A. Fantasia is not q new word
though Walt Disney turned it from

every one. The Greeks, who ap-

used it ages ago as phantasia. The
modern word spelled with IF" in

A. The expression originated In

Improvement on the 1850 eleven
which won only there games.
Tranen, a brilliant tailback, did
most of the scoring last season.
but this year it should be split
up with a smoother working back
field to replace an individual star.
With five backs returning,
Coach Gil Conn is satisfied his
team will be all right in this de-
partment, although he would like
more weight on his ball carriers,
The line has three lettermen
with the other positions taken
care of by promising players from
the junior varsity and the 1850
squad. AS with most high school
teams, lack of reserve strength is
the problem.
Team Spirit Improved.
"We'll win some games-I don't
know which ones yet-and we
won't concede any game" Conn
says, adding: II will say this team
has more spirit than last years
and the boys are all trying hard" :"
Coolidge may be slow reaching
its peak. Conn and Assistant
Coach Carl Heintell didn't call the
squad out until four days before
school opened and then for only
orle-a-day workouts. Other teams
went out a couple of weeks earlier
and most held practice twice a day.
They'll be a bit ahead of the Colts
