his mount were complete strang-

Shut Out likeC 10 run IN front or

To show you how SOundiy the
hockey men are reasoning, Ross
argues that his team has been
crowding in games too fast
We're tired" says Ross.
"We're very tired. We have
got To have more time between
games. We've got 10 quit crowd
ing these games one right after
the other"
As a compromise, ruddy-faced
Jack, Adams came up with
bang, bang and a suggestion.
II have II, Artie. old boy"
said Jack. Instead of playing
Tuesday and Thursday night
and crOwding those games one
right after the other-it just
came TO NEWLY don't we play
Wednesday and Thursday nights
In Boston. What do you say,
Kid? Doesn't that solve every
thing?"
Ross arose. extended his hand
and gave rudy Jack a belt
across the liver.
Jack, that's dandy. In that
way my boys can rest Thursday
morning, have a light lunch and
he back out there To do battle
Thursday night. j agree"
Thus ended the famous battle.

Crisler Invites All
For Spring Grid Drills
He'll Lock Gate
SO Youngsters
Can't Get Away
By EDGAR HAYES

The gates on the Michigan foot
ball practice field will be locked
again this year during spring drills.
But contrary TO the regular sys-
tenn they'll be locked on the out
side so no youngster that reports
will be able TO get away. That's
how tough the situation will be
Monday when the first session Is
called.
Coach Fritz Crisler has sent
word around. Come one, come
all" And like most of the help
wanted ads he included, mo preVi-
Gus experience necessary.
perience necessary.
"We1l train as many boys as
turn out" the coach said Satur--
day morning. 1--WE don't care IL
they played high school football
or not. Not many of them will
be around when we assemble
again In the fall, but this train
ing will be most beneficial. We
aren't fussy about size or weight
this time. If a boy wants 10 get
this training we are most happy
TO give II"
They don't expect many from
last years team 10 turn out. Most
of the same players still in school
are playing baseball. They include
Captain Paul White. Don Wiese,
Don Lund and Robert Stenberg.
Many of the better freshmen also
are on Ray Fishers baseball squad.
Among those expected TO report
are Julius Franks, All-American
guard, and Bill Pritula, who turned
IN a good job at the tackle. Franks
is in the dentistry school and will
likely be permitted 10 finish his
school before he Is called.
The srny's recent announcement
confirming their previous order
that no candidates could play foot
ball hit all the colleges. But Michi-
gan expects to have 5000 navy
students who will be eligible, II
they can find the time.
The coaches everywhere admit
it's day 10 day proposition and
they still have no idea what the
situation will he in the fall.

Now here Is a chance for us
20 get in a prediction that VIII
