IL BRILLIANT RUNNER Jack Wheeler, 31E, was elected the most valuable man on the 1930 Michigan Varsity football team yes- terdlay noon when the team had its picture taken. Wheeler, a Bay City product, has won his letter at Mich- igan for the last three years, but has not been accounted a regular until this season. During hia~e year of play at right halfback, however, Wheeler has established himself firmly in the ranks of Michigan's great by virtue of his brilliant open field running and his ability to knock down passes. At the begnnn g of hi gridiron; career here Wheelr was the sec- ond string quarterback, and in fat held that post during' the first two games of the season just finished. :However, he gave such an exhibi- tion of running that they had to make a place for him on the Var- sity, and how he filled this posi- tion is best told by Harvard and Minnesota. Stars Against Harvard. Playing a steady, but not out-r standing game all season until the Crimson set-to at Cambridge, Wheeler cut loose during the fourth quarter and left the imprint of his cleated shoes all over the Soldier's " :Meld stadium on the banks of the Charles River. The next week against Minnesota he left these same footprints smart- ing on the Minnesota Gophers after he romped through their whole team for a touchdown on one of Munn's punts, and then againl nearly brake away late in the game on another kick. The Maroons were watchingt Wheeler closely last week, but even< then could not -stop him from gain- . ing consist 'rtly.t Should too much tress be placedE on his offensive brilliance, it is] worthy of mention that he was the rnost capable defense man against passes on the entire squad. Com- pleted tosses were few in his tern- tory, and while knocking d o wnl passes was his strongest defensivea asset, the gains which were madet by the opposition around the ends which he guarded were just as few. Run Beats Gophers. This is the last year Jack Wheel- er will wear the Maize and Blue of Michigan, but his run against Mn- nesota which netted the only towachdown of the game will long be remembered by the spectators as one of the most dramatic moments of the entire season. Wheeler and Captain -Sirzlal, teamed at the halfback pos s, ,proved to be an excellent combina- tion both on the defensive and of- fensive. Simral, besides being an-e other fine tackler and pass inter- cepter, is a blocker of exepional ability and was used to clear the path for Wheeler's runs. TEAMTOE SLI T Yearling Squ id Will be.

MATERIAL IS PROMISING Coach Ken D;oherty will select two teams from the- freshmen . in- door ,track aspirants that will form. the basis of competition during the coming season, he announced last night. Freshmen trackmen have been working out since the midde, of October and Coach Doherty is high- ly satisfied with the quality of work done thus far in the season. How- ever he hopes, now that football season is over, that more freshmen twill report. ie specially empha- sized that previous experience is unnecessary. Workout Every Day. Workouts have been changed from three times a week to every afternoon in Yost field house. Fundamental training in the diff- erent track events have been 'fea- tured and the men are coming [ along at a fast rate. Unofficial 'trials have been held among the freshmen and Coach Doherty will continue these trials in the different events throughout this week and the first part- of next. in the 50-yard clash event Doner placed first with the good time of 5:8. Skebelsky, Kahn, MeLellan, and Bradley placed in the next four positions respectively. Ren- wick, a junior, but his first year on the campus, did not run in this trial, although Coach Doherty ex- pressed the opinion that he is the fastest man in this event. jumpers Vec:elomi In the high jump trials, Trybys- zewski, Moisio, Mu~pniy, Wilson, and McIntyre jumped over the 5 foot 3 inches bar. Coach Doherty is satisfied with this result as many of the mien have never jumped before coming to Michigan. Other men1 are developing 'fast in this event.

IRISH-ARM Y GAME, RENEWS RIVALRY Intersectional Gridiron Classic to Draw Record Gate. (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Nov. 25.-One of the oldest and most interesting inter- sectional gridiron rivalries-Notre Dame and the Army-will be/re- newed on Soldier Field Saturday, probably before the biggest attend- ance of the season. At the rate tickets are going, there are anticipation of a crowd of between 110,000 and 120,000 which would rank second only to the record attendance of 123,000 established last season when the Irish defeated Southern California, 13 to 12, in the same stadium. The rivalry has endured, with only one interruption for 13 years,I and has been regarded by Notre, Dame as the high spot of its sched- ule. When the Army and Navy had their falling-out, the contest as- sumed a similar importance at West Point.
