WILL PLAY SIX GAMES
With the first game of the pre3-
ent season scheduled with Mount
Pleasant this Saturday, the new
Wolverine "B" team went through
its second workout yesterday under
the critical eyes of Coaches Court-
right and Keen. About twenty-
seven players reported to take part
in the practice session, but Coach
Courtright expects more men to be
out by the end of the week.
A stiff schedule of six games con-
fronts the Junior Varsity this year
with such teams as Illinois, Wis-
consin, Ohio State, Ypsilanti Nor-
mal, Mt. Pleasant Normal, . and-
Western State Normal of Kalama-
zoo slated to furnish the opposition
for the next six Saturdays. The
game this week will bring one of
the best squads on this schedule,
and with the collegians playing on
their own field Coach Courtright
I may expect strong opposition for
his trial contest.
Lineups In Doubt
Although the exact personnel of
the "B" team is as yet in doubt,
there are several men who played
with this team last year who will

Plenty of Talent
Spectators were allowed to wit-
ness the first part of the practict
while the players engaged in punt-
ing and passing drill. Joe Gembis
gave indications of a quartet of
triple threats in the Michigan
backfield when he hurled a few
passes to the receivers. Along
with Simrall, Wheeler, and Hudson,
Coach Kipke will have four mer
who can both run, kick, and pass
in the game. Such versatility i:
unusual in a backfield.
The coaches then put the teamr
through a dummy scrimmage thai
proved anything but gentle for the
linemen. Various players alter-
nated in occupying the positions or
the skeleton offense and defenseiir
an effort to familiarize themselves
with the plays. Meanwhile the
coaches stood by to correct any
faults in technique.
Wheeler Punts Well.
Wheeler 'and Simrall spent some
time in practicing punts, but the
former had more distance behind
his bgots. This may indicate that
Wheeler will do the regular kick-
ing for the Varsity, a task that he
