Flu Hinders RR in Drill For Eagles Rogue River Practice hasn't been going too good at Rogue River this week as the Chieftains prepared for their Thursday night game at Eagle Point. And coach Tinker Hatfield has indi cated that the flu bug may be mostly to blame. Missing practice because of bad colds this week have been guard Don Hoffman, quarter back Bob Bigman and defensive starter Doug Stewart. Quite a few other players have colds. Tackle Bill Dotson has a thumb injury that may keep him out of Thursday action. Morale has been low along with the injuries and sickness, Hatfield stated. Passing has been getting attention in workouts and more conditioning training has been in order than in the two previous weeks. The mentor was hopeful that the Chiefs can make history re peat itself by slowing down the big EP club and pulling an up set. But he is a bit skeptical of the Chiefs' chances. If Hoffman is unable to play, Hatfield will move Steve Scott from tackle to guards and Charles Weaver from center to tackle with freshman Harry Mc Cabe playing center. Absence of Bob Bigman will mean moving Bill Dixon to quarter with Bill Morrow playing guard. INJURIES HIT STANFORD Stanford, Calif.
