TRANSCANT
SCHLADEMANN ASKS CREDIT FOR FROSH
Yearlings' Coaches Have Nine Men Who Will Run Hard Varsity Race
Backfield Very Strong
McDonald, Fraker, Hale, Denhan Little, Spurgeon, McAdams Allison are Stars
"The freshman football squad has developed into a well oiled machine, and it is safe to say that it is more dangerous than any freshman bunch has been at K. U. for many moons," said Coach Schindelmann this morning. "The freshman team should not be forgotten when it comes to passing the banquets and credit for making the Varsity what it is today."
With the assistance of Assistant Coach Stem Foster, Coach Schlademann has rounded out a dangerous squad of pigkin-carrying demons. Varsity material grows rank in the football world, but it is the best place for existence, next years' Varsity promises to be even stronger than this year's team, with twenty on the first squad and all doing extraordinary work for freshmen. Coach Schlademann figures at 21. The varsity material, and will give some of the old men a race for their positions next year.
CALLIN 'EM BY NAME
With Wulf and Denham at center both going strong, the middle of the first year line is exceptionally strong. Austin, Fraker and McKee, playing guard, with Fraker holding the place best and having chances for Varsity another hole is well filled. Four men have the tackle positions, the tack positions, Hale, Sanfifer and Harris being Variety material, with Higgins a likely contender. McDonald, McVey and Blaker playing ends mean that end runs by opponents actually comes to grief. McDillon will be playing with the first string man next year, if he keeps his present against him. He's strong, having out of the eight men playing these positions, four good chances for all-valley positions.
HEADY MEN NOT WANTING
Little and Wilson piloting the game have shown unusual ability in that line, and would make competition keen if they were eligible for "K" football. Spurgon and Davidson are being drafted back into the real strength lie in McAdams and Allison, both of whom stand good chances of being in a position for their "K" next year.
"A good man shouldn't be told about it too often or too much," said Coach Schleidmann, "but when you have material such as I have, you can't keep from telling the world about it, and more especially that freshman back at McGunn of Little, Wilson, McAdams and Allison any coach would be proud of."
"Better say something nice now, when its deserved," said Assistant Coach Foster, "for if they get a bit cocky, they'll get all that knocked out of them next year, and it won't hurt them now."
The best of them admit that the Kansas football team is no slouch, as but to as made them good, nothings. They can't make them good. The freshman made them, say the rooters, for without the freshmen to knock down and roll in the mud, the Varsity could not get that won- tness bucking ability that it possesses.
"CUSSIN" TOM SMITH PUTS PUNCH IN TEAM
Not a Question of Who Will Win
—But by How Much,
He Says
"The secret of good football is concentration," said "Cusinan" Tom Smith, one of the famous K. U. foot-ball team who returned to assist in putting the team up for a national football. "If a team with the right spirit can work only two or three plays with a fast punch—can get them right and accuracy necessary—we have it."
"The present K. U, squad has very promising material," said Smith, "but they have overlooked a few points of teamwork that I think the last week's practice has eliminated. I think that we will beat the Aggies in it — it is not a question of who will win — but by how much. We can make it convincing by piling up a large score, and I think we will."
Mr. Smith played on the all-victorious team of 1898, and in three other years for K. U. In 1898 he did the booting for the Crimson and the Blue, setting a record of forty-five field goals after touchdowns, and no
misses. He appeared in Dr. Allen's offices Thursday morning with the old white "K" sweater he won in 99. He practiced with the men on the field this afternoon, and showed his still good condition, by working in the line and putting some of the vulgars on their feet.
