At all events it appears that, with the possible excep- tion of Purdue, none of the teams will be able to emerge from the season's encounters without defeat. Gophers Powerful Minnesota, the present pace setter, was conceded only an outside chance to cut a figure in the race when the season opened, but Dr. Cooke appar- ently is striving to convince the Gopher- athletic heads that he is far from 1hrough as a coach. The Gopher mentor has developed a power- ful cdurt five that appears to be a worthy successor to the teams for- merly turned out at Minneapolis. Swanson, a sophomore forward, has been a tower of strength to Minne- sota's attack and his work together with that of Hullkrans, a guard, was largely responsible for the brilliant win Minnesota scored over Wisconsin a week ago. The Gophers do not meet Michigan or Purdue but have yet to play a two game series with 'linois and a return game with Wis- consin at Minneapolis. If the Goph- ers safely weather these contests they should stand in striking distance of the covetedchampionship. Purdue is again the victim 'of a short schedule. With only nine Con- ference games on their card the Boil- ermakers need every game to stand a good chance of copping the bunting.
