champion sprint artist, to the tape in
the preliminary heat of the hundred
yard dash event at the Pacific A. A.
meet; Art and Hale Brimhall and Ike
Steele, all of Mesa; Tony Coretto and
Bill Mcdonald, Bisbee; Clinton Wager,
all-state end last year at Douglass.
The third annual training camp
which opens tomorrow will be an IN
teresting and extensive ten-day pre-
conditioning period for the hard grind
which is to follow.
Lavik is not ready to divulge all the
details concerning the camp. 1t is ex-
pected, however, that in addition to
the two daily workouts, there will be
a varied program of entertainment
and sports. Among the trips which
will be taken is hiking expedition
to the top of San Francisco Peaks,
steak fry along the shores of Lake
Mary and probably an overnight ex-
cursion to Grand Canyon.
The Lumberjacks have the toughest
schedule to face this season in their
history. From playing high schools
only three years ago, they will be
called upon to meet an entirely col
legiate schedule this fall. This phe-
nomenal change in the schedules has
also reflected itself in the type of
young men entering the college. From
13 bows attending school in 1924, the
Youngest being 13, and the oldest rs,
the college had more than rs boys IN
all the departments at the opening Of
the fall term last year. 1t is expected
that over 100 young men will be in
attendance when registration closes
this year.
The team will play four games at
home-with possibly practice game
with either Prescott A. G. or Clark
dale Shelters thrown in for October
land three games away from home.
Two of the three hardest games Will
be played at home, one with Tempe
Teachers on October %, Homecoming
day, and the other the following Sat
urday with Loyola college, which
ranked last year with Stanford as the
only undefeated teams on the Pacltlc
coast. The third game which appears
to be among the toughest on the
schedule will be at Albuquerque with
New Mexico university as the feature
attraction for Armistice day.
Opening with Phoenix Junior col
lege on October 8, Coach Lavlk drew
a tough assignment. Advance infor-
nation from the down-state school is
that it will have a. strong team. The
local college has always had tough
breaks with this team, but last year
handed them a sweet drubbing to the
tune of 80 to 0.
/. The following week the Jacks go to
Thatcher to play Gila. The L. ID. ,.
college is reported to have weaker
team than last year. The Teachers
turned in score Of 19 to 0 last sea-
son but there's no telling what may
happen should the locals become over
confident.
October % is Homecoming day.
Tempe Teachers, a thorn in the side
of Flagstaff past seasons, hope to
be able to turn the cards their way.
After lapse of nearly 10 years, the
Jacks commenced playing the sister
college sin 1924. With the score
standing 16 to 0, Tempe in the last
half strengthened, defeating Flagstaff
20 to 16. In 1925, when it appeared
that the game would end scoreless,
Johnny Riggs of Tempe booted the
pigskin between the uprights for the
only tally of the game. Last year at
the state fair Smith of Tempe inter-
cepted a Flagstaff forward pass and
ran for a touchdown. "Lily" Goddard,
Tempe's speediest halfback, carried
the ball across the white chalk mark
for the second last score of the game,
the Lumberjacks going down to de-
feat, Ia to O.
October 20 Loyola will be here. On
November 5 the Phoenix Indians will
participate in the final home game.
This colorful team of redmen attrac-
ted a great deal Of attention last sea-
son and held Flagstaff to TO score.
Many Indians from the nearby reser-
vations saw the game.
On Armistice day, the Teachers will
travel to Albuquerque to play the
University of New Mexico. This will
mark the first meeting of these two
teams. Last year the local boys de-
feated New Mexico twice in basket
ball.
The concluding game of the season,
unless there is a post-season game ar
ranged with the University of Ari-
zona, will be played Thanksgiving at
East Las Vegas with Montezuma col
lege.
