Ray Fisher, Michigan's veteran
baseball coach, will take his tal-
nts to Europe late next month,
conducting a series of baseball
clinics for the Army.
Fisher, recently named "Coach
of the Year," will hold these clinics
in four sections of Germany, and
will discuss all phases of baseball
with the troops. He will empha-
size pitching and catching.
The coach of the NCAA cham-
pions will spend two weeks on the
continent, and will work along

conjunction with the coaches of
the various army camps. )

One of the flashiest guards in
the country, versatile Don Eaddy,
has begun the 1953-54 season in
fine style.
A comparatively small guard,
measuring 5-11 and weighing 165,
Eaddy has proved this to be no
handicap. His outstanding defen-
sive work against high scoring op-
ponents who often have a size ad-
vantage has shown him to be one
7 of the best. In Michigan's initial

American Bob Leonard to five field
goals in twenty-two attempts.

ALTHOUGH suffering from a
leg injury he incurred in the Val-
paraiso game earlier in the season,
he has recovered sufficiently to
average ten points a game .
More familiar to his friends as
"don-don," he scored 292 points
last year which gave him runner-
up spot in the team scoring race.
He was not overlooked 'by the
Associated Press which gave him
recognition on one of its All-
American teams.
The 20-year-old junior is a nat-
ural athlete. Starting his varsity
career as a freshman, he has ex-
celled in basketball, baseball, and
football.
* *.*
ON THE gridiron he was consid-
ered to have great potential. How-
ever, he dropped the sport in order
to concentrate on basketball. Not
to be overlooked is the outstanding
ability he has exhibited on the dia-
mond, which last year rated him a
berth on the All Big Ten baseball
team.
A native son of Grand Rapids,
he attendedrOttawa Hills High
School where he collected a
grand total of 12 letters.
A Jackie Robinson fan, Eaddy
says that his big brother Jim is his
idol and it was he who inspired
him to play ball. His brother is a
forward on the Ohio Central State
basketball squad.

IN REFERENCE to his post
graduate career, Eaddy, now a
physical education major, stated.
"I really don't have much choice
as the Air Force will claim most of
my time for the three years foi-
lowing graduation." He feels that
he will be too old to play any pro-
fessional ball by the time he gets
out of the service.
Eaddy, a born comedian, be-
comes very serious when par-
ticipating in any athletic con-
test. When the Maize and Blue
dropped the 62-60 thriller to In-
diana, Eaddy who had played a
magnificent game that night,
collapsed to the floor in disap-
pointment.
This young man who draws ad-
miration from both the fans and
his fellow teammates, is looking
forward to one more year of var-
sity competition.

(Second of two articles explaining
some of the basic rules of college ice
hockey. Today's article deals with
types of penalties.)
By HANLEY GURWIN
According to the Official NCAA
Ice Hockey rules, penalties against
individual players are classified as
a Minor Penalty, a Major Penal-
ty, or a Misconduct Penalty.
The Minor Penalty calls for two
minutes in the penalty box, the
Major for five minutes, and the
Misconduct for ten. Only while a
player is serving a *Misconduct
Penalty may a substitute be used
to replace him.
rr
all
THE EXCEPTION to this rule
occurs when a goaltender is giv-
en a Minor Penalty. In this case,
a teammate designated by the
captain serves the time instead.
The goaltender himself must go
to the penalty box however when
a Major or Misconduct Penalty is
called against him.
Minor Penalties are called for
various infractions of the game
including high-sticking, offens-
ive or defensive interference,
throwing stick, illegal body-
checking, hooking, slashing, trip-
ping, roughing, cross-checking,
etc.
High-sticking is carrying the
stick above the height of four
feet from the ice. A player may
not play the puck with his stick
in any manner when the puck is
more than two feet off the ice. A
Major penalty is called if any in-
jury results from improper use of
the stick at any height.
* * * b
A FAIR body-check is one in
which a player with both feet be-
hind the blue line in his Defensive
Zone checks an opponent, who is
in possession of the puck, by using
his hip or body, from the front,
diagonally from the front, or
straight from the side and does
not take more than two fast steps
in executing the check.
It is charging if more than
two fast steps are taken, or if
the check is made from behind
or diagonally behind the oppo-
nent.
There shall be no pushing,
charging, or body checking an op-
ponent into the side or end boards
or goal cages, or attempting to do
so. Flagrant violations of-any of
the rules which ordinarily result
in Minor Penalties will be called a
Major, as will fighting, slugging
with the fists or stick, kicking, or
the attempting to do so.
* * *
A MISCONDUCT Penalty con-
sists of ten minutes and is imposed
upon players, when they use foul
or abusive language to an official
or in other ways attempt to in-'
fluence him. It will also be called
when a player persists in disput-
ing decisions or in showing dis-
respect for an official.
No team may be short more
than two men from the ice at a
time. If a penalty is called while
a team already has two others
serving time, then the third
penalty does not begin until one
of the other men comes out of
the penalty box. The third play-
er penalized may not play in the
meantime, but a substitute may
be used until his penalty starts.
Although this does not pertain
to penalties, an explanation of
Western Intercollegiate Ice Hock-
ey League method of determining
point values of hockey games might
be beneficial to many fans.
* * *
Each of the seven teams in the
league meets every other team ei-
ther twice or four times through-
out the season. If the teams meet
on four occasions, then each game'
is worth one point to the winner.
If the teams meet only twice, then
each game counts two points in
the standings. This explains why
total points in the standings can
not be figured out merely by
checking the won and lost records
of the teams.

'Liberalization
Of Sub Rules
SARASOTA, Fla.- P)--The
NCAA Football Rules Committee,
after hearing some 40 proposals to
liberalize the limited substitution
rule on college gridirons, turned
them all down yesterday.
"One-platoon football found in-
creasing favor among the public,
the coaches, the players and ev-
erybody during the 1953 season,"
said the committee secretary, E.
E. Wieman from the University of
Denver.
* * *
"WE WERE not willing to make,
any changes until we have had
another year of experience with
it."
The committee strongly con-
demned the faking of injuries to
stop the clock and the "sucker
shift" which is intended to pull
the opposition offside.
No rules changes were made but
the committee urged the country's
college coaches to eliminate "this
unethical practice from the great
American game for which they
have a primary responsibility."
