News
• Head coach Eddie Erdelatz put his team through an unscheduled scrimmage
• The coaching staff moved Ron Sabal from guard to tackle and promoted Don Manoukian to Sabal’s guard spot
• The staff also moved Brad Myers to make room for Jim Varnado (see below) at fullback
Transactions
• The team waived halfbacks Alexander Gardner and Ray Peterson, tackle Willie Boykin, guard Bob Harrison, and defensive back Bob Fails
• Guard Charlie Kaaihue was cut from the team for “disciplinary reasons”
• Though the team would not elaborate, Kaaihue’s dismissal was probably related to his appearance in court yesterday on a disturbing the peace charge

• Varnado was cut recently by the Chargers
• The team invited guard Gil Ane, fresh from the Steelers, to camp for a tryout
Injury Updates
