rAliK SIA SUNDAY, ZH, RYDER brothers of British cup team. Left to right, Reginald, Ernest and Charles, UUNCH FOOTBALL CAMPAIGN FRIDAY De LaSalle Academy Will Be First Opponent of Tiger Eleven 6EDALIA BACKFIELD REMAINS UNDECIDED Davenport Will Confine Most of Work to Ball Luggers Backfield combinationR will rome fn for close srnitfny in the Smith- Cotton high school football camp, this as Coach Donald Sedalians negotiate the last lap of their preparation grind for the opener against De LaSalle Academy at Kansas City Friday afternoon. As satisfied as he would ever pretend to be with an inexperienced forward wall, Davenport will eon fine most of his efforts this week to the selection of a starting combination in the backfield where cix candidates of about equal talent are vieing for the assignments. And regardless of what ball-tot- tng quartet he finally decides upon Davenport is sure to have Porter Robb, triple threat quarterback in the workhorse role where he will be counted upon to do most of the kicking and passing and no little share of the ball carrying. The most promising ball carriers at this juncture are Eddie Campbell, 140-pound sophomore, and Jack Reuter, a member for two seasons.

Reuter probably holds the edge as the likely starter at left half by virtue of his experience. The contest for the other halfback post is Is between Ernie Norris, A reserve last year, and Jack McAnerney, the No. two punter, with Herschel Sumners also to be considered provided he is not used at fullback In the event Stan Defoe is not fully recovered from A recent illness. The line situation is somewhat clearer with candidates standing out for every position but the end births. Paul Schroeder, reserve center last year, apparently has inherited the pivot position with Hilliard Hudson as No.

one understudy. Clarence Keyte, last captain, and either Joe McEniry or J. W. Stephens provide capable material for starting guards with Fred Dean in reserve. The tackle position turned out to be less a problem than been expected at the start of the practice and Lee Dow, a letterman last year, and Jimmie Dickman, a promising newcomer, appear headed for the regular assignments.

Melvin Turner, a lanky candidate, who may also see some action at end, and Glenn King, 175-pound junior, are the leading replacements. Bob Behen, now nursing an arm injury, but expected to report in shape Monday, heads the list of candidates for end positions with little to choose between Herb Studer, basketball star, Martin Lingle and Walter Martin for the otlier berth. With Defoe and Behen, the only ailing squad members, back in phy- Bical trim, the best bet for a starting combination appears to be: Behen and Sitider, ends: Dickman and Dow, tackles: Keyte and McEniry, guards; Schroeder, center; Robb, quarterback: Sumners and Norris or Campbell or Reuter, halfbacks, and Defoe, fullback. This or most any likely starting group probably will average four or five pounds per man lighter than any starting Smith-Cotton lineup in recent years, mainly because of the light ends and backfielders. Davenport plans no letup in the training practice menu.

The Smith-Cotton plays remain virtually the same as last year with the exception of the addition (M the ppinner whith will come in for frequent use this season. FOOTBALL RESULTS Midwest Wiiliam Tewfll 0, 'hicago 7, Kansas 7, Notre Dame 28. Colorado 0, Oklahoma 3. fi, Iowa State 8, Ohio C. 6.

U. USES FIVE TEAMS, ROUTING JEWELL 39 TO 0 The Sedalia Athletics wTll wind up their 1935 home schedule at Liberty Park at 2:30 this afternoon with the strong Glendale Club of the Kansas City Ban Johnson league furnishing the opposition. The Glendales w'ho are managed by Lee M. Garvin, former well- know'n catcher for the Sedalia Gold- bugs In the old Western Association, are composed of amateurs under 21 years of age and they loom as the strongest combination brought to Sedalia this season.

Garvin wrote Manager Palmer Nichols of the Sedalia club that five members of the Glendale team have been out with the Kansas City Blues this season and are expected to go south w'ith the American Association club next spring. These players are Melling and Baughman, pitchers; Williams, second baseman; Kaufman, outfielder, and Wells, shortstop, all of whom will be with the Glendales here today. Manager Nichols will have his full Athletics squad available for the game today and he plans to start Hert, young er on the mound. Garvin has not announced his pitching selection but he will have five twiriers ready for service. The probable lineups: or 'Wager, 3b; Wells, ss; Williams, 2b; Kaufman, rf; Kratky, If; Comisky, lb; Hare, cf; Richardson or Kolmy, and Baughman, Melling, Vann, Michaelis or Langsford, p.

