ANN ARBOR, Mich, Oct S.-(Spe.
cialD-Profting by the mistakes OF
the Case game Saturday her when
the Wolverines won $40. Coach Yost
will start this week 10 get together
the strongest possible combination
out OF the IL players he has selected
from the big squad for the training
table.
This does not mean that the other
members OF the squad will not have
q chance TO secure a berth on the
team. as any number OF them have
shown enough to warrant their reten-
ton on the squad. Yost has simply
selected the most likely looking in
the lot, and these will have the ad.

training season.
The mact that among the IL chosen
there are fve men who have at vari.
ous times been played at guard and

Paterson and Barton, were the only
men in the line to remain throughout
the entire struggle.

pretty good grip on things, and de-
spite the fact that early season
prophecies are not always accurate
ones. IL seems to be pretty safe
guess that he has the position cinch-
ed. The other tackle is one which is
giving Yost the greatest amount OF
bother. He has played McHale.
