Physical Education Department
to Conduct Clnic Tomorrow

4:

By DON SWANINGER
Aided and abetted by the Univer-
sity's Department of Physical Educa-
tion, a Physical Fitness Institute deal-
ing with the introduction of physical
fitness programs into high schools
will be conducted on campus tomor-
row.
The purpose of this institute or
clinic, as it might be called, is to ex-
plaiig and demonstrate to visiting
high' school principals and physical
education instructors what are the
requisites of a sound body condition-
ing program, so that they may be
more able to go back to their respec-
tive schools and set up programs of
their own.
Institute Is Timely
Speaking of the institute, Dr. El-
mer D. Mitchell, Director of Intra-
mural Sports and chairman of the
program, said, "It is a part of a na-
tional plan to inject conditioning pro-
grams for both men and women into
high schools. Its immediate object-
to make for better physical education
instruction in the high schools--is
especially important because many of
the veteran physical education teach-
ers in the high schools have been as-
similated into the Army and Navy
training programs."
The institute will be divided into
two parts, one in the afternoon and
one in the evening. The afternoon
program, starting at 2:30, will take
place in the Sports Building, that in
the evening gets under way at 7:00.in
the Rackham Building Amphitheatre.
Both are open to the public.
Featuring the afternoon program

will be a swimming demonstration of
military maneuvers and safety at 3:15
under the direction of Coaches Matt
Mann and John Johnstone, a discus-
sion-demonstration of the Univer-
sity's physical fitness activities start-
ing at 4:15, and movies of the Navy's
physical hardening program at 5:00.
Naval Officer to Speak
The evening program will be head-
lined by a talk by Lieutenant Com-
mander Charles E. Forsythe of the
Navy's Bureau of Personnel, who at
8:15 will relate his experience as the'
right hand man of Lieutenant Com-
mander Gene Tunney, director of the
Navy's physical hardening program.
Colored motion pictures of the Uni-
versity of - Michigan physical condi-
tion program will be shown at 9:00.

Ann Arbor Out, Tigers
to Train in Evansville

r '
G DETROIT, Jan. 5.- (/P)- The De-
troit Tigers are negotiating to pitch
their spring training camp at Evans-
ville, Ind., General Manager Jack Zel-
ler disclosed tonight by telephone to
baseball sources here.
"We hope to complete arrange-
ments quickly so that we may go
ahead with training plans," Zeller
declared. "Evansville has a good park
and we would be some 60 miles from
French Lick Springs where the Chi-
cago Cubs and White Sox will train.
That would give us a chance to book
exhibition games."

Mat Star Is
Conference
Title-Holder
Johnson Is Named to
Replace Conrtright
for 1943 Campaign
By BOB SCHWARZKOPF
Manley Johnson, Big Ten wrestling
champion and Varsity 145-pounder,
was named to captain the 1943 Mich-
igan mat squad at a special meeting
of the team last night.
He replaces Bill Courtright who
left the squad in order to join the
Army earlier this year.
Coming from a state which is wide-
ly known for its ability to produce.
outstanding wrestlers, Johnson boasts
of an excellent high school and col-
lege record. As a student at Tulsa
Central High in Oklahoma, he cap-
tured the state high school wrestling
crown in his weight class and then
went on to Oklahoma A&M where
he was a member of the freshman
and varsity squads during his two
years there.
Enters Michigan in '41
Coming to Michigan in 1941, John-
son was ineligible for varsity compe-
tition in his first year and didn't
produce too much of a sensation
when he first took over the 145-pound
class last year.
Followers of the Maize and Blue
wrestling fortunes were suddenly sur-
prised, therefore, when in March
Johnson sailed right through the
qualifying rounds of the Big Ten
championship meet to clinch the
Wolverines' only Conference crown.
Goes to Finals
Big things were expected of the
Oklahoma youth in the National Col-;
legiates which followed the Big Ten
meet by two weeks, and Johnson
proved that he was worthy of those
expectations when he took second
place, losing in the finals to a former
high school teammate of his, Buddy
Arndt of Oklahoma A&M.l
In commendation of this record,
the Wolverine matmen held a specialI
meeting last night to name Johnson
to the captaincy of the squad in only
his second year with the Varsity1
grapplers.}

Major Leagues,
Plan to Delay
Season 8 Days
Landis Gives Decision ;
New Schedule Still
Calls for 154 Games
CHICAGO, Jan. 5.-- (P)- The ma-
jor leagues, in emergency joint ses-
sion with Commissioner Kenesaw
Mountain Landis, decided today to set
back the opening of the 1943 baseball
season eight days to April 21, but
voted to continue the playing period
one week, closing on Oct. 3.
They also drew up. a sharply-de-
fined area in which they may do their
spring training, with the understand-
ing each club " would condition at
home, or as close as possible, in the
interest of curtailed rail travel.
Boundaries Listed
Teams, they decided, must train
north of the Potomac and Ohio Riv-
ers and east of the Mississippi, with
the exception of the two St. Louis
clubs which were given the option of
using Missouri as a site. This decision
ruled out as training bases the South
Atlantic seaboard states and Hot
Springs, Ark., mentioned as possible
alternate sites after Florida and Cali-
fornia earlier were listed as "out of
bounds."
Eastman Pleased by Action,
In Washington Joseph B. Eastman,
Director of the Office of Defense
Transportation, said he was "greatly
pleased by the action which the ma-
jor leagues have taken today to re-
duce their travel requirements for the
coming season." His statement was
released here by the Office of War
Information.
Landis personally announced re-
sults of the two-hour parley. Hs said
the 154-game schedule would remain
in effect, including three east-west
trips, previously agreed upon. Since'
1936 each clubs made the cross coun-
try junket four times.
