The unbeaten Wol-. -erines will meet the Dearborn Flyer of the Michigan-Ontario League on the Coliseum ice. With co-captain Keith Crossma in the Health Service and out of the ine-up the Michigan sextet will be considerably weakened, but Coach Ed Lowery anticipates putting a trong team on the ice regardless. The Dearborn Flyers, although not the strongest. team in the M-O League, have participated in some fast games this season, and can be depended upon to furnish stiff oppo- sition for.the University players. They have in their line-up two Italian players, Greco and. Latva, who are reputed to be plenty fast on -any manl's rink. Hockey enthusiasts ,are said to have a treat in store for them. :,em.Dearborn Is Individual The Ford City pucksters play a back-checking game but resort to in- diviual hockey instead of team work, according to advance reports. This type of play, although not al- ways the best, results in fast con- tests, with many thrills. Coach Lowery announced that Artz wil replace Crossman in the starting lineup for Michigan. There will be n other changes, and Jewell will be at goal, Chapman and Sherf at de- fense, Reid and David on the wings. So far ten matches with college teams have been booked for this sea- son for the Wolverine ice team, and It is likely that other matches will be arranged, both with college teams -and sextets from the Michigan-On- tariQ League.

Michigan To Meet HAwkeyes Jan. 6 With Michigan's Conference bas- ketball schedule opening in only two 4ys against the University of Iowa quintet, Coach Cappon sent his full Varsity squad through a long scrim- mage against the freshman team yesterday, afternoon. Several new types of offense are beifg experimented with at present in an effort to increase the scoring ability of the team as a whole. To date the average score per game imade by the local five has been 24 pints,- which is below the standard ticipatd by Coach Cappon. The samge five that started against Syracuse Monday night, consisting :f Eveland, Plummer, garner, Al- Atenhof, and Petrie, lined up against -the freshman team in the first of tree 20-minute scrimmages. The Varsity started the scoring and w&r never headed during the entire pe- siod, which ended 19 to 6 ia theii favor. Levine, Evans, Miller, Ford aoid McCallum were used by Coacit Uisher as the first string freshman team. in the second and third 20-minute scrimmages, numerous shifts were made on both the freshman and Var- sity teams, every man on both squad{. playing. A team composed of Black Regeczi, Wistert, Oliver, and Petri formed an outfit that showed con- :siderable scoring punch in defeating the freshman team 24 to 10. The play of the Michigan tcani against Syracuse was a vast improve- .ment over that shown in previous games, and proved that the Wolve-. rine quintet will have to be reckonec with when the Big Ten schedule get: into full swing. Dick Degener, premier Michigan diver and holder of national honors, has signified his intention of com- peting in the open swimming meet here Jan. 13.

Big Ten Teams All Beaten A s Prelimns Close CHICAGO, Jan. 4.- (P)- As the heavy barrage from preliminary bat- tles lifted over the Big Ten basket- ball front today not a single Confer- ence team was left standing without defeat. The toll of defeats, probably the 'weaviest in 10 years of pre-Confer- ence warfare, showed 19 setbacks for the Big Ten Teams as against 31 victories. Out of it all, the opinion became more definite that a sizzling fight for Conference honors .was in the offing with Ohio State, North- western, and Purdue the. principal contenders. Iowa was the last Big Ten team to fall as the pre-Conference schedule closed. Although strengthened by the last-minute return to duty of Ivan Blackmer and Edward Break, the Hawkeyes. met unexpected power in North Dakota State and fell, 17 to 21. The Nodaks came from behind in the closing minutes with a nine-point rush to give the Hawks their first defeat of the season. Two other Conference teams, Wis- consin and Indiana, closed the pre- Conference schedule in defeat while Illinois wound up with a 39 to 28 triumph over the University of De- troit, which tackled Big Ten basket- ball opposition for the first time. Marquette dropped Wisconsin for the second time this season in much easier fashion than the first game, 22 to 16, as Miami Uiiversity stopped Indiana, 33 to 29. Six teams-Ohio State, Northwest- ern, Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota and Purdue--finished with preliminary game records of four victories and oe defeat; Indiana won three and lost two; Wisconsin lost three out of five; while Michigan and . Chicago shared the "cellar" with one victory and four defeats each. The record of Ohio State, Purdue and Northwestern looked alike. The Buckeyes lost their second game of the season by two points to Ohio Wesleyan and then came back with surprising power to defeat Notre Dame, Kentucky and Vanderbilt. Purdue swept out victory in its first four games against Miami, St. Louis, Notre Dame and Wabash and then took one on the chin from Pittsburgh. Northwestern lost its only game to Notre Dame, beating Bradley, Mar- quette, Pittsburgh, and Notre Dame in a return game. So it was a case >f taking your pick as the Confer- 3nce campaign neared the inaugural Saturday night.

Yet it seems to me that Mich- igan again has a quarterback worthy of consideration for this greatest of athletic honors. "Harry Newman has unquestionably been the most valuable quarter- back among the Maize and Blue gridders since Benny Friedman's gradua- tion. Whether,.or not he was a greater player than his illustrious predeces- sor is a moot point. "In previous years various sports authorities have named Friedman to fill the honor post, but in the last season a comparison of records gives Newman the advantage.
