Many North Dakota coaches as- sert that teams of calibre equal to those of this year will take the field next fall. Several anticipate even better aggregations, but graduation will take its toll in ev school, and in some it will be a heavy one. Possibly the hardest hit will be the unofficial championship squad at. Grand Forks where graduation will ; tmash the team. Of 17 lettermen | named by Coach Ed Bohnhoff, 11/ have completed their prep school careers. Returning to further the maroon cause in 1935 will be Al Dragge and Gordy Bye. regular ends, and Leo Huard. blocking halfback, along with three reserves, Lloyd Rood, quarter- back, William Richards, tackle, and Les Brown, halfback. Bohnhoff must fill in from tackle to tackle with new men. Graduating; are Brouse, Gordon Rood, Rosenberg, Fischer, Hallen, Feist, Jack West, Syvertson, Ronald Nelson and Fried- man. Hi-Liner Prospects Fair Prospects at Valley City are fair. Coach Rognstad loses seven veterans, but their places will be filled by this year's reserves and second team men. Graduating backfield players are Captain Page Persons, Bernard Dier- mert, Morris Carlson, and William McCosh. The line will be handi- capped by loss of Colin Moore, bulky center, James Sletten and William Shirley. Ten seniors, including the entire regular backfield, played their last game for Devils Lake this season. ‘Their absence will leave Coach Doug Smith with eight remaining letter- men and a potentially powerful all. veteran line for next year. He must build a backfield around one reserve letterman. The graduates are Cap: tain Gi Dennis, William Burck hard, all-state fullback in 1933, Ben- Jamin, Sparks, Evans, Roland Peter- son, backs; and Robert Wood, Wester- holm, Riordan, and Connolly, line- men. Graduation will leave Mandan with ® strong line for the 1935 season but with a weaker backfield, according to Coach L. H. McMahan. It will be a veteran forward wall, but the entire ball carrying crew will be gone. Jamestown will get 10 of its 19 let- termen back next fall with prospects uncertain, Minot’s prospects will be as good as they were at the start of the 1934 Season. All of Coach Glenn Jarrett’s 13 lettermen, except Monnes and Holmes, are seniors. Six Demons Return The next gridiron machine at Bis- marck will be built around six return- ing lettermen, nine monogram men being on the graduation list. Carrying the Demon hopes in 1935 will be Louis Beall, Elfred Elofscn, Evan Lips, captain-elect, Richard Shafer, Lawrence Woodland, Arlen Schultz and a strong contingent cf Teserves and players coming up from the freshmen ranks. ‘Next year's prospects look bright to coaches at Mayville, Fessenden, Sykeston, Ray, Washburn, Marmarth and Mott. The outlook is good at Elgin, Leeds, Crosby, Hillsboro and Kenmare Six of Belfield’s 15 monogram win- ners will be lost. The lettermen’s club named Lester Buckman and John Redmond co-captains for 1935. Only six seniors will be missing when Marmarth’s gridders convene next fall. With eight veterans re- turning. the school is promised a strong eleven in defense of its south- west conference championship, Garrison will take the field with- out the services of seven lettermen. Graduates are Captain Clyde Luck, who scored 77 of the school’s 114 points last season, Jacobs, Golden, Bishop, Heinzen, Kirchen and Zigler. Superintendent John J. Roberts, who coaches Elgin’s gridders, will have 11 of his 17 lettermen back. Washburn and Lecds each lose only four men via the diploma route, the former having 10 returning and Leeds seven. Fessenden will have 11 “very fine” lettermen back next year, says Coach Ernest Kotchian. Three monogram- holders graduating are Weighmuller, Melhouse and Zumpf. Teams Hard Hit Hard pressed for experienced men will be Coach E. 8.

He took a lateral from Paquin, and, with the secondary fooled, ran for a touchdown. The Maroon has often made use of | this play. Reeder Coach Asks More Sportsmanship Reeder, N.

