By OTTO BEATTY JR.'
Minor league football has come
to Columbus tn the form of the Columbus Colts. The Colts are a part
of the new United Football league,
which is the same as AAA baseball or one step below the NFL.
Last years Columbus Colts became
the Ohio Colts. This year's outfit
Is almost an entirely different
hall cub. There are two separate
teams tn Ut* city now.
The Columbus Colts sports an
aggregation of players that were
sent down from the pro ranks to
get a little more seasoning In the
ways of pro football. It ts not an
amateur team and has some of
. the best young players In the midwest. The Colts arc a professional
team with professional talent and
will play in a professional league
with game tn Jets stadium.
THE NAME "Coif Is not representative of the size of the ball
carriers and certainly not the
massive lino that the team has
assembled- Coach Gene Fckete has
an array of backfie'd talent to
pick from, both local and imported. The starting left halfback was
a tnssup between Chuck Comer,
the former East High snd Bow-ling
Green star, who was with the
Buffalo Bisons, or I«e*-e Williams
who playd his hall at Ohio State.
To contain the passing attack of
the team* in the league. Fekete
has teamed up Williams with Tec-
'; Hansley, another Ohio Stater, I
to play the deep safety men on
defense. But Williams is the swiftest afoot and will see plenty of offensive action, along with tils punt
returning duties.
At the fullback position will be
Hal Ward, who played at Columbus
South and wenl to California to
play his college ball. He was with
Boston at the start of the season.
Also playing fullback with Ward
will be Dean Porter, the much
talked about Miami star, if Porter plays full time defense then
the offensive job goes to Ward or
Jack Armstrong.
Right half back duties will be
shared by Geno Setts], the Iowa
flash who was injured^in his last
season and former East High
star. Al Jordan. Speaking of East
High School stars. Earl Murray Is
In the back-field, and Aaron {Tufty) Smith ln on the line.
THK OFFENSIVE line looks as
though it should open enough
holes for a wide open running
game to complement tbe pas-ing
arm ot Frank Krembtas.
From tackle it looks like this:
Ernie Spychalski, **«5; Don Young.
_*".* James Nemec, 315: Alvaro
Martin, 318, and Al Crawford, 380.
Alvaro is from Canton and played
with Colorado.
The passing game rides on
Krembtas. because on this team
he has excellent receivers in the
bactrfieid with Comer, Set-si, Purler, Ward, W*Qliarns and Haosle*.,
