Teams Begin to Set Starting Lineups as Drills Continue Eft I PAY, AUG. 24, 1962, Uke Charles American Press. if The starting lineups have begun to take shape in two of Calcasieu parish's Class AAA t- ball camps, while many of the starting jobs are wide open in the other. The starting 11 at LaGrange appears almost set after an important position change by coach Jimmy Austin Thursday, while coach Jack Doland reports only two positions unsettled at Sulphur. Lake Charles coach Roy Collins, on the other hand, states that things are still wide open in the Wildcat camp.

The big news Thursday was the announcement that John Demarie has been moved from fullback and returned to his position at guard, where the big 210-pounder excelled last season. making the transition of Demarie to a fullback unnecessary. This latest switch will serve to add speed both to the backfield and to the line. As a result, Gary Guins will move to fullback to back up regular Rusty Fry, while the halfbacks will come from a group of swifties that includes James McGee, Ancel Wilkinson, Wayne Savoy and John Delaney.

Landry coach Jim McNally sent his crew through a light workout orientated toward play tming in preparation for Invad- ng Lake Arthur, while at DeQuin- cy, more or less the same procedure was followed on the eve of a meeting with Merryville. Coach Billy Lantrip listed only two positions, an end and a guard, as being open on the starting De- Quincy eleven.

"For the first time this year, we were dragging," complained West Lake boss Talmadge Core allowing his Thursday workout. 'We tried to scrimmage a bit, but the kids just wouldn't go all out."

game that rates in the "must" category for Chennault. Even should the SACers win, they would have to come back and beat Offutt again on Saturday to win the double-elimination affair. A pair of key doubles and the clutch pitching of Rene Miller were the highlights of the Chennault victory. The first of these blows, coming off the bat of center fielder Bazar with the sacks full in the first inning, plated two runs and set the stage for two more in a four-run frame that had the local team off and wining. Miller, himself, struck the second two-base clout, this one cleaning the bulging sacks as a climax to a five-run fourth frame.

On the mound, Miller stayed in hot water most of the night, giving up 10 hits and five walks. But 11 strikeouts, most of them in key situations, enabled him to leave 13 Barksdale runners hanging on the sacks and keep the Bossier City team from scoring until the seventh inning. Miller's 11 whiffs gives him a total of 25 for the two tournament games in which he has worked. Although Chennault was outhit in the game, 10-8, the SACers were materially aided by six Barksdale miscues afield. Arthur Krueger and Bazar led the way for the SACers with two hits each, while Larry Wright was the Barksdale batting leader with three hits in five trips.

He will be assigned to Burlington, Iowa, in the Three I league. LOCAL FANS MAY HAVE seen the last of Charles (Cotton) Nash, the big youngster who performed basketball miracles at Lake Charles High and then moved on to the University of Kentucky. Nash's father, Frank, has been transferred to Leominster, by Dupont. The Hashes came here in 1959 and took up residence in Lake Charles because Texas athletic rules would have required Cotton to lay out of athletics for a full season. The elder Nash has commuted to Orange, Texas, during the family's stay here.

Cotton was a frequent visitor here during the past summer and played baseball with Chennault Air Force base's crack team, but will probably spend the off- seasons in New England in the future. USL'S ENGLISH IMPORT, Malcolm Robinson, recently posted a 9:07.6 two-mile in the Dean Cromwell track meet at Culver City, California.

NORTHEAST STATE COLLEGE is still adding athletes at a wild pace.

The most recent acquisitions are a four-sport star from Winnfield and four North Louisiana basketball stars.
