pect to have two of the best
elevens they have turned out in
years. The former says frankly
that its team is to be made up OF
veteran material, with line aver
aging between 100 and 1876 pounds
and a backfield with only one man
under 1870. Clemson does not lay
claim to an eleven of such weight,
but does say that it has plenty OF
material for all positions.
"A bigger and better foot ball team
for South Carolina" seems to be the
slogan around Columbia II reports from
that town are accepted at their lace
value. 1t Furthermore is claimed that
Billy Laval is optimistic ABOUT ms
teams chances, which, in itself, is sum-
cief1t indication that the outlook is
pretty good.
Nine Regulars Return.
Nine of the eleven regulars of last
season are back in harness, and only
two positions seem to be open, one AZ
center, vacated by the graduation OF

For the end positions it is likely that

other line positions are to be well taken
care of. while It is expected that Caro-

backs in the section. Boineau is likely
to be the regular quarterback. Cup

South Carolina than to win every other
game on its schedule, also looks for

Cody, who formerly assisted Dan Nc
Cugin at Vanderbilt, Clemson has been
doing well the last two years, but this
Fall expects to turn out one OF its best
teams
Jim Gee, director of athletics at
Clemson, speaks rather enthusiastically

Cody has a host of splendid men to
select his varsity team from this year.
Our freshman squad was unusually
strong last year and possessed most ad-
mirable material to ut in this year S
needs for our varsity squad
Last season we had a team of
sophomores complete that was as good
as our frst-string team at the close of
the season. This team will doubtless
be the first string this year. We have
only enough seniors on the squad to act
as leaders In the backfield we have
Justus. one of the speediest and best
halfbacks in the Southern Conference.
and who is also exceptionally good on
defense, as captain of the team. We
also have Sowell, Speth and Saney,
VINO are seniors.
In the line we have Dyess, center;
Bowles. guard; Marlborough, tackle;
AIlp E1cullBkt EAldg CAAAf
Jones, end, all of whom are seniors.
AL of these men, of course. are letter
men. The other letter men from last
year are: Centers, Fordham and Ores
ham. sophomores Guards are New
some, Long, Sharp, Wall, Cox, from last
years reserves. For tackles we have
Seigel and Victor Fleming. letter men
and regulars from last year, and also
Ralph Smith, substitute OF promise.

Patterson and Blakeney, juniors. Backs
who are letter men, in addition to the
seniors ! have already mentioned, are
Harvin, Mailman and WEIGH. Men who
were substitutes last year but did not
earn a letter are Pickens, Keller, Harv-
aey, Priester and Herlong
Good Men From YearIings.
From the freshman squad we have
the following excellent men, the first
four being excellent punters and pass
ers-the thing we have been lacking in
the past three years: Miller, Crook,
Armstrong, Charlie Wilson. Ir addi-
tion to these We have Jim Wilson, Lam
bert Moss, Willimon Mcmillan and
Slower. For linemen we have Guy and
Nettles at center: guards, Proctor, Potts,
Moss, Flagg, Strom and Heinneman.
For tackles we have Davis, Williams,
Logue and Martin. AS ends we have
Riley, Rivers, Craig and Monts. All Of
this freshman material will be back
and should be pleasing to any coach,
as they have experience, combined with
considerable speed and weight"
