Coach Gamage when asked for a
statement as to how his team would
prosper this season, said, "With a
team composed mostly of varsity
reserves of last year we cannot tell
how they will come out, but we can
promise that they will always put
up a scrap every Saturday whether
they win any games or not."
In the line this year are seven

classed as regulars, although they

regulars for the season. Two places

varsity was no indication of the
power of the varsity, but the frosh
were weak on the defensive. The
frosh had a nice passing attack,
but they failed to get to first base
with the varsity when they tried
their overhead slants. That Big

their foes this year. As a defensive
