THE REDSKINS are hosts to the
GIouster Tomcats this week in
another Muskingum Valley lea
que game on the local field. With
SIX consecutive wins and the
Phllo game safely past, fans are
beginning to concede the champ
lonship and an undefeated seas
on to the Redskins already. Be-
fore anyone puts the jinx on this
team, it might be well to bear
In mind that spirit and deter
mination have helped bring the
boys this far along the victory
trail, but it will still take plenty
of these qualities to finish out
the remaining three games. While
too much trouble is not expected
from win-less Glouster, the Red
skins must face a dangerous
Crooksville eleven on their own
field, then finish off with their
traditional rivals from the Twin
Cities. This is the game where
the record book goes out the win
dow and the underdog has his
day. Under the skillful handling
of Coach Saunders, the Redskins
have already posted a record of
six straight victories, which even
the Caldwell league champs of
1899 were unable to do. That
year, they won six and lost two,
both losses to non-league oppon-
ents, but four consecutive wins
was their streak.
GLOUSTER has dropped all six
starts this year, bowling to New
Concord 1910, Dresden 1876, Philo
1910, Rosecrans 1916, Crooksville
58-6 and M & NJ 36-13. The Tom
cats, who have new coach in
Ralph Powless, lost their star
fullback Lloyd Dugan on injuries
before the season opened. He has
been out of the lineup so far this
year, but recent reports indicate
he may be ready to go any time
now.
THE TOMCATS, who were run
nerS-up to Philo last year, were
hard hit by graduation and have
only three starters back from the
1851 season. They are center
Fred Hedfelt and halffbacks Jack
Stephenson and Larry Schoenian.
Their squad lists six seniors and
10 juniors. Last year, the husky
Tomcats had little trouble as
they ground out 26-14 win over
the Redskins with Dugan passing
to Kirby for two touchdowns and
Stephenson running for two
more.
THE LINEUP for Glouster will
contain only four seniors, but
the line will average 169 pounds
due to the 205 center and 210
tackle. The backfield will average
lat pounds, relying upon speed
rather than weight with Dugan
out of the lineup. Probable start

LE-Jan Angle (16O) ------ Jr.

LG-Jerry Hartley (150) - Sr.
