THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1931 THE MICHIGAN DAILY .O2PAGJ TaH1t Wolverlines Finish Preparations for Tiger Fray BLOCKING SESSION FEATUREOF DRILL Squad of Thirty Men Will Take Train This Afternoon for Princeton. Michigan's g r i d i r o n warriors wound up their home preparations for the battle with Princeton yes- terday with another light workout. The squad, thirty strong, will en- train this afternoon at 5 o'clock for the east. Determined that he will have a strong blocking combination on the field against the Tigers, Coach Kipke worked his men for close to an hour polishing up on this im- p o r t a n t fundamental. Although there were times when the fresh- men found little trouble in slicing through the Varsity backs, the cali- ber of the work displayed was vast- ly improved over that of a week ago. Petoskey at End. The linemen were also given a short charging drill: The coaches Are attempting to get the forward wall to start quickly and thereby get the jump on the opposing first line of defense. Coach Oosterbaan spent t h e greater 'part of the afternoon teaching Petoskey the tricks of the end playing trade. With Hewitt now a backfield fixture, the job of holding down the right end duties devolves upon this sophomore star. Petoskey's play in the Illinois game has practically cinched the position for him. Polish up Passing. The varsity backs, behind a re- serve line, spent considerable time in polishing up their forward pass- ing attack against the "B" team. Newman, Hewitt, and Renner, the latest addition to the Varsity squad, alternated at the throwing end. Everhardus, Tessmer and Heston, the men injured in the Indian bat- tle were back in uniform today. The entire squad that will make the trip to Princeton took a look at the Tiger plays as demonstrated by a freshman eleven. Unless Al Wit- mer, former Princeton star and present coach, has a few tricks up his sleeve, it looks very much like a blue Saturday for the New Jer- sey lads, since the freshmen could m a k e n o headway whatsoever against the varsity using the cur- rent assortment. BIG LEAGUE HOCKEY TEAMS START TRAINING FOR OPENING OF SEASON DANIELS IS THIRD VARSITY FLANKER Associiated Press Photo Ebbie ALL-CAMPUS GOLF IN QUARTERFINALS Tourney Should Go Into Finals by This Weekend. Play in the second and third flights of the All-Campus golf tour- nament is now divided about half way between the quarter and semi- final braces. With ordinary prompt- ness this week-end should see the play of the finals. On the consolation side of thel second flight, however, Bunting and Gustin have yet to play their match to decide who will meet Gross in the quarters. Kitch and Kelley are already this far advanc- ed and should meet this week some time. On the victorious side of this flight, Fryer and Thayer are match- ed for the remaining quarter-final round. Pratt defeated Gluck to go to the semis and await the winner of the above match. Furst of the third flight defeat- ed Koch five and four to reach the semi-finals and will play the win- ner of the quarter match between Shetter and Wellman. On the con- solation side Dotts by a win over Pond and Cowan who defeated Mussey are paired for the semis al- ready.' Play in this tourney has been rather close and resulted in several defeats on the last greens, which seems to point to a fast finish in The opening of the National Hockey League, two-weeks from to- night will find only eight teams answering the starting siren. Four clubs will be in each circuit, one under the number of the past two seasons. This situation and the playoff schedule which schedules six clubs is bound to create more competition. Ottawa and Phila- delphia are the clubs which have withdrawn from the circuit and their players are split up among the remaining teams. Detroit Looks Strong. Numerous cnanges promise to make the Detroit Falcons a more formidable team. They have se- cured Doug Young, sensational de- fense man from the Cleveland In- dians, and Frank Peters, who show- ed ability in a tryout with the Ran- gers late in 1930. George Hay, vet- eran center has been appointed to manage the Olympics, the Detroit minor league entry and he should be a capable coach for the younger men. Ebbie Again A Threat. Much is expected of Ebbie Good- fellow, star center-ice man, who created a sensation last year by finishing runner up to Howie Mor- enz in the scoring race while play- ing with an inferior team. Good- fellow led untilthe last month when troubled by injuries and over- work he was passed