THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. . TUESDAY, AUGUST 24, 1987 Demon Grid Candidates to Begin Practice Wednesday; Meet St. Mary’s Sept. 24 40 Lettermen on ermen on Squad of 36 | Which Faces 8-Game Sched- ule; Reserves Promising Foiks who broiled in Monday’s heat will find it hard to believe, but fall's crisp fooball days are not far off. Pigskins will fill the air above the field north of the high school be- ginning Wednesday morning as ap- proximately 30 candidates for the 1937 edition of the Bismarck high football team answer Coach Glen Hanna's call to opening practice. Uniforms and equipment were be- ing issued at Hughes fieldhouse all day Tuesday. With the opening game against St. Mary's more than four weeks away, Hanna expects to find time for the experimenting that his squad of “green veterans” and abundant re- serves will need. Nearly every one of 10 lettermen— 4 backs and 6 linemen—most of whom have had only one year's experience, will probably have to fight for their positions with the 26 yearlings from last year. First Game Sept. 24 Though the squad when school starts will number 36, vacation jobs will keep 6 or 7 from practice until then. The St. Mary's contest Sept. 24 will open an 8-game schedule, four and possibly five which will be played on the home field. Oct. 1 the Demons will play Man- dan here; Oct. 8 Valley City here; Oct. 15 Fargo there; Oct. 22 Minot here, (homecoming); Oct. 29 James- town there; Nov. 5 Dickinson there; and Nov. 11 Mandan there. The last Mandan game may be played in Bis- marck. To play this schedule, 2 games less than last year’s “suicide schedule” which wilted the Demons—then un- questionably the lightest and greenest Class A squad in the state—Hanna has an average-sized crew which will be strong in reserve power. Where line strength ran barely two deep in each position last year, this fall some posts may be 3 and 4 deep. Captain Dawson Back Captain Asa Dawson, hard-plung- ing fullback with more than a year’s experience behind him, heads the re~ turning lettermen. Dawson, a star two years ago, was on last year’s team until an ankle injury put him out of action. Other lettermen are Bob Bowman, veteran guard; Al Potter, who played nearly every position in the line last}’, year; Jack Bowers, all-round athlete playing his third year in the Demon backfiled; Harold Smith, light, fleet back; Warren Kraft, who came up from the reserves to play regular end toward the close of the season last year; Bill McDonald, regular center and guard; Harry Rishworth, regular end handicapped by injuries iast year, who has shown up well as a center candidate in spring drill; Charles Murray, elusive triple-threat back; and Bill Koch, husky regular tackle. Hanna's host of promising reserve material includes: Jim Shirek—tackle; Harry Swind- ling — tackle; John Brandenburg, freshman back last year; Billy Dohn —guard who saw some action; Carrol Carlson — lineman; Lieber Glaser — fast frosh back last year; George Westphal — scrappy lineman,, Dick Westphal, George’s brother ani other fighting lineman. Lee Tallest Candidate Ed Lee—end and tackle, tallest man on the squad; Nick Barbie — lookea Down-down-down, the prices of drinks at the Blue Blazer.

Admission, which is to go to help defray a deficit accumulated by the Legion team during the year, will be 25 and 10 cents for each contest. In donkey softball, everybody but the pitcher and catcher must depend on the donkeys for transportation. Fielders must field their positions from the burros’ sturdy little backs, and though batters may bat on foot, ,;they must use donkeys to run the bases.

CUBS OPEN 2-GAME SERIES WITH GIANTS IN NEW YORK good in first appearance at spring practice; Jack McDonald — ineligible last fall, showed class as back in spring practice; Walter Brophy — powerful freshman who played with Teserves as fullback and tackle last year. Jack Fox — tackle; Ernest Paul — halfback and trackle; Vic Sorsdahl, end and back; Walter Hauch—guari Edgar Derrig — big center; Charles Shafer—slippery midget back, fresh- man last year; Philip Hendrickson— promising frosh back last year; James Donaldson—slated for regular guard position last year but injured before season began; John Jordan — also slated for regular duty last fall but forced to quit football to work. Elmer Roswick—half and full who saw some action with first team; Leonard Kositzky—guard; Ed Hag- garty — powerful back and a good guard prospect; Paul Fredrickson — big line candidate. No Scrimmage at First Rough stuff will await conditioning of the players—drill in fundamentals, *|to the wall, but at least it’s their kicking, passing and other practices being scheduled for the first couple of .| weeks.” Probably no scrimmages will be held until after school opens. The North Dakota State High School league’s athletic accident in- surance will be compulsory among Bismarck high’s grid candidates this year. A premium of 75 cents protects the boy on aécidents received in games, practices. or on road trips. Doctor fees, treatment and X-rays are paid up to a certain amount for each type of injury. Plans still call for Bismarck’s games to be played on Hughes Field, where re-grading of the field is just being completed and installation of a built- in underground sprinkler system is about to get under way. Quick-growing rye planted on the field ‘within the next few days may make a playing surface that can be used within a month. If it does not, the games will be played at the ball park.

The Giants, on the other hand, had three front-line performers on the doubt- ful list—Rowdy Dick Bartell, the Pepper-pot shortstop; Slick Castle- man, who has to pitch in a harness if at all, and Sam Leslie, the slightly slow-footed but slugging first base- man.
