STRONG TEAMS
FOR COLLEGES
Hamline and Manchester Rich in
Material for the Football
Squads.

Hamline, from present prospects, is due to
have the best football team in her history.
HOLSTER will plan the campaign. The new
athletic field of the university and new football
quarters sources of encouragement for the
Hamlinites. The return of old stars and the
certainty of big squad of subs, scrubs and new
men to try for the vacant places makes the
outlook especially promising
Holly Beal, who captained the Hamline team
last year, will again be in authority on the
field. He weighs 160 pounds, is . feet inches
and is accounted fast and heady player.
1t is uncertain yet whether or not Squres,
the North Dakota giant who played right tackle
last year, will be in uniform again. Two of the
three center will not be back. Burton
Bower is in the Globe Business college,
Charles Donnelson graduated last year. Dave
McCauley, right guard, will be in his old place.
Art Mannel, left end, is to be in the lineup
again. Fay Caldwell is playing shortstop on
the Grand Forks team in the Northern league.
He will not return. Chino Ellery doubtless wilt
take the passes from center again this year.
Charles Smith, right halfback, recently sus.
tanned bad skull fracture while playing ball
with the Grand Forks team, and will not
turn. David StOrberg, the 170-pound line-plung-
ing left half, will return for his third year
the Hamline team. He was chosen member
OF the intercollegiate league all-star team He
| should be even better this season. Neither of
the fullbacks, Puts and Packard, will be back.
|. The reserve team of the 'o4 season developed
some good men who are frst-team caliber.
Frank Brown, $50 pounds had never seen fOots
| ball before last fall. He showed up well as
| defensive player in the st. Thomas game. He
i
| line. Rollo Meachum and Roy Ptlling, two light
and inexperienced players developed wonder
| fully during their play with the scrubs. John
| Nicholson, another light man, but very nervy,
probably will be back to work for an end posi-
| ton. 49,
Some likely new are slated for Hamlins
this year. Lee Alexander from the Marshall,
Mimi, high school will be candidate for guard.
The Sandon brothers, high school men from Jack.
| son, will be after jobs at half and end. William
| Rosey from ST. James, who has had four years.
| a
will make try for end quarter. Arthur
Fitch, Tracy high school boy, will be among
| the possibilities for half end. ...
| Manchester s Prospects. =
The outlook at Manchester is bright. All
of last years team with the exception Of three
men will be on hand to start the season. There
is plenty of experienced material to fill the
gaps. The team should average 10 pounds.
| The greatest loss to the team will be Tom
Flynn, who graduated in the spring. He
played quarter five years and of the
best in the league. Clyde Chaplin, speedy half
on last years team is practicing law at Crooks!

ter again. Jim shellman, who played ful1back,
is out the coast. These three men are the
only ones Of last years aggregation who will
not be back.
Those expected back are: John Mcdonald, 1se
pounds, candidate for tackle. He has had the
benefit Of several years experience and is ontt
, all the plays. Bob Wallace, about 145 pounds
halfback, is speedy and has lots Of nerve. Pete
McEwen and Dave McMartin, both guards
: weighing about It's pounds, have played two
years. J. G. Flanagan, for center. has played
two years. Roy Jones is a neryy little end
, Laird Guy and Captain Gordon are both candi
