the Wolverines did not meet but will hook up next fall In the me morial stadium at homecoming Coach Ruby and his basketeers ran the gamut from nothing to everything Beset with injuries the team lost four of the first six games and roosted dismally in the cellar With Captain Potter the main stay on the bench with a wrenched knee his teammates lost to Ohio State by three points and to Wis consin by a single marker When he recovered the Illlnl won six con secitive victories went from sev enth to first place and tied with Chicago and Wisconsin for the championship The wrestling started the season
