heavy eleven from vermilion.
Last year Illinois won the cham
pionship title. and with many OF the
old men back again this year Il is DIFF

teams can displace them. They have

vacant jobs Chapman was one OF
the greatest guards Of the year and
was chosen on the Ail-American team,
but Watson is showing up we'll In the

Ohio Loses stars.
Ohio will lose many Of her stars
this year among them being Cherry.
an All-American end last year. Coach
Wilce has q number of new men but
as yet none of them has proved to be
of championship caliber. The Ohio
mentor will have to develop a quarter
this year and four new men In the
line will be needed. Illinois should
win from Ohio In their first meeting
Minnesota next to Illinois looks to
be the strongest team In the con.

greatest loss will be the absence OF
Rosenthal at center. The Gophers

Chicago will miss Paul Des Jardien

three games that he pitched here with
the Chicago baseball team, was al.

getting the Midway boys together,
with Russell, back, and Shull, an ALI
Western linenan, in uniform, the Mid
way eleven should finish up well In
the running. Chicago should defeat
Indiana on Saturday.
Indiana will have ChiIds. a Yale
man, and Jim Thorpe, the famous attn.
lete, as coaches. Childs did not show
much last year and the Indiana eleven
finished the season with many defeats.
Thorpe Is a Judge of players and
knows the speed plays much better
than Childs, and the two mentors may
round out some material but It Isl
hardly expected that Indiana will have
any chance for the championship.
Badger Team Weakened.
A number of the. Wisconsin PLAYERS
Will be kept out of the games In the
early season on account OF failure to
keep up with their studies, but Coach
Juneau has a line that looks good with
Capt. Buck and Arlie Mucks back in
harness. The Badgers will lose Bel.

and there are many bear" stories GO

players are able to get into the game
the Badgers should win from Purdue,
out otherwise the Boflermakers may
surprise the Madison eleven.
Purdue has a fast team this year
although flke members of last years |
squad are missing Routh, one of the |
best defensive finemen in the west
last year, is lost, and O'Brien and |
Turner will be out of the game this |
