1947, THE MICHIGAN DAILY lWolverines Take On State Five Team... (Continued from Page 1) WIT HOUT A PASS?: 'Point A Minute' Tei Achieves 'Mile A Game' Pucksters Face Toronto ICharity Game Tonight Wolverines Seek First Victory of Series; Canadians Have Experience Advantage By HERB RUSKIN Gunning for their first victory against Toronto since the inau- gural of the nine game series, Michigan's high flying hockey squad meets the Canadians to- night at 8:30 in the Chicago Arena in what promises to be one of the best games of the season. Virtually the same team that downed the Wolverines twice last year will be available for tonight's tilt. This in part, is due to a Canadian collegiate rule that per- ~'mits athletes up to six years of eligibility. Toronto, too will have an ex- perience advantage in that they have seen more action this sea- son than the Wolverines, hav- ing played six games thus far. Among their wins, they boast ra 4-2 victory over McGill Uni- versity, one of the collegiate hockey powers in Canada. Faced by the fast first line of Wally Gacek, Al Renfrew and Gordie McMillan, who have ac- counted for 10 of Michigan's 17 goals this season, coach Vic Hey- liger will send a seasoned squad on the ice in the attempt to end Xoronto's mastery. On the second forward wall, H)eyliger will have Bob Marshall, Ted Greer and Bill Jacobson, with Owen McArdle, Sam Sted- man and Leonard Brumm on the third line. Michigan's fine defense duo, Captain Connie Hill and Ross Smith will have able support from Dick Starrak and Herb Upton, while Marshall, who effectively teamed up with Hill last year on defense, is always available if needed. Jack MacDonald will be in the nets for the Wolverines, with Paul Milanowski as a spare goal tender. Toronto's coach, Ace Bailey, a former Toronto Maple Leaf star and now in his seventh year as coach at the university starts a team comprrised prin- cipally of two year veterans and no members of the squad are without experience on the sen- ior, or varsity, sextet or on the juniors. Harry Boyd, Warren Winslow, and Harrry Johnston will com- prise the Toronto first line, while the Canadian defense will be led by Captain Ed Kryzanowski and Bob LaRose. Don Saunders is the Toronto goalie. As able replacements for the line, Bailey will have Don Bark, Cecil Turcott and Bob Henry, all two year men, as his second forward wall. The two teams will meet again Friday night, this time in Ann Arbor, in the Coliseum. I-M Notice All engineering students are urged to attend a meeting at 7 p.m. tonight in the Anderson Room of the Union. Plans for forming a basketball team in the I-M Independent League under the sponsorship of the Engineering Council will be discussed. The council will fur- nish uniforms and a manager with some basketball experi- ence is being sought. Independent League Set To Start Play Today is the final deadline for entering teams in the Indepen- dent League. A total- of 23 teams now com- prise the league. Competition will begin the week following vaca- tion with 12 teams playing every Thursday night and the remain- der on Saturday. Residence halls and fraternities will also begin their schedules following vacation. Four residence hall tourna- ments were decided earlier this week. Monday night,3Lloyd House defeated Hinisdale 3-2 for the table tennis championship the second consecutive year and Wen- ley House took first in water polo beating Winchell 3-2. On Tuesday Fletcher won hand- ball honors by defeating Mich- igan House, 2-1, and Vaughan defeated Winchell, 3-2, for the volley ball trophy. The Turkish club of the Inter- national Center completed an un- defeated season by winning the International Center volley ball championship. DID YOU KNOW that in its se- ries with Mich. Tech, the Wolver- ine hockey team has been victo- rious in 26 games while dropping 17 to the opposition. There have been two ties in the series. A star Wolverine basketball for ward and the Spartan head coach will be among the notable absen- tees on each side of the court for tonight's tradition-steeped Michi- gan-Michigan State game at East Lansing. Mack Suprunowicz, slender 165- pound speedster who has been bothered with a head injury ever since he injured himself in Sat- urday's opener with Western Michigan, will rest up in Ann Ar- bor today instead of making the 55-mile road trip with the team. The Spartans engage the Wolverines minus the guiding genius of their 54-year-old mentor, Ben F. Van Alstyne, who was recently stricken by an emergency appendectomy. Assistant Coach Alton S. Kircher will direct the home quintet at Jennison Field House tonight. At any event, Michigan State, which opens an ambitious 22- game schedule with some of the toughest competitors in this year's collegiate ranks, will have to bank heavily on their team speed against the Wolverines. Despite the temporary loss of Suprunowicz, Coach Ozzie Cowles is blessed with sufficient squad depth to hurl at the Lansing lads. He will probably select his two starting forwards from "Dutch" Weidra. Bill Mikulich, and Boyd McCaslin-all of whom saw con- Suprunowicz To Be Out! Of M' Starting Quintet siderable action in team victory Saturday., Capt. Bob Harrison, chief scorerI in the campaign opener with 161 points,. and Hal Morrill, a sharp- shooting southpaw, will start at the guard posts. Fans expect to see a keen competitive duel between the centers tonight. Wolverine Bill Roberts, who towers 6 feet 6, was exceptional on rebounds and all-around play last week. The home crowd is particularly anxious to see Bob Brannum, for- mer All
