Newcomers On C U Grid Squad Add Fresh Faces
The C U football squad enters week two with 46 players adding several candidates to the roster. Coach Grover Nutt remains optimistic about size and spirit, though inexperience shows as a costly two run error and limited practice time challenge the group. Harvey Kuenn led Detroit with three hits as the Tigers beat the A's 12 to 5 in a 12 hit game. Carl Riggs of Hutchinson joined late, while Virgil Trucks is back in form after an earlier leg injury. LaVerne Barnes of Hutchinson is a sophomore end competing for time. Keith Brooks from Sabetha showcases the single wing style and could be a backfield staple. Brooklyn Dodgers promote two pitchers Templeton and Elston to bolster fall workouts as plans for a Friday night intrasquad game form.
