THE MICHIGAN DAILY ossman Picked on All-American Hockey Sext .00 WOLV ERINE L E ADERB CHOSEN AS SP ARE College Humor Also Gives Reid Honorable Mention for Wing Position. Keith Crossman, co-captain 6f Michigan's Varsity hockey team for next. year, was named a spare on College Humor's All-American sex- tet selected by Les Gage, the sport editor of the magazine. Emmy Reid, co-captain with Crossman, was given honorable mention at a wing position. Jack Tompkins, this year's leader and an All-American goalie last year, was given considerable considera- tion for the net minderberth, but lost the selection to Oscar Alm- quist, of St. Mary's. Outstanding in College Circles. Crossman has been one of the outstanding centers in college hockey circles since his first season on the Wolverine Varsity. 'The Reid-Crossman combination is one of the' most feared scoring duos in the Western conference, the two of theme usually combining to pro- duce the Michigan scores. This is the first year that Cross- man has received national recog- nition on the team selected by Les -Gage. Last season, Reid was named as a wing on the second team. Wood, Morton Named. The first sextet selected included two forward lines, a pair of de- fense men, the goal teder and two spares. The two centers nam- ed on the mythical six were Barry Wood, member of Harvard's Olym- pic team, and William Morton, of Dartmouth. Both men are good stick-handlers, smart-players and. fast skaters. Wood is especially dangerous on offense with his won- derful body fake. The first pair of wing men was comprised of McAlpin, Princeton leader,aand Charles Cunningham, of Harvard, who was selected to the post for the third, successive year. Many experts consider the Crimson forward as the best right wing of the season. - Defense Men Are Captains. The'other pair named was Dun- bar Bostick, Yale, and Lane, Princeton, a sophomore. The two defense men selected, John Muhl- feld, Yale, and Hanley, New Hamp- shire, were both ,captains of their respective teams. The selection of :Hanley is remarkable in that he carried the entire burden of a mediocre team. Oscar Almquist received the goalie's berth because of his great courage, his skillful timing, speed and excellent judgment. Hawkes, Dartmouth, and Thouron, Prince- ton, were the other men considere for the post with Tompkins.

Veterans Compose Nucleus for Golf Team; Fischer Out Although the weather up to this time has not permitted members of the Wolverine golf squad to do much playing, most of the prospec- tive niblic wielders have taken ad- vantage of what nice weather there hase been to loosen up their swings. The "grand old man of Michigan' golf," Coach Thomas Trueblood, is still .vacationing in Florida but is expected back within a very few days at which time members of the squad will get down to work in earnest. Prospects Bright. Prospects for a winn:ng team ap- pear to be unusually bright with Captain Lenfesty, Johnny Howard Gene Hand and Alex Jolley all back in school. In addition to the above named veterans, Johnny Fischer, star of last year's fresh- man team, will be on hand. Fischer is perhaps the most re- nowned golfer on the campus. He holds the present record for the University course, having turned in a 68, forthehonor of being the only person ever to break 70. Potent National Figure. In addition to his accomplish- ments at Michigan, Fischer has made himself a potent figure in in national circles. He led the Western Open at the quarter post in 1930 and has qualified for the National Amateur on various oc- casions. He has also been a con- sistent winner of the Kentucky State championship and numerous other tournaments in and around the Cincinnati district. The opening meet of the season is scheduled for April 16, when the Wolverines will travel to Detroit for a match with the Detroit Coun- try club.

NEW WRESTLING CAPTAIN SHOWS CHECKERED CAREER IN MAT SPORT Star and Coach Are Attempting to Effect Comeback. By Albert Newman.f Starting out nine years ago as a high-school boy who did not like to wrestle, Blair Thomas, captain- elect of the Michigan grappling squad, began an amateur career which brought him at its high mark to the finals of the 1928 Olympic tryouts. The story of the new Varsity leader's rise in this sport reads like fiction. Captain-elect Thomas became a high school freshman at the Cresco, Iowa, preparatory school in 1922, as a boy who was not particularly tak- en with the mat sport. Prevailed upon to give it a try, his interest and skill increased rapidly and fi- nally -in his senior year he won the state championship in his class. - Entered Nationals. Thomas came to the University in the fall of 1926, one of the few yearling grapplers here in the past decade possessing any previous ex- perience in the sport. Under the tutelage of Coach Keen he improv- ed still more, and at the end of the season, he entered the nationals in the 135-pound class. There, he lost out in the finals, but gained consid- erable experience. Thomas' sophomore year was his best. Kept out of the Big Ten and the Nationals because the 1928 cap- tain here was the defending cham- pion in thatclass, he resolved to en- ter the Olympic tryouts at Grand Rapids on the 4th, 5th and 6th of July, 1928. .In five bouts he fought his way through to the finals of the tryouts. In a thrilling match which ran to two ovetrimes, the new Wolverine leader lost to Morrison of the University of Illinois by a three- point decision. Go West Young Man. It was a double failure. Discour- aged by his defeat, and in fin ncial difficulties because of the length of his training period, Thomas left the'University and became con- nected with a refrigerator firm in Portland, Oregon. It was while he was there that he married the NOTICE The All - Campus swimming meet will take place tonight at the Intramural pool.

Keen, a strong personal friend. The mentor challenged him to stage a comeback, and both of them set themselves to the task of proving the old saying about an athlete's never coming back a fallacy. Thom- as had not wrestled for three years. This season, a fairly successful one, was largely spent by coach and pu- pil in atempting to regain the fine points gained by the grappler in 1928. Dropped Only One Bout. Events have proven their success so far. While Thomas has not re- gained all his former skill, he has recovered it to a surprising degree. His one defeat this year was admin- istered by Belshaw of Indiana, Na- tional champion in the 135-pound class. Thomas characterizes his skill as superior to that of Morrison, the Olympic choice of 1928. Next season should see the con- summation of the comeback hinted at this year. The grappling squad seems headed for a good season, barring accidents, and Thomas and Keen will again set themselves to Western State Teachers college in Yost Field house. On the tenth of that month the Wolverines will once again take up their rivalry with Michigan State, meeting the Spartans here. Mt. Union is the next opponent on the cart, making an appearance in Ann Arbor on December 15. Two days later the Wolves will play a return engagement with the Teach- ers at Kalamazoo. Starting off the new year, Mich- igan will play host to Syracuse, en- gaging the Easterners on January 2. The Wolverines will be out to revenge the defeat they suffered this past season at Syracuse. On February 11 the Maize and Blue will return the visit of the Spart- ans, meeting them on the East Lan- sing court.
