The series dill be completed shortly with an article on Ashland.) !By CEOHGE CURTIS -Sports Editor Daily Courier Despite the fact that this is def toitely a "rebuilding year" for the Grants Pass Cavemen with only one regular returning from the 1933 quad that won only three games, last three and tied in two Coach Mel Ingram and his assistants teem to be optimistic about the team. lAiter the first eight workouts, In fant and backfield coach Ray Da vis agreed that their current back- field is stronger at every position! ttan it was at this time a year go, that there is more backfield .depth and that the line is strong er in some positions and probably has over-all strength at least equal to last year's. BETTER PASSING : The coaches and other qualified observers say the team will have better passing than at any time in recent years. The backfield, for the most part, will be light but with considerable speed. Perhaps the most outstanding characteristic of the current squad, however, is its hustle and desire to Dlav football. At times last year, Ingram' complained that some of . his boys "don't seem to want to olay football." He may have been justified, in view of the fact that It was nis poorest season oi uie nine through 193S since he came to Grants Pass in 1947. i But while the coaches are opti mistic, no one is predicting an un defeated season for the Cavemen, who must face such teams as the Marshfield Pirates, defending state champions; Medford, with a poten tial state title contender; Longview, North Bend, Klamath Falls, Roose velt of Portland, Roseburg, Ash land and Crater. 'Even in 1948, when Ingram won his first state championship in Ore gon, and 1953, when the Cavemen were runners-up to Central Cath olic, the team lost some games Onlv in 1950. and in 1951 when the Cavemen took their second state title, was the team undefeated all the way. GETTING CALL About that passing it will be coming from Stan Lewman, a 5 foot 8-inch senior who played chief ly as a defensive halfback last year, and who is getting the call ' ahead1 of Jim Smith, a 6-U4 jun ior. Smith, better known as a right handed baseball pitcher, can pitch football, too, and he has had Jayvee experience as a quarter back. Ingram and Davis say both boys are coming along fast, in ball handling and signal-calling as well as in passing. There may be changes later, but at the moment the left halfbacks are all of the scatback fype. They include a pair of seniors, Roger Taylor and Chuck Lasher, and junior, Jeff Loper. Taylor lettered as a defensive naitDacK last year but played very little on offense. Lasher is a transfer from Beaver ton, where he lettered as a re serve halfback. Taylor weighs , about 150, Lasher and Loper about 140.

Spar Jin, in particular, can snag passes. Jim Maryott, the Mooter who was a good hurdler last spring on the track team, is a first-line reserve at end. but so far appears ready for only defensive duty. He is a junior. -. Tackles include Larry Thompson, about 190, who started a few games last year; Larry Walker, about 185, who was a regular at center in 55; Chuck Baldwin, 220-pound jun ior, and Dick Graves, about 2b0. Thompson, Walker and Graves are senior lettermen. Baldwin played JV ball. Gary Hadsell. 190, and Doug Smith, about 180, both senior let termen, are leading candidates at guard. Smith is a converted center. Paul Slaven, 195-pound junior and brother of all-stater Arnold Slaven and Charles Case, 170-pound sen ior, are the current No. 2 men. Bob Allerheiligen, 185-pound senior and only returning regular on the squad, turned out late, has been appearing for only one workout a day instead of two and isn't ex pected to start or even to be used in the opening game against Hoose velt. NEW POSITION Dick Caldwell. 160-pound junior, is the only definite candidate for center, although 135-pound Bob Bob Fowler, another junior, was moved into the position for a try in mid-week. He had never played center before. The Cavemen lost 15 letterman seniors from the 1955 squad, in cluding all of the first-string backs and five first-string linemen. Only one starting regular, guard Bob Allerheiligen, is back. The 11th po sition, center, was filled alternate ly by four boys, Doug Smith, .Lar ry Walker and Dick Graves, now seniors and Lynn Cannon, who graduated. Regulars lost by graduation were quarterback Chuck Nevi, halfbacks Dave Flipse and Gary Hermann, fullback Allan Drews, ends Eddie Guise and Larry McFarland. tack les Arnold Slaven and Gary Krasue and guard Jim Dean. Ingram's assistants are the same as last year, Davis with the backs and young Bill Martell with the linemen.
