THE | BUCKET By Sohn Bijele Most Missouri Slope high schools which played eleven-man football this fall will stick to the regular game again next year, answers to questionaires distri- buted among coaches and players indicate ... There is a question at some schools however .. . As- sumption Abbey players are not agreed upon what they would prefer to play, some of them stating that six-man football will replace the l-man game and | others holding that they will re- : tain the regular type ... Florian Fairbanks, Abbey coach, dcclared his boys will play l1-man foot- ball as long as possible, although lack of returning candidates for the team may force them to take up the smaller game... One Killdeer player stated his be- lief that six-man football is not as tough and rugged as the older type e.. “It takes fast men and in that and @ few other respects is similar to basketball,” said he .. . Coach Bor- gerson of Turtle Leke, putting in his first year as the Trojans’ mentor, stated 11-man football would be con- tinued there “if at all possible”... And M. J. Tobias, Beach tutor, said the decision at Beach depends upon the turnout for football next fall... Only two men from this year's Beach eleven will be lost through gradua- tion . . . Kenneth Smith, Watford City player, wasn’t at all uncertain in his opinion . . . Said Kenneth: “We are going to continue the 11-man game as long as there are 11 men out for football” . . . This also is Ken- neth’s opinion: “I think football is the best sport there is.

At center will be elther Gilbert Olson or Bob Yeasley, while the starting guard combination will be picked from among Harry Rishworth, Al Potter and Warren Kraft.

All of the above mentioned KILLDEER’S DAVID Sande Sizes ’Em Up —__— New York, Dec. 10.—()—The foot- ball wolves, who start howling about this time every year for nice juicy jportions of coaches’ scalps, don’t figure to do much eating this winter. They're enjoying a full meal, at the ‘moment, in Harry Kipke, Michigan's “ex,” but aside from him, and pos- sibly a few others, such as Harry Mehre, who already has resigned at Georgia, the “choice” morsels prob- ably will be few and far between. The general impression around and about seems to be that if the wolves want to howl—well, let ‘em. Take Clark Shaughnessy at Chicago for instance.

Tf any shifts are made, Olson may be moved to forward, where he started against the Saints and at which position he earned his letter last year, and Smith moved back to guard, with Yeasley at center. In line for starting positions with the Imps are Leslie Wilson and Edgar Rose, forwards, Victor Sorsdahl, cen- ter, and Edgar Schultz and either Roger McKinnon or Art Tilsen at guard. Tom Skodje will also get into the lMneup against Hazelton, Coach Irvin Huss said.

At St. Mary’s hopes of a second victory over Linton were boosted with the news that Donald Downey, sharp- shooting forward, would be in shape to play. Downey had not reported for practice three days this week, kept on the sidelines by a blistered foot, - Players who will make the trip to the Emmons county seat are Nickey Schneider and Johnny Entringer, likely starting forwards; Nick Becker, regular center; Dutsky Schneider and Steve Brown, regular guards; and Bob Garske, Frank Gau and Downey, reserves, Budge, Mako Lose to Australian Champs Melbourne, Dec. 10.—(P)—Jack Crawford and Vivian McGrath of Aus- tralia Friday defeated Donald Budge and Gene Mako of the United States, 1-6, 6-3, 6-4, 7-5, in the men’s doubles Heed of the Victorian tennis tourna- ment. re Budge had shoulder trouble which prevented him from serving at a fest pace. ——_— | Fights Last Night | Cr Killdeer back- field star, came in for a good share of plaudits .. . “David was perhaps the outstanding man I saw in action this fall,” wrote Walter Losk, Watford City triple- threat man. “He played as sil lovers of football play—for the fun and sheer joy of hitting some- ‘one and of getting hit”...

Wild With Anger Trend in Lateral Pass Employed Less Than in 1936; Power, De- ception Stressed More i New York, Dec, 10—(P)—Just as 1936 was the season of one major trend in college football, so 1937 was the season of many trends. The annual Associated Press survey, which has as its object the discovery of which way the football winds are blowing, shows they were blowing every which way. There is so little evidence of a nation-wide keynote, such as last year's increased use of the forward pass, that it seems advis- able to list the various trends and the sections in which they were most pro- nounced. 1.—Less forward passing: Observed at Pittsburgh, Carnelge Tech, West Virginia, Cornell, Syracuse, Princeton and Rutgers in the East; notably Ohio State in the Mid-West; Alabama, Louisiana State, Tulane, Auburn, canon bata in the.