by Morenz. The release of Reg Noble, veteran defense man is another good move. Noble was outwearing his useful- ness and didn't get along any too well with the other boys. Harvey Rockburn, colorful but rather use- less defense man has also been dropped, along with Bernie Brophy, veteran forward. Shovel-Shot Car- son Cooper has been named cap- tain in Noble's stead. CHICAGO- The Chicago stadium hopes to get the 10-round bout be- tween Primo Carnera and King Levinsky, Jewish heavyweight from the west side, when they clash the night of November 17. Large offers are attending the proposed comeback tour of Jack Dempsey, f o r m.e r heavyweight champion of the world, indicating that the fight promoters feel that he can draw crowds as of yore. the finals. Play has been on the University golf course as have all the campus golf events, thus giving the contestants a real field of bat- tle. With Hewitt in the backfield now,, Coach Kipke has placed greater responsibility for reserve duties in the flank positions upon the shoulders of Norman Daniels. In football Norm has had exper- ience at fullback and at end. In h i s sophomore year he substitut- ed in the Har- vard game f o r Hudson and Mor- rison. But he saw'. the most service at the flank where he was used in the Illi- nois and Minnes-j ota games. He played his best game against Io- wa that year Daniels when he did more than his share in stopping the hard-running Pape and Glasgow. Regular Last Year. Last season started with Daniels and Hewitt at the ends for the Var- sity. Hewitt broke his ankle in the Michigan State game and Norm injuried his shoulder so that he was out of the lineup from the Pur- due game until the Illini contest. Daniels never wholly recovered from this injury until after the basketball season. Consequently he was unable to see much service for the Wolverines at end. He did however play a part of the Illinois and other games, but his shoulder would not allow a full game. His injury gave Cox and Williamson their chance to play end last year and the latter is holding down the right end position now. Not in Old Form. Norm has never seemed to re- cover his old form, that which won him a regular birth at the opening of last year. He is an erratic pass receiver, sometimes making catches in Oosterbaan's style and on other occasions letting simple passes to slip through his fingers. He is a hard man to take out defense.

TWO PLEBE LINES TO FACE JAYVEES Coach Fisher Stiffens Defense of Freshman Team. In preparation for a scrimmage with the Junior Varsity this after- noon, Coach Ray Fisher yesterday, 1 put the yearling squad through a fight workout in an effort to per- fect a defense to stop the line bucks of Meldman and Schmidt. Fisher will use at least two com- plete lines in the game, depending on fresh material to stop these big ground gainers who tore through the Olivet eleven last Saturday. The probable starting line-up for the scrimmage is as follows: ends, Ward and Swartz; tackles, Hildi- brand and Jacobson; guards, Dux- berry and Pomeroy; center, Ford; quarterback, Whitmore; h a 1 f s, Shaw and Garrels; and fullback, Frankowski. None of these players will participate in the entire game, ~ Positions as Managers Are Open to Students According to Harvey Rasmussen, manager of the varsity basketball team,- very little interest has been shown by sophomores and second semester freshmen with a view to- ward trying out for the basketball managership. Although the sophomore jobs themselves carry no immediate re- ward, an excellent opportunity to work up to one of the four junior and two senior positions is afford- ed. The junior managers are taken on "B" team trips. Any student interested is urged to report to Rasmussen at the In- tramural building on either Wed- nesday or Thursday night at 7:30. For those not interested in play- ing, or perhaps not able to play, this sort of work affords an excell- ent chance to become intimately acquainted with the athletic situa- tion, coaches, and players. Pg[ w o G INBOB GROVE NEW YORK, Oct. 28.--A)--Rob- ert Grove, who turned in a record- breaking pitching year for the Philadelphia Athletics, has been selected as the American league's most valuable player for 1931. The celebrated southpaw of the former world champions receives the distinction by vote of a com- mittee of eight members of the baseball writers' association of America, announced today by Wil- liam J: Slocum of New York, presi- dent. Grove topped the list by a wide margin. He received 78 points ouc of a possible 80.
