" OW is the time for all good mer
to come to the aid of the party."
Join the sports staff and see the
world. In fact know every detail of
that section of the globe which de-
scribes the straight line between the
Publications building, Yost Field
house, and all points south. See the
world via shank's ponies, otherwise
known as the dogs.
The sports staff needs men, or so
the women's staff has been telling us
for' years. Qualifications? Two more
brains than a professional wrestler.
some ability to murder his majesty'
English, and a pair of feet that will
not wear, crack, warp, or blister.
Tryouts should also have fairly good
vision. If the vision is defective,
apply at Yost Field house for a ref-
eree's position.
FOR the regular editorial staff, sub-
tract one brain from the head and
one blister from the feet.
Tryouts should report this after-
noon at four in the Publications
building. For some time the editorial
and sports staff tryouts will be to-
gether during a short course of train-
ing under the editorial staff. After
this period, the sports staff will re-
deem its own men and try to kick
out of them most of the things they
have learned during the training pe-
riod If you come out for the sports
staff, don't let those characters on
the editorial staff swerve you from
your purpose.
YOUR grammar foundation should
be fairly good, and you should
have a sufficient appreciation of sport
to pronounce the Ohio State football
game as good football, and to enjoy
the exhibition of basketball which
the Purdues put on here Monday
night despite the fact the Michigan
team lost badly. Beyond this in the
realm of sports you do not have to
go. All else will come to you. You
must be willing to work hard and
reliability should be your keynote.
Your marks should be as good as
your feet are tough. Working on the
sports staff is almost equally hard on
marks and feet. Don't come out for
the sports staff with either borderline
marks or borderline feet.
THERE is satisfaction in sports
staff work, especially for those in-
clined to creative writing. We offer
you the thrill of, your first signed
story, all in the due course of time,
thn which thrill there is none great-
er, so help me. We also offer you the
opportunity of meeting Michigan's
coaches who are really a group of
fine fellows even though at times
they are sorely tried and show dispo-
sitions remotely similar to a Chow
dog's.
We offer you also the opportunity
of assisting in recording the continu-
ity of Michigan's great athletic tradi-
tion, second to none in the country-
the thrill of writing up another Mich-
igan victory, the opportunity of really
learning what "The Victors" means.
"Go west, young man, go west,"
and stop at the Publications building.
But don't forget for an instantthat
you are letting yourself in for some
work!
Handball, Bowling
Head I-M Program

Independent team handball cham-
pionships will get under way next
week, probably Tuesday at the intra-
mural courts. Entries are still coming
in and it is expected that approxi-
mately twenty teams will compete.
The Hiiltoppers, with Al Hillburger
and Friedman in the singles and
Gidja and Redness in the doubles,
won the event last year. They are
favored over the Blue Raiders, last
year's runners-up.
FACULTY BOWLING.MEET
A telegraphic bowling meet between
faculty players of the University of
Syracuse and the University of Mich-
igan will be run off in the near fu-
ture under the sponsorship of the in-
tramural department. The local fac-
ulty will bowl on the Union alleys.
S. G. Waltz, L. K. James, C. 0.
Wilser, Dr. Hainer, Dr. Kerlikowske,
E. D. Mitchell, H. C. Carver, and
others will make up the two five-
mlan teams which will compete.

Wolverines r e Hockey Six To Meet Wisconsin Puckmen Tonigi

Buckeye Squad
Swimming At Columbus
Has Been Rejuvenated
This Season
Meet At 7:15 P. M.
Ewell And Fela, Stars Of
Ohio Lineup; Drysdale
May Not Compete
Fourteen Ohio State Varsity swim-
mers invade Ann Arbor tonight to
open the local Conference dual meet
season.
The tank sport has been rejuve-
nated at Ohio State this season and
:he Buckeyes appear to be preparing
to make a serious bid for Conference
honors within the next few years.
rhey have secured the National In-
ercollegiate and National A.A.U.
meets for Columbus later in the year.
Tonight's meet will begin at 7:15
harp to allow fans to attend the
&Iichigan-Wisconsin hockey game at
3:30. Admission for students is 25
3ents, that for townspeople, 40 cents.
Ewell and Fela are reported to be
he class of the Buckeye natators
Fela and his teammate, Volk, will
3ompete in the 150-yard backstroke,
probably against Drysdale. The Wol-
verine star may not be able to com-
?ete due to an incomplete which he
hopes to have removed before to-
night.
Besides Drysdale, the Michigan
team will be at full strength for the
Conference opener, the last condition
being removed yesterday.
Ewell is the best free style distance
man the Ohio school has produced
in years and with his teammate Fig-
ley hopes to take several points from
Cristy and Osgood.
Mann has definitely decided to use
Kamienski, Renner, Blake, and Dal-
rymple in the 400-yard relay against
the Ohio aggregation composed of
Fela, Faurot, Drennen and Burrell
or Hagaman.
Fela, who appears to be a one-
man team in himself, will also swim
on the 300-yard medley relay team,
along with Colville and Burrell.
Ewell, Figley in 220
Ewell and Figley will again team
together in the 220-yard free-style
event against Tex Robertson.
The Ohio mentor has entered three
men in the 200-yard breast stroke
event. They are Colville, Green, and
Harman.
Burrell and Hagaman will be used
in the century free style, while the
Ohio State divers are Graham, Wal-
ton, and Adams.
Three men, Burrell, Hagaman, and
Walton, will represent Ohio in the
50-yard free style. Mann will prob-
ably use Renner in the short event
and Dick Degener may also be en-
tered. Dick is the fastest man on the
squad at the short distance, but us-
ually refrains from swimming it since
it hurts his diving later in the eve-
ning.

