LACK C OF RESERVES BIG PROBLEM FOR M'MILLIN AT L U. He Also Seeks

High Scoring,

- SR lashy’ Back

Squad of 42 One of Smallest in Conference; Much Expected of Davis.

The following is the first of a series on Indiana college football teams now training for the 1937 gridiron season.

By PHILLIPS J. PECK United Press Staff Correspondent BLOOMINGTON, Ind. Sept. 13.— Facing a stiff Big Ten schedule with one of the smallest squads in the conference, Ccach A. N. (Bo) McMillin today grappled with two serious problems as his Indiana University team prepared for the 1937 football wars. Briefly, the problems confronting the silver-thatched, soft-spoken Southerner as he enters his fourth season” as Indiana’s head football coach, are these:

1. Develop reserve strength. 2. Produce a flashy, scoring halfback. Need for reserve strength becomes evident in comparing Indiana’s squad of 42 candidates with the - turnout at other conference schools, such as Illinois with 86 candidates, Minnesota and Northwestern with 70 each, Iowa with 54, Michigan with 51 and Ohio State with 55.

Huffman Serious Loss

The loss of Vernon Huffman, high-geared triple-threat back, who joins the professional Detroit Lions this fall in the difficult role of successor to Earl (Dutch) ‘Clark, amply explains the second point. © He quarterbacked the Hoosiers to their most successful season in a quarter century last year. Bearing these factors in mind, McMillin—at the most never considered an optimist in issuing preseason predictions—does not wax too eloquent or enthusiastic in discussing his hopes for ine approaching €ason. - As a nucleus for the 1937 squad, Bo has 13 lettermen and 10 reserves, but only five of these were regulars last season. Indiana lost 14 lettermen. The régulars around whom the team will be built probably will be Frank Filchock, who will shift from halfback to quarterback; Capt. R. L. (Jick) Kenderdine, end; James Sirtosky, guard, and George (Sparky) Miller, center. Corby Davis Back @G. L. Fowler, fullback last season, may take over a halfback assignment, as Corby Davis, veteran line plunger who was out of action last year from injuries, is expected again to be cast in the role of starting fullback. The remainder of the backfield is a matter of conjecture. In addition to being short on backfield material, the Hoosiers also will be weak at end and tackle, two vital spots in the McMillin system. Kenderdine is the only returning letterman at end. James Birr, Indianapolis, senior reserve,’is a likely candidate for the other wing posi-

tion along with Frank Petrick,|

Youngstown, O. and John Widaman, Warsaw, junior reserves. ‘Bob Hack, Hammond, sophomore last year, is the only veteran at tackle. Charles McDaniel, U. S. Olympic wrestler, may get the other tackle assignment. Reserves include Bill Stevens, Borger, Tex., and Bob Stevenson, Linton. Opens Against Centre

In addition to Sirtosky, two other

lettermen are available for: the guard position—John (Lefty) Olmstead, Beaver, Pa., and Joe Szabo, Farrell, Pa. Only 10 days of practice remain in which McMillin must whip his squad into shape for its season’s opener against his alma mater, Cenee College, on Sept. 25 at Bloomingon. The remainder of the Sehacule follows:

. 9—Minnesota at Minneapolis,’ . 16—Illinois at Bloomington. . 23—Cincinnati at Cincinpaty, . 30—Nebraska at Linco . 6—Ohio State at BUS. . 13—Iowa at Iowa City. . ~20—Purdue at Bloomington,
