BILL HEWITT TRIED
IN BACKFIELD RLE
Newman's Ankle Suffers Injury;
Coach Kipke Experiments
With Ball-Toters.
If the coaches keep on driving
Michigan's grid squad the way they
did yesterday afternoon, the Wol-
verine eleven that faces Ohio State
this Saturday should be an entire-
ly different team in spirit and
punch than the one which so mis-
erably held off Chicago's fighting
comeback in the second half last
week-end.
Hewitt in Backfield
The coaches centered their at-
tention on bolstering up the run-
ning attack of the Maize and Blue,
with the backs getting special work
on blocking out the inrushing op-
posing players. Bill Hewitt was
working in the backfield yesterday
and reeled off some long gains
through the center of the line and
around the ends. Ted Petoskey
was at Hewitt's end position with
Williamson and Daniels alternat-
ing at the right flank position.
Petoskey while he has been in the
game has demonstrated that he is
a capable performer in all branches
of play.
Newman Injures Ankle
Harry Newman was at his regu-
lar position of quarterback until
he hurt his ankle, which has been
troubling him most of the season.
However, the injury should not
prove serious enough to keep him
out of the lineup Saturday. Jack
Heston, Fay, DeBaker, Everhardus
ands Hudson alternated at the
backfield positions.
The linesmen also came in for
their share of attention. Numerous
weak spots were apparent on both
offense and defense in Saturday's
fray, and the coaches worked dili-
gently toward remedying these de-
fects. The tackling and blocking of
the linement was not everything to
be desired, especially on the part
of the ends.

FRESHMEN MEET
VARSITY ELEVEN
Yearlings Learn Buckeye Plays
to Use Against Regulars.
The freshman football team will
be confronted with the task of
learning a great number of Ohio
State plays before tomorrow night
when they will take the field
against the varsity gridders in an
effort to strengthen the defense of
the regulars for Saturday's game.
According to Coach Ray Fisher
the squad as a whole does not look
as strong as last season's yearling
eleven, a number of whom have
found places on the varsity this
season. There are several promis-
ing individuals, however, who are
expected to develop.
