Thursday night Coach Jerry Dellinger was a little more optimistic concerning his team and expressed the belief that despite injuries and illness the boya would play a good game.The er.d department which has been giving Dellinger most of his worry during the past few days, is beginning to show some improvement despite three of the lads being out because of injuries and illness. Both Norman Brunton and Bruce Walker are definitely out, but it is pc-ssible that Jerry Decker may be able to play a portion of the game. Mark McDermott and Bill Dement are scheduled to start the game in the end positions.Deffenbaugb In Bob Delfenbaugh, tackle, will take Duane Gilmore’s place who is also on the doubtful list because of an injury. Mike Fahey will also start in this departmentTentative starters in the batk-field will be John Baxter, Royce Noland, Ted Meinhart, Don Full r and Jim Herr. Kerr did an outstanding job for the Imps Thursday afternoon when they defeated Day-ten 20 to 0. Don Klicker will probably get in the game *ome, although fjness kept him out of practice for a few day*- Whether Jay Childers will be able to play was still undetermined Thursday night Carl Meyers will probably get a workout also.No starters have been named in the guard spot although __ Jerry Jessee and Bob Engel will both undoubtedly see plenty of action, along with Ray Edinger and Bill McCaw. Dellinger was also uncertain as to whether Jim Robinson or Jim Fowler would start the game ae tackle.Richland will apparently pin their hopes in Yaggi, quarterback and Hinkson, fullback for the Beavers. They run from a deep T formation with a balanced line and may or may not send a man in motion to the side. So far this season Richland has won one game and lost one.Richland's tentative line-up probably will look something like,this: Col-hi. .Keplinger l.e, Jones Lt, Mem-nan tg., Larabee fl.. McCoy r.g., Carter r. i. Brewer i.e., Yaggi q.b., Hickson r.h-b., Hinkson f.b.Giar th.b.'Many of Wa-Hi's underclassmen will get experience in the game Friday night.Make AppearanceMaking their first appearance this year the drum majorettes will parade with the band during half time of the game.
