With the University of Michigan dominating the spotlight, Coach Crowley at Michigan State is hap- py over the 13 lettermen returning to form a nucleus for another strong team. Every position will see a letter- man of last year's team returning but Coach Crowley has intimater that State's success hangs on the development of the reserve squad. Crowley invited 54 men back in an effort to fill the needed reserve positions. Quarterback will be Crowley's major first-team worry. Roger Grove, triple threat man who graduated in June, will be missed in the all-important position. Joe Ko- watch may be revamped into a quarterback from fullback. McNutt, who starred on the fresh- man eleven last season, is expected to take care of the fullback job. Bob Monnett and Eliowitz are other re- Stuxning backs who won their letters last year. Wally Weber Joins Wolverine Coaching Staff as Assistant This fall for the first time since 1926 a figure which 'had become a familiar fixture on Ferry field is missing, and in its place is that of a newcomer to the Wolverine coach- ing staff. Geogre Veenker is the man no longer seen amid the activ- ity of Michigan grid preparations, and Wally Weber is the latest addi- tion to the list of coaches. The lure of the gridiron caused Veenker, who had been head coach of basketball for three years, to transfer his connections to Iowa State where he has been appointed chief mentor of the football team. During his first year as basketball coach of the Wolverines his team won theConference championship.

For years ,sports writers and ten-3 nis critics all over the country have been bewailing the fact that the Davis Cup, the international ten- nis trophy, has rested securely on French soil despite the most de- termined onslaughts of the U. S.- invaders. , The stumbling-block for the Am- aricans in these contests has been the absence of a really outstand- ing player who could defeat the best French net star. Lacoste, the redoubtable Frenchman who first challenged Tilden's world suprem- acy in the sport, filled the bill for the Europeans during several sea- sons. With Lacoste's withdrawal because of ill health, Henri Co- chet, almost equally formidable, stepped into the ace's shoes and he has been mawing down the best players of the. United States ever since, aided by such stars as Bor- otra and Brugnon. But with the close of the Men's National tourney at Forest Hills a few weeks ago, new hope 'arises for American possession of the coveted international cup. Ellsworth Vines, a rangy 19-year-old Californian won that tournament by virtue of his defeat of Francis X. Shields, Fred Perry, and George Lott, Jr., on three successive days. Vines' play possesses that vital spark, a driving aggression, which has been lacking in the play of the (Continued on Page 10) selection.y Seeks Field General. One of the hardest jobs facing the Wildcat coach is the develop-' ment of a quarterback. This posi- tion, which was handled in fine style during the past three seasons by Lee Hanley, is wide open at present. Two men are being groom- ed for the task of signal calling. They are Al Moore and Will Lewis, two senior backs, who have per- formed as halfbacks in the past. Moore is a fine ball carrier while Lewis ranks as one of the best kickers and blockers on the squad. Four positions in the line are due to be filled with new men. The jobs left open by graduation are center, left guard and both right and left ends. These positions were handled last year by Bob Clark, center, Red Woodworth, guard and Frank Baker and Larry Oliphant, ends. All four ranked among the best at their positions in the con- ference last season, while Baker and Woodworth won all-American honors as well. Fight for Center. A trio of candidates are putting up a hard fight for the center po- (Continued on Page 1:) ing states than their p a t s 1in g strength to gain the titles. Grove Is Big Factor. "Lefty" Grove, ace left hander of the Mackmen's staff and one of the greatest southpaws of all baseball history, has been one of the biggest factors in the success of the White Elephants. In addition to the fire- ball artist Mack has George Earn- shaw and "Rube" Walberg, who have also turned in brilliant per- formances throughout the entire season. Leroy Mahaffey, in his sec- ond year in the big show, has de- veloped into a winning hurler and two veterans, Eddie Rommell and Waite Hoyt, have won their quota of games. Hoyt, purchased in mid- season from Detroit, took a new lease on life in an Athletic uniform' and has been pitching good ball. Hank McDonald, a new member of Mack's staff, has made a satisfac- tory showing in his fist year. Gabby Street has a mound staff that is even more impressive than the Athletics' array of hurling stars. Burleight Grimes, "Wild Bill" Hall- ahan, Jesse Haines, and Sylvester Johnson all are veterans who can be counted upon to turn in good' Lefty Grove showings in the series. A new- comer, Paul Derringer, has taken the National League by storm this season and appears to be one of the Redbirds' best bets on the hurling rubber. Open Dates Plentiful. What advantage the Cardinals have in the number of starting pitchers, however, is discounted in such a series as the coming fall classic. Long train hops between Philadelphia and St. Louis has nec- essitated open dates during the se- ries, so that if Connie Mack's plans do not go awry, Grove or Earnshaw can be started in every.game. Street will undoubtedly counter this move by starting only two, or at the most three, of the Cardinal moundsmen, probably Grimes, Derringer, and Hallahan. Injuries have wrecked the Phila- delphia lineup throughout the en- tire season, but indications are that the team will be in better physical (Continued on Page 13) YOUNGSTERS STAHI .G9 O R IN IGI. TORE Tommy Creavy and Denny Shute Show Golfdom's Veterans How It's Done. SARAZEN FALLS VICTIM Proof that golf is a game for young men was really prbsented when Denny Shute and Tommy. Creavy pulled away from all the veterans and old favorites of the game last week to meet in the P.G.A. finals. Gene Sarazen, Tommy Armour, Billie Burke, and Walter Hagen are a few of the fa- mous golfing names that bowed be- fore the attack of youth. Shute is only 26 years old and comes from Hudson, Ohio, but he looked good in the national open, was a candidate for the 1931 Rider cup team, and has taken several tourneys. He ~defeated two of the best, Tommy Armour and Billie Burke, and mainly with that putter of his. The latter was hard to beat and stuck until 1 up eliminated him. Creavy, who finally won the P.G.A. honors is younger yet, only 21, comes from Albany, N. Y., and had shown little of the big time performance that is expected of a champion. He avenged a defeat by Gene Sarazen three years ago when he toppled the veteran 5 and 3 to get into the finals. This unexpect- ed rise to the top was partly the result of Sarazen's unsteady game but largely the result of Tommy's par-hovering and air-tight game throughout. The final result further bears out the hypothethis of youth since 26 years went down before the play of 21 years and the former 4 to 1 shot of the semi-finals crashed through to capture the Profession- al Golfers' Association title in great style. i E. To Assist in Football. With the addition of Wally Weber to the list of coaches, Michigan has ,added another former Wolverine grid grad to its staff of football tutors. Weber was appointed by the Board in Control of Athletics to the position of general coach, with his main duties as an assistant in foot- ball. Weber held down the fullback berth-on the 1925 and 26 elevens which won the Big Ten champion- ships for Michigan. He was de- prived of three years of athletic competition at Michigan by the fact that he had played football for one year at Detroit City college before coming to Ann Arbor. After his graduation from the University in February 1927, Weber started work on his Masters degree. In the fall of that year he went to Benton Har- bor High school where he turned out some powerful grid teams and was runner up the following year. Charles Bernard, '34, a member of this year's grid squad was an all- state center for two years when he played under Weber at Benton Har- bor. Buss, Michigan State tackle, was another of Weber's all-state players. This former Wolverine grid star is aiding in coaching the 'Michigan backfield this fall.
