NEW CASTLE, Ind. - Up -
New Castle High schools girl
gridder - comely blonde Agnes
Rifner whose speciality is
drop kicking, will have to wait
another week before she makes
her debut on the football field.
Agnes was kept on the bench
last night in the Trojan's open
ing game with Central OF Num-
Gle but Coach Griz Baker said
today she would see service in
next weeks game with Morton
Memorial of Knightstown.
Baker explained he kept his
girl drop kicker out of last
nights encnounter because the
players tempers, together with
weather conditions, were not
exactly ladylike. And New
Castle wasn't doing any too we'll.
Central won 81 10 6.
But the coach has faith in the
l6-year-old girls kicking abil-
ity He discovered her football
kicking talent a year ago and
urged her TO practise for a place
on the squad. She spent many
hours in practise during the
summer and won a berth.
Agnes father, watching her
work out, once asked Baker:
do you think you can make
a football player out of that
girl?"
Il already have" Baker re-
piled. She'll hit four out of
every five kicks from the Is
yard line"
The Indiana High School
/ Athletic Association had no
precedent to rule whether
Agnes participation was legal,
but Baker said he didn't need q
precedent.

Babies who recovered with

in the hospital about twice as

also gained weight less rapidly.
