WISCONSIN, SQUAD
WILLSTART WORK
Preliminary Football Practice
Will Begin Within Week
at Madison.

Madison, Wis, Sept. 11.-One week
from yesterday the Wisconsin football
squad will assemble for preliminary
work incident 20 the opening of the
1914 season. 1t was announced that
Lamberton, a regular Princeton var
sity end of last season, has reported
for work at the Badger camp. He
will make a welcome addition to the
team. He is big and strong, and can
be used TO good advantage. He halls
from Winona, Mimi.
Guyon. abe Carlisle star, whom Wal
ter Camp placed on his second All
American team last year, and Parke
H. Davis, honored with a place On his
first All-American, is probably the
most notable addition to the Badger
team this year. He is a halfback.
Both men have played but one year Of
varsity football, and thus are eligible
to two years at Madison.
Arlie Mucks, the Oshkosh giant, is
counted on for great performances on
the varsity, where he will be tried out
at center. Mucks is so ponderous that
the athletic authorities have been COM
PEELED to order football toys and shoes
of an extra large size.
Notre Dame, Ind, Sept. 11.-Coach
Harper had two teams on the field yes
terday afternoon for two hours and
half despite the fact that a drizzling
rain was falling most of the time. Run
ming back punts was the diversion for
half an hour and after that signal prac-
tice. The men stood the lo2g work
out well. Cofall, star of the freshman
back field last year, showed up well
at quarter. "Rupe" Mills, second
baseman, basketball center and end,
has returned to the university He
will be out for end again this fall.
Ann Arbor. Mich, Sept 11-Coach
Fielding H. Yost yesterday registered
the first of his famous lineup switches
when he yanked Captain James Rayns-
ford out of his place at tackle and
put him down at center on the eleven
which he lined up just before the
close of the morning drill. Quail was
brought over from another squad to
take the captains place at tackle,
while Watson displaced Skinner at one
of the guards. Outside of these chang
es the men were sent away in the
same order as ruled Wednesday.
Consistent drill for a big squad of
kickers during both the morning and
afternoon practice sessions brought a
slight relief for the athletes, wearied
by the first two days of unusually
hard grind. The punting of Splawn
Catlett and Hughitt brought forth the
famous Yost grin,efor all three n en-
were booting the ball for long dis
tances.
Last night the first rule quiz OF the
season was held. The bucking ma.
chine made its first appearance on the
practice field early yesterday, but to
the relief of the muscle-sore candi-
dates Yost ordered a postponement of
this type of drill until today.

"Slim" Sallee, the elongated south
paw who puzzles opposing batters for
the Cardinals, is a pretty good batter.
but he is not trying to fatten his bat
ting average.
He hits the ball if he has to, but he
does not hurry going to first, and once
he is there he stays until forced to

When a fan recently yelled to him,
why don't you run?" SalIee replied,
I'm too lazy
Sallee believes in conserving his

He will bat if he has to and will run

Failure of the Augustana synod to

at Augustana college at the annual
meeting last June, has not servedT to
dampen the enthusiasm of the stud
ents for the game. At meeting of
the Augustana Athletic association
Wednesday afternoon resolutions were
passed whereby a second petition will
be presented to the synod at the next
annual meeting.
If reports are true, little opposition
was offered at the synodical meeting.
and the petition failed to carry be-
cause it lacked proper support on the
floor. This will be remedied when the
petition is again presented. Student
representatives will be chosen to pre-
sent the petition in behalf of the stud
ent body, and if they are granted the
floor. it is believed that Augustana will
again have intercollegiate football.
