ln the majority cf cases, the
turns will not be developed to high
points of efficiency. The smaller col
li ge elevens, which meet those of
larger institutions will show better
loam play and organizations, as it
is generally their desire t win these
ccnicsts, or at least hold their op
ponent to low scores. :
Games Are Stepping Stones,
I he names are looked upon as
stepping stones in the development
of the big teams for later and more
important contests. Coaches will try
out every man of promise, and those
who do not play 'in a pleasing man
ner will be relegated to the scrubs
until marked improvement is shown.
The larger college teams will be
fortunate if simple plays and forma
tions are learned by next Saturday,
l'laycrs have not had the time to
. absorb knowledge of advanced tac
tics or learn the fine points of team
work. .They have not yet become
accustomed to each Vthcr's move
ments, and team play will be conspic
uous by its' absence. .

clash of importance, will play Frank

Harvard game was scheduled, Coach
Stiehlrr' has -been making pl-tnsj- He
had the most successful spring prac

uncovered and they probably will be
in the ljneup against the Cvimson. .,
Northwestern, which has the hard
est early season schedule in the west

bv meeting Beloit at Evanston. As
Chicago, Minnesota and Wisconsin
will be met on October 1, 3 and 15,
respectively, Cpach McDevitt has a
task on bis hands to prepare a team
for these three important games. Be
loit may be a harder team :o beat
than generally is expected at Evans

Chicago, which game in the old days
was the most important battle on t'.ie
schedules of. both universities., ; ;

Nimrods Flocking to Wood Lake
For Fall Duck Hunting Plenty
, Birds on Wing This Season
Wood Lake, Neb., Sept. 17.
(special.) According to reports re
ceived the past week there promises
to be the best duck shooting in years
in this vicinity. Thousands of ducks
and shore birds breed here annually
and this year there seems to be an
unusually large number on the van,
ous lakes southwest of here. Mai
lards, teal and pintail arc the most
numerous of the ducks that breed
"The"'6pening of the season always
brings a large number of hunters to
this territory and together with the
local nimrods there will be a regu
lar cannonading the first week, j
The best hunting is always in Oc
tober when the northern flight stops
here on its way to' the southern
lakes and swamps.- At that time one
can get almost every breed' of ducks
that inhabit this continent with the
possible exception of the Hack mal
lard and cinnamon teal.
The large wild rice beds and the
wild celery here prove very - good
feed for the wild fowl and cause
them to linger: here ' until a good
freeze forces them to abandon .these

Strong Competition -.
For Positions on
South Dakota Eleven
' Brookings, S.. D., Sept. 17. (Spe
cial.) That there will be plenty of
real competition for places in both
the' line and backfield of the 1921
stale college, foot ball team is as
sured , by the - announcement that
such well known , high school stars
as Irwin Ryger, ? Wilfred Sundet,
Frank , Welch, Joe Murray, Fred
Murray, Duane CorkUl, Byrorr Foss,
Bob Coffey, Les Hoon, Joe Ander
son: Alvin Thornber and Joe Tunni
cliff will be among the candidates.'-
Ryger and Sundet will be remem
bered as the two backs who car
ried the brunt of the attack for the
Brookings High school . team last
fall. Both are. fast and fairly, shifty
and have had three years' experi
ence in High school ball.. Ryger
was selected on the all-state high
school second team as halfback and
Sundet was on the same team as
fullback. ' . . -
Prospects Not Bright
V At Superior High
.Superior, Neb., 'Sept 17. (Spe
cial.) With one of- the heaviest
schedules Superior. High school ever
faced in foot ball and with the loss
of Enyeart, the chances do not look
as bright as they did. Enyeart, 185
pounds of beef and a tackle, who
nobody questioned when it came to
place him on the team,, was forced
out of the game for the season with
a broken collar bone. He, broke this
bone during signal practice. ;
This leaves hard place to fill on
the team. Although there are sev
eral good men for this position none
are looked on as favorable as En
yeart was. - . ,
Superior goes to Chester Septem
ber 23, for the first game , of the
season and Coach Copenhaver ex
pects to have, the team in tip-top
condition by that time. "

At Midland College
Fremotnt, Neb., Sept.,.17. Special.)-
Foot ball prospectsyfor," Mid

school are very good this year, with
10 last year's - men back to greet
Coach "Bob" Sisty at, Midland and
nearly the- sairuTnuniber to mes the
new high school coach, Cv L. Dow,
formerly" of University ' Place. Both
schools have started their workouts
and daily practice is ;be:ng ;held. by
both Midland and Vtfie high school
eleven. '
Coach Sisty believes - that he has
a winning eleven lined up for the
Nebraska conference this year with
the return of the 10 oldtimers and
the addition of a number of high
school stars. About 35 men turned
out in moleskins Monday afternoon
for the first gathering of Midland
foot ball material and they - look
mighty jood 'to'--Midland rooters.
Horn and Hawk, - both experienced
backfield mep, with honorable men
tion last for, the all-state col
legiate teams, are back, on the grid
iron again this year and faster than
ever. Both men Were responsible for
the majority, of Midland's gains on
the field last year. Redloff, last year's
snappy little quarter, is calling sig
nals again, while Voss and Thomp
son are familiar, figures on the end
positions. ' '" - t, '. . V
1 On the line Coach Sisty is encour
aged with the return of Eric, Lus.
chci, Elliott,. Tiegcler, Kleberg and
Daly, all oldtimers on the initial bar
ricade. "Hop" Adams, star North
Platte High school halfback, with a
refutation-as an unexcelled .open
field runner, is - a member of the
Midland squad and will undoubted
ly be prominent .in college gridiron
circles this -year. Meier of Hooper
High school also comes to Midland
well recommended as a foot ball
hero.'- Coach Sisty is being assisted
in the coaching and grooming of the
eleven by Fred Beil, Tiackfield man

years, and Block, another wearer of
