DETROIT OLYMPA, Feb. 28.-
Scoring three goals in the first period,
Michigan's hockey team defeated Wis-
consin, 3-1, here last night, achieving
its first Big Ten victory of the sea-
son in the last Conference game for
both teams.
Captain Maney, Nygord, and Fisher
bore the brunt of the Wolverine at-
tack, with Bryant also an important
factor. Miklejohn and Kruger, be-
spectacled Badger forwards, were the
outstanding Wisconsin puckmen.
Steve Jones, Michigan goalie, play-
ing his last Big Ten game, per-
formed brilliantly, being credited with
22 stops. Mitchell, Wisconsin captain,
made 23 stops. In the opening period
the Wolverines penetrated the lanky
Badger defense duet, Carrier and
Ma'son, to tally three times.
Wisconsin's only score was made by
Mason unassisted on a long shot in the
seconld period. Play was particularly
rough in the last period.
Summary:
MIcligan .................3 0 0-3
Wisconsin...............0 1 0-1
Goals-Michigan Hart, Nygord,

FISHER CUTS NUMBER
OF BALL CANDIDATES
With the opening of the baseball
seasononly a month off, Coach Ray
L. Fisher is drilling the Michigan
squad at - top speed in an effort to
present a formidable line-up agains
rivals on the southern trip and the
opponents to be met when the West-
ern Conference championship is
started.
Coach Fisher reduced the (squad
yesterday to 'the limited number of
players to be carried through the
season and has divided the remraining
men into two groups, one composed
o veterans and the other of new
candidates. The cut makes it possi-
ble for Cach Fisher to give greater
individual attention to each player.
Batting drills have been in pro-
gress for the last several days, and
Fisher is pleased with the favorable
showing made by the batters, espec-
ially Wientraub, Morse, Corriden,
and Kelliher.
Though infield and outfield prac-
tice has not been permitted because
of the basketball court, Coach Fish-
cr is assured that he will have a
fine defensive team this year. The
same infielders who performed cre-
ditably last year will be availbld
for service this year. Oosterban is
a sure fixture at first bae, Morse
at second; Cat. Loos at shortstop,
and Wienziraub at the hot corner.
There are several promt9sing in-
fielders on the squad at present, but
it is doubtful if any of them will
press the veterans fo;r the regular
berths on the nine. A merry bat-
tie, however, is expected among the
outfield candidates, where Corriden.
hard hitting left fielder, seems to be
assured of his old post.
ST. LOUIS - With the signing of
Jim Bottomley, Flint Rhem remains

In Sensational Encounter, 41-40
A rather easy day, the luil before
the closing rush of the season this
coming week-end, wa-,7 the reward
reaped by th, Wolverine basketball
squad yesterday afternoon following
the 45-39 win over troublesome Ohio.
Most outstanding in the Ohio tussle
was the fact that the same five men
who started against the Buckeyes
were on the floor when the g*un
cracked to end the affair. This is the
first time this season that the Wol-
verines have played through an en-
tire contest without a- substitution.
Inability to strike upon a regular
quintet Iwhich could be depended on
has been one of the most perp!exing,
if not the greatest, problems Coach
George Veenker has had to face in
his first assignment at the helm.
Further, the inconsistency of several
members of the squad added to the
difficulty of the problem.
With six victories and four defeat's
the Wolverines have dropped their
annual role of championship contend-
ers for the present and in the remain-
ing two games on their schedule will
transfer their activities to champion
making. Indiana and Wisconsin, two
of the teams which have lost but two
games so far, must facie the Wolver-
ines Saturday and Monday; defeat's
for either or both 'of the leaders would
!probably mean "curtains."
I But Iowa, too, insists on a share in
moulding a 1928 champion for the Con-
i Terence though not considered so
formidable an obstacle as the Wol-
verines. Monday night saw the
Hawks lose to Indiana, but before the
season ends they will have a chance
to 'spoil chances for both Purdue and
Wisconsin.

I Brooklyn is one of the worst suf
Iferers with Dazzy Vance and Arnold
Statz reported unsignt;d. While still
standing firm in his demands, Vance
is working out daily with the Robins
and club officials 'say they expect to
reach an agreement. Statz is asking
for an increased salary and a bonus
for a .300 batting average, which av-
erage was a rarity in the Robin line-
up.
Waite Hoyt, who has not yet signed
with the Yankees, is in Hot Springs
getting into condition for the day he
and Ed Barrow can agree. The only
other Yankee holdout is Tony Laz- "
zeri who maintains complete silence.
The Giants still are without the
services of pitchers Vic Aldridge, re-
cently acquired from Pittsburgh, and
Jess Doyle, this in spite of Manager
McGraw's ultimatums.

Bennie Oosterbaan, star Wolverine

Michigan ace the lead after he had

and two losses, stands next in the
