Michigan looked good and bad. I. liked the fortitude of 160 pound Stod- den as he stuck out his chin and be- gan chewing "away with 195 pounda Mariucci. I liked the way Les Hill- berg got into the spirit of the evening and dumped the Eveleth star into the boards. There were times when Evy Doran, Al Chadwick and George ,Cooke showed an admirable single- ness of purpose. For Spike James I have only unreserved praise. His job as human target number wie is as thankless as it was beautifully ex- ecuted. Back to the Armstrong-Ga- lento example. My shekels would be' right on Tony's flattened beezer, but I wouldn't miss the scrap under any circumstances. You see, Henry is the type of lad who abandons discretion inside of the ropes, and I imagine he could give the Joisey City guziler some mighty uncomfortable moments. I know he wouldn't pull any punches whether defeat was star- ing him in the face or not. This may sound like a lot of una- dulterated hokum to most of you, but I trust that the representatives of Mr. Lowrey get what I'm driving at. No one ever laughed at a loser that went down fighting. Lowrey ears Over Yearlings Squad Is Reduced To 15; First Line Impresses "That freshman hockey line is bet- ter than the varsity second line right now," Coach Eddie, Lowrey exclaimed after watching the frosh work out for 25 minutes last night against those boys who are already wearing the maize and blue colors. The yearling line which rated such' a high compliment is composed of Dick Taylor, right wing; Paul (Big Boy) Goldsmith, center; and bespec- tacled Cliff Dance, left wing. Prior to last night this aggregation had worked out as a unit for the first time at Wednesday's practice and, that was for only 10 minutes. AllI told it only took these future Michi-, gan pucksters 35 minutes to estab- lish themselves as one of the most[ promising lines ever to report to! Coach Lowrey. After trimming the tryouts down to 15 last night, Coach Lowrey named three more players, in addition to this line which is the answer to a coach's prayer, who have clinched berths on the 1939 freshman squad: Fitch Tillotson, an Ann Arbor boy, left wing; Warren King, right de- fense; and Bob Collins, left defense. In an hours scrimmage last night followin? the- clash with the varsity second stringers, the first line burned in three goals, one with the aid of Coach Lowrey, and Collins turned in an outstanding job on the defense, Michigan Pulls To Tie 300-Yd.

Miles In First Semester Michigan students and followers might well ask "Where, oh where, are our wandering boys tonight?", for the Wolverine athletes figure to roam some 12,000 miles ere the curtain rings down on the first semester. . The football team started the boys} rolling by tacking up 3500 miles, as they traveled to Yale, Minnesota, and Ohio State. The basketball team quickly overtook the gridders by me-' andering 3000 miles during Christ- mas vacation and over 500 since then. With Iowa and the Buckeyes yet to be met, the cagers will run their total to about 5000 miles. Coach Eddie Lowrey's pucksters turned in 6,000,000 feet in riding to wallop Western Reserve and Illinois, and will number another 300 miles as they venture forth to do battle with Western Ontario. The 1500 miles add- ed in dueling Penn State and the Nev York A.C. drives the wrestlers' stock of miles up to more than 2000, the other 500 or more multiples of 5280, feet coining during the Ceitial Q.A.U. meet in Chicago.
