and Treas. Watch This Space Weekly time. Seven letter men from last year are in camp working for their old positions, but they are meeting with plenty of opposition from members of last year's scrub teams. Coach Couch will have the task of building almost a new team, there being only four first team men eligible for the team this year. Eight letter men were lost by the Red Electrics last year.

Seawright, full back, graduated and will enter the University of Richmond; Conradi, plunging full back; Badger, half back and clever open field runner; West, guard; Owen, guard: Poole, end; Ward, half back and Garraux, tackle, have all passed on from the high school and their valuable services will be missed greatly. Magill, tackle, and Hendrix, guard, both extra good line men, will be lost due to over-age limit for high school players. John Hunsiner, veteran end and full back and William Ducket, fighting guard and tackle, are ineligible. The squad is composed largely of young and green material but shows promise of developing into veterans. Under the leadership of Captain Gill McManaway, veteran star quarter back, the men are showing fine spirt and eager to work despite the hot weather.

Besides Captain McManaway, Ernest Bull, center; Kenneth Cass and Harvey Cass, baok field; Robert Martin, tackle; Burke Martin, who iplayed end last year but is developing into a fine tackle, and Chucky Johnson, back field, are the only letter men out. Likely material for this year's line, which will average about 150 nounds, are Truett Wakefield, Bud Eskew, Fred Loftis, Dave Geer, George Wrigley, N. A. McKeithan, Dave Hunt, Bill Martin and Red Eisley. In the backfield the battle for positions will wax hard and furious.

Many men show promising goods. Jack Anthony, Harvey Cass, Carl Bell and Hugh Graham are competing for the quarterback position.
