THE MICHIGAN DAILY PLAY & BY- PLAY Michigan Begins Preparation For Illinois Contest, ... Returns To Lineup '-By AL NEWMAN-t The Game ... The Victors... NOW THE CHICAGO SPORTS WRITERS have shifted definitely from Purdue at last and are singing the praises of the Wolverines in no uncertain terms. And even at that, they didn't see Michigan at the peak. There was something of a let down after the O. S. U. game last week, and it could easily be sensed throughout the contest. Even at that, Michigan was easily the best team the Windy City scribes had seen, and I venture to predict, will see, this year of grace. Chicago had a pretty good offense. There was no denying that. Several times they shook runners loose into the Maize and Blue secondary, which is a rare sight this season. What's more they got off some successful end runs as Petoskey's bruises ap- parently slowed him up somewhat. Michigan smashed away at the tackles throughout most of the con- test, with varying success. During the first quarter; the blocking was splen- did; then a lot of bad breaks and the wear and tear of the game started to take it out of the Wolver- ines and the offense didn't look so well. In fact, Chicago put up a pretty good fight during the third and the fourth quarters as Michigan waves surged up to the ten and fifteen yard lines only to lose the ball on downs, sometimes by inches and fractions of inches. Chicago was certainly well-schooled against the lateral-pass play around end, with Fay shooting the ball to Everahrdus. That play gained almost at will against Cornell, but Chicago held it to a negative yardage. There was always a Maroon player camp- ing right there in front of Everhard- us ready to spill him. ** * MAYBE YOU DON'T THINK "The Victors" was featured in Chica- go last week end. The first thing I heard on Saturday morning was Michigan's "Fighting Hundred" play- ing it out in front of the Hotel Win- dermere. Incidentally, the band was great. Then, on the way over to the game, the echoes of Michigan's fight song reverberated among the buildings of Chicago's Midway region as the band went over to the game. And of course, the Michigan band roared the grand old song as they took the field before the contest. There was a big surprise as Chica- go's musical organization character- istically attired in Maroon sweaters and flannels half-marched, half-ran up the gridiron frenziedly playing "The Victors" again. And then, of course, the song was again in order at the half with a great Michigan team leading 14-0 ... and the band again played it leaving the field with a 28-0 victory hung up for the Wolverines. I stayed in the Pressbox for about 45 minutes after the final gun. Leav- ing the field, I heard the solemn chimes of the stately University of Chicago Carrillon giving a sedate rendition of "The Victors." X-COUNTRY SEASON SHORT Michigan harriers have two meets remaining on their list before the season is ended. Next Saturday they run against Ypsilanti over on the Normal course, and the following week Ypsi comes here. Zuppke Throw Against Is Expected To Passing Attack Wolverines ' Wistert Hurts Eye Ideal Practicing Weather Greets Squad For This Week's First Workout Preparation for the Illinois en- counter commenced last night on Ferry Field, with Michigan's poten- tial "Champions of the West" run- ning through a long drill on pass defense. For the first time in weeks the Varsity squad was greeted with ideal practice weather. A little too warm, if anything, it induced a most spir- ited drill. Optimism prevailed in the Wolverine camp, contrasting greatly with last week's apparent lethargic attitude. After a week's let down, the squad is apparently on the up grade. The team got through the Chicago game rather luckily in respect to in- juries. Whitey Wistert with a cut over his eye and a sprained ankle, and Bill Borgmann with an injured arm, were the only near-casualties. To counteract the absence of Wis- tert and Borgmann from active prac- tice, Jack Heston and Ted Petoskey, on the injured list last week, were back in the line-up yesterday. Kipke Dissatisfied Before practice, Coach Kipke ex- pressed dissatisfaction with the team's performance against the Ma- roons. "They were good in spots," he said, "but terrible at other times. It was just laziness, that's all." The answer is that they reached a peak against Ohio State, and a let-down was only natural against Chicago. Coach Wally Weber is in the spot- light this week, having scouted all the Illinois games this season. While he drilled the frosh on Illinois plays. Coach Oosterbaan conducted the re- serve attack against the Varsity. Bill Renner, in imitation Jack Bey- non, Illinois' star passer, aimed a barrage of passes at the first team with some success. The waterboy was the most popu- lar member of the staff yesterday due to the weather, but Kipke laid down the ultimatum that "no pass interceptions, no water." The reserve attackimmediately ran up against difficulties. Louie Westover was at quarter the most of the afternoon, Heston and Everhardus at the halves and Regec- zi at full. The line consisted of Pe- toskey, Hildebrand, Savage, Bernard, Kowalik, Austin and Ward. - Everhardus Leads Big Ten Scorers CHICAGO, Oct. 30.