Delaware giving Cubit a long look A Del. Bill Cubit, former All-Delco football player at Sharon Hill among the 87 hopefuls now on hand for the i i of Delaware's pre-season toot ball camp. Cubit, all-star performer in basketball and baseball as well as football in addition to i the most valuable player in each of these sports, I arm on a Bohs' switch bolsters line for Widener CHESTER KKNNY BOHS. a 215-pourid senior from Upper Darby, has been shifted from guard to tackle to bolster the offensive line at Widener College. Bohs, and junior Bob Nuvot- ni, a 225-pounder from Harrisburg, currently have the inside track on the starting offensive tackle positions left vacant by the graduation of Team Leader John llhnbart of Millville, N.J.

and All-Conference Timmy Snyder of Wescoville. The offensive line was one of the highlights of last season's 8-1-0 team which ranked second in the nation in rushing offense with an average of 331.8 yards per game. How well Bohs and Novotni' fill in for Rhubart and Snyder will have' plenty of bearing on the Pioneers' success in 1973. "RIGHT NOW, Bohs is our key man," Coach Bill Manlove said. "We know pretty much what Novotni can do.

He was our 'third tackle 1 last year and saw considerable a i subbing for the regulars. "But Bohs suffered a knee i just as he was breaking into the starting lineup at guard. He missed a good part of the season. "Kenny returned this year for pre-season drills in great shape. He might be a half-step slower because of a knee' operation, but he's bulked up to about 215 pounds and he's a good, tough player.

We feel confident he'll do a good job for us." BOHS, a graduate of Bonner High, first attracted coaches attention last season for his stellar, hard hitting a on Pioneers' specially teams. Coach Manlove announced a dozen players had dropped his 80-man squad following the first week of intensive two-a-day drills in HOTIS man' the searing upper-90-degree heat. "I won't say the heat was the prime factor in all cases," Manlove said, "some of the guys just were tired of football. But the intense heat certainly made their decision an easier one." A has a position changes, switching defensive a a Hopkins of Burlington, N.J. to tight end, moving Jim Melscheimer from defensive tackle to offensive guard and changing defensive end Sal Oropollo of Water ford, N.J.

back to his original spot at linebacker. Earlier, Maniove announced that Tony Simmons, starring wide receiver in '72, had been changed to safety where he is vying with former St. James High teammates, John Shallet and John Warrington, for two starting berths along with Bob Young of Philadelphia's Cardinal Dougherty High. Last year's regulars, three-year vets Pat Pnckly and Bruce Eveleth. have been graduated i Eveleth joining the Pioneer coaching staff.

Knights in battle for playoff spot ASTON The A Knights, who were tied for first place in the Seaboard Football League's Southern Division two weeks ago, now find themselves in third place and struggling for a playoff position. The Knights, who dropped a 23-14 decision to the Albany Metro Mailers last weekend, take on the Hagerslmvn Boars Saturday at Snn Valley High. The game marks the midpoint of the Knights' 10-gmne league schedule. It also gives Aston (2-2) a chance to gain a tie with Ilagerstown (3-1) for second place. The Bears battled into a second overtime period before i a last weekend.

Fil Pompilii is stiil disturbed over his team's sudden reversal after three consecutive wins to open the season. excuses, we just got a Saturday," he said following Tuesday's practice. "One i I do notice, though. Whenever we're on the road, we play before 5,000 or 6,000 fans and it seems like we're playing against more than 11. man." The Knights have averaged loss than 700 fans in their first two homo games despite having fine local talent and playing exciting football.

Management hopes that the a i i a rivalry between the Knights and Boars (only one game beUvoon the loams of the five they have played lias been decided by more; a one touchdown) will boost attendance.

"He is really playing well thus far," said head coach Tubby Raymond, the nation's top College Division coach the past two seasons. "Me is a inn! ti-talented quarterback who has good speed and perhaps the finest throwing arm on the squad.

"His main drawback has been recurring knee problems i a i mobility', 1 1 continued the coach. "But, he came back in excellent shape, and lie ranks as a fine prospect." CUBIT'S main obstacle this year could be the same as last Hens' lop quarterback has returned for his final season. Last season, Scotty Reilim led the Hens to their first ever 10-0 regular season record, and he will be back for an encore this year. a i experience, Cubit saw limited action in 1972 while earning his letter. "Because Bill is the lone underclassmen among our experienced quarterbacks, I would expect he will see con- siderable action this year," said a i because we would want him lo gain added experience for next year." Although Bill decided to play football at Delaware, he could have chosen either basketball or baseball and done well.

He played all three at Sharon Hill earning four letters in baseball and three each in football and basketball and captained each sport. His senior year was particularly memorable as his football team went 8-1, while the basketball and summer league baseball teams each had 15-1 records, and all three teams won their respective league titles.
