- THE MICHIGAN DAILY Tolverine Pucksters To Meet St. Mary's In Arena Here Tonig E - -_._. -_____..___...__ Minnesota Ice Outfit Arrivest Holds Pr ae tiee FROM THE PRESS BOX By JOHN THOMAS 199 Enter Open Swim Meet To Be Held Tonight Cappon Holds Scrimmage For Illini Contest Arrange Scisedules For All-Round Man MICHIGAN WILL PLAY ITS HARDEST foe of the year on the ice tonight when St. Marys of Minnesota invade the Arena, according to advance notices from the cold north. The Northern 'Giants are being considered stronger than Minnesota although they have not played as yet. The Northern Giants will test the Wolverines as never before with their complete front walls and two sets of defense men. The team is the North's pride and is being sent against the best in the East, Harvard, Dartmouth, Yale, Princeton, within the next two weeks. Most of the players hail from the Dominion although a few are American born. Michigan's hockey has risen in the last six years until now it can rival any other amateur team when only first teams are considered. If hockey Will Be 'TomiICni's I First In I Public Appearance Intramural Pool I. were played withiout substitutions the Maize and Blue pucksters could prob-i ably beat most teams, including St.- Marys, Dartmouth, Harvard, Yale,1 McGill, etc. But other teams have1 three complete sets of players to match Coach Eddie Lowrey's one. That is the weakness.1 The man who has made Michigani a name to be considered in hockey! circles is Edward Lowrey, coach. Af-1 ter refereeing several hockey games here in the Arena, Lowrey signed up as coach and director of the Arenar six years ago. He had a bad first year, but since his teams have steadily improved un- til this year they have reached the highest point ever attained by a Maize and Blue sextet. He's been interested in hockey from the literal beginning. He played his first when he was three years old, up in Ottawa, whence he came. "Up there they put a hockey stick in a babys hands instead of a bottle," he explains.j Coach Lowrey has six brothers, who il tower over six feet and who are ,nd were whiz hockey players. :ockey and lacrosse are Eddie's fav- >rites. He played lacrosse for five years for Ottawa and several seasons on the hockey team as a defense- man. The principle reason for Michigan's rise in hockey material, or so Low- rey says. Yost says different. His tnswer is Edward Lowrey, the man vho forsees a brilliant future for the auck game at Michigan which he ,onsiders the "FASTER" sport of this generation. MICHIGAN LEADS ALL Conference rivals in titles won and can truthfully be called, "Champions of the West." But in the one department other Conference schools can take command of the leadership. That is in sportsmanship at basketball games. The booing at Michigan's home court games has advanced to such a point that every other school in the league knows that when they come to Ann Arbor they enter the lion's den of partisianship. When Illinois comes here Saturday they will be struck with the number of medals, honors, awards, and rat- ings that is going to be awarded be- tween halves. These honors were made on the gridiron by a winning team whose followers did not have a chance of being unsportsmanlike. But it is safe to say that "Trophy Night" will be marred with consist- ent booing by Michigan Students who fail to see close decisions the same way that the referees see them. Any two people, sitting side by side, wll see a close decision in two dffer- ent ways. Their interpretations will differ and each will read into the happenings just what they want to see happen. Anyone can imagine how an Illinois student and a Michi- gan student will differ on a close one. Each will want something to happen and will think that it did. But the referee is closest of all. He is in the best possible position to see the close ones. If his present posi- tion on the playing floor isn't best, he would be changed so that it was. And incidentally he isn't allowed to officiate a game unless -he has the backing of the two rival coaches, each of whom has seen him work at least 50 games. But still students will boo decisions that do not favor Mich- igan and they will drag the Wolver- ine rating in sportsmanship down even further. BOB HAWKINS, very capable sport editor of the Daily Illini writes the following in his column: "Always at .this time of the year, after Prof. Frank G. Dickinson of the college of commerce announces his national football rating, he is be- seiged with telegrams and letters from those dissatisfied with his selec- tions. Here's what Lynn Atkinson paid good money for to wire Dickin- son from the Pacific coast: YOU WIN THE CORNCOB MEDAL WITH THREE CORN STALKS ATTACKED STOP REAL S P O R T SM E N EVERYWHERE WILL CONDEMN YOUR ACTION STOP FIGURES DON'T LIE BUT DON'T BOTHER SHOWING YOUR FIGURES STOP YOUR FRIENDS WILL UNDERSTAND BUT THE PUBLIC WON'T PAY ANY AT- TENTION TO YOUR FIGURES ANYWAY STOP BELIEVE EVEN PITTSBURGH MIGHT BE SPORTSMANLIKE ENOUGH TO LET MICHIGAN HAVE THE NEW YEARS GAME IF YOUR FAVOR- ITE WILL PLAY STOP GIVE MY REGARDS, TO THE BEST. OF THE NARROW MINDED MIDDLE WESTERNERS. The nearest thing possible to 200 swimmers-199 swimmers will com- pete tonight in the first.open swim- ming meet for both men and women ever held in the Intramural Pool. The largest entry was in the 25- yard race for boys under 12, with 38 names sent in. The 50-yard free-style for men attracted the next largest number, 32, entries. Twenty entiies were received in