Hockey Team to Open Conference Season Ton ICE SOUAD E AGER FOR BIGTEN 'TEST Minnesota to Offer Opposition for Wolves at Minneapolis, Gopher Stronghold. Deprived of Standing Maize and Blue Pucksters Be at Full Strength for Contest. Will Intent on starting their confer- ence season with a victory over Minnesota's powerful Northmen tonight at Minneapolis, Michigan's championship hockey sqad en- trained for the West yesterday af- ternoon at 2:20 o'clock. Tonight's contest will be the first of a two- game series, with the second battle - to be played on Friday night. As they took the train, the Wolverine ice squad appeared confident of victory over the Gophers. Minnesota is not to be under- estimated, as Coach Frank Pond has a veteran aggregation left from last year, and the machine he has built from his material in two sea- sons appears formidable. It was only after a long battle that the Northmen succumbed to Harvard, one of the top-flight Eastern teams, by the score of 7-6. Use Different Styles. Differences in ice tactics 'must also be brought to account. Min- nesota is coached to play a strong- ly aggressive, albeit somewhat in- cautious type of game, with three, or even four, men down the ice tak- ing shots at the goal and retriev- ing the puck successfully for an- other attack. Michigan's game is morecau1, and istbuilt around the defe hve side of the game more than is the strategy of their op- ponent.

Have Large Rink. Another factor in the game to- night is the size of the rink. The Minnesota rink is \20 feet longer and 10 feet wider than the local Cohseuar The Gophers have one of the "largest collegiate ice-floors of the entire pountry. To counter- act the effect of the increased width, Coach Lowrey of the Michi- gan varsity has drilled his forwards in passing longer distances. The full squad of ten men was slated by Lowrey for the trip, with Crossman, Reid, and Frumkes rath- er definitely decided en for the for- ward wall. Chapman and MacCol- lum are slated to fill the guard posts, and Captain Tompkins, of course, receiving the assignment of defending the meshes. Spares for the forward wall will be Artz, Sin- dles, and David, while Porte will relieve the guards. WASH INGTON WILL USE NEWSYSTEM NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-(/P)-The most effectiveness can be obtained in 1932 from the Washington pitch- *ing staff by use of the "spot" sys- tem, Clark Griffith, president, and Walter Johnson, manager of the Senators, have decided. In line with the theory, Alvin Crowder, who can defeat the Phila- delphia Athletics with more regu- larity than any other pitcher in the American league, will be thrown in against the league champions from the opening gun. Lloyd Brown, Bob Burke and Charley Fischer, all southpaws, un- dcr the plan, will b used 'against 'clubs strong in left-handed hitters, while Crowder and "Firpo" Marber- ry, righthanders, will be expected to take care of clubs featuring bat- ters who swing from the orthodox side. Brown, on the basis of Jast sea- son's work, figures to work prin-. cipally against Boston, Cleveland, and Chicago. Fischer probably will be sent against the same clubs Brown is able to subdue. Charles Paddock, nicknamed 'the world's fastest human,' and one of America's speediest sprinters, who is ineligible to compete in the Olym- pic Games, following the declara- tion by the A. A. U., that he is not an amateur. MATMEN TO MEET YEARLINGS FRIDAPY CAPPON -STRESSES OFFENSI TA CTICS Final Scr mage Before Gopher Contest Features Listless Practice Session. With the crucial contest with Minnesota only two days away, Coach "Cappy" Cappon devoted' most of yesterday afternioon's prac- tice session to polishing up the of- fensive machinery of his Wolver- ine basketball quintet. A short scrimmage session, the last before the team embarks for, the Gopher lair, occupied the var- ' ,sity for awhile. In general, the showing of the regulars was not up to the standard they have display- ed during the last few weeks, but this can probably best be attributed, to the lay-off granted the team Tuesday. Minnesota clearly demonstrated: in the last meeting between the two teams that they are nbt to be tak- en to lightly, and Cappon is trying to guard against : any s h ade of >= :: over - confidence creeping into his charges. Unless s o m e t h ing un- foreseen happens. Cappon will stand 'pat on his line- up, the same one U that started the Northwestern and Illinois games being scheduled to take the floor Saturday. If the Wolverines can successful- ly pass the Minnesota obstacle they will be in a fair way to end the first half of the season holding down second place, or possibly a Sally Hudson dropped the basketball squad from his list of activities it is understood. A dif- ficult examination schedule and' the forth coming baseball sea- son were given as possible rea- sons. As Hudson is the baseball captain he will immediately turn his attention to baseball after his examinations are completed. tie for first, since only Ohio State remains to be met before the ex- amination period. Although the Buckeyes ar- leading the heap at the present time with Nothwestern, the advantage Michigan will have to overcome by playing on the Co- lumbus floor should be a big fac- tor when the two teams meet. POSSIBLE PILOT J.CROWLEY, IOWA FAIL TO REACH TERMS AFTER HALF-DAY SESS Spartan Mentor States That He Receives $8,000 Now and Is Satisfied. I 0 W A CITY, Jan. 20.