THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE TIMEM Wolverines To Buck Middies Today Ice Squad Packs Card With Top Ranking Clubs Wolverines Schedule Minnesota, Colorado; Open Against Champion Windsor Spitfires By DES HOWARTH Highlighted by an intersectional series with the University of Colo- rado, a four game series with Minne- sota's Gophers, and a host of other first rate contests, the Wolverine hockey schedule is one of the most ambitious and colorful in Michigan Michigan and Minnesota will re- new their rivalry January 18 and 19' here in Ann Arbor and will conclude what promises to be an exciting series in Minneapolis the first two days of February. Last year Michigan ab- history.v 25 Games Opening here December 1 against the formidable Windsor Spitfires, Junior Champions of Ontario last year, Coach Vic Heyliger's puckmen will pry the lid off a spectacular 25 game schedule, which will see them in action until the early part of March. In addition to the Gophers and Colorado, Michigan will encounter Michigan Tech, McMasters Univer- sity of Hamilton, Toronto University and various leading amateur sextets of Ontario. Home and away series have been arranged with Minnesota, Michigan Tech, Toronto, the Spitfires and the Windsor Colonials. The Colo- rado series will be played there Jan. 11 and 12. New Opponents This year's schedule will bring sev- eral new teams to Ann Arbor. Owen Sound Juniors will follow the Spit- fires here on Dec. 8. Saulte St. Marie, the Colonials, DeLaSalle, St. Cath- erines, Gault, and McMasters all of whom appear fon the. coliseum ice this winter were not scheduled by the Wolverines last year. As yet, how- ever, the St. Catherines and Gault games are only tentative. Sarnia, beaten in a single game with Michi- gan last season will make their ap- pearance also. Jackson Loses To Ann Arbor The Ann Arbor High School Pio- neers met and defeated Jackson High School's football team to the tune of 44-7 last night at Wines Field. The star of yesterday's tilt was Hank Platt, captain of Ann Arbor's gridmen, who scored four touchdowns for the Pioneers. Platt was also suc- cessful in the point after touchdown department, making two conversions. Ted Judson, who also plays in the backfield for Ann Arbor, shared the limelight with Platt last night. Jud- son was responsible for two touch- downs. Jackson scored its only touchdown in the first quarter when Bill Gal- breath,end, snagged a pass from Ray Uribe which was good for 20 yards and a touchdown. I SPOuTS NEWS + VIEWS + COMMENT By BILL MULLENDORE, Sports Editor WE AREN'T bragging, but we are just a wee bit proud of our score on last week's predictions in the various Western Conference football games. Great Lakes crossed us up by beating Illinois, 12-6. but we were right on all the others. We must admit, however, that Northwestern didn't do our already frayed nerves any good by what it almost did to Ohio State. Going down the line otherwise, we successfully picked Michigan over Minnesota, but the margin of victory was quite a little more than, our one-touchdown prediction. Frankly, we wish it had been five or six instead of four. . Wisconsin beat Iowa, as announced, but that one wasn't as close as we had thought, either. Purdue took Pitt handily, as per schedule, and Indiana had no trouble with Cornell College. That gives us five out of six and an .833 average. If we do as well this week, we might lose a button or two off our vest-if we owned a vest. MICHIGAN-NAVY-Why do the tough ones have to come up first? Navy is still the best team in the country-on paper-but you would never know it from the record. On the basis of Michigan's perform- ance last week, we'll take the Wolverines, again by a touchdown or so. IOWA-ILLINOIS-Coach Ray Eliot's fumbling and stumbling Illini win one at last. In fact, we don't see how they can lose. NORTHWESTERN-WISCQNSIN-Should be easy for the Northwest- erns, but they had better keep thei? eyes open. Wisconsin could pull an upset here. OHIO STATE-PITTSBURGH-Why does everybody pick on the poor Panthers? They haven't a chance, it says here. Ohio State, by plenty. PURDUE-MIAMI (O.)--This is like taking candy from a baby. We have never even heard of Miami, O., but the schedule says there is such an institution. Write your own ticket on the score. MINNESOTA-INDIANA-We'd like to see the Gophers win this one since Indiana has to lose a game to give Michigan a shot at the title. But common sense says the Hoosiers, and we hope we're wrong. LAND BATTLESHIPS: Baltimore To Be Site of Grid Battle (continued from Page 1) ing, sports experts have hinted at dis- sension in the ranks, improper coach- ing, and just plain over-estimation. Whether any or all of these charges are correct stands to be decided in large measure today: Michigan, too, has a lot at stake. tract from Michigan prestige as Cris- ler's unseasoned youngsters drew rave notices for their losing battle. All-Americans Navy will be at full strength for al- most the first time this season. All- American Bobby Jenkins and bruising Clyde Scott, have fully recovered from injuries and should be ready for 60 minutes of action, if necessary. In the Middie line, All-American candi- date Chuck Kiser will be back in his regular right tackle position after a long absence. Michigan, on the other hand, finds itself with a serious weakness at quarterback for the fray. Otherwise, the Wolverine squad should be in the top shape it requires to play a heavier, older, more experienced opponent. Eyes will be focussed on the task force of backs available to Hagberg, and well they might. In addition to Jenkins and Scott, the Middie squad boasts such grid luminaries as ex- Penn speedster Tony Minisi, Bob Hoernschemeyer, the former Indiana passing whiz, Bob Kelley, the Notre Dame star, and several otheers. 200-Pound Average But it must not be forgotten that the Navy line is also one of the most formidable in the nation. Averaging over 200 pounds per man, it was good enough to turn back two thrusts by Irish All-American candidate Frank Dance icz from the one-foot line last week in the closing seconds of play. Other line stalwarts include ends Leon Bramlett and Dick Duden, both All-American possibilities, Kiser, and center Rich Scott, an almost certain All-America choice. Against this beef trust, the Wol- verline line, averaging 188, may be hard put not only to halt the charge of the Navy backs but also to open holes for its own backfield stars. A battle of lines, with the backs getting second billing, would not be the most surprising development. The probable lineups MICHIGAN POS.

