Breaks Up Varsity Plays
Jimmy was in every play. He
stopped the veteran backs as they shot
around the ends, plunged through the
line and met them as they were reach.
ing the secondary line Of scrimmage and
hurled himself at the pile when the line
stopped the vets for brief time. He
was all over the field. After ten min
utes he was ordered to the sidelines and
The coaches had private smoker on the
dde.
A few more days and Jimmy Dew

aar IN the backfield and once he finds
himself and injuries leave him alone
WILL prove a hard man to keep out Of
the game regularly.
Frank Sutherland, regular last year,
was also member of the scrubs yes
terday and, like Dewhirst. played a
whale Of game against the varsity.
fhe Idaho lad isn't regarded as prom
lnent scrub. He did not report until
Nonday and needs lots Of work to reach
top form.
Johnny IMkas. the Shenandoah lad,
captain of the boxing team and an ex-
eelent halfback toward the end OF last
eason, is another red -ierseyed athlete,
