Eugene Ochsenreiter, rated as
one of the best halfbacks in the
high schools and captain Of the
Tech eleven, may not play again
this season, according to members
Of his team. Ochsenreiter was hurt
IN the Westcrn-Tech game Of last
Tuesday sustaining a strained leg.
He has been out of school this week,
and according to his teammates is
abed with the injury.
On the very first play in the
Western Tech game Peyton kicked
off to Ochsenreiter, who returned
the ball only to be heavily dumped
by Hume, the Western left tackle.
Hume got side shot at Ochsenrei-
ter, and when the Tech captain
spun to one side he twisted his
knee. The next time Ochsenreiter
took the ball he was forced to re-
tire from the game.
The Tech captain has had unusually
hard luck this season. In the game
