LEADING TEAMS TO BE STRONG Nation’s 1935 Leading Football Teams Loom Strong For 1936 New York. Dec. 17. — (U.R) — Despite loss of many stars by graduation, most of the ton loading football teams of 1935 should be up near the top next year, a United press survey indicated today. Os the teams which sports editors throughout the country rank ed as the ten best this year. Minnesota. Ohio State, and California appear to have enough material to equal or better themselves next year. Greatest losses among the lead era will be at Princeton, Stanford, and Notre Daine but all report < apable reserves available. The teams were ranked as follows: I—-Minnesota. 2—Southern MethodTst. 3—Princeton. 4—Texas Christian. s—Ohio5 —Ohio State. 6— Stanford. 7 —Louisiana State. 8— Notre Dame. 9—California. 10— Pittsburgh. Minnesota, which has gone two years without lasing or tying, loses seven regulars, chief of which are Captain Glenn Siedel, quarterback: Dick Smith, tackle, and Sheldon Hiese. fullback. Five regulars will return plus Julius Alfonse, who was ineligible this year. Around that nucleus Coach Ernie Bierman expects to build another great team. This year he had to fill eight gaps in his 1934 champion- i ship dub. Southern Methodist looks doubt-1 fully to 1936. The Mustangs, who won 12 straight games and meet Stanford in the Rose Bowl next month, lose 16 of 21 lettermen, including several players mentioned on various all-American teams — I Truman Spain, tackle, and Bobby Wilson, back. A few good backs are coming up from the freshman team but until Coach Matty Bell gets a look at his material, the 1936 prospects must be considered doubtful. Princeton loses 17 regulars from the squad, which lost only one game in three years. Chief are Gary Levan and Pepper Constable, backs, and John Weller, guar n the United Press a!!-Amerlca. ever, coach "Fritz" Crisler is many capable reserves plus the pick of a freshman team which won three of five games this year Texas Christian loses all-Araer-ica center Darrel Lester. Jimmy Lawrence, all-conference halfback. George Kline, regular halfback, and four other first-stringers.

Will France Bow to Dictator? — . w a iMfafetfc '4 De la Roque reviews his Croix de Feu I’ \ 4 * "£\ i M M ■X' i \ w ! Jk j U\ _ 1 jf*: ‘1 ■ Premier Laval Will France bow to a dictator? The answer to that question may possibly rest with Robert de la Roque, distinguished war veteran and head of the powerful Croix de Feu, French Fascist organization. Current political unrest in France has made his position an increasingly important one. More than 150,000 veterans have joined his organization which is bitterly opposed to Communistic factions in the French government and equally antagonistic to the right wing which is capitalistic in sympathies. De la Roque was bom in 1886, son of a French general, has 24 years of military service to his credit, and looms as the “strong silent man" in the French' political situation. He may prove the strategic factor in the battle which Premier Pierre J<aval is now waging to prevent political- chaos.

MICHIGAN TEAM MUCH IMPROVED — Wolverines Picked As Contender; lowa Is Inexperienced (Editor’s note: Following is the first of a scries outlining Big Ton basketball prospects). By Wluthrop Lyman (UP. Staff Correspondent) Chicago, ix-c. 17—<U-R> One of| the best Michigan basketball teams in several years is being assembled at Ann Arbor hi preparation for the opening of the Big Ten race. The Wolverines should be a serious title throat and they are certain to be vastly superior to the team which won only wo out of 12 conference games last year. In Earl and John Townsend, brothers from Indianapolis, coach Frank Cappon has two brilliant newcomers to augment his veterans. John is a sophomore. At Technical high school in Indianapolis he was an all-state center, which means lie was plenty good. John is six feet five inches tall and his brother, a transfer from DePauw. is six four. They are being used at the forward posts because John Gee. giant veteran from last year, is available for center. Cappon is well equipped for guards with Capt. Chelso Tamagno, Chicago: Matt Patanelll, Elkhart; Arthur Evans. Flint, and George, Rudness, Negaunee. Mich., back from the 1934 35 aggregation. Pat anelli also is a capable forward. Earl Meyers, a letter winner last season, also is expected to see service at a forward. The team will be one of the largest in the conference. Big Ten opponents will be Indiana. Minnesota. Purdue, Chicago. lowa and Illinois. lowa There is no talk about a champ- ! ionship at lowa, where Coach Rollie Williams is building almost an entirely new team. Only two major letter winners from last season are left, Sid Rosenthal, Chicago, forward, and Capt. John Bakro, for- ; ward. Barko was the fourth high scorer in the conference last year but , his intercollegiate competition will lend Feb. 1. making him available for only half of the campaign. Bush ' Lamb, sopTTomore football star, is being groomed for P.arko's job. The Hawkeyes won six and lost I ' «ix in the conference race last' (year. Their opponents for the com-i | ing season are Illinois, Ohio State,! Purdue, Chicago, Wisconsin and Michigan. Minnesota Coach David MacMillan, start-
