With his im- " mense strength and football experience he should be one of the great players of the Coast season. Grimm has been slightly laid up for a few days with a strained shoulder, but he will start Saturday’s game with the U. S. S. Idaho. Washington's strength this year is in the forward line and much is expected of the big Centralia star when the long grind of the Coast season starts.
