(C 9 ntinued from Page ,1) the brighter side, the team has been bolstered by the addition of several outstanding transfer students. Among these ate: E. H. Holsworth, former R.P.I. guard, who will play end; huge Harry WUhelm, one-eighth-ton tackle, a former Syracuse letter- man; and hard-hitting Felix Siezga, star fullback of last year’s Bucknell Bisons. Some of the leading candi dates for .first-string posts are: ENDS -— Sal Barone, Harry MacWilliams, Len Serfustini, A1 Ruggerio aqd Wally Olson. TACKLES—Richard Bremer, Serofino Grotinelli, Jim Rot^l- son, Ted Schneider, Larry Dayer and Wilhelm. GUARDS — Jimmy Carroll, A1 Massey, and the “watch- charms” Frank Constantino and Frank Radzwill. c e n t e r s — Harold Houser, Ray Whelan and Carl Chotoff. BACKS — ix)u Corriere, Bill Rudick, Eddie Mittlesteadt, Vic Manz, Sal Amico, Vic Cleri, Felix Siezga, Frank Nappo, Paul Missaria, Ray Wodarczak, Henry Banas atid Hal Gerard. Anxious to maintain the Bulls’ high-geared scoring punch. Coach Peelle has stressed passing in the early workouts. The Bulls will run from a modi fied T-formation, which will offer plenty of scoring' oppor tunities to such speedy backs as Corriere, Mittlesteadt, Missana, Nappo. and Siezga. Triple-threat Lou Corriere is again expected to be the main spring of the Blue and White atack, and appears to be at the peak of his career. The 24-year- old Lockport flash scored 138 points in the 1942 and 1946 sea sons, and is again counted on for his long punting and spot passing.
