Ever since football began as an or-
ganized sport, Friday afternoon pre-
ceding the opening game has been
spent in drilling on kicking off and
the formation for receiving the kick-
off. The Wolverines "didn't do any-
thing different" yesterday-
Originality did show itself,
however, i" t" Coc "Wieman
had three different teams working
ou this most important phase of
the game. Grange, for the bene-,
fit of any doubting Tlomase',
demonstrated against M1ichigan
two years ago that this IS impor-
tant.
Humor was injected into the work
by Sam Babcock and Ray Baer on
getting down under the kick-off. Ray
is, weight for age, about as fast a
lineman as the Conference has. Sam
excels at running the ends, and has
the reputation for being the backfield
rabbit.
Now that they are lined up, on
the same team, Baer has decided
to show that lie is faster than
Samtmy in getting down under the
kickoffs. Honors were about

to do some of the passing and most
of the punting, and Eby, Marek and

worries almost solely to the develop-

Captain Rouse at center, Weislow,
Wolf, and Apitz are the veteran line-
men. McDonough, McKinney, Ander-

fair backfield.
WISCONSIN
As a reward for developing a titu-
lar squad at Nortwestern, Coach
Glenn Thistlethwaite has been pro-
moted to Wisconsin where George
Little needs him just about as much
as he says he does,-not. And it's
honestly a pity that Director Yost's
noted understudy, Little, has aban-
doned the coaching of the Badgers
for the more strenuous duties of ath-
letic director.
IOWA
Away out in Ioway nobody is real-
ly confident over the prospects of the
Hawkeyes who are still content to re-
member the Golden Age of Devine,
Slater, Locke, and championships.
All that is certain is simply that al-
though Cuhel made a flashy track
star, he cannot punt 35 yards reg-
ularly, and the Old Gold defense is
still weak, which may or may, not
mean anything.
