What is in store) for us during the '39 season? Will the same players continue to ] shine,or will-'some unknowns Hash! across the gridiron and tight theirj way to new glory ? But whether ( the stars of the coming season are! newcomers or oldsters, whether j they display their genius undei the blazing lights or on some re-1 mote campus, unheralded and un-i sung, the spark of football great-1 ness is theirs. Bo good luck t o| them, the glory hunting-new coni-i "ors~irrrct~Teteransfi for this wilt be1 rough, tough goings for the grid-J iron gamboleers, and may this be1 a great season with well trained | elevens plotting ojj the greatest' football show of all times. AT ALLEN. Nothing is hutder to forget than yesterday's greatness, unless "itrs "today's desuair. The former wrecking frpw W ? nYPrp nhndnw of itself and from the regular' bucktield of last year only Red Btaikey remains. Though berth a speed and power played Starkey will miss the dynamic blocking- oi.i Frank l'ulliani who could ride a| tackier clear out of the ball park. I 1 he - liiu:^.play will depend upon' how well Troy Sims fills the shoes1 oT James IJuckbtt-'at center. Sims! play last season was excellent and il he holds up, may bring the' once great pillars of steel thru, i "The one bright spot in Allen's out' look is a "sophomore named Wil-1 liam Brown, 6 ft. weighting 220 j pounds. Brown has a terrific charge, and is surprisingly fast, i This boy may be the nieaas of | bringing the once pioud Gold andj Blue back to the days when sho ran the show, and coaches put I their players to bed saying, if; yoy don't be good, that bad old i Allen will get you. AT BENEDICT Down in jungle town the Tigers of Beneict face a season of bright! prospects. Although Capt. Pughsley a really great athlete and] Big Brown will be hard to replace, the Swingtime Cats have' a veteran line returning that most1 coaches would give a lot to have. Benedict's schedule may be her worst enemy as she meets a gl'eat team from Florida early in- the season and coming through maybo a tough job, but the Tigers will be no bargain for /"their highly touted Golden Triangle rivals. IN ORANGEBURG State and Claflin look for banner years. State had a bad season last year, but those Bulldogs never stay down long, so beware the Bulldog. Claflin never has a real bad season and should be tougher than ever, so don't sell Claflin short. AT SAVANNAS The champions should be bettei this season with the whole regular squad returning. But Georgia State faces a very hard task i n repeating. Although she should be an improved team, so will throe an fan.. ~ i. wt i V'MI UUItl UU 11/ J US 1/ depends upon who has made the most improvement. AT AUGUSTA It is hard to predict about Paine She has a habit of being1 very good, or very bad. Last season Paine was a runner-up for the championship. And may put an equally as good team on the field this season. If so,>rcount on Paine for a lot of trouble. v AT LIVINGSTONE You can always expect one hard fight, and this year Livingstone might be the cream of the conference. With the rise and fall of play trig strength it becomes increasingly hazardous to attempt t o rate the "frams before season, so we hope for action aplenty, with stars galore, and no let up in the helter-skelter razzle dazzle1 t - THE PALMETTO LEA] Linen White Good Will Ambassador In The City R.
