Flying Squadron, and the fcotball coaches are happy. Head Coach Bill Rafferty and |Coach Ed Hess agree that the in- jury of' four outstanding mén at | the beginning of the year has done | wonders for the team. Right now Buck Wright, fllll-! back; Jack Lavinder, halfback, and | Bill Kaylor and Charlie Straub, | tackles, are doing their best to get well, but theyll have a harder time getting back on the first team. When Wright broke a wrist, Ralph Waite, rugged senior from Livermore Falls, Maine, stepped in as fullback and put on a one-man raid on enemy lines that paid in touchdowns. Lavinder, a triple threat back, was hurt in practice, and in no time at all Bill Smith, 19-year-old quarterback from Birmingham, Al- abama, was whipping passes all over the field with deadly aim. | Capt. Johnny Gill was called back from end to do the punting previously handled by Lavinder, and the lanky cadet leader did such a good job of it he stayed put. | That left only Lavinder's run- ning, blocking, and defensive work to be accounted for, and these as-! signments have been taken over in grand style by Stumpy Travers, stocky little back from Alexandria, Va. | ..
