Persons who will loan or rent a tent to the squad for the week are requested to see or call Coach Marshall as soon as possible. One large tent, suitable for the kltcchen and dining room, is needed. Unless tents are obtained, be necessary for the buys to ren*a cottage at the lake and that would increase their expenses greatly. Coach Marshall stated today that he would like for some one to volunteer to furnish a large touring ear or truck to take a load of tile boys to the lake Monday morning.| August 30. About twenty-five boys have signed up to go to the lake for the son training. They will meet at the city swimming pool next Sunday after ’ noon at 1 c*e!ock to make arrange-; ments for the trip. Suits will be issued before the trip and three hours per I day will be spent in football practice.. Prospects for a fairly strong team this tall are said to he good at present. Coach Marshall will have the to lowing players from last season’s team: Captain Acker. ex-Captain Bebout, Brown. Reynolds. Anders n, Zwick. Bell, Kiess. Lankenau. Koos. Potts, Fuhrman, Devor. Ftisinger and Co-| vault. Among the new players expected to try out for the eleven are: Krick L. Butcher. R. Butcher. Cole, Gerber. Engie, G. Hilyard. V. Hilyard. Anadell.) Somers. Mallonee. Magley. Haubold. Kocher, and Green. Last season’s backfield was left intact after graduation last spring, but the coach will have to fill one end. center, both guards and one tackle positions in the line. Dierkes. star guard for the last two years has gone east and will not be in school this fall. The first game will be with Auburn, at Auburn. September. IS. o Odds 2-1 On Dempsey. New York. Aug. 20.—(United Press) — Betting that Jack Dempsey would retain the championship in his bout with Gene Tunney took many sizeable sums on wall street at 2 to 1 o—- ———■ —- Tiger Flowers Retains Title By Defeating Greb ' ' t —Tiper Flowers is still world’s middleweigbt champion today. He retained the title in taking the; decision over Harry Greb in 15 rounds of rough and tumble fighting in Madison Square Garden last night. The 15,000 fight fans present did not regard the two to one verdict of Judge Mathison Barnes and Judge Crowley’ with favor. Flowers had the best of: seven rounds, Greb won six. and two j were an even break. It was a Greb audience that watched the fight. They came ready for a spectacle of the oldtime Greb fury. They saw plenty of rough stuff, but gallant though it was. Greb’s assault lacked the power of the Greb of other battles. — oTO BUILD GOLF COURSE AT LAKE Improvement Association to Construct Course at Sylvan Lake | . wtt ( * .
