Cold Weather
Fails To Halt
Grid Practice
Team Sent Through Long
Signal Drill And Dummy
Scrimmage By Kipke
Despite cold weather and a snow-
covered field, a large crew of foot-
ball players worked out for more than
two hours yesterday afternoon going
through signal drills and a dummy.
scrimmage.
Although the field was'slippery, the
gridders showed a great deal of drive
as they ran through the new plays
that were issued to them a few days
ago. Coach Kipke had Louie Levine
at the signal-calling post throughout
most of the drill although he switched
the other backfield members around
freely.
Kip used Levine, Hercules Renda,
Harry Mulholland, Bob Piotroski,
Fred Trosko and a number of others
in the backfield combination. Capt.
Joe Rinaldi and John Jordan alter-
nated at center on the offensive
squad.
After running through signals most
of the afternoon, Kip and Hunk An-
derson sent the tentative first and
second string teams through a short
dummy scrimmage. Most of the plays
that were used went through the line
although a few passes and a lateral
or two were attempted.
The defensive line was charging
fast and gave their opponents plenty
of trouble. Fred Olds, a senior, who
has been bothered with the injury
jinx every year was in at guard on
the defensive team yesterday and
looked good as he stopped plays cold
time after time. Olds has formerly
played at center or tackle, but his
new guard position seems to suit him
well.
HEY JOE--
Have you looked over the new
card and letter files at Rider's?
They sure have got just what I
want, and priced right, too.
Ex-Mat Leader Gives
Prank Bissell, ex-captain of the
Varsity team, has donated 50 dol-
lars to further wrestling interests
at Michigan, mat coach Cliff Keen
announced yesterday.
Bissell said his intention is to
have Keen use the money in any
manner that the grappling mentor
may see fit in order to promote
this end.
The ex-mat captain, who re-
cently resigned from the Univer-
sity, and Mrs. Bissell left Wednes-
day for West Palm Beach, Fla.,
where they will spend a brief va-
cation.
Looking 'Em Over
C.A.G._
OLD TIMERS will see a familiar
face in uniform at the Field
House these days in Walter Peckin-
paugh, who bears a strong resem-
blance to his father, Roger, formerly
manager of the Cleveland Indians.
Ray Fisher and Peckinpaugh senior
played together for seven years with
the Yankees.'
You see some hopeful freshmen
wandering around the Field House
these days in pretty weird outfits-
the hand-me-downs from former
years. The most common suits are
the type with wide vertical stripes,
while the outstanding one is a rose-
colored creation. Rumor has it that
there is a bright green outfit too,
but it is still in hiding.

Most of the boys on the squad
have become quite expert at the noble
art of sliding under the careful tute-
lage of Bennie Oosterbaan. The next
step in teaching the art of base-steal-
ing will be that of putting a player
on the bag to try to put the runner
out" as.phe slides into the base.

Defense Today
Yale, O.S.U. Are Varsity
Tankers' Biggest Threat
For 8th Straight Win
The National Collegiate swimming
championships will get under way at
10 a.m. today when the representa-
tives of 24 colleges and universities
invade the pool of the University of
Minnesota at Minneapolis.
The first gun will sound when a
field of top-notch distance swimmers
take to the pool for time trials in
the 1500-meter free-style event. This
grind requires 66-odd lengths of the
25-yard pool. The second and only
other event scheduled for the morn-
ing is the preliminary in the low-
board diving.
The afternoon's events include pre-
liminaries in the 50 and 220-yard
free-style swims, the 150-yard back-
stroke and the 300-yard medley re-
lay. Finals in all of these events are
scheduled for the evening.
Saturday is the big day for the
swimmers especially the free-stylers.
The 100 and 440-yard swims, the
400-yard relay, the 200-yard breast-
stroke and the 3-meter board diving
will all be run at that time. Prelim-
inary heats will be run in the morning
and afternoon with the finals sched-
uled for the evening.
Michigan, title defenders will bump
up against some first-rate compe-
tition in nearly every event. Yale,
Rutgers, Stanford, Iowa, Minnesota,
Ohio State, Princeton, Dartmouth, to
mention only a few, will be on hand
with plenty of good men to shove in
against the National champions. Only
two teams, however, are rated a
chance to upset the great Varsity ag-
gregation, Yale and Ohio State. The
Wolverines have twice defeated the,
Buckeyes, however, and it is doubtful
if the Eli swimmers can garner
enough points to take the team title
away from them.f
Wrestlers End
Season Today
In A.A.U. Meet
The Michigan wrestiing teams will
get their last chance of the year to
show their strength when they go to
the Michigan A.A.U. wrestling meet
today and tomorrow at the Dearborn
Athletic Club. A suad of nearly
thirty men, three lettermen Harold
Nichols, "Abe" Lincoln, and Dick
Tasch, the entire freshman squad and
a part of the Varsity reserve team
will make the trip.
So far this year the freshmen have
had no chance to show what they can
.1, and this meet will give them a
chance to get some experience and at
the same time give Coach Jim Kelly,
the freshman mentor. and Cliff Keen
some idea of the prospects for the
coming year. The yearling squad
this season is quite small in com-
parison to last year's team,.but there
are some very good wrestlers on it,
according to Coach Keiiy.
Along with the Wolverines at this
meet will be Michigan State, Wayne
University, the Dearborn A.C., and
a few of the outstanding high school
squads of the state.
One of the main features of the
meet will be an eight man team from
Grand Rapids. This team is made
up of the winners of the all-city
tournament and is the first one of
its kind in the state in recent years.
The college coaches of the state are
hoping that this is the beginning of
the revival of high scbrol wrestling
in the state which will mean a great
deal to college wrestling.