both the 50-yard breast- and back-stroke events for men, while 19 men entered the 220- yard free-style. There were also 19 entries for the girls' 50-yard open event, while the 50-yard race for boys under 18 drew 17. The 25-yard race for girls under 14 attracted 14 entries, and the 25- yard event for boys between 12 and 14 brought 11 entries. Ten hopefuls decided to pit them- selves against Dick Degener in the diving contest. Coach Mann Pleased Coach Matt Mann was highly pleased with the number and quality of the entries and predicted a most successful show. Before taking hL team to Battle Creek yesterday for an exhibition swim in that city, he started the task of setting the handi- caps for all swimmers. In this wa)- it is expected to minimize the better swimmers' advantage and make every race a thriller. Enough temporary bleachers have been erected around the pool to seat approximately 300 spectators. Admis- sion charges have been set at 24 cents for adults and 10 cents for children. The meet is scheduled to start, at 7:30 p. in., and will continue until champions have been crowned in each event. In an effort to better the formt shown by the Wolverine cagers inE Monday's 22 to 17 defeat by Illinois, Coach "Cappy" Cappon put his squad through an intensive scrim-. mage last night at the field house. The first team lined up the same j way as at Champaign, with Plummer and Eveland playing forward, Gar-. ner at center, and Petoskey and Al- tenhof at the guard positions.dThis= lineup is the one expected to startC the game Saturday night, when Michigan plays a return battle withl the Illinois outfit. Illinois is at present tied with Wis- consin for the Conference lead, each team having won two games. Illinois upset Northwestern before takingI Michigan, while Wisconsin has beaten Chicago and Iowa. The Suck- ers will bring a big, fast team to Ann Arbor, including a sprinter and two grid men. Four of the regulars are over six feet tall, and as a re- sult they excel in taking the ball off the backboard. The visiting team is also profi- cient in foul shooting, having made 10 out of 14 Monday night. In this -espect the Wolverines are very poor. ro date the Michigan passing attack ias satisfied Coach Cappon, but the ;otal of field goals has not been high nough. The absence of Williamson from ->asketball is beginning to be felt. larner and Petoskey could not hold I 3ennett of Illinois, and he scored our field goals and five free throws Vonday for a total of 13 points. Last year, in two games, Ivan the Ter- -ible held the same Bennett to three >oints, while scoring several himself. Lineup For First Fencing Meet Set George^Musso1s greatest burden is his 265 pounds of physique, but he handles this bulk with such facility that he is considered the outstanding all-around athlete in Illinois collegi- ate circles. Musso has romped up and down gridirons, basketball courts, baseball diamonds and cindered fields of Illi- nois college campuses for four years and has become a star in each of four sports in which he participates. At present he is the bulwark of James Millikin University's basket- ball team's defense. He played tackle on Millikin's foot- ball team and captained the eleven through a successful Illinois Inter- collegiate Conference season last fall. In the spring Musso attends to the catching duties on the varsty base- ball team-but puts in his spare time throwing the javelin and discus aid putting the shot for the track squad. In fact, he is so valuable to both these springtime squads that Mlli- kin officials try to arrange the base- ball and track schedules to allow him' a maximum of opportuity to com- pete in each sport. Admission prices for Big Ten bas- ketball games range from 40 cents at Michigan, Indiana, and Iowa, to $1.10 at Wisconsin. The lowest prices for non-Conference games are found at Iowa, where the general admission price is 25 cents. Regulars Meet Freshman Mat Hopefuls Toda: Fifteen of the leading candidat for Michigan's Varsity wrestli: team will meet a test today in t: meet between the regulars and t freshman squad. Two bouts will held at one time, the first pair star ing at 4 p. m. The meet is to be hE in the wrestling room of the Intr mural Building. There is a possibility that Capte Blair Thomas will clash with Ausi Fiero in the 135-pound event, F is the state A. A. U. title-holder this weight class, and Thomas, a v+ eran of two years, is a wrestler known ability. The outcome of the meet may hi settle the personnel of the sqi: which will face Michigan State in I first meet of the season next Sati day. Joe Oakley is certain to be idle, he is resting his leg. Other than ti the veterans are in perfect sha However, knowing the prowess of experienced men, Coach Cliff KE may prefer to send men that h; seen little action into competiti with an eye to ascertaining t- true value.

Quoting from indignant Mr. Atkin- son's wire, "figures don't lie;" and the figures put Michigan on top. * *~ * Adherents of Southern Califor- nia should kick. Last year the Tro- jans ranked first under the Dickin- son rating system even though they lost a game." rED PETOSKEY, local grid and court luminary, seems to go by various names throughout the coun- try. Over a recent broadcast of the popular song, "The All-American Girl," he was called Joe Petoskey, and a Cleveland paper persists in laud- ing him as Pete Petoskey. Incidental- ly, Newman, Friedman, and Eliowitz are featured in tie same ditty, orig- inally written by a Michigander.
