Captain Will Not
Return This Year
Early reports that Harry "Tiny"
Wright, captain-elect of the wrestling
team and two-letter winner in foot-
ball, will be returning to school at the
beginning of the second semester have1
been spiked by Cliff Keen, wrestling1
coach. Keen said that he did not
expect Wright to return to school at
all.
Wright's absence will force the
grappling squad to elect a new cap-
tain at the beginning of the season.
Frank Bissell, veteran 155 pounder
who left school between semesters to
manage an inherited estate, will be
the only senior candidate for the
captaincy.
Forrest Jordan, promising sopho-
more prospect, will probably take
over Wright's vacated heavyweight
post.

The PRESS ANGLE .

T HIS IS INTENDED for the eyes
of one Robert D'Arcy of the Mich-
igan State News and for another
worthy on the sports staff of that
paper who apparently thought he had
turned out a clever headline when
he topped a story by Mr. D'Arcy with
"Michigan Just One More Game In
Season Now."
By nature I am a very peaceful man
and I have had a softer-than-usual
spot in my heart for the Michigan
State News since sports editor Al
Theiler dished out some very nice
complmients last spring, but enough
is enough.
Would you mind, Mr. D'Arcy, if
I explained to my readers a little
bit about your story and what
this is all about?
"Stagg fears Purdue," Mr.

D'Arcy starts out. He says "this
famous adage has been true not
only of Chicago versus Purdue,
but also of Michigan State versus
the University of Michigan. Until
recent years this fear of State for
the University has had ample
justification, but no longer. No
longer."
Now, folks, isn't that a lovely
touch-"No longer . . .". Ah, yes.
Then our ambitious reporter tells
how Coach Charley Bachman brought
about the change immediately upon
his arrival at State and made good
his promise of a victory over Michi-
gan within two years.
And finally Mr. D'Arcy rises to a
masterful climax punctuated with
many exclamation points.
"The tables are turned," he
points out. "Head Coach Harry
Kipke is not only worried about
'the State game Oct. 3, he is
pointing for it! All of Ann Ar-
bor is concentrated upon State,
games with Ohio State, Minn-
esota, and Illinois, for example,
are forgotten in their anxiety to
get away to a clean start."
At this point we can see Mr.

D'Arcy fairly smirk with honest
pride in his work.
Forget Ohio State? Forget Minn-
esota? Forget cagy Bob Zupke? My,
my, Mr. D'Arcy. They were tradi-
tional rivals when football at the
Michigan Agricultural College (State
to you) played second fiddle to milk-
ing contests held over along Farm
Lane.
Sure we want to beat State-it's
natural to want to win every game,
and one gets tired of handing out
charity with only abuse coming back
in return. So this year we shall
again start our season with the In-
diana game a week after Oct. 3, but
hesitate just a little this coming week-
end to push an upstart back in his
corner.
In case you haven't heard, Mr.
D'Arcy, Coach Kipke has quite a
squad down here this fall. It's
the kind of a squad that Minne-
sota and Ohio State will respect
when the game is over. It's the
kind of a squad that will send
State back to its peaceful Red
Ceder a sadder and wiser team.
"Stagg fears Purdue," Just what is
the comparison there, Mr. D'Arcy?

Purdue was an upstart when Coach
Stagg .used to utter his expression of
pessimism. Certainly State didn't
fear the University because Michigan
was an upstart. Hardly. Look at
your record of the football games
played between the two schools.
And while you're doing that, don't
overlook the two beatings the Mich-
igan Agricultural College handed us
in 1913 and 1915. You seem to have
forgotten them in your story. Have
you ever heard of Carp Julien or
Blake Miller? Ask my.good friend
(and that isn't sarcasm) George Al-
derton about them. One should know
his school's record when he writes
about it, Mr. D'Arcy.
So Michigan is just another
game on State's schedule?
Well, a worm may turn, but
it's still a worm.
Hoyt Orders
First Practice
For track Men

