First Serimmage Tuesday
Hansen Announces
Temporary Varsity
Lineup for Test

One week of strenuous practice
under their belts, Ell Centro high
school footballers prepared to re-
sumo practice at the Central high
gridiron Monday night
Coach Laurence Hansen planned
to run his varsity through a signal
practice in order to have his charges
familiar with new plays for Tues
day nights Scrimmage.
Hansen announced his varsity
lineup, temporarily at elast will be:
Labrucherie and Harner at ends;
RoSenbaum and L. Edgar at tack
les; Newell and Carr at guards;
Johnson at center; and kirkpatrick,
Price, Peters and ]. Rex in the back
field.
Last weeks practice shaped the
boys into fine condition, Hansen
reported but also lost two regulars,
Max Zinn and Leon Withrow.
WithroW may be out for the sea-
son with an injury from last season.

ira 18 holes and beginning play one
day early. Adding 18 holes to this
tournament makes the carrying of
Goals to Newcastle seem like a
downright sensible endeaVor, be-
cause it, already is scheduled for
108. Yes, 108, or six complete
rounds. Without the extra 18 the
boys will have TO play 18 on Thurs
day, 18 more on Friday, and then
swing into SO on Saturday and 36
on Sunday The winner probably
will have already spent his $1,000
fol foot powder before he finishes.
He'll have a bunion for every
birdie, and his arches will sink
along with his puts.
This will be one tournament
where it will be wise to put your
money on a dark horse-that is,
providing he really is a horse. A
horse may not be very accurate off
the tee, but he stands good
chance to win by default when the
humans all give up after, say, 100
holes
Playing 108 holes is going to be
burdensome to the famous profess
sicnals in more ones than one.
There is the little matter of not be
ing able to squawk for one thing.
Nothing is SO soothing to the pros
than those locker room post NOR
TENS where they loudly explain that
if it hadn't been for that one little
putt that didn't drop, or that lousy
lie on the 18th fairway, or the
camera that clicked just as they
started TO swing on the 10th, they
would have been a cinch to win.
They won't be able to make ex-
cuses at Fenway. A tournament of
l08 holes gives everybody time to
make up for a lapse or two.

FiQht tPreview Slated on
Thursday Night Program
Shorty, Graves
Meet Los Angeles
Pugs in ECAC

A preview of what can be eX-
pected when Shorty Hogue and
Herman Graves meet one week
from Thursday will be shown at
the Ell Centro athletic club next
Thusday night when the valleys
champions will meet Los Angeles
opponents.
Shorty will tackle Gus Gonzalez
and Graves will take on Dummy
Mann. In other feature bouts on
the same card Jack Morissette will
fight Ricky Castro and Cleo Shans
will exchange punches with Rookie
Rodriguez.
Gus Gonzalez, former lightweight
champion of Mexico, has shown
vast improvement since he fought
in CaleXico last winter. He has
added weight and speed in recent
months and has been undefeated
since entering the welterweight
ranks.
Hogue will have his hands full
because Gonzalez is a sharpshooter
but the Los Angeles battler will
give the twin just the type of fight
ing he will need in tuning up for
Herman Graves.
Graves opponent is unknown in
the valley but is rated high on the
coast. There have been other boys
rated highly, however, that the
Bomber polished off in a few sec
