BUSHNELL REPLACES

Back to the Rudiments. Says
Yost, for His
Squad

ANN ARBOR. Mich, Oct. 29. (spe
cial.)--It took muddy field and
wet ball to demonstrate that Hnebel
has faults which will have to be cor
rected before he can hope for regu-
lar berth on the Wolverine eleven.
Last eyening Yost sent the yeHnester
TO the scrubs. where he viii have
chance to demonstrate whether he X
OF VARSITY ealiber or not. s
All season Yost has been preparing
this fellow for the generals Job. and
ne showed up so we'll that it began
70 look as though he had the other
aspirants for quarterback jobs dis
tanced. Even Hank" Boyle. the high
~ touted quarterback, who used To
set the stands wild with his great
work on the freshman team, couldn't
suppiant him, but he met his Water
loo last Saturday
Heretofore Huebel has never had
to handle the ball when II was wet.
and the result was that be was lost
when the heavy sodden oval was punt
ed In bis direction Two OF three
times he muffed punts which were
only recovered by the quickness OF
some of his teammates, and when he
fumbled the ball in scrimmage and
Castle grabbed Il and raced across
the field for a touchdown, Yost lost
patience and yanked him out OF the
game and relegated him TO the scrubs.
bushnell, who replaced him on Sat
urday, ran the team yesterday, and
Hughitt. who has been used at both
quarter and half. ran the second team.
Tessins who last week was promoted
from the scrubs TO the varsity, re-
placed Torbet at left end. and Carpet
was placed at right. Pontius, who
has played an end position all season,
was sent in al tackle in McHale's
place, and Boyle played Carpets posi-
tion TAT right half
Pontius originally played tackle on
the varsity, and as he is 4 much bet
ter tackle than end. Il was not sur
prising that Yost determined upon
this shift. II has been predicted ever
since he has been having trouble with
the ENDS. but the fact that Barton
was not placed back at end. was some
thing OF a surprise Yost evidently
intends to give Tessin a chance 10
make good, and II he fails, either bar
ton or Torbet will probably be used
there. Paterson, in spite Of his game
leg, was passing the bali at center.
and as there was no scrimmage. ne
got through the practice session In
fine shape. There were no other fur
ther changes In the lineup. and the
team was kept busy until long after
dark.
That Yost intends to have the team
developed In the rudiments OF the
game, was evident from the work yes
terday. The men were divided up
into squads and spent the greater por-
ton OF the time passing the bali.
There was so much fumbling In the
Syracuse game. that Yost felt such
practice was essential. and he kept
the team at IL until II was too dark
10 see the ball
In spite OF the fact that Michigan
was defeated. Saturday. Yost is not
discouraged Prior TO the game he
warned the men against oyerconfi-
dence. but apparently his warnings
! fell upon deaf ears. Now that the
team has been soundly trounced, the
men are anxious TO wipe out the mem
ory Of the defeat by rousing victory.
I and the South Dakota team viii not
have an easy time OF il next Satnr-
day. no matter how strong Il may be.
Yost isn't anticipating an easy VIC
tory over the westerners either. and
/ will put his strongest lineup into the
field
