THURSDAY, MAY 22,19,33 THE MICHIGAN DAILY 77 V 7 p Hoyt Names 28 Man Squad To Compete Seventeen Will Make Debuts Varsity Netmen And Baseball Team In Title Event Ward Is Entered In Four Events As Stoller And Stiles Run In Three Eckert Withdrawn Harvey Patton To Replace Osgood, Hurdle Star, On Mile RelayTeam Coach Charlie Hoyt named 28 men yesterday, only 11 of whom had ever run in an outdoor title meet before, who will make up the Michigan squad in the Big Ten track meet Friday and Saturday. The Wolverine team will probably be the largest in the Ferry Field stadium. The group includes: Captain Har- vey Smith, Clayton Brelsford, Willis Ward. Bob Osgood, Dave Hunn, Sam Stoller, Harry O'Connell, Paul Pinker- ton, Harvey Patton, Stan Birleson Fred Stiles, Moreau Hunt, Tom Fisher, Tony Serakos, Walt Stone, Fred Aikens, Rod Howell, Howard Da- vidson, Martin Alexander, Widmer Etchells, Mike Kositchek, Mel Silver- man, Ed Stone, Konrad Moisio, Win- ston Moore, Ed. De Vine, Mike Sav- age and Nelson Droulard. Ward In Four Evcnts Ward, back in condition again, leads the entry list by being sched- uled to compete in four events, 100- yard dash, 120-yard high hurdles, broad jump, and high jump. Sam Stollerhand Fred Stiles are second with three. Both will run in the dashes, with Stoller in the broad -jump for his third event and Stiles counted on to help in the mile re- lay. The relay quartet was also named by Hoyt. Because of the withdrawal of Bob Osgood from the event, the Wolverine mentor was, forced to add a new man to the team which won the race indoors. Osgood was re- placed because the low hurdles finals immediately precede the relay on Saturday's schedule. In his place will be Harvey Patton, diminutive 440 ace. The others are Birleson, Stiles, Aikens, and Davidson as alternate. Simplifies 440 Problem Vern Eckert, who had been counted on to score for Illinois, will not run because of an injury. Eckert was second in the 220 and fourth in the 100 last year and won third in the quarter in the indoor meet this sea- son. His withdrawal helps to simplify a badly muddled 440 for too many men have turned in performances around the 49 second mark. Duane Purvis, who was injured dur- ing practice for the East-West game during Christmas vacation, is the only other star who is known to be troubled enough by injuries to keep him from competing. It is not defi- nitely known whether his shoulder is knit sufficiently to allow him to throw the javelin, in which he is picked to score. Coaches And Directors Hold Annual Me e t Big Ten athletic directors and coaches will hold their annual meet- ing here tomorrow morning and eve- ning at the Michigan Union. Faculty representatives and athletic directors will split up and hold separate meet- ings at 9 a.m. at which will be decid- ed the Conference schedules for 1937 and 1938. The track coaches meet at 10 a.m. and hold their annual din- ner Friday night. Local interest at the meeting will center around Michigan's intersec- tional schedule after 1936. Contracts with Pennsylvania and Columbia who will be met in 1935 and 1936 expire after that year and there is some un- certainty as to whether the Wolver- ines will continue playing two inter- sectional games after that date. Un- der the old plan Michigan played six Big Ten games during the regular season and since Michigan State has been a fixture on the Wolverine schedule, room was left for only one game with a team hailing from an- other section. Games which Michigan will defi- nitely play in these years are with its traditional rival, Ohio State, Illinois, Michigan State and the "Little Brown Jug" game with Minnesota. The Wolverines' 1935 and 1936 cards are already completed. At 9 a.m. today about 40 of the representatives will tee off at the University Course in an open tourna- ment which will last until 3 p.m. when the golf match between Johnny Fischer nd Chuck Koesis on on The HOT STOVE By BILL REED i TODAY'S ESSAY is devoted to some attention to the arts of the track dopester, being gleaned especially from some remarks of Phil Diamond, dean of the local body, with regard to the Big Ten Track and Field Meet. As a major premise, contention for the team title Saturday will be waged between Michigan and Ohio State ac- cording to the concensus of dope; sheets, with the Wolverines favored by a slight edge. In one of the most precarious prognostications of the spring season, Michigan is given that edge on the basis of possible per-, formances while Ohio State's score is the result of a concession of five or six firsts and possible showings for the remainder. And because the strength and balance of the Michigan team exceeds that of anything ap- parent, its minimum possibilities mount faster than the conceded wins and possible placings of the Buck- eyes. To elaborate upon that bit of ab- stract hypothesis, Owens with the hundred, 220-yard dash, low hurdles and broad jump spots the Buckeyes 20 points, and Charlie Beetham in the half gives another first. George Neal, who has recorded the best shot put of the season may be given an- other first. But counting all possible showings in other events most opti- mistically, the dopesters refuse to give the Buckeyes more than 20 points on top of that 30. Michigan, on the other hand, is not given an outright concession in any event, with the exception of the high hurdles in which Ward and Osgood are given a better than outside chance to place one-two. But without firsts, the Wolverine powerhouse is given a maximum total of 60 points because of the consistent showing of the team. In other words, Michigan's entire squad may be expected to be consis- tently good on its season's showings. If the competition is hot, Michigan may possibly be shoved down. If the competition is not so hot, Michigan's consistent strength may logically be expected to raise the point total. But under any conditions, it is expected that Michigan will show well, and it is because the dopesters can rely on that that the Wolverines are today's "Dopesters' Friends." "If's" of course are the boon com- panion of the dopester, and this year has provided its share, the question marks being especially important at the moment as they have direct bear- ing on the final results. Willis Ward was installed at the beginning of the Conference outdoor season as the big- gest enigma, but his recent showings have tended to eliminate that. Today the biggest question mark is the Iowa team, which holds the key to the entire situation with its bevy of stars in the hundred through the quarter-mile. As Chuck Hoyt re- marks, "We'd be in if they wrecked that crew on the way up here." Added to its key-nature has been rumors of squad disssension which kept some of the members out for a period, but ,the latest information seems to indi- cate that the Hawkeyes will be here in force. Another "If" and one which is paramount, is the weather, and it is perhaps the most important. 'They all look alike in the rain." One of the most colorful figures in football is in Ann Arbor for the re- mainder of the week, Bob Zuppke of Illinois. Not so restless as he is in the fall, Zup spent yesterday after- noon in golf with Fielding H. Yost, who is also a colorful figure. They reported an even match. Announcement of the scheduling of one of Michigan's intersectional grid opponents for 1937-38 will probably be made today, it was revealed yes- terday. Director Yost has been ne- gotiating with several eastern schools for the engagement, among whom are presumably Columbia and Pennsly- vania, 1935-36 opponents.

Wisconsin, winner of only two games this year, will probably use Pearson and Tomek against the Wolverines. Tomek is the star of the staff, having won five games this year, including both of the Badgers' Conference victories. Although Michigan is definitely out of the championship battle, the Var- sity can lift itself a great deal nearer the top by wins in the three remain- ing Big Ten games, especially since both Illinois and Chicago were beaten Tuesday. Illinois finished its season by losing to Purdue, 5-2, and is at the top with seven wins and three !losses.
