Thus far McGuire's team has escaped
injuries in practice. All of the men
are in top-notch form and many Of

her of the new plays have been given
the team recently and, after the final

Coach Smith has a remarkably strong
line this year and his backfetd is one
of the fastest in the recent histors of
McGuires school. The men are working
we'll together and all are confident of
