Eight in Line
BoekfisId Trouble
Foess St. Mory's,
to Open on 18th

OWith nine lettermen returning,
Coach Lee Hart still faced the
prospect of rebuilding a team as
he met his squad yesterday for
the first fuily-attended drill.
Most of the iettermen have had
little experience.
Some Is candidates reported

but absent were a number of the
boys whom Hart had depended
most heavily on. including Leon
Luke, lettefman half who moved
to Lansing with his parents .
short time ago. A light squad
started drills Thursday.
BACKFIELD PROBLEM
Harris main problem Is in the
backfield where he has only one
monogram winner returning, as
against eight in the line. With
the forward law lining up as an
experienced aud heavy outfit
probably averaging close to
16O-hiS main worry yesterday
was concerned with a backfield
which will net contain Homer
VanHollenbeck, his ace triple
threaten of the past three years.
In the line. Hart has Palmer
Hudson and Lorne D'Luge tenta-
lively scheduled for end slots,
Bert Milan and Walt Smith at
tackles, George Ferar and Jack
Cummings at guards and Rod
ney HILBERT OF Bernard Voght at
a center post All are lettermen.
PETITPREN LETTER WINNER
Jim Petitpren, slated to do the
passing from a quarterback post,
is the only monogram man in the
backfield, where he'll work with
Bud Rogers at a half post and
Ken Vernier at full. One half
slot is wide open-with no top
prospects in sight; kicking will
probably be handled by Vernier.
Harris schedule calls for eight
games, opening with st. James
on September %. All the Cath
Ollie schools clashes will be Sun
days. Other teams on the sche-
dule are St. Alphonsus, Dear
born; ST. Mic haels, Pontiac; ST.
Frederick's, Pontiac; ST Rita's,
Detroit; st. Ambrose, Detroit; ST.
Mary's of Royal Oak and St.
Stephens of Port Huron. The To-
cal team plays IN the second divi-
sion of the Catholic League.

several Of the 18th and 18th Century
explorers who reached these shores
mention the wooden calling cards in
their official reports.
Similar carved-hand calling cards
are found from time to time in Aus
tralia and neighboring parts. Cen
orally the hand is carved on bit of
bark. few of which have lasted down
to our own time, and sometimes on a
flattish stone. Like the Comoro native,
the Australian bushman crept up to
the other fellows cave or tree, placed
the calling card in a prominent spot
and waited. If his host" picked up
the card" and took it into the cave
or climbed up the tree with it the
visitor" knew he was welcome. If
the host" struck the card" with his
spear the guest" started running right
away.
