Pointing for the opening game with Andover at Andover on Saturday, the Freshman football squad is working out industriously on Soldiers Field every afternoon and is gradually shaping into a powerful football club.
The players have already been put through several tough scrimmages and Coach Cliff Gallagher has lined up a Team a recruited from schoolboy gridiron stars. Richard D. Pedrick seems to have the edge over the other quaiter backs in the signal calling post and teams up well with George S. Ford, Lee A. Faker, and Thomas H. Riledean to complete the first-string backfield.
Ecker and Ford will be remembered as the flashy pair that ran wild over opposition when they worked together on the Belmont High outfit last year. Biledean was a star of the Fxeter eleven last fall and looks like a comer in the fallback position. Charles W. Kessley, leader of the Salem High team of a year age, is holding down the left guard niche.
The 1937 first team as they lined up yesterday is as follows: Nicholas Filed man, Le; Edward R. Simmons, l.f; Charles W. Kessler l.g., Chester H. Brown, c, William R. Lane r.g; Beury M. Adlis, r.f; Gaffney, l.e.; Richard R. Pedrick q.b.; George S. Ford l.h.b.; Leo A. Ecker, r.h.b.; Thomas H. Riledean r.b.