At Minneapolis, the unofficial atti- due, Minnesota and Stan- ford Are Favored By JOCK SUTHERLAND Pittsburgh, Nov. 22.—Heading into the last lap of the 1934 football season, on outstanding intersettional game tops the list on Saturday, Nov. 24. That is the Army-Notre Dame battle in New York. Here is a tough one. {throughout the year has been better than that of the Irish, but the Cadets have not had to face the opposition met by Notre Dame. Layden's team has come along Gradually, and, despite the fact that; Army will be out for revenge, the Cadets are due to lose again. The only other outstanding inter- sectional tilt is that between Kansas and Michigan State at Lawrence, Kan. The Spartans have lost only one game jthis year, and Kansas will offer enough opposition to make it two. In the east, there are a lot of headliners. Syracuse meets Colum- bia and while on the surface Syracuse should be favored, I think Lou Little's Lions will be too well prepared for Vic Hanson's charges. Little is a master at winning a game he sets out to win, and he wants to beat Syracuse. Princeton will meet the best team it has stacked up against all year when it tangles with Dartmouth, but despite the fine strides taken by the Green this season, it is not yet ready to handle the manpower at the disposal of Fritz Crisler. Yale Is Choice In other games, Yale should have a little too much for Harvard, Temple's Owls will have an easy time with Villa- nova, and Colgate will have a breath p in Rutgers. Topping midwest engagements will be the Chicago-Illinois game. If Jay Berwanger can play, this game will be real one, and possibly a Maroon vic- tory. Otherwise, another for Illinois. Purdue will add one more confer- ence victory to its schedule against Indiana. It’s ‘too bad the Boilermak- ers do not meet Minnesota. The Goph- ers would get their first test since mid- season. A Other games should see Ohio State defeating Iowa; Northwestern win a close one from Michigan; Minnesota having little trouble with Wisconsin, and Marquette toppling Detroit. In the far west, Stanford will easily get by the challenge of California; Washington's Huskies ought to have an easy day against Washington State; and U. C. L.

This looks like derson, but Duke can be upset—just like Army was last year when Hunk and his Irish were underdogs. Two other engagements in Dixie should see Georgia marching to vic- tory over Auburn, and Georgia Tech’s Engineers finally winning one ‘against Florida. Southwestern headliners will pit Arkansas against Texas, and I look for Arkansas to drop ‘ack Chevigny’s boys again. Southern Methodist’s aerial troupe will be too much for Baylor. Towa State and Kansas Siate top the games in the Big Six. There will be no closed games played Saturday choice. The other conference game should see Nebraska toppling unfortunate Missouri. Gophers to Swing Axe on Wisconsin Minneapolis, Nov. 22.—(?)—Minne- sota’s football team pointed its long lances at Wisconsin Thursday and, as far as could be seen, there wasn’t a Sir Galahad in the Gopher crowd who will let sentiment interfere with touchdown judgment Saturday. From one standpoint, the battle with the Badgers probably is as good a finisher in the campaign as Bernie Bierman’s bombers, could locate be- cause of a matter of morale and a fighting frame of mind on Minneso- ta’s part. Dopesters favor the Gophers, who leave Thursday night on the last mis- sion of 1934, almost to the point where flattery might get dangerous, but there's an apparently vital factor to counterbalance this, If the Gophers whipped everybody in the land, and Wisconsin were last on the program, the Badgers might ‘be the lowest underdogs of all but the Maroon and Gold outfit still would be swinging an axc Experiences of the last two years with Doc Spears’ teams, trained hard under a fighter’s flame by the aggres- sive former Gopher coach, seem suffi- '.{cient to assure a scrappy feeling for Minnesota. The fact Coach Bierman feels like- wise leads to the idea the departing Gophers will take all the dynamite along with their Thursday night that can be mustered. Bierman remem- "Ubers the 1932 loss to Wisconsin and {the empty Gopher triumph in the snow last year. German women are bleaching their hair to look Nordic.

