Three of the lot Morgan, Moore

their rugged physique and football
training, are better than the aver
age freshman player today. If they

team without a struggle, hundreds
of Hogue Hiver valley fans will al

does not seem possible that eani-
: pus polities could be strong enough
to e:ist them aside so all sections
of the state would be represented
on the frosh squad.
.Morgan is a big fellow who plays
tackle: Moore is a flashy half
! back, and Rernard Hughes is a
rough, tough renter. Alt. use their
heads as well as their hands and
feet when playing football, and can
take care of themselves any place.
Morgan and Huk'hes are husky six

lines, but has strength nnd speed.
