w.,..&tx, l'vvvjY vA YAFJ, lvdDTHE MICHIGAN DAILY Injuries Again Force Kipke To AlterLine-Up Sobsey, Valpey Sustain Minor Hurts; Garber May Start Saturday After being practically decided on a starting lineup for Saturday's game with Pennsylvania, Coach Harry Kipke was again "up in the air,, over the matter at the end of last night's hara practice session due to injuries to Sol Sobsey, regular guard, and Art Valpey, who was expected to get the call at right end. Sobsey strained ligaments in his left shoulder during a scrimmage with the freshmen. Dr. Frank Ly- nam stated that the extent of the injury would not be known until some time today but that Sobsey could not -drill this afternoon and may not be able to play Saturday: Valpey was kicked in the head earlier in the drill and suffered a slight con- cussion, being unable to remember where he lived. Viergever May Start Kipke said after practice that if Sobsey could not play John Vier- gever, whom he had wished to keep out of the game altogether due to a leg injury, would probably start at the tackle position with Wright at center: If Sobsey can play, Vier- gever may be kept out in favor of Jesse Garber who has been impressive while drilling with the Varsity, the last two nights. Doctors stated that Valpey would probably be in good condition today and if so he will probably start at right end in place of Mike Savage. The line has presented a big prob- lem to Kipke all week. In the back- field Sweet, Everhardus, Smithers and Renner will start and practice the last two nights has indicated' that these four will provide Michigan fans' with more deceptive football than any Wolverine backfield has shown in a number of games. Depend On Passes Forward passes, Yale and Prince- ton's means of beating the Quakers, will play a big part in the Michigan attack as the coaches feel that if Michigan wins it will be by the over- head route. A long scrimmage with the fresh- men, who used Penn plays, again dominated yesterday's practice and as on Wednesday the Varsity often managed to- drop the yearling backs behind the line. Tonight the squad will taper off the week's hard drilling with a short practice that Coach Kipke hopes will leave them in per- fect condition for the Quaker affair. Solve Double Identity Case Of John Smithers Johnny Smithers, sensational sophomore halfback whose block- ing ability has been largely re- sponsible for the success of the Wolverine running attack this season, is hard to confuse with anybody else - at least that is what people thought up to yester- day. Short, stocky, and with well groomed black hair, Smithers is pretty much of a separate entity. To a local Ann Arbor paper, however, Johnny is a ferocious looking fellow with a typical bristle haircut - and he sticks his tongue out at opposing teams. Emphatic denial by Smithers of any of these characteristics brought about further research which revealed that the picture which bore Smithers' name ex- plained the above mentioned fea- tures as a determined look that forbode ill to any who might "bar his path," was really a very poor picture of Walt Lillie, reserve guard, taken when he was in a bad humor. Freshman Swimming Team Threatens Supremacy Of National Champions By GEORGE J. ANDROS A freshman team that can beat a National Collegiate championship Varsity? It sounds impossible, but all out- ward appearances seem to show that such is the situation existing at present down at the Intramural pool where Coach Matt Mann is putting his swimmers through their paces. The explanation lies in the fact that the Varsity is noticeably weak in the free-style events, while the yearl- ings boast a group of free-stylers who have already established nation-wide reputations. It is obviously difficult to pick arty one man as outstanding from a list that includes such stars as Baker Bryant and Ed Kirar, late of Ohio State and Wisconsin respectively, Tom Haynie and Dave Holmes of De- troit, and Bob Farnsworth of Buf- falo. Bryant Is Conference Star Bryant, as a sophomore at Ohio State last year, placed second in the 100-yard dash and fourth in the 220 in the Conference meet, and fifth in the century in the nationals. While Kirar was a relative un- known before the Big Ten meet last spring, his feat in taking a close sec- ond behind Chuck Flachmann, Na- tional Collegiate champion, in the 50-yard sprint established his reputa- tion. Haynie is a slight lad of 19 who has really "been around" in the swim- ming world. In 1934, as a student at Massanutten Military Academy of Woodstock, Va., he was picked num- ber-one man on the All-American === -il The HOT STOVE] By BILL REED 11 prep school team at 440 yards. The same year, competing for the Detroit A.C., Haynie placed third in the National A.A.U. meet at 500 yards. Last winter the former Detroit Northwestern swimmer touched out Frank Barnard of the Varsity in the 500-yard event in the Michigan A.A.U. championships, and then went on to prove his versatility in the national meet by eclipsing Michigan's Taylor Drysdale in the 300-yard individual medley. Drysdale is world's record holder for this event. Set Prep Mark Farnsworth established a new Na- tional Interscholastic record for 50- yards with the sensational time of :23:8 while competing for Mercers- berg Academy. While Holmes does not have as well established a reputation as some of his team mates, the showing of the Chadsey High product in practice at all distances from 220 yards to a mile gives indication that he may be' well on his way toward becoming the real star of the outfit. Others on the 15-man group of "outstanding prospects," chosen by Coach Mann from a squad of 36 and from a original turnout of 125 fresh- men, are Tom Robinson of Indianap- olis in the back-stroke, free-styler Lee Tomski of Detroit Eastern,-versa- Varsity Passers Have Completed 22 Of 42 Attempts Last year many critics only laughed when Michigan fans, trying to find a ray of optimism, despite seven de- feats, said that Capt. Bill Renner's passing would make a real difference in the results next year. However, statistics of the four games played so far this season show that Ren- ner's right arm has made more dif- ference than most had even hoped for. With half of the schedule com- pleted the Wolverines have attempted 42 passes and been successful in 22, for an average of .523. Last year, in four major. tilts, 32 attempts were made and only 8 were completed. Renner was on the hurling end of all but two of the passes. Most every touchdown that the Varsity has made has been, either directly or indirectly, through the air. Today Coach Kipke boasts one of the most feared pass- ing attacks in the country. ond GreaPqt the Ed Kent of Westminster School of New York City, Bob Emmet of Detroit Northwestern, F. Parske of Buffalo and Dick Dale of Evanston in the free-style, Bob Sauer of Ypsi Roosevelt and Jackson in the back- stroke, Ed Vincent of Wayne and B. Bohn of St. Louis in the breast stroke, and diver Jack Newhouse of Min- neapolis. Spartans Off To Battle Big Temple Eleven EAST LANSING, Oct. 31. - (kP) - The Mighty Mites, of Michigan State, set forth today to battle Temple's giant undefeated team in Phila- delphia Saturday. Head Coach Charlie Bachman took three full teams with him for the blood-and-thunder battle he ex- pects with Pop Warner's heavyweight tricksters, who outweigh the Spar- tans some 30 pounds to the man. Warner's announcement that he had foxed Michigan State scouts by saving a whole new slate of plays as a surprise greeting to the Spartans, drew no comment from Bachman as the team wound upaits going-away drill and boarded a Philadelphia- bound train. Bachman grinned wrily, his players winked. It is a widely- accepted corolary that no football team in creation can turn out an en- tirely new set of plays for any game. The Spartans shook out a rolling series of line plays in their heaviest departure drill this afternoon, that clicked with encouraging smooth- nes4. Many of the experts shook their heads, however, and stuck to their earlier decision that State was biting off more than it can chew in tackling Warner's football steam-roller. r III Cappy Cappon said a few weeks ago that "Enthusiasm breeds mo- mentum." He might have said just as truthfully, that "Momentum breeds enthusiasm." The master minds are saying that if Michigan gets off to a two touch- down lead tomorrow as they did against Columbia they'll whip Penn- sylvania. Obviously then, enthu- siasm that is bred by the team's momentum isn't going to be of much use. The solution seems to be to cheer like hell before the game and during the first quarter. Let's hear these really boom! LOCOMOTIVE Rah, rah, rah, rah, Mich-igan, Mich-igan, Rah, rah, rah, rah, Mich-igan, Mich-igan. Rah, rah, rah, rah, Mich-igan, Mich-igan. Yea.

