If the Wolverines hurdle Coach Paul Bown's Buckeyes, and we have cery reason to believe that they ll, it will be Crisler's first taste of a dig Ten title since coming to Ann Arbor. There is a strong pos- sibility that Indiana may upset Pur- due to give Michigan undisputed possession of a tie. Wateh State's Freshmen Interest will be largely centered on Brown's two sensational freshman starts, Ernie Parks and Dean Sen- sanbaugher. Parks, a state sprint champion, and Sensanbaugher have gained most of Ohio's yardage this yar and have performed consis- tently all season. Itappears almost definite that i4 ,ganwill play without Elroy (Crvzy Legs) Hirsch, regular left halfback whose shoulder injury is still too painful for close contact work. Hirsch limbered up on the side lines yesterday, but did not take part in the drill.

Statistics Say Michigan Tops Big Ten Teams Michigan stood out as the most outstanding team in the Big Ten Conference according to statistics of its five games with Midwest foes. The Wolverines have piled up 162 points to 144 for Purdue, its closest rival, and have held the opposition to 25 points as compared to North- western's defense record of 33 tallies. Lead in Rushing Coach Fritz Crisler's Maize and Blue eleven has rolled up 344 net yards per game to 321 for Purdue, and have held five foes to 130 net yards per game as compared to the Boilermakers' 161-yard record. Purdue's former backfield ace who is now on active duty, Tony Butko- vich, still leads Conference scorers with 78 points in four games, while Otto Graham, Northwestern, is pres- sing Michigan's Elroy Hirsch for runner-up spot. Hirsch has 43 points and Graham 41. Bray Tops in Yardage Eddie Bray, Illinois' speedy fresh- man back, has the best rushing mark with an average of 7.5 yards per try out of a total of 506 yards in five games. Michigan's Bill Daley was next with 7.1 yards. Graham edged out Hunchy Hoern- schemeyer of Indiana for passing honors. The Wildcat back has 22 completions in 45 tosses for a .489 percentage, while Hunchy has com- pleted 35 in 82 tosses for .426. By BO BOWMAN Don Lund, called "Smoky" by his friends, seems destined to become one of the few Michigan men to re- ceive nine athletic awards. The big, blond Norwegian hails from Southeastern High School in Detroit. While in high school Don played three years each of football basketball and baseball. He holds all-state and all-city laurels in prep school. Loves Swing Music Don isn't only an athlete as he was president of his senior class in high school and is a member of the Sphinx, Junior Honorary Society at Michigan. Besides, a novelty among athletes, Lund is an ardent lover of dancing and swing music. During the summer months he haunted the night spots where popular orchestras gave out with swing and jive. When Don graduated from high school-he was uncertain as to what college to attend. Since he was an excellent athlete many schools of- fered him scholarships. Since he was a Detroit boy and always under the influence of the Maize and Blue, Michigan became his choice. Early in his high school career, Don had decided that his future lay in coaching. As perparation for a coaching future Don entered the University Physical Education School, his present major. Although not a scholar, his class work is above average. All-Around Athlete Don's career at Michigan in ath- letics has been a year-around con- tribution to Wolverine success. In the fall his running and great de- fensive play on the gridiron have brought acclaim from everyone. Al- though play4ng with a mediocre bas- ketball team last winter, he per- formed well. Playing on Coach Ray Fisher's baseball team last spring, Don did a capable job in center- field and was one of the team's lead- ing hitters. Being draft deferred because of a knee ailment which he has had since birth has been quite a blow to this 198-pound giant. Lund, like a true soldier, has borne his wartime defeat with the same courage he shows on the gridiron every Satur- day during the fall. Major Leaguers Hit NEW YORK, Nov. 18.-(A)-Com- missioner K. M. Landis has put the finger on. several major leaguers for playing winter ball in California, and in so doing he only is carrying out the duties of his office, so any criticism of the incident should be aimed elsewhere.

