nmumu i HUWARD ALEXANDER--IR. Howard is another junior whom the coaches have great hope. l-le plays in the line at a tackle or guard position and is one tough baby to toss out of the road. He is rather small, but plenty powerful. DELBERT IONES--SR. Dells transferred from Cham- paign and after he became accustomed to the single wing from the T-formation, Coach Freemuth ran him at wing back. He was called on a great deal for defensive work, at which he was very superb. 4 f t , , 4' . x 'if W gm ,. wr' 0 0 , f ' r - l . 8 if Hwfi fifr t . . ff, . Y . - T Yi . ,P , if I QIOIIN ELLIS--I R. Plug is a demon on defense and isn't to be laughed at when he starts pulling passes down the blue heavens. He works very smoothly from his end position and if things are right there won't be a much tougher end in the conference cofne fall of 1950. HO B MANIUEL--J R. Bob, a hari running junior who loves to carry the pigslcin over the little white line that pays off, played fullbaclf when Elmer was injured and 'lil an excellent job. Both coaches and fans are expecting hizn to do great things next fall. mhmmw LLOYD FRAY--SR. Lloyd completed his fourth year of football playing both tackle and guard, and did a very good job at both positions. He could always be counted on to turn in a good defensive game and will be missed in the line. FRANK LUBBERS--SR. Frank was one of the work- horses of the squad. He did'nt see much action but was usually one of the first out to practice and one of the last to leave. His spirit will be hard to beat in years to co rre. Such a player deserves as much or more credit than the so called stars. ff ,X v ' t
