With Sanger up front were end Braxton Pinkins; tack- les Don George, a nonlettering squad member last ea. son, and Jerry Ohl in; guards Jim Romig, returned to hi s original position after one season at end, and Ray Glaze, and center Dennis Magee. In the backfield were quarl!'rback Jop Duke, halfba · Cecil McGehee and Lany :::ichimpt and fullback Karl Jordan. Magre was one o( several pla) ers who hnd been ounted out as ineligibles. However, he brought up his grades in summer school, along with halfhnr-k 'l! ike 'J arlton and tackle Bob Moss, who played quite a hit o! C<'ntc•r last year al- though he didn't letter.

Labor Day was labor day, literally, for 157 football candidates as San Diego State College, University of San Diego and San Diego Junior College opened grid work- outs yesterday. Coach Paul Governali greeted a turnout o! 36 at SDSC and professed to be completely in the dark as to what the future holds for his athletes.

Schutte said his club lacked the speed and quickness of last year's squad, which won seven and lost two. Thir- teen lettermen were among the candidates. The Knights can field lettermen at every position but quarterback. Holdovers Cleveland Jones and Larry Martin will carry the ofiensive load at the halloaC'k slots. Other lette1·men are Cliff Long and Tom Paden, ends: Fred Puliafico, Carl Lorenz, Paul Doherty and Bob Hatcher, tackles; Paul Werts and Ed Ferreras, guards; Al Jacobus, cen- ter, and John' Ekberg, fullback. "C really don't know how we'll do," the Aztecs' GOV<'t·• nali said after the start of twice-daily prartice. "We ha~e so many new kids. "I have one veteran team," he addC'd, "and It \\'Oil two and lost seven last year. But I'm not pessimistic Jet. It will take a week or 10 days, just shifting the play- ers around and finding out what they can do."
