Gonzogo Grid Prospects Dark;
Only One Lettermon on Squad
(Another in a Series.)
By Brion Bell, Jr.

From riches to rags may be
the story this year for Joe Kosik
Gonzaga football coach. Last sea-
son his power-laden squad ran
roughshod over most of its 'oppo-
sition - this year one letterman
returns.
The Eagle coach was shaking
his head sadly at the Thirty
fourth and Benning practice field
after yesterdays scrimmage.
They're green as grass" he
moaned. "You can just say I'm
building for next year. I'm giving
the boys as much rough work as
possible to try and give them
some experience before the sea-
son starts-some of them haven't
even played football before"
Much of Kosik's pessimism can
be crossed off as a coach's pre-
season blues when faced with an
inexperienced squad. but it is true
that the picture is far from bright.
DrlSuG SpOt dt EHu.
With Bucky Byrne at guard the
only returning letterman. the first
team is literally stated with
sophmores. Kosik is counting on
veteran ends Ralph Bran and
Russell Shipley-a couple of g.
foot-plus pass-catchers-to supply
two bright spots in the line. The
rest of the forward wall-except
for Byrne-is made up of boys
who played little or none last
year.
Joe Lasick, 15-year-old tackle
who tips the scales at 220, may
help out but he needs experience.
Jun Muller probably will play the
other tackle. Mike Tyler and
Mike Warner, sophs, are fighting
1t out for the remaining guard
spot. Center George Freeman hurt
his back last season and reinjured
it again this year and he's out
Indefinitely. Ronnie Redmond has
the job right now.
In the backfield things are not
50 bleak. Gonzaga has a hard
driving fulback in Lane McCallum
and a, nice prospect in Leo Di VAL
entino - Is year old halfback.
Bernie Lauck is holding down the
other half and Mike Lukas the
blocking back spot. Dick Burke
is another back who will see ac-
ton.
