Carnegie has used but IA or Is men

urdays such rugged opposition as
Temple, Xavier, Notre Dame, w. and j.,
Purdue and Michigan State has been

squad has been battered heavily, espe-
cially since the Tartan team. averaging
1873 pounds in the line and 161 pounds
in the backfield, has been badly out

Some OF the boys must be rested In

his first starting assignment next Sat-

latter pair has been alternating while
Bowser has been yearning for varsity
chance. He has a world of speed and
entered Carnegie with a fine reputa-
ton. However, he was injured in FAN
training and the coaches have no real
line on his ability under fire.
Clyde Heinzer, veteran left guard.
also is due for rest, and it is likely
that Henry Dreshar, another senior, will

Michigan State last Saturday and a
