From then until now he has been ripping and slash ing his way to the position of out standing freshman backfleld man. Reddy states that Baker will un doubtedly be first string before the season la over, and that Ghelardl Is showing great in practice. Ghelardl la small and possibly will never play regularly on the varsity, being a shade too tiny for the Notre Dame system used at Gonzaga. but It is a certainty that the swivel-hipped lit tle bock will see plenty of action when the going gete tough.
