Yet Hughie's hopes for some high class halfbacks are not too dark for the freshman prospects warrant good things, and suitable replacments ought to file from their midst. Nugent Missing

Missing from the Spring drills be• cause of conflicting baseball activi• ties is Vin Nugent, who featured in all the games last fall windiing up by running wild against State. "Slug", grabs the ball in one hand like a loaf of bread, and it takes a lot of stop• ping to bring him down. Football, basketball, and baseball have all come under his sway, and Vin has starred in all three ever since his ear• ly days at La Salle. In addition to his triple-threat achievements on the gridiron, the rugged Junior scintill• ates from a guard position on the basketball courts, and also excells around second base during the base• ball season.

"Buffalo Bill" Carter. Nugent's run• ning mate, will be back for another year causing trackers no end of trouble with his deceptive runs. The New Bedford Junior passes and kicks from the port side getting plenty of distance and accuracy on both. Nor does lack of weight prevent high- stepping Bill from being one of the squad's best tacklers. His adeptness in deciphering enemy plays before they get started won him due recog• nition last fall. He is an alumnus of Holy Family High in his native city, weighing clase to 160 pounds and rising to a five feet nine inch mark.

The other holdover, Joe Byron, needs no build-up. Although he man• aged to get into the game only in the waning minutes his 23-yd. off-tackle gallop against State was one of the features of the Providence victory. Here is one athlete who really loves his sport, and who. no doubt, would enjoy himself just as much playing in someone's backyard to an audi• ence of tin cans as he would before cheering thousands in the Rose Bowl, lorio Looks Good

Sam Iorio has looked good so far in these pre-seasonal warmups, mak• ing a determined bid to land a first string job. Sam is a shifty, swivel- hipped runner who really can carry the mail. The five feet 8 inch, 170 pound back's chief asset, however, is the accurate passing ability. This alone will give him some busy Satur• day afternoons next fall. The true speed merchant of the halfbacks is Johnny Yockers. the rol• licking freshman from West New York. New Jersey. He proved his durability only recently when he de• feated a fine field in the first annual Rover Boys road race, grinding over a punishing course in remarkable time. He can pass, kick and run, weighs 170 and stretches out to five feet eight inches. Sophomore Jack Levey of Albany. N. Y. currently assisting Elt Deuse with the catching chores on Art.
