six THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAY, OCTOBER, 12, 1928 VARSITY PERFECTS DEFENSE AGAINST INDIANA i PLAYS FRESHMAN TEA'M TRIESI HOOS1ER FORMATIONS Regulars Practice Defense Against Crimson Shift And Forward Passing Attack MC BRIDE ISTRANSFERRED In preparation for the Indiana game tomorrow, Coach Tad Wie- man put his gridiron charges through a long drill in the new stadium yesterday afternoon. A warn, October sun did not improve the practice conditions, so regular scrimmage was dispensed with by the coaches. A freshman eleven in red jersies and directed by Coach Veenker went through several of the In- diana plays against the Varsity. The "Hoosiers" gave the Wolverine regulars an opportunity to break up their shift formations, which resembled the famed Minnesota shift of former days. Passing Defense Weak Coach Wieman spent a great deal of time perfecting the Michigan pass defense, to guard against the Hoosier aerial attack. The showing of the Wolverines against Ohio Wesleyan passes last Saturday, was. far from satisfactory. The Bat- tling Bishops completed nearly half their tosses, gaining 41 yards by the aerial route. The coaches devoted a short session to kicking off and receiving the ball. An intimation of tomorrow's line- J up was gained from the personnel' of the team that was drilled on defense against the Indiana plays. Draveling and Truskowski were at the ends, Pommerening and Wil- liams at the tackles, Squier and Cragin at the guard posts, with Al Bovard at center. Totzke, Whittle, May Start The backfield that broke up the Hoosier pass plays consisted of Captain Rich, Gembis, Whitttle and Totzke. Whittle was later replaced by Straub in the lineup, as it was apparent that he had not fully re- covered from the leg injury he re- ceived in ,the Mount Union game. Thus the quarterback position seems to be still in doubt. It is likely, however, that Totzke will receive the punting assignment against Indiana. McBride, formerly of the B squad, appeared with the Varsity in the stadium, making another quarter- back available. Boden was in uni- form, but did not get the call at end, while Poe, also handicapped by injuries, spent more of the time on the sidelines. j BASKETBALL MEN ASKED I TO RkPORT TO VEENKERj All candidates for the Var- sity basketball squad are re- quested to meet at 7:30 o'clock I Monday night in WatermanI I gymnasium. Each man mustj j bring his own equipment. j George Veenker, Coach.j Iowa Coaches Drlve Team As Game With Chicago Draws Near (Special To The Daily) IOWA CITY, Oct. 11.-Speed and resourcefulness in linemen's play, quick-forming interference which will ease the way of the ball-car- riers, and better punting are foot-? ball assests which Hawkeye coaches1 are laboring to bring forth among University of Iowa players. Behind locked gates the drills are proceeding, for Saturday brings the Chicago game on Stagg field, and the opening of the Western conference season. Just average form was displayed against Monmouth last Saturday, when the Hawkeyes, not exerting themselves over-much, lagged through to a 26 to 0 victory. It was the same winning margin as 1927's first game, also with Mon- mouth. The fear that -weight would di- minish the speed of the line was realized when the smaller colle- gians at times outcharged the Iowa veterans-Schleusner and Jessen, tackles; Westra and Rob- erts, guards; and Captain Brown, center. Stories of the astounding im- provement of Chicago were brought back by Sam Barry, Iowa's scout, who said the the Maroons exhibi- ted slashing drive and alert line play in their 47 to 0 victory over Wyoming. The showing of the fast Maroon backs was helped, however, by the acknowledged weakness of the /Cowboy tackles and ends. Cross-Country Team To Trek Full Route Candidates for the cross-country team will engage in another prac- tice run at 11 o'clock Saturday morning. , A three and one-half mile trek is scheduled, the longest of any of the previous runs. The squad will follow the usual route leaving Yost field house and con-1 cluding the run at the entrance of the Ann Arbor gold club course. 