DNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1934 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE STAR DUSTB TO PROFESSOR RALPH AIGLER, chairman of the Board in Control of Athletics: Will you please consider making a bid for the Big Ten outdoor track meet for Ann Arbor next spring when the board meets in December to make that, and other decisions? , This column published a plea, last year, that the meet be brought to Ann Arbor. Perhaps you didn't see it, since you were in the West recuperat- ing from a serious illness. We're glad you're able to be back. That column emphasized the desirability of having the meet here from a spectator's viewpoint. Shortly' after its publication I received a letter from Harmon Wolfe, 1932 track captain, supporting our campaign and showing how much a big home meet means to the athletes themselves. He pointed out how trips can bind a team into a fighting whole, but also how athletes like to appear before a home crowd, and perform better at home for that reason. The seniors, particularly, are tired of traveling, of appearing before hostile crowds in their big meets. They want to win at home, where their own relatives, friends and classmates are in the stands. Michigan's going to have another good team next year. Captain Harvey Smith and Willis Ward and several others will be ending their college careers in the Big Ten meet. We think they would like to finish at Ferry Field. I realize, of course, that the cost is a fundamental consideration. If it is going to mean a loss, a bigger loss than the University athletic fund can afford, we will say no more about it, only, won't you consider the matter, Professor Aigler? * * * * * * The football managers at Ferry Field are up to their old tricks again, trying to chase former-Michigan-All-American Ernie Vick out of secret practice sessions. They did it yesterday for the third consecutive year. Also, they have not yet provided a supply of apples for the corre- spondents. Tish, tish. Did you never study principles of publicity? With Johnny Regeczi graduating in June and no outstanding punter among the juniors and sophomores on the grid squad we watched with interest the punting drill featured in yesterday's freshman practice. One punter stood out, a tall, well-built youngster named Nickerson from U. of D. High. He takes a lot of time getting his kicks away but was sending beautiful spirals ten or fifteen yards farther than any of the other booters. He is also a good passer. * * * * * * 1933 Net Team Prospects Good Says Johnstone The prospects fbr the 1935 tennis team are exceptionally fine, accord- ing to Coach John Johnstone. While Seymour Seigel and Howard Kahn are the only leftovers from last year's Varsity team which placed second in the Big Ten Conference, some fine prospects from last year's fresh- man squad are expected to fill the breach adequately. Rodriguez, the Porto Rican star, Edmunds, Sherwood, and Dean are the freshmen. Besides this material1 Coach Johnstone is counting heavily on Anderson, a transfer from Grand Rapids Junior College, and Eskowitz and Thornwood, who were reserves on the 1934 team. Practice will begin as soon as the invitation and orientation tourna- ments are over and continue until Christmas. Doubles will be stressed during this time as Coach Johnstone feels that last year's double combina- tions were not up to standard. After Christmas vacation, practices will continue until the tournament season' begins. The invitational tournament begins next week and a large turnout is ex- pected. The freshmen tournament has reached the quarter-finals and Coach Johnstone said that an ex- ceptionally fine group of tennis play- ers had been uncovered among the freshmen. TVDIW Women Athletes Must Get Health Rechecks Women who intend to partici- pate in the various Intramural and Interclass tournaments this year must have a heart and lung re- check if they have not had the physical examination this fall, ac- cording to Dr. Margaret Bell, head of women's athletics. The Field House will be open from 4 to 6 p.m. today for that purpose. 0 b Dean And Co. Cut Lead To One Game Just who the National League rep- resentative will be in the forthcoming World Series has the entire baseball world wondering. Driving toward the pennant in a terrific last minute spurt, the St. Louis Cardinals gained another full game on the league-lead- ing Giants when Curt Davis, youth- ful Philly pitcher, shut out the Terry- men, while Dizzy Dean set back the Pirates by a 3-2 decision. The Giants must win their three re- maining games while the Cards must win their five remaining games in order to have a playoff series for the flag and the right to oppose the De- troit Tigers in the big October classic. CHI PSI HOCKEY WINNERS Chi Psi fraternity hockey team was the winner of the Interfraternity Hockey meet last winter instead of Chi Phi as was stated in yesterday's Daily. i' DRITIDS Russell Oliver looks like another Stanley Fay at quarterback to us. He will undoubtedly be a conservative, as Zit Tessmer and Fay were. Oliver has more brains than most football players and can, we think, be counted upon to make the best possible use of the material at hand. i A g a h v nvmE Irag ofbpr A large and choice stock in a complete range of prices.