THE ROSTER of Coach Hunk North Carolina State Wolfpack contains moie charming names than any other of several million received thus far from college publicity writers. All-American candidates at the North Carolina school are Kyneska, Kubisa, Piloseiio, Sabol, Cara, Aca. Kuzma, Kareiva, Weitlauf, Berlinsky, Chiemiego, Futeranski, Simls- calchi, Mastrolia, Moeszinger and Gadd. You almost wonder a coach keeps his cast of characters properly identified in his own mind w'hen they wear such names as these.

Numbers on the backs of uniforms are a great help in such cases. Maybe Hunk keeps in condition during the off season by reading Tolstoy. YALE HAS A GUARD this year named Jolin Harvard Castle yon are familiar, of course, with Bill Shakesiieare of Notre Dame, who i.s expected to be one of Notre briglitest star.s this year, Tom Tomb no longer walks 'neath classic elms, but a quarterback named George Furey, brother of the other two Columbia Fureys, strides there now.

Notre Ramblers, with the dashing Fred Carideo showing the w'ay, opened their bid for re-. newed football prestige today by smashing the University of Kan sas, 28 to 7. The Irish scored twice in the first half and twice in the last period.

Fast-charging Notre Dame linemen ripped apart the Kansas forward wall and opened big holes through w'hich Carideo, Bill Shakespeare and Mike brother of Coach Elmer Layden, darted for consistent gains. Carideo, first cousin of Frank Carideo, Notre famed All- American quarterback, first exciteji the 20,000 spectators with a 15- yard dash around the Kansas right end for a touchdowm. Then, after a second period push from the Kansas 46 to which he contributed a 15-yard squirming drive over center, Carideo punched a hole at guard from the two-yard line. He shared honors, with Wayne Millner, veteran end and acting captain. recovery of Mano fumble on the Kansas 26 yard paved the way for first score, and the rangy wingman hauled in a 47-yard forward pass from Shakespeare in the last quarter for another Notie Dame touchdown, stepping calmly over the goal three yards aw'ay.

qiie fourth Notre Dame toiich- down climaxed a 60-yard drive led by Vic Vojcihovski, tnat cariied to the Kansas two as the third period ended. On the first plav of the final quarter, the Irish forwards opened a hole wide enough for three backs, and the Weston W. back w'as not touched as he stepped across for the touchdown. A third-period safety added to the Notre Dame total, when John Mi- chuta, veteran tackle, blocked Fred attempt to punt from the Kansas three, and the ball bounced over the end zone. Wally Fromhart place-kicked one point after touch- down and Marly Peters booted another.

The Kansas Cyclone blew' itself. out after a single thrust that re- vived the hopes at the start of the second half. The scoring chance was provided by a beauiful 65-yard punt by Harris, ith the ball rolling dead on the Notre Dame two. Andy Pil- punt from behind the goal carried only to the 32, and the I Jayhawkers struck quickly. George; Hapgood, substitute fullback, plunged for tw yards at center, tossed cne wild forward pass, then fired a long one that Wade Green, right end, snatched almost from the hands of two Notre Dame defenders on the five-yard line.

Green twisted across for the score and Tom McCall, left guard, added a place-kick for the point.

Evans, who look a fling at boxing on the west coast about ten years; ago, stepped into the ring and nail-; ed McClary with a right hand punch that sent the Irishman reeling and resulted in the fall and match being awarded to Vincent. The Arkansas grapider, who Is quite the fair haired boy with local mat fans, liad won the first fall, but lost the second to McClary and when the Irishirian assisted him to the ropes; then bounced him on the floor it precipitated a near riot brought Evans into action and end-' ed the show.

ITie remainder of tlie program failed to elicit more than ordinary enthusiasm although Steve Savage, the smiling Detroit star, made his local debut in the semi-final by taking the only fall of a match Avith Pat McGill, rotund Omaha Irishman, who failed to return after the first fall of a scheduled two out of three event.

McGill yielded to a Japanese leg lock applied by Savage Avith such savageness that the Irishman Avas declared unfit to return. McGill limped around tlie hall djring the remainder of the evening appearing far from comfortable.

BAT IS DETROIT EDGE OVER CUB INHELD Infields of World Series Rivals Stack Up Even Except at First (This Is the first of three stories comparing the Avorld series rivals, Detroit and Chicago). BY PAUL MICKELSON Associated Press Sports Writer CHICAGO, Sept.

