BRUCE HILKENE, soph-
omore end of the Wolver-
ine football team was
selected captain for the
1945 season at the team's
annual banquet held Tues-
day. The title of "Most
Valuable Player" was
awarded to Don Lund.
Fritz Crisler, Wolverine
mentor, served as the main
speaker of the day, and he
lauded this year's squad,
which won eight out of
their scheduled ten en-
counters, as "one of the
greatest teams that I have
ever been associated with,"
and he hit a high point
when he stated that, "I
have never seen a more gal-
lant fight by any football
team than that shown on
the field at Columbus last
Saturday by this team."

Lowrey as hockey mentor

Crisler. Heyliger, for-
