In First Appearance As

By ARTHUR W. CARSTENS
Michigan's Varsity hockey team
opened the Big Ten season by defeat-
ing Wisconsin here tonight, 6 to 0,
in the first of a two-game series. The
same teams will meet at the Coliseum
again tonight,
Before the first period was 10 min-
utes old the Wolverines had demon-
strated an easy superiority and co-
captain Johnny Sherf had scored
twice on solo dashes. Both teams
played raggedly through the second
period but Michigan came back with
a strong attack in the third to score
four goals in nine minutes.
Crimson Offense Stopped
Wisconsin's offensive was stopped
completely by the effective poke-
checking of the Wolverine forward
line and when a Crimson skater got
past the Michigan red line he was
promptly checked by defenseman
MacCollum or David. Early in the
game a personal feud between Ed
Mercer and the Wolverine defense-
men developed and resulted in double
penalties for the aggressive Badger
and each of the Wolverines in the
second and third stanzas.
Sherf again showed the offensive
ability that made him All-American
left wing last year but Coach Eddie
Lowrey was particularly pleased by
the success of his substitute forward
line. Ed Chase, sandy-haired sopho-
more center made his Varsity debut
and teamed with Gil McEachern and
Walter Courtis to provide effective
<, upperstV r-teegu'Axjowar~s,-.
Goalie Chuck Heyer kept the Wolv-
erines from running the score into
two figures by some fine saves while
the Wolverines were passing the puck
around inside Wisconsin's red line.
In the third period, however, the
Michigan forwards found that Heyer
was weak on low shots and took ad-
vantage of the knowledge to score
four times.
"Lightest Workout"
Only seven saves were credited
to Co-captain John Jewell for the
entire game. He said afterward that
it was the lightest workout he had
ever had in a Varsity game.
Sherf opened the scoring after
three minutes of play when he car-
ried the puck through the Badger
defense andurifled a hard shot into
the net from close in. Seven minutes
later he duplicated the feat, again
nonplussing the Badger defense as
he skated almost into the mouth of
the goal before shooting.
Michigan's substitute line played
approximately half of the second
period, and neither they nor the regu-
lars made very serious attempts to
score, being more occupied in smear-
ing Mercer, to the intense delight of
the x,000 spectators.
Hleyliger Scores
Early in the third period Vic Hey-
liger, who had been doing yoemen's
duty with his fine poke-checking all
evening, batted down a Badger pass
in mid-ice and carried it just across
the red line. His shot hopped past
Heyer into the net.
A minute later Sherf and Heyliger
carried the puck into scoring territory
and, after passing it back and forth
looking for an opening, Heyliger shot
it into the goal to give Michigan a
4 to 0 lead.
Coach Eddie Lowrey sent Chase to

cast ratification by the necessary two-
thirds majority of the three protocols
of accession within a week after floor
arguments began.
The opposition, led by Senators
Borah, (Rep., Idaho), and Johnson,
(Rep., Calif.), stoutly contested this
claim, and went ahead with prepara-

department announced yesterday
that they had recovered their mys-
teriously absent scout car, missing
since Wednesday.
The car was discovered in Lansing

out for the car after the general
broadcast Thursday. As far as clues
indicate, the car proceeded to Lan-
sing under its own power, and parkec
itself to await developments. The
department is still in the dark, but
foul play is suspected. An armed
guard was detailed yesterday to go to

way into the Washington Parish jail
here early today, shot and beat the
convicted Negro slayer to death,
dumped his body alongside a lonely1

Res-ilt In Savings
ALLEGAN, Jan. 11 -(A)- A sav-
ing of $11,000,000 in improvements,
designed to adapt the down-bound
Great Lakes channel to 24 foot navi-
gation, was predicted Thursday by
Maj. R. C. Crawford, United States
district engineer.
Congress approved an appropria-
tion of $29,000,000 for the projects
in 1930. Major Crawford said that
' atest estimates indicate that the

