TIE MICHIGAN DAILY Ypsi Tracksters To Meet Wolves Ward Places Second In Century At Drake Relays PRESS BOX By John Thomas In Opener Today Ferry Field To Be Scene Of Meet; Identification Cards Necessary To Start At Four B. B. Receipts Up Spring Football Sport Shots * * * LLOTSON'S r e - Ieipts from the two I ig home baseball lames has assumed i total that rivals 4' that for all of last year, $21. The Illinois game nade twice as much money for the Ath- letic Associaiton as 'iie opening game did last year although the price had been slashed to 25 cents. The Mich. igan State game last Saturday drew about $80 whereas the same game last year netted only $30. The baseball team takes the road today for 'a one-day stand in Ypsi, returning home to clash with Hills- dale tomorrow, resting one day and then journeying to Kalamazoo to play Western State Friday and con- tinuing on to Chicago to meet the Maroons Saturday. ' Next Tuesday Western State will play a return game here and on Fri- day and Saturday, Ohio State will furnish the opposition for two games on Ferry Field. CHICK MEEHAN, now athletic di- rector of Manhattan College, brings up a nice question with his statement recently that, "The best football teams of the future will come from the South, because cli- matic conitions allow longer spring practice." Spring drill has long been recog- nized by football coaches and has become a standard feature at all leading colleges. Without the pres- sure of next Saturday's game ever in front of the coaches, they have a chance to pick out their most prom- ising recruits, both freshmen and former reserves, without making any concessions of filling positions with men who will do. They give the newcomer an excel- lent chance to become acquainted with "the fundamentals, taking his time learning them thoroughly with- out pressure of approaching sched- ules, and the system preferred by the particular coach., Spring practice serves yet another good-that of experience. Possibly it is one of the best ways to build ex- perience. There is. no hurrying to half-learn plays. All the time that is needed is there and many football players are of the plugging type that need a long time to learn, but once it is mastered they are letter-perfect. Frequent scrimmages lead up to the "big game" at the end of the spring drills. Michigan has had three or four major scrimmages this year and the "big game" comes next Saturday. However, spring practice might be continued all summer, as in the case of Southern California last year. Captain Tage Brown, that great half of a still greater tackle combination,' spent the greater part of the summer doing nothing but work out in shorts and cleated shoes with the other members of the Trojans' squad and whether it was Brown or the pre- season training that did it, the effect was devastating to some opposing lines. The Big Ten will not allow all- summer practice, but the players arc expected to return in excellent shape in the fall. The organization also has definite rules as to the length of the spring season. But Michigan has added another feature to the usually staid spring drills-the Chicago Alumni Trophy The freshman .. whose attendance a1 is regular, whose a b i i t y shows promise, w h o s e n ;5. manner and atti- tude is above re- - proach, is the dis- tinguished winner at the end of each spring's season. Last year Jerry Ford won it and Herman Everhardus the year before. Zit Tessmer was the winner the year before that and Sol Hudson preceded him. There are three methods of rat- ing Michigan grid men. One is whether he was captain or not. An- other is his All-American, All-Con- ference honors, if any. The third is whether he won the Alumni Cup or not. * * * Indiana has a Big Ten title race all its own with its squad of football candidates broken up into different teams. Minnesota, Purdue, and Wisconsin are leading the league. They failed to name a team "Michi- gan." Dick Degener not only successfully defended his indoor high-board div- Dc Baker, Ward, And Others To Star Wolverine F'eature Card Wolverine tracksters will inaugurate their home season at 4 p. m. today when they clash with Michigan State Normal College on Ferry Field. Coach Charlie Hoyt has entered his entire squad against the Ypsilanti invad- ers and a close meet is in prospect. This afternoon's engagement will be one of the two opportunities that Wolverine track followers will have to see the Michigan squad in action. Saturday's meet with Ohio State will mark their only other local ap- pearance. One of the greates cinder teams in Michigan track history will take the field against the Hurons. Cap- tained by Charlie DeBaker, the Wol- verines number in their roster a gal- axy of stars. De- Baker, an o u t - standing threat in the 440-yard dash placed second in the Conference in- door meet, andle the Wolves' mile relay team to victory at Drake Sat- urday. Willis Ward, spectacular "One- Man Track Team," will be making his first home .stand, as a Varsity representative. He is slated for a husy afternoon -as -he, is- entered in the high jump, the 100-yard dash, the high hurdles and the broad jump. . . . , Turner Half-Mile Favorite Ned Turner, -half-mile star, will be running in competition on Ferry Field for th6 first time since the Olympic tryouts last year. He is entered in the 880-yard run with Braden, Lemen, and Freeze, and is a favorite to cop this event. Hawley Egleston, point-winner in the recent Drake Relays, is entered in both the high and low hurdles. He will be assisted by Boyd Pant- lind, Grand Rapids sophomore, who is making his first home appearance. Haefele and Ward are Michigan's other hurdle entrants. "Doe" Howell is the Wolverines' outstanding threat in the mile run. The senior cross-country captain has been showing excellent form of late, and should give Zepp of the Hurons a battle royal. Childs and McManus are his supporting cast. Heston And Kemp Dash Threats Jack Heston and Cass Kemp are entered