4 - Navy'Transfers 'Chief' Jennings to Assist in PEiIIat Dartmouth Chief Petty Officer George Jen- nings is no longer at Michigan. If you have missed this tall, blond- haired chap who last summer the Navy loaned to the University to su- pervise calisthenics and in general help get the proposed PEM program on its feet-if you have missed him- it is advised that you switch colleges. The "Chief," as he was commonly known, has been sent to Dartmouth. When everyone on campus was so excited thinking about whether Mich- igan could whip Notre Dame, Jen- nings had some matters of his own to get excited about as he received notice that he had been commissioned to the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade A.V.P. and that new work was awaiting him. Accordingly, he left campus as quietly as he had come, and is now in Hanover, N. H., teach-. ing Dartmouth's all-male student body how to properly execute the "jumping jack," the "twister," the "windmill," and other similar drills. Incidentally, about a decade ago the "Chief" was quite a contender for the United States Davis Cup Tennis Team, but a severe knee injury de- nied him his big chance. Despite Jennings' departure, the PEM staff is performing under its usual full efficiency. The recent close of the football season has seen Coaches Wally Weber, Ernie McCoy, Art Valpey, Bill Barclay and Howard Leibee devote their talents to PEM classes in the afternoon as well as in the morning. They will be joined shortly by Coaches Earl T. Martineau and Clarence L. Munn. During the last week a new experi- ment has been introduced into the PEM sections. This experiment con- sists of dividing each of the several class platoons into two teams known as the Maize and the Blue. TheseI teams compete against one another in the various activities, the object being to foster teamwork and com- petitive spirit.

The game should be the tipoff to the entire season. If the Wolverines can get past the hard charging Can- adians they'll have a good chance of coming up with their first winning season since 1939. But a loss would present them with the unhappy pos- sibility of winding up with a record as disastrous as last year's, unless they improve greatly before playing their other Canadian and Big Ten opponents.." London -Team Tough The London squad has always spelled trouble for the Maize and Blue. Coming from a place where babies are practically born with hockey sticks in their hands, they us- ually present an aggregation of hard, fast skaters ad cagey, experienced players. They rate near the top in amateur hockey in Canada and prove tough opponents for Illinois and Min- nesota, as well as Michigan. The Wolverines haven't beaten the Canadians in four years. The visitors started a four game winning streak over the Varsity with a 5-3 victory in.1938,~then went on to win 3-1 in 1939; 7-5 in 1940, and handed the Maize and Blue the worst drubbing in the series last year, 6-1. The latter was a completely lopsided affair, the London sextet outclassing the Wol- verines by a sizeable margin. Most of the London.players who took part in that rout .will be back this year. Defense Starters Uncertain The defense will be Michigan's big question mark. Bob Derleth and Bob Stenberg the probable starters lack the polish of experienced defensemen, but make up for this by their enthus- iasm and ability to make themselves felt by opposing players. Fred Bryan, another hard, fierce checker who'll alternate with Stenberg and Derleth, also likes to play the "knock down drag 'em out" brand of hockey. If they can keep the London for- wards at a safe distance from the goal most of the time and live up to advance expectations, Michigan's hockey stock will take a sudden zoom. Coach Eddie Lowrey plans to start Bob Opland at center; Bob Kemp and either Bill Dance or Roy Bradley at the wings; Bob Derleth and Bob Stenberg at defense; and Hank Loud at goal. Frosh Qualify 7 in Class Trials Opening trials in the University interclass meet this afternoon at Yost Field House saw Bill Osgood, a sophomore, lead 12 qualifiers in the running broad jump with a leap of 21 ft., 11/2 in., to beat his nearest competitor, Bob Gardener, a fresh- man, by two inches. The frosh squad, bearing out ad- vance predictions, qualified seven men, the seniors and juniors two apiece and the sophomores one. Ap- proximately 20 distance runners who are competing in ROTC maneuvers this afternoon, qualified in the dis- tances. More than 200 trackmen will par- ticipate in this afternoon's trials to qualify for the final meet next Satur- day. Highlight of the meet today will be the pole vaulting battle between sophomore Keith Chapman, senior Bob Segula and junior Frank Mac- Clear. Qualifiers in the running board jump in the order they placed in to- day's trials are: Osgood, sophomore; Gardener, freshman; Bob Tillson, senior; Bob Howison, freshman; Jim Pierce, freshman; Bill Dale, fresh- man; Moose McNaughton, freshman; Bob Urbanek, junior; Joe Fischer, freshman; Jason Sacks, sophomore; John