FIRST TEAM HARD
FOR TERP S0PHS
Wolfe, a Guard, Rates Best
Chance to Crash Tough
Lineup of Vets.

1t is going to be mighty tough for a
sophomore to break into the Univer-
sity of Maryland foot ball lineup this
Fall.
This was forecast before the squad
gathered at College Park and it was
confirmed after a week of practice,
mainly indoors in Ritchie Coliseum.
Starting at "a, the squad grew to
4o-odd during the opening week.
Bill Wolfe, sophomore guard, ap-
pears to be the newcomer to the
varsity who has the best chance of
breaking into the first eleven, and he
must beat out Al Farrell, senior
who Won his letter in 1888 and just
missed repeating last season.
Mike Surgent, an end: Frank d.
Armey, a full back converted into q
center: Bob Walton, another pivot
man, and Fred Thomas, Waverly
Wheeler and Bill Bryant, wingbacks
are other sophs who may deliver tc
the extent of being high-claSS reserves
in their first varsity season.
Lacking in Experience.
HOWEVER, Thomas, Wheeler and
Walton never played high school
foot ball, and Surgent had only one
season in the game as scholastic
performer.
But it Is the seniors and juniors who
will carry the burden for the OLD
Liners, with tentative first team
shaping up something like this:
Louis Ennis, Vic Willis and Bernie
Buscher, ends; John Kirkland, Brooks
Bradley. Carl Stalfort and Charlie
Callahan. tackles; Ed Minion, Farrell
and Wolfe, guards; Bill Andorka, cen
ter: Charlie Ell.nger and Coleman
Headley, quarter; Bill Guckeyson anc
Buddy Jaeger, left halfbacks; George
Sachs and Jack Stonebraker. right
halfbacks, and john Gormley and
Ed DAILY, fullbackS.
All were letter men last Fall, except
Farrell and Wolfe Buscher. Stalfort,
Callahan, Minion, Farrell, Yaeger and
Ennis are seniors, and all the others
are juniors, excepting Wolfe.
Ed Fletcher and Charlie Zulick
Junior guards, also should see much
action.
1t is highly essential that a couple
of the soph wingbacks come through
for Maryland to be in a position to
combat its tough 10-game card.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
A NNAPOLIS, Md, September Y.
~ Naval Academy foot ball, on
~ the third day Of its practice
4 n this season, took another big
forward step when Head Coach Tom
Hamilton gave the orders for a stiff
semi-scrimmage during the afternoon
session, the second of the day.
The squad was divided into five
groups, each under its coaches, Ham
ilton directing the practice of the de-
tachment which contained most of
the first-string prospects, such as Capt.
Robert Shaw at center, and Dick Pratt
and Tommy King, the veterans Of the
backfleld.
The whole gamut Of foot ball was
carried through, including carrying
formations, passing and defense
against passes and getting down under
punts. and considerable advance was
indicated considering the early period
Of the practice season.
The first casualty Of the season was
that Of Bill Bringle, an end prospect,
who wrenched the old knee that gave
him trouble last year. 1t Is thought
that he will not be kept out Of the
game long.
Practice was attended by several
happenings not on the program, and
proved particularly rough on the
Medical Corps. First, CorpSman
Beverly Boyd was hit In the back of
the neck by a place kicked ball and
knocked to his knees. Later Doc
Snyder. veteran trainer, was hit on
the side Of the head and somewhat
daZed.
Also, just of the seawan at the edge
of the field, motor boat caught fire
and its crew had to take to the water.

Y 4 pears that Stanford Uni

Guilty in winning a third consecutive
foot ball championship. The Indians
have nine regulars from the 1884
team back in harness and a good
number Of promising sophomores and
reserves. But in its conference cam
paign, Stanford will face more rugged
opposition than in either 1888 or
1894.
Washington, with a complete line
up of veterans and a host of capable
newcomers, will be one of the tough
est teams on the Coast to beat.
Particularly for Stanford, since the
Indians play the HuSkies in Seattle
and never are at their best on the
Reports from Los Angeles are that
Bill Spaulding has a great crew COM
ing up at U. c. L. A. and may make
it tough for every opponent. Cali
fornia had one of the best fresh
man teams in its history last year,
and Stub Allison, the Bears new
coach, may turn out winner. Wash
ington State promises I'd be very good
and Southern California will be great
ly improved over last year. Stan
ford may win, but it will face a
harder campaign than last year, when
California was the only conference
foe even to press the Cardinals.

