S — 'M GLAD MAGGIE IS GETTING RID OF THAT BUTLER. IT WILL BE A PLEASURE TO BIG FOOTBALL GAME IS NEXT SATURDAY P. M. Seattle Fans to Witness Huskies and Gophers | in Great Contest i < bty SEATTLE, Sept. 23. — The im- pending Minnesota - Washington game on September 26 has all the interest of a “Rose Bowl” inter- sectional contest. Never before in the Pacific Northwest has the-e been a game of such interest, and around Minneapolis it is reported that enthusiasm is reaching a high- er pitch for this football game than at any time in recent years. It is no secret that Minnesoia would have been invited to play in the Rose Bowl each year of the last three years had it not been against the policy of the school to play post-season games. Hence here is an opportunity to size up the Gopher strength with a team that is admittedly one of the strongest on the Parific Coast—at least a team that can be termed as representative. Team Lineup Let us size up this widely herald- ed team from Minnesota: Under Coach Bernie Bierman a phenomenal record has been made. During the last three seasons not a single defeat has been met. Sev- enteen games have been won con-, secutively and it has been twenty- five contests ago that the Gophers. tasted defeat. How strong will the 1936 team be in comparison to the undefeated aggregation of last year? Five va- cancies loom — at center, guard, | tackle, quarterback, and halfback, but to offset this there are 24 lettermen ready to step in and fight for positions in competition with the best sophomore aggrega- tion Minnesota has had ic many | years. Weak on Ends At ends—a position where Wash- | ington is certainly not strong—Min- nesota will have its starters of last year—Ray King and Dwight Reed. Four other letter winners of almost equal strength await the call to| go in at the extremities. These are Dominic Krezowski, Frank War-| ner, Russ Wile and Ray Amil.‘. Bruce Berryman, letter-winner of | two years ago, will be an outstand- | ing reserve. At tackle the shining star is Co-captain Ed Widseth, named on nearly every All-American team last year. Lou Midler, who alter- | nated with Widseth and Dick Smith last fall, will handle the other posi- tion. Ed Kafka and B. Willis Smith have also won letters at guard positions and will be back. Includ- ed in the new men are such heavy- wpighls as Fritz Grewing, 205 | pounds Robert Hoel, 217; Bob John- son, 195; Marvin LeVoir, 210; El- dred Miller, 235; Howard Parkin- son, 220; and Win Pederson, 210. What an array of brawn there is| here! ! Quarterback—Wilkinson Charles “Bud” Wilkinson, named all-conference and other honor positions at guard, will this year be | shifted to quarterback. In his place will be Bob Weld, 195 pounds, who started many of the games last year and saw plenty of action. Frank Barle, Merle Larson and Sam Riley will be back from last year's line-up. ;i Although two lettermen are back at center, Earl Svendson and Stan Hanson, Coach Bierman looks for a newcomer, John Kulbiaski, well over 6 feet and weighing 200 pounds, to be the outstanding can- didate for this spot. Wilkinson at quarter is tall and exceedingly rangy and has a nat- ural football smartness. His next competitor will be Sam Hunt, 170 pounder, and quarterbacks who will return include Vernal “Babe” Le- Voir, Harvey Ring and Harlan Hurd. | Alfonse Is Halfback Co-captain Julius Alfonse will be back at his old position after an absence of a year. In 1933 and 1934 his ability led Coach Bierman to term him “the best halfback in |last season, The Net Tilt’s Big Upset - IANTS DROP | = YES, you ARE DISCHARGED| Sarah Palfrey Fabyan, who ranked second only to Helen Jacobs, went down in defeat to Dorothy May National Singles Tennis Tourname: Bundy (right) of California at the nt in Forest Hills, N. Y. Miss Fabyan is shown congratulating her conqueror. The match was the biggest upset of the tournament. ed with Matheny at left halfback, the Gophers have the fastest back- {field in the Big Ten. Outstanding Halfbacks Two outstanding halfbacks * will lead the list of candidates on the left side. They are Andy Uram land Clarence “Tuffy” Thompson. Uram carried the ball 187 yards in 11 attempts and scored two touchdowns against Michigan last |year. Thompson scored six touch- downs during the season. Bill Matheny, 160 pounder and excep- tionally fast, was the high scorer during the spring practice sessions. aspirants who scouts report. 1 Whitman Rork, alternate to Beise looks like the most logical man for the fullback posi- tion. When he is not playing, Jack look' good, |Jooney and Victor Spadaccini are the likely substitutes. With such a prospect list, Min- nesota is said to have better pros- pects than even during the last three record-breaking years. Fans at Seattle on September 26 will certainly see one of the country's greatest grid teams in action. PAY PRISONERS " FOR ROAD WORK | ANKARA, Tiftkey, Sept. 23.— Iron-fisted Dictator Kamal Ata- turk, the “Grey Eagle of Turkey,” believes in hard work—with pay— for his country’s convicts. employment of 6,000 convicts, work- Ing in twenty gangs of 300 each, on a $1650,000 engineering feat which will transform lofty Ankara into a seaport.

No damage -was done. The America who neither kicks nor passes.” He showed up exception- ally well in the Spring turnout. Alternating with Alfonse at right halfback is Rudy Gmitro, called the pony halfback. He weighs but 155 pounds and is elusive and hard to bring down. Last season he aver- aged 1507 yards per attempt in his eight ball earrying trips. Team- house is now occupied by the David Weod, Jr, family.
