Stars Of Championship Team Not to
Return to School.
Special to Times Republican.
Grinnell, Sept 22.--The Grinnell
football season opened in earnest last
night with tine arrival of small squad
OF players and Coach r. T. Tollefson,
former University of Minnesota star
and terminate of the late Coach Nc
Almon.
The absolute uncertainty Of the re-
turn of Captain Augustine, as we'll as
the actual loss of three Of last sea-
sons veterans, Watt, Osgood, and
Worth, has put big crimp IN the
hopes OF the Scarlet team for another
conference championship The first
two men have enlisted in the national
service, while Worth has already en-
tered Iowa. A number Of last years
freshman team will also fail to return.
1t Is rumored that Parker will be
back In the fold next week after a
years absence on the Mexican border,
but scholastic difficulties may prevent
his eligibility. His addition to the team
would solve one of Coach Tollefson's
knottiest problems, occasloned by the
loss Of Watt In the baclsfield.
Several Of the men who are work
ing their way thru college may be un-
able to return, owing to the scarcity
of work to be found in Grinnell and the
indifference on the part OF some Of the
business men to furnish employment.
1t is hoped. however, that arrangements
can be made this week to hold the men
in college.
The schedule this fall differs consld-
erably from that of last season, sew
eral OF the usual games having been
dropped. and Des Moines ana Upper
Iowa being added to the list. Nov. 10
and II are still open, but games for
those dates Will undoubtedly be an
nounced in the near future. The sched-
