State College Mentors Have Many Holes to Fill for 1929 Grid Season

Butler Appears Least Hurt by Graduations; Recruits and Reserves to Get Places on Other Major Elevens; Campaign Promises Thrills. BY VERN BOXELL. With the sun still turning in near-record performances, many icemen, construction gangmen and life guards, obscure at present, are preparing to resume the roles they dropped last November as Indiana’s collegiate football heroes. Some of the stellar performers in various state schools last season will be missed, but on the whole the 1929 activities give promise of equaling or surpassing last year’s interest and thrills. Among the major schools, Butler appears to have passed the diplo-ma-granting stage this spring with, the least worry. Indiana, Notre Dame, Purdue, Wabash and De Pauw suffered rather severe losses via the sheepskin route, but all possessed underclassmen and freshmen who promise to handle the vacant positions.

At Lafayette, where Jimmy Phelan makes football stars from potential engineers and farmers, one of the strongest back field combinations in the Big Ten looms. Ralph (Pest) Welch, the Texas terror, is being groomed for his final and greatest season. In fact, the big boy from the Panhandle went so far as to be bride-groomed this summer while ironing out some scholastic difficulties at the Orange and Black school. Has Stout Mates Eb Caraway, another Texan, and Glenn Harmeson, Indianapolis, will aid Welch in providing the Boilermakers’ offensive punch. Then there is the promising sophomore back, Hal Chasey, and Swartz, another comer. Phelan has the sophomore line which he used in some of the 1928 games intact, and it is quite generally known ‘hat the Purdue mentor had a better than average freshman squad last season. His hardest task, apparently, is to replace Captain Olsen, stellar center, and R. A. Chubb of Michigan City and Lewis Miller, Marion, are sophomore contenders for the post. Eleven letter men are available. Pat Page faces a different problem down at Indiana, where it is the back field that needs the most attention. Pat lost his mainstay, Chuck Bennett, all-Western half back, and the Hoosier mentor has no little worry in trying to find ba:l carriers to replace him. Paul Harrell is another offensive ace who will be absent. Ball carrying duties probably will fall to George Ross and Frank Fauce. Ross bids well to steal part of Welch’s glory as the leading Hoosier pastimer. Balay, Magnabosco, Brubaker, and Todd are other available veterans. Help From Freshies Hughes of Gary should do the Hoosiers some good this fall with his plunging, kicking and passing from full back. Incidentally, Pat had a couple of freshman backs working last fall who looked better than fair In the line, the Crimson have three good tackles in Unger. Shields and Jasper, and two three-year men on the wings. McCracken and Catterton. Ringwalt, the veteran guard, probably will replace Randolph, lost by graduation, at center. All told, about nineteen letter men will be back battling for berths against a squad from the just-average freshman team of last season. New Faces at N. D. Despite Rockne’s usual pre-sea-son silence, Irish followers are expecting an unusually strong combination with many new faces. If the threatened change in attack style materializes, they are anticipating an even better eleven than the one of last season. As in former seasons, the Rambling Irish will be just that, with a light, fast team, banking their offenses on spectacular passing attacks. “Rock” will miss Christy Flanagan, his fleet all-America half back, and Chevigny, Niemic and Collins in his back field. Garriedo, according to “inside” Notre Dame fans, will rank as the best Irish field general since Stuhldreher. Gebert is his closest competitor, and also Is clever. Mullins, Savoldi, Kaplan, Schwartz, Koken. Grenin. O'Connor, Shay and Jack Elder, Notre Dame’s famous dash star, will do the ground-gaining duties for Rockne. Moynihan at Center Notre Dame's line promises to be a difficult one to get through or around, with O'Brien, Vezie, Murphy and Conley at ends, Towery and Donoghue. veterans, at tackles, and Cannon and Law, two-year men, at guards. At the pivot position will be Big Tim Moynihan. who was injured in the Southern California game last season. Moynihan is strong on both offense and defense. Coach Potsy Clark is optimistic about the 1929 season at Butler, his greatest worry being relieved when he decided to shift Cavosie and Royse. regular half backs last season. to end. Clark believes his 1929 machine will be 25 per cent stronger than last season. In making the back field shift, Potsy believes his wings will be well fortified without weakening the attack. Kenneth Booz and Robert Jarrett, sophomores, probably will fill the vacated half back berths, with Captain Hosier and Curly Hinchman in the other offensive posts. In the line, the Bulldogs have four veterans who played last season, including Walsh and Schopf at' tackles, McCarthy and Glunt, guards, and Jimmy Puett, center. Thirteen junior letter men are expected to report for practice soon. Wabash Night Games Wabash college's outlook, figuratively speaking, is dark, but literally not so bad. The Cavemen are planning four night games this ; fall. Alexander, Caile and Blackmore are veteran linemen on whom Coach Pete Vaughan is depending, with one of the wings protected by ! Wood, a veteran. Weist and Matthews are letter men who will report for back field duty. Vaughan has eleven from the varsity last year, and is relying on the good freshman crew of last season for additional strength. With a quartet of back field letter men back. Coach W. L. Hughes of De Pauw will devote most of his time replacing the Tigers’ depleted forward wall. Blake. Van Riper, j Cassidy and Hogan are expected to fill the Tigers ball-carrying roles. End positions probably will be cared for by three veterans. But the re- *

