HARALD OLSEN, Bookbinder 815 Brookwood - - - Phone 2-2915 SPORTS Crisler Stresses Scrimmage, Signal Drills, at Grid Practice NEIS+~VIEWS * MuMNT I By BILL MULLENDORE, Daily Sports Editor WE RECEIVED a rather interesting letter in Monday morning's mail from Prof. Ralph Aigler taking issue with some of our remarks concerning the differing composition by states of the Michigan and Ohio State football squads. Prof. Aigler, in case you didn't know, ranks as one of Michigan's top football authorities and also as one of the school's most staunch athletic boosters. He has served long and well in the Board in Control of intercol- legiate Athletics and is a well-known figure at all Michigan sports events. The reader may recall that in Saturday's Daily we made some observations to the effect that the greater part of Ohio State's football talent came from the state of Ohio, while Michigan teams end to draw their personnel from outside areas to a much greater extent. Continuous from 1 P.M. COOL! Last Times Today EbECTRIC ...WITH EXCITEMfENTI Hedy George Paul LAMARR - BRERT -LUKAS in rllf E I E THOUGHT these facts interesting, especially since the two schools have a long traditional rivalry and located within a relatively short distance of each other. We were not, however, condemning Michigan for its reliance on out-state football players, nor were we accusing the Uni- versity of high-pressure tactics in bringing prospects to the school. Prof. Aigler has this to say on the situation: "Your observations in this morning's paper regarding the territory from which the Ohio State and Michigan football players conic is inter- esting. I think, however, you overlook what is probably the most import- ant factor in the entire situation. You speak of it as if it were almost, if not completely, a matter of 'recruiting methods'. "Is it not obvious that any comparison of out-of-state candidates is completely misleading unless you take into account the source of the student bodies generally? Conditions just now are unusual, as you point out, at least here at Michigan because of our service units. Over a period of a good many years that might be classed as normal, I observed that the percentage of out-of-state candidates for athletic teams was about exactly the same as the percentage of out-of-state students in the University generally, "I am not in a position to speak authoritatively or specifically, but it is common knowledge that the general student body at Ohio State is made up very largely of boys and girls from the state of Ohio. It would then be unusual, to say the least, if any large percentage of Ohio's athletic candidates were to come from outside Ohio. My own studies as to the situation here showed that, while in some years the percentage of out- state candidates might be higher, that would be offset by perhaps a suc- ceeding year in which the percentage was lower. I think you will find, as I said above, that, taking a period of five years, for example, the per- centages accord very, very closely. "In the light of this, the seeming self-denial indicated by Mr. Wid- does in his statement as published loses much of its force. "MAY I ADD, frankly, that few things, athletically speaking, have irri- tated me more than the point some of our critics have been inclined to make, either expressly or impliedly, that Michigan must do intensive, and perhaps improper 'recruiting' because we ordinarily have a considerable number of out-state young men on our athletic teams. It would, indeed, be surprising if we did not have such representation." Upon receiving this letter, we promptly checked on Prof. Aigler's contention and discovered, as we expected, that his observations are correct. As a matter of fact, we had no intention of implying anything vicious by our comparison. We have been interested for some time in this matter of proselyting of athletes, and as far as we have been able to discover none of thai sort of thing goes on at Michigan. Perhaps it was the choice of the word "recruiting" that was unfor- tunate. By it we simply meant the sum of the ways by which Michigan, or any other school, obtains its athletes. And we definitely did not wish to leave anyone with the notion that we were shaking a figurative finger at the University just because it has a large proportion of out-staters on its squads. As Prof. Aigler pointed out, it would be surprising, and perhaps open to question, if such were not the case. Major League Standings... GENE DERRICOTTE . ie returned-for a day Geii e er ~'eo o Visi'ts Scene 0of M T Ex-Star on Furlough From U S.Air Corps Aviation Cadet Gene Derricotte, starting tailback on last season's Michigan football team, paid a re- turn visit to the campus yesterday before returning to flight training at Tuskegee, Alabana, where he has completed his pre-flight work and is scheduled to enter primary training. Hailed as one of the finesthback- field prospects Michigan has had in recent years, Derricotte shared the tailback duties with Bill Culligan last fall and established himself as one of the Western Conference's most consistent ground-gainers. He was one of the few freshmen ever to start for a Michigan eleven. Following the close of the 1944 gri{l stason, Derricotte entered the Army, from where he made his way into the Air Forces. He exf;;ects to receive his commission sometime next. spring. Derricotte's football performance az Michigan was hampered by a sue-" cession of minor injuries that kept him below peak condition most of the season. His less near the beginning of the final game of the campaign against Ohio State, in which the Big Ten championship hung in the bal- an-, contributed more than a little to the Wolverines' 18-14 defeat in that contest. Aviation Cadets are barred from' intercollegiate competition at Tus- kegec, so Derricotte has played lit- tle football 'hile in service. He did don shorts and football shoes to work out briefly with the squad in yesterday's drills. Potential Starters Reduced by Coach Following a carefully planned training schedule, Michigan's 1945 grid squad broke into its third week of summer practice yesterday with greater emphasis being placed on scrimmage and signal drills. Head Coaech "Fritz" Crisler con- centrapted on tutoring his charges on a tricky!, fast-breaking attack. Sim- ula-ung actual game conditions, two ;quads laced each other during the workolt. Actual body contact was light, with special attention devoted to smoothing out the kinks in coach Earl Martineau's four backfield com- binations. The daily scrimmage be- tween the Blues and Whites ended the pract ice session. With the candidates revealing more and more of their ability in these drills, Coach Crisler has nar- rowed the list of hopefuls who will be potential starters in the first game of the season nine weeks hence. At this time the Bluejack- ets from Great Lakes will invade Ann Arbor in an attempt to avenge the defeat they suffered at the hands of the Wolverines last year. Joe Ponsetto, quarterback on the '44 eleven, and captain of this year's crew is ably filling his berth and is counted on to direct the Maize and Blue backfield in the coming grid clashes. In addition, Howard Yerges, sec- ond-string quarterback last season, Russ Reader, and Bill Redmond are working out in the field general's" aego Breaks Mile Record STOCKHOLM, July 1'7-44P)--Gun- der Haegg, the long-striding Swedish runner, smashed the world record for the mile run today as he was clocked in four minutes, one and four-tenths seconds in beating Arne Andersson in their first meeting of the season at Malmo. Andersson, who holds the accepted record of 4:02.6 for the mile, also bettered the old standard as he was timed in 4:02.2. Andersson, a 29-year old school- master, made his recognized world standard at the Swedish National Festival Track Meet on July 1, 1943. In doing so, he took the play away from the more noted Haegg, who first came into international promi- nence when he bettered the record set by England's Stan Wooderson in 1937. The spindly English racer lop- ed the mile in 4:06.2 in 1937 but the Swedish haberdasher brought the time down two-tenths of a second in 1942 and shortly thereafter was clocked in 4:04.6. position while Warren Bentz, Henry has been laid off until the injury Fonde.
