Tr4FT .: Qs IW' 4, 1941. TT Iii i I C II G ANS 3Aii-4 PA F 'TI E Coach Oosterbaan Awards Varsity Letters To Ten Cagers _ Sofiak, Brogan Receive Honor For Third Time Seven Seniors Are Listed' For 1940-41 Activities- Squad To Elect Captain Ten members of the Michigan bas- ketball team that wound up its season in seventh place in the Big Ten Con- ference r'ace were awarded varsityj letters for their 1940-41 activities, Coach Bennie Oosterbaan announced yesterday afternoon. The list of letter-winners includes:C Captain Herb Brogan, Lansing; Bill Cartmill, Verona, N.J.; Mel Comin, Chicago; Leo Doyle, Pequaming; Joe Glasser, Enid, Okla.; Bill Herrman, Detroit; Jim Mandler, Chicago; George Ruehle, Detroit; Mike Sofiak, Gary, Ind.; and Hal Westerman, Ann Arbor. Another member of the Wolverine squad, Bill Houle of Bellevue, Ohio, received a secondary award. For Brogan and Sofiak, the two tiniest members of the Michigan cage squad, it marked the third time in their careers that the pair had been so honored. Cartmill, Glasser and Ruehleaalso won their varsity 'M' last year. Seven of the ten recipients of the varsity insignia are seniors, thus leaving Oosterbaan with only Jim Mandler, Met Comm and Leo Doyle as letterwinning holdovers for next year's quintet. However, the probable return of Bob Fitzgerald and Jim Grissen, both of whom won letters last year but were lost to the team this season through sickness and in- eligibility, makes the outlook for the future more promising. The new crop of lettermen will meet today to elect the captain for next season.

This has long been com- mon knowledge but it was conclusive- ly proved Saturday. The little de- fenseman succeeded in breaking up no less than 16 Gopher scoring thrusts during the course of the game. Right behind Stodden came husky John Gillis who was credited with 11 play-breaks. This makes a total of 27 foi the two Michigan defense- men, three more than the entire Min- nesota team made, indicating that the visitors started a lot more plays than did the Wolverines. The Twin Cities club also took many more shots than did the locals, firing 43 times to Michigan's 28. Eight of the Minnesota shots were wide of the net, 33 were cleared by Goalie Hank Loud and two of them hit the cords. Of Michigan's 28 shots, only 18 were accurate and 17 of them were stopped by Burt Joseph, the Gopher net-minder. Ross Makes Six Leading individual shot-makers were Capt. Harold (Babe) Paulsen for Minnesota with 10 and Capt. Charley Ross for Michigan with 6. Paulsen scored once while Ross failed to dent the laces at all. Fred Junger, who scored the other Gopher tally, tried seven times. The best average went to Bob Collins who scored Michigan's only goal. Col- lins shot but three times, connecting once, for percentage of .333,. Maybe this information is of in- terest to the reader. We found it so.
