We have more defensive depth," Elliott commented. Line coach Bob Hollway went into more detail on the subject, "We've been trying to improve the individuals through drills so far. The defense hasn't been test- ed in scrimmage yet." The first test for the defense will come today in the first full- scale scrimmage of the season. The line seemed solid to the coaches, but Hollway emphasized the line- backing problem. "This year we've started using fullbacks and centers as lineback- ers, after having used guards be- fore. We need better linebacking to improve over last year." Mel Anthony, a junior fullback. playing with the first team, and Tom Cecchini, first string center, have taken over the new assign- ment. The defensive backfield also includes sophomore John Rowser, presently suffering with a pinched nerve ailment; and Dick Refs Needed There will be a meeting held at the Intremural Sports Bldg. at 5 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 12, for all men interested in offi- ciating I-M touch football games. Wells, recently moved to right half to replace injured Rick Sygar. Sophomores Coach Hollway remarked that "the work of the sophomores is particularly gratifying." Proof of the statement is the fact that three sophomores are playing with the first team. "Chuck Dehlin is also coming along as a linebacker. Ken Wright has some potential on defense, but has been slowed up lately by minor injuries." Hollway's final comment was, however, that "linebacking is still a real question mark." Depth The starting defensive line has had :nore experience, and is es- pecially deep this year. Elliott re- peatedly stressed the element of depth this year as opposed to last year. "Tom Keating has exper- ience and has performed well this year." Big Bill Yearby is the only sophomore on the first line. The team went through relative- ly light drills yesterday in prepa- ration for today's scrimmage, 1:30 p.m. at the Stadium. Being the first scrimmage of the fall, it will be the first real test of the team's unity. The minor injury list is still somewhat long, however, as start- ing end Bill Laskey did rot prac- tice due to a cold; and John Hout- man has had the flu. John Mark- ham also has been bothered by minor injuries as has end Jim Conley. (EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the first article in a series on various aspects of the athletic expansion program of the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics.) By TOM WEINBERG Last spring the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics an- nounced its plan to charge stu- dents $12 for athletic coupons in order to finance a long-range multi - million dollar expansion project. The expansion plan entails more than just replacing musty Yost Field House with a new basketball arena. "The basketball arena is the most immediate need, but it is far from the only project we will work on," commented Dean Steph- en Spurr, chairman of the Plant Expansion Committee of the Board in Control. Intramural Additions Spurr went on to say that in- cluded in the plans are "added facilities for intramurals, expan- sion of the physical education plants for both men and women, and increased recreation oppor- tunities on both the central and north campuses." Since the initial announcement last May, the Board has made little progress. Before any specific method for financing the expan-I sion can be utilized, the needs must be clearly outlined and the exact specifications of the pro- posed expansion muss be clarified. The Board has authorized hir- ing preliminaryarchitects to start working out the details, and ac- cording to Spurr, "the next step is to zero in on the exact size, location and type of structure that we want to build and to get pro- fessional help on our layout prob- lems." $8 Million Project When the Board first disclosed its plans, the estimated cost of the entire project was approximately $8 million. "The basketball arena is not going to be a multi-purpose building such as the $14 million mushroom at the University of Illinois," Spurr disclosed. "The cost of the arena is estimated to be in the neighborhood of $21/ to $3% million. "The exact specifications of the new arena are uncertain, but the committee and the University architect, Lynn Fry, have studied many new structures across the country," Spurr went on to say. country, including the one at the The exact location of the new arena and whether or not the locker room and parking facilities for the Michigan Stadium will be able to be used for it remain un- certain pending the recomnienda- tions of the architects. Plans by November The proposed arena was orig- inally conceived to be ready for the 1964-65 basketball season. Spurr made a statement as to definite immediate goals when he said that "by the time this (the 1963-64) basketball season is un- derway, we should know what type of structure we want to build, how big it will be, where it will be, and approximately how much it will cost." The plans for expansion other than the new field house as orig- inally disclosed by the Board would include an addition to Ferry Field for intramurals and co-recreational facilities in the women's pool area. The plans for financing hinge on the amount of money required to complete the various parts of the plan. The possibility exists that the University will float a bond issue to raise the necessary funds, but the Board in Control, an in de p e n d e nt organization, could float its own bond issue and raise the funds on its own.

