A. C. t 8 o'clock tonight in Yost field house, ollowing a light workout last night he squad was pronounced in good hape for the opening game by Coach lather. The Aggie basketball five, always hard opponent for the Michigan am, is practically intact from last mason and is expected to make a good id for victory tonight. Michigan will ut a team onto the floor which from s showing in recent practices should ake a successful start of the sea- on. Led by Captain Haggerty, herry, and Doyle, all of whom are eterans from last year the Wolverine ve will probably present a stronger ttack than that which took the open- r away from the Farmmers last year. Michigan's team will lineup with eason at center, Captain Haggerty nd Gregory at forwards, and Doyle nd Cherry at the guards. Reason, a eteran of the team in 1921, is one f the finest basket shots on the squad nd is expected to make a good show- g at Doyle's old post. Haggerty Leads Attack Haggerty is one of the finest for- ards in the Conference and Is the eader of the Michigan attack. Last ear lie was one -of the leading point otters in the Big Ten. Gregory, a iember of the football squad, will ndoubtedly get the call at the other orward job. He is fast on the floor, good shot at the net, and strong on he defense.

He is the best defensive layer on the team and his basket hooting ranks with that of any other layer in the Big Ten. Dick Doyle who will play the other uad in an attempt to strengthen the therwise weak defense of the squad, s expected to solve the problem which as been facing Mather since the be- ;inning of the practice season. Ruenzel May Play If the Michigan team manages to ,et any kind of a margin on the Ag- gies it is probable that several other players will get into the lineup. Kuen- el will undoubtedly see service at one of the forward positions and Iiutzel may. Line will probably get nto the game at guard. Kressach and Ladre are another pair who may see service. The Aggies with a 41-16 victory over Adrian Wednesday night, seemto have one of its best teams in a number of years. McMillan and Captain Nuttila at the forwards, Robinson at center, and Richards and Marx at the guards, make up a formidable combination, Robinson made five field goals and five free throws out of as many tries against Adrian, while the captain made three field goals and two free throws out of two tries. Marx, play- ing running guard, rang up four goals in the Adrian game. Hultman may have a chance at the back guard joL.
