BOOTH SET' FOR CA(E SEASON With the game with Michiganm State only two days away, Coach George Veenker sent his Wolver- ine basketball squad through a long offensive and defensive work-> out yesterday in Yost Field House, finally pitting the first string line- up against a team of substitutes, in a scrimmage session.- Although they started slowly the regulars soon got into the swing of things to count five baskets in rapid succession on only five at- tempts. From that time on they pulled steadily away from the sec- ond stringers to outclass them in k every department of play.' Lineup Remains Same.4 Apparently, from his selections of{ a starting lineup yesterday, Coach Veenker will use the same team that faced Western State NormalY college last Saturday in the game this week against the Spartans. Weiss and Eveland were again at the forward positions, Daniels Associated Press Photo jumped center, and Altenhoff and Albie Booth, Eli 1931 gridiron captain, and-perennial Yale athlete Shaw took care of the guard posts. 1 is shown here in basketball togs as he appeared for practice in the Blue Hudson and Williamson probably gymnasium.

Announcement of the complete schedule for the Michigan wrestling team was made by Cdach Cliff Keen yesterday. One date is still tenta- tive but it will probably be made final by the end of the week. Con- sisting of eight meets in all, the schedule includes three outside meets, three conference dual meets, the East-West and the Conference meets. The Wolverine grapplers will have plenty to do. West Virginia will take on the Michigan squad here Jan. 10 for the first meet. The following w e e k there is a tentative meet with Ohio University at the Buckeye home. January 24 will see the wrestling team from Michigan State take on the Wolverines here for the last meet until the final examinations are over and the second semester started. Ohio First Conference Meet. The next meet will be February, 14 when Michigan goes against its first conference opponent. It will be held here and the Ohio State grap- plers will furnish the opposition. The following week Indiana comes here to try their hands at the Wol- verines. The end of the month, February 28, sees Northwestern in action on the Michigan mat. Then if Michigan wins in its divi- sion, the Wolverines will wrestle the ,winners of the other division in the annual East-West meet March 7. The season comes to a close with the Conference meet at Chicago March 14. Practice Sessions Stiffer. In view of the above schedule, Coach Keen gave him men a stiff practice session yesterday, for the Wolverines will have to develop considerably better than they are now before they can go up against (Continues on Page 7) Performanicc of Contestants Is Satisfactory o Coach Ken Doherty. Yearling thinclads got their first taste of real collegiate action yes- terday afternoon as the first fresh - man track meet of the season got under way at Yost field house under the direction of Coach Ken Doher- ty. Six track events were run off and although most of the times chalked up were nothing out of the ordinary, Coach Doherty said that they were fairly satisfe tory con- sidering the condition of most of the entrants.e The 50-yard sprint was by far the most exciting of the events with Don Renwick turning in the good time of :5 three-fifths to take the finals. Renwick's showing was extraordinary considering the fact that this is the first time he has ever run this event. HeE easily took the first heat with a lead of several feet over his nearest competitor, Heston, and also led in the semi- final heat. The final sprint was much closer, with little to choose between Renwick and Doner for first honors. Heston took third place in the finals.e Doner also made a fine showing in this first meet, running second in the sprint and taking the sec- ond position in the gruelling 330- yard run. Younger took an easy first in this event in the mediocre time of :34.9. Lennen took the third position. ec McDowell captured the 65-yard high hurdles which resulted in a three cornered competition after Garrison had taken a nasty spil on the second hurdle. Eldred and Gravelle followed McDowell in close Thero hurdles was here esn shoe with first place in the time f on afthr taking a third osition in the sprnts. Randall took second honors in the low hurdles and B shnewih d frthpaei the tm Bradley garnered the third position laurels. McManus sort of upset the pre- dictions when he took an easy first position in the one and one-quarter mile run, winning by thirty yards over Alix, freshman cross country winner. Dixon took the third posi- tion in this event. The time was (Continued on Page 7) I .... I mac. .;z. Varsity Encounters Unexpected Opposition° in Detroit Yacht Club Squad. Coach Matt Mann's Varsity swim- mers found their stiffest competi- tion thus far this season in a meet Tuesday night at the Detroit Yacht Club, when they were hard pressed to take the decision, 35-29. As an added feature of the contest the majority of the Yacht Club swim- mers were former Michigan men, having participated in Conference meets for the Wolverines many times in recent years. The performance of the Varsity as a whole was rather disappoint- ing to Coach Mann, who has ex- pected his team to take the majori- ty of their meets by a large margin. A few veterans remain from last year and with the addition a host of sophomores who last season composed one of the greatest fresh- man tank squads that Michigan has seen, the prospects have been exceedingly bright for a champion- ship team. But thus far the Wol- verines have failed to show the anticipated class. Wolves Off to Slow Start. In the opening event of the Mich- igan-Detroit Yacht Club encounter the Wolverines got off to a bad start, by finishing second to the fast quartet of Hosmer, Nevins, Curtis, and Walaitas, who turned in a time of 1:38 in the relay. Hosmer and Walaitas were members of the 1930 Maize and Blue relay team that broke the world's record in a dual meet with Northwestern. The Michigan team was composed of Marcus, Klintworth, Smith, and Kennedy. Schmeiler, Wolverine all-around flash, stopped the Yacht Club ad- vance in the next event, however, by covering the 200 yai ds of the breast stroke race in 2:39, to defeat McClellan of the Yacht Club and Lemak of the Wolves. In the 50- yard sprint Marcus and Fenske an- nexed first and third places respec- tively to gain six more points for the invaders. Marcus' time was 25.2 seconds. Two Michigan men, Kennedy and Ladd finished first and second in the quarter mile event for eight points, with the winner doing the 440 yards in 25.2 Captain Valentine (Continued on Page 7) STAR AT CENTEFRI' T'A L TNET him to tak-e a more active part in the games.

In the first game and in the practice sessions to date Norm Daniels has been impressive at the center position, so that now it looks as if the tip-off job were definitely his. His scoring ability is as good as that of anyone else on the squad, and his capable guarding will keep any of his opponents from rolling up a large score against him. Al- though Daniels has been unable to get the jump on Garner with any regularity, the capable work of re- covering the ball by the other four men has in a large measure over- (Continued on Page 7) °a M.ews Interclass Volley Ball.
