THE MICHIGAN DAILY olverineHockey Team Will Engage Sarnia Here y PLAY & BY- PLAY By AL NEWMAN ETTERS of a gangster in college to his lady-friend in the Big, Wicked City: Dear Mabel: Well, here I am back again from Xmas vacation. Quite a vacation, hey? I find that the President of the College has left for Egypt which is where all the extinct faros are resting in peace except those which the C.W.A. ditch-digging operations in previous depressions dig up. And while the President is away, here they go and decide to have final ex- aminations anyway. Well if that is all the respect the President gets around here, I do not want to be President. The basketball team is the chief topic of conversation right now, Ma- bel. I hear that the boys are not doing quite as well as the football team did, and everyone is wondering what is the matter. Well I do not pretend to know very much about the game, but I see one contest and I can tell you that the boys are not putting the ball through the iron ring often enough. That is all that is the trouble. It is enough to make me wonder hearing all the complaints & theories which are floating around the cam- pus. Here they go yammering around and forget all about what a wonder- ful football team we have and forget that the Michigans cannot always put the slug on all the other Big Tens in every sport. Anyway, I bet that the boys do not need much complaining to make them do their best. They are feeling bad enough right now, and the only thing I can see which will help is to try to make them feel better. The icemen which are the hockey players also drop two games to the Minnesodas. It is a regular thing, I hear, the Minnesodas to win while they are there and the Michigans to win while they are here. It is no doubt the difference inthe ice up at Minnesoda and the ice down here. I think the only way, Mabel, to decide the series once and for all is to have the 2 referees of the 2 series meet say in Chicago and fight the thing out between themselves. Well, looking the basketball situ- ation over, I feel very, very hopeful. Anyway, things could not be much worse. Sincerely, Mike. Strong Canadian Sextet Here For One Game Stand Lowrey Anticipates Hard =Match For Wolverines; Will Start Same Team Face-Off At 8 P. M. Will Be Final Encounter Of Semester For Local Stick-Wielders The Wolverine hockey sextet will close its first semester schedule at 8 o'clock tonight in the Varsity Arena against the strong Pointe Edward team of Sarnia, Ontario. Admission for the game will be 35 cents for students and faculty members on presentation of coupon book or ident- ification card. Pointe Edward, leader of the in- termediate division in the Ontario amateur league, will present a strong lineup led by such stars as Burley, Levanovitch, and Manning. Levano- vitch is one of the best stick-handlers in the league, his passing ability be- ing outstanding. Courtis Out With Bad Ankle The Wolverines will start with the same lineup that has been on the ice at the opening face-off in the games this year. Coach Lowrey is not yet sure about the Michigan |spares as Walter Courtis, one of the Wolverine replacements, is out of the game due to a sprained ankle which he suffered Sunday. The game tonight should be a close battle between two strong teams. The Maize and Blue have not been de- feated this year by any of the ama- teur teams in the M-O or Ontario leagues and they will be trying to keep this record clean. In eight games this season, the Michigan six has won five and -lost three, two of the defeats coming last Thursday and Friday nights at the hands of the Minnesota Gophers by scores of 5-2 and 1-0. Lowrey Takes Team Off Ice The Wolverines ran up a 2-1 lead over Minnesota in the first period of Thursday's contest, but only after Coach Lowrey had protested the quality of the officiating by the ref- eree. Shortly after the opening face- off, Ted Chapman was unjustly pen- alized, and in, order to prevent any further discrimination, the Michigan mentor called the team off the ice, refusing to play unless the officiating would be fairer. After returning to* the ice, the decisions of the referee wereabsolutely fair, according to Lowrey, and there were no more complaints. The Maize and Blue could not hold theirlead, however, the defense fal- tering enough to allow Johnson, Gopher spare, to skate through for three goals, a lead which the Mich- igan six could not overcome. Capt. George David, Johnny Jewell, and Larry David continued to play the same outstanding games that drew favorable comment for their showing against Michigan Tech ten days ago. The probable lineups for tonight's game follows: Michigan Pos. Pt. Edward Jewell ........ Goal......... Geary Chapman .. . ,Defense...... Manor L. David ......Defense. , F. Prudence Artz ... .. . Center .,...Burley Sherf ........Wing... . Levanovich G. David ..;... .Wing......Manning Spares - Michigan: Stewart and McEachern. Pt. Edward: Gutteridge, Garvie, Murphey, and Jenkins.

The Wolverines showed a world of progress when they came through to beat the Spartans, 16 1-2 to 11 1-2. Coach Keen was especially pleased with the performances turned in by Captain Art Mosier. The Wolverine captain won an overwhelming time advantage victory over State's repre- sentative and almost won by a fall. Don Fiero, in his first meet for Michigan this year, also turned in a creditable performance although he was held to a tie by his 118-pound opponent. However, Fiero held a small time advantage over the State man although it was not large enough to warrant a victory. Harrod suffered the hardest break of the evening when, after he had been on the top all of the way in the 145-pound match, he hurt sev- eral ribs and was forced to default his match. Several times he was on the verge of pinning his Spartan op- ponent but bad luck proved his un- doing. Joe Oakley and Seymour Freedman continued their string of wins, each one having taken their opponents in each of the two meets. The squad will continue the prac- tice sessions throughout the exam period, the practising of each indi- vidual being determined by his exam schedule and inclinations. Cagers Rest As Cappon Scouts Wildcat-Ohio Tilt Varsity basketball coach, Franklin Cappon, remained in Chicago over the week-end in order to scout the Ohio State and Northwestern teams in their game at Evanston last night, As a result the cage team did not practice yesterday, but Cappon will be back in plenty of time today to give the squad a hard work-out and probably a decided shake-up after their defeat at the hands of the lowly Chicago Maroons last Satur- day night. Hubbell, Martin To Be Rivals In Court Game OKLAHOMA CITY, Jan. 22. - OP--- Carl Hubbell and Pepper. Martin will oppose each other" on the basketballcourt here tonight. From his home town of Meeker the New York Giants' famous southpaw will bring his All Stars to meet the Oklahoma City Col- cord quintet coached by the St. Louis Cardinal third sacked.

Yale, Yale The Gang's All Here' Yale Motto NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan. 22.-P) - A Yale man as Yale coach ap- peared the probable answer today to the question, "who will coach Yale football?" First authoritative word of the way the wind is blowing came from Mal- colm Farmer, chairman of Yale ath- letics, who broke his strict silence to say: "The tendency is toward a Yale man. A decision was promised for early this week, with the board of athletic control scheduled to meet tonight or tomorrow night. The way was cleared for the se- lection of a Yale man, meanwhile, by a subsiding~ of the agitation against t h e traditional graduate coaching policy and in favor of an "outsider," preferably Harry G. Kipke of Michigan. 11 'I . It's Not Too Late! to enroll in our 1934 Christmas Club. Classes to suit your budget are still forming.
