1z 1t ~IAL UALHLS [E TO PERFECT DEFENSE spfartans Show Need .of Drill Against Forward IPasing Attack in ~ Sa:!rday Gamine WIN FIRST TWO CONTESTS With ,victories over Kalamazoo and Ohio university to their credit, the' Michigan State football squad is drill- ing intensively to prefect a defense that wll curb the forward passing at- tack which they will probably encoun- ter in, their annual struggle with the Wolvdrines Saturday in the new Mich- iga;stpdium. In the first contest of the season with Kalamazoo the Spartan machine failed to function smoothly and the Geen and White had difficulty in re- pulsing the invaders, 12-0. A great number of the men were playing their first game of college fooball. Team Shows Improvement With a week's practice to correct1 the many weakenesses which the com- paratively inexperienced team (i- played In the Kalamazoo contest, Coach Young and his assistants start- ed a team against Ohio university last Saturday that showed improvement in every denartment of the game anl handed the invading eleven a 27-0 d- feat. . In the Ohio university game, the Spartans' noticeable weakness was in their defense against the invaders' forward passing attack. The Ohio team attempted 40 passes and com- pleted 12, while Michigan State play- ers intercepted eight. It is for this reason that the defense against passes is coming in for so much attention in this week's drills. Despite the fact that the team has already played two contests, Johnny Anderson, veteran end, is the only member of the squad who is not ex- pected to be available for Saturday's game. The backfield ranks have been' considerably strengthened by the ad- diction of Schau, sophomore fullback candidate from Indiana, who has been but since early season' practice. Lineup Is Undecided. The composition of the Spartan backfleld has not been definitely de- termined and the coaches have trie a nuniber of different combinations in the two games played thus far. T State offense is moulded around Cant. Paul Smith, triple threat star. He his proved his worth as quarterback as well as fullback, his regular posi- tion. Deacon and Dickeson are the bther promising quarterback candi- dates. Schaui can be used either at full or as a halfback, while Kurrla and Wilson are halfbacks. With Anderson on the injured list, Drew, Christensen, Crall, and Iorn- beck form the list of ends. Ferrari anid Joslin are the outstanding tackle prospects, although Kanitz is fast and has shown real ability. Grimes, Hitchings and Moeller appear to be the best of the guards, -while Crabil and Ross are staging a pretty battle for the pivot position. DRIVES OUT FIRST- RUN FOR YANKEES 2x7s Western Stampede To Feature Opening Of Athletic Arena (By Associated Press) DETROIT, Oct. 5.--Workmen are! laboring night and day here to com- plete the new Olympia athletic arena, the home of the Detroit Hockey club, and the location for several large indoor events to be held this winter. The formal opening of the arena is scheduled for October 15, with the Detroit Stampede and Rodeo, under the auspices of the hockey club. The 1928 Republican National con-. vention has been invited to use theI as its convention hall in Detroit, and efforts have been made to secure the convention here for meetings in the arena, the largest hall under cover in the city. Mostofy'the steel and cement work has been completed, and the work of placing the 10,200 seats is now under way. Peter Welcvh, Calgary, Alberta, manager of the rodeo to be held here October 15 for several days, announc- ed that the location is ideal for a fast rodeo event. Before the wild steers, horses, and cows, of which 320 will be shilpped to Detroit for the event, can be turned into the rink, at least seven inches of dirt will hayv to be added, Welch said. This will constitute the only preparation nec- essary to stage the rodeo. At least $40,000 in prizes has-been set up for distribution to those who will take part in the rodeo. . Following the rodeo the arena will be opened for several sporting events, including the winter hockey matches.

Hoffman, president of Ohio Wesleyan university, who witnessed' Saturday's game in the new stadium, Tuesday issued the following state- ment: "I was a visitor over Saturday at= Ann Arbor to witness the gamebe- tween Michigan and Wesleyan, and I wish to express at the earliest oppor- tunity the courtesy and gentlemanly conduct of the players on the Michi- gan team. It was very gratifying to every lover of the sport to see such fine feeling on the 'part of a large school toward a smaller one, "While the score was not to my satisfaction, naturally, yet I enjoyed every minute of the game. You have 'a wonderful stadium. It is a marvel of perfect technique and the closeness of the spectator to the game.' The first half I was in the press box. I saw,the game with perfect ease and perfect distinctness. The second half I went over and sat with our Wes- leya men, and that position was very advantageous. That is the feature of; your stadium, which pleased me .so very much. The spectators are so close to the players." SYRACUSE-Syracuse university cross country team will run in five meets this season.