The proposal for a charity battle between Minnesota and Ohio State, enthusiasm for which is much greater in Ohio than in Minneapolis, was up to the western conference faculty committee on athletics Thursday. However, even the most hopeful of enthusiasts for the proposition saw little chance that the committee would alter its attitude toward post- season affairs and waive the rule lim- iting Big Ten teams to eight games ® season. tude was that Minnesota, if it played @ post-season game, should go to the Rose Bowl. There was little interest ir: @ game against a team already beaten—by Illinois early in the sea- son. But an opportunity to throw its Power against the far-western Rose Bowl choice, likely Stanford, prob- ably would be we'comed. Schools Say Little While the two universities had lit- tle to say on the proposal, the out- Side interests had reached an under- standing. Gov. George White of Ohio, said that Floyd Olson, Minne- sota’s chief executive, had promised ta cooperate in attempting to bring about the game. Vic Donahey, Ohio; senator-elect, had wired President Roosevelt at Warm Springs, Ga., asking him to use his good offices to help make the game a reality. ‘The next move for the sponsors of the plan was to officially bring it to the attention of the faculty commit- tee. To do this, a special meeting of the group would have to be called, or to get the opinions of the 10 members by a telegraphic vote. The latter was said to have been done last year when Michigan was considered as a candidate for a Rose Bowl bid. Meanwhile, Minnesota and the Buckeyes concentrated on plans for getting past Saturday's opponents.

Wisconsin, California and Harvard Hope Against Odds for Grid Upsets Crimson Conceded Best Chance to Win; Psychological Factors May Help \ even money and take your pick so far as Notre Dame and Army are con- cerned on Saturday, but what are the odds against Wisconsin, California or Harvard pulling another football mir- ecle such as Yale’s conquest of Prince- ton last week? Underdogs of the deepest dye are these three as Doc Spears’ Wisconsin Badgers prepare to face Minnesota's thundering herd; California attempts to stop the rush of Stanford's mighty ‘Cardinals, and Harvard, already beat- en four times, casts about for ways end means of halting Yale. Most experts concede the Crimson by far the best chance to score an upset. Strictly speaking, however, it won't be much of a form reversal should Harvard win. The soundness of the usual advice to toss away the torm charts whenever two members of the Big Three get together never was more strikingly illustrated than last Saturday when Princeton,sun- beaten in 15 games, went down before ; Yale's savage defense although the Tigers were 3 tu 1 shots with virtually no takers on the short end at game lime. The same psychological situation which helped Yale last week will be battle with Wisconsin at Madison. Wisconsin, which upset Illinois last week with Pat O'Dea, its almost legendary football hero looking on, had persuaded him to remain and try to make his magic work against Min- nesota. Ohio State was primed for another high-scoring effort against Iowa at Columbus. Cardinal Bosses Reaping Harvest On Player Mart Cubs Get Tex Carlton; ‘Little World Series’ Dispute . Still Unsettled Louisville, Ky., Nov. 22—()—Sam Breadon and Branch Rickey, two city fellows who became baseball's greatest, farmers, are reaping a rich harvest from their second bumper crop of the 1934 season. Their coffers, enriched by the re- ceipts from a seven-game world series, were further swelied by approximately $90,000 by two sales and trades and more dollars were expected to roll their way Thursday as bidding for good ball players speeded up. Chicago's Cubs and Cincinnati's lowly Reds dug deep into their pockets to get Cardinal players. The Cubs Gave approximately $50,000 and Pitch- ers Bud Tinning and Dick Ward to the Cards for Pitcher Tex Carlton; the Reds paid $40,000 for two of the Cards’ most promising farm hands, Third Baseman Lew Riggs of Colum- bus and Outficlder Ival Goodman of Rochester. Although the report persisted that the Cardinals already had been sold to Lew Wentz, millionaire Oklahoma oil man, for one million anda quarter dollars, it still was denied. Campbell Goes to Reds The St. Louis Browns, represented by the sharp Rogers Hornsby, swung a deal whereby the Browns got a bundle of cash, estimated at $20,000, together with Pitcher Bob Weiland and Infielder Johnny Burnett from noe for Outfielder Bruce Camp- The Chicago White Sox also parted with a big bankroll and Pitcher Phil Gallivan and Infielder Billy Sullivan to get Outfielder Vernon (George) ‘Washington from Indianapolis. Outside the player market, the big noise was stirred up by the squabble between the International League and American Association over the resump- tion of the little world series. The two circuits met collectively and individ- ually for hours Wednesday night and decided nothing. The I.

Badger Slim Wisconsin sco:ed one of the season's many stunning upsets last week by eliminating Illinois from the Big Ten championship race but even the Bad- gers’ most enthusiastic supporters can see no real chance of stopping Pug Lund, Stan Kostka and others of that powerful Minnesota combination which has ridden rough-shod over feven successive opponents this fall. Any tendency toward Gopher over- confidence was quickly corrected when the Badgers upset Illinois.
