the Gray this season. Mckinney, BY
the way, Is giving Wohlfarth quite q
battle for . wing job.
CENTRAL Is an unknown quantity.
~ Bert Coggins, coaching the Blue
gridders for the first time, has
only a few seasoned players at hand
and admittedly has . big job TO turn
out high-class team.
Mindful of the host of bang -up basket
ball teams he has turned out, however.
there Is feeling among not few that
CogginS win do better with the gridders
than ordinarily might be expected. In
|Other words, they hgure that II he's so
successful with the basket ball SQUADS
he Is likely to do well with the foot
ballers.
Over at Eastern Coach Mike Kelly A
toiltng to reconstruct machine riddled
by graduations. AT that, the mentor of
the Light Blue Is somewhat better on
than last year when he was without q
single letter winner at the start Of the
season. This year he has three.
It Is the backfield that is giving KEEL

son of the former Central High coach;
Mimi, Drake and Bailey, halfbaeks,
loom now as leading backfield aspirnnfs.
Campbell and Wolf, tackles, and
Mades, guard, are back from last rear,
but new center must be found TO re-
place Shorb. Lieb, Howard and Alvey
are being looked over a. prospective
snapper-backs. Alvey and Howard also
are being considered for the guard

EMERSON probably win take the field

with Whalen and Brown, ends;
Kelso and Roadley tackles: williams
and Kline or Hardy, guards; ShoEb,
center: Buscher, quarterback: Cornwell

Raum, fullback.
Others expected to get into action for
Emerson during the game include Dow,
Mclaughlin and Wilson.
Joe Buscher and Kelso are the lone
veterans on the squad. Despite its
heavy losses by graduation, however, the
Emerson squad has good spirit and there
Is a feeling that it might have team
just as good II not better than CAM
paign ago.
Devitt's squad will get down to earnest
preparation tomorrow. Bill Childress,
reserve end, is the only player with ex-
perience from the 1880 bunch at hand.
Among others being counted upon are
Naylor, from Central; Mayer, from
Tech; Kelly. who formerly was on the
Hun School grid squad: DoelIer, erst-
while Bordentown Military Academy
gridder, and Mckenzie, who has had
some experience in sclloolboy ranks.
