SHERF WINS TWO
RACES FOR TITLE
Yearling Hockey Star Captures
Ice Carnival Crown.
John Sherf won the mile and the
440-yard races last night in the
All-Campus Ice Carnival to take the
individual championships in the
Coliseum. Paul Tietjen and R. Dun-
bar tied for second place with a
first and second each.
R. Dunbar won the 220-yard
sprint in :t5.4, two-fifths of a sec-
onld over the record. Patronski and
Prianishnikoff finished in back of
him. f
Paul Tietj en defeated David Scott
in the 830-yarddrace in 1:53.4. John
Sherf won his first race of the eve-
ning over Tietj en and Joseph and
then came back on the ice to break
the 440-yard record of :55.4 over
Patronsky -and' Prianishnikoff in
:53.6. ,,
Richardson stepped out into an
early lead in the 2-mile race and
held it against the challenges of
Dunbar and Jewell. He had lapped
most bf the contestants before John
Jewell, goalie on the freshman hoc-,
key team, started his drive. Dunbar
also started a sprint in the last laps
and nosed out Jewell to finish 50
feet behind the flying Richardson.
The winner of the 2-mile event
broke the record of 8:36 to 8:15. His
long even stride carried hits, into
his early lead and enabled him to
withstand the challenges of Jewell
and Dunbar.
ark and fralned as a batsman, is
putting up competition for a job,
as is Jesse Hill, secured from the
Pacific Coast League. One of these
men will be cut loose, however.
Lary Sure Bet.
In the infield two veterans, Lyn
Lary, stellar shortstop, and Lar-
rv~in' Lou Gehrig, slugging first-
sacker, are fixtures. Jack Saltz-
gayer from the American Associa-
tion, loks placed at second base. He
will find Tony Lozzeri a hard man
to beat however. At third is Frank
Crosetti, protege of Lazzeri, who
has seta phenomenal pace at ghird
for San Francisco.
The catching staff will again be
headed by the steady and heady
Bill Dickey. Ralph Perkins has
gone, but Arndt Jorgens, relief
maskinan in 1931 and Ralph Pad-
den, recalled from St. Paul, seem
sure to secure the other two places.
Hurlers Look Good.
The pitching staff looks as for-
midable as it has in many seasons.
George Pipgras is entirely recover-
ed from the illness that kept him
idle most of last season and is ex-
pected to be the ace moundsman of
the Yanks. Herb Pennock, old-'
timq portsider, is another bet to
win a goodly share of ball games
and Vernon Gomez, with a season
of majo rleague experience behind
him, should be more formidable
than ever.
Vd Wells, another left-hander, is
sure to win a starting place on the
staff along with the hard hittirg
Charlie Ruffing. Of the new men
Johnny Murphy, secured froM St.
Paul, and young Henry Nekola, who
pitched i n t h e International
League last year, look like the best
bets.
George Veenker May
Sin as Head Coach
of Badger Gridders
George Veenker, former Michigan
basketball coach and .assistant,
football coach, has been approach-
ed by Wisconsin athletic authori-
ties, pending a position as head
coach of the Badgers, it is rumored.
Veenker, if he conm~pletes negotia-
tions, will succeed Glen Thistle'-
waite, ex-mentor-~of the Wisconsin
grid team.
Following a year's work with
Iowa State, Veenker may return to
the Big Ten ranks to train teams to
fight against, instead of for, Mich-
igan. In one year Veenker raisedI
the -mid-Western aggregation from
a low position )to a ranking place
and a possible championship in the
Misso uri Valley conference.p -
The reason Veenker gave for re-
signing from the Michigan coach-
inig squad was the desire to make a=
name for himself as a grid mentor
g'ather than a basketball coach.
While in Ann ,Arbor, Veenker was
a highly popular and efficient
cch, and the Varsity may well
consider his teams a inenace if he
is signed by the Badgers,-
