"It will be a long time before football will see a greater end than Ooster-
baan, whose passing, pass receiving, blocking and tackling will carry on into
the lengendary lore of the game,"-such is the tribute paid by Grantland Rice
to Michigan's great captain whom he selected for the third consecutiye time
on his all-American team, released yesterday in the Collier's magazine.

DEFINITE FORM
Only eight days remain before Michi-
gan meets her traditional rival, Michi-
gan Stag college, in the opening game
of the 1927 season, and the fight for
positions on tho Wolverine quintet
seems to have resolved itself into a
battle for the forward positions oppo-
site Oosterbaan, as the play of Rose,
a newcomer, has stamped him as the
likely starter at the vacant guard post.
While five of the new candidates are
battling merrily for the single for-
ward position, Harrigan, Oosterbaan
and McCoy appear to be assured of
their last year's berths.
McCoy will probably drop back in-
to back guard position after the tip-
off, with Harrigan taking the pivot,
while Oosterbaan will be seen in his,
accustomed place at forward.
Five of the new candidates, Raber,
Chapman, Balsamo, Bowerman and
Kanitz, are waging a close fight for
the remaining forward berth. Raber<
and Chapman are both big players,
Kanitz is above the average in stature,
while Balsamo and Bowerman are
forwards of the "pony" type.
With Harrigan and Oosterbaan ab-
sent from last night's practice, the
Blue team lined up for scrimmage
with Schroeder at center, Kanitz and
Raber, forwards, and McCoy and Rose,
guards. The Red team was composed
of Magram at center, Orwig and Han-
na, forwards, and Daniels, and Myran
guards.
Both teams showed lashes of good
floor work, but experienced difficulty
n locating the baskets. McCoy, Raber,
and Rose shared the scoring honors
for the Blues, each makipg two
baskets, while Orwig and Magram
were the offensive stars for the Reds,
the former garnering three baskets I
and the latter two.
