THE MICHIGAN DAILY - ilverilnes HoldjN ight Practice in Field Hot ITLE HARD WORK, Sing Sing Develops Grid Team Over Confidence Worries Coach; Drill on Defense for Gopher Plays. Because of mid-semester exam- inations - t h e Michigan football squad was compelled to hold their daily workout within the cofines of Yost Field House last night. The drill was comparatively short, with offensive tactics gaining the ma- Jor share of attention. Work In Small Space. The preseice of the basketball floor, newly laid, limited the space available for the practice, so Kipke and his men were obliged to con- fine their work to a small corner of the building. K i p k e is contemplating no changes from the lineup which started against Michigan State last; week. Tessmer,' who injured his shoulder in the Indiana game., is definitely lost to the squad for the" Minnesota game, which means that Captain Hudson will again call the. 'signals. , Tests Give Little .Worry. , Although examination time is al- ways a trying period in every life, Kipke is not worrying a great deal about losing any of his men be- cause of schoastic 'difficulties. Because of the light drill last night it is quite probable that the Wolverines will get a stiffer dose than usual for their Thursday af- ternoon workout. Kipke is trying to guard against ver-confidence in his men, because he realizes that the fighting Gophers are not to be taken too lightly. Gophers Feared. Any team. that can get a four- teen point lead on Northwestern in the first half must be feared. The Wolverines have been taking a good look at Minnesota plays and formations all week and the build- ing, f a defense to stop them has come in for its-share of attention. Although the field house provid- edlittle opportunity to do any con- centrated work on the over head game this department was not overlooked entirely. It is not at all improbable that the Wolverines will be forced to take to the air in the contest Saturday. FOUR LET TER MEN REPORTTO WEST Gymnastics Coach Is Hoping for Winning Squad. With a group of fifteen men, in- clui ng four letter men from last year's squad; working out daily in the auxiliary gymnasium of the In- tramural building, Coach "Bill" West is building high hopes for a successful gymnastics team during the coming campaign., Although the season does not get underway until after the Christ- mas holidays, all the work that can be done now will prove valuable when the regular schedule starts. Last year, Michigan's first in this sport,, brought the gymnasts fifth place in the Conference standings, and West is hopeful of moving up at least two or three notches. The letter men from last year's squad include Decker, Ellsworth, Parker, and A. Steinberg. Schiller and H. Steinberg, who ran into scholastic difficulties last season, have straightened things out and are expected to add materially to the strength of the team. Bauch, Menton, and Ponto, sophomores, and Raeuber, a transfer from Wis- consin, will also bolster up the team strength. Two Alabama players, Leon Long and Hillman Holley, tied for scor- ing honors early in the southern conference football season. BIG TEN HARRIERS TO RACE AT IO1IAg Hoosiers and Badgers Are Rated as Favorites, With Illini and Wolves Next. University of Iowa will play host to the Big Ten cross country teams this Saturday when the conference meet is held in Iowa City. The Hoosier harriers are favor- ed to retain their title, although the Badgers are ranked in pre-race dope to have almost an equal chance with they Indiana runners to win the meet. The rest of the teams are apparently' outclassed by the two ranking favorites. Indiana is Strong. Indiana has a powerful aggre- gation of seven letter winners, with such well-known names as Brocksmith and Neese, leading the list in defense of its three year title. Tom Jones, Wisconsin coach, will enter a six-man, undefeated team in the race in an effort to wrest the charpionship from the Hoosiers. Illini Rated Third. Illinois is classed as the third factor in the meet, with Woolsey and Line as its chief threats. How- ell of the Wolverines is picked among the stars who should be able to place well up on the list of in- dividual leaders. Captain Currell of Minnesota is another runner who can be expected to come in near the top of the pack. The race this year, for the first time in recent engagements, will be run over a four-mile course in- stead of the usual five-mile dist- ance. New York Rangers Claim Greatest Forward Wall in League; Openers Prove Its Worth By Fred A. Huber Power has been shown by the New York Rangers in the opening games of the 1931 hockey season. The Rangers, a vastly improved sextet, boasts the greatest forward wall as a unit, in the league today. Bill Cook, his brother Bun Cook, wingmen and the sterling Frank Boucher at center composed the outstanding front line of the divi- sion. The other clubs may have one or two better forwards but no one can produce a line to rival this group for team play. Boucher fig- ures with Goodfellow and Morenz as the best center in the circuit in- dividually too, while the brothers Cook are always rated among the leading fiankmen. Johnson Back Again. The vetern defense man Ching Johnson is back at his post and his partner this seaon is a very prom- ising youngster named Seibert, a cousin of the famous Babe Seibert, of the Montreal Maroons. Johm Ross Roach is again between the posts and is certain to rank among the best net-minders of the circuit. % One membet of the famous sec- ond wall, Paul Thompson, was trad- ed to Chicago just before the sea- son opened and Vic DesJardines, a promising veteran of one season and Art Somers, chunky "Bad man" were' surrendered by the Black Hawks in the deal. Murray Murdock, rangy blond understudy to Frank Boucher, and Butch Kee- ling are again playing on the re- lief line however. Milks is Added. The breakup of the Ottawa and Philadelphia clubs enabled the team to fall heir to Hib Milks, who is now being used as a spare de- fenseman. Milks, an old timer in professional hockey and long a stellar center-ice man, was shifted to the back wall by the Quakers last season and did so well there that Lester Patrick has seen fit to employ him in the same capacity this year. Norman "Dutch" Gainor was se- cured from Boston in a trade for Joe Jerwa. This move was a dis- tinct surprise as Gainor has proven his worth while Jerwa, secured from the Pacific Coast late last year showed very little. Paul Dil- lon, a reserve forward who was picked up near the end of the sea- son has been signed again and Brennan, a young defense man is also under cotract. A numnber of the boys who saw service last season have left the Rangers, chief among these being Paul Thompson, traded to Chicago. Detroit has secured Peters, Bour- geault has been let out, and Waite, sub center in 1930 has caught on with Syracuse. Eddie Rodden, fight- ing wingman is seeing action with1 the Pittsburgh Yellowjackets this' year. CLASH TOMORROI Weber Limited to 11 Play as Physical Eds.
