To George L. (Potsyl Clark,

those visions of the eX-great OF

No. maybe Lectka Will never do
all that Dutch Clark did. How
many players will?
FIGURES PROVE 1T
But that doesn't prevent the
boy from being one of those
dream backs the kind coaches
blink at in their sleep, yet seldom
encounter when the call for per-

figures, such as these;
Against Button College, Grand

times for 90 yards an average Of
93 yards per crack.
In addition Lectka scored one
touchdown. tossed passes which
brought Grand Rapids another

against outside competition. Dorais
scrimmaged his squad against
Coach julius Goldmans Detroit
Tech yesterday Tech, smaller
school. was overmatched by the
Titans.
The scrimmage, which was in no
way in the shape of a formal game,
did give Dorais some idea OF what

aerial plays, when opposing a team
not familiar with them. If they

Seven Probable Starters for Wolverines Saturda,
Against Michigan State Are Michiganders

Other two foreigners" in the
starting lineup are Paul Ceithaml
of Chicago, at quarterback. and
Bob ingalls, of Marblehead, Mass,
at center.
Among the reserve tackles who
stand out are Bob Flora of Mus
kegon and Ted Denise of Lansing.
Mervin Pregulman. sophomore
guard who won he Chicago
alumni award for his showing in
Spring practice, is also from
Lansing. Ted Kennedy, No. 2
center. halls from Saginaw.
VICTORIES EXPLAIN 1T
In the backfeld the No. l
alternate for Ceithaml is Elmer
Nader. who prepped at Detroit
Northeastern. And Westfall's re-
lief man is Don Boor, a sophomore
up from Dearborn High School.
Don Robinson, a soph, and Al
Thomas. senior trackman who
was invited out for the first time,
are possibilities at the tailbacK
post, and both learned their foot
ball under Herb Smith at Detroit
Cooley.
A winning team is the most
plausible explanation for this
influx of home-StaterS.

Three other good boys bound 70

quarterback. and AL Goodrich,
fullback. The latter will be used
sparingly. however, 10 give him
sufficient time 10 fully recover
from an illness which, for a time,
II was feared would keep HIM out
Of competition all season.
Switching from Link TO Biringer
as starting quarter is no reflection
on the formers ability. DoraiS eX-
planned his three quarterbackS
rate about on a par and the only
reason Biringer was getting the
call was because he is a senior.
Link and Hughes are both juniors.

9Th Golf Meet
Of Year Bagged
BY Mrs. Weiss
Shoots an 81 at
Lochmoor to Win
Weekly Tournament

Every golfer has his or her own
pet golf course, and for Mrs.
Donald Weiss. the wee SHOEMAKER
from Flint, it is Lochmoor.
over this course she won the
women's district three-day medal
play tournament and has won one
weekly event there. In the club
champions event she had the low
round for the women with 70.
Yesterday in the weekly event
of the womens district she made
things a clean sweep by winning
her eighth tournament of the year
with 41-40-8l over the same
links.
This was two shots better than
Margaret Russell and Mrs. w. j.
CheSbrough could do. In match
ing card for second gross, Miss
Russell won. She had 39-44-S3
while Mrs. esbrou had
I43s40-S3.
Mrs. Weiss blew her chances 20
be in the 70'S again with two 6's
on the back nine after being even
par for four holes. She siXed the
fourteenth and fifteenth.
Miss Russell had the best start
of the day with 80 on the first
side but 6's at 10, u and is
ruined her chances.
