Report Tells Of Very
Dangerous Team
Says
Penn Inspired
Varsity Squad Is In Best
Shape Of Season; Frosh
Learn Columbia Plays
Back from Wisconsin with Badger
pelt hanging at their belts, and as-
sured of first place in the Big Ten
for at least two more weeks, Michi-
gan's gridders began preparations for
Columbia by going through a hard
scrimmage with a freshman eleven
yesterday in a driving rain on Ferry
Field.
Coach Harry Kipke announced that
no men were hurt during the rough
game with Wisconsin and that the
squad is in the best shape it has
been in since. the beginning of the
season. Joe Rinaldi, star sophomore
center returned to action yesterday
after a three week layoff occasioned
by a severe cold.
Kipke expressed himself as far
from satisfied with the Wolverines'
showing against the Badgers. He was
pleased with the play during the first
half but was at loss to explain the
second-half letdown which allowed
Wisconsin to score two touchdowns.
Meanwhile Coach Wally Weber,
who scouted Columbia in its disas-
trous 34-0 loss to Pennsylvania Sat-
urday began to drill a freshmen elev-
en with Columbia plays to be used
against the Varsity during the week.
Drill Fresh
Weber explained Columbia's poor
showing against the twice beaten
Pennsylvania team by saying that
the Lions were outweighed 12 pounds
to a man and that Pennsylvania had
an inspired team on the field. He
emphasized the fact that Columbia
would be out to avenge its rout and
that Lou Little's men really would
provide stiff opposition for Michigan.
It was just such a team as this that
surprised the football world two years
ago by upsetting Stanford in the Rose
Bowl and the hero of that game, Al
Barbas, is still in the Columbia back-
field. In Hubert Schulze, the Blue
and White has an end who averaged
45 yards on punts last week and the
Columbia line, while small has plenty
of fight.
Backs Rest
Kipke kept his Varsity backs out of
the scrimmage yesterday and also
gave the line-men who started Satur-
day and rest, letting them run
through signals.
The team which started against the
freshmen was comprised of Joe Rin-
aldi at center, Jess Garber and Walt
Lillie at guard, Ed Greenwald and
Frank Murray at tackle, Ernie John-
son and Earl Meyers at end and
Chuck Grey, Steve Remias, Stark
Ritchie and Joe Ellis in the back-field.
The blocking, while ragged in spots,
was effective against the hard-tack-
ling freshmen and Ritchie tore off
some good gains. Earl Meyers was
blocking well at the end position while
Rinaldi was doing good work at cen-
ter.
Sherf An Improved
Hockey Player As
He Stars With O's
"C'mon, c'mon, Ebbie, cover up, get
him out of the play, nice work, Herbie,
all right, go Johnny, move, can't you
see Barry, pass it, all right, nice work,
no, no that's no way to check a man
Doug, play the man, not the puck,
now - hoist him."
A thudding crash follows this last
bit of advice and Larry Aurie, Scotty
Bauman, and Doug Young are pre-
cipitated across the ice in an indis-
tinguishable mass of skates, sticks
and writhing limbs until the entire
mess crashes into the boards on the
opposite side of the rink.
Calls Halt
A whistle blows shrilly and Jack
Adams, plump manager of the De-
troit Hockey Club calls for a blow in
the practice session as the three play-
ers untangle themselves and join the
rest of the sweating, panting band
of hockey players who cluster around
the boards getting their wind.
Smiling Johnny Sherf, who for
three years thrilled capacity crowds
in the Coliseum at Ann Arbor with his
brilliant solo dashes when he starred
as a University of Michigan forward,
skates up and says hello.
Makes First Line
Always a superb skater as a college
competitor, Sherf's forte was a tre-
mendous speed which he could work
up best by circling behind his own
goal. He depended not so much on
his stick handling ability to get by the
defense as he did on this same speed.
