"The game of football is peculiarly interesting because of its extreme uncertaint and its tenseness
of play," Coach Bierman said. He
defined football as a "hash" or
composite of all athletic sports, containing all elements, skill, teamwork and "blood." He said a football player who supplements his
play with sufficient study and other
activities in his college life, would
'emerge a finer,
He stated that the quality
of football sectionally throughout

that as afl indication of the growing interest in the sport.

Future
By LAURENCE SHROPSHIRE
(Leader Sports Editor)
If, as some loyal supporters pleasantly insist, a new day is breaking
in the University of Kentucky football picture, it still is definitely in
the breaking stage. Grey streaks
of dawn seem to be lighting the
sky, but the sun hasn't yet burst
over the horizon.
That's merely a way of saying

that the

long-await-

championship
Wildcat eleven
hardly appears a prospect for the
coming gridiron campaign.
Certainly there's no thought of a
crushing, conquering Kentucky grid
machine this year in the mind of
Albert Dennis (Ab) Kirwan, the
young man who some 18 months
ago was called back to his alma
mater and charged with buoying
the University's sinking football
fortunes. In regard to the rapidly
approaching season he is optimistic
to a reasonable degree, and definitely hopeful, but he promises no
more than a fighting team and hard
work by both coaches and players.
It might be as well be admitted
at the outset, however, that the U.

K. grid prospects for the 1939 season, while not altogether glowing,
are not in the least dismal.
Kentucky football at the time the
new staff took charge early in 1938
was surrounded by air that was

viously extensive
was
needed. A start was made, almost
from a totally new foundation, and
since then some progress has been
accomplished. A miracle team was
not developed overnight, in the first
season, or even in the first yea?
and a half of work, but Kirwan
and his assistants are confident
they have made headway and that
they are building, if slowly, at least
firmly.
They are satisfied to make progress in that manner. As the head
coaifi himself express ,jt: ,"We
feel we had better learn to crawl
before we try to walk or run."
Only One Candidate "Doubtful"
Last season, Kirwan's first as the
Wildcat skipper, he was forced to
start the campaign with virtually a
second-strin- g
team on the field. At

gridders who had
least a
figured prominently in his plans
were lost from the squad even before the first game. There were
several more early casualties, and

Ponder Settlement

Of Danzig Question

A plan for a peaceful settlement
of the Danzig question was reported
afoot in Europe today.
In Berlin a Nazi source with unusually good offictil connections
said that Professor Carl J. Bruck-hard- t.
League of Nations commissioner for Danzig, had proposed a
reunion of Danzig to Germany with
establishment of "a direct and guaranteed connection" between East
Prussia, including Danzig, and Germany proper.
It was admitted for the first
time in Berlin that Burckhardt was

Hitler, Polish Foreign
last week.
Minister Beck and Albert Forster,
Danzig Nazi leader, all were said
to have accepted the plan as a
possible basis for discussion.
In London British official circles
observed that Burckhardt now was
"in a position to make contacts"
with both the Polish government
and the Danzig senate, and they
saw in Burckhardt s talks with Hitler a possible preliminary move to
negotiate the Danzig dispute.
In Warsaw also the view was expressed that Burckhardt had discussed with Hitler the possibility of
a "new solution," for the future of
the free city, Germany's before the
World War and now within Poland's customs administration.

studying, which is so far away in
the hazy distance now, we chose
a red plaid housecoat with yards of
skirt, a tipper front, and clever
frogs of black braid.
We dont
usually think of going to teas in
plaid, but we're even considering
that because we saw a bright blue
dress with a full dirndl skirt and a
pigskin belt. After dark, if we're

As usual, we found the smart
tailored suit which will be worn
with sheer wool shirts, as well as
cotton and silk ones, and with soft,
lovely sweateis. Gored skirts have
the lead, and there will be many
combinations of plaids and solid
colors. From suits we progressed to

The old
ciaxsic, the camel's hair coat, is still
with us. Perhaps it's the best after
all.
Tricky Fnrs
In fur coats, the little waist is
news. The effect is that of a waist
the size of a hand-spaand is
there any girl who doesn't desire
that effect? The cleverest thing we
raw in furs wai one of Alaska seal.
The coat zipped apart at the waist
and what have we? The top turned
out to be a Jacket, while the bottom
was a cape.

We've looked and looked for all

the details in fall clothes, and we
have decided that one person simply
couldn't take advantage of as many
types, trends, and fads in fashion
as she might like. So we're definitely going to be ourselves, and if
plaids don't fit our mood, then
plaids will be out, even though they
are all the news. Our accessories
will match and we will sport one
or two of the latest fads.
We bump back to earth; we suddenly realize that the thermometer
is soaring. The electric fan must
bring the breeze we need until next
fall, when those new clothes will
freshen our spirits while they protect us from the autumn winds.

No highly touted performers
coming up from the freshman
ranks, but among the
are a number of good prospects, and
while none this far in advance ap
pears likely to crash the regular
lineup some of them doubtless will
prove useful for relief duty.
Kirwan and the other coaches
are definitely optimistic in their
views regarding the coming season.
The head man is confident he will
have "a better team," and while he
admits that with the one exception
he will rate no more than an even
chance against any of his foes, he
emphatically declares: "We're bound
to win some ball games."

as the season wore on, an unusually
heavy toll was taken by injuries.
A result was that the bulk of the
burden through the tough campaign
was borne by green sophomores.
Kentucky played good football In
spots, but succeeded in winning only three minor games and lost at
least a couple the Wildcats were
figured to win.
This season, at this somewhat
early date, the outlook is brighter.
Kirwan expects to begin practice
Sept. 1 with a squad of about 45
huskies, slightly larger than the
squad he had at the start last fall.
Only one in the whole lot is at
present listed as a doubtful quan
tity because of old injuries.
He is Dutch Ishmael, powerful
junoir fullback, who received a se
vere knee injury in the Georgia
Tech game last fall. Ishmael in
spring practice appeared to have
acquired more speed and shiftiness
