52 REMAIN ON SQUAD
Coaches Confine Attention To Varous
Phases Of Kicking.Game In
Monday's Practice.
At the conclusion of yesterday's
workout which consisted mainly of a
drill in all departments of the kicking
game, Coach Elton E. Wieman an-
announced the first scrimmage for;
this afternoon on old Ferry field with
a regular game carded for Saturday
afternoon. Today a scrimmage will
be the last thing on the practice pro-
gram, following the usual drill in
fundamentals which has formed the
greater part of the work since last
Thursday's first practice, and will
probably be held about 4:30 or 5:00
o'clock.
The scrimmage in reality wil con-
sist of two scrimmages, Wieman as-
serted, as it is planned to work in the
form of four teams, having two
"games."
Yesterday the candidates continued
to work in groups according to posi-
tions during the first part of the prac-
tice. The ends were in charge of
Coach Voenker, the tackles under
Wieman and the guards and centers
under Coaches Blott and Brown.
Kipke and Courtwright took charge
of the backs.
The last part of the practice was
spent not so much in punting practice
but in working the backs at blocking
out the opposition from interfering
with the kicker, with catching and
running back punts, forming inter-
ference and so on. Likewise the op-
posite side of the game was stressed
including work in getting down under
punts, hurrying the kicker and block-
ing kicks.
Coach Wieman also posted the fol-
lowing list of fifty-six candidates, who
will report regularly for practice on
the Varsity squard:

HUBBARD BREAKS
BROAD JUMP MARK

OPEN PLA Y THUPSDAY
Golf competition for the fall will be
ushered in Thursday and Friday
when all golfers on the campus are
invited to play an 18-hole qualifying
round over the Ann Arbor golf course
preliminary to play for the annual
Varsity championship trophy.
After the qualifying round, Direc-
tors Wells and Trueblood will an-
nounce 16 men who will have playing
rights at the Ann Arbo~r club, and who
play for the trophy. In the 16 will
be included all of the "M" men, and
the Athletic association .has agreed
with the golf enthusiasts to pay for
10 of the memberships as designated
by the directors.
Beginning today, the Ann Arbor:
course will on Tuesday and Wednes-
day every week be opened to students
who can play a fairly good game--
approximately 82 or 83 over a 6,000
yard course. This requisite has been
set, Wells said, so that the course will
not be too full of mediocre players on
these two days which virtually will be
student days.
Yesterday's Results
Yesterday's games found the Giants
tightening the National League race
by defeating the Cincinnati Reds in
a nip and tuck affair, while thek Pitts-
burgh Pirates were being shut out by,
'Dazzy Vance with six hits. McGraw's
team is now but three and a half
games behind the Pirates.
The Giants got six runs in the fourth
inning and took a lead which was
never cut off, though perilously ap-
proached. Oincinnati made no less
than four errors which materially
helped the Giants as did home runs
by Terry and Lindstrom.
Chicago, with the exGiant and Cin-
cinnati pitcher, Art Nehf, in the box,
shut out the Braves who are in the
midst of a bad slump. Nehf held the
Braves to six hits ,,while his mates
gave him errorless support.
Brooklyn sprang a big upset by tip-
ping the Pirates in a close game, 3-0.
Vance gave the Corsairs six hits, while
Hill, his opponent held the Dodgers
to seven blows. Neither team made an
error. Brooklyn's victory snapped the
Pirates' long winning streak.
St. Louis went on a hitting rampage
against the Phillies and countered 14
hits, including a homer by Jim Bot-
tomley.

Courtwright Named
O n Coaching .Stat~
Raymond O. Courtwright, brmer
University of Oklahoma athlete, hgs
been. named assistant director of
athletics by the university board in
control of athletics. Courtwright is
the only addition to the 1926 Varsity
football coaching staff, replacing
Harvey Emery, who has been named
assistant dean of students.
Coach Courtwright is a graduate of
the University of Oklahoma where lie
starred in football, baseball, basket-
hall, and track. For three seasons,
1911, 1912, and 1913, he was selected
as one of the half backs on the myth-
ical all-western football team. In ad-
dition to his remarkable work in
athletics, Courtwright made an ex-
cellent record as a student, making
Phi Beta Kappa and Phi Kappa Phi,
national honorary fraternities.
Besides his degree from the Uni-
versity of Oklahoma, Coach Court-
wright holds a special certificate from
the University of Illinois summer
school for athletic coaches. He is
also a graduate of Coach Yost's two-
year coaching course and similar
courses offered by Coach Rockne of
Notre Dame, Smith of California and
Dobie of Cornell.
Before coming to Michigan Court-
wright was director and coach of
athletics at University Prep school at
Tonajawa, Okla., where his team won
the undefeated prep school champion-
ship of Oklahoma in 1914. For four
years he served as coach at Kansas
State Teachers College and five years
as director of athletics at the n i-
versify of Nevada. Under his dire-
tion Nevada football teams won 24,
lost only three, and tied five games
with teams of its class, besides win-
ning the Pacific coast basketball title
in 1921.
For the past three seasons Coach
Courtwright has been coaching at the
Colorado School of Mines.

DeHart Hubbard
Former Michigan track star, who
broke his own world's record in the
running broad jump by leaping 26
feet 2/ inches in the recreational
meet in Cincinnati last Saturday. He
also ran the 100 yard lash in 9 3/5
seconds, during the same meet, a re-
markable performance for one day.
Hubbard set his former record of
25 feet 10 7/8 inches on June 13, 1925
in the National Intercollegiate meet
at Chicago. It was on his last jump
as a member of a Maize and Blue track
team that Hubbard surpassed the
mark of Robert LeGendre, thus bring-
ing his collegiate career to a spectacu-
lar climax.

material while it may handicap the
coaches in selecting a first string
eleven.
In the backfield the question of se-
lection from a number of good backs
is most difficult. In addition to the
men named as quarterback aspirants
there are Gilbert, Geistert, Riih, Bab-
cock and Cook for the halves and Ful-
ler, Gembis, Schwarze, and others for
fullback. Also ' any one the quarters
may gain a place at half.
While the guards are uncertain, the
ends and center seem well taken care
of along with the tackles. At end, Cap-
tain Oosterbaan will have two most
capable understudies in Taylor and
Nyland. Nyland saw service in the sec-
ond Minnesota game last season while
Taylor, a sophomore, won the Chicago!
Alumni Trophy in the spring football
practice.
Although last year's center, Trus-
kowski, is ineligible, the pivot position
seems fairly certain to be well taken
care of. Thisted, an understudy of Bob
Brown two years ago, is back and
showing up well, but is far from as-
sured of the place since Bdvard of last
fall's freshmen is also doing well.
Work and time seem to be the only
answer to the question, "What will
Michigan do in the Conference this
season?" but one thing seems fairly
sure-that the Wolverines will give a
good account of themselves.
Stormy weather is almost certain
with such a schedule as Michigan
faces, however, with Illinois, Ohio
State and Chicago not to mention suc-
cessive games against Navy and Min-
nesota. It is almost impossible ;for a
team to stay keyed to top pitch all
season, but that is the task confront-
ing the Wolverines and which they are
attempting to complete.