As an added incentive to intramural
sports participants The Daily is this
year offering an award to the indi-
vidual making the outstandingrecord
in the year's program. The award
will be known as The Daily I-M In-
dividual Performance Award.
The fall prog-ram of the intramural
department will officially get under
way on October 6, Earl Riskey, assist-
ant director of intramural athletics,
announced yesterday. On that date
fraternity teams will start play in
the speedball tournament, one of the
three major sports of the program,
and one which counts much towards
individual and team totals in the
championship races.
Exact details of the award have not
yet been worked out, although it has
met with the approval of Director
Mitchell. However, rudimentary plans
favor presenting it to the player scor-
ing the greatest number of points as
recorded by the intramural depart-
ment. Thus, for instance, had the
award been presented last year,
George Bolas, Delta Upsilon,, or Bob
Kunitz, manager of the D.D.s, would
have received it as high-point men.
Deadline October 1st
The deadline for the Speedball
tournament, a fraternity contest, is
Oct. 1. The teams will be placed into
four-team leagues according to ex-
perience and ability of the players.
However, none of the teams which
placed high in the tournament last
year will be put into the same leagues.
Playoffs of first, second, third and
fourth place winners in the various'
legaues will determine the winner.
In an effort to get more teams en-
tering this and other sports held dur-
ing the year, representatives of the
Intramural department are now busy
making the rounds of the fraternities,
introducing them to the different pro-
grams offered and attempting to in-
terest them in entering teams in
more events. . Between 25 and 30
teams are expected to enter the
Speedball tuornament.
Independents Start Late
In order to give the independents
more time to organize, although many
of the independent organizations have
been fully organized for several years
with managers and other officers
elected annually, the start of their
program has been delayed until Oct.
19. At that time touch football is
scheduled to start. Entrees for this
tourney close Oct. 14.
Unlike the fraternities, who have
little difficulty in organizing teams,
if they care to, independents are al-
ways slow to enter organizations in
the intramural program, Mr. Riskey
pointed out.
Six Sports Scheduled
Besides Speedball, six other sports
are listed on the department's fall
program. Outdoor track is placed on
the list this year to replace the cross
country run which has been held
annually for several seasons. This
meet will be held Oct. 15. Volleyball,
handball, dual swimming, water polo
and wrestling are the others of the
program and begin later in the year
The All-Campus program of events,
open to all individuals, starts on Oct.
6. At that time the golf tournament
starts. Entrees for this tourney will
be accepted up until Oct. 1. All-
campus tennis entrees also close on
Oct. 1, and play starts Oct. 7.

Pushed To Better Performance By Sophomore

I



Joe Rinaldi (above), a letterman from last year's Varsity grid squad,
has shown great improvement over his performances of last season
because of the pressure brought to bear upon him by John Jordan.
Jordan is a husky sophomore who, because of his showing in pre-season
practice last spring, won the Chicago Alumni Trophy for the most out-
standing freshman prospect. Rinaldi's performance at center this fall,
however, practically assures him of a starting post in Saturday's tilt with
Michigan State.

McCaffree Is
New Swimming
Aid To Mann
Former Varsity Merman
Returns To Help Coach
Intercollegiate Chamnps
The Varsity natators, 1935-36 In-
tercollegiate champions, are working
out daily at the, Intramural Pool
pending the return of Coach Matt
Mann from his European trip in the
middle of October, when regular
practice sessions will begin. Assistant
Coach Charles MVCaffree, Jr., of the
class of '30 is in charge of the team
until Coach Mann returns.
Coach McCaffree is a former pupil
of Matt Mann, having been on the
Michigan Varsity in '28, '29 and '30.
His specialties were the 220 and 440
yard swims. Following his gradua-
tion from the University, he accepted
a position as swimming coach at
Battle Creek, Mich. High School
where he has coached for the past
six years.
He has to his credit six teams, all
of which won the state 5A swimming
,hampionship for Battle Creek High
school. At present he is enrolled
in the University doing graduate
work, as well as assisting in the
coaching of the freshman and Var-
sity swimming squads. When Coach
Matt Mann resumes his coaching
duties, McCaffree will take charge
of the lesser details involved in whip-
ping another championship squad of
mermen into shape for the coming
season.
Gedeon Outfielder On
Champ Sandlot Team
Elmer Gedeon, who did a fine bit of
pitching for Coach Bennie Ooster-
baan's freshman baseball team last
year and who is expected to prove a
valuable asset to Coach Ray Fisher's
Varsity nine this year, put in some
valuable practice this summer with
the National Class A Champion Fish-
er Foods of Cleveland.

1938 Grid Schedule
To Feature Yale Clash
Michigan's 1938 football sched-
ule, featuring intersectional clashes
with Yale and Pennsylvania, has
been announced by Coach Harry
Kipke.
The Yale game, the first of a
home and home series which will
be staged in the Yale Bowl in 1938
and the Michigan Stadium in 1939,
will be the first meeting of the
teams since 1883 when the Bull-
dogs won by a score of 46-0. The
only previous game was in 1881,
Yale also winning that, 11-0.
The complete 1938 schedule:
Oct. 1, Michigan State at home;
Oct. 8, Chicago at home; Oct. 15,
Minnesota at Minneapolis; Oct.
22, Yale at New Haven; Oct. 29,
Illinois at home; Nov. 5, Pennsyl-
vania at home; Nov. 12, North-
western at home; Nov. 19, Ohio
State at Columbus.

