TUESDAY, DECEBER 11, 1945 Indoor Track Season Begms On February 2 Four Meets Scheduled For Yost Field House By WALT KLEE With four of the outstanding track teams in the Midwest competing against the Wolverine cindermen in meets to be held in the Yost Field House in February and March, the 1946 Indoor Track season shapes up as being the best in years for the Michigan track fan. Commenting on the schedule, the Maize and Blue track coach, Ken Doherty, said, "It is a very good schedule and will give us a definite idea what we will have to face March 9th in Chicago in the Conference In- door Championships." Three-Way Meet to Open Season The Purdue and Ohio State thin- clads will open the season February 2nd in a three-way meet with the Wolverines to be held in the Field' House. The outdoor season is just the op- posite of the indoor, with five meets to be held at Ohio State, Pennsyl- vania, Purdue, Notre Dame, and Illi- nois. Seven Illini Return Illinois with seven key lettermen returning for another season looks like the best team from observations made this early in the season. These seven men compiled 41 out of 65% 1/ points garnered by the Illini in the Outdoor Championships last year. Purdue will have Bill Bangert, Na- tional Collegiate shot and discus champion. The Buckeyes will have an out- standing Freshman in Mickey Orfan- eedes who won the state half mile event last year Michigan with 13 lettermen can be counted on to give the visitors ample competition in all of the meets sched- uled for the local fans this winter.

Munn, who is in Northern Michigan showing football films and lecturing at present, will return here as soon as his tour is over to accept or turn down the Syracuse job. He is expected to conclude his lecture schedule in three or four days. 'Interested', Says Munn Contacted for a statement yester- day, Munn told reporters who in- formed him of the Syracuse offer, "Thanks for the compliment. I have not been officially informed of the opening, but I will be, interested if they offer me the head coach's job at Syracuse-or any head coaching job, for that matter." Announcement of the offer came from a spokesman for the Syracuse athletic governing board, who said that Ossie Solem, the present coach, would be released after Chancellor William Tolley approved the dis- charge. Solem, who won one game this year and two last year, was head coach at Syracuse in 1937, when Munn served as line coach under him. Came Here in '38 Munn, often mentioned as Head Coach H. O. (Fritz) Crisler's succes- sor when and if the Michigan mentor should decide to devote all his time to his job as athletic director, became line coach for the Wolverines in 1938, the year Crisler also started his ten- ure here. During Crisler's Panama trip for the Army last year, Munn took over as director of spring football drills. Crisler could not be reached for comment yesterday. In addition to his year at Syracuse, Munn was head football coach and athletic director at Albright College, Reading, Pa. He played under Crisler at Minnesota, and was named All- Conference and All-American guard in both 1930 and 1931. He also captained the track and football tcams as a senior, winning the Conference scholarship-athletics medal and receiving the Chicago Tribune award as the most valuale player the same year. The Syracuse position is not the first big-time coaching job Munn has been offered during his tenure at Michigan. He could have taken the head coach's job at Iowa last winter, but decided to refuse the bid. .Keen Reveals Seven Matches For Wrestlers Returning from a conference of Big Ten coaches, Cliff Keen, head wrest- ling mentor for the Wolverines, an- nounced that the 1945-46 wrestling team will compete against seven op- ponents.

During the Mohawk encounter the Michigan team passed uphseveral scoring opportunities and the Maize and Blue's puck mentor will continue to stress these points in this week's scrimmages. Heyliger was especially pleased with the showing of Michigan's varsity forward, Bill Jacobson, who marked up four of the team's eight goals. Commenting on Jacobson, Heyliger said "He had a great night, and was always in the right spot at the right! time."I The Maize and Blue coach an- nounced that Connie Hill was electedj captain of the 1945-46 sextet.
