The score 16-46. Michigan tallied by far the low- 'st number of points. In scoring ross-country runs, the outcome is tetermined by adding the finish- ng number of each man of the trst five to come in on each team. hus the team with the lowest Lumber of points ins. Howell Places First. Bill Howell, ace of the Michigan Lrriers, was the outstanding in- idual star of the day, breaking 00 own course record for the Uni- ersity layout by nearly ten sec- ds to win in the excellent time f fifteen minutes, twenty-eight Ond four-tenths seconds. Howell, WI, Wolfe and Fitzgibbons tobk h6e first four places without trou- le, Miller of the Detroit squad reaking the Michigan streak to alie fifth place. McManus took 1th, and Kelley, of the "Y" broke r1 again to place seventh in the aeet as the second Detroit man to' nish. Ostrander of Michigan took Ighth, White of Detroit placed inth, and Braden, of the Wolves, iok tenth. Howell Passed by Austin. The University course, of three 0les, runs from the Ferry Field val along State street under the aduct, around the golf course and ack again. At the start, Howell, :ill, Fitzgibbons and Wolfe 'of [Ichigan stepped into the lead,. rid maintained their position until he mile-and-a-half mark, when owell stepped out, only to be pss- d at the two-mile mark by his old ammate. Austin, who graduated 1 a s t fring, merely ran the course yes- rday for a workout. The last mile solved itself into a bitter duel be- ween Howell and Austin, the two f them finishing in a driving burst f speed with but a scant ten feet parating them. Austin won, but since he was unning for neither team, his time as not recorded. In Vhe time trials r the meet, earlier in the week, owell beat the lanky graduate by mething likeĀ° twenty yards, so iat honors between them for this ason would seem to be about ven. Hill, in finishing some thirty ards behind the two leaders, lowed fine form. Fitzgibbons and rolfe, trailing Hill by a scant mar- in, also ran an excellent race. M onroe * Has Poor Run. The major upset of the morning :onroe's failure to score in the rst ten. Monroe, a former Michi- an harrier, has been running some xox1 races in the last few years r the Detroit Y. M. C. A. He fin- hed twelfth, appearing to be in oor condition. However,, the close nish between Austin' and Howell rought the meet up to an unusual andard of interet; such close wces are not often seen in a cross- )untry, meet. The Harriers' crushing victory, id the fine form they displayed i gaining it, brings hopes high for ter conference competition.

Contract Soon.t Rumors Name Successor as Con- nie Mack, Owen Bush, Steve O'Neil and Others. DETROIT, Oct. 17:-According to the Detroit News Stanley Raymond Harris will undoubtedly return as manager of the Detroit Tigers next year. Although he has not signed a contract it is understood that he has been informed that he will be offered one within the next two months. Pending an official announce- ment from the Detroit base ball ,club offites that Harris will be re- tained as manager there are vari- ous rumors regarding his successor. Among those named to succeed Harris are Edward Trowridge Col- lins, assistant to Cornelius McGilli- cuddy at Philadelphia; Owen Bush, former Detroit shortstop and who recently resigned as manager of the Chicago White Sox; Steve O'Neil, former Cleveland catcher, later a Detroit scout and at present man- ager of the Toronto team in the International League; Daniel Philip Howley, manager of the Cincinnati Reds and former Detroit coach of pitcher4 and catchers; Clarence Rowland, former American League umpire and one time manager oft a world champion Chicago White Sox team; William (Kid) Gleason, former manager of the White Soxt and for the last several years as-f sistant to Cornelius McGillicuddyr at Philadelphia, and a number of others, both major and minor leaguers. c Foxx. Howard Auer, after starting poor- ly, came to the front as Michigan's outstanding lineman y e s t e r d a y against Ohio State. His play in the latter stages of the game was bril- liant as he kept the opposition completely at bay at his left tackle. Dayton Advances to All-Campus Golf Finals by Defeating Oliver, 5 and 4. Tommy Armour, British open golf champion and former winner of the American open and Canadian open, shoe t the difficult first nine of the'. University golf course yesterday ni!iirning before the Ohio State- Michigan football game in 38. After finishing the nine Armour said that it was one of the most beautiful courses that he has played over in some time. He added that it was a true test of a golfer. Gene ,Dayton experienced little difficulty in eliminating Russell Oliver, freshman from Pontiac, in the semi-finals of the all-campus golf tournament yesterday by win- ning 5 and 4.'