-(P)-Booting two extra points and scoring one touchdown against Chicago, Herman Everhardus, the fleet Michigan half- back, today continued to lead the Big Ten individual scorers with a. total of 49 points. Although he or his team has failed to score in the last two games, Jay Berwanger, of Chicago, holds second place with 35 points. Johnny Laws, of Iowa, didn't score against Minne- sota, but he holds third place with 24 points. Wetzel, of Ohio State, is in fourth place and four are tied for fifth with 18. Michigan's slashing halfback, who has been on the bench with a side injury, is back in uniform and ex- pected to start Saturday against Il- linois. Cagers Report To Cappon For First Workout Fourteen men, including three let- ter-men and two reserve award win- ners responded last night to Coach Franklin C. Cappon's first call for varsity basketball material for the 1933-34 team. The squad will con- tinue to work out in the Intramural Gym four nights a week until after football season. Cappon is pessimistic about the prospects for the early season games, since but one of the fourteen men who reported last night was a guard and consequently cannot see any chance of working extensively on any style of offense or defense until after the football season. Thirteen men who are at present out for football, eight of whom are guards, will re- port then. Opening Date Too Early The Wolverines open the season this year at Kalamazoo on December 4, a week after the gridders end their season, meeting the strong Western State Teachers quintet. Cappon has fears that his squad cannot possibly be in shape for that game, or for the Eastern jaunt of four games in five days coming twelve days later. Jack Teitelbaum and Al Plummer, forwards, and Fred Allen, a center, were the lone letter-men who re- ported last night. Manny Fishman, the Detroit Northern star a few years ago and Don Black were the other veterans who were in uniform. Sophomore stars, including George Ford, John Jablonski, Howard Le Vine and Phil McCallum, the lone guard on the roster, complete the list. Cappon announced today that any and all who would like to make a bid for a varsity berth are urged to re- -)ort at 7:30 Monday, Tuesday Wed- nesday, or Thursday night in the In- tramural Gym with their own equip- ment. '1 Fisher Finds Grid Yearlings Weak In Blocking,_Tackling By KENNETH PARKER Coach Ray Fisher talked yesterday about freshman football players in general. He said that most of them were pretty much undeveloped. "The average high school football player that comes to Michigan is usually quite far below the college standard of efficiency in the funda- mentals of the game," he said. "He can't block. He can't tackle. And he hasn't developed the sense of smooth group movement." "This lack of skill in the funda- mentals is easily explained. In the first place, the high school game, naturally, is not maintained at the same speed and plane of skill, and the players are not drilled as much on -fundamentals. Freshmen Younger "In the second place, and this is the most interesting point, the run of high school players are at the age when they are just getting their growth. They are awkward and are unable to get a good grounding in the fundamentals. Incidentally I have noticed that the average age of freshmen coming in, in all sports, is getting younger and younger. Charlie Hoyt recently took the ages of his Varsity cross country men and found that they were about the same as the boys he handled as high school coach several years ago. "But going back to the second point. I think that Whitey Wistert was the most extreme example of this. He grew too fast and too much for the length of time given him. He was a big awkward kid as a fresh- man, but now you wouldn't know he was the same boy. He has gone through the Michigan process of football maturation. Carver Defeats Forsythe In Faculty Tournament H. C. Carver won the Faculty Han- dicap Golf Tournament yesterday when he defeated W. E. Forsythe, five up and four to play. Carver was the winner of last year's tournament. In the semi-finals played during the latter part of last week, Forsythe had defeated Mitchell one up, and Carver had beaten Craig, two and one. There were sixteen competitors. Tomorrow afternoon at 4:15, the speedball league will continue with games between Phi Kappa Sigma and Phi Kappa Psi, and Alpha Delta Phi and Pi Lambda Phi. At 5:15 Alpha Omega will play Beta Zeta Pi, and Psi Upsilon will meet Phi Lambda Kappa. Intra-fraternity volleyball will be- gin next week. Strong Illinois Grid Team To Face Michian Heston, Petoskey Return To Line-Up After Being On Injured List Two weeks of rest will find the Illinois football team ready for its hardest game of the year this week- end with Michigan. Although the Illini lost their last game against Army, they still have to lose a conference game and are tied for first place with Michigan in tlie Big Ten standings. Illinois will present as heavy a line as Michigan for the contest but not as experienced. However, so far this year, it has shown extraordinary promise and ability for an inexperi- enced line. Coach Zuppke will use a double wing back formation similar to that used by Ohio State against Michigan, the only difference being that it is not as close and as compact. Beynon Smart Passer This type of offense will be suita- bly fitted for the passing attack that Zuppke will throw against the Wol- verines, namely, Jack Beynon, the Varsity quarterback. Beynon is a "picker," that is, one who looks for a receiver and then passes to him. Statistics show him to be the most dangerous passer that Michigan will face this year. To replace this passing threat if the Wolverines spread out in defense, Illinois will pull another trick out of the bag with Lindberg, star punter, runner, and pass receiver, and try to shake him loose. However, al- though the Illini passing attack against Army was stopped by a charging line, it still be be Zuppke's chief threat because his line will not be expected to open holes in the Michigan line or his backs skirt the ends.
