flous fat. Most of the men reported in1
good condition which shortened up the
preliminary work considerably.
Need Tackles
As the team stands now it appears
that the greatest effort of the coach-
ing staff must center on the two tackle
positions left open by the graduation
of Goetz and Tad .Wieman, both now
members of the coaching staff. There
p are a number of men available for
these positions, Johns of the 1920 Var-
sity who has had experience under
fire probably being the best bet at
present. Don Wieman, a member of
S Mathers' freshman squad lastbyear
and a brother of Tad is another likely
candidate. He scales in the neighbor-
t hood of 220 pounds and with his natur-
al ability and the instruction he will
receive from Maddock, Boetz and the
other line coaches will develop rapid-
n ly. Stan Muirhead, also a member of
d the yearling eleven last year is be-
ing: used at tackle and although he is
r a trifle light may make the grade.

back in harness, and Bernie Kirke,
former Notre Dame star, eligible for
Conference play. Kirke carries the
triple threat which has become so
much a part of. offensive play in the
last few years, his running, passing
and kicking being excellent. McWood
and Keatley have made favorable im-
pressions in scrimmage and will bear
watching.
Several Brilliant Backs
When an inspection of the backfield
candidates is made all observers are
unanimous in agreeing that it is the
best in .some years. Headed by Stek-
etee, All-American fullback in 1918
the entire array is one of unusual
brilliancy. Stek appears to be in good
shape and if he can steer clear of in-
juries during the hard games should
exceed anything' he has displayed dur-
ing his career on Ferry field. Harry
Kipke is another man who is being
watched by followers of football

Former Varsity DiamondStars fake
Good In Mtayor And Mtinor Leagues

Although the Varsity baseball ag-
gregation failed to bring home its
fourth successive Big 10 diamond
championship last spring, Coach Fish-
er's men commanded attention

ing the overwhelming defeat admin-

istered Illinois, Conference champions, box has been used as relief hurler with

ity of western baseball critics that the ords equalle donly by George Sisler

run their course should add to the
laurels so successfully garnered by
Sisler.

Wolverines were the strongest combin-
ation in the Big 10, but a few costly
slips at Madison which gave the Card-
inals the last game of the season, pre-
vented the Varsity from being univer-
sally hailed as champions.
.Notwithstanding the loss of the cov-
eted banner last year, Michigan has
in the past few years gained a name'
as the cradle of basebll stars that is
inducing more prep school diamond
stars to come here every year. There
is something synonomous in the names
Sisler and Michigan, something that
instantly links the performances of
the great American leaguer with his
baseball days here at the University.
Other Wolverine stars have broken

and Mike Knode, was the leading pitch-
er of the Big 10 duriig the 1919 and
1920 seasons .and one of the most ef-
fective college curvers the game has
produced. Thrown into the midst of a
big league campaign he has shown the
caliber necessary for success in the
majors.
Perrin to Majors
Jack Perrin, '21, who shone in the
center garden on the ,Varsity last
spring, was signed by the Boston Am-
ericans on the recommendation of Der-
rill Pratt, Red Sox second baseman,
who was baseball coach here for a
time last year. Perrin joined the
Boston club in Detroit early in July'
and in his first appearance at Navin

Vick Not Out
It ).s hard to see how any new men
can force Captain Dunne and Gob Wil-
son from the guard positions. These
veterans of three years may be con-
sidered posted unless the coaches de-
cide that they can be utilized to bet-
ter advantage at some other position.
Ernie Vick has not been able to report
as yet although the veteran pivot man
was in Ann Arbor for a hurried visit
last week. He will be back in togs by
today it is expected and ready to take
up the fight for his regular post. In
his absence Petro has been performing
in the middle of the Varsity line and

thoughouit the country because of .the
wonderful record he made on prep
school gridirons two years ago. - As a
member of the' All-fresh, the Lansing
boy showed everything last year that
had been claimed for him and is out-
doing himself this year to maintain
his standing. He is a wonderful brok-
en field runner, a demon on defense
and looks like a sure bet for a regular
berth at half. Ed Usher stare line
plunger last year, is back on Ferry
field for his last year of competition
and although he has not appeared in
scrimmage for any length of time
gives evidence of duplicating his 1920
performances. Ted Banks has resum-
ed his spectacular performances where
he left off in the Minnesota game last
fall and featured the opening scrim-
mage last week by breaking away from
the Reserves and running 40 yards for
a touchdown. Banks, because of his
experience and flashy running, is the
pick of the quarterbacks. Uteritz
and Knode are other likely looking
helmsmen. Roby, Fairbairn and Dean,
brought up from the 1920 freshman
squad have all been used in the back-
field in scrimmage and Roby especial-
ly has attracted attention. Kreis and
Paper, "AMA" men last year, must
also be given consideration for posts
behind the line.
With the opener against Mount Un-
ion scheduled for Saturday at Ferry
field it is probable that this week will
see some of the present members of
the squad relegated to the Reserves
and the attention of the coaches cen-
tered: on whipping a machine into
shape to take the field against the
Ohio cllegians.

Tryouts for the Business side

afternoon this week. Under the
