Michigan's squad of gridiron war- riors, 33 strong, left Ann Arbor last night on the long trek to Cham- paign for their annual battle with the Illini. Still smarting from the Buckeye defeat of last week, the Wolverines wound up their grid practice yesterday afternoon with a snap and determination w h i c h should be warning enough for the Indians this week. The men will spend the night on the Pullmans enroute to Chicago where they will stay until Satur- day morning. A light workout this afternoon on Stagg field will make up the final drill before the Wolves meet the Illini, Kipke announced. The team will arrive in Champaign Saturday noon. Attempt Pass Defense. Yesterday's drill indicated that Kipke is taking no chances on a surprise aerial attack, for the Wolves were drilled most of the session against Illinois pass plays executed by the picked freshman eleven. Probable starters against the In- dians will be approximately the same team which faced the Buck- eyes. Hewitt and Williamson at ends; Auer and Samuels, guards; Hozer and LaJeundsse, guards; Morrison, center;Heston and Fay at the halves; Capt. Hudson at full and either Tessmer or Newman at quarter. Hudson is a doubt:Kil start- er due to a neck injury suffered in the last game. If he is forced, to remain on the bench, Kipke will send Hewitt in at full and Petoskey will get a chance at left end. In Good Condition. The men who make up the three- team squad which is accompanying Kipke includes: centers, Morrison, Bernard, and Cooke; guards, Hozer, LaJeunesse, K o w a 1 i k, Cantrill, Douglass, Marcovsky, S i k k e n g a, Oehmann and Frisk; tackles, Auer, Samuels, Wistert, Goldsmnith, Chap- man,and Miller; ends, Hewitt, Wil- liamson, Petoskey, Daniels, and Yost; quarterbacks, Newman, Tess- mer, Westover; halves, Heston, Fay, Everhardus, DeBaker, and East- man; fullbacks, Hudson and Cox. Outside of Hudson, the entire Varsity is in the best of condition and should be able to present a strong front to the Illini. Blocking May Settle Mdicliian-llini Clash Wolverines Drilled n Scoring Plays for Saturday. By Sheldon C. Fullerton Michigan's lack of success in its two Conference games against Chi- cago and Ohio State can be at- tributecd to three factors, poor in- terference, poor blocking, and poor field generalship. Throughout the entire week Coach Harry Kipke and his assistants, with even Field- ing H. Yost again stepping in to lend 4a helping hand, have drilled these three phases of the game in- to the players, in an effort to whip the team into shap to meet Illinois tomorrow. Emphasis has been placed on plays that will score a touch- down for the Wolverines when they once get inside an oppo- nent's 5-yard line. So far this year the Varsity has reached a scoring position like this on three different occasions, and has failed in, each attempt to cross the opponent's goal. If drilling the players intensively on this one phase of the game can be expected to avert another repe- tition of such an occurrence, it is not likely that the Maize and Blue will fail in another effort to score a touchdown from such close quar- ters. The group of Michigan men- tors has also worked overtime to .try to teach the players the arty of blocking, and of provid- (Continued on Page 7) SENIOR CIRCUIT SH BETTER 1931 RE By Fred A. Hub er. The cream of the shortstops lay heavily in the National League dur- ing the 1931 baseball season. Many of the American League clubs failed to find a regular and were shifting their short-fielders throughout the year. Charlie Gelbert, peppery short- stop of the St. Louis Cardinals was probably the outstanding man of his class in the senior loop but with an unusually good crop of players in that league, his superiority may lie in the fac(ithat he worked beside the veteran Frankie Frisch, and a good second baseman is a great ad- vantage to any shortstop. Jackson Did Well. The veteran Travis Jackson, in- field mainstay of the Giants played superbly all season. His hitting was timely and his defensive work was certainly up to his former standard, especially in view of the fact that his team-mate at sceond base, a large. percentage of the tine, was Bill Hunnefield, a notoriously poor fielder. Dick Bartell was injured in mid- seasonrand lost to the Phillies for a month but when he was in the line- up he played good baseball. Tommy Thevenow, traded to the Pirates for Bartell last winter, was the pro- verbial tower of strength on the defense, but at bat he never reached full efficiency, finishing below the . 50 mark in hitting. Another form- eir Pittsburgh player, Glenn Wright did a majority of the work for Brooklyn, but he was harassed by a trick ankle all year. Duroeher Starred. Probably one of the most improv- ed shortstops in either circuit was Leo Durocher, talkative lad withthe Cincinnati Reds. Durocher, former- ORTSTOPS MAKE CORD THAN RIVALS 4 -CFINALS POSTPONED Fischer and Dayton Will Meet in First Half of Match This Afternoon. The finals of the All-Campus golf tournament scheduled for yester- day afternoon between Eddie Day- ton and John Fischer were post- poned until 1:30- this afternoon. Eighteen holes will be played this afternoon, with the other half card- ed for Saturday morning. Dayton's game has suffered con- siderably because of a slight ill- ness, and he wished an extra day to get the sore spots out of his system before tackling the lanky sophomore star. Fischer has been playing excep- tionally well of late and would be a tough customer for anyone not right physically. Dayton advanced to the final round by victories over David, 1 up; O'Brien, 8-6; and Oliver, 5-4. Fis- cher found the going just as easy in a 4-3 victory over Montague. In the second round he disposed of Johnny Howard, varsity star, 6-5, then defeated Russ Oliver 5-4 to gain his place in the finals. - 4asociit ra i r'7ess PIoto Leo Durocher ly a good fielder and notably weak batsman, found his hitting eye last season and turned in the most im- pressive stickwork of his major career.

Iowa Team Improves for Gopher Contest (Special to The Daily) IOWA CITY, Oct. 22-Like a nov- ice moving steadily towards matur- ity under the influence of experi- ence and practice, the University of, Iowa's football team is advanc- ing. towards its peak.
