9, 'T HE MICHIGAN DAILY ..'. THE M-ICHIG-AN------DA --L-- Wolverines Open Court Season Here Tonight With M. S.( Y Spartans Are Favorites In Home Opener Petoskey, Oliver, Allen, Ford And Plummer Are To Start For Wolverines Michigan's Varsity basketball team will open its home season in a game with Michigan State in Yost Field House at 7:30 tonight. The Wolverine squad has come a long way since being defeated by Western State Monday night and may upset the confident Green and White sharpshooters. Coach Franklin Cappon gave his team a light work-out in the Field House last evening, then sent them home to get a lot of sleep. He an- nounced that he will start the same five men who started the Western State game. This will put Allen at center, Ford and Plummer at the for- word positions, and Capt. Petoskey and Oliver at the guards. Cappon expressed himself as satis- fied with the improvement his men have shown in practice this week. They have eliminated the glaring faults revealed in Monday's game, and while their passing is still ragged and their shots often awry', they can be counted upon to get more than three field goals against the Spartans. A number of Wolverine reserves will probably see service during the evening. Jablopski, who starred in the "B" team game last week, may get his chance at center while Re- geczi, Tessmer, Borgmann, Rudness,. Fishman and several others may also appear in the line-up. Hockey Team Wins Second Game From M-O Sextet 3 To <4 University Squash Team Enters Class A Interclub Circuit A University of Michigan squash racquets team sponsored by the In- tramural department has been en- tered in tite Michigan Inter-Club Squash Racquets League and will play a series of home-and-home matches with other members of the league, according to an announce- ment of the Intramural department. The University has entered a team in other years, but in Class B, this being the first time that a University team will compete in Class A. The University team is scheduled to meet the Adams Y. M. C. A. of Detroit at the Adams gym next Mon- day in the first match. Other mem- bers of the league entered are the University Club, Detroit Athletic Club, Detroit Racquets Club, and Country Club, all of Detroit. The schedule of the league calls for a match between the Detroit Racquets Club and the Michigan entry in the Intramural courts next Wednesday at 5 p. m. The five man University team will be picked from several candidates, including Ernie Vick, former Wolver- ine All-American center, Robert An- gell, of the faculty, Ray Fiske, re- tiring Varsity football manager, Louie Westover, Varsity gridder, Bill Schneider, local sports official, and E. B. Smith and Randolph Webster of the Intramural department. Yost Will Not Coneede theory Of Defense Play Fielding H. Yost, grand old man of Michigan football and member of the National Rules Committee, turned a deaf ear toward suggestions that the defense now has most of the ad- vantage on the gridiron. Yost argues that when Army and Notre Dame pile up a total of 25 points in. their annual game, it indi- cates there can be plenty of scoring under present rules, "if you have teams which are trained to get touch- downs." Princeton 27 and Yale 2, Southern California 31 and Georgia 0, Florida scoring 19 points on Maryland, Villa- nova 18 and Rutgers 13 should sat- isfy people who like scoring," he said. "Recently," Yost continued, "I heard a coach complain that the de- fense has all the advantage and in the next breath he appealed to any and all present to tell him how his team could stop that rival halfback in his game." The rule which makes a fumbled ball dead has done a great deal for the offense, in Yost's opinion. "If you let defense players run with a recovered fumble, lateral passes and other sensational plays would disappear again immediately," he said. "And it seems to me there already is sufficient penalty for the mechanical error of fumbling. Loss of the ball means loss of position on the field, which is a very important fac- tor. "_ i i Miehigan Shows Improvement In' Passes, Defense Overtime Period Needed For Decision; Winning Goal Made By Sherf By DON BIRD With a burst of speed in an over- time period, Michigan's hockey team eked out a 3 to 2 win over a fast Amherstburg outfit last night on the Varsity Arena. Paced by Johnny Sherf with two goals and an assist, the Wolverines displayed a distinctly improved form over their perform- ance against Dearborn last Tuesday. Sherf, the fastest skater on the squad, showed improved art in hand- ling the puck and a tendency to bet- ter teamwork. His two solo dashes for scores in the second and over- time periods and his pass to Artz