SAtTURD AY, N OV. 14, 1936 THE MIICHIGAN DAILY Michigan Opposes Wildcats In Final Home Football _ _ ,_.-- Northwestern Is Faced By Grim Foe In Varsity Captain Patanelli In Last Home Game; Cooper Is Ready For Action (Continued from Page 1) son at tackle and Capt. Steve Reid at guard. Game 12th In Series Coach Waldorf has a small army of capable backs at his command, and it is almost impossible to name a starting quartet before game time. Don Heap, Don Geyer and Bernie Jefferson, colored Grand Rapids sophomore, are the running stars of the group, and it is possible that Waldorf may start all three-with Fred Vanzo, furious blocker, at quar- ter. Steve Toth, punter de-luxe and one of the heroes of the Minnesota game, will be in at fullback before the game is very old if he does not start, and blocking Ollie Adelman can be de- pended upon to shine when he enters the fray. Today's game is the 12th between the two teams, with Michigan having been victorious seven times. The Wolverines close' their 1936 season at Columbus next Saturday, meeting Tacklers' Nemesis- Ohio State.

Jackson High ITrips Pioneers By 13-6 Score; Ann Arbor High School's football team closed its season at Withington Stadium in Jackson last night, drop- ping the game 13-6 after leading 6-0 at half time against Jackson High School. Jackson held the edge of a scoreless battle until midway in the second period when a wave of Ann Arbor players recovered a Jackson fumble on the home team's 11-yard line, where Bob Westfall's kick had gone out of bounds. Westfall reached the six-yard line through center, and on the next play Louis Kalb went over around left end. Kalb led the way to the tying score in the third quarter when he fumbled Moelaart's high punt, Sum- ner recovering for Jackson on the Ann Arbor 32. Two plays later Moel- aart's partially blocked pass was snared by Captain Growthers, Jack- son center, who scampered across the goal with the whole line giving him interference.

I-M Sponsors Program F o r Co-Recreation Carrying on an activity about which most of the campus is in the PRESS 1ANLE By GEORE J. ANDR (Daily Sports Editor) Keep' em Crossed.. .. "KEEP your fingers crossed" was Coach Harry Kipke's parting re- mark as I walked out of his office yesterday afternoon.) And I'm do- ing it.) Kip is not being so rash as to predict a win for his young team over the most prominent contender for the national, championship, but he does say that the Wolverines are a good enough bunch of players to turn the trick if they get the jump on their powerful opponents. And those things have been known to hap- pen, you know. Football is like that. It would be one of the biggest upsets of the season, granted, but it is far from being an impossibility. * * * , HAL TOTTEN, National Broadcast- ing Company announcer who will send today's game over the air waves to thousands of listeners, was in Kip's office yesterday getting some dope on what to expect when the Wolver- ines are on the offense. And he did seem well impressed. A short, stocky figure who once was- a second-basemen for Northwestern, Totten had little to say about the Wildcats. He sang the praisesof Fred Vanzo and end John Kovatch and said that Michigan was getting a big break with the inability of Leon Fuller, regular center for Coach Lynn Waldorf's team, to play today because of injuries. "Fuller and Capt. Steve Reid at guard pile up the other team's plays," Totten grinned, "and Vanzo comes along and knocks them over." ** * De-Emphasis Again ... ANOTHER prominent E a s t e r n sports writer has added his bit on the Michigan football situation. Tommy Holmes of the Brooklyn Eagle had quite anarticle on his page the other day under the head- line: "Michigan Grid Team Is Vic- tim of De-Emphasis." Mr. Holmes bases his remark on anstatement the veracity of which I can not verify at the present-that 21 captains of Michigan high school teams applied for admission at the University and only two of them were accepted. Anyhow, it makes good reading. (One of those football de-empha- sizing campaigns out at Ann Arbor makes men of Michigan despair of Wolverine teams for a long, long while. ("It may be for years and it may be forever," a Michigan grad who is a member of the school football alumni association told me not long ago, under existing conditions. ("This year, we had 21 captains of Michigan high school teams enroll as freshmen at the university," he said. ("That doesn't sound so bad." ("It wouldn't have been," he an- swered mournfully, "but the entrance board rejected 19 of them." (That indicates Michigan has en- tered the phase of football de-em- phasis that makes the profs lean over backward to suspect that a broadshouldered young man has more brawn than brains. That makes the famed victory march of the Wolver- ines seem somewhat ironic with its closing line of "Hail, hail to Michi- gan, the champions of the West." Maybe the word "champion" even- tually will be altered to doormats). And he goes on to tell of the fall of the Wolverines during the past three years. * * * Football Material.. . WHILE we are on the subject of Michigan's entrance require- ments, it might be well to take no- tice of some facts Mill Marsh of the Ann Arbor Daily News brought to light yesterday. Mill says: "Michigan alumni can't under- stand why Michigan doesn't have more abundant football material ... Here is one reason . . . Last year Coach Harry Kipke lined up 13 boys considered to be the best in Detroit . Only two of them were able to satisfy the entrance requirements at Michigan . . . He lined up 10 of the best boys from Flint ... But only one got into school here and this boy had One reason why Northwestern has been able to go as far as it has this season is because of its ability to keep opponents from: gaining through the line, and one reason why opponents have been stopped on line plunges is husky Park Wray, who is playing his third year on the Purple team as a tackle. And Mighty Tackle Game Today Is Last Home Tilt For Six Wolverine Gridders Army-Notre Dame, Battle Draws Large New York Crowd CHICAGO, Nov. 13.-(IP)-Besides furnishing the two finest intersec- tional matches of the season, Ne- braska-Pittsburgh at Lincoln and Army-Notre Dame at New York, to- morrow's collegiate football jamboree may indicate whether some of the lately-distributed laurel wreaths have been interwoven with a few sprigs of poison ivy. Northwestern, the nation's current No. 1 team and Big Ten champion, "Fears Michigan." While Fordham takes time out in the Rose Bowl de- bate, Alabama's Crimson Tide is threatened by Georgia Tech. Wash- ington's Huskies, top entry on the West Coast, face the challenge of Southern California's Trojans. Adding impetus to new attendance records for the season, upwards of 80,000 will jam the Yankee Stadium and contribute to a $400,000 "house" to see the Irish of Notre Dame wage their annual and consistently spec- tacular joust with West Point. At Lincoln, a capacity throng of 35,- 650, biggest crowd since the Husker- Notre Dame battle of 1925, will watch Nebraska and Pitt battle it out.

