With ceiling and visibility practi-

the Varsity gridders hurried through l
the last strengous drill of the season i

out will be light and short.

When Douglas Alexander Farmer, T

spare time the other day, he looked t
rather blank. This is perfectly un-ft

possible by combining athletics, poli- p
tics and a pre-med course, which is R

when you add the fact that he's aa

the game with Minnesota was the
oughest this year, and calls Sollie
Sherman and Lou Hamity of the
Maroon backfield the two scrappiest
layers he's noticed playing against
Michigan this year. And Johnny

while he names Clint Frank as his

only to have the Spartans pull the
same trick three times to the great
disappointment of all.
For recreation, he goes in for sports
in a big way, combining sailing
(which he likes to do best on a lake
in Northern Ontario), skating, tennis
and golf. But the only mention he'd
make of his score in the latter was
to flatly state that "it was deplor-
able."
Yes, playing football does interfere
with studying he admitted, but just
the same he names physics, organic
chemistry, Victorian literature and
fine arts as his favorite courses on
campus, which shows he really knows
what the term "studying" signifies.

famous passes: He grips the ball
firmly, near the end, and doesn't
merely let it lie in the palm of his
hand. He throws it with a distinct
snap of the wrist-the same sort of
last-minute wrist action which makes
a great batter or golfer. He can pitch

Rinaldi Heads List
Heading the list of senors is Cap-
tain Joe Rinaldi who will give wayj
to Archie Kodros in the starting'
lineup but will undoubtedly see a
good deal of action before the tra-
ditional Buckeye battle becomes his- a
tory. Joe, an Elkhart, Ind., product,'
succeeded his fellow townsman Matt<
Patanelli, as leader of the Wolver-!
ines this year and has been alter-
nating with Kodros, barrel-chested
sophomore, at the pivot position. 1
Stark Ritchie, Michigan's latest
hero, will attempt to wind up his
career in a blaze of glory and is
scheduled to lead the attack against?

cago and Pennsylvania games. I
