THE ATICHItG.A D' tlL'Y" iYrMAI _________________ I SUNDAi~ ,t _ _. From the PRESS BOX By John Thomas Professor Aigler Jack Slater Column Ends? ? ? * * * ICHIGAN'S athletic head, Ralph. Aigler, chairman of the Board of thletics, is also Chairmahi of the aculty committee of the Big Ten, cceeding T. H.French of Ohio tate in the position. We wonder just what this means regard to changing the Confer- ice rule on post-season football Imes. At the last meeting of the aculty committee, the most im- rtant question was whether the le would be changed. It was post- ned until the regular Spring meet- Professor Aigler was elected to this st Dec. 3 yet no correspondent Ann Arbor knew it until last ght. The way it was found out was at a story came through from Iowa ty regarding the eligibility of Break d Blackmere, the two Hawkeye .sketball stars. In the story was a ention of the fact that word had en received from Chairman Aigler, io took a mail vote upon the ques- in. We called him up and he could t deny it.

Lowrey Trmhs Yearing Squad Tllo 14,Players LOSE A FIGHT and win a girl-is Jack Slater's formula. The rea- son why big Jack Slater, one of the best amateur heavyweights in the country, lost his bout in the semi- finals of the National A. A. U. tour- nament last spring has never been announced. But it might be attributed to the chance in the matrimonial world that he took and perhaps the old fighting mind had softer thoughts in that crucial battle in the semi- finals. T HE HANDWRITING is on the wall for us. Maybe ineligibility may strike others also. They say that the handwriting is on thewall for two members of the hockey team. Coach Mann may draw a few shocks out of the bag of final grades also. Cappon is worrying about several of his cagers. And so it goes all down the list of athletes this -year. And we wondered why it was that year after year, it is the athletes who are worrying about marks at the end of each semester. The blow may strike where the least expected, as in the case of Zit Tessmer last sum- mer. IOPING to be back next semester. If not sincere regards to all. By CHARLES Ai BAIRD When Coach Eddie Lowrey, pop- ular hockey mentor, issued his first call for freshman puck material he was met with a horde of some 50 aspiring skaters. Anyone of less ex- perience might have thought the an- swer to a coach's dream, but Low- rey, having tutored yearling teams for some time, knew that the ma- jority of material would prove worthless. Some were out for the fun of it, others in order to get excused from Phys. Ed. classes and still others -- the minority - to play hockey. After two or three boistrous prac- tices the chaff had been eliminated. Then Lowrey settled down to the serious business of moulding future ice stars. The squad now numbers 14, and out of this group a few have shown possibilities. Charles Hoyt, Finlay McQueen, Bill Onderdonk, Lawrence David, Bob King, and Parker Stet- son have been performing well at forward positions, while Gordon Schroeder appears to hold the edge on the goalies. Squad Will Practice Varsity The squad is completed with Mul- ligan, Etchelles, and Reading, de- fense, Klene, a forward, and Schauer a ' d Tarbox, goalies. These will be retpined for the remainder of the season, at the close of which the outsta :ding men will be chosen to drill with the Varsity in post-sea- son practices. Up to the present time players who have made the squad have been picked for their ability to skate and hold their sticks. Quoting Lowrey, "When a man goes out for hockey and starts skating around with the stick under his arm, or holding it in one hand vhen he starts to carry the puck he wen't ido. The first thing he must learn to do is to acquire bal- ance. We do not have time to teach a man to ski: e as well as play hockey." Mu: Replace Veterans A serious responsibility rests on the shoulders of this year's freshman squad. They must produce someone to take the places vacated by Co- Captains Beid and Crossman who graduate in June. Lowrey's pessimistic prediction is that "Michigan will be a long time getting mcn to replace Reid and Crossman. There are none on the present freshman squad." But inas- much as he aired the same views last year, and then came through with Johnny's Jewell and Sherf, hockey enthusiasts may maintain hope. Kipke To Issue First Grid Call In 2 Weeks Pucksters To Have Three Practices A Week For Examination Period Tech Looks Strong Miners Defeat 'Wisconsin Twice- Feature Speed In Forward Line Michigan's Varsity hockey team will start out the second semester with a bang, as four games are scheduled for the first six nights of the semester. On the evening of Mon- day, Feb.