Buck's Men Hold More Practises: Preparing For Rollins
The Hurricanes ended up their! long practice and drill on football , fundamentals last Saturday with a stiff Scrimmage. Coach Buck was out of town and his assistant, Eddie Brett, took charge. Brett gave the men a light signal drill and then sent hik second team against the heavier varsity. Bill Kimbrough and Cliff Courtney were missing from the varsity lineup. Houser filled in as center and Red Franklin was calling signals jn Cliff’s place. Big Boy Catha returned to the varsity at a tackl ■ job. Sutton worked at the other tackle. Solie and Lindstrom s-"m-ed to be the choice for varsity guards. Lyons and Ashman are the j only two ends of varsity calibre.
The line continues to give Buck his chief worry. In the first place it is light for a forward wajl; secondly, the men are offside too often. The new shift play seems to worry the men and ther- ar no capabl" substitutes.
What the line lacks in weight can be made up in fight. Cub Buck never failed to produce a fighting team and that is the hardest thing to beat. The fault of off-side can be overcome but the lack of line reserves can’t. There are some forty m»n out for the team and all of them have been given a fair chance. Some men who look likely candidates are ineligible because of S. I. AA. rulings. Every man in school who is able to report to the coach for practice should do so. A man on the field is worth a dozen on the grandstand. The varsity backfield has shown nlenty of speed and drive. Franklin. Courtney, Wig-nail, Stanton. Bleier, Carbonneau, and Mills look like a track squad Evervoh" has speed. Courtney and Bleier are going better than at any tim» last year and that is saving nlenty. Franklin looks great. Th» Hoosier lad is running in great style. One day he is a halfback, next day a quarter back and other days a fullback.
Austin Mills who returned from school last week from Little Rock Arkansas, is making a strong bid for a halfback job. Mills, a second string back, is the most consistent gainer through the varsity line.
Buck last week shifted Bleier from a fullback to a tackle birth and played Red Franklin at full. What Franklin lacks in weight he makes un in drive. Bleier bolsters up the line a great deal.
Leave it to Cub. Last year he did wonders w ith a green team and h" can do it again with thi« years squad. We don’t think Cub will show us a wond‘*r t»am n»xt Saturday hut he will produce a team that will be good enough to win the "am». That is what counts. Coaeh Buck, we are all behind you and th» Hurricanes.
Johnny McGuire, crack halfback, is still on the shelf with a bad kn»e. Johnny’s knee just won’t stay where it belongs.
Jud Morris, varsity tackle, is on the sid» lines with an infected foot, •'ug will- miss practice for a week or so and it was necessary for him to add a cane to his wardrobe.
All new girls at the' University were guests of Zeta Phi sorority at a tea in room 235 Monday. Goldenrod and white garden flowers, carrying out the sorority-colors, were used about the room.
