Football Candidates
Open Drills Tomorrow
Ado. Area Colleges

Football candidates at Mary
land, George Washington and
Howard turn out tomorrow
morning along with college play
ers from all sections of the coun-
try to get in the first ticks of
their fall practice sessions.
In the case of Maryland and
George Washington, particular
ly. the practice pace will be a
stiff one right from the start.
Both have less than three weeks
to get ready for their opening
games September Is, the Ter
rapins at Kentucky and the CO.
lonials at Wake Forest.
Both coaches, Jim Tatum at
Maryland and Bo Sherman at
CIV. will be seeking requirements
for graduated linemen. The
Terps particularly will miss ALL
America Stan Jones and his mate
Bob Morgan at tackle, while CIV
has lost the whole center of q
good line anchored around Steve
Korcheck, third-team All-Amer-
lea center.
Two Terp Standouts.
Center appears no problem for
Maryland, where Co-Capt. John
Irvine will operate. A big, raw
boned 215-pounder, Irvine al
ready has proven himself a fine
one-platoon player. Two years
ago, in the days Of two-platoon
football, one of Tatum's big prob
lens would be whether to use
him on offense or defense. AS
an offensive blocker, he clears
big holes for Maryland's backs
either in the line or downfield.
and on defense he is fast, husky
and hard to fool.
Another player already tabled
as star material at College Park
is Fullback Dick Bielski. Here,
too, the Terps have a two-way
player, who is a battering ram
as a plunger and catlike as a
line hacker.
AS George Washington, indica-
tons are that the manpower
shortage Of the last several years
will be eased somewhat. Coach
Sherman at last expects to have
enough players for two full
teams, plus q number of good
spot players. Dick Gasperi, a
guard last year, but tabled as
Korcheck's replacement at CEN
ter, is the only real veteran COM
ing back in the line. But the
team appears well fixed for ex-
perience in the backfield and
at ends.
Freshmen to Help.
Helping a bit at several posi-
tons will be freshmen players,
eligible for varsity football this
fall at CIV under a new South
ern Conference rule.
Among the Is freshmen can
didates is Mike Sommers, fine
halfback at Woodrow Wilson
High two seasons ago, who is
back in action after a hitch in
the Navy.
Among other newcomers who |
may be heard from is Charles !
Williams, a 200-pound halfback
from Fort Belvoir, and Buck |
Claypool, another ex-serviceman
who will be among the quarter /
back candidates. Claypool played I
at Norfolk Naval Air Base.
Claypool, however, will find
several veterans ahead of him
in the battle for quarterback.
Bob Sturm and Skinny Safer, |
both Of whom worked there well
at times last year, are on hand. |
And coming up after laying off |
a year because of an injury
is Arnie Tranen, a Montgomery
Junior College product. Tranen |
is a good punter among other |
things.
Both Maryland and CIV will
stage twice-a-day practice ses-
SionS until school starts, with
the Terps getting under way at
$50 am. and the Colonials at
8 am,

BELTRAsITS STORY

Many nationalties were repre-
sented by early explorers in what
Is now Minnesota. Most of them
were French. Many were English.
One of the most interesting was
an Italian, Giacomo Beltrami. who
left his romantic name upon one
of the larger counties of the state.
Beltrami was born in Italy but,
being suspected of treason, took
leave for France in 1912. He
worked his way to Fort Smelling
in 1928. Indian Agent Taliaferro
described him as imposing in APP
pearance and quick of temper. He
wished to explore for the source
of the Mississippi. Towards that
end he was given letters to various
people and Indian tribes.
This explorer was skillful and
graphic with the pen. He wrote
his own story, always full of ad-
venture beyond belief. He started
his trip towards the big river from
Pembina. He began the journey
with two Chippewas and a half
breed who agreed to carry his bag
gage to the Thief river. He had
sold a horse he did not own and
bought a mule. On the fourth day
out he killed a white bear. The
half breed left with the mule. His
Chippewa companions deserted
him.
From this point on Beltrami had
all sorts of trouble, which he de-
scribed well. He saw the lakes
from which the Father of Waters
rises. He called on the shades of
Marco Polo, Columbus and YES
pucius to celebrate with him and
congratulate themselves that an
other italian had added lustre to
a new world.

THE SEARCH FOR COPPER

A new land Is always hope
full prospect for those who seek
minerals. The seeker-after-gold
came in with the early fur trad
ers. The search was, naturally,
for precious minerals for only
these could be mined and carried
out of a new land so far from
civilization.
No gold, in quantities that could
be profitably mined, has been
found in Minnesota. There have
been two large gold rushes to the
area OF the boundary waters, one
in the 1905 and another thirty
years later.
Iron was discovered early in
the life of the state but the great
ranges were not really known I'M
til after a generation of intensive
search.
Both the Indians and white men
looked for copper and found very
little of it. The nearest copper was
reported at Isle Royale. 1t was
known at the time that the boun-
Diary treaties were made with
Great Britain following the Rev
dictionary War.
The story, which was confirmed
by later actions was that Benja-
min Franklin. a treaty commits
sioner. had learned of the copper
on Isle Royale and desired that
this island be included in the
United States. Thus the line that
came through the middle of the
great lakes to the east was bent
north on Superior to include the
island. This provision complicated
the boundary question for many
years. It was not until 1912 that
the international boundary in the
area later to become Minnesota
was finally settled.
