Increased Number of Schools Play

In Previous Years
START SLATE THIS WEEK

Prospects With Majority of Vets
in Lineup
Reports drifting in from Nebraska
high schools point to an interesting
football season this fall. This in
terest is manifest in tin; fact that
a majority of the coachos -have al
ready lined up thje 1921, schedule of
games and have started grinding
away in preparation for Ifae first
brush with opposing ncgregntions.
The opening game for some of tro
schools is a little less than one week
away. A few of the camps will sally
out for a first brush with the enemy
September 2&. A majority, howovei,
will be content to spend the extra,
week conditioning the men for the
hard grind and will lift the asbestos
September 30. Unless an additional
game is carded, the Lincoln high lid
will be pried loose October 7.
Interest Turns to Football
The remarkably successful season
in Nebraska amateur baseball cir
cles may account in part for the
marked interest in football intartst.
The diamond pastimers out-in-the-rtate
played to bumper crowds the past
season and the caliber of the '..port ex
hibited merited the attendance.
With the baseball season drawing
to a close, sport fans are beginning
to size up the chances for football
and transferring their interest from
the diamond to the gridiron.
Westerners Come to Front
Western high schools are phiii'iln-;
on cutting a nice figure in the race
for the state bunting this fall. Sr.otts
bluff and Alliance have good sized
squads in suit and are making ex
tensive plans for the season,.
F. C. Princefi Alliance coaih, h.i:;
five veterans back in the fold. 'I he
"vets" have spent the summer vcrk
ing in the harvest fields r.nd have

Alliance are as good as usual, ac
cording to the Alliance pilot.
Alliance Looks Gooo

5n Alliance football tous, will cap
tain the team. Daily, Fowler, Joder

Coach Raymond Johnson's Scotts
bluff aggregation also looks like one
of the strong western teams. John-
A big asset to the Scottsbluff team
will bo the presence of Ballah, sL-r
Cambridge performer. .Balhili was
one of the leading halfbacks in the
state last fall and looks even better
in the practice sessions this fall, ac
cording to reports from the western
section.
Captain Wisner, Chrisman, Cox,
Roland, Pickett, Dormann, Kelly, Har
rison, Neff and "Scofleld are included
in the list of veterans. Charles Dor

last or September.
Jumping from west to the eastern
section there aro re more teams
in this division that will bear watch
ing. Albion spent an erratic season last
fall, but with a year's expci f-w e
should be a comer this fall.

ter men back, with a host of new
material in siht.

perienced players back in the Albion
lineup. Ross, fullback; Bellows, guard,
and Weitzel, center, are the other let

squad. The 1921 schedule is pro
nounced the heaviest in the history
of Albion grid circles.

for Kimball last season, will coach
at Ashland this year. The Ashland
camp lost but three men by radu
ation. Captain Ed Gay, Johnson,
Lewis, Campbell, Molzen, Miller, Al
my, Hoffman, Richards, Chapman is
the way the veteran imeup reads.
Molzen is an 18-year-old lad who
tips the beam close to thie 200 mark
and is fairly fast. .
Almy and Chapman neld down half
back positions last year and with ex
perience and weiht, wilt make a valu
able pair. . Some excellent material
is listed anion the second striners of
last season and the new men report
ing this fall.

four of these in the Missouri Valley

In the backfield, which early In the

Davis, whose toe won the Nebraska
game at Lincoln three years ago, and
who has starred for two seasons In the

yesterday that he would be back. This
