MICHIGAN TO MEET GOPHER HOCKEY TEAM TONIGHT DETROIT TO; BE -SCENE OF T"DCAME SEIEIIS - -- Minnesota ill Send Veteran Lineup Against Wolverine Pnckinen Tonight And Tomorrow AN UNCERTAIN LINEUP Minnesota's hockey team, at pres- ent a likely choice to represent the United States in its class at the Olym- pic games, will meet the Wolverine sextet in two Conference games to- night at the new Olymrpic arena in Detroit. The games will start at 8:30.i The University of Michigan band willI be at the games, and advance reports from Detroit point to a large attend- ance of Michigan alumni on both oc- casions. Tht Gopher line-up, teeming with the names of veteran hockey players at the Minnesota institution, has for- tunately been placed under the same handicap as the Wolverines, neither team having had regular practices on, ice during the past week. The Minne- sota squad was scheduled to meet Michigan State college at East Lans- ing last night. While the Gophers remained idle fog the last few days, Coach Eddie Lowry was able to take his men into Detroit over the week end and get in one good practice session, opposing a senior team from Windsor. Canadians Win Scrimmage The scrimmage ended 5 to 2 in fa- vor of the Canadians. During the prac. tice one thing definitely came to light --that Coach, Lowrey is going to slightly alter his line-up from the one that took the ice: in the Wolverines' opening game two weeks back. Shea, a new man on the Michigan squad, seems to have earned a firm hold of one of the defense positions. The problem before Coach Lowrey is deciding who will be paired with Shea. The most likely prospects for the job are Waldron; a substitute of last year, and Elliot and Joseph, sophomores. Coach Lowrey's choice will not be made known until tonight. Haney And Jones To Start Maney at center, Copeland, wing, and Jones, goal tender, are the only certain men to be in the Wolverine line-up at the opening of the game tonight. The second wing position is still a toss-up between Hart, a North Bay, Canada, boy who has impressed the coach very favorably, and Mar- shall, a reliable substitute at an.y po- sition and a player of previous Con- ference experience. The complete list of Michigan sub- stitutes who will be taken to Detroit has not been announced, but it is (Continued On Page Seven) LONG LIST OF PLAYING MANAGERS TII FENCET[RT PR PARIJAQ( ( W(T|M i(|[ IN MAJOR LEAGUES IS DWINDLING | MOR [CONS FOR FIRST MATCH | |U GMAIH REI\GL [UPFOL varsity fencrs under the tutelage ".' .5.":": i:?r:{; 1:ff:;:7::::::: ,:7[ :;:;; :y ,.37 P IE I EEE II ar '':::. .*...< .

As the curtain raiser the squad will journey to Alliance, 0., where the Mount Union eleven will furnish the opposition on Oct. 6.

Among the promising candi- dates who are pushing the first string men hard for berths tre, Kenneth Stolpman, who is adept at the foils and won the freshmen tournament in 1926. He looks like a likely candidate in this denartment of the sport. Judson is showing up exceptionally well with the epee and is assured a berth upon the second team, if not on the first. Coach Tuscon comes to Ann Arbor from Detroit on Tuesday and Saturday to put th men through their paces, while Captain Finney takes charge of the squad on the other nights of the week. Players who intend participating in class B basktba 11, which begins on February 8, will get the last oppor- tunity to take the required physical examination at the intramural office, tonight, Wednesday, and Thursday of this week. It is absolutely essential that all 'en who intend to play to fulfill the physical requirement as no one who has not complied with this rule will be allowed to play. IHOOSIERS WILL OPPOSE WEST VIRGINIA MATMEN BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Jan. 16-In- diana university's wrestling team is facing one of the strongest teams in the country here Thursday night when West Virginia invades Bloofn- ington. The eastern squad has' been a top notcher for several seasons and although both universities have at- tempted to schedule each other be- .ore, this is the first time in several years that the charts have permitted the pair to clash. Ccach Thom has been impressed wil: the excellent work of Bill Most ad . .Taylor. Moss is grappling in the heavyweight division while Tay- jor is representing Indiana in the light heavyweight class. Taylor has been a member of the squad for three years but has not been a regular member of the Varsity until this year. I The presence of Wilson, ex--Big Ten Ichamp, always kp. him in second place until this season. The gradua.- Lion of Wilson gve Taylor a chance to make good and he has done it. Moss's speed on the mat is unusual for a big man. He has a unique way Sof using his feet and at the same tie keeling his arms free for a hold. He was a member of Pat Page's foot- ball ntachine last fall. Two new men will be seen in the lineup of the Wolverme wrestling team when it meets the veteran West Virginia aggregation in the second dual meet of the season Saturday :n the field house, acerding to a n an- nouncement made yettorua, by -each Keen. Trials for the coming encounter were held yesterday to determine which of the candilates v i; repre- sent Michigan against the easterners. who are making a two meet invas en of the Western Conference, meeting Indiana as well as the Wolverines. It was definitely announced before the tryouts that Thomas, 125 pound star, will not compete in the West. Virginia, because Qf tme fact that he is devoting all of his attention to scholastic work. Kailes, an AMA and Elliott, a member of la ,t year's fresh- 'ran team, were matched to determine who should fill the vacancy, :ond the latter was victorious. Hewitt will again represent Michi- gan in the 115 pound division, 'while Captain Watson retained his 135 pound berth by winning from Dulude, lULL 1ImillII Li ii II u ItIfl I LI1HIUni UI turt all-campus champion who has been pressing him closely for the position, Sauer will again compete in his weight, the 145 pound class. It is unlikely that Warren, who wrestled at 158 pounds in the last meet, will be used against West 1i/- ginia. In case he is not, Donahoe will return to his regular division, instead of competing in the light heavyweight class, as he did against Ohio univer- sity in the first meet of the season. This arrangement necessitated a series of trials among the 175 pound andidates, with the result that Ha- ger was returned winner over Fla- jole and Carter, his leading rivals for the berth. Hager was all-campus champion in this weight last season and finalist in this season's meet. He also competed in the dual meet with Michigan State last year. George, who proved in the opening meet of the season, that he has lost none of the skill that characterized his work when he was a member of the Varsity team in 1925, will again compete in the unlimited class. Whatever the Wolverine quintet does during the remainder of the year, it certainly can be said that that team came to life with a vengeance against Indiana and played the fine ball of which it is capable, displaying real team work and a smooth combination. And when Coach Veenker was asked yesterday afternoon what he had to say, he just said, "I'm darn well pleased with the way they did Saturday," and let it go at that. Veenker realize's as does everyone else that the Hoosiers had a mighty fine ball club and that any team which beats them is extremely fortunate and also good. Indiana could just as well have been winner or loser Saturday. Among the Hoosiers there were two men who are outstanding reasons for Indiana's having a good team-Wells and Beckner. Wells, it will be remembered, was the little light-haired running guard who wore a number 5 and who was tracked by Captain Har- rigan. Wells showed an un- canny eye for the basket sinking five in all and most of these from long range. Some spectators thought his accuracy was luck rather than ability, but this is far from the fact. He has a sharp-shooter's eye for the hoop from distant points on the floor and one of the Indiana supporters who sat next to us in the Press Crows Nest got into the annoying habit of saying "two points" every time Wells got the ball-but Harrigan had some- thing to say about the number of shots he got. ale this week only WAGIIER&COT4PAH Jor ften s Aince 1&4K Art Beckner, the great forward led the Conference in scoring (Continued On Page Seven) who two ...............