-VP)--- "Sleepy Jim" Crowley started for East Lansing, Mich., Tuesday night, a stronger candidate for the Uni- versity of Iowa head foot ball ball coaching job than he has been at any time since Burton A. Ingwer- sen resigned from the Hawkeyq position last December. Iowa athletic officials were ob- viously pleased viath the results of a five-hour interview with the Michigan State cqgch, and Crowley himself admitted he was "interest- ed in bettering himself and believ- ed that Iowa might be the place to do it." He explained, however, that he is getting $8.000 a year salary at Michigan State and said that he liked the job. Crowled indicated that unless Iowa matched or bet- tered that figure he would not care to change. He also said that his contract at Michigan State calls for. two more years of service. If arrangements are completed at Iowa, Crowley said he would pre- fer to bring Glenn Carberry, now an assistant at Michigan State, here with him. Carberry, who was captain of the Notre Dame team in 1922, knows the Notre Dame system, and would be a help to him., Crow- ley -asserted. Neither Crowley nor Hawkeye [ officials would make any announce- ment regarding the discussion of salary. The Hawkeye board reiter- ated last night the statements that Associated Press Photo, Bib Falk, veteran right-fielder of the Cleveland Indians, is mentioned as a strong possibility for the man- ageral post of the Toledo team of the American Association. T h e Mudhens were recently purchased by Cleveland fp r a player farm. Falk is the sec nd choice for the polition, 'it having been originally offered to Charlie Jamieson, anoth- er Indian outfielder, who preferred to remain with the major league club. All Seeded Men Win First Round Matches . in Hahdball Tourney Jim Crowley they intend to interview five other coaches under consideration before tendering a contract.- The Iowa board appeared im- pressed, however, with a telegram signed by %ten sports editors of leading state papers, indorsing Crowley's candidacy. Board members regard the selec- tion of the next foot ball coach as an opportunity to enlist the sup- port of the alumni and press of the state which has been divided in its opinion of Hawkeye athletics dur- ing the last few years. With strong alumni groups known to favor Crowley as Ingwersen's successor, and the statement of the sports writers, it ,appeared today that "Sleepy Jim" would continue to be at the top of the prospect list.

DOUKAS 1319 South University Kelly's Freshmen Expected Give Keen's Grapplers Tough Opposition. to Although Michigan's mat sched- ule has a lull in it from now until the opening of the second semester, the Wolverine grapplers will not want for competition during this interim as Coach Cliff Keen has ar- ranged for a meet with Kelly's freshmen stranglers this Friday af- ternoon'in the mat room of the In- tramuial building. Thd first year wrestlers will offer the Varsity men some tough oppo- sition as Kelly will select his team from those men who showed up the best in the University champion- ships, which were held just before the holidays. Several of the bouts were won by the yearling grapplers and others reachedlthe :finals. A number of the regular Varsity matmen will compete in this meet in order to gain more experience, although Keen will in all probabil- ity not send many of his proven veterans against the freshmen. Kelly, has some of the best freshV man material that has ever worked on the Wolverine mats, as was1 demonstrated by their showing in Bob Hewitt, former Michigan wrestlhng star, who was just barely nosed out ip the final bout in -the 1928 Olympics at Amsterdam in the 118-pound class, has announced his inten- tion of entering competition for this year's United States Olym- pic mat team. t h e all-campus championships. Among his proteges who will gi-ve the Varsity a tough battle are Mor- timer, who went /to the finals in the 135-pound class; Landwehr, who went through to win his bout at 145; Duxbury, who put up a good scrap barely being beaten in the 165-pound weight; and Hildebrand, who showed some real class in tak- ing the 175-pound championship. Play has progressed to the sec- cnd round in the All-Campus hand- ball tournament. All eight of the seeded players advanced, seven of them winning their matches while the other man received a bye. The second round will be played on Thursday, with the hope of com- pleting the tourney before the ex-. amination period. The doubles' tournament will be played during the second semester. Leo Goodman, ranked number two man, had the only difficult match of the initial round. He eliminated Jones by a 2 games to 1 score. The other first round win- ners were Phelps, Carter, Lance: Freidman, Straub and Cohen.
