will be the objective game of the
season.
Coach Haines has been getting
line on the new material during the
last few days in watching the inter
class games. The principal problem
that Haines has to face is that of
finding a goal tender to fill the
shoes of Hardy and West. last years
goalies. In the class games Khoury
and Williams have shown up best
and these two men will receive a lot
of attention in the opening practice
sessions. Neither has had experience
