Wabash, Is; Hanover. 0, was the
score Of the opening game, but it
must be said the splendid fighting
spirit Of the Hanover men in hat
contest stamps this years team as
one Of the best in the history Of the
Ohio River school.
There are brighter prospects for
good athletics at Hanover this year
than ever before. Few colleges have
a more beautiful location than Han
over. II is about eight miles from
Madison to Hanover, and Madison is
the nearest railroad station. Leaving
the old river town of Madison, the
fivver winds its way over the tall
hills in the direction Of Hanover. The
Ohio River and the blue hills of Ken
lucky on the other side are almost
always in view from the road to Han
over. The college is located on high.
lands not far from the liver.
Gym Being Rebuilt
The gymnasium, all too small, is
being remodeled. In fact. it viii be
more than twice the size OF the old
one. The basketball floor will be
ninety feet by forty feet. There will
be shower baths and the gymnasium
will be modern in every way. Located
near the gymnasium is the athletic
field. The field appears to be in good
condition.
At present the Hanover eleven is
composed Of many Of the same
men who played last year.
Gordon Sarber. center. is play
ing his second season on the var
sity. He passes the ball well and
charges hard. Francis Van Meter,
right guard. and George 'Stcdman,
captain and left guard, complete the
. center trio. Then men proved strong
on defense in the Wabash tilt.
Harold Snider, left tackle, played
with Hanover last year. Willard
though, right tackle, is a new man. He
?was at Scottsburg High School last
year. He is an aggressive type of
athlete who. under the coaching OF
Ferguson. should prove TO be one of
she best tackles ever at the Ohio
River college.
, These players are fanked by Mix
Hufford, a new man at Hanover this
season, and Russell Williams, veteran
end of last year. Ralph Feeler, an
ether of last years ends, Is also
playing a wing position.
Reserve Strength
Hanover has some reserve strength
in the line. This was not true in other
years. Joe Gear. big red-haired bas-
ket-baII player from the Bedford High
School, is starting to play guard on
the Hanover College football team.
Gear. when seen in the State cham
pionship high school tourney in In
dianapolis last spring, was regarded
by some critics as the best floor guard
IN the State. He Will no doubt soon
prove to be one of the best line men
Of the squad at Hanover.
Charles Beer, a Versailles high
school basketball star. is trying for
center on the grid team. Glenn Ryan
IS trying for guard. Ryan is from
Salem High School. Cash Kriogh, a
Bluffton High School athlete, is also
trying for guard.
Clarence Van Antwerp, quarter
back, is the man depended on to do the
punting for Coach Ferguson's team.
Van Antwerp is a clever passer. In
The game with Wabash Saturday he
tossed six forward passes which were
completed and only two that were in
completed. Clayton Cox, is sub quar-
teGIbut plays a regular half back po-
sItion. Ralph Powell, famous as a
basketball player, is being worked at
half back. The big blonde is a power
full man and can punt as we'll as hit
the line. Othal Manaugh. who played
end last year at Hanover has been
shifted to left half.
Powerful Full Back
The most powerful offensive player
on the Hanover squad is Eugene
Hough, full back. He is a brother of
Willard Hough, the right guard. Harry
Hensler and Clifford Clever complete
the Hanover back field material. Both
are members Of the 1922 squad.
While Hanover has lost its first
game the players and coach know
that to be able to hold Coach Pete
Vaughan's powerful Wabash team to
a Is to 0 score is quite a feat.
