Davis, shown above, is a sophomore back who can run 100 yards in less than 10 seconds. He is fast and shifty. During three seasons at Lansing Central where he was a teammate of Mervin Pregulman, Wolverine guard, Davis sprinted to 33 touchdowns. He can really travel.

Hetchler snagged a flat pass and ran 48 yards for one of the Ann Arbor touchdowns and Chubb proved the most consistent ground gainer in the defending champs' backfield last night. Both opened the season as fullbacks but Hetchler has been shifted to quarter as a results of injuries to Bill Marshall, first-string signal caller. Chubb is still holding forth at the fullback spot.

Caption
CONFIDENT OF VICTORY, AND WHY NOT?: The two principal reasons why the Chicago Towers club will probably supplant Michigan tonight at the National AAU swimming championships are shown above. Mainly through the superiority of these two men, the Chicago team built up a four-point margin over Michigan in the first five events last night. These same two boys should be able to protect that margin in tonight's five finals. At the left is Otto Jaretz, who won the 220-yard free style crown last night and anchored the 400-yard relay team to a triumph and new world's record. That infectious grin at the right is displayed by Adolph Kiefer, who easily defended his title in the individual medley and swam on the No. 2 Chicago relay team that placed fourth. Tonight Jaretz will defend his title in the 100-yard free style and Kiefer is almost a certainty to keep his back-stroke crown. Then- in the final event of the evening, Jaretz and Kiefer will swim on the favored medley relay team which is expected to win first place and clinch the team championship.
