Minnesota Coaches
Un cover New M a teria I
MINNEAPOLIS, Apiil 18. Just
when coaches are looking for
young talent to keep up the qual
ity of athletic programs without
interfering with the national
emergency, Dr. George Hauser and
his staff have found a favorable
number of good football players
among the freshmen and sopho
mores coming out for spring prac
tice. Added to about eighty freshmen
are 25 lettermen and 17 reserves
listed on the spring roster. This
year the spring squad lost only
two men to other spring sports
when Jerry Kolander, Slayton;
and Bob Graiziger, St. Paul,
donned baseball uniforms. From
the basketball court, the football
coaches mustered two outstanding
performers at both sports Bernie
Nelson and Dirk Burk.
Five Guards Lost.
Although a disproportionate
number of the 15 lettermen lost
by graduation last fall were
guards, practice sessions so far
reveal that this situalion will be
well taken care of by October.
While Butch, Lev, Gordon
Paschka, Bob Smith, Helge Puke
ma and Howie Straiton are gone
from the guard position. Dr.
Hauser still has John Billman,
Wally Holmstrom, Bob Sandberg,
John Bichanich and some new
hope in Charles Dcllago, Virginia;
Jim Jewett, Minneapolis; and Bill
Hopp, Aberdeen, S. D.
The famous Minnesota line will
be slightly lighter this year due
to the loss of such bulwarks as
Urban Odson and Levy, but, again,
balance and speed describe the
forward combination.
Tailback SDot open.
In the backfield, the present
weak point is the tailback posi
tion. Veteran Herman Frickey is
still nursing a trick knee sustained
last season. Backing him will be
little Bud Higgins, and two new
standouts, Joe Silovich, Eveleth;

Being tested at right half duties
are Gene Bierhaus, Charles Sand
berg, Dave Thomas all, veterans
and two newcomers, Bob Hary
and Dick Luckemeyer, both from
St. Cloud. Backfield Coach Red
Dawson picks Luckemeyer as his
speediest back but he will need
much varsity competition before
rounding out into a topnotch
player.
Daley is back.
Bill Daley will do most of the
fullback work next season and will
probably have helping him Mike
Welch of Minneapolis, Graiziger,
St. Faul; and Bob Kula, a fresh
man from Jackson who already is
working out with the first and
second string squad.
The usual matter of military
service will not seriously affect
the Gopher squad for the present
as many of the first string possi
bilities have enlisted in the navy's
V-7 and will be deferred until they
graduate.
Garnaas may be called.
Bill Garnaas, star quarterback
last year, is the only one who
might be called soon in which case
the Gophers will have a little diffi
culty filling Garnaas' shoes. Bernie
Nelson, hefty center last year, has
been switched to a first-string
quarterback spot, Gar.-.aas moved
over to halfback but will still call
signals.
Stressing the fact that the squad
on the whole will neei plenty of
hard drilling to get into compet
itive shape to defend the national
title, the coaches, however, are
optimistic about the laige turnout
this spring.

KU Relays'
Final Results
Winds and wars these were the
two things which hampered the
19th edition of the Kansas univer
sity relays from producing any
new records.
Due to a high wind, Nebraska's
vaulting hope, Harold Hunt, was
forced to tie with Jack Defield of
Minnesota and Bill Williams of
Wisconsin at 13 feet 5 34 inches
for first place. The wind was just
too much for the vaulters and the
14-2 record was never threatened.
Nebraska scored throughout the
events but due to illness of Red
Littler and the ineligibility of two
distance runners the Huskers were
not in command. The loss of a
great number of the track stars
of the midwest was noticed at the
relay tests.
Bill Smutz and Ralph King fin
ished one-two in the 120 vard high
hurdles, leading all the way.
Sniutz's time was 14 seconds for
the distance.
The Husker's half mile relay
time although winning their heat
failed to do any better than fourth
in comparative times. The event
was won by Missouri. In the sprint
medloy relay, Nebraska was sec
ond to the Oklahoma foursome.
Schleich Takes Second.
Vic Schleich, burly Husker foot
baller, brought home second hon
ors in the shot put while team
mate, Edsel Wibbels could garner
but a fourth spot in the final reck
oning. Aussieker of Missouri won
the event with a put of 49 feet 1
inch.
In the one mile relay the Scar
let team finished third to Okla
homa Aggies and Minnesota while
in the distance medley relay the
Huskers could do no better than
fourth. Oklahoma's Sooners won
this race.
Wibbels scored a third in the
discus with Howard Debus taking
the fourth position in the platter
event. Fitch of Minnesota won the
event
Wibbels was good for a second
in the javelin event in addition.
Only Cook of East Texas State
was ahead of him when the final
measuring was done. That con
cluded the Husker scoring and the
small band of Nebraskans turned
back to the alma "mater to plot
victories in the Drake Relays on
next Friday and Saturday.

Farm House Wins.
The Farm House, runners up of
last year, advanced to the playoffs
by winning over the Beta Sigs 7-2
in the title deciding game of
league 3. Earlier in the week the
Farm House was victor in a 24-4
game over the Theta Xis.
The DU softballers joined the
Betas and Farm House in the
playoffs when they won three con
tests during the week. Bob Saal
field added two more shut outs to
his credit as he led his mates to
victories over the Sin Chis and
Phi Delts by the scores of 11-0 and
7-0 respectively. The other DU
victory was over the Delta Sigs
by the count of 5-4.
Leading league 1 are the Sig
Nus. Pitcher Verne Frost singled
to drive home the winning marker
as the Sig Nus defeated the AGRs
5-4. The other victory was also
by one run as the ATOs fell 7-6.
Stan Maley was the big gun in the
ATO win as he pounded out 3 hits
including a homer.
If the leading Sig N'.s are upset
by the cellar club, the Delts, and
the Phi Psis win over the AGKs,
a tie for the lead between the Sig
Nus and the Phi Psis will resuit.
