a THE BUCKET By John Hijelle ‘Only Three Deep? College football teams which have ‘them only “three deep at every posi- tion” are going to be out of luck when they tackle Minnesota this year, if Sumbers mean anything. ‘The Golden Gophers have just sent Out the list of their football squad, + showing lettermen returning, reserves from last year, promising sophomores and lettermen lost from the 1936 squad. Here's some dope that should in- terest anyone planning to wager on the outcome of Minnesota games: Ends—Four lettermen back; three good reserves; three prom- ising sophomores. Lost—Only Ray Antil, a star last year. Tackles—Five lettermen on hand; two reserves, four sopho- mores. Lost—Ed Widseth, unani- mous All-American in 1936. Guards—Seven lettermen on hand; two reserves, three sopho- mores. Lost—Two reserves from last year who saw only limited ac- tion. Centers—Two lettermen back; three sophomores. Lost—Bud Svendson, regular last year, and Stan Hanson, first string reserve. Quarterbacks—Two lettermen, two reserves, one sophomore. Lost —Bud Wilkinson who started every game in 1936. Halfbacks—Six lettermen, one reserve; nine sophomores. Lost— Julius Alfonse and “Tuffy” Thompson, both stars last year. Fullbacks—Only one letterman back; two reserves, three sopho- mores. Lost—Whitman Rork who started several games last year. Altogether 78 names are listed on this year’s squad. Of this number 27 won letters iast year. That's two teams with five left over. Sixteen are reserves from 1936 and 35 are sopho- ) mores. ‘There may be low moanin’ along the Mississippi when the pigskin’ begins to thud and Coach Bernie Bierman probably will angnunce that he sees little hope but from this distance it looks like Minnesota will have at least @ chance to win a game or two. One of the sophomores, Lloyd Ever- son, weight 165, is from Grafton, N. D. He's the only Flickertail on the squad. Average weight? Well, the squad 5 a whole will average about 10 men to the ton but there are a few smaller fellows, probably billed to serve as spot” or touchdown runners. * * * GAME FOR GOOD SPORTS As a general rule you'll find no bet- ter class of sportsmen than tennis players. Several examples of good Sportsmanship were evidenced in the Bismarck All-City tennis tournament, ae not the least of these was the lowing: H Father Tracy was one of the seeded Players in the tournament, and as |i late afternoon came it worked out t that Father Tracy and Bob Kennedy |, were to meet in the quarter-finals. | Kennedy, realizing that Father Tracy teaches in the St. Mary’s school and it not have time to conveniently the match during the week, sug- f gested that he forfeit the match to Father Tracy. Father Tracy, show- sportsmanshi; accept the forfeit and in- match be played. Re- fact that Kennedy won Monday , there splendid examples of the sportsmanship that are typical H bar. * * * OLD TIMERS SHOW HOW Apparently advancing years meam f nothing to McLean county's old time baseball Savon s ise f aging stars of i a team of \g stars other days, not quite so nimble and man #0 quick in their reactions as they f + were some 15 and 20 years ago back but still nothing to snicker at either, j.@id their best to prove this by thor- ‘oughly trouncing a comparatively § youthful nine in a game at Wilton. ‘The losers laid claim to the title of Old Timers, too, but observers tell us they were juveniles compared to the boys who showed them how America’s Hand game was played back in the s airy preston, junday ld Timers will atte: i}, to duplicate their performance cert i the Washburn Millers in a game at i) Washburn, we learn.

