BACKFIELD IS UNCHANGED
Michigan's ends and tackles, more
han any other men on the squad,1
hold the fate of the Wolverine eleven
in its greatest of great games against
Ohio State tomorrow. Perhaps theI
effectiveness of the secondary defensel
against a traditionally strong Buck-C
sye passing attack will play a bigI
part, but the main problem is to stop
the fast running, hard hitting set ofl
Scarlet and Gray backs.
If the WN'lverines are to stop thie1
Buckeyes in their off tackle smashes,
they must have the greatest possible
cooperation and team work between1
the ends and tackles, something which
was not present at all times last
week. When Byron Eby starts to run,
he usually goes somewhere-ask any-
one who has seen him!
Badgers Slash Off Tackle ;
On all too many occasions, Crofoot,
and Rose, the Badger stars would cut
off, tackle to good advantge, and
Captain Oosterbaan's end was not,
spared. The Daily Cardinal, Wiscon-
sin student paper, says in, part, "Rose
and Crofoot slashed the Wolverne
tackles to ribbons and made the H n.
J. B. Oosterbaan, all-American end,
look remarkably like a paste diamond
in a brass setting."
It. must be admitted that this was
partially true, at least, and the Maize
and Blue line will be facing a back-
field including half a tlozen runners
like Rose and Crofoot when Ohio takes
the field. Pommerening, wonder lall
hawk though he may be, must work
hard with Captain Oosterbaan against
the Bucks.
INyland Will Start At End'
At the other end of tbe line, Her-
man Nyland will be making his debut
as a starting flankman. Nyland, just
recently recovered from an injury
himself, is filling the shoes of La-
Verne Taylor, sophomore end, who is
not to be seen in uniform again this
season.,Nyland is admittedly a fight-
er, as his showing in the Minnesota
game last November demonstrated be-
yond a doubt. He did well in his
trial workout against Wisconsin and
is set for Ohio. Playing next to him
will be the veteran Gabel-teamwork
again will be the deciding factor.
Defens.e against the running game
is not the only worry of the Wolver-
ines, however, for the Buckeyes will
have a fast moving pass attack. Grim,,
Eby, Marek, Ohsner, Hueston andi
Cory are all fast men and in all prob-
ability Coach Jack Wilce will have an