4, 51 H I iliiIIllI f11 111111111111114 111111111I 1 1111 311111 111 t11111 ' GRID B IT S By Morris Quinn =a[Il 111111 H111111[ 11111111111111111111[lllilllH I iH( i I lllllltll lililili ti11111111 Reports from Bloomington indi- compared to 77 for the Irish cate that Coach Pat Page has by rushing; and made 97 yards such a surplus of capable grid can- by passing to Notre Dame's didates that he is having trouble 119. in deciding just which 11 members of the squad merit the distinction The explanation for 'Wisconsin's of being called the "A" team. 22-6 victory is to be found in the fact that the Rocknemen were In the first double-header of guilty of six costly fumbles five of the season with Indiana State which were recovered by Badger Normal and Wabash college, players. three of them being even- the Hoosier coach used a total tually converted into touchdowns. of 55 men, many of the more promising sophomores taking One of the most glaring ex- part in both games. amples of the poor play of the TRYOUTS ARE NEEDED FOR IBASKETBALLMANAGER H O ASIEDS-hPAoE so and second semester freshmen wishing to try out for basketball manager Sophomores Will Replace Veterans I should report at 7:00 o'clock In Indiana Lineup Against Monday night in Waterman Michigan Saturday gymnasium.

PLY NALL-CAPU TLRNEY IS REUED Singles Matches Advance Rapidly As Five Players Reach Quarter Final Round PREP STARS WILL CLASM All campus tennis although hin- dered by inclement weather, iS again gaining momentum and hope is entertained by the intra- mural department that final round play in both doubles and singles will be completed by the middle of next week. Singles are advancing a bit more rapidly than the doubles with five players, Nelson, Reindel, Dusen- bury, Beal, and Cole already in the quarter final round. In third round play Roethke, Gudelsky, Brace, Ryan, Clarke, Hipsh, Kimball, Lhe- vinne, Leonard and Kinney remain. Three teams nave reached the third round in the doubles compe- tition, the Kimball-Phelps, Nelson- Dusenbury, and Harris-Kaufman combinations. The Indiana roster includes no' less than 24 letter men and 19 nu- meral winners from last year's freshman squad. Incidentally ru- mor has it that a number of the outstanding sophomores are cer- tain to be in the opening lineup tomorrow. Last week, while the first team was eking out a 10-7 vic- tory over Oklahoma University, the second stringers were put- ting up a game battle at Iowa City, losing by the narrow margin of 13-6, largely because a large number of Hawkeye regulars were used against them rather than against Mon- mouth, the Hawks' other op- ponent in the doubleheader. Coach Pat Page has built his 1928 machine around four seniors who have starred on Hoosier elev- ens for the past three years, Cap- tains Chuck Bennett and Rags Matthew, Clare Randolph and Paul Harrell. Branch McCracken, ex- perienced end, is another one of the team's mainstays. . Randolph and Matthew at center and guard posts form the nucleus of the powerful forward wall, with McCracken a certain starter at one of the end positions. Harrell will call signals as well as handling the punting assignment while Ben- nett will work at one halfback position.l An examination of the statistics of Wisconsin's 22-6 victory overj Coach Knute Rockne's Fighting Irish reveal a number of very sig- nificant and interesting facts. For. example, in attaining their victory the Badgers made only one first down to 11 for Notre Dame; gained 48 yards. Irish occurred in the third quarter, when Morrissey, stand- ing on -his own goal line, at- tempted to punt the oval, but instead missed it entirely. The ball bounced to the two yard line where Gantenbein fell on it, Wisconsin scoring on the next play. It was plays like this that found the Badger sophomores on the alert and spelled defeat for the hocknemen, giving Wisconsin re- venge for the loss sustained at the hands of The Four Horsemen just four years ago. Followers of the Junior Var- sity gridmen will have their first opportunity to see Coach Courtright's men in action to- morrow, as the game with Michigan State Normal college is slated to be played in the morning at Ypsilanti.