Fan Confidence
Shown In Early
Gri Tiicket Sale
That the football fans of Mich-
igan are generally expecting this
Wolverine eleven to be the strongest
since 1933 is definitely reflected in
the advance sale of tickets through
Harry Tillotson's office at the Ad-
ministration Building.
Present indications point to the
crowd for Saturday's opener with
Michigan State reaching a total of
perhaps 60,000 with more than 12,000
coming here from Lansing for the
encounter. Of course the size of the
crowd will depend largely upon the
weather man and his treatment of
Ann Arbor that day.
There is also a heavy advance sale
for the Indiana and Columbia games
and even this early for the Illinois
and Northwestern tilts.

Low Scoring Frosh
Golfers Play Free
With Johnny Fischer's National
Amateur championship dangling be-
fore their eyes as an incentive, fresh-
man golf players have come from
far and wide to play for Michigan.
As has always been the case in re-'
cent years, the cream of the fresh-
man talent in this part of the coun-
try has come to Ann Arbor.
It is perhaps a little premature
to try to pick the best players out
of this year's crop but a number
of the freshmen have already shown
up well in practice rounds and stand
a good chance of making the fresh-
man team.
Among the better yearling players
are Ken Johnson of Jackson, Mich.;
Ed Christensen, a husky lad who
hails from northern Minnesota; Fred
Lamb of Detroit; and Tony Carlo of
Elkhart, Ind..
About eight freshmen are picked on
a medal play basis and are allowed
to play free of charge on the Uni-,
versity course for the rest of the year
as long as they keep posting scores
I below the other freshmen

Coach Charlie Hoyt's Varsity track
squad reported yesterday for its first
practice session of the year to open
a Fall outdoor season which will in-
clude two intra-squad practice meets
and extend to November 1 weather
permitting. Hoyt also issued a call
for all others interested in Varsity
track to check out suits on a "no'
experience needed" basis.
Hoyt will combine the forces of
a big part of his last year's crack
Wolverine Varsity team and the pow-
erful '39 freshmen, nowisophomores
and eligible for competition. Should
this merger come up to expectations
the Maize and Blue will be represent-
ed on the cinder paths by one of the
finest squads in its track history.
The Michigan squad will be par-
ticularly strong in the sprints from
the indoor sixty yard distance
through the quarter mile. Leading
the sprint parade will be stocky Sam
Stoller, Michigan's outstanding dash
artist and veteran of the Olympic
wars.
Stoller has a particular talent for
the indoor sixty yard dash due to
his ability to get under way at top
speed. It was in this event that
Stoller equalled Jesse Owens' world
record as he turned the distance in
6.2 seconds in the trial heats at the
Big Ten Conference meet last winter.
Stoller is also an outstanding century
performer with several 9:5 runs to
his credit. Backing up Stoller will
be three graduates of Ken Doherty's
freshman track school who will make
their first Varsity starts this year.
Allan Smith will come to the Var-
sity squad boasting a 9.9 perform-
ance in the 100-yard dash and very
creditable performances in all dis-
tances through the 440.
Roy Heath ran to a new fresh-
man record in the 220-yard dash in

With a week of heavy scrimmag-
ing and about 40 plays tucked under
their belt, the Wolverine gridders
embarked on their first schedule of
one-a-day practices with the begin-'
ning of classes yesterday.
On the basisof performances dur-
ing the past week, Coach Harry
Kipke has selected a tentative line-
up that will probably get the starting
call for the Spartan game. Of these
potential starters, at least four and
possibly six of them will be per-
forming on the stadium sod for the
first time.
A distinctly improved offensive
ability that had all the power and
W the drive of for-
mer championship
teams has been

feature of the in-
ter-squad clashes
to date. Augering

of last year's de-
feat at the hands
of the Michigan

PATANELLI this aggressiveness
is shown in the finest spirit a Mich-
igan team has possessed in many
years.
Only two regulars are slated to
retain their posts in the Wolverine

Year's wingback, and Cedric Sweet,
hard-hitting fullback from Fremont,
Mich. Smithers has been showing
his consistent good form that char-
acterized his play until he was in-
jured in the Columbia game last fall,
while Sweet has been flashing a new-
ly-acquired speed that has aided him
in getting a slight edge over one
of the newcomers, Bob Curren, a
sophomore from Warren, Pa., who
has been described by coaches as
one of the fastest running backs ever
to hit the Michigan campus,
New faces in the backfield will be
those of Bob Cooper, winner of the
Chicago Alumni trophy in spring
practice two years ago, and Edward
Stanton, a 19-year-old sophomore
whose bulk and ability belie his age.
It was Cooper's pre-season injury last
year that put a damper on Michigan
hopes early in the fall. This year
he has thus far escaped the injury
jinx, and is rated as a triple threat,
with exceptional running and punt-
ing ability.
Stanton is the fair-haired sopho-
more hope whose savage play has
earned him the re-
spect of the entire
squad. "When that
boy plays, he plays
