Gracey
he possessed much ability in vic-
ious tackling and blocking. Many
an opposing halfback felt the
power of this stalwart lad,« both
on defense and offense. His
understudy was Alvin Sterley,
whom we hope is able to take
his place. ^

Alvin Sterley, stellar backfield
I man \Vho lias been counted one to
j till the shoes of Howard Gracey,
' suffered a broken collar bone last
week in practice. Sterley will
not be able to return to the drills
this spring, but his showing during
the first fty,\ weeks of training
convinced'Miller he will be a
threat for a starting position next
fall. Sterely is only a freshman
this year and is really expected to
,go places during the next three
years.
Raul Manriquoz, another fresh-
man, has been showing much
promise during the spring drills.
The little .spejed merchant from
North Side along with Sterley
will give the Rams more, speed
and power ip the bakcfleld next
fall.
| Other promising freshmen who
! have been looking good in prac-
; tice include: Ed (Lard) Brand,
j Joe Turner, James Zaehary, Jolin-
I nie Hunter ,Ernie Saliba, George
Spahr, and others.
The squad will continue the
drills for about two more weeks
before putting aw ay their uniforms
until next fall. °

golfers to an easy victory
over McMurry college team.
The Rams succeeded in taking
every game of the match at
Roekwood course.
Other members of Coach* Ver-
non Willoughby''s team that com-
peted were Sam ,Green, John E.
Smith, and Low* 11 Rainwater.
Dawson, playing number one,
has been the most consistent
member of the team, shooting in
the low seventies" on every occas-
IV
ion.
Tennis
The Wesleyan tennis team also
opened* its schedule at Sydfimore
Park Tuesday, playing the Mc-
Murry boys.
The Rams were only able to
get a tie on this, winning two
singles matches and one doubles
and dropping an1 equal number.
Raymond Barnes and Raymond
Talkington were the big winners
for the Rams as they both took
their singles matches and then
teamed together as the victorions
doubles combination. Bob Mc-
Clung and D. B. Bounds also
played well for the Rams but
were unable to pull any of their
games out of the fire.
Much is expected of tfre Rams
this season since aM^rour mem-
bers are lettermcn from last
year's squad.

His fine shooting and marvelous
defensive work were potent fac-
tors in the Rams' wins which
earned for them a tie for second
place in the conference race. His
outstanding play won for him a
well-deserved place on several all-
conference teams. He was a real
leader, off the floor as welT as on,
and his clean living, besides his
fine playing were sources of in-
spiration to his teammates. His
record should be a challenge to
all freshman athletes' who aspire
to like fame and prominence. Let
us have more like him for a long
time to come. „

loose in these soccer gam$s.
There are a few other girls com-
ing out for soccer, but they haven't
had time to prove to captain June
Marshall that they are worthy of
soccer mention in this sport col-
umn. So, fel!,pws, get busy and
show her you are willing to heave

Don't get tho big head, soccer
team, because you have a big or-

They deserve a fait, so let's give it

They were: Edward Brand,

on the TW line and Ann Parlor.

Tommy Brents wing-back from
Vega. Tommy is very elusive on

Joe is very shifty on the held and

Three uther boys missed letter-