Hank Greenberg and his home rim bat give the Detroit infield an edge in attack over the sensational Chicago Cubs but from the standpoint of defensive excellence it's a case of future' your eyes and take your pick. Taking man for man in the two sopho-f Avhich have dazzled their 1 resiiective leagues, you give any a wide edge of superiority until you get to Big Hank. Ali tlioiigh a flop at the plate last fall i Avlien the St. Louis pitchers side armed liim into helplessness. Hank rates as the one-man (luestioii mark over the (Til) world series hopes.

Greenberg and 19-year-old Phil Cavarretta, guardians of first base for the series foes, represent striking contrasts. Tlie Detroit star is steady, experienced and brilliant; Cavarretta. ju.st’out of high school, is inexperienced and his judgment, at tames, is shaky. His throwing arm so good, but he can get Avhen the. going is the roughest.

Phil undoubtedly Avill be a great star some day but right now he's far from being a Greenberg, Avho is batting .334 with 36 home runs to .273.

LINCOLN, Sept. Cardwell, a lanky Cornhusker halfback, stole the show in Avhich Jay BerAvanger of the Maroons Avas given the star billing as the University of Nebraska defeated the University of Chicago, 28 to 7.

here today. A record fir.st game football Avatched Henry Bauer take kickoff in the second quarter and paa.s to Cardwell, Avho dashed doAvn the sidelines 86 yards for second touchdown. Berwanger scored the only touch- for the Maroons in the second quarter. long run folloAv- I ed this, and he also scored in the first and third periods. Sam Francis, Nebraska fullback, scored the other touchdown for the Corn- huskers in the last period.

Aside from the one spurt, the Maroons Avere slopped cold. The Chicago touchdown Avas the outgrowth of a Nebraska fumble on its oAvn 23. The Maroons put over a touchdOAvn in just two plays. Nebraska held the edge in most departments of the game, 15 first doAvns to 11 and 243 yards from scrimmage to 199. The Cornhuskcrs Avere Avarned of punting, but held a 41 to 40 yard punt advantage.

Avanger did most of the booting for the Maroons and Francis for the Cornhuskers. Nebraska scored in the first f'ight minutes. After an exchange of the ball by recovering fumbles Nebraska had the oval on the Chicago 45. long pass to Scherer fell I incomplete and on the next play Cardwell went on a Avide left end sweep for 26 yards. Four plays later he Avent over right tackle, standing up, for the touchdOAvn.

Vincent and McClary Are Matched for Third Mat Duel Here Friday Jack Vincent, the Arkansas blond, and Pat McClary, Irish giant, principals in two of the most turbulent Avrestling duels ever Avitnessed here, have been signed to headline thisj mat offering of the lodge it Avas announced Saturday night by; Promoter George Simpson. i inconclusive victory in; a Avlld match Avhich broke up in near riot last Friday night, led to the decision to rematch the pugnacious pair for the feature bout next Friday. The Arkansas grappler Avas aAvard- ed tim match here last Friday Avlmn Mc(Tary was disqualified for slugging his opponent outside of the ropes after having evened the bout at a fall apiece by taking the second set-to. Jiirges the nod over Billy Rogell, and Stall Hack an edge over Marvin Owen at shortstop and third, respectively. Jurges hit with Rogell but he can cover more territory: Hack is superior to Owen at bat and in competitive spirit, a margin that is reduced some by his inherent Aveakneas in fielding hunts.

Hack is rapidly collecting that fault, but a cinch the Tigers, artists all in the art of sacrificing, will aim a lot of bunts at the ex-bank clerk who made good. Mickey Cochrane, one of base- greatest figures, is i the great Cub backstop, Leo Hartnett, whose lack of speed contributes a lot of double plays to the enemy, but there isn much to choose between them. Base steal' ers had better beware of their mighty throAving arms. Both the real spark plugs of their clubs. Gabby has been having his best hitting year this season, a better one than Mickey, The lival pitchers stack about even on fieldine.

The Cubs have one distinct margin in infield reserves with their team captain. Woody English, ready to step in at any Infield position Avith a brilliant performance and with Outfielder Fred Lindstrom capable of moAing into play third, shortstop or second in an emerg- eny. Heinie Schublo and Herman Clifton are the Tiger infield reserves, but. candidly, they Englishes and Liiidstrorns. So, when you get through com, paring the inner defenses of the two orld series contenders, it all sim- mers back to Greenberg.
