THE KENTUCKY KERNEL
BLUE AND WHITE TEAM

lias always been able to Inculcate
into an athletic organization under
his direction. Remember the Freshmen team of 1914.
Tho passing of Park, Tuttle, Hite,
Scott, Downing, Bailey, Roth and others marks tho practical destruction of
last year's team. An entirely new
backfleld will have to be built up, and
positions in the lino are by no means
assured.
Of the old Varsity men who are
back this season Captain Shrader
stands at tlte head. He has not been
out for practice in the afternoons because of other duties, but has been
seen in the mornings booting the ball
50 and 60 yards.
Dig "Pats" Thompson, with his 190
pounds, is cavorting around In characteristic style. Ho is faster this
year than ever and Coach Tigert says
he is seriously considering playing the
big man on the end this season.
Maury Crutcher,
star and
for the past two years a Varsity man,
will be out soon.

Franklin Corn, of Harrodsburg, another last year's linesman, is out again
with his 185 pounds solidly built
around his massive frame.
Karl Zerfoss, who was used on the
end and in the backfleld last year,
will try for a position on the '15 eleven.
Coach Tigert is basing his optimistic forecast concerning a winning aggregation largely upon the Freshman
team, all of whom are in the University again.
Outstanding in the bunch, and about
whom has been much anxiety concerning his matriculating this year is
"Doc'j Redes, ,who has decided to
cast his lot again with the Blue and
White. "Doc" could not resist the
call of the blood in spite of the press
of business in which he has been en-- J
gaged down in Mississippi.
Kinney, of the Freshman team, and
Bart Peak are men whom Tigert can
call on to relieve Rodes.
Jimmie Hedges, always a popular
favorite along the side lines, is also in
college but has not yet appeared for
practice.
For backfleld positions will be
one of the fastest and most
powerful men In college; Gumbert, of
Richmond, who has appeared In several Varsity games; Britton, the big,
massive fullback on the Freshman
team, who hails all the way from Colorado. "Tlnk" and Charley Haydon,
the Springfield ends, and "Red"
Spaulding, a townsman, who did
guard duty for the Freshmen, will
work hard for places. HIckerson, the
big linesman from Somerset, is here
but due to an illness this summer is
not in the best of shape.
Server, Freshman tackle last year,
is out booting the pigskin 60 or more
yard. In the kicking department the
coaches say they are admirably
equipped.
Dempsey is about 17 pounds lighter
than he was last year, as he only manages to tip the beam at 185 or thereabouts.
Simpson, former Lexington High
School star, who played guard for the
Freshmen last year, weighs about 185
pounds at present and is in good
shape. "Red" Eubanks, a substitute
lineman last year, who weighs over
200 and who came to State in 1914
as "green ns a gourd" as far as football Is concerned, should develop into
a good man this season.
MurSlierley Clayton, a
ray, Ky product, is back for a position and work In tho University.

Almost anything that can bo said
about the new arrivals, who are football hungry, is only problematical at
present.
Those showing up well in
practice aro:
Clements, of Morganfleld, who has
starred on tho high school team of
that place for tho last three or four
years and who weighs about 200
pounds.
Vandoren, a
compactly
built and strong Cynthlana high
school man.
Nat Aaron, of Liberty, Ky., who
will weigh 165 at present, says he is
almost 10 pounds underweight.
These men are line material and
another who is expected to bIiow up
soon is Tapscott, of Owensboro. To
describe him would be to say he la
enormous. Ho weighs more than 200
pounds.
d

For the backfleld the most likely
candidates of the new men at present
seem to be:
Mcllvain, a Cynthlana boy, who will
weigh about 165 pounds. This man
is highly commended by those who
have seen him in action for Cynthlana
High School.
A teammate and the other half on
the Cynthlana team last year is Poln- dexter. He weighs about 10 pounds
less than Mcllvain, but is lightning
fast.

last year's Covington High School
team', which "mopped up" with nearly
all the high school teams around Cincinnati and the northern part of the

but is as wide as he is high and solid
as an oak.
Paul Spann, one of the best men
that Shelbyvllle High School has ever
produced, is a man similar in build to
that of Davidson. His weight is practically the same.
Many others are out, and probably
the best "find" in college has not
been referred to here.
of Mt.
E. E. Bogie, a
Sterling; William Duncan, of Owensboro, who is pronounced by the large
Davies County contingent In the University to be the best football player
in the state, are other possibilities,
who, the coaches say, may come in.
Crutcher promises to induce Heick,
the star center on Manual's eleven
last year, to come here.
"Chicken" Park, "Turkey's" brother, is expected to come out soon, as
is another brother, George, of the famous Park family.
Karl Zerfoss also has a "kid"
brother, George, in school, who is
larger than Karl and is said to be
good pigskin "stuff."
Butler College will be here October
2 for the opening game.
It will be
the dedication game of the new Barker Stadium and Judge Barker will
in all probability be called upon to
make a speech.
The new field is a beauty. Besides
the addition to the new fences and
the bleachers which have been erected, a new press box which will accomodate the Kentucky Kernel, Lexington
Herald and Leader and other representatives, will be erected before the
first game in the center and at the tdp
of the new bleachers on the south
side.
