Coach ’cols that he will have a -hifty combination ready to e the A thena eleven on the wheat elt ETldiron this Friday in the first ■ame of the season. Although the team will be at a dls- aiTi anta;;e because of lack of weight. •(.’'. rich cibson Is relying on speed and deception. The line will be the light est in several seasons, averaging no more than 140 pounds, but the back- rield will be made up of veterans. Due to graduation, only three vete ran linemen are back In this year's llneap. The backfield will be prac tice ly the same as last season, with the exception of Kennings, veteran arter and captain-elect. Due to injuries received last year Kennings Is unable to turn out for practice now, but will probably be back in his old position later in the season. Coach Cibson has a system of his own which he calls "The Wing Back System," and by this Idea he believes he will have a much more effective passing combination with no strength lost in bucking the line. Another new Idea is the unbalanced line which will greatly aid In protecting the- passer and yet leaving the forward wall as effective as ever In gaining yardage thru the line. Coach Gibson expresses himself by saying, “A football team Is -only as strong as Its substitutes and unless we discover a few more good second string men, we will be greatly handi capped. Altho we have practically an entire new line to develop, I feel confident that we will give any team our size a fight to the finish. I would like to see a few more men turning out so we could give the first string something to work aganst, but we can play football with eleven men and as long .as ws have eleven men, good and true, wt will play football.” The schedule is not yet complete but at present there are five games assured, with prospects of three more. Of the scheduled games, the first ts with Athena this Friday, at Athena. Two games are scheduled with Hepp ner, the first to be here during the Umatilla Project Fair. Carnes are a|so assured with Kennewick and Pendleton, and Condon, Pilot Rock and Arlington are good prospects. Last year's lettermen who are back In the harness are: Felthouse. Nat ion and Smith, backs; Martin. Whit sett and Addleman, linemen. Some new men • who are promising mater ial* are Ernest and Bob Cox. Merltn Earnheart, Gerald Haddox, Bob Ben nett, Fred Reeves, Charles Hunt, Ed win Throop, Chester Harris and Jas. Neary. Friday's lineup will be Oscar Whitsett, center; Ernest Cox and Fred Reeves, guards; Bob Cox and Victor Addleman, tackles; Gerald Haddox and Enos Martin, ends; Billy Felthouse, quarter; Merlin Earn heart and Leonard Nation,, halfs; Jewell Smith, full/ Bob Bennett and Edwin Throop will probably be given a chance to win tbelr spurs as they are both good, aggressive men. Harold Bills, a three year back field star from Enterprise, started in sdhool this week and will be out for practice soon. This means another good man for the Hermiston team. Last year the Hermiston team was a strong contender for county hon ors, and prospects this year Indicate that our boys will again bring home many honors.
