Interest in football at Dakota
Wesleyan University is more pro-

changes in the lineup that will add
strength and activity to the eleven.
Coach Hardy had his Zen out Monday
afternoon for their first try-out of
the season, and they handled the
ball and responded to the efforts of
the coach with great vigor. Coach
