Collegiate football begins pre-
liminary spring practices. Wayne
gridders are currently review-
ing plays and doing calisthenics
before spring training starts in
earnest.
Though it is too early to make
any prediction of the Tartar for-
tunes this year, it is hoped that
the boys will better last year's
record.
Coach Lou Zarza may lose some
players, but he is confident of
retaining some top caliber mate-
rial as some of the players are
veterans. Among them is regular
halfback Frank Rosenthal who is
rarin' to go this year, and is look-
ing forward to a good season.
Rosenthal was hampered in his
efforts last year because of in-
juries climaxed by a broken leg
suffered in a game with Bradley
at Ohio.
Frank, who has been working
out regularly, assures us that he
is fully recovered from last year's
injuries.
