Operating out of the slot- or flanker-back position, Bohling was the leading Titan ground gainer in 1960. The stocky back picked up 431 yards in 123 carries, was third on the team in pass-catching, with 30 receptions, and scored 6 touchdowns. Dewey is a bouncy, jolting runner who put in four years of stalwart service under Coach Sammy Baugh at Hardin-Simmons. Bohling signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1959, but quit in favor of selling for a sporting,goods distributor. Last year, Baugh coaxed him back into the play-for-pay set, and the results have been mutually satisfying. Dewey resides in Baltimore, Md., with his wife and two children.
