Conditioning has been the key word for Dr. Minnegan's forces as they prepare for their formidable foes. The starting eleven is slowly shaping up and should de-velop into a power-packed Tiger machine. Backing up the starting line-up with a capable bench still looms as one of Dr. Minnegan's greater tasks. This knotty point was amplified in a pre-season fray against Howard U., Sept. 19. The Tiger held the former national champs to a single goal in the first half, keeping pace with their speedsters and knotting the score at one-all. The second half proved other-wise as the Tiger's legs weak-ened and his host ventured into his nets five times to carry away a 6-1 win. Dr. Minnegan was pleased with the Tiger's first half per-formance, but still seeks help to bolster the attack. The Tiger comes home to his own den Oct. 1 to host the St. Mary Mounts in a 3 p.m. standoff. DEXTEROUS DANISH DAMSELS show their capacity house.
