Perhaps you'd like a preview
showing Of these footballers who
will carry on this year under the
lights for the first time and on the
new field. This week these lads,
around whom. an 8-game schedule
with home games has been de-
veloped, romped on to the field for
the first time, gave coaches
an insight what to expect from
the gang this year. So we
give you the '3S edition of the mole
skinners. Maybe in a month you'll
want to give them back. But sight
unseen we give them to you. Here
Well lead off with headman in
the show-Coach Gene Harvey.
The boy who gets on his best fight
in face, drags out his gray sweat
shirt, and otherwise gets himself in
the coaching mood. -.
Then there's his right hand bow

for him. lofty is not downcast ov-
er this years prospects. -.
Next in line Is Captain Denny
Ethun. Small, wiry, about $50
pounds Of drive, Denny goes into
the backfield post this year for the
third consecutive year. The
only two letterman on the squad.
Another old hand and partner In
size for Ethun Is Eugene Cokeley.
Rarely called Eugene, on ac-
counta his red hair, Red" has the
streak common to redheads Of q
1otta fight. Small, he proved his
mettle in the baclfield. But
Red won't be out for q couple
fright now the choice for anoth-
er backfield post, probably that of
fullback, goes to Don Kringen. :.
Don, 1856, in his first year last year,
started q bit slow, finally wound up
with regular slot in the line. /. :.
Developing set of shoulders and
q nice bit Of weight, Kringen look
ed last spring like the nod for full
back. But who can tell? And
who for the other post in the back
field?
Well, well, and here comes Hill
airy Egan. Sunny boy of the line.
Big, eager, at times brilliant
in his maneuver, Hilary, who looks
like cinemactor, Robert Young, has
for two seasons now been a main
stay on that line. Egan, too, may
be a choice for backfield. =.
On the line, too, is big Ray Berg
green. One Of the heaviest men in
the line, Ray grew fast last year,
his sophomore year. BY the end of
the season had won for himself q
regular berth. He's expected to go
bigger and better this year.
Not so big, but willing and driv-
ing is Willard Cargo" Rasmussen.
Though he appears slight, Will
lard proved he could take 1t last
year. Best on the defensive, he'll
need work in pass receiving.
For the line too Is James Zieg-
Ter, letterman, though he didn't see
much service. Willard Arvig, who
subbed at end. There's Jim Pang-
burn, who lost out early in the sea-
son with injuries. !. Jim's up to
1855 now. 49,.
Up from the ranks will come from
Harold Rasmussen's junior high
boys. :, To Don Hoffman goes
the distinction of beef. Stocky
he is with punch, but small of sta
That's the setup of lettermen
and those who showed the most
promise. These Lads are lost
to the team this year. From the
end slots Pickett and Walker
are gone. The line loses such
stalwarts as Beste and Bohn.
-. And that center position Is
going to cramp this year, too,
by the by. Rivette and Fish are
gone from the bacldield.
Darn good men, there.
Well, this week they poured oil
in the football machinery-found