in both the 100 and 220- yard dash events. Hill and McMillan are the outstanding contenders in the two-mile. Blumenfeld and Danim are prominent in the shot put. Ypsilanti boasts Tom Quinn in the half-mile, Zepp in the distances, Captain McKinley and Lowry in the pole vault, Eugene Beatty in the hurdles, and several other national- ly-prominent tracksters. Student identification cards are good for admittance to the meet. Tentative Date Set For Trophy Award May 10 will probably be the date for the presentation of the Chicago Alumni Trophy to the most promis- ing freshman in spring football practice, Coach Harry Kipke said yesterday. This date is only a tenta- tive selection as yet. Among the prominent candidates for the cup are the following fresh- men: Remias, Johnson, Malashevich, Stone, Wells, Bolis, Dauksza, and James. Representatives of the Chicago chapter of the Alumni Association, which donates the trophy each year, will come to Ann Arbor to make the presentation. It is awarded to the outstanding freshman of the year. the selection being based, on general ability, attitude, and attendance at practice. t Gerald Ford, '35, received the award last year, and Herman Ever- hardus, '34, received it the year before. BOILERMAKERS CARRY MUD In wet weather, Purdue locker room attendants remove daily two five gallon buckets of mud which is carried in by the football squad. -Associated Press Photo Willis Ward, Michigan's second Eddie Tolan, covered the 100-yard stretch and came in second to Jtalph Metcalfe, Marquette's great sprinter and the title-holder, at the annual Drake Relays. The time was only 1-5 second slower than his record of last year. Left to right at the finish: Colletti of Loyola, Hall of Kansas, Metcalfe of Marquette, Ward of Michigan, Cox of Oklahoma, Huffman of Iowa Wesleyan, and Smith of Drake. Wolves To Play Third Game Of Ypsilanti Series Patchin To Start h n Box For Michigan; Lineup Remains Unchanged Opening the stiffest week of the baseball season Michigan's nine will journey to Ypsilanti this afternoon for the third game in its series with Michigan State Normal College. The Wolverines have captured both of the previous contests which were played last week on Ferry Field, and will be seeking their third consecu- tive vicory over the Hurons. Art Patchin and Whitey Wistert, who hurled rather mediocre ball against Michigan State Saturday, should draw today's pitching assign- ment, with Patchin opening the game on the mound. Lineup Unchanged Although the lineup which will start the game is ;the same one which faced the Spartans last Sat- urday, Coach Ray Fisher declared he was disappointed with the hit- ting in the last game. Michigan col- lected but seven base hits, Artz and Petoskey getting three apiece. Milton Mott, whom the Maize- and-Blue hitters drove from the box in Monday's game against M. S. N. C., is slated again to do the hurling, although he has been suffering from a sore arm, and a last-minute shift may send Tomi Quinlan, who was beaten inda pitching duel on Friday, to the box. Paulson Still Out With Clayt Paulson still on the injured list as a result of Friday's game, in which he broke his thumb, Russ Oliver will again be at third base. In addition Fred Ratterman, Johnny Regeezi, and Hal Roehrig are expected to break into the lineup in the later stages of the game. The lineup follows: Michigan M. S. N. C. Artz, rf Batterson, 3b Waterbor, 2b Wittkop, ss Braendle, If Cohen, lb Petoskey, cf Seitz, rf Diffley, c F. Worzniak, 2b Teitelbaum, ss J. Worzniak, If Manuel, lb Gruber, cf Oliver, 3b Packard, c Patchin, p Mott, p Brit ish IWo i (loffers Call Courses 'Too Long LONDON, May 1.-01-American women are keener than English girls on golf. They seem to think golf, talk golf, and even dream golf, ac- cording to Miss Dix Perkins, a mem- ber of the British women's team back after an American tour. The British women had only one criticism to make of their tour; that the golf courses on which they played are too long for women. Micligan Net Squad To Mee Spartans Here .Michigan's Varsity tennis team will be seeking its third successive s victory of the season in its match b today with the strong Michigan State aggregation, scheduled for 3 p. m. on the Ferry Field courts. It will be the fourth match of the year for the Spartan netters who have an overwhelming win over Kalamazoo and matches with Ypsi- lanti and Notre Dame already under their belts. Coach John Johnstone feels that the Wolverines, rapidly gaining con- fidence after scoring wins over De- troit Tennis Club and Western State Teachers College of Kalamazoo, are developing into a powerful club and, though advance dope gives State the victory, hopes to see his youngsters come through. Comparative records give State a decided edge since they shut out the Western State Teachers, 9 to 0, a week ago while the Wolverines had to be satisfied with a scant 4 to 3 victory over the same aggregation last week. Seymour Seigel, sophomore sensa- tion, will probably meet Al Weitz, Spartan ace, in the feature match of the afternoon. Johnstone plans to stick to the team that turned back Kalamazoo Saturday using, besides Seigel, Cap- tain Dick Snell, Nisen, and Baldwin. The Spartans will use the same lineu that has turned in such in- pressive showings so far, using Weitz, Norris, Link, Goodwin and Stone- breaker. Golfers To Tekl wildcats Tomorrow The Varsity golf team under Coach Trueblood left early this morning for Evanston to encounter North- western tomorrow in its first Con- ference meet of the season. The easy manner in which they defeated State 24 to 3 last Satur- day has raised their morale a great deal, although they do expect a tough mnatch from the Wildcats. Johnny Fischer will play his usual No. 1 po- sition with Ed Dayton at No. 2, Cap- tain Jolly at No. 3, and Markham No. 4. Markham, due to his consist- ent play last week and his good showing Saturday, has beaten out Carol Sweet and George David for the No. 4 post.
