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.

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.

Leaders Defeat "B" Fife 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 EVANSTON - Leland; Stanford's crack swimming team will in-lade the Northwestern pool on April 7. The l two teams met only once bel'or"e, in 1924, Northwestern winning. 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.

Whila Michigan was defeating Ohio, the Indiana and Purdue fives, by vir- tue of wins over Iowa and Minnesota, retained the joint option on first- place. place.
