The letter- men will have a hard time holding the places they earned last year with such men as Christian, Magrill, Abbey, Overton and Dawson, fight ing for a place in the line and Wolfe, Dansby, Clark, and Phillips looking for a place in the backfield. Coaches Bell, Reid and Holmes, all new men, say that the field is wide open and past records count for nothing. Competition Keen in Backfield. In the backfield five lettermen will return, Bible, Mills, Conover, Dor sey, and Zarafonetis. At present Dor sey is out with a broken thumb and Zarry has just arrived. He is in good shape and ready to bear down with the others who have had one weeks training on him. Coach Bell has two real problems: he needs a capable field general and a strong line. Bible, Dorsey, Conover and Dansby have been calling signals lately and probably he will find his man in this quartet. Bible and Dor sey ran the team for the most part last year; Captain Mills is getting a shot at the position and may get the job. For the other backfield berths, Bell has Phillips, Woodman, and Sessions from last year’s squad and Clark, Davis, McFadden, Rees, Sebesta, Snyder, and Wolfe from the freshman and intramural teams. with Alsabrook and Tracy and a wealth of other material to choose from. Besides these two veterans are Varnell and Ewell. Both showed up well in spring training and are ex pected to make the two lettermen hump for their jobs. Varnell was a back on the ’27 and ’28 squads and Ewell was a letterman at tackle. O’Dowd, star intramural wing, is showing up very well. With Ewell on end, the Aggies have no lettermen available at the tackle positions, but Coach Bell is expecting the husky sophomores to come through. Dawson, 229-pound, six-foot four tackle, Overton, Broiles, Mouldq'n, Fischer, Mortellra, and Thompson are all ready to step into the position and a merry battle is being waged. The Aggies are better fortified at the guard position with two letter- men back and a wealth of material that is nearly as good as the tackle hopefuls. The two veterans back are Van Zandt and Richter. The others on which much depends on how they come through are Jack Christian, former All-State man, Golasinski, Hedrich, Moore, Magrill, Laboa, and Gusman. In Joe Brown the Aggies have a possible All-Conference selection, and little is feared in this quarter with such reserve strength as Abbey and Anderson. Christian may also see service at this position.
