To Face Michigan State Quintet Tonight
With Sltar On Tue Sidelines Maitler
Will Start Rece At Tue
Forward Position
ILLINOIS HERE MONDAY
Michigan's Varsity basketball five
will face the strong Michigan State
college quintet at 7:30 toNght at the
ied house in the fourth non-Confer-
ence game of the season.
Definite announcement as to the
starting lineup was not forthcoming
yesterday, but indications point to!
Frank Harrigan remaining on the
bench, in order to assure his presence
in the lineup in the crucial clash with
Ililnois on Monday night.
With Harrigan out of the game,
Michigan will line up with Reece and
Chambers at the forward positions,
Capt. Dick Doyle at center and Cher-
rey and Molenda at the defense posi-
tions. Petrie, Martin and Oosterbaan
will be held in reserve.
Coach Mather hald a light shooting
practice yesterday afternoon in final
preparation for tonight's encounter
with the Iansing five and Monday'st
battle with Coach Craig Ruby's court
aggregation. The Skipper has been
drilling his squad with an eye onc
the tilt with the Illini but he doest
not take tonight's game lightly. r
Michigan State will invade Ann Ar-
bor with a well built squad of players,t
who will fight for the entire forty
minutes of play for victory. State willz
line up with Colvin and Hackett at the
forwards, O'Connor at the pivot posi-
tiin, and Cole and Drew at the guards.
Drew is the best floor man on the
team, while the goal shooting is fair-
ly evenly divided between the two
forwards, the center and Drew. c
Coach Mather has spent a busy j
week pointing the team for the Mich-
igan State game and the first Con-
ference game of the season, which :
will be played with the Illini Monday
night. As usual the Urbana court1
squad is a strong aggregation and:
will make plenty of trouble, but with
Harrigan in shape and able to start,
the Wolverines stand ready to thwart
the Illini.
The clatter team plays State to-
night, which will doubtless prove a
stiff encounter. Captain Haines has+
lost his position at guard to Deimling,
a sophomore. Daugherty and Lipe
are the probable starters at forward
with Mauer at center and Reynolds+
playing the other guard.

EYTUCKSTRS PLY TO1TE
III LAST NIGHT'S GAME
Michigan's Varsity hockey team, di-
vided into two teams the Reds and
Blues, played to a scoreless 'tie in last
night's scrimmage. Preceeding the
scrimmage Coach Barss drilled the
men in general passing work and
team play.
The ice being in very poor shape
handicapped the players to a great
extent. Lack of cooperation seemed
to be the main fault as indicated in
last night's practice. Time and time
again the defense men carried the
puck far down the ice and then the
pass was seldom received. As soon
as the team play and passing im-
proves, the team will be in very fair
shape.
Larson, who was counted on to take
care of one of the wing positions, has
not returned to Ann Arbor due to an
illness contracted over the holidays.
It is expected that his services will
be unavailable 'throughout the entire
season.
In last night's practice game Cap-
tain Reynolds played center for the
Blue team with Sibilsky and Levi
at the wings, Gabler and Roach at the
defenses, and. Weitzel at goal. The
Reds were composed of the follow-
ing: Fisher, center, McDuff and Den-
ton, wings, Peterman and Bissett, de-
fenses, and Jones at goal. There were
no outstanding performances last
night. Coach Barss shifted Denton
and Sibilsky twice in an attempt to
strengthen the combinations. The
practice was followed by a blackboard
talk.
Coach B.arss is still trying to sche-
dule a game for Tuesday night to re-
place the Michigan State game, which
was postponed till the following Sat-
urday. No a rrng.ements could be
made with any Detroit or Windsor
teams. A game is now pending how-
ever with Assumption college for
Tuesday night. If this game is not
announced officially 'on Sunday the
Varsity hockey team will open their
season next Thursday night, when
they cross sticks with Marquette at
the Coliseum in Ann Arbor.