maining line posts are open to the reserves and sophomores. Coach Wally Marks faces a similar problem at Indiana State Teachers college, Terre Haute. Three tackles, a guard, center and three backs were taken by graduation this spring. In the back field, Buckner, quarter back, appears to be the best left. Hayes, Crites, Martin, Johnson and Wampler show promise. Captain Gennicks, an end last season, will be moved to tackle for the 1929 campaign. With prospects of fifty candidates reporting. Coach Phil Brown expects a good season at Rose Poly. Graduation eliminated many veterans last season, especially in the back field. Indiana Central college at Indianapolis has better than average prospects. Dave Vance, veteran star tackle, Oscar Smith, fleet half back, Cliff Reese, captain-elect and tackle; Herman Rider and H. Smith and others are expected to report to Coach Harry Good. New Line at Earlham At Earlham college, Richmond, Coach M. O. Ross faces the task of building an almost entirely new line in £j-ont of his veteran backs, Tom Felix, Reynolds and Young. Manchester college, although touched by graduation, is relying on reserves and sophomores to bolster the remaining veterans into a winning combination. At Central Normal, Danville, only two veterans were lost by graduation. Captain Bratton and Hankins, star backs, are to return, as well as a seasoned line Ball Teachers’ college, Muncie, did not fare so well at commencement time, but promises the usual strong team.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 2.—l’m glad to see held the American Legion junior world’s series again this year. I’m very proud of the fact I was one of the first men in baseball to get back of the movement for organized kid leagues, and the success of the movement has pleased me a lot! I always have figured, and always will, that there’s no better game than baseball for tfie average kid. And the sooner cities awaken to that idea and provide adequate places and equipment for the youngsters, the quicker there will be a falling off in crime and juvenile mischief. Talk all you please, the kid on street with nothing to do for amusement, and no one to look after him is subject to temptations that are

mighty hard to resist. And the kid who is kept busy at baseball or some other organized and supervised form of amusement, on the other hand, hasn’t a lot of time to think of mischief, t And that’s where organized junior baseball comes in. It works best in the cities, where it is needed most. Spots where there are thousands of young boys who not only want amusement .but need it. This year junior baseball has been even more successful than last year. Next year it probably will grow larger and better than this year. Perhaps, if everyone gives a hand and helps out within the next ten years, we’ll find suprevised baseball all over the country, with kids everywhere given the chance to play if they desire. And if that ever comes about, I’ve got a hunch American boys will be even better citizens than they are now.