-" 13, the Wolverines will play host to the sextet . representing the Michigan College of Mines of Hough- ton, Michigan. The Techmen have shown plenty of power this year, winning a brace of games from the University of Wis- consin at 4 to 0 and 5 to 0 on the thirteenth and fourteenth of this month. Their defeats of the Badgers, who will be here on Friday and Sat- urday night of the same week, stamp them as worthy foemen for the Wolves. Team Will Practice Meanwhile, the Wolves will prac- tice three nights a week to prepare for the onslaught of the Miners, the Badgers and the Gophers who come in rapid succession. Coach Ed Low- rey of the Michigan team contem- plates a shift in lineup to strengthen the Maize and Blue defense. John Sherf will be placed at right defense, with Chapman moving over to his usual left defense position. Thus David, whose defe:2se has been outstanding all season, will be able to fall back from the right wing posi- tion to aid Sherf, who is inexperi- enced as a defenseman. Reid's fractured hand has already healed to the point where he can take shots at the net, while Cross- man is recovering speed and form lost in an illness just after the holi- days. Tech Has Stars Speed, stamina, and aggressiveness characterize the play ofthe Tech outfit, according to reports received yesterday. Croze, at left wing, is one of their outstanding men, and Cap- tain Jacobson, right defense is rep- uted to be an accurate shot. Ferries at right wing has received much fa- vorable comment in the press, and Maki, the goal tender, stars consist- ently. Tech also boasts a "Pony Express" trio of forwards comprised of Weal- ton, Latimer, and La Mothe. This group alternates with the regular front line as a speed feature. The contest marks the first game in years between Michigan and Michigan Tech. Athletic relations were sus- pended due to an attack on the ref- eree by a member of the Tech team which ended in a free-for-all. Probable Lineups Michigan Tech Jewell ...........G..........

Chapman, Babe Ruth, Gehrg Are Yankee Holdouts NEW YORK, Jan. 28.--'P)-Ben Chapman, the Alabama flier, has re- turned his contract to the New York Yankees, unsigned, thereby joining Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig as hold- outs, but Secretary Ed Barrow today declined to comment on the fleet outfielder's differences with the club. Chapman was reported to have been asked to take a $2,000 "cut," but Barrow would not conform this. So far as is officially known, how- ever, all members of the world cham- pions except Manager Joe McCarthy, John Allen and Vernon Gomez were asked to take "cuts" ranging from $500 to the Babe's $25,000. Chapman retained his title as the American League's leading base run- ner in 1932, but his performances in this specialty as well as in batting fell off. He stole 28 bases as com- pared with 61 the year before and batted .299 as compared with .315 for 1931. , e n1,t~ L1 ersI j y 0I Pennsylvania; Glenn Cunningham, of Kansas University, and Eric Ny, of Sweden, match strides in the Wanamaker m.le, feature event of the Millrose games at Madison Square Garden. New York. Venzke, the Pennsylvania antelope, holds the indoor mile record of 4:10; Cunningham is the N. C. A. A. mile -hampion with 4:11.1 to his credit, ad NY is Sweden's outstanding1,- 500-meter runner. The flying Swede with the short name ran at the Olympic Games in Los Angeles and placed fifth in the 1,500 meters, between Cunningham, fourth, and Pen Hallowell. He won the Swedish 1,500-meter champion- ship in 1931 in 3:58.8 and last year turned in 3:55.5. He is believed good for 4:12, or therabouts, in the mile. If the long, lean Venzke has re- turned to the indoor form he flashed last year, as a 21-year high school boy, the experts elieve he will bet- ter his 4:10 record when paced by such formidable opponents as Ny and Cunningham. There's one school of track follow- ers who would not be surprised to see both Venzke and Ny take the dust of Cunningham's heels as they swing around the oval.
