Stanley Wright and Dave Teeter were up state this weekend. They were going full guns with the sweet young things' chief specialist father, but even with the aid of their rank they couldn't get the car.

Item 3--The changing of the guard is a thing watched with some interest. It's our candid and we hope not inopportune prediction that we'll see Louie Swain as Battalion Commander, Charlie Hebden as sub commander, Bill Harrington as Company 1 commander, and Dave Schneider as Company 2 commander.

...Perkins and Don Goeson, holdovers from the 1943 eleven, will be Lamar's chief pass-snarers, as well as bulwarks on the defense. Perkins set up the winning touchdown last Saturday when he grabbed a long heave from Ed Navin on the 15 yard line. Dana Bresnahan and Dave Mcluthoss will fill in at the wings...
