THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1934 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Courtmen Meet Calvin College FiveSaturday Tall Varsity Team Ekes Out 19 To 18 Win Over Reserves In Practice With only two more days to pre- pare for the opening game, Coach Cappon was pushing his basketball squad hard yesterday afternoon, put- ting the players through a two-hour scrimmage. It is not probable that Calvin Col- lege Knights will offer too much competition, but Western State is sure to put a strong quintet on the floor in the season's second game andthe Wolverines have to be ready for them, too. The first team, composed of Capt. Al Plummer, Dick Evans, John Gee, Dick Joslin, John Jablonski, and Gerald Ford, scrimmaged yesterday against the second five: Jack Powell, Jack Teitelbaum, Chelso Tomagno, George Rudness, and "Hi" Hill. So far this season the second squad has been outscoring the first reguarly, and yesterday afternoon's practice showed some of the reasons why this has happened. Second Team Faster Despite the difference in height, the second team was keeping posses- sion of the ball and taking most of the shots. They were alive and took all of the loose balls as well as taking the ball off the backboard. The first teamwas slow and handled the ball sloppily. They could not seem to move as a team, but only as individ- uals. The second team held the lead most of the scrimmage. However, after trailing 18 to 8, the Varsity started clicking and when the scrim- mage ended was leading 19 to 18. Rudness, despite his size, was receiv- ing the ball and scoring most of the points. He was the only man who could hit fouls with any regularity. Out of thirty-three fouls attempted by both teams, only nine were good. The seconds made six of the nine that went through the netting. Sink the Short Shots The Varsity quintet, because of its superior height, made most of its points on short shots. Most of the eleveiq points that they scored in their final rush were of this type. In the remaining part of the prac- tice Cappon held to the plan that he has followed -this year of maintain- ing two distincts fives, of practically the equal ability, the personnels of which do not change. The result of this should be two well-trained teams, outstanding for their superior team- work, each of which can be put into a game at any time and be trusted to turn in a good performance. Gerald Ford Chosen Most Valuable Player Gerald Ford, center, has been chosen the most valuable player on the 1934 Michigan football squad by his team- mates. He will receive the Chicago Tribune award which such outstand- ing stars as Harry Newman and Her- man Everhardus have received before him. Ford's selection as Michigan's most valuable player qualifies him for se- lection as the most valuable in the Western Conference. Newman re- ceived this honor in 1932. This was Ford's first year as a regular, the All-America play of Chuck Bernard keeping him on the bench during his sophomore and jun- ior years. Ford came to Michigan from South High School of Grand Rapids. WISCONSIN HOLDS EDGE Wisconsin has won nine games, lost eight, and tied two in her 19 games with Illinois. A- Just Arrived!

Bill Renner, captain of the 1935 Michigan football team, is expected to re-tore the punch in the Wolverines' passing attack that was so sadly missing throughout the disastrous 1934 season. This year, for the se;*nd time in his college career, Renner was unable to play in a single game. This season it was because of a broken, ankle bone. In 1932 it was illness. Renner will have experienced mates in the backfield with him next year, but the team he will captain must find replacements for most of this year's line. Renner's brother, Bob, is co-captain of this year's Michigan swim- ming team.

Pi Lambda Phi, Theta Chi Win An Swim Meet The Theta Chi and Pi Lambda Phi fraternity swimming teams moved in- to the semi-finals of the interfratern- ity meet Tuesday night with easy quarter-final wins over the Phi Gam- ma Delta and Beta Theta Pi teams respectively. Tuesday's third swimming meet ended in the first tie in intramural history, Psi Upsilon and Alpha Kappa Lambda both finishing with 21 points. It is probable, stated intramural of- ficials yesterday, that the meet will be reheld the first of next week. The winner will swim against Chi Phi next week in the other semi-final meet. Two semi-finalists in the water polo tourney were also decided at the Intramural pool. Lambda Chi Alpha defeated Phi Lambda Kappa, 4-0, and Pi Lambda Phi won from Theta Chi, 3-0. The Chi Phi team won its quarter final game earlier in the week and will meet the Phi Kappa Psi-Psi Upsilon winner in the semi-finals. The annual interfraternity wrest- ling meet will be held Wednesday and Thursday, Dec. 5 and 6 at the Intra- mural building. Already 22 teams have entered to make the field the largest to ever compete.

Even Mirrors Used Now In Grid Drills KANSAS CITY, Nov. 28 - (P) - Dana X. Bible, of Nebraska, uses signs as part of his scheme to win football games, so Lynn Waldorf, of Kansas State, plans to do it with mirrors. With the climactic Big Six title struggle between Bible's Nebraska Cornhuskers and Waldorf's Kansasf State Wildcats one day away, Wald- orf goes one up, at least, on the con- ference's veteran "idea man" by calm- ly introducing large mirrors as ad- juncts to football rehearsal. Last week it was too muddy to prac- tice on the home gridiron, so Waldorf and his men hied themselves away to the sheltered tanbark arena at nearby Fort Riley. Those huge mir- rors before which the Army's crack riders and school mounts preen them- selves for championships caught his' eye. Could they be put to practical use in football? The idea crystalized into'something Bible never thought of before. Wald-, orf has his punting delegation re- hearsing their mincing two-steps be- fore them. To improve their stance, he says. Ohio State gained 1,455 yards by' rushing this year. Navy Favored To Whip Army Team Saturday, NEW YORK, Nov. 28 -(A')- It'sf refreshing to note that Navy, for the first time since 1921, is not the under- dog this year in the annual gridiron service clash with the Army., The service teams first clashed way, back in 1890, with the Midshipmen j submerging the Soldiers 24 to 0. They've played 33 times since then with the Cadets holding a decided edge of 19 victories to 12 for the Sail- ors. Three games were tied. However, the Middies won't be thel underdogs when the teams line up on Franklin Field in Philadelphia Saturday before an anticipated capac- ity crowd of 80,000. Today's Games While the Army-Navy game fea- tures the "dying swan" week of the the wildest campaigns in the history of college football, many teams will get in their last licks on Thanksgiv- ing Day.
