Tech Divides Hockey Series With Minnesota Miners Outscore Gophers 1-0 In Overtime; Lose First Game 2-1 HOUGHTON, Jan. 30.--A)-Play- ing their heavier opponents to a standstill, the Michigan Tech hockey team this afternoon defeated Univer- sity of Minesota, 1-0, to even up their two-game series which featured Tech's annual Winter Carnival. Min- nesota won the opener, 2-1. An overtime period was needed to decide today's battle, the winning goal being scored after a minute's play in the extra session, when be- spectacled Joe Stack, Tech winger, sneaked the puck past goalie Bud Wilkinson for the only goal of the game. Winning Shot Comes Quick Hardly had referee Phil Peterson dropped the disc to open the over- time when the puck was picked up by George McCarthy, fast skating Tech center. He took it almost to the Minnesota blue line before laying down a neat pass to Stack, who banked it past .Wilkinson. The net minter's view was obstructed by a mass of players' legs, and Stack's shot skimmed along only two inches above the ice. The burly, hard charging Gophers fought a hard game in an effort to beat goalie Ed Maki, but the Tech net guardian turned aside a total of 33 shots. Using three complete for- ward lines, the Minnesotans dis- played some nice teamwork, but Tech's defense was strong enough to turn back all threats. The return of Mullen, after an illness, gave Tech an experienced defense man. Meet At Minneapolis Tech and Minnesota renew their series in two games at Minneapolis next week-end. Joe Stringer, scout of the Chicago Blackhawks, witessed today's game. The Hawks recently announced a plan to rely on American-born hockey talent within two years. Stringer will attend games of the Northern Michigan Hockey League here Sun- day and at Calumet Thursday. LINEUPS : Michigan Tech Pos. Minnesota Maki .......... G.......

Not wasting any time, the matmen depart Saturday, Feb. 12 for Evans- ton, Ill., where they will meet North- western's Wildcats on Feb. 15. The Wildcats have met with fair success in the Conference this year, but the Varsity is heavily favored to emerge victorious. On Feb. 20, Ohio State's matmen will invade the Wolverine camp, and the Varsity should take the Buckeyes without too much trouble. On March 1, Indiana will provide the Varsity with their first real competition, since the Lehigh meet and the true mettle of the matmen will be well tested against the "Fightin' Hoosiers," al- ways a very tough outfit.

Gehrig Announces 2,500 Consecutive Games As His Goal By ALAN GOULD NEW YORK, Jan. 30.--W)-Lou Gehrig threw a party today for base- ball writers, not to reveal any par-' titular developments in his current contract differences with the Yankees but to disclose his ambition to stretch his "Iron Man" playing record to 2,- 500 consecutive games. Already holder of the all-time rec- ord of an unbroken string of 1,808 games, covering a dozen seasons, Gehrig's announced goal means that, to achieve it, he must play four and a half more years without missing a ball game. Lou Is Optimistic "Maybe I'm optimistic," grinned Lou, as the boys pinned him down to facts and figures, "but I'm only 33 now and I don't see why I can't aim at 2,500 games in a row and leave 'em something to remember me by. "I may need the breaks to do it, but so far as I'm concerned, there's no special strain to playing every day. I'd rather be in the game so long as I'm not doing the club or my healthl any harm." Thereby, in effect, Gehrig gaveI emphasis to his rebuttal to Babe Ruth's suggestion it would take the strain off Lou and lengthen his base- ball playing career fi he broke his consecutive-game string. Wagner Greatest Gehrig didn't take kindly to the remarks, it seems, on top of that when somebody changed the subject to ask Gehrig who he rated the great- est all-around player of all time, Lou replied: "Honus Wagner-because he was not only a wonderful shortstop, but a great team man-the best I ever saw.' p~\LLLR2' rATE ITREET E EW ELER .