Ann Arbor high school's football team sprang an upset yesterday at Wines Field by sending the highly rated Flint Northern high school's team home in defeat by the nar- The tendency to sacrifice fielding ability for hitting power among the Major League Clubs has elicited a storm of criticism from baseball observers. This sacrifice seems to be especially noticeable among the first basemen of the two loops. Very few of the Major League's initial sackers today are good both offensively and defensively. This is especially true in the American League where only Eddie Morgan of the Cleveland Indians is a, double-threat man. Dale Alexander, big first baseman of the Tigers is a very powerful batsman but a weak fielder. Lou Gehrig, home-run ace of the Yan- kees is another ball player who has never been noted for defensive strength. Jack Burns, rookie with St. Louis, is good in the field but no batsman. The veteran Lou Blue hit better this season than he has in several years but he slowed up noticeably in the field. Foxx is Poor Fielder. Jimmy Foxx, slugging first base- man of the Philadelphia Athletics has never been a good fielder due largely to the fact that he was de- veloped originally as a catcher and a third baseman, before being fi- nally placed at the initial sack. In the senior loop the rule is not as stringent. Don Hurst of the Philadelphia Phillies has a low de- fensive value and Gus Suhr, former Pacific Coast League slugger, now on his second season with the Pittsburgh Pirates has never reach- ed his full hitting stride although his work in the field has been flaw- less. Harvey Hendrick, veteran jack- of-all-positions who was traded to' the Cincinnati Reds last season is another slow fielder. Del Bissonette of Brooklyn has been ill for the past two seasons, a fact which na- turally slowed up his work. Bottomley Returns to Form. Sunny Jim Bottomley, whose first basing exhibition in the last World Series contributed greatly to the Cardinals' victory, is the greatest combination of hitting and fielding in the senior loop. His work fell off greatly in 1930 and Jim Collins, leading hitter at Rochester that season was brought in by the Red Birds. $ottomley returned to form last year, however, and the rookie got little chance. The Giants had the slugging Bill Terry, another man lacking defensive finesse. The Braves had Earl Sheely, drafted nofluLlJti' . r n w ou"I n . y orLcl u y iembers which was added to the fall Intramural sports program. will get under way this week.

However, none of these has been considered officially by the Detroit club as a successor to Harris. While Harris will start his fourth season as manager of the Tigers in 1932 he will be without the assist- ance of Jean Dubuc and Roger Bresnahan. Dubuc, a former De- troit pitcher and minor league manager, and Bresnahan, former National League manager and one of the greatest catchers of all time, have had charge of the Detroit pitchers and catchers for the last two years. Harris will have only one assist- ant next season and he will be "Muddy" Ruel, who caught for Harris when Harris was manager of the Washington team and who came to Detroit last August in a trade for Marty McManus. t t l i 1 ''"E I S y 3 { ry J i C row margin of 7 to 6. Flint made a 65-yard march for a touchdown early in the last peri- od and appeared to have the game on ice. Ann Arbor steamed up by holding the Eskimos after kicking off, forcing them to kick to their own 40-yard line. On the second play Royce drop- ped back and threw a 25-yard pass into the awaiting arms of Jennings Who sprinted over the goal line, tieing the score. Royce then put his team ahead with a field goal. Although the Hollowaymen lack- ed the scoring punch when it was needed yesterday, they showed con- siderable improvement over last week's game in Saginaw. The line play had improved and the linemen outcharg; th Flintites. In the first half Ann Arbor had the upper edge, keeping the ball in Northern's territory most of the' half. In the second half Flint be- gan a determined drive that netted six first downs to the home team's s1,0 Luxursious Rad o-Eq uipped Greyhound Club Car Specals CAMPUS ieRAVEL BUREAU Union Side Desk 12 to 6 P.
