MTCT-ITCAN flATLY _____________________________________ - - - ---~--~-~-- ~ == ik Wolverine Varsity Starts Preparation for Ohio State Game 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.
