Guts...,
N THE YEARS soon after the Civil
War, one Stephen Crane wrote a
book entitled "The Red Badge of
Courage." From what we hear it was
a good book. We wouldn't know, hav-
ing never read it. The only reason
for bringing it up is that it suggests,
in a nice literary style, the ability to
overcome odds, to give all that you
have, and to come up ready to take
'em on again. The same ability is
sometimes expressed by that short,
thudding noun "Guts."
To say that an athlete has
"Guts" is to pin on him the Red
Badge of Courage. We hereby
pin it on Dye Hogan. Charlie
IIoyt's fine half mdler. Dye Ho-
gan is not the greatest 880 man
that ever carried the Maize and
Blue. He isn't the best hal'-
miler that runs for Miyhigan this
year. He is a good runner though,
who is a good runner in spite of
having what is referred to by
medicos as a wry neck. In other
words his head is cocked over
until it almost touches his right
shoulder.
Hogan was born with his handi-
cap. One tendon is missing from his
neck and the other is not strong
enough to hold his head upright. An
operation at one time might have
straightened his head up - or it
might have left him in a cast for
the rest of his life. "My mother gave
me my choice," says Dye. "I just said
'Aw, to hel with it. I'll get along
O.K." He has.
In Hornell, New York, where he
hails from, Dye was regional 880
champion for two years and his
record of two minutes flat still
stands as does his 2:01 county
mark. He also played football and
was President of his class fort
two years.d
In his freshman year here Hogan
ran just a step behind his teammate
Tommie Jester when the latter gal-
loped to a new yearling outdoor rec-
ord in 1:56. In his first Varsity start
against State his bid to move out of
the pack was stymied when a State
man cut into him.
In (he Ohio State meet his job
was to be "sucker man." lie was
to get out in front and step up
the pace in an attempt to pull
out and tire Dick Squire of the
Bucks so Michigan's top runners,
Buchanan and Jester could gain
a place.
Squire didn't sucker. He was too
old a hand. But Hogan almost fooled
the field. Only in the last 20 paces
did his blistering pace fade.
In the Illinois Relays he ran a
brilliant leg on the Wolverine two=
mile relay foursome. A bad break
in the baton pass gave the race to
Indiana. Last week at Butler no bad
break occurred but the stick came to
Hogan 17 yards behind Cunkle of the
Hoosiers. Dye made them up and his
mates did the rest. Michigan won
and Dye gets his "M"-and with it
"The Rod Badge of Courage."

While observing baseball prac-
tice the other day, Coach Fritz
Crisler took a fancy to a husky
lad engaged in a pepper game.
Probably struck by the fellow's
sturdy chassis, a type which
makes fine grid material, the new
football coach inquired as to his
identity.
"That's Forest Evashvski," some-
one volunteered. And Crisler must
have smiled if he still remembered
the names of his likelier boys this
fall. For "Evie," caused considerable
physical anguish to Varsity gridders
in Frosh-Varsity contacts last fall,
will be a promising center candidate
when the leaves crinkle and swirl,
Notice by the sheets that Long
John Gee's height is still the bane
of his existence. As a Wolverine, John
was constantly chided because of his
six feet, nine inches. And wherever
the opponents had an exceptionally
short man, John was invariably called
upon to pose with him, often with
arms outstretched over the mite's
head. It annoyed the long fellow,
plenty, since he was slightly sensi-
tive about his size. Now, as a pro-
fessional ballplayer, with Syracuse
of the International loop, he's still the
target of every photog "bomb." And
the little man is always present . . .

Tomski anchored the Michigan

what may be the deciding 400 yard

Captain Ed Kirar equalled the
meet record and broke the pool
record when he churned through
to win his heat in the time trials
of the National Collegiate swim
meet in 23 seconds flat. He later
went on to win the event in the
finals.

RAY FISHER
Michigan Baseball Coach
BASEBALL MARATHON ...
"My second year here we were play-
ing Wisconsin in a neck and neck
battle. At the end of nine innings
the score stood five all, and so it
stayed as the tenth, eleventh, twelfth,
thirteenth and fourteenth flew by.
"In their half of the fifteenth,
the Badgers came to life and
pushed a run across on two clean
hits. It looked bad as we came
in for our turn at bat, and our
first two batsmen went down
casily. Then Pete Van Boven
came up to bat. He was a pretty
fair hitter, but our chances
looked slim.
"Pete stepped into the first pitch
and eracked a hard liner over second
base. Too bad, I thought for it looked
like an easy outfield catch. Turning
to leave the dugout I glanced out
toward center field. I thought my eyes
had failed me, for the ball was still
sailing on a. dead line far over the
center fielders head for a home run.
Tie score, and we were back in the
ball game.
"The long grind eontinUed with
neither side giving an inch until
the eighteenth inning. We paired
two hits then for a run and an
earned 7-6 win. Not only was
that ball game a marathon, but
it had us: on the end of our seats
all the way."
Yankee Dark Horse
Wins Steeplechase
AINTREE, Eng., March 25.-(A)-
Running on his heart with a 17-year
old kid on his back, Battleship today
won an heroic "All-America" victory
in the 100th Grand National Steeple-
chase to take a place alongside War
Admiral as a worthy son of the
mighty Man O' War.
They said he'd sink in Becher's
Brook. They said he was a pony
out of his class. They started him
at 40-1. Yet he carried the rose and
silver colors of Mrs. Mario Dupont
Scott of Montl.elier, Va., wife of the
screen actor, Randolph Scott, near
the front all the way.
He stepped into command the sec-
ond time over Becher's Brook, slipped
back and then came on again. He
was beaten at the last fence by a half-
length but he answered the whip and
won by a head from H. C. McNally's
Royal Danieli, an 18 to 1 shot. Sir
Alex MacGuire's Workman was far
back for third place in the field of

Notre Dame Is IIsied
On 938-39 Cige C(ard
Michugan will continue its renewed
relations with Notre Dame next win-
ter. A basketball game between the
two institutions will be played Dec. 15
at Notre Dame, it was announced to-
day. They have not met in basket-
ball since 1923. Eight non-confer-
ence games are listed, including two,
with Michigan State.
The non-conference schedule: Dec.
10-Michigan State; Dec. 15-Notre
Dame at South Bend; Dec. 17-Ro-
chester at Rochester; Dec. 19---Syra-
cuse at White Plains, N.Y.; -Dec. 22
-Cornell at White Plains, N.Y.; Dec.
30-Butler at Indianapolis; Jan. 2-
Toledo at Toledo; Feb. 11-Michigan
State at East Lansing.
E L._
Each of the men is fully at home
on any of the apparatus and can real-
ly swing out in his own special field.
The most promising man on the
team is Ted Eunson, a freshman who,
cording to Townley, which means
more natural ability than any per-
former he has ever seen.
Along with Mansfield and Eunson
in stealing the show is Joe Cole,
whole giant swings and somersaults
in mid-air have brought that funny
feeling to the stomachs of all who
have seen him.
Sqmuad of 35
Not only are there six very good
men at t he top of the team, there
are thiirty-five others who work out
every day trying to get a chance at
the exhibition. This gives gymnas-
tics a squad as large as many of the
minor sports on the campus have.
The one goal that all of these men
are striving for s a chance to get
back into competition. Many of their
old rivals, especially Chicago and Il-
linois still have teams that they
would like to meet again.
Along with these two Big Ten
teams are the Detroit ceams and a
strong one from Western Reserve.
. With a promise of gord teams
in the next few years and a return
of interest in the sport these men may
have a chance to really show in com-
petition what they can do.
