be remembered as the back who surpassed Tom
Harmon in Michigan football anals. Besides break-
ing Harmon's records for total yards and rushing
attempts, he also broke Big Ten records such as
total points in a season with 92 and the national
record for single game rushing yardage with 347
against Wisconsin. The former of these records

was previously held by another Big Ten represent-
ative to the All-American squad, Leroy Keyes.
