FIRST TRYOUT

BY Z&VXirO CHAYIEN. Term Carolan. the new football mentor or the Hammond tram now-, has hid four difficult days in which to study the materia! which without a doubt will bring to Hammond the professional championship and Tenn cheerfully concedes that tt better stjuad cannot hp found. Four of the regular players did not report at last night's practice, but twenty beefy grid men turned ou'.. and they showed mid-seison form. The new men on the team know- well that Hammond has pained much prestige in past years and every one !s out to achieve a record that local fandom will be proud of. Due to the fact that Halas. Parret. Elsler and Howard were among the absent ones, there was no scrimmage, but the beefy candidates were. Riven signal practice with the backfleld men doing most of the work. In King. Ilriokly and Meyers, the team has a wonderful trio in open field running The passing game was not in action but Overhagh and Hess are well known for their Ions shots and can bo depended on to deliver at all times. The punting will be left to Brickly and King, both stars are in great shape so that the kicking end of the game Is well In hand. Pashmalyon. instead of rounding into form at the right end position, was sent to the left with Hosdet. the famous Oak Park artist on the right corner. The switch which was made by Coach Carolan was a dandy, the rair showing that they can break up any Interference. Whitloek and Falcon are two brainy tackles, their work Indicating that they know the grid game from every angle. Keefe, who was a stone wall for Tine Village, has a partner equally as good In Sellger. the guard positions being In shape for any attack. At center Rydzewskl showed that he still possesses the same knowledge which made him one of the greatest football players that Notre Dam ever turned out. Rydzewskl's work last night was perfect In handling the ball and the hundreds who were out to see the eleven in practice admitted that Blocker had nothing on the South Chicago idol. With such a wealth of material it Is hard to figure how Hammor.d will lose a game, and a few more practice sessions will put the team in shape for its first clash, which will probably

be against Racine. Owner Parduhn is

now dickering with the Wisconsin team, but so far has had no word from John Wagner's town.

Hammond will not play their games

at the old White Sox park, as was given;

'out in last nights Times, but instead I Parduhn has been given Comiskey Park, j I the field being in readiness as soon us

the White Sox win the world's series. ,

Sunday morning at ten the team will again be out for practice and the fans will no doubt flock to the park to see some great puting and open field work.

TAGGING ALL THE BASES By JACK VEIOCK I. N. S. Sports Editor