He Will Dive Tonight

Diminuitive Dick D e g e n e r will
strike this characteristic pose more
than once tonight at the Intramural
swimming pool when the Buckeye na-
tators attempt to wrest a dual meet
from the hb ig h 1y-favored Michigan
tankmen. Degener is a diver of na-
tional repute.
Thinelads Will
Meet Buckeyes
In First Meet
Michigan will open its Big Ten
track campaign here Saturday night
when it meets Ohio State in Yost
Field House. The meet will start at
7:30, and is expected to be over by
8:45, in plenty of time to permit fans
to see the Michigan-Wisconsin
hockey match.
One of the interesting events will
be the mile relay, a race in which
Michigan defeated the Buckeyes here
a few weeks ago but one in which
Ohio State has come up considerably
since that time. Indications are that
the race will be run in 3 minutes, 24
seconds or less.
Wolverine stars who will compete
are Ward, in the dash, hurdles and
high jump;, Kemp and Lamb, dash;
Hunt, hurdles and high jump; Capt.
Tom Ellerby, Lemen and Patton, 440-
yard run and mile relay; Smith,
Gooding and Gorman, 880-yard run;
Childs, mile run; Alix and Howell,
two-mile run; Droullard, pole vault;
and Blumenfeld and Silverman, shot
put.
Ohio will be handicapped by the
loss of Co-Captain Whitey Wonso-
wicz, who recently quit the team for
the season.
They will, however, be fortified
with such stars as Stapf, a dashman
who placed third in the Conference
Indoor meet last year, and placed
in the 100 and 220 outdoors.
Captain Bloor is a quartermiler of
proven ability, who is slightly handi-
capped by an injury so that he may
not be at his best Saturday. George
Arnold, another 440 man, although
slight of build, has looked good this
year.
Included with these stars will be
Cook and Slabourg, hurdles; Willey,
440 yards; Smith and Dickey, 880
yards; Moore, mile and two-mile run;
Sites and Stultz, pole vault; Boucher
and Gearhart, high jump; and Neal
and Schwartz, shot put.
BERWANGER, TRACK MAN
Jay Berwanger, sophomore fullback
sensation of the University of Chi-
cago's 1933 football team, bids fair to
star likewise in track and field. He
broad jumped 23 feet in high school
and also does the hurdles.
Two holes in one in a single round
of golf is the claim to golfing fame
of Victor Black, Livermore, Califor-
nia, cattleman who sank his tee shot
on the 149 yard, fourth hole and re-
peated on the seventeenth before sev-
eral witnesses.

Badgers Here
For Two-Game
Hockey Series
Wolverines Favored Over
Coach Thomsen' s Sextet;
Game To Start At 8:30
Wisconsin's puck team, tied with
Michigan in the Western Conference
hockey race, will invade the Varsity
Arena tonight for the first of two
games against the Wolverine sextet.
The games will start at 8:30 both
nights, admission charges being 35
cents for students and faculty mem-
bers with coupon books and 75 cents
general admission.
Both the Wolverines and the Bad-
gers have lost two games to the Min-
nesota six in series at the St. Paul
Hippodrome, and on the strength of
comparative scores, the two teams
are almost e v e n1y matched. The
Maize and Blue, however, will be
favored to defeat Coach Art Thom-
sen's pucksters and improve their
standing in the Big Ten race.
Team At Full Strength
Johnny Sherf and Ted Chapman,
who have been having difficulty in
removing incompletes in time to par-
ticipate in the series, are expected
to be eligible in time to take the ice
against the Badgers. With the two
Michigan stars able to play, the Var-
sity will lineup the same as they
have in previous games.
Coach Eddie Lowrey's squad will
be further strengthened by the re-
turn of Red MacCollum and Harold
Sindles, who have been ineligible un-
til the present semester.
In the event that Chapman and
Sherf are unable to play, the Varsity
will lineup with MacCollum at Chap-
man's defense post and Tom Stew-
art at left wing in place of the Calu-
met Flash. Sindles will be in the
reserve line and is expected to see
service in both games.
Fallon Aids Badgers
Billy Southworth and Jerry Femal,
the two Badger defensemen who were
injured in the second game with
Minnesota, are fully recovered and
will be in their usual positions to-
night. Dick Muther, sophomore wing
who gave opponents plenty of trou-
ble in Wisconsin's early s e a s o n
games, will be unable to play because
of ineligibility but his place will be
taken by Jimmy Fallon, who is ex-
pected to bolster the Cardinal for-
ward line.
Spectators at the series will wit-
ness an interesting contest between
two first-class goalies in Johnny Jew-
ell and Charlie Heyer. Both are
above the average in ability and
should make some spectacular saves.
Probable starting lineups:
Michigan Pos. Wisconsin
Jewell ........ Go al......... Heyer
Chapman......D..........Femal
L. David...... D .....Southworth
Artz. .........C........Maxwell
G. David ...... W. .........Fallon
Sherf ......... W .......... Quinn
Michigan S p a r e s - McEachern,
MacCollum, Sindles, Stewart, and
Courtis. Wisconsin Spares-Fawckes,
Halverson, and Mercer.
WOMEN'S SWIMMING
Though a definite evening has been
set for the practice and timing of
the swimming candidates according
to sorority affiliation, this scheduling
was planned only to facilitate han-
dling of the groups and preventing
postponement until the last possible
date. It is suggested that candidates
try out early in the season, and then
after aafew practices have their time
taken again. Next Tuesday night the
houses scheduled for timing are
Alpha Omicron Pi, Alpha Phi, Alpha
Xi Delta, Chi Omega, and Tri Delt.

