WILDWOOD. N. J.. Sept. 10
After II days of training. during
which time no one man knew where
he stood regarding a place on the =.
varsity, Head Coach Lou Little has.
announced his team. 1t averages
172 pounds per man. -
Day after day the young hopefuls,
have been pitted against each other
with different shoulders rubbing
every day. Each individual! was
more than given chance to demon
strate his wraes, veteran and rookie
alike. AS result. the team picked
to start the season for the Blue and
Gray has at least one OF last years
regulars replaced by a sophomore. =.
Coach Little and his assistants
probably had the least hesitancy in
the selection of their center. Cap
tain Claude Grigsby has been chosen
to pilot the team from the passer-
back position. His exceptionally
brainy playing during the past two
seasons coupled with the showing
he has made here makes his choice
indisputable.
The guards picked are two
capable veterans, derry Carroll
and bud Saur. Carroll rose
suddenly from scrub oblivion to
regular berth last season and =
apparently has retained his fire. = :
Ssur, one of the bulwarks of last
seasons combination, has earned his
right to the berth many times over. :;
The tackler of the first team are
both members of the past freshman
outfit. Sam Cordovano was picked
after all the. other tackles had been
given a try.
His ability to cross-check and to-
break through offensive ends has
won him the coveted place. Jim
Mooney, sensational kicker from the
yearling team, has wrenched TIE
other tackle position from Moose
Mosko whose showing here has been
far from his former standard, -
The ends are both former sec. =.
Ond'team men. Weldon MOnSOn, 80
VINO played in many games last
year, has certainly got the re.
quired stuff. His partner ON -

The backfield has two Of last

George McCabe is calling signals
after having proved his mettle in
several games last fall. The fourth
member of the quartet is Steve