Army Navy To Select Cage T'eams By JOAN LINDSAY An All-Star Navy V-12 basketball team will play an All-Star Army team for the Servicemen's championship Dec. 17. The contest will highlight the in- tramural programs which are being conducted by the Army and the Navy. Only men who have competed in the Friday night inter-company play will be eligible for selection on the All- Star squads. No Navy men who play on the Varsity squad are eligible. The Navy team will be composed of the outstanding players from its bas- ketball, leagues. Men will be chosen onth .i of teraityTh players will be announced about one week before the All-Star game. How ,the Army team will be selec- ted has not been announced yet. How- ever, the team will either be one com- plete company team or a team chosen from all the companies. Besides the feature event four box- ing bouts will also be going on that night. Plans to put on tournaments. in wrestling, and .track events, which are also on the intramural program, are underway. The Navy band will provide the music for this all-campus service- men's night. This event, which prom- ises to be one of the leading sporting events of the indoor season, is open to the general public. All arrangements are being made by Lt. (j.g.) G. J. Jennings, USNR, athletic officer of the V-12 unit, and Major Warner, executive officer of the Army units stationed here, in cooperation with the University of Michigan Athletic Department. Major Warner is assisted by Lt. Garrick who is in charge of general details for the intramural program. Lt. Johnson, who is in charge of the officials for the intramural games, and Lt. Reizman, who schedules the games, also are working with Major Warner. Chief Specialists (A) Kawal, Hughes, Kotlow, Horner, McAfee, Lassila, Coleman, Woomer, Aiken, Loftin, Nash, Mazzie and Ross, and Marine Sergeants Rubin, Hornbrook and Corporal Atkins are working with Lt. Jennings. They direct bas- ketball, track, wrestling, boxing, gym- nastics and hockey, which are on the regular intramural program.

In Anan Arbor 'ARROW' R at State Street on the Campus By JIM LEWY Although war and graduation robbed Michigan of many of its 1942- 4 swimming stars, Coach Matt Mann appeared satisfied with the develop- ment of his current squad which he hopes "will keep up the reputation of teams of the past." Four lettermen who have returned to form the nucleus of his squad, have been working out for nearly a month together with team candidates from the service forces and other civilian tryouts. The returning lettermen are John McCarthy, Chuck Fries, Ace Cory, and Mert Church. Opinions around the Wolverine camp indicate that the team will carry on the Michigan traditions as long as there is no interference with activities of the armed forces here. As per custom, thei swimming de- partment will stage a swimming car- nival in January. Teams composed of Army and Navy men are being formed to swim competitively against one another as well as against other opponents. A dual meet, bringing these two rivals together, will high- light the end of the swimming season. Though most of the college teams throughout the country are training vigorously for the swimming meets that are to follow, a note of scepti- cism has been raised concerning the number of - likely opponents that Michigan will face this year. Because of the transportation difficulties, the teams will not be able to travel about the country this year as in previous times and thus, the number of meets might be diminished. At any rate, the Wolverine squad will have to face opponents from the nearby schools. Mich.-Ohio State Notre Dame-Iowa Cadets Northwestern-Ill. Purdue-Indiana Minn.-Wis. G.

If you're forever getting out the needle and thread, here are some tips: When a button comes off, sew it on well the first time. A slip-shod job just means you'll have to do it over again soon. Make your next shirt an Arrow. Arrow but- tons are attached with a patented stitch, which "anchors" them to a shirt. Check your size-you may be wearing too small a shirt and therefore causing too great a strain on the buttons and seams. The Sanforized label in an Arrow shirt guarantees shrinkage no greater than 1%-no danger of an Arrow ever getting too small!

Luke Johnsos of the Bears, says that back in 1929, Grange was play- ing left halfback for the Bears and Carl Brumbaugh was at quarter. The Bears were having some success with a quick opening play in which Grange faked to his right. But the redhead finally tired of rushing to his right on every play and finally took an unannounced excursion to his left. When he re- turned to the huddle he told Brum- baugh "Nobody covered me at all." So Grange repeated his adventure with Brumbaugh tossing him a pass that was good for 20 yards. The play has been a fundamental of T-minded elevens ever since. HARLES and Walter Brown, identical twins from Westfield, N. J., took especial delight in batter- ing each other in last Saturday's Yale - Princeton football game. Charles, Princeton's roving center, hurried back to help brother Walter, Yale end, rise after one of their collisions. Later Charles told his Princeton mates in the huddle "I only picked him up so that I could knock him down again." * *. * THE 1943, season will be remem- bered a long time for its many war-born oddities. And the best of them, in our book, is that Southern California was named to the Rose Bowl less than 24 hours after taking a 35 to 5 shellacking from March Field.
