There are no tried and tiue men to buck up against Min- nesota on next Saturday. The only letterman in this position will be Dick Johnson, a junior, who h: sholwn considerable improvement. But it is in the sophomores that most of the hope lies. One hundred enty-two pound Frank Peters is the most likely prospect and unless he is displaced within the next few days is the most logical man to start the Gopher game. Four other prospects loom for the extremity positions: Carl Matronic and Hen- ry Wise, both from Seattle, Bud Douglas of Enumclaw, Wash., and Coburn Grabenhorst of Salem, Ore.