Sports Of The Day I BOSTON - Sailor Jack Sharkey, former heavy-weight champion of the world started active training yester- day for a comeback campaign to prove that his defeat by King Le- vinsky two years ago was not the end of his fighting career. COLUMBUS - Dopesters predict that Ohio State will defeat Notre Dame by a margin of two touch- downs Saturday. They base their predictions on Joe Williams and the strong reserve power which Francis Schmidt has at his disposal.

The Titans have only one 200 pounder in their forward wall but all this season no team has made two consecutive first downs against them by rushing and only Villanova has scored on running plays. Having met and conquered the in- comparable Al Barabas, Coach Harry Kipke's gridiron machine is now awaiting the meeting of the No. 1 Quaker from the University of Penn- sylvania, Bill Kurlish, who with the aid of three other triple threat backs, has Philadelphia fandom predicting that the Quakers will march through the rest of their schedule without de- feat.

Harmon's forces to a 34-0 victory over the Columbia Lions to put Penn back on the solid footing that had ap- peared theirs for the asking before the season's campaign opened. Last Saturday it was the entire Penn roster that participated in the 67- 0 destruction of Lafayette with Kur- lish again the spearhead of the open- ing drive. All Four Are Stars Kurlish, the fullback about whom Harmon has built his attack, is not the only star in the Penn camp; ac- cording to reports from the east Har- mon has a whole constellation with Murray, Warwick and Elverson rounding out a great backfield that has plenty of time to get started while a tough line holds the enemy at bay. Dubbed "first half champs" but "scond half chumps" by Phila- delphia newspapermen when they dropped their first two games to Princeton and Yale after leading at the half, Penn opened up in the third engagement and took its wrath out on Lou Little's Lions. Had To Beat Lions When Penn advanced on Columbia it had everything to gain by a victory. Its supporters were disgusted with the way it had flopped against Princeton and Yale. Had Columbia added more humiliation to Harmon and his charges Penn would have had little support for the remainder of the season. Realizing what was at stake, Penn shot its bolt in that game and was successful. , The Quaker backfield is intact from 1934. Graduation took but two men and left a squad that looked tremendously impressive on paper early in the fall. A hard charging line, led by Capt. Paul Stofko at guard, had little trouble in its last two starts but may find the going stiffer when it comes face to face with Kipke's huge forward wall this week.
