GRIDDERS READY Purple Squad to Start Practice Sep- tember 15 Under Fine Coaching Staff Headed by Glenn Thistlethwaite One of the largest and finest coach- ing staffs that ever tutored North- western university gridiron candidates will greet the more-than-a-hundred Purple prospects when they trot out upon the practice field for the first time September 15. Led by Head Coach Glenn F. Thistlethwaite, who enters his fifth year with the Wildcats, the staff will include Jack Ryan, former chief coach at the University of \Visconsin; Her- bert Steger, brilliant half back and captain of the Michigan eleven in 1924; Jerome A. Kent (Duke) Dunne, for- mer all-conference lineman from Mich- igan; Maurice A. Kent, head cage coach, who will again have charge of the freshmen candidates; and Orion Stuteville, I. W. Rusness and Timothy G. Lowry, all new additions to the mentor department this year, who will assist Kent in teaching the frosh grid tricks. These men, the majority of them familiar with conference football through years of active participation both as coaches and players, will be able to give the Purple gridders ex- pert instruction in the type of play re- quired in big time competition. Thistlethwaite and Ryan will be president and vice-president, respec- tively, of the board of directors. Ryan is regarded as one of the keenest foot- ball strategists developed in the west in years. Steger will again have the managership of the backfield depart- iment. This is the former Wolverine's second year with the Purple backs. He was one of the best backs in the con- ference two years ago and brought with him a wealth of advice and in- struction. Upon Duke Dunne, who has been coaching Northwestern linemen for four years now, will again fall the huge task of whipping the forward wall into shape. Dunne's greatest problem will be to find a capable center to fill the gap left open by the graduation of Capt. "Fighting Tim" Lowry, all-con- ference center last year. Lowry, him- self, now that he is a member of the coaching squad, will probably be drafted from the frosh division for a time to tutor his successor to the pivot post. Maury Kent will be the field general of the yearlings. The job will be a little lighter this year, it is expected, because of the addition of two new as- sistants. Stuteville, Oklahoma Aggie star last year, has been called to Ev- anston as the head wrestling coach here, and during the football season, will aid Kent. I. W. Rusness is an- other new addition. Rusness comes from the University of North Dakota. Previously he coached at Central high school of Fargo, N. D., where he in- structed Waldo Fisher and Bobby Rusch, who now are Purple stars of the first order. Alexus Finch "King" Brady, mon- arch of training rooms, will again rule over the red oil and trainers who rub away the kinks and aches of the tired athletes' muscles. A squad of over 100 is expected to answer the call for first practice on September 15. Miss Marion and Miss Grace Put- man, daughters of Mrs. C. H. Putman of 504 Birch street, have returned to their home after two months of European travel. Miss Marion will resume her music classes and Miss Grace again will take up her teaching at the Halsey school in Lake Forest. br Sema
