"Spitz" Clarke is far from decided
on his Main Avenus High School line.
He intends to shift linen en- and backs
frequently in Mains opening game
next Monday with Tivr High OF Kerr
vile at Schwab Field.
Boyd, a betty lad who has been
smashing the line from the fu!lback
position in most practices, may go in
at tackle. Brotze, last years center,
is likely TO start at end and then
change during the game to center or
tackle.
Kennedy or West will open at
quarterback, probably Kennedy with
West as a nalfback. West and Fraley
will do the punting.
Cox, West, ketchum, Brotze, Jordt
and ;Shiiier, the veterans who are play
ing their last season with Main. will
all start the game. Before its over,
however, C number of 'uy Morrison's
Cubs" will be sent into the gray to
get a line on good material. The
whole squad will be worked out no
matter how hard game Kerrville
put up, Clarke says.
| Mains big squad is i'll first-class

of the team in being able to secure ex.
