THE ~MICHIGTAN DAILYV SUNDAY, I 1 Ll L 1 l 4111 V f"13\ L R 1, L1 t Wolverine Gridders Consider Entering Pro Ranks Next Year Football Ends Vie For Cage Berths By HERM EPSTEIN For the first time since Harry New- man started to play for dollars in- stead of letters, Michigan seems likely to have at least one representa- tive in the professional football ranks next fall. While most of the seniors on this year's varsity disclaim any intention of joining the "dough-boys," there are three who may try to make the grade. Don Siegel, Jack Brennan, and'Louie Levine have indicated an interest in capitalizing on their tal- ents, and all three have been ap- proached by at least one professional team. Approached By Giants The New York Giants, who sent in- quiries to Siegel, Brennan and Levine, have also sent out a feeler to Danny Smick, but the big nine-letter athlete says he won't consider any offer, pre- Do Your Christmas Shopping Early at Burr Patterson Auld Co.

All-American Ralph Heikkinen and Norm Purucker intend to stay out of the professional game, but admit that the lure of the game, plus a very attractive offer, may induce them to change their minds. "Hike" is re- ported tohhave received offers from four teams already, and the compe- tition for his services may raise the offers to a point at which he will have to think twice before refusing. Purucker Is Undecit~ed Purucker, the "Michigan Madcap," has his own plans, but he likes to play so much that for a sufficient re- turn he will get back into the game. and take afling at the money-play- ers. Capt. Fred Janke, Wally Hook, and Elmer Gedeon have hung up their, togs for good to retire to the ob- scurity of being just students. Janke will continue his petroleum engineer- ing work, while Gedeon, like Smick, I may try his hand at pro baseball.' Hook expects to go into business. With five boys admittedly attract- ed, it is extremely probable that the 1939 football season will find a couple of Wolverines playing for their food -and a little gravy, too.1 Unknown Leads Golfers AUGUSTA, Ga., Dec. 3-()P)-Leo Walper hung up a nifty 69 today to go with yesterday's 67 to keep out in front of a fast field in the $5,000 Augusta Open golf tournament. SMICK NICHOLSON Danny Smick and John Nicholson, veteran ends on Michigan's football, team, have reported to Coach Bennie Oosterbaan's cage squad along with four other gridders, Tom Harmon, Freddie Trosko, Milo Sukup and Paul Nielsen. Smick, a two-letterman in basketball, is a probable regu- lar, forward, while Nicholson, a reserve award winner last year, is at- tempting to gain either a center or forward job. Nick tallied fourteen, points for the reserves in yesterday's scrimmage. Varsity Sextet Meets Strong Rival Tuesday McMaster University Has Veteran-Studded Squad For Opener At Coliseum When Coach Eddie Lowrey's Wol- verine hockey team comes up against the McMaster University squad on Tuesday night at the Coliseum they will come into direct contact with a strong and very experienced hockey organization. In the goal will be Fred "Bones" Martin, who although a good six feet in height fails to tip the scales at much over 135 pounds. Herheld down the goal spot on last year's Maroon team. At the two starting defense posi- tions will be Ken McAdam, who is called McMaster's number one ath- lete, and Herb Leal, who is the Cana- dian Intermediate Intercollegiate heavyweight boxing champion. McAdam was one of the greatest half backs in inter-collegiate foot- ball and at present is on the reserve list of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Both of these defense men are well over six feet and hover around the two hundred pound mark on the scales. In the center face off spot will be Ross Martin, brother of the goalie and the fastest forward in the univers- ity. Along with this six foot center Bob Burt and Verdum Wendorf will hold down the wings. Wendorf is the smallest man on the squad but is noted in, Western Ontario for his backcheckingability and also boasts having a very strong shot. Burt has been playing on the McMaster team for the past three seasons. Before that he played for St. George and was instrumental in their winning two Ontario champion- ships. When this combination of men needs support Coach Ossie Stewart, who is having his first season with the McMaster squad, can call upon six players who although lacking the experience of the first team will be able to cause "Spike" James a lot of trouble. Last night the Wolverine team went through their last hard practice before Tuesday's curtain raiser. Mon- day Coach Lowrey will spend' the practice session in a light skating and puck shooting drill.
