Steve Hokuf, the crackerjack quarterback from Nebraska, who has been laid up with injuries, will be back in the starting backfield. Gail O'Brien, Steve Sinko, Marne Intrieri, Flavio Tosi and Ernie Concannon, who played bangup football when sent into the fray, are almost certain to be promoted to the first team line...