Michigan Seen as Factor in Big 10 Title Chase Again Darkhorse Crew Going Through Rigorous Training Drills; Scrimmage Billed Chicago, Sept. 14—(#)—The Mich- igan Wolverine, which has taken a gridiron cuffing for the past two or three seasons, may start prowling down the Big Ten title trail again this fall. Coach Harry Kipke's crew, already classed as one of the campaign’s “dark horses” now is going through one of the most rigorous training grinds in Michigan history—and if Physical condition has anything to do with early season games, Michi- gan State and Northwestern may have trouble on their hands. ‘The Wolves held a two hour scrim- mage Monday, and it was the first time a Michigan squad has scrim- maged on the third day of the train- ing season, At Purdue, Mal Edward indicated he will build the Boilermaker offense around Cecil Isbell, one of the con- ference’s best backs in 1936. Drills on punting, formation and signal practice occupied Indiana’s aspirants to regular jobs, while Harry Stuhl- drher held a short scrimmage at Wisconsin to test out new formations. A brief scrimmage also was held by Irl Tubbs at Iowa. A lengthy con- tact workout featured Minnesota’s practice with Coach Bernie Bierman driving his players through three hours of hard work. Vic Spadaccini, fullback last season, was calling sig- nals. Coach Lynn Waldorf of Northwest- ern was pleased by Jack Ryan’s pass- sing and had the Milwaukee sopho- more at regular fullback, Coach Bob Zuppke of Illinois liked the punting of Ken Zimmerman in a stiff scrim- mage during which players on two elevens were constantly shifted. Mike Kabealo, expetced to be the key man in Ohio State's attack, scored the first touchdown in the Buck’s initial scrimmage. Chicago’s head coach, Clark Shaughnessy, con- centrated on passing. At Notre Dame, Caoch Elmer Lay- den sent 85 men through morning and afternoon drills, devoting much time to new plays. Schmeling and Farr Rated as Contenders White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., Sept. 14—(P—Germany's Max Schmeling and Tommy Farr of Wales were rated Tuesday by the National Boxing association as the best of the challengers for Joe Louis’ heavy- weight title. Schmeling, who holds a knockout victory over the Brown Bomber, and Farr, defeated in his first title quest two weeks ago, ranked well above Former Champion Jimmy Braddock in the N.B.A.’s official ratings.

TESTS EARL Jones More Optimistic Than Last Year; Line to Aver- age 200 Pounds Los Angeles, Sept. 14.—(?)—Loyal followers of the gridiron fortunes of University of Southern California won't have to wait long this fall to find out if Howard Jones has a foot- ball team, i Last year the Trojan supporters chortled in high glee as the team ran through Oregon State, Oregon and Illi- nois before it pulled up and began to pant for breath, This year the agony—if there is to be any—won’t be delayed. Headman Jones sends his lads against Alonzo Stage’s College of the Pacific in the opener, and then runs smack into the Powerful Washington Huskies. If the Huskies aren’t enough, Ohio State comes to town the next week. What has 8. C. got this year? About one hundred men of which 19 won let- ters in 1936. Chief among the missing are alumni Davie Davis, sparkplug of the offense, and Capt. Gil Kuhn, cen- ter and mainstay of the line. Jones Is Optimistic Jones, picking California, Washing- ton, Stanford and U. C. L. A. much in that order as the teams to beat in the Pacific Coast conference, is more op- timistic at this stage of the season than last year. He won't go as far as many Trojan friends, however, who definitely think 8. C. is destined for greater things. Long an exponent of power plays, Jones believes his front wall, avera: ing around 200 pounds, has more phy- sical strength than last year. This would indicate that Troy will play much the same brand of football as of yore, vague promises of a more wide- open attack notwithstanding. : The Trojan backfield, as presently contemplated, will average around 188 Pounds, maybe less. Chief figure Promises to be Ramblin’ Amby Schindler at quarter, with a durable sophomore, Bill Sangster, likely to win honor at fullback in view of a bum knee owned by the regular man for the job, Angelo Peccianti. | Baseball Standings | OO (By the Associated Press) NATIONAL LEAGUE New York .

That business started Tuesday, and with @ pronounced bang. The Giants, & game and 2 half in front, stacked up in a twin bill.against the Pirates, while the Cubs jumped into an 11-game home stand with two against the Bees, Manager Bill Terry has his pitching staff in satisfactory shape for this final swing through the west. Carl Hubbell and Al Smith, two of his three southpaws, were ready for Tuesday's calls, with Hal Schumacher, whose sudden recovery of control has been such a big help, Cliff Melton, the first year man who's an all-year sen- sation, and Harry Gumbert in line for future starting assignments. Infield Worries Terry Right now it’s his infield that’s Memphis Bill’s big headache. Hardly as steadfast as the rock-bound coast of Maine, it’s shown definite gaps at the seams recently, notably around first base.
