See Big Drop
in Grid Fans
By HAROLD CLAASSEN

NEW YORK, Sept. 30 - (P)
- Fans working - or march
ing - to beat the Hitler-Mu>-
solini Hirohito combination,
none of whom probably ever
saw football game, are the rea-
sons for the drop in gridiron at
tendance, an Associated Press
survey shows today.
A majority of the larger col
leges opened their schedules last
Saturday with, in some cases, a
terrific falling off in the turnout
of the faithful.
Only 1907 saw Michigan
open its season, the smallest
crowd in IL years. Ohio State
manhandled Fort Knox before
14,555, the smallest rst-game
house since 1888 and only %,
900 sat in on the trimming
Minnesota gave Pittsburgh.
That's total of 63,642.
A year ago on the opening
Saturday, Michigan. Ohio State
and Minnesota participated in a
trio of games that lured 100000
through the gates.

Ask Sportsmen

LANSING, Sept. 30.-(P)-
With the duck hunting season
under way and the upland bird
season due to begin in the Upper
Peninsula tomorrow, Michigan
sportSmen were urged today to
save their shells and contribute
them to the nationwide scrap
metal drive.
Hunters were asked by the
state conservation department
to turn in used shells to their
local hardware stores to be for
warded to the state salvage
committee. Those using shot
guns should cut off the paper
casing and save only the brass
end. ii was said.
The appeal also asked gun
club members to recover shell
castings and ends from their tar
get ranges, pointing out there
should be a large amount of
such metal on practise grounds.
Salvage of used shells may, it
was said. help hunters to con-
tinue their sport next year. It
was pointed out that shell cas-
ings, unquestionably impossible
TO replace, could be reused if
materials for loads" are OBJ
tined.

It's a good bet that Coach Lee

also a stalwart defense man.
BACKFIELD GOOD
Harris entire backfield looks

cinched the quarterback slot,
and Ken Vernier is dubbed for
the regular fullback job. Boo
Angermeyer, a freshman, is al
so shaping up we'll and should
see some service this year spell

The Mountaineers had a
"brother act" at the end posts
last year with Francis and Law

bination will be in action this
year-but at tho tackle posi-
tons.
HAS RESERVE
:! Hart should be we'll enough
set in the backfield if rough 60
ing should dent his slim squad.
Don Martus, Jimmy Lowe, and
Dick Petitpren are all working
hard for regular berths and show
enough stuff so far to guarantee
them some action during the
season, Hart said.
At the pivot post, HITLER,
Moore, and Vincent Petitpren
are working out, with Moore
probably getting the nod for the
opener against st. Francis De-
Sales here Sunday in the league
opener.
The line, generally, will be
\ light, but Hart thinks his scrap
by aggregation will make up in
spirit what they lack in beef.
Charles LaMontie, Jerome lis

looking for the guard berths,

the 90 gridiron victory over

So for once the Michigan

Here's the latest, right from
the lips of coach Fritz Crisler. 1t
involves the broad, scientific

I'm afraid my lads aren't

means nothing. But try and tell
