Anxious to hold their 'jinx" over Colorado Univeristy, whom I thev meet in the A?gies home- , coming game here next Saturday, Utah State's aocRal lsquad has been worikni hsrd for the past 1 week on the offensive side of the game, in order to develoD a I Utile more scoring punch bei ve they meet the Golden Buffaloes. Following a two-hour workou". yesterday, Dick Romney has indicated indi-cated that he will shift T.ill Twhchell, who showed his wares in the San Jose game, to the regular re-gular tailback post. He has nosed out Freddie Bohman and Fred Allen, who is still favonni an in lured knee. This seems to solve the Smilcr's biggest problem, because ever since the first work-cut work-cut he h&s teen trying to Hnd someone who is fasit and nas a good drive to carry the mail. Allen has been aletmating with Twitchell, however, in practice-: ! since Wednesday. Another back-field back-field change is the shifting of Vern Bennion to the blocking back post. Marvin "Dingle" Bell is also nursing an injured leg. While he offensive drive of the Aggies arid the polishing and timing uf plays is holding the major portion of the squads time, Coach Romney is still shifting his players around, in an attempt to find a smooth, hard charging line.
