years, earning All-Confer­ ence honors one season. Joining the ranks of the rugged Texas prep circuit, Frnka became athletic director and head coach at Lubbock High School the year he graduated, remain­ ing for a period of five years. He moved to Green­ ville High School, also in Texas, in 1931, and stayed the same length of time. During that decade, the young head coach faced the cream of Texas prep ball and c.ame through with the unbelievable record of 103 victories again·st only eight losses and seven ties. Satisfied that he was ready for college competi­ tion, Frnka moved to Vanderbilt University and The Southeastern Conference the next year to become assistant coach under Ray Morrison. Here he remain­ ed until 1940, when he departed for Temple Univer­ sity and a year's stay. And then the soft-spoken Texan made his college debut as a head coach, taking over the reins of an unheralded Tulsa University Golden Hurricane and zooming it . into the gridiron prominence it was to retain all during the Frnka regime.

    2021-2022 1 THE UNIVERSITY Mission Statement Tulane’s purpose is to create, communicate and conserve knowledge in order to enrich the capacity of individuals, organizations, and communities to think, to learn, and to act and lead with integrity and wisdom. Tulane pursues this mission by cultivating an environment that focuses on learning and the generation of new knowledge; by expecting and rewarding teaching and research of extraordinarily high quality and impact; and by fostering community-building initiatives as well as scientific, cultural and social understanding that integrate with and strengthen learning and research. This mission is pursued in the context of the unique qualities of our location in New Orleans and our continual aspiration to be a truly distinctive international university. History Tulane University, one of the foremost independent national research universities in the country, is ranked among the top quartile of the nation’s most highly selective universities. With ten schools and colleges that range from the liberal arts and sciences through a full spectrum of professional schools, Tulane gives its students a breadth of choice equaled by few other independent universities in the country. Tulane University’s ten academic divisions enroll approximately 8,000 undergraduates and about 5,000 graduate and professional students. The schools of Architecture, Business, Liberal Arts, Public Health and Tropical Medicine, and Science and Engineering offer both undergraduate and graduate programs. Other divisions include the schools of Law, Medicine, Social Work and Professional Advancement. Tulane traces it origins back to the founding of the Medical College of Louisiana, the Deep South’s first medical school, in 1834.

  • Football Hall Selects Another Marine
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 22, No. 5 (2000) Football Hall selects another Marine By John Gunn Camp Lejeune Globe/ 5-5 On the football field, he was a hawk, not a dove. As a result, former Marine Bob Dove of Notre Dame and NFL fame was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame. He is at least the 45th former Marine so honored. The hall's Honor Committee, which reviews accomplishments of players of more than 50 years ago, selected Dove, a three-year starter at end for the Fighting Irish from 1940-42, a two-time All-American and winner of the Knute Rockne Trophy in 1942. "It had been over 50 years. I almost forgot about it," Dove said. (Similar efforts have been unsuccessful to honor back George Franck, a Minnesota All-American who was third in the 1940 Heisman Trophy voting and a Marine aviator in the South Pacific during WW II.) THIRTEEN OTHER PLAYERS and two coaches whose selections were announced April 25 at a South Bend, Ind., news conference will be inducted into the hall at a Dec. 12 banquet in New York and formally enshrined at South Bend in August 2001. Dove, who played nine seasons with the Chicago Rockets, Chicago Cardinals and Detroit Lions, also starred for the El Toro Flying Marines in 1944 and '45 -- the "Boys of Autumn" and strongest Leatherneck teams ever fielded. The '44 team won eight, lost one and was ranked 16th in The Associated Press poll even though the base was barely a year and a half old.
