Willis Ward Also Considered to
Be Likely Selection for
Freshman Honor.
Naming Lineman Would Break
Precedent of Three Year's
Duration.
Michigan's most promising fresh-
man football player will receive the
highest award today when the
coaches, gather this afternoon to
select the winner of the Chicago
Alumni Trophy.
This award is presented after
Spring practice each year to the
outstanding yearling on the quad.
Basis of comparison is determined
by the individual crop of aspirants
and this season's group is one of
the best in recent years.
Captain Roy Hudson won the tro-
phy three years ago, Estil Tessmer
the next year, and Herman Ever-
hardus last spring. Although it is
not a definite rule, it is usually true
that the winner of the trophy also
wins a Varsity berth in the follow-
ing fall.
Jerry Ford and Emling are the
two outstanding centers of the
yearling squad. Ford has a great
prep school reputation, playing with
Grand Rapids South. Both of the
centers will rival other candidates
for the honor although in the last
four years, the winner has been a
backfield candidate.
Willis Ward is. the outstanding
end candidate among the first-year
footballers. The tall rahgy wing-
man is especially adept at catching
passes. He can go high into the air
to draw down the pigskin just as
the famed Benny Oosterbaan did
in his Varsity days.
Russel Oliver is a hard plunging
fullback with plenty of leg drive.
His defensive tactics are satisfac-
tory and he is a good blocker. As
he is in the limelight in the back-
field, many expect the honor to be
bestowed upon him.
Ford, Ward, and Oliver are great-
est competitors for the trophy al-
though several other yearlings are
being mentioned along with these
favorites.
When the coaches convene today,
they will have a harder job than
in most seasons. Any one of these
three stars are ready to step into
a Varsity position next fall if the
regulars falter in the least.
WOLVERINE TENNIS
MA TCH POSTPONED
With the Michigan-Western State
tennis match again rained out
yesterday, it seems that the weather
decrees that the two teams will
never meet. The first postponement
came on Saturday afternoon, an-
other cloudburst intervening.
Coach Byrum of the Hilltoppers
notified John Johnstone, coach of
the Michigan net squad, yesterday
morning that the weather condi-
tions at Kalamazoo were such that
the match could not be played.
The outcome of the match would
have been very dubious as far as
the Wolverines were concerned.
Western State has a team which is
probably as good as any' collegiate
"aggregation in Michigan. Their
early season record shows victories
over Notre DMe and Grand Rapids
J.C. Most notable, however, was a
three-all tie with Chicago's netmen.
The Maroons have shown their
power in defeating Northwestern's
crack team by the score of five
matches to one. With the Wildcats
apparently holding an edge over
the Wolves in the unfinished con-
test of Monday afternoon,' Michi-
gan's hopes against the Hilltoppers
seemed rather dim.
Athletic Honor Group
Elects New Officers
Phi Epsilon Kappa, physical edu-
cation honor fraternity, held elec-
lion of officers last week. The men
chosen to pilot the organization
through the 1932-33 season are:
Kent Bowsher, '33, president; Stan
Kracht, '33, vice-president; Harold
Kammerer, '34, secretary; and Ed
O'Donnell, '34, treasurer.

20 Wolverine thinclads this Satur-
day afternoon in the second dual1
meet on the Michigan schdule. The
Maize and Blue are the favorites
in the Columbus battle, although
the Scarlet and Gray will give the
Wolves a real struggle.
In the hurdle races the Buckeyes
are practically certain of taking
the honors, with their star Jack
Keller as the favorite. Black and
Johnson will also be in there to give
the Michigan timber-topper, Haw-'
ley Egleston, plenty of trouble.
There is no doubt as to the abil-
ity of the Ohio State barrier artists
as the shuttle relay team from Co-
lumbus captured the laurels in that
event at the Penn carnival two
weeks ago.
Fazekas is Threat.
The Ohioans also boast a great
array of dash men in Fazekas, Ben-
nett, Ross and Stapf. This quartet
composed the team which won the
half-mile relay at Pennsylvania
this spring. Fazekas will prove to
be plenty of trouble for Renwick in
the sprints, if he comes through as
the dopesters figure he will.
Another member of the Buckeye
squad which is practically certain
of a first place is Wonzewitz, who
cleared the bar at 13 feet six inches
to tie with Beecher of Indiana for
the winning position in the pole
xaF" in the big Pen carnival. This
mark established a new meet ree-
ord for the event.
Have Russel in High Jump.
The Scarlet and Gray are fairly
strong in the high jump, with such
men as Russel, who tied Juek for
laurels in the indoor meet last win-
ter, and Hochman.
Judging by the indoor meet with
Illinois and Ohio State the Wolves
look as if they will not have a great
deal of difficulty in besting the
Buckeyes, however the State team
has been considerably strengthened
since that time and promises to
put up tougher opposition this Sat-
urday.
Yearling Golf Team
Will Play 'B' Squad
Saturday Afternoon
Freshman golfers will have their
first real test of strength this Sat-
urday afternoon when they en-
counter the "B" team, which will
be composed of the six members of
the Varsity squad that do not make
the trip tohColumbus for the Ohio
State match.
Due to the skillful tutelage of
Coach Trueblood the yearling links-
men have shown remarkable pro-
gress since the opening of the
season. A list of the men who will
most probably play the "B" team
and their average scores are as fol-
lows: Sweet, 77; McKinley, 77 1-3;
Markham, 79; Seeley, 80; Ross, 80
1-3; Neahr, 81 1-3.
Trueblood wishes to announce
that any student who feels himself
capable of bettering any of these
scores is invited to try out for a
place on the team.
No matter which six of the ten
men the yearlings play, they will
have difficulty in coping with the
superior form and experience of
the "B" team.

Michigan Nine Bats
at .243 Pace; Artz
in First With .434
Batting averages including all
games played up until Saturday by
the Michigan nine show that Avon
Artz, slugging outfielder whom
Coach Ray Fisher has used on and
off so far, is leading his teammates
with a ma rk of .434, having been
at bat 23 times for 9 hits and 10
runs. Artz also holds the top mark
for batting in any-one game, with
four hits in live times up in the
game with St. Paul's (Rikkio) of
Tokio last Wednesday.
Following Artz is Art Superko,
veteran third baseman, with an
average of .340. Tompkiis with
.285 and Waterbor with .277 have
third and fourth positions.
Artz's 10 runs aso hold the lead
in that division. Superko has 16
safe hits to his credit to pace the
total-hit column.
Ken Manuel has the best defen-
sive record of the regular infielders,
making only one slip in 99 chances,
which goes a long way toward mak-
ing up for his low hitting figure of
.196. Mike Diffley is another strong
player on the defense whose batting
has been definitely inferior this
year. Diffley has had three errors
against him while accepting 65
chances. He is seventh in the bat-
ting average list with a percentage
of .216. The batting average of the
entire team is .243.
