I, Win the opening OF the high schools
tn the voices of the coaches, calling out
and the season will be well started by
Monday. Central has been practicing
for three days and the other schools
will start the grind Monday.
Thursday afternoon about twenty
candidates responded to the call of
Coach Frank Morse of Central. With
the university game only two, weeks
will be stiff, and the men will be
crowded to the limit. On Thursday
Morse put the squad thru some strenu-
GUS work in starting in line, getting
down under punts and passing, and
work in tackling and carrying the ball
began yesterday.
Central has the most promising bunch
of material in years and bids fair to
turn out team which will be strong
bidder Of the interscholastic champion
ship. Eight f:C' men are back and
will play. They are: Captain Dicken-
son, fullback; Farnham, center; Schroe-
der, left guard; Saxon, left end; Green,
quarterback; Cochran, sub tackle, and
on last years North Side team, is reg
istered at Central and turned out at
the call. He is a strong addition to
the red and blue forces. It is reported
that the captain and fullback of last
years Duluth team is in the school and
| will play. :.
Among the other candidates who have
reported for practice are Cogan, Welch,
| Cobb. Murray. Parker, Nulin, Stone,
Acomb, Shippan, Pattee, Covey, Brown,
Quirk, Stair, Putnam, Bulls, Nesbitt,
Garry.ey and Montgomery.
After practice Thursday, Coach
Morse called his men together and gave
them a straightforward talk about the
| work hnf0rQ Thorn Ho oo11oI &ba;r +
tention to the nearnoss of the universe
| ty game and told them that they must
work if they did not want last year 8
score Of 75-to duplicated. He warned
them especially against falling below
grade in their studies He also an
nounced that suits would be provided
for the players this year, and that in
consequence no one need be deferred
from getting out by the lack Of proper
equipment. Ex-Captain Storer was on
hard to assist in the coaching, and later
! in the season Sig Harris and other old
time Central stars will be on hand to
help round the team into shape.
Burgan at North High.
| DR.. Burgan, better known as Fred
| Burgan, the varsity star, will coach
North Side. There the need of an
early start is not SO pressing as at Cen

| til Monday, to give the men chance
to get well started in their school work.
! Until the squad is called out, it will be
| hard to get a line on the Fremont ave-
nue. players, but there are several of
last year g men back in school, and pre-
sumably in the game. Jack Marks
captain and full back, will be out and
among the others are Henry and Jack
Oswald, King brothers, Smith, Swan

East High Plans. ~
East high was not out this week, but
Captain Jack Broderick called a meet
ing Of the candidates Friday afternoon
and practice will probably begin Mon
day.. Nat Frykman has decided to en-
ter the university and will not be with
the team. Among the old men who
will either turn out in uniform or assist
in the coaching are Merrill, Morrison
I Hughey, Hunter, King, Westbrook, Rol
lins, Starrett, Sukey and Bunnell.
/ Earl Wyman has been engaged tc
coach, and judging from his success Of
4 last year, should turn out strong ag
gregation. There is, however, a posi-
bility that his work at the university
will prevent him from taking charge
and Frykman has been suggested as q
strong substitute.
