LINCOLN GRIDSTERS
Both Cross-State and· City titles will be at stake in the game thi�r afternoon. A tie would bring about a three-way tie in the City League. A win by Stadium would constitu-ce a tie for the Cross-State title. A win by Lincoln will give the Railsp!itters both titles. Coach Norm Mayer's gridders will enter to day's fracas with seven lett�rmen from last year. They are: Glen Huffman, right e:µd; Ray Cheslik, left guard; Chuck Forslund, left tackle; Jack Newhart, left end; Art Viafore, quarterback; George Chapin, left halfback; and Ed Munt, right half. The rest of the members of the starting eleven either saw sophomore, reserve, or first team action last year. Lincoln, after taking third place in the Grid-Go Round, were held to a scoreless tie by Stadium at the dedication of the Lincoln Memorial Bowl. The Railsplitters are undefeated this season but have two ties marring their slate. They faced Bremerton the week after the Kings-X game and were victorious by a 21-7 mar gin. In a non-league tussle, the Railsplitters and Vancouver battled to a 6-6 deadlock. Then the Axemen took three Cross-State vic tories, blanking Seattle Prep, 28-0; Everett, 31-0, and subduing Bellingham to the tune of 15-7. A fortnight ago the Abes won a City League thriller from Bellarmine 16-13.
