NORMAL SCHOOL FOOTBALL
OUTLOOK

Otto Eggerrecht will be on hand in
a day or so and promises to have a
bunch of "invicibles" to hold the pace
set by Henry Schutte's braves of last
year.
Among the new men who will crowd
last years veterans for place on the
team are: Robert Cudd, the renowned
center of 1912 championship team;
Web Smith, the River Falls high
school quarterback of three years
ago, famed for clever headwork in di-
recting his plays; Ed Rock, the stone
wall and ground gamer for the local
high school team last season; John
Vezina, famous all-around athlete
for the Ellsworth high; the Ferguson
twins of Concord, Montana, one weigh
ing 100 and the other 1907, who look
so much alike their most intimate
friends don't know one from the other;
Young Proper, famed in New Rich
mond high school athletics. And
there are many Others whose names
have not as yet ben handed III. The
outlook appears bright for a rcpeti-
ton of last years circuit and state
championships.