It was for this reason that many of
Johnny's most ardent admirers feared
;hat several season's play might be
necessary for his developing a god
enough stick handling ability to play
big league hockey. Sherf has dis-
played a real desire to learn however.
and in practice so far has appeared
as a definitly improved hockey play-
ar. He is stick-handling like a veter-
an and has also become a very effec-
tive back-check. As a result he is
slated to start at left wing on the
first forward line of the Olympics,
along with Ronnie Hudson, another
amateur find who played with the
Halifax Wolverines, and Wally Kilrea
veteran center of several years.
Spartan Squad Is
Riddled By Injuries
EAST LANSING, Oct. 21.-(IP)-
Michigan State football forces, their
hopes of a national championship
shattered, were riddled with injuries
today as they started preparations
for the game with Washington Uni-
versity of St. Louis. The squadnre-
turned to East Lansing Sunday after-
noon and some of the players went
to the college hospital for treatment.
The injury list includes in addi-
tion to Kurt Warmbein, who was ail-
ing before the Boston game, Howard
Zindel, tackle; Fred Ziegel, halfback;
Julius Sleder, guard; Don Wiseman,
fullback; Joe Buzolitz, center, and
Fred Schroeder, reserve tackle.
Coach Charles Bachman had little
to say regarding the Boston battle.
"It was just one of those games," he
remarked. "They were going great
and we .just couldn't get started."
Twenty Men
Attend Opening
C a g e Practice
First Drill Confined To
Fundamentals; Only Two
Lettermen Report
Twenty Varsity basketbal candi-
dates reported to Coach Franklin C.
Cappon last night at the Intramural
Building for the first practice ses-
sion of the year and for an hour and
a half were drilled on fundamentals.
Two of last year's lettermen were
present, Captain Chelso Tomagno and
John Gee, lanky center who has the
distinction of being the tallest man
of the squad. Notable among the vet-
erans who were absent from the first
drill were Dick Joslin, George Rud-
ness, Dick Evans, John Jablonski
Matt Patanelli and Earl Myers. The
first four are expected to report im-
mediately with the exception of Ev-
ans who will not be able to report for
at least two weeks due to a sprained
knee ligament.
Some Out For Football
Patanelli and Myers, as well as
John Rinaldi, Stark Ritchie, John
Rieck, Bill Barclay and Fred Ziem,
are on the Varsity football squad.]
Cappon's list of candidates will show a
decided increase when football is
over as a large number of men are
at present out for that sport.
Practice will continue at the Intra-
mural Building for several weeks.
About the middle of November the-
basketball floor will be placed in po-
sition in the field house and the
scene of practice will be shifted to
that spot. Until that time the squad
will drill at night, three nights this
week and four each week after this.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday will be the days that Cap-
pon's charges drill.
For several days Cappon will drill
his men strictly on the fundamental
rudiments of the game and is not ex-
pected to put them through a scrim-
mage until late next week. Passing,
dribbling, ball handling, footwork and
shooting will occupy their time until
then when Cappon will attempt to
work out an offense.
Will Change Offense
Cappon has not decided on a defi-
nite plan as yet in regard to the
change in offensive tactics that is
necessitated through the new rule
keeping a man from playing a pivot
position under the basket. He stated
Monday that he will attempt to work
out several plans of attack and not
until he sees how they function in
action will he know what type of
game the Wolverines will display this
winter.
Cappon has a wealth of material
this year, including a number of stel-
lar men from last year's freshman
squad. John and Earl Townsend, the
latter a star at De Pauw for two years
and as a result having but one year
of competition left, were among the
candidates reporting Monday. Cap-
pon is hoping and expecting that the
sophomore material will bolster his
squad and make it one of the out-
standing in the mid-west. Height
appears to dominate the prospective
Varsity with .several returning letter-
men and sophomores towering above
six feet. Ferris Jennings, midget of
the 1934-'35 team, worked out last
night but will not be able to con-
tinue play due to a head injury suf-
fered earlier in the fall in football.

