F BUCKEYE PLAYS USED IN DUM'MYSCRIMMAE brills In Tackling And Other De- fense Tactics Take Up Most Of Practice Session RICH SHIFTED TO FULL Further drilling in tackling top- ped off by a dummy scrimmage with a freshman eleven using Ohio State formations marked the prac- tice of the varsity squad yesterday. A reorganization of the varsity backfield was indicated during the session with the freshmen since Straub was at quarter, Rich at full, and Totzke and Wheeler at halves. This combination may possibly add the speed so badly needed in the Wolverine offense. Practice Defense Tactics Save for a brief period devoted to running through plays, the ma- jor portion of the practice was de- voted to defensive tactics. The squad was split up, Blott taking the linesmen, Wieman the backs and Veenker the ends and each section was put through a strenuous work- out with freshman backs offering themselves as tackling dummies. For the most part the tackling was clean and hard, only a few of the first year ball carriers getting away successfully. The ends were also treated to a forward passing drill, Bennie Oosterbaan hurling the leather to them. Captain Rich was included in this drill. Gembis Place Kicks Gembis started his practice with a long place kicking drill. He fell short most of the time when on the 45-yard marker but was booting the oval through the uprights with fair consistency from a point five yards nearer the posts. The change in the varsity back- field was revealed when the squad1 (Continued on Page 7) + VARSITY HARRIERS WORK OUT FOR LIEa LAST TRtIAL BEFORE BADGER MEETIIR YtP Members of Coach Stephen A.

Thence they will proceed over a 31%2 mile rectangular route, finish- ing at a point beyond the start near the University links. Coach Farrell will select the 10 men to run Oct. 20 and to oppose the Badgers Oct. 27 on the basis of their showing in the previous trial runs and in practice.

Conference. L,; will be the twenty- i 35 MEN REPORT FOR FIRST CAGEPRACTICE Football Keeps Many Lettermen From Practice As Coach Veenker Issues Call fit meeting of the tio senoois on the gridiron. This series of traditional en- counters dates back to 1897 when the Wolverines defeated the Buckeyes, 36-0.. From 1901 until 1912 the teams played an unbroken succession of games, Michigan winning all of them, Iexcept that of 1910 which end- ed in a 3-3 tie. The rivalry was temporairly sus- pended between 1912 and 1917, but it was renewed the following fall, Michigan winning her fourteenth victory over the Buckeyes, 14-0. Ohio enjoyed a period of su- premacy for the next three seasons, winning the games played in 1919, 1920, and 1921 by scores of 14-3, 14-7, and 14-0 respectively. The Buckeye-Wolverine battle of 1921 when the fleet Johnny Stew- art, Scarlet and Grey halfback, raced to two touchdowns has been the only occasion on which Ohio has held a Michigan team scoreless, while the Wolverines have perfor- med the feat in 14 of the 24 games. Of the 24 games played' thus far, Michigan has won 20, Ohio State 3, and one 'resulted in a tie. Michigan's largest margin was in the game of 1903 when the Wolverines piled up a count of 86-0. Another point of interest in the traditional rivalry is the fact that six seasons ago the Wolverines dedicated the mam- moth double-decked stadium at Columbus, and last year the Buckeyes helped in the offical opening of the new Michigan bowl. By a strange turn of fate, the Maize and Blue hold the distinc- tion of having won both dedicatory struggles, Harry Kipke and his mates breaking Ohio's string of three successive wins by taking the game of 1922, 19-0, while Capt. Bennie Oosterbaan led his team to a 21-0 victory last year. Reports from Columbus in- dicate that the Bucks are tak- ing, the coming game very seriously despite the fact that football followers concede them the best chance of downing the Wolverines since the dedica- tion of their Memorial stadium in 1922. Like the Wolverines, the Buck- eyes will drill for the coming con- test behind barred gates all week.

Washington I I "B" MEN OUT FOR SQUAD Over thirty-five men turned out for the first Basketball practice of the season Monday night'in Water- man gymnasium, according to Head Coach George Veenker. Coaches Oosterbaan and Cappon will assist Coach Veenker with the Varsity cquintet. Owing to the fact that several of the veteran cagemen are out for football, only two of the four let- termen again eligible to compete will be seen in basketball togs be- fore the gridiron season closes. Danny Rose appeared at the first meeting, while Bob Chapman, 1927 center, is expected out as soon as a blistered foot heals. Captain McCoy and Orwig, two more regulars, from last year's five, are at present busy with football, as are Del Whittle, a former sub- stitute, and Truskowski, who is counted on to fill one of the posi- tions left vacant by the graduation of O'o ,1t er b a a n, Harrigan, and Gawne. Draveling, big sophomore end, is expected to make a strong bid for a regular place on the team. Practically the entire 1927 "B" team appeared on the floor Mon- day.