Middies' Line Expected To Be Main Threat Against Michigan CLASSIFIED ADVERTISINGJ By CLARK BAKER When Navy trots on the field today at Baltimore some 60,000 pairs of eyes will be focused on the Middies' All- American array of backfield luminar- ies with all too few thoughts about the front line which has kept the fu- ture Admirals rolling. Yet any other coach in the coun- try would be satisfied if he had Os- car Hagberg's line alone. Take the ends, for instance. There's big Leon BramIett, one of the stal- warts of the line in 1944. And Cap- tain Dick Duden who is strutting Fifty Grapplers Out For Squad Servicemen Turn Out For Varsity Wrestling Fifty grapplers, two-thirds of whom' are service personnel and one a vet- eran, are vieing for positions on this year's varsity wrestling team. Art Sachsel, who wrestled in the 121-pound division on last year's squad, is the only returning veteran from that aggregation. Despite this lack of experienced material, Coach Cliff Keen is pleased with the interest and great enthusiasm shown by those out for the team. Since most of the men have had no previous wrestling experience, the main emphasis in this week's practice is conditioning, which also includes some roadwork. Technique on the mat is also being stressed. Every man has been working very hard the last few days, and Coach Keen believes that with this spirit, the 1946 wrestling team will develop into a good outfit. The season's schedule will be worked out the second week of next month. A tentative list of opponents are Michigan State, In- diana, Purdue, Ohio Stite, North- western, Wisconsin, and Illinois. There is still an opportunity for all those interested in learning how to, wrestle to come out for the team. Any" men wishing to do so should report to Coach Cliff Keen at Yost Field House any afternoon after 3 o'clock. his stuff on the flank after doing most the Middies' blocking from a backfield post last year. Duden is a fine pass catcher whose most me- morable afternoon was against Penn when he moved all over Franklin Field gathering in Bob Hoernschmeyer's heaves. Navy's loaded at tackle, too. Chuck Kiser, who's been injured most of the season will be ready for Michigan. Notre Dame will remember for a long time to come the Middies' other tac- kle, John Coppedge. He was the fifth man in the Irish backfield all after- noon. With Kiser's return another ace with plenty of experience, New- bold Smith, is no better than third, man. Jim Carrington, at guard, is al- ready being boomed for All-America. His performances all year have amply filled in for Big Ben Chase who grad- uated last year. Ed Deramee is the other guard who also saw action for the Navy last year. Third-stringer Jack Currace is the "Ponsetto" of the Annapolis outfit. He boots those all important extra points. The center, Dick Scott, needs little introduction. He is already acknowl- edged as probably the top center in the East and maybe even the country. Scott played second string to Jack Martin last year but he's blossomed out on his own this fall. That's the roster of the Navy line and it's performances are well supported by the statistics. Against all comers this fall these stalwarts have yielded a bare 103 yards per game average . They're particularly hot when the chips are down. No- tre Dame had two plays from the one-foot line against the Middies last Saturday and each time the Navy lads stopped them. Only the Irish have been able to dent the future Admirals' line for a touch- down this year and they could do it only once. Yes, line coach Rip Miller's boys will offer a real chal- lenge to Fritz Crisler's offense. 60,000 fans will be out to see the Hoernschmeyers, the Scotts, the Minisis, the Kellys, and the Jenkins perform today. But the Navy line will bear the real watching, for a big hunk of the Maize and Blue strategy will depend on the Wolverines crack- ing the Navy front line of defense. Not rated very highly at the start of the fall campaign, the Wolverines have made a surprising showing in winning 'five games and losing only two. One loss, to an Army eleven generally rated as the best anywhere, served to enhance rather than de- Irish Will Fight To Beat Army NEW YORK, Nov. 9--0P)-Throngs of skeptics who refused to believe last year's 59-0 rout of the Irish gave an underdog Notre Dame eleven a fight- ing chance to upset the Army power- house today in the Nation's number one football game. A crowd of 76,000 was certain to jam the Yankee Stadium for the perennial sellout with a collection of assorted brass hats, cadets, GIs, sub- way alumni and friends of the family. The Army was conceded to be the best club in the country with its pow- erful line and dazzling backfield com- bination of Glenn Davis and Doc Blanchard. h" Bob Nussbaumer RI!