Jim Crapo Cristy,
Wittler, Boy Scout
And Other Things
By MARJORIE WESTERN
Occurring Jan. 22, 1913, JIM CRA-
PO CRISTY, JUNIOR, cap'n, Michi-
gan swimming team, 1934, lived in
detr't as long as possible, then moved
to Ann Arbor some 15 yr's ago. He
is now 6 feet 1 inch tall and weighs
161 lbs.
He is champion of Canada with
regard to a 1500 meter race which
he swam away with last summer, but
he only has a miniature of the tro-
phy, because everybody who wins
it has to pay mailing charges as
well as a ten dollar bond standing
for their honesty.
That he doesn't wear his own Sig-
ma Phi pin is none of your business.
Whittler
Collecting maps is his hobby, be-
cause he looked at a Nat'l Geogra-
phic once. He also disciplines the
small children of his naborhood by
showing them various heads and
things which lie has whittled in mo-
ments of leisure.
He graduated from U. high, where
he was the swimming team and cap-
tain. Already when he was a fresh-
man M'tt M'nn had his eye on him,
however. He used to stroke back-
wards as well as f'rwards in those
days.
He is also cosmopolitan, being of
english, irish, scotch, french a n d
dutch extraction. Nor will he com-
mit himself on his fav'rite subjects,
claiming that he has struggled most
with french.
"Slow on my feet" is his reason for
not being a very remarkable tennis
player, although he likes it, and ca-
noeing. His financial career was un-
dertaken at the age of approximately
9 when he earned an unknown sum
picking dandelions.
Scout Interests
That led to his being a counsellor
in nature study and woodcraft, as
well as swimming, at a Boy Scout
Camp for sev'al summers. In his
youth his family had a cottage by a
lake where he summered, and it was
constant exposure to water that made
him learn to swim, he says.
He was refused admittance to a
swell party on the Coast at the
Olympics two yr's ago for being an
athlete instead of an official. He
also took third place in above-men-
tioned Ol'pics, first white man to
finish. Most of the Big Ten free
style dash titles are his, too, for in-
stance the 220 and 440.
He doesn't diet,. being underw't
anyhow. He guesses that they will
beat Ohio State alright. He also has
the idea that they won't be missing
him at the po'l next year, as there
are lots of good lower classmen.
Where d'ya s'pose he got it?
Don Pedan Refuses
Indiana Grid Reins
BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Feb. 15 -
(P) - Zora G. Clevenger, Indiana Un-
iversity athletic director, said today
he had received a letter from Don
Peden, Ohio University f o o t b a 11
coach, terminating the negotiations
which have been under way to bring
Peden here as Indiana's football
mentor.
Clevenger quoted Peden as saying
he was well satisfied with his job
at Ohio University and intended to
,remain there.
Indiana authorities recently con-
ferred at Ft. Wayne, Ind., with Peden
relative to acceptance of the coach-
ing position. Peden returned to
Athens and Clevenger toBlooming-
ton after issuing a statement that
further negotiations would be con-
I ducted.

'Gabby'
S'Well,

Street Banquet
Without 'Gabby'

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 15. -(/P) -
It was a notable gathering of base-
ball men. Ty Cobb was there. So was
Bill Lange, a New York Giants out-,
field star when grandfather was fuss-
ing with his sideburns.
In one chair satdLefty O'Doul.
Charley Graham and George Put-
.am, owners of the San Francisco
Seals, were on hand. Spry Mique
Fisher, 72 years young, cut up old
touches of his days as owner of the
Sacramento and Tacoma clubs.
Oscar Vitt represented he Holly-
wood club.
It was a sumptuous banquet. Hy-
land Baggerly, president of the coast
league, was giving it as an official
and friendly welcome to Charles
"Gabby" Street, who is bringing his
managerial genius to the San Fran-
cisco mission club after long and
honorable service in the big leagues.
For one solid hour they engaged in
animated conversation. Then some-
one discovered that "Gabby" wasn't
present.
They had forgotten to tell the
guest of honor where the banquet was
to be held.
