Scrimmages Costly.

No Lineup Selected.
AT the present time the coaches have
little to say concerning the probable
lineup that will represent the Blue and
Gray In the first major contest. Mem
hers of the first string varsity eleven
win be selected largely on the showing
of the individual players in the prelim-
inary: games leading up to the game
on November g. Mount st. Mary's Col
lege, Susquehanna. Lebanon College,
west Virginia Wesleyan and Duke will
be met on successive Saturdays before
the game at New York.
Tomaini and Provincial appear to be
the leading candidates for the wing
berths, both of whom were regulars last
year.
: Gardiner and Scalzi are expected to
divide the quarterback duties, as each
has shown real generalship to date In
addition to carrying the ball well. The
three remaining backfield posts will be
taken care of by Hudak, Leary, Barabas.
Dryer and Duplin, with the possibility
that some of the other promising backs
may show enough in the early games
to get into the big contests.
Carroll and Cordovano, also veterans
of the 1927 machine, loom asa likely
first sting guards, and Liston and
Mooney are rated the best Of the tackles
. now with the squads Flood Muir and
Montanas have. shown enough to make
the, other line candidates hustle.
Bozek,f former Gonzaga all-around
star and q sensation with the Hilltop
freshmen last Fall, still is an unknown
quantity to Coach Little. Johnny
underwent an appendix operation early
In the Summer and, is nursing himself
= into condition. He is expected to don
fun regalia in about two weeks and
demonstrate his ability in the backfield.
He hopes to put en- , few more pounds
