MICHIGAN TEAM IS LOOKING UP — Michigan Football Team Seems Definitely On Upgrade (Copyright 1937 by UP.) Ann Arbor. Mich. Sept. 21. <U.R> —This is the year Michigan's foot- ' bull fortunes strike a winning number after the worst depression i since the old-time Wolverines first began to rule the west. • Michigan won't kick up much of a rumble in the Big Ten conference against such heavy favorites ias Minnesota and Northwestern, i but patient Harry Kipke finally has ' the team on the upgrade. The squad is rich in veterans — ,21 letterilien and the best of the I old lot, plus some of the new, has I been moulded into a strong de- ! fensive eleven. Offensively, he apparently hasn't even the punt and pass to go with his prayer. •'We'll be much stronger all i around." Kipke said. “If we had , ' one more good back we might ■ cause plenty of trouble " As it is, Michigan probably will [ ibe the underdog again against i Michigan State. Northwestern. Ohio State and Minnesota with an even break or better against lowa. Illinois. Chicago and Pennsylvania. Part of the credit for what may , be one of th toughest defensive I . lines in the conference should go Ito Hartley (Hunk) Anderson, who I brought some of his old Notre 1 Dame line tricks to Michigan this i season. Under his handling, last year's regular tackles are on the, second team and the former start-I ing guards are far down the list. The weakest spot in the forward wall falls on the ends, of which, all excel at one thing only. Best . of the lot appear to be Art Valpey. a letterman, and John Nicholson, last year's squadman. who shows | vast improvement. Other prominent ends are sophomore Joe Rogers and veteran Eller Gedeon, two giants adept at receiving passes. The first pair of tackles, letter- , man Don Siegel and sophomore 1 Bill Smith, are standouts in the line, hut the talent falls off slight-, ly with the reserves. Jim Lincoln. Dennis Kuhn, Roland Savilla and Earl Luby. Anderson has changed the de-i fensive guard play entirely, coach ing tfiese boys to stand up and keep their eyes on the play instead of "submarining." Coming along I fast are Fred Olds and Ralph Heikkinen, who couldn't make the team a year ago. Forrest Jordan ‘ and Clarence Van Dewater, two more veterans, are next in line, with last year's regulars. John | Brennan and George Marzone. ‘ I trailing along.

GIANTS. MS OPEN CRUCIAL SERIES TODAY Three-Game Series For League Crown Opens This Afternoon New York. Sept. 21 (URY The National league pennant race ap- ; proaches a climax today in ( hieago. where the league-leading Giants open a 3 game series against the second place Cuba. With a 2>£ game lead the Giants I can't drop back unless they lose I three straight to the Cubs. In that I event the Cubs would be on top I by .001 and make the standing: Chicago 87 57 —.604 New York 85 56— 603. All the Giants need to keep on . their pennant course is to take ' one game in Chicago With only 10 games left for Chi j cago after the New York series , the odds will he heavily against them overtaking the Giants unless j they can sweep the current series j Two victories for the Giants vir-' tually would crush the Cubs' pen- j nafft hopes and a sweep for New York would clinch another “sub j way" world series. , The Cubs have come back to life I since Ripper Collins returned to first base, and have won four straight. Charlie Grimm has three , pitchers. French. Tax f’arle- ! ton and Curt Davis, all primed for I the Giants in that order. The i Giants haven't won a game at ’ Wrigley field since June 23 when 1 Carl Hubbell scored an 8-4 triumph. All season the Giants have won only two games out of eight In the Cubs' park. The Giants' pitching staff has shown signs of weakening under pressure the past three days, with Hubbell. Schumacher and Melton all unable to pltfli complete games. Hard and timely hitting, however, has kept them out of I trouble. Rival pitchers for today's game are Larry French. Cubs' southpaw who has won his last three starts, including two shutouts, and Harry Gumbert, who pitches at his best : against the Cubs. The betting odds are 6-1 and take your choice. The Giants slugged their way yesterday to their second straight over the Cardinals. 10-3. collecting 1 17 hits and driving Bob Weiland i to cover in the first inning Jimmy ■ Ripple and Burgess Whitehead i each made two doubles and a single. Cliff Melton. Giants' southpaw, was touched for six hits in the first inning ' Wild base runn-

ing allowed hltn to get out with only three runs zeored. Carl Hubliell finished the game, and allowed only 4 hits in 7 innings for hia 20th victory The Cubs had a close call with Brooklyn. winning. 5-4, after I mopping a Dodger rally one run I short of tying the game in the ninth Bill Lee held the Dodgers to 2 hits until the ninth and then , collapsed. With the bases filled Bob la>gnn. rookie southpaw, came j in and retired Rosen for the final out Stanley Hack had a perfect ' day at hat, getting "4 for 4." The New York Yankees need only 4 more victories to clinch the American league pennant. I-“fty I Gomez won his 20th game when ;he held the Detroit Tigers to 4 I hits for his sixth shutout. 5-0. Joe Di Maggio hit homer No 44 with ’ a man on off Lefty Jake Wade. The Boston Red Sox dropped i ■ into a fourth place tie with Cleve-I , land by dividing a double header | ' with the St. Louis Browns St ; | Louis collected 14 hits to win the I i opener. 8-6. while Bobby Doerr's ' homer with a man on enabled the [ Red Sox to win the secon<| game.
