Tough Opener That the Spitfires are a strong club may be testified by the fact that they copped top honors in the Ontario amateur hockey league last year and have been strengthened this year. Although the Wolverines have not yet met any amateur opposition, the Wolverines have looked especially good in practice games against pro- J-Y Turkey Run Wo ByWhie nB%- hiTeam R4uners Sparked by Herb Barten and Bob Thomason, who finished second and third behind Chuck Birdsall, the white team won the Intra-Mural tur- key run yesterday afternoon over a two and a half mile distance in the field house. The run originally was scheduled for the varsity cross country course but was moved indoors because of the inclement weather. The winning team of Thomason, Barten, Chuck Low, who finished sixth, Dick Schneider and Les Warren will be joined at tur- key dinner at the Alpha Chi Omega sorority by five other members of the team, the winner Chuck Birdsall, Archie Parsons, Joe Shea and Dave Hess, fourth and fifth place, and Lou Nail. Birdsall let Barten and Thomason set the pace in the early laps but took over the lead in the 16th to fin- ish in the timeof 13.6. fessionals and in daily scrimmage. With all indications pointing to one of the biggest games played on Coli- seum ice, Coach Vic Heyliger declines to comment on the outcome of the contest. But he promises, "The fans will see a first class battle. Michigan has not had too much experience working as a unit, but the boys cer- tainly have the ability." The Spit- fire's record speaks for itself. Practicing Hard After an extended holiday lay-off, the Wolverines resumed action this week, putting the finishing touches on their game. With only one excep- tion the squad should be at top strength for the initial encounter. That exception is Bob Marshall, key defenseman from North Bay, Ont. Marshall was back in uniform Mon- day after a week's rest at the Health Service, suffering from a sore throat. He is expected to play a good part of Saturday's game, but it is doubted if he will be in best physical shape. Michigan's defense will not be lack- ing in any event. Clem Cossalter, Connie Hill and Ross Smith are three excellent defensemen, and Ching Johnson Jr., son of the famous professional puck star, will be able to give considerable support to this trio. In the nets for the Maise and Blue will be Jack Maclnnes, a vet- eran of many years in Canadian amateur hockey circles. ArmyGridders Are Preparing For Naval Tilt WEST POINT, N.Y., Nov. 27-(/)- With only half a dozen privileged spectators looking on, Army's great football squad put on an exhibition good enough to fill any stadium in the country today as the Cadets banged through a lengthy scrim- mage for Saturday's Navy game, which definitely will be their last this year. For 45 minutes, various combina- tions on this mighty grid squad that many are calling the best of all time bumped heads in a rough and tum- ble drill which brought Army's heavy practice in preparation for the an- nual service classic to an end. But coach Earl "Red" Blaik's first team was quarterbacked by Dick Walterhouse, a second stringer whose specialty is kicking extra points, in place of Arnold Tucker, the regular field general and key man in Army's T-formation. Tucker was taken to the hospital earlier in the day with Influenza and a temperature of 102, the outgrowth of a cold. BY CHUCK LEWIS Bill Courtwright, a 165-pounder and recently returned veteran, yes- terday was elected captain of the 1945-46 wrestling team. Courtwright, who was captain- elect of the 1942-43 team before leaving for the Army, is a very welcome addition to this year's squad,. While wrestling at Michi- gan, he was runner-up two years in succession for the National Intercollegiate title, both times being defeated by Gene Smith of Oklahoma A. & M. in the champ- ionship match. His return to action considerably brightens the outlook for this season's grapplers. With the return of Courtwright and after three weeks of practice, the squad is gradually beginning to take shape. At the present time, there are 65 men vieing for positions on the team, most of whom have never wrestled before. According to Coach Cliff Keen, the prospects are learn- ing, and several are showing promise. Coach Keen also complimented. the prospective grapplers on the fine spirit that they have shown to date. Art Sachsel, who wrestled in the Banquet. (Continued from Page 1) fought and won on spirit," he said, "and the Michigan football team fought and won the same way." "Even though we lost to Army and Navy, the experience of fighting up- hill against a superior opponent was a valuable one. When these boys face the world, in the mess in which we of the older generation have left it, they will realize the value of that experi- ence. "And no one," he concluded, "who saw Michigan get off the floor last week and beat a better Ohio State team can have any concern about the future. Those boys showed the true spirit of Michigan, and of youth." Retiring team captain Joe Pon- setto, introducing Renner, praised his successor for his fine play and lead- ership during his three years on the varsity. Renner, who comes from Sturgis, Mich., rejoined the squad at mid-season after being discharged from the Marine Corps, and played a steady brand of ball the rest of the way. Bob Ufer, sports editor of station WPAG, reviewed the highlights of the 1945 football season locally and named an all-city high school eleven.

Burke officiated as toast- master. 121-pound division and the onlyt returning veteran from last year's squad, is expected to grapple at 128 pounds this season. Tom Rich- ardson and John Allred are other prospects in the 128-pound class. At 121 pounds, Jim Stark and Ber- nard Straatsma are the most promis- ing, while L. Smith, a 135-pounder, and Stu Snyder, Bob Jobson, and Pete Clemens, all are coming along Heyliger Names Macnnes New Hockey Goalie Wolverine Net-Minder Strengthens Ice Squad It is very rare indeed to find a member of a collegiate hockey team who has a record of over 10 years ex- perience in organized hockey leagues. Jack Maclnnes, 18 year old freshman from Toronto, Ontario is ene such a player. Maclnnes is the Wolverines' varsity goalie this season, and Vic Heyliger, mentor of the Michigan squad, says "He is awfully quick and fast, very cool, and he keeps in his net well." The Maize and Blue's number one goal tender went to DeLasalle High School where he captained the sextet and led the team to the Ontario Jun- ior B championship. Maclnnes, describing the high- lights of this series, said it was one of the toughest he has' ever played. In the play-offs, the winner had to take two of three games. The opening was won by DeLasalle. but it dropped the second, making it necessary to play the final game. The deciding tilt proved to be a real hockey thriller. It was a see- saw affair characterized by many colorful moments, with DeLasalle finally winning the all-important encounter by a score of 9-7. Mac- Innes incidently made 60 saves during the title clinching till which is tops in anybody's book. Holding down the same position since he became interested in hockey, MacInnes got his start in the so called "Pee Wee" group which is better known as the Minor Bantam League. He then advanced to the Junior division where he was captain of team for three consecutive year, winning the Junior Toronto title in 1943.

The three honored were Team Cap- tain Joe Ponsetto at quarterback, Harry Watts at center, and Dom Tomasi at guard. Most surprising nomination was that of Tomasi, a first-year man, but a line stalwart for the Wolverines all- season. The stubby 180-pounder from Flint won all-state high schools hon- ors last year. Ponsetto was selected for the sec- ond year in succession by the Free Press staff. Naming of Watts was no surprise as he had already been placed on The Associated Press all- Big Ten eleven and is an all-Americ- can candidate. DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN Continuous from 1 P.M.
