their PAGES, Quinn pointed out
the leading candidates for vari-
Gus positions. In the backfield
the main burden of the ball tot
ing fell on the shoulders of the
Gallagher brothers, Emmett and
Don, while Jack Anderson is IN
charge of the passing and kick
ing and Dick Fox, husky ITO
bruiser is doing the plunging at
fullback. Emmett has the inside
track on the quarterback post
but is being pressed by several
sharp candidates.
Bob Kolp who was reserve
quarterback several years ago
has returned TO school and Quinn
says that with his added weight

colored end who stands six feet
2 and weighs 1870, He is scrap

thorne in any opponents sides.
At the tackle, Quinn can
boast three of the heaviest men
in state school circles. Ralph
Rosso shoots the scales to 270
and Tom Monte weighs 240 in
his birthday suit. But the beef
does not end here and Herbie
Van Rusten has to carry 272
pounds around with him. His
practise has been cut short be-
cause Quinn can't find a pair OF
shoes to fit him.
Fred Shaw, a letterman last
year, however is almost assured
of a starting assignment this
year.
Also putting up a stiff fight
for tackle spot is Bill elmer,
1874 pounds who won a letter
at DENLY last year.
A wild scramble is being made
for the Guard posts with Bob
Collins and Joe Carsons holding
the inside track for the position.
