The outlook is brighter at tail
back and center. Charley Milstead

ific struggle at tailback and both

Defensive positions are new to
every player except the three cap
tains — end John Tracey, tackle
Ken Beck and blocking back Dick
Gay. These three are the only
sure starters.
At the other positions there is
strong rivalry for the starting
berths, all very pieadng to the
roaches. If the competition contin

week of practice, the Aggies will
