Gordon Reynolds, Schimenz weighs 195 and is a member of the V-12 unit, from |
Milwaukee, Wisconsing He played backfield in high school but shows promise at
end, Gordon Reynolds, 6'1", weighing 183, had one year of competition at North
Dakota State, At right tackle, a freshman, Sam Hunter, 6 ft., weighing 180 lbs.
l7eyeareold, is the most promising candidate, Sam was allestate tackle last

| "The right guard position is a toss-up between Dud Day, 165 lbe, from Lae
Jolla, California; Garland Gantrell, 175 lbs, from Joplin Junior College; and
Fred Daneke, 162 lbs, from Topeka, At the center position two experienced men -
Wayne Hird, of Lawrence, 200 lbs., and Dan Chase, 194 lbse, are available,

"Prospects are slightly better than last year, but indications are. that
all teams will be somewhat stronger this year than last, due to an ineroase
in the number of 17-year-olds and an added year's experience for the 4F"s in
the camps of some of our opponents who have nothing but 4F students,"
