Gophers Best
n
Conference
By HEINIE MARTIN
Michigan will have another good
football team next fall, but don't
count too strongly upon another
conference championship.
That's the good word of Coach
Harry Kipke, who was the feat-
ured speaker at the Michigan alum-
ni banquet at Park Congregational
church last night.
"Minnesota will have the strong-
est team in the Big Ten," declared
the popular young Wolverine men-
tor, "The Gophers will be the team
to beat and I certainly don't feel
too sure that we'll have a team
capable of whipping them."
And we ventured to say there
probably would be other good teams
in the conference.
"Yes, several of them will be
strong. I look for Chicago to be
the surprise team of the confer-
ence. They have some real material
down there and they should go
places next fall. Ohio State has
some excellent material and if their
coach will fit in with the scheme
of things there, the Buckeyes will
be plenty hard to beat. And you
can look for a great improvement in
that Illinois team."
Likes Jerry Ford
It was only natural that we men-
tioned the tour Grand Rapids boys
on the Michigan squad, now in
spring training. Kipke, always the
frank and honest speaker, delved
right into their possibilities with-
out mincing any words.
"Grand Rapids is certain to have
at least one regular on the team
and you know that's Jerry Ford.
He is the ideal player for any coach
to work with. I'd like to have 11
boys of his type every fall and I'd
never worry again.
"Jerry has a marvelous compet-
itive spirit. He has loads of cour<
age, is always willing to work hard
and never lets anything get him
down. He will be my regular cen-
ter. And I don't mind telling you
that I look for him to play as good
a game as Chuck Bernard did last
year and I know that's saying some-
thing.
"Bernard excels Ford in only one
department of play. That's in his
passing. Bernard was the perfect
passer. Jerry is a good passer, but
not quite equal to Bernard, yet
Ford has a wider playing range.
He is just as good on offense and
defense as Bernard and has an ex-
ceptionally fine football brain. I
believe Ford will be the greatest
center in the conference next fall.
He is now scaling 202 pounds and
has shown wonderful improvement."
It seemed that Kipke was truly
enthused over Ford. He made
certain he was impressing us with
his opinion of Jerry's value. Then
he talked of the other Grand Rap-
ids boys.
Anent Tony Dauksza
"Tony Dauksza has excellent pos-
sibilitles as a halfback, although
right now he is on the verge of
being because bistends
les. Tony, however, would be a
better player if he had more confi-
dence in himself. He is inclined to
be moody and that's something good
football players shouldn't do. If
Dauksza makes up his mind to
work hard. he has an excellent
chance of making the team. But
it'll require hard work.
"Ernie Johnson. a former Union
boy, has been showing up well at
end and no doubt he'll see plenty
of action next fall, even though I
have several other exceptional pros-
pects for the end berths. I like this
boy Sears of Grand Rapids. He
has shown a fine attitude in work-
outs and I wouldn't be surprised to
see him get in at one of the guards,
He has plenty of ability and If he
keeps up his hard work, he may
land a. regular job."
Kipke is certain to miss some of
hls 1933 stars, we avowed.
"Sure I'll miss a lot of 'em, but
the man I'll miss most is Ever-
hardus. There was a better foot-
ball player than he was credited
with being. He'll be hard to re-
place and I don't know where I'm
going to get a. good quarterback.
Whitey Wistert will be tough to
replace. but I've got a. lot of good
line material, whereas my back-
field prospects aren't exactly New.
mans or Friedmans."
The Michigan couch went on to
say that Hildebrand, husky lineman,
had always wanted a chance at the
fullback post and may get it this
fall. Which would mean a shift of
Johnny Regeczi to halfback. Such
husky line veterans as Capt. Elect
Tom Austin, Ward, Borgman, Baird,
Jacobson, Viergever, Wright, Mal-
ashevich and others will insure the
Wolverines of a heavy, experienced
aggregation.
