either at left half or fullback.
GARY PREP STAR
The young Negro back played
last year with Roosevelt High,
Gary, and was rated with Bob
Zelesk of South Bend as the best
backs in the state. He has speed
and hits the line with the impact

high schools in scoring for two
years and threw one pass for Il
yards, a high school record.
Ben Raimondi. a hard running
veteran, will be at quarterback.
John Cannady is back with the
squad and likely will start at full
back. AT wing g-hack- is Dick De-
rank, who averaged seven yards
every time he carried the ball
last year.

schemeyer, the left halfback who
led the aerial circus that beat
Michigan last year. That doesn't
mean Michigan won't have to
worry about Bob this year. He is
currently one of the standout can