Coach Bump Elliott has been pleased h his defensive line which he rates as quite improved from years. OMEN'S HOCKEY: Practice Begins for Michigan By BILL BULLARD This will be a banner year for men's field hockey in this coun- - as the International of omen's Hockey Associations is lding its quadrennial conference d tournament at Goucher Col- e, near Baltimore. [he only other conclave held in United States was at Phila- phia in 1936. Major interest for Ann Arbor area involves the t that two of the foreign teams competing in the tournament at Goucher will be matched against local teams later this month. Local Play Trinidad is scheduled to play Ann Arbor and Germany will op- pose Great Lakes at Palmer Field on Sept. 22. This is four days after the 17-nation tournament at Goucher concludes. The Ann Ar- bor team includes just local girls but Great Lakes is composed of all-stars from the midwest region. Palmer Still Ailing As Series Begins AKRON, Ohio (M)-Bob Char- les, the lanky longshot from New Zealand, led yesterday's final practice session for the $75,000 World Series of Golf with a two- under-par 68 at the Firestone Country Club course where the 36-hole showdown begins today. U.S. Open champion, Julius Ciney's Star Badly Inured CINCINNATI P) - Outfielder Frank Robinson, who was spiked in the sixth inning of last night's Cincinnati Reds-New York Mets game, may be out for the rest of the season. Dr. Richard Rohde, the Reds trainer, said the three-time Na- tional L3ague slugging champion's left bicep was pierced by the spike of Mtiets second baseman Ron Hunt. Dr. Rohde said he'll be out for more than a week. Boros, had a 69. No. 1 money win- ner Arnold Palmer 73 and Mas- ters PGA champion Jack Nick- laus 75. Even Par In two days of practice, the 43- year-oldBoros had a 36-hole total of 137. Charles 143, and Nicklaus 144. Palmer had picked up on one hole during Thursday's practice round but was even par for the 17 holes he completed. Charles said after his round he still thought the 7,165-yard Fire- stone course was built primarily for power-hitters and was much too long for him. Nothing But Money Palmer, moving toward the cli- max of a trouble-plagued year in which he's won nothing but money, will give his ailing shoul- der the supreme test today. Boros holed two shots from sand traps during his round yes- terday and quipped "with my' luck, I probably won't get into the sand tmorrow." The Women's Physical Educa- tion Club, an organization of phy- sical education majors, is spon- soring a tea for the foreign vis- itors after the two matches. Then the German team will move on to Kalamazoo where it will face an all-star Michigan team including Margie Bloom and Marilyn Brown. These two players were main- stays on the Michigan team that compiled a 3-0-1 record last sea- son. The lone tie was against Mich- igan State and a rematch this season is assured. Other tentative games will be with Eastern Michigan, Western Michigan, Albion, and Bowling Gteen. Definite dates have not yet been arranged but all. home games usually start at 3:30 Friday after- noons at Palmer Field. Practice Practice for the Michigan team begins Monday afternoon. Coach Pat Daugert will have her charges sharpening up their skills every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 4-6 p.m. after that. Any girl interested in joining the team should contact Coach Daugert or any member of the team. Last season the team had about 25 or 30 members. Since two teams of 11 players each are needed for practice, a large squad is again necessary. Coach Daugert plays her top 11 in the varsity games and then has her next 11 best players compete in the junior var- sity game that follows all varsity games. Rules Each game consists of two 30 minute halfs with a ten minute break in between. There is little substitution so the girls usually must play the full 60 minutes. Five players form the line which consists of a left and right wing, a left and right inner, and a cen- ter forward. Three halfbacks,two fullbacks and a goalie complete the team. The game is basically much like ice hockey or soccer. On a field 100 feet long and 60 feet wide, each team tries to hit the ball into the other's net. All goals must be made from a semi-circular area in front of the net. One major rule is that no stick can be raised above the shoulder.