Chicago and the construction of a;
series of compensating weirs acros
the St. Clair and Niag aa Rivers,
would elevate the water in take Hur-
on about one foot. He said that the
deepening program would be com-

the Undergraduate Council, who is in
charge of the survey of student opin-
ion on men's student government be-
ing conducted by the Council prepara-
tory to the adoption of a new form
of government.
The third part of the comparison
consists of an analysis of the officers
as provided for under three proposals
which have been submitted for crit-
icism. The first two parts were com-
parisons of the membership and juris-
dictions of the plans. The complete
plans are being printed in The Daily

Hinders Progress
Of Prof's Lecture
Time, the constant factor of life,
stood still yesterday morning for
Prof. Arthur Cross of the history de-
partment as he regaled his class with
the finer points of ancient English
laws.
Imitating occasional restless stu-
dents who doze off to sleep in lectures
only to awake and work furiously to
make up for their lack of attention,
the lecture room clock faltered and
then ceased its ticking as Professor
Cross continued his explanations.
Ten minutes later, amid the un-
restrained laughter of the students,
the clock, seeming to realize that the
period would never end if its hands
didn't indicate the hour of noon, gal-
vanized itself into sudden action and
tore around a portion of the re-
mainder, of its circuit.

As Court Adjourns Until

(By Associated Press)
The following represents a few of
the facts thus far disclosed in the trial
of Hauptmann.
1. Albert S. Osborn, handwriting
expert, says Bruno wrote ransom
notes.
2. Bronx garageman said Bruno
had had green fenders of car painted
black after kidnaping.
3. Woman says 'she saw Violet
Sharpe, suicide maid, with two m1en
in Yonkers, N.Y., on kidnap night.
4. U.S. detectives believed to be re-

alibi man.
FLEMINGTON, N. J., Jan. 11.-- ()
- A white-haired handwriting expert
in testimony today wedged the Lind-
bergh ransom pen between the car-
penter fingers of Bruno Richard
Hauptmann.
Albert S. Osborn, dignified and as-
sured, fumbled a tiny earphone and
serenely told the jury trying Haupt-
mann for the murder of the Lind-
bergh baby that he was certain all 14
ransom notes were the work of the
unemotional Bruno.
Hauptmann, fingering his chin,
took the international expert's clear,
precise words as if lost in deep
thought. His expression did not
change as the 8-year-old witness
declared that both the ransom notes
and much of the prisoner's "sample"
handwriting after his arrest were dis-
guised, adding: " . . .and that writer
didn't have but one disguise."
Suspect's Eye Meets Colonels
Hauptmann leaned forward to
study his attorney's album of hand-
writing specimens just as Col. Lind-
hergh, too, leaned forward - intent
on the large wall charts which! Os-
born, pointer in hand, was using to
show similarities of words and let-
ters.
For a moment the eyes of father
and prisoner met. Each gazed steadily.
Then both sat erect.
When court adjourned until Mon-
day Osborn still was on the stand
on direct examination, painstakingly
pointing to similarity after similarity
he found in the ransom notes and the
samples Hauptmann, wrote by re-
quest.
He pointed to hundreds of un-
crossed "t's," undotted "i's" in both
batches of script; to recurring, pe-
culiar spelling of words such. as "sig-
nature;" to stubbornly hyphenated
"New York."
Osborn turned the ancient court
room into a laboratory. First he ex-
plained his analysis of the ransom
notes and of Hauptmann's handwrit-
ing; then the state produced enlarged
photographs of words from the two
sets of writings and the expert com-
pared them slowly and carefully.
All Eyes On Osborn
Every eye was upon him when he
accused Hauptmann as the ransom
penman.
Q (by Assistant Attorney General
Joseph J. Lanigan) - Have you made
a careful comparison and examina-
tion of the so-called ransom notes
with the conceded writings and the
request writings of Bruno Richard
Hauptmann?
A -I have.
Q - Does the amount and the char-
acter of the writing which has been
placed before you for comparison and
examination give you sufficient ma-
terial upon which to base a conclu-
sion?,
A, - Yes.
Q - Have you r-eached a conclu-
sion as to the writer?
A -I have.
At this point there was considerable
dispute between attorneys as to the
form of the question, the defense con-
tending Osborn should be asked to
state his "opinion."
Q (by Lanigan) - Based on your
examination and comparison, what
is the opinion you have reached?
A --My opinion is that the ransom

In the matter of scholarship com-
