MACA[ESTER TO
HAVE GOOD TEAM
Line Is Strong and Kicking
Department Will Alsa Be
Well Cared For

Minneapolis, Mimi, Sept. 26-Grid-
iron prospects at Manchester college
are very bright. At the opening of
the season there was q scarcity of
material, but the squad had gradually
increased in size and for the past week
two full teams have been working
every afternoon. Present indications
are that the line will be as strong as
ever. but that the backf1eld will be
faster and more powerful than last
year. The quarterback position will
not, as had been feared, be the back
field problem, for at present there are
three candidates for that position. and
all of them look promising.
The line from tackle to tackle will
be heavy and strong. Wilson, a vet
eran of last year, is again the strong
est contender for the center of the
line. Captain Holley has been alter
mating between one of the halfs and
guard. Drinks, n of last years
tackles, has been working at tackle
and guard. Schmidt, his running mate
last season. looks like a fixture at the
tackle job on the other side of the
line. Padleford of last years team
has been working at right end. Clark
and Thomas are possibilities for the
other extremity, Both lack experience,
but show promise of rapid develop
ment.
In the backield the new men have
been showing plenty Of speed and all
are experienced. Boyle, the clever
quarter who worked under .Saxton at
st. Thomas last year, is showing class
behind the center. Campbell and Will
inert are also strong contenders for
the quarterback job. The halls are
fast and strong. Welshon has been
working we'll at left. Bronson, a fast
and clever prep, is also making a. close
bid for the job. Thomas and Mccall
lum, who worked at full in several
games last year, are opponents for
the fullback position. Anderson, a
back last season, looks good for his
old job behind the line.
OF the new men who are candi-
dates for the line positions, Holm,
Leuzinger and Clark are the heavy
weights out for tackle jobs. Bengson,
Carlson and Clark are guard posi-
bilities. Swanson, Peterson and
Johnson are also candidates for line
jobs. G%ustafson, a sophomore, is a
strong bidder for honors at center Of
the line, but lacks the weight and ex-
perience.
The 1911 schedule as revised is:
October 7-St. Cloud normal at Mac
alester.
October 14-Macalester at Shattuck.

TIC Grand Forks high school eleven
sooE; the aggressive and held the
&!uuini-Qu!tuatc team to q 4 to 0 score
On Saturday afternoon. when the first
scheduled game Of tho season was
pulled of.
The game opened with the high
school kicking off to the alumni.
O'Reilly got the ball hut was downed
before he had crossed more than two
white lines. The alumni made their
ten yards, taking all three downs to
do 1t. but that was tho one and only
time they made their distance. No in
dlvldual stars shons OH the alumni
eleven, with the possible exception of
Walt %Schlosser. last years player,
who is out for job with the univer-
sity eleven this year.
The high school while they did not
do much In the ground gaining line
were "stonewall' ON the defense and
h ball never got closer than within
forty yards of their goal line. Sew
eral times the high school eleven was
within striking distance of the alumni
goal. one when Gilby fumbled a for
ward pass on the four yard line and
again when the ball was rushed the
distance. Only one feature play was
pulled off. That was a perfect forward
pass from Payne to Hassell to Welsh,
who covered about thirty yards before
being downed.
The high school eleven showed grit
and waded into the line of the alumni
without regard for their persons. From
the display put up, it is expected that
the 1911 team will prove to be a win
ner. The boys will put in more time
this week and expect to give the u.
N. d. team plenty to do when they
meet on Saturday. The lineup.
