Attack Saturday,
With three successive victories to
their credit, Coach Harry Kipke's
Wolverines now face the toughest
half of their schedule and yesterday
were put through a long defensive
drill against the freshmen in an ef-
fort to be ready for the Homecoming
invasion of a powerful Pennsylvania
team Saturday.
Using Penn plays, the freshmen
repeatedly gained against the Var-
sity in the first part of the session but
at the end Kipke's grid machine,
which at present tops the Big Ten,
was solving the Penn attack. How-
ever, the Quaker offense as used by
Coach Harmon's first string team
is far different from that used by
the freshmen in that Harmon has
perhaps the most perfectly balanced
team in the East running the plays.
Use Warner System
Penn uses a form of the Warner
single wing back formation and from
Coach Ray Courtright's charts of
three Penn games seems to have a
wide variety of plays for use here.
A hard running backfield composed
of Murray at quarter, Elverson and
Warwick at the halves and Kurlish
at full will be hard to stop as all
four are excellent ball carriers. Not
only that, all four are top notch
blockers and are most adept at tak-
ing out interference. Wide end
sweeps constitute a large part of the
Quaker offense with Warwick, a
University of Pennsylvania's 96
piece band will add to the color
and gala atmosphere of the Mich-
igan Stadium Saturday when
Penn and Michigan meet in the
1935 Homecoming game. The
band will arrive in Ann Arbor at
11 a.m. Friday with the team.

A NEW STORY, which a super-
ficial investigation attributes to
Bennie Oosterbaan, was making the
rounds at football practice yesterday.
John Henry, the story goes, was a
willing, if not distinguished substitute
on one of Coach Yost's early teams.
After keeping his area of the bench
warm game after game, one chill
autumn day the eager Henry finally
was given a call by the Old Man.
Jumping up and running on the
field, poor John pulled up short and
fell to the ground in front of the
referee. He had pulled muscles in
both legs in his sprint, and was car-
ried off the field.
Which was considerably less for-
tunate than the fate of Ernie John-
son, whom the Michigan squad is
calling "the man who came out of
the dog house." Ernie was sent in
Saturday against Columbia primarily
for one play, to kick off, and was left
in long enough to show that he could
play a real game of football at end,
climaxing it by taking a pass from
Bill Renner for Michigan's third
touchdown.
An enterprising, and not to say in-
trepid, young woman reporter for
The Daily enlivened grid practice
yesterday. Assigned by the society
editor to define the type of female
which appeals to the Varsity squad,
her questions brought forth a var-
iety of answers.
Not to anticipate anything she
may write or to reverse her ap-
proach in any way, the general
implication in her interviews was
that Chris Everhardus was the
type of Varsity football player
which most intrigued the Michi-
gan co-ed. Which may or may
not be a distinction.
Yesterday appeared to be discovery
day for Chuck Hoyt. Each person
to return to football practice from
Ferry Field, where the track men
were working out, reported a new and
sensational find by the coach. Re-
ported were sensational discoveries in
the javelin, discus, and sprints. Hoyt,
never over enthusiastic, would be very
pleased if he could report such a
discovery in the high jump and says
little of his other "finds."
14 Teams To Enter Grind
Which Will Be Run Over
Golf Course
The Intramural Sports Department
stages its annual fraternity cross
country meet at 5:15 p.m. today. The
race will start at the Field House and
will continue out over the golf course,
ending back at the starting point, a
total distance of two miles.
All fraternities are eligible to en-
ter the contest. They may enter as
many men in the event as they wish.
The first three men placing for each
house will determine the meet score,
the lowest total point tally winning
first honor.
Last year's meet saw Phi Kappa
Psi's harrier squad cop the honors.
Clayt Brelford ran second, Devine,
third, and Steve Mason scored a fifth
to give The Phi Kappa Psi house the
victory over a fine field of long di's-
tance runners.
There are 14 fraternities ready to
take to the course today. They are:
Phi Kappa Psi, Theta Xi, Pi Lambda
Psi, Psi Upsilon, Alpha Omega, Alpha
Delta Phi, Phi Gamma Delta, Phi
Beta Delta.
Phi Gamma Delta, Phi Beta Delta,
Delta Upsilon, Theta Chi, Alpha Kap-
pa Lambda, Kappa Nu, Phi Sigma
Delta, and Sigma Chi also have teams
entered.

An untried sophomore, Tuffy Thompson (above), performed bril-
liantly for Minnesota against Northwestern and as a result got a
steady job on the Gopher eleven. Thompson, a halfback, is consid-
erably smaller than most Minnesota players, weighing only 168 pounds.

Detroit Ping Pong Club
Wins Over Union Team
An all-star team of Detroit ping
pong players defeated the Union's
pick of table tennisstars three out
of five matches last Saturday at the
Griswold Sport Shop.
The point score was tied up going
into the double matches but Stan
and Harvey Davis, Detroit brother
combination, beat Bob Lahey and
Magee to cinch the match. The scores
were 21-17 and 21-18.