~ LACKSBURG, Va, September
- 7.-Virginia Tech will dress
its foot ball squad this Fall
- in the traditional maroon
of 40 years ago, but thereT be Moth
ing old-fashioned about the attack.
Apparently they meant it when
Techs alumni coaches, Henry Redd,
Monk Younger and Tex Tilson, prom
ised a more versatile, trickier attack.
The Tech lads are doing things that
Gobbler gridmen never did before.
The running attack still Is the chief
stock in trade. But there'll be lots
of trappings to trip the unwary.
Dckerson Great Kicker.
RIG Herman CFoots) Dickerson, full
back, looms as the pride of an
untried backf1eld that should be fast
and smart enough for good ball
toting and capable defense.
George Sodaro, stocky 175-pounder,
is working well at quarterback. and
Mel Henry, 180-pound ace up from
an undefeated freshman outfit, is
showing well at halfback. Big things
are expected Of Wilson Brown, who
will replace Techs great blocking
back, George Smith.
The backs will have stout line in
front of them. Line Coach Tex Til
son can show a pair Of 200-pound
tackle combinations and another
quartet of 200 Founders at guard.
Mac Banks and Ben Dodge are re-
turning at tackle and Leo Vecellio
and Davis Robson are big boys
stepping up. Graduation took three
veteran guards, but Bud Ingles, Joe
Barnett and Bill Bradshaw are big,
promising candidates.
Pair Of Good Centers.
VETERAN DAVE JONES and Ruff
ner Murray, big sophomore, will
play center. Capt. Louis Fittro and
Buck Reynolds are experienced, pass

Sophomore Get Chances.


HOWARD JONES will give several
sophomores first call on starting
positions, and, if they deliver, the
Trojan will regain some Of his former
power. Much is expected of Glenn
Thompson, a quarterback; Williams,
GaiSford and Bottinger, ends, and
Brosseau, Roberts and Moore, guards.
Material is better than usual at U.
c. L. A. and much Is being said for
Fred Funk, a 215-pound halfback.
who also passes and kicks; Ted Key, a
fullback, and Mike Murphy, a 1885,
pound quarterback. Chuck Cheshire,
the veteran left half, is one of the best
on the Coast With three 2OO-pound
backs in reserve, the UclanS will pack
plenty of power.
The line will be veteran, and, with
more diversified attack, on which
Spaulding worked In Spring practice,
the Little Bears should be well up in
the conference race. Little is expected
from the other conference teams, but
there will be plenty of scrapping
among the first five.
Outside the Pacific Conference, st.
Mary's will be stronger than last year
and slip" Madigan will again have
team averaging more than 200
pounds.
Santa Clara also Is on the upgrade
and San Francisco has grown in foot
ball power to the point where it is o
good match for any rival.

veIop q couple OF hlgh-grade guards
and some worthy substitutes for them,
in the frank opinion of Head Coach
Jack Hagerty. Like many other
coaches, Hagerty believes the guard
position is key spot in any gridiron
machine.
"Mush" Dubofsky, Hoya line coach,
is the chief mourner over the guard
situation. Last year he turned out
two capable guards in Al Cohen and
Joe Kelleher. The progress of Kelleher
was of special mention. Weighing
only 165 he proved to be one of the
most valuable men on the team, both
on offense and defense. Cohen was
q power house on defense.

Paulman Kicks and Passes

STANFORD comes up with q good
- kicker and passer this year, some
thing 1t lacked against Alabama in
the Rose Bowl game last Winter.
The Z. & p. man Is Bill Paulman,
big sophomore who shone In both
specialties as yearling. II Paul
man satisfies Tiny Thornhill with his
generalship and running, Bones"
Hamilton will be moved from right
to left half back and Frank Alustiza
will be shifted from quarter to right
half. With Bobby Grayson at full
back, this combination should give
Stanford its best backfield in many
years, for Hamilton is a grand run
ner, whose abilities were partially re-
stricted when he was at right half
On the line Stanford must replace
Claude Galloway, the giant tackle,
who will not be in school this season.
That is the only line replacement
Thornhill will be obliged to make.
Moscrip and Topping will again guard
the ends and, as a pair, they should
be just about the best of the season
Bob Reynolds will be at left tackle,
with Rouble, Adams and Black to fill
the guard slots. Yves Muller and ALI
Brandin will take care of center and
there is a chance that Brandin may
work his way to a regular. Right
tackle probably will be occupied by
Dale Beedle, captain of the 1893 fresh
men team, who was missing last year.
There are nine other lettermen on
the squad, and when the reserves and
sophomores are counted, Thornhill
will have a team which should be
strong in every position.

Huskies Also Strong.

GREAT as Stanford's backfield will
be, Washington nearly can match
1t in speed and power. The Huskies
will have Elmer Logg, the best punter
on the coast. at quarterback; Cain
and Haines at the halves and Nowog-
roski at fullback. Backing Up that
quartet will be four sophomores-Bond,
WaSkowitz, Rulis and Austin-so jim
my Phelan will have few, If any, wor-
r1es concerning backs. Haines is rat
ed as the best Washington back since
wildcat" Wilson and is a southpaw
passer and kicker. The Huskies will
have great first line. but may be a
bit short on requirements, although
some Of the sophomore forwards
showed great promise in Spring prac-
tice. This may be Jimmy Phelan'S
year.
CALIFORNIA; main loss by graduation
was Arleigh Williams, but, out Of the
sophomore brigade, a capable success
SCR may be recruited. Hampton Pool.
a 200-pound sophomore fullback, has
moved on to West Point, and, since
the youngster also was a sprinter. his
departure takes quite a punch from
the Bears backf1eld. Bob Herw!g
will be the only sophomore starter in
the California line. and at Berkeley
he is rated as one of the greatest CEN
ter prospects ever seen on the Pacific
slope.