When Michigan's rejuvenated Wol-
verine meets Columbia's Lion in a
"preservation of species" battle at
New York next Saturday it will be
Michigan's eleventh intersectional
game in 10 years. The Maize and
Blue elevens have held up the prestige
of Mid-western football admirably
well during this decade, having won
eight out of the ten contests.
The streak was started off in 1925
when Navy was routed 54-0, Bennys,
Friedman and Oosterbaan were in
their glory that day and the Mid-
shipman backs had cricks in their
necks from watching the ball flying
past them in the air.
Scuttle Fleet
The next year,however, Navy came
back with a vengeance and came out
on the long end of a 10-0 score. Again,
in 1927 the Navy was met and this
time the fleet was scuttled 27-12. The
fortunes of war changed in 1928 when
the two teams played to a 6-6 tie.
John Harvard was the next inter-
sectional opponent of the Wolverines
and in 1929 furnished one of the
greatest exhibitions of football ever
seen by Wolverine Fans. Jack Blott,
Varsity line coach and All-American
center, who is now coaching at Wes-
leyan, called this game the most ex-
citing he had ever seen. Barry Wood
rained passes over the field all after-
noon and when the game ended with
Michigan ahead by the margin of two
extra points after touchdowns, 14-12
the Maize and Blue followers emitted
huge sighs of relief.
Down Harvard Again
In 1930 Harvard was defeated
again, this time 6-3. The next team
from another section of the country
was a traditional rival of Harvard,
another member of the famous Big
Three, Princeton. Michigan once
more humbled Eastern football and
beat the Tigers 21-0. The following
year, 1932, Princeton came to Ann
Arbor, very much the underdog and
put up a surprising exhibition of foot-
ball to'hold the Wolverines to a 14-7
score. Chuck Bernard's blocking of
a punt won the game for Michigan.
A weak Cornell team was battered
into submission by a 40-0 score in
1934 and Georgia Tech went down
last year for Michigan's only victory
when Ferris Jennings ran a punt back
for a touchdown and the Wolverines
won 9-2.

Walter Bietila, a sophomore here at
the University of Michigan, received
notice yesterday to start packing his
travelling bags for a trip abroad this
January. For Walter has been picked
to represent the United States in the
ski-jumping event at the winter
Olympics in Germany.
With five other top notch ski riders
Walter will embark for Germany
January 3rd. When the men arrive
they will immediately enter upon a
month's training period. During this
period four of the six men will be
chosen to compete for championship
honors against skimen from many
lands. The meet is scheduled for late
in February.
Competes At 10
Bietila was born in Ishpeming,
Mich., so naturally he took to skis
as soon as he was able to walk. He
competed in his first meet at the age
of ten. That was the annual Wash-
ington's Birthday meet at Ishpeming.
Walter didn't place, but his hopes;
were not to be dimmed.
Walter just kept on with his prac-,
ticing and waited for his chanceI
again. He got it when he was twelve.
A progressive dealer in Fort auto-
mobiles watched Walter fly down
through space over the snow covered
hills and simultaneously thought of
his business interests. So he sent
Walter off to Ironwood, wearing the
colors of his concern, to compete in a
Ski-jumping tournament. Walter
took a fourth place and from then on
it was merely a matter of shining up
medals.
Gains National Fame
Biettella gained national fame two
winters ago at the National Ski-
jumping ;tournament at Carey Hills,
Chicago, when he tied for first in the
distance leap and placed second in
form competition. It was here that
he qualified to comgpete in Class A by
placing among the first three in Class
B. Walter has sailed 197 feet through
the air in his event.
Ski-jumping is in his family for his
brother, Paul, holds the Junior Ski-
jump record of 208 feet. Paul is only
sixteen years old. Walter is 19, the
youngest man on the Olympic team.
Walter also made a name for him-
self here last year as an amateur box-
er, and as an infielder on the fresh-
man baseball team.