for a tally in the first period were the deciding factors in the Michigan vic- tory. In the initial period play was un- usually fast and the visitors kept the puck in Wolverine territory most of the time. Larry David, Michigan right defense, and Johnny Jewell, goalie, were the stars on defense in the period, preventing opposition scores by their heads-up work. Mich- igan's smooth team-work was evi- dent from the first, and especially so when Sherf passed neatly to Avon Artz, who scored from a pile-up in front of the goal after eight minutes of play. The Amherstburg passing was ragged throughout the game, but in the second period the Green-White forward combination pierced the Michigan first-line defense almost at will. The Wolverine secondary de- fense, Ted Chapman and Larry Da- vid, performed up to par and only once in this period were the oppo- sition able to penetrate them for a score. cAfter five minutes of the period had elapsed, Sherf brought the rub- ber down the north side of the rink, evaded two defense men, and flipped it neatly into the corner of the net. Nearly ten minutes later Sabine, Am- herstburg center, managed to man- euver the puck around the back of the goal and slip it past Jewell as the latter threw himself full-length at the side of the net. It was a clever bit of puck handling and the smart- est score of the evening. In the third canto both defenses weakened slightly. Renaud tallied in the middle of the period on a shot lifted past Jewell's arm to even the count, two all. Thereafter Michi- gan held the visitors to center ice and Ted Chapman stopped several long drives with his body. With three minutes to go, Amherstburg rained shots on Michigan's goalie from all angles in a final effort to get the advantage. Jewell stopped thirteen attempts in this period. The ten-minute overtime was fast and wild. Neither team could pass well. Finally in the second minute Sherf took the puck from Michigan's defense line and slid a short shot past Durham for the winning coun- ter. Thereafter Amherstburg made a desperate last stand with five men up the ice, but could not keep the puck in hand. Sherf again stood out, this time on defense, keeping the sphere out of dangerous terri- tory until the final gun. The lack of numerous penalties was most conspicuous and the game generally was hard and clean. John Jewell stopped 33 shots and Durham, 31, a good record for the evening. LINEUPS Michigan Pos.

'MURAL BADMINTON STARTS Intramural badminton is due, to start this morning, according to Bet- ty Cady, student manager. F i r s t round matches will be played off be- fore Christmas vacation, and the ad- vanced rounds before the end of the semester. Wrestling Meet Presents Good 165-lb. Bouts Wrestling fans will have luscious' pickings next week when the annual All-Campus wrestling meet rolls around this Wednesday. The en- trants will consist mostly of mem- bers of the Varsity and the freshman wrestling squads. The most interesting matches of the meet are expected to take place in the 165 pound class. Although Oren Parker is the favorite for the winner, he will encounter a world of opposition in George Lawton, Hil- ton Ponto and Tony Dauksza. Parker took part in several bouts for the Varsity last year but did not earn a letter. He has been coming along very well in practise this year and is the most logical winner of the event. Lawton is a junior out for wrestling for the first time. How- ever, he is built well and has been working hard from the opening day of the practise session. Lack of ex- perience is his handicap but, if he has assimilated enough of Coach Keen's tutoring, he may provide a tough battle and come through a winner. Hilton Ponto, another of the strong men who will be in the event, is a recruit of last year's squad although he never played a pai-t in the Varsity meets. He played football this year and came out late but his experience might pull him through. Tony Dauk- sza is another newcomer in wrestling but was an active in boxing last year and played on the grid "B" team this year. He has not been present very Layden Will Coach Ramblers In 1934 SOUTH BEND, Ind., Dec. 8. -l(/P) -Elmer Layden, one of the Four Horsemen, will replace H a r t 1 y "Hunk" Anderson as head football coach at Notre Dame next fall as the result of a drastic shakeup of the Notre Dame athletic' staff. Jess Harper will also retire In the absence of Father Charles O'Donnell, president of the univer- sity, who has been recuperating from a long illness, no official statement on the changes was expected before his return tomorrow, but they were readily admitted by authorities in charge although none wished to be quoted personally.