Pilkington, freshman, and Chuck Donahey, senior. Directed by SERGE, KOUSSEVITZKY 110- PLAYERS -110 By BOB SHOPOFF Reports from the Yost Field House have it that Coach Bennie Ooster- baan has material on hand for one of the best quintets that has worn the Maize and Blue colors in recent years. The combination of six re- turning lettermen and an outstand- ing group of sophomores is very likely to make these reports a reality. -Monday the Wolverine squad will get its first test as they open the season with their friendly foes from East Lansing, Michigan State's Spar- tans. All week long Coach Oosterbaan has sent the squad through one hour of fundamentals and finished up the drills with an hour of rough and tum- ble scrimmages. From these 'prac- ,/he BENCHCOMBE R By BUD HENDE. Daily Sports Editor A CTION, the proverbs tell us, brings results. Hockey, the rabid puck fan will jump to relate, signi- fies action. Which means that a hockey team should bring some satis- factory results, if you use no princi- ple of logic in arriving at your con- clusions. And that takes us to tonight's ice clash between Michigan and London,sOnt., the lid-lifter of the Wolverine winter sports season. Tonight will be the start of a. new slate for the Maize and Blue sextet. Many pages have been torn off the calendar since the Wolverines as much as broke even in the won and lost columns, and tonight they'll give the first indication of what to expect this year. The London aggregation, of course, must rule as a heavy favor- ite. 'It is a team composed of men who were practically teethed on a hockey stick. They're good skaters' and hard checkers, and a Michigan defeat would not come as a great surprise. Two of the 14 Wolverine losses last year came at the hands of this London crew. BUT, FRANKLY, it will be a disap- pointment to all if the Michigan puckmen do not improve their record of last year-two victories, two ties and 14 defeats. That is not in keep- ing with the standards of Michigan teams in any sport. So tonight the hockey team starts a long, hard pull. The players and especially their coach, Eddie Low- rey, are on the spot. When a team loses consistently, it's always the coach who must bear the brunt of the criticism. Lowrey has been cri- ticized freely this past year by par- tisan Wolverine observers. It's not for us to say if these criticisms are just, but we will say that Lowrey is sitting on a keg of dynamite. Michigan wants a winning hockey team, and Michigan will support a winning team. There is no doubt in any mind that Lowrey desires vic- tories even more than hiscritics do.- And we have no doubt that his team will fight with all of its ability to provide those victories this season. We are sure that if the puckmen do suffer another disastrous campaign, it will not be because they do not have the spirit. DRIFTWOOD AND SPLINTERS: The University of Iowa has something new in the way of hard- ening men to the water . . . it's a water obstacle race, and it's a man killer to all but the best conditioned of men. The participants dive into the wa- ter fully clothed, swim 50 feet and then climb up a ten-foot rope, which is no easy task with wet hands ... then they fall back into the water and swim under and through rafts . after making the turn, they crawl through barrels at the bottom of the pool ... and they complete the course by picking up ten-pound sacks of sand and carrying them to the finish line . .. we'd hate to try that Iowan maneuver in our bathtub. Quintet Faces Spartans in First Game Monday 4 Handball Tourna nent -Pposed 4,' oirpoel tices some fine basketball material has appeared. One-thing is definite. That is that some new faces will be seen in the Michigan lineup when it takes the floor Monday. Captain Jim Mandler is certain to be at his center post for the :opening whistle, but the other four positions are as yet undeter- mined. Bidding strong to retain his position at guard is Leo Doyle, stellar defenseman of the Wolverines during the 1941-42 season. No one is likely to oust Doyle from his starting berth. Guard Spot Still Open The other guard position is a scramble between Bill MfacConna- chie, big Mel Comin, Morrie Bikoff, diminutive speedster, Don Lund and Dave Strack, sophomore star from Indiana. Strack is a classy ball han- dler who has plenty of pep and fire. This may give him the nod. At the forwards Ralph Gibert is favored to hold his position which he played on last year's team until be- coming ineligible. Gibert has height, which makes him a scrapper for the balls off the' backboard. Others in the race for the second forward spot are Wally Spreen, a reserve from last year, Bob Wiese, who is showing the drive that won him a spot on the grid team, and soph Harold Ander- son. Anderson has looked best dur- ing the practices,.but Wiese has also been hitting the basket at a good 'average. The gtrio of: speed, height and - a scoring, punch should give Michigan a first-class five this season. They are a fast-charging bunch that aver- ages over six feet tall.