Sorry girls-men only BIG TEN: Teams Have Heavy Drills By The Associated Press COLUMBUS-Woody Hayes will know more after his Ohio State football candidates hold their first scrimmage today, but he has his eye on a prospective fullback with qualities in the tradition of past Buckeye line busters. The prospect is 212-pound Wil- lard Sander of Cincinnati. He's showed hard-driving qualities and the same speed and ability that marked him as a freshman. * * * LAFAYETTE - Hard - hitting senior fullback Gene Donaldson was lost to Purdue's football squad yesterday for about two weeks be- cause of a shoulder injury suffer- ed in a defensive drill. Donaldson was the Boilermak- ers' second best ground-gainer last year with a 5.41 yard average per carry. MADISON - Wisconsin football Coach Milt Bruhn tested his Badgers in a contact workout yes- terday as the defending Big Ten champions prepared for their first game-type scrimmage today. Veteran tackle Andy Wodjula returned to contact work after be- ing sidelined with a chest bruise. Senior guard Dion Kepthorne was out of action with a back injury. CHAMPAIGN -The University of Illinois' football squad will engage in its first game-type scrimmage today and it may go far towards determining the shape of the 1963 Illini varsity. "We need scrimmage and film reviews to start evaluating our personnel," Coach Pete Elliott said yesterday. "Saturday's com- petition will enable us to make some decisions on positions." Name Honig As Assistant Dick Honig, one of the finest shortstops in University ofsMichi- gan diamond history, has been named to assist Head Coach Moby Benedict with the Wolverine dia- mond squad. The appointment was confirmed last night by the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics and announced by Athletic Director Fritz Crisler. The 21-year-old Honig compet- ed in football, basketball and base- ball at McKenzie High School in Detroit. He is a native of Farming- ton and a graduate of the College of Education. He also is current- ly studying for his master's de- gree in education Honig was a key figure as the Wolverines won the NCAA and College World Series titles two years ago. Collaborating with sec- ond baseman Joe Jones, he figured in the 60 double plays the Maize and Blue team amassed that year. In all he earned three diamond let- ters although his college career was cut short the past season by a broken wrist. .r a By The Associated Press CINCINNATI-Willie Mays, the San Francisco Giant star whose all-out play caused him to be sidelined again by exhaustion, has won the National League Player of the, Month for August. The league office announced Mays' selection by writers and broadcasters yesterday. It was the third time Mays has won it since the award was started in 1958. Mays hit .387 during August, Big Ten Talent Chart (EDITOR'S NOTE: Below is the table of the number of Big Ten football players from various surrounding states. The chart refers to Bill Bullard's article which appeared in The Daily Thursday.) drove in 27 runs in 28 games and hit eight home runs. The $100,000 center fielder col- lapsed on Labor Day from ex- haustion in a game with Chicago. Mays was due to return to the lineup Friday night when Los An- geles played the Giants. Mays earned 23 votes in the monthly award, while his nearest rival, southpaw Warren Spahn of Milwaukee had 14. * * * ST. LOUIS-The St. Louis foot- ball Cardinals placed running back John David Crow on the dis- abled list Friday. Crow will not be able to return to the club roster until Oct. 6. Crow suffered torn ligaments in his knee during an exhibition game against the Chicago Bears. * * * PITTSBURGH-Dick Groat of the St. Louis Cardinals, the Na- tional League's leading batter, was taken to the hospital after being hit in the ribs by a pitch in the opening game of last night's doubleheader against the Pitts- burgh Pirates. Groat, batting .328, was plunked on the lower left side by Don Cardwell as the second man up in the first inning. The veteran shortstop was replaced by Dal Maxvill, and taken to University- Presbyterian Hospital for X-rays. * * * MADISON-Wisconsin's basket- ball fortunes suffered a severe blow yesterday when the team's top scorer and rebounder, Jack Brens, was dropped from school because of scholastic difficulties. Brens, a 6-8 senior from St. Charles, Ill., accounted for 425 points in 24 games last season and pulled down 306 rebounds. He was dropped from the college of let- ters and science for allowing his grades to fall below the C level. Coach John Erickson said there is "no chance at all' that Brens could regain eligibility.