The PR ESS ANGL E
By GEORGE J. ANDROS
Peace On Earth ...
THE SPORTS EDITORS of the student newspapers of Michigan State,
the University of Detroit and the University of Michigan drifted into
the Fisher Tower quarters of Radio Station WJR Wednesday evening,
locked around rather suspiciously and sat down. They all carried chips on
their shoulders and were steeped with curiosity and good advice. Before long
Sports Announcer Harry Wismer blew in out of a haze of cigar smoke,
ushered his subjects into the program office, put a piece of copypaper into
a battered typewriter and leaned back in his chair with: "Well, boys, what
shall we talk about?" Detroit sports writers had besieged Wismer all day
with queries concerning the possibility of "something hot" coming out when
the unofficial representatives of three not-too-friendly athletic boards got
together around a microphone. But they were disappointed. The program
was planned and went off as a friendly, informal chat about things far
divorced from the ticklish issues that might have been considered. Wismer
handled the situation in the manner of a true diplomat, and three young
men whose unfriendly remarks could have carried enough weight to put
their schools on the spot came away hoping their friendly attitude may
have carried enough weight to ease some decidedly strained relations.

In This Corner-Prayes ...
IT WILL BE MICHIGAN against the field all the way. From the time
Co-Capt. Frank Barnard eases into the pool at 10 this morning to battle
Dex Woodford of Ohio State for the 1,500-meter free-style title until husky
Bob Mowerson thumbs his nose at "the little old man with the hammer"
and anchors Michigan a victory over Yale in the sprint relay late tomorrow
night, Mike Peppe of Ohio State and the venerable Bob Kiputh of Yale
will be hoping and praying for some unknowns to cut into Michigan's points
to such an extent that the Wolverines will not come home with their fourth
consecutive National Collegiate swimming title. But I fear for their hopes.
Matt Mann has gathered together much too much balanced power to be
affected by any number of minor setbacks. The certain point winners
on the Varsity squad are there in such numbers as to insure Michigan its
eighth national championship in 11 years.
Out On A Limb Again .,..
THE GREAT POSSIBILITY of good performances by "unknown" and
"supreme efforts" that come of the inspiration of a big nieet make
the task of predicting point winners in the National Collegiate champion-
ships no easy task, but I will venture as far as to prognosticate on the efforts
of the Michigan team. In my opinion the Wolverines will win the meet
with approximately 74 points collected in the following manner:
Co-Capt. Frank Barnard will start things off with a first place and
six points in the 1,500 meters. Ben Grady will take second in both diving
events for eight points. Tom Haynie will bring in 12 more with wins in
the 220- and 440-yard free-style races. Jack Kasley is good for a half-
dozen counters as he wins the 200-yard breast-stroke for the third straight
year, and Fred Cody will pick up a point swimming 150 yards on his back.
Ed Kirar and Walt Tomski will finish one-three in the 50 for nine tallies, and
Kirar, Bob Mowerson and Tomski will be good for a dozen more with first,
second and fourth in the century. The sprint, and medley teams will bring
in 10 points each in the relay events to wind up the scoring.
To A Coleague...
JOHN MOONEY of The Daily Iowan who takes me to task in no mean
proportions for "hitting Ray Walters when he was down," let me say
that I was writing what I consider a truism. I was not gloating nor was
I voicing merely my own opinion in saying that Walters was through as far
as winning championships in National and Big Ten competition. I was
at the Conference meet and discussed the situation with persons who have
forgotten far more swimming than you and I know or ever will know. Walters
impressed me as taking his defeats like a true champion, but is that a reason
why I should not voice what authorities consider a truth? Maybe Ray will
come back today and tomorrow. If he does, more power to him. But there
is no reason why I should refrain from voicing opinions that have something
back of them. Too much mere sympathy has no place in the sports woitd.
Incidentally, ask your coach about judges having precedence over timers-
and why they do have it.