By IRVIN LISAGOR When the final whistle shrills the end of the Wildcat-Wolverine fracas this Saturday, six Michigan men will have donned the moleskins for their final collegiate effort on Sta- dium turf. Three regulars and three reserves constitute the senior corps that bids local fans adieu in this Ann Arbor finale. Chief among them, of course, is Capt. Matt Patanelli, who has been both beacon and bulwark in three years of mediocre Michigan football. Pat has treated the Stadium clientele to a brilliant brand of end play. He has been All-American timber throughout his career, and only the failure of his team to win has kept him from recognition he justly de- serves. This season, despite the burden of a leg injury, he has virtually forced the attention of critics. Minnesota, after watching him push their All- American tackle, Ed Widseth, around the Gopher greensward, called him the outstanding lineman to face them this season. Eastern writers cited him for his performance in the Penn game. Has Weak Ankle Pat goes into the Northwestern game with an ankle still weak from strain, but you can bet cold cash on it-he'll bow out before the home folks playing aggressive, teeth-rat- tling football. That's the only kind the big boy knows how to play. In- cidentally, Capt. Pat will likely own eight sweaters bedecked with a maize monogram before he leaves Michigan. Besides three football let- to attend summer school . . . Out of seven prospects from Grand Rapids and 12 from Toledo, none were per- mitted to enter the University . .

Bill Reed, my pre- decessor and at present doubling at Law School and the Detroit Free Press sports beat, was just in the of- fice and added that Wilfred Smith of the Chicago Tribune is in town to interview the University Registrar on this entrance requirements business. People are wondering. ters, he already has two in basketball and one in baseball. He'll probably add one apiece in both latter sports. Cedric Sweet, fullback mainstay, and Jesse Garber, dependable left guard, complete the regular trio that sings a swan song Saturday. Sweet exemplifies what results grit and determination will produce. Lacking speed and being inept in other phases of the game, Cedric increased his speed by sprinting during summer months, and taught himself to be quite a proficient booter. Garber Comes Through Garber is another of last year's stalwarts who was scheduled for side- line duty this fall.. But before the season was a week old, the sturdy Jesse was in the first front line. The three reserves are Chester Stabovitz, end, Frank Bissell and Ernie Pederson guards. Stabby was used in the Wisconsin game last year at a halfback post, and acquitted himself creditably in the brief per- formance, but his main forte is play- ing end. He has seen service this season as a flanker, proving himself adept at receiving passes. Bissell, who has earned two letters as a Varsity guard, was incapacitated early in the season with a broken jawbone. But the determined little fellow wouldn't quit, going through daily practices without asking any quarters. On the strength of his ef- forts in practice this week, he may see action for the first time this sea- son against the Wildcats today. Pederson, also a letter-winner last year, has kept the family name prom- inent in Michigan football. His fath- er was a former Wolverine guard. STROWS PABST BLUE kIBBON FRIAR'S ALE At All Dealers J.
