HIGH COACHES
HAVE Troubles
Injuries and Possible Los of Men
Keep the LEADER
Guessing.
BY Gil.

The squad which reported for pctiee At
North Side yesterday was weak In nparisou
with the bunch which has been getty out at
the Fremont avenue grounds. Moose Oswald,
the Kings and La Paine were out of ae game.
Frank King. the big left tackle, hasa severe
case OF blood poisoning, the result Of n injury
to his hand, which threatens to keep him on
the hospital list for some time. His brother,
Alan King, left half, has a bruised b which
means at least week on the sic lines.
Moose Oswald, right tackle. is sufferag with
couple of strained ribs and La Paine end ID
still crippled with knee strain receiyet In the
Fort Smelling game last Friday.
In addition to this, information has hen laid
before the board of control which may lar both
the Kings. The principal of the Redwood Falls
high school has written to Professor Greer OF
Central high that the King boys played Iootball
on the Redwood Falls team for three years
before they came to Minneapolis. As they have
already played one year at North Side they
may be barred from further playing. Professor
Greer said today that he had no intention Of
entering protest in behalf Of Central. but that
as ne was member OF the board of control he
would have to place his information before that
body. He declined to say what the probable
outcome of the boards discussion swoulh be-
ers on the North Side team, and their los would
seriously affect North Sides chances for holding
the championship.
Manager Gaylord has secured fgsame
with the third varsity for Friday afternooa Tie
| game will be played on North Side field am will
| be called at A pm. The contract with East
| Side is concluded, and calls for a game ON
| Nov. 10 at Nicollet park.
South Practice Ragged.
South Side did not show up very well at res
| terday's practice. There were a number OF
| absentees and several of the men reported y9F
practice without suits. Coach Goldblum WIS
detained and did not reach the practice grou1s
! until late in the afternoon. The men practice
punting while waiting for him. and did som
signal work under the direction of Carl VOL
and several other alumni, who were on hand
to watch practice. r
South is still without captain, and the
lack of one is serious handicap to the team
| Fully an hour was wasted yesterday afternoon
because there was no one who had authority to
start practice In the absence of the coach.
The mass meeting at the scbbol yesterday
was very enthusiastic, and the sale Of tickets
| for the Mechanic Arts game has been good.
| Sol Fleigleman elected captain Of rooters
at the mass meeting. and will lead the cheering
Friday.
Central in Scrimmags.
At the Central grounds Coach Aorse lined
| up the first and second teams for one twenty
minute half of real playing. The i.st team

half; Schroeder, fullback. y
The showing made by the boys in thei scrim.

the squad until the weather takes decide turn
for the colder. Green, the fast little carter
is playing the game with a broken nose The
injury was received in Tuesdays practice. Pen

mage this week and has not been out forprac.
tice since Monday. 1t is feared that til in

at first. Central Is still without a gams for
Friday. 80 J.. ~ -.,-s it,. =
Wyman Working Hard.
At East Side Coach Wyman is working les.
perate1y to get his crippled team in some ort
of shape for the Carleton game Saturday. With
Kingsley and both the Sherblooms out of he
game the prospects of the University aveue
tschool are anything but bright for the imle-
n diate future, tho Wymans will be able to bud
Eup a good machine from the material at had
for the later games, N =
At present the members of the team are
nearly all shifted playing with stlnge
teammates, and the play is very loose AMI I'M
, certain. All of yesterdays work was directed
at this weakness and consisted princirall Of
signal practice and formation drill.
