Tnr , .„, 8»rtB« MP.WS. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER N. U. GRIDDERS START WORKOUT Array of Promi»ing Talent It on Hand Coach Thistlethwaite of Northwestern university is virtually certain of greet- ing at least sixty men at opening of prac- tice on Northwestern field this Saturday. --MostT^tnese^nren-wdh^Je-tnOTe-or-iesj experienced gridiron warriors and Thistlethwaite says that, as Northwest- ern material goes, this fall's group will be somewhat above the average. "I am no believer in winning games before we play them," the coach added. "When I say our material seems to average a little better I am taking into consideration possible injuries. What 1 do mean is that our material should turn out a team slightly better than last year's." Purple Home Games ; | Northwestern hasn't an especially at- tractive home schedule this year. The full list of games follows: October 6, Peloit at Evanston; October 13, In- diana at Indianapolis; October 20, Ui- eago at Chicago; October 27, Greater Jforthwestern Day, Illinois at Cubs park, Chicago; November 3, Minnesota at Minneapolis; November 10, Lake For- est at Evanston; November 17, Purdue at Lafayette; and November 24, Home- Coming, Iowa at Evanston.. . As for material, Coach Thistle- thwaite and Capt. Bill McElwam have been busy the last few weeks rounding up by letter both the men who got their "N's" or who did some playing last ^ear and the last year's freshmen group -tas well. Out of 100 or more candidates Ihe coach and captain think that at least sixty show enough promise to deserve special^ training and attention. Horton Tackle Prospect 4 Two of the Purple's chief problems |will be at center and at ^quarterback. JCarry Horton who played center in stellar fashion last year may be sent into the line at tackle while T. Lowry __oiLlast-year freshman team may be tried in the middle position. Lowry played a strong game at center for the frosh and is expected to do better on the Varsity. If that is so, it will give the Purple a valuable man for tackle position. Henry Penfield who played bne of Jhe tackles in great style for three years has been graduated and will help Maury f Kent coach the freshmen team this fall. It will be difficult, the coach admits, to toll Herinys shoesr^Horton is a strong, ag- gressive player and should fit m wen. 8 On the quarter-back job the .quintet which the coach now has in mind tor special training are MacLennon who starred with the frosh a year ago, Christman, another good man who played regular quarter on the yearlings ; Lauder, a suMialf last year who has made a favorable impression upon the coacn, Martin, a biblical school student taking work in liberal arts, and Graham, a promising half-back last year who may be groomed into thepivotal post if toe shows the stuff. "Out of this group," quoth the coach, ^we ought^to~get tw quarter-backs." Northwestern's student body will not be on the campus in full strength until September 19 or 20 but the athletes there are so loyal and ambitious, the coaches assert, that every man who can possibly reach Evanston on the fifteenth is re- lied upon to be in regalia at 9:30 that morning. Among the old-timers expected on the start of practice are Ralph Coun- tryman, a guard; Otis Hastings, a sub- tackle; Herman Hathaway, who won alj his wrestling scraps in the 158_ pound class last winter, who plays end; Knowles Hollowell, a prospective center; Edward Herman, end, who won his N; Larry Horton, N man who was center; Albert Kelly, an N man who played guard; Guy Davis, N man who played tackle; Ray Lauder, a good half-back; Glenn Magnuson, N man, a husky guard; Capt. McElwain, a player of the first rank; John Scott, tried out last year in a few games at tackle; Sam Taylor, end, if he is eligible, which looks dubious now; Bob Weinecke, an N man, last year at full-back; C. W. Johnson, of the dental school, who did well at end, also an N man; Charlie Kelly, N man, half-back; John Lane, center; Jacob Plirto, a dent, full-back; Clarence Simon, guard; Leslie Van Doren, quarter; Oliver Vinnedge, end; Tom Wolfe, half, an N man, arid Clarence Shearon. medic, N man, an end, Some of last year's freshmen counted on to respond to the starter's bell are Wallace Banner, fast half-back; George Booker,, a colored lad, who starred in Cook County two years ago in hfgh- school circles, whose place is tackle; R. G. Bouscher, pole-vaulter, whose place is at end; William Christman, quarter; John Carpenter, a yearling tackle; Alva Graham, a half-back who may work in at quarter; Gordon Garnett, end; C. C. Johnson, who played full-back; Burton Briggs, a new guard; D. W. Seright, a quarter-back from South Dakota; A. C. Martin, a likely man for quarter; T. Lowry, who weighs 190 ad may go to center; Frank Mathews, a fe^Sfdk*: MacLennon, prospective W^'SS t5k Seidel, end, and three medical student?, Hartlett, a guard, North, a guard, and De Steffano, a full-back. ctnrw John Paver, engineering school student, captain of the N. U. Rimming team may be out this year, and Ralph Bengs- tenf Purple baseball pitcher says ^ »s determined to win a tackle or MM™* job. Thirty or forty other men are just in the offing anxious to tryJhetr metal and the assistant coaches, Maury Kent and Duke Dunne, will work with them.
