AMERICAN LEAGUE

Tough Opener
SMICHIGAN WAS EXPECTED to have a tough opening game. As
things turned out, it almost bit off more than it could chew. A
fighting but undermanned ball club from Southern California threw
quite a scare into the Wolverines last Saturday. But fumbles, inter-
cepted passes, penalties and a guy named John Herrnstein were too
much for the Trojans to overcome.
One fact was clear, however. The squad from the West coast had
nothing torbe ashamed of when the final whistle blew, ending Michi-
gan's home debut of 1958. The Trojans put up a whale of a battle.
Th~eir team is filled primarily with' sophomores, and the future for
Don Clark's squd is bright. It couldn't happen to a nicer guy. A brief
locker room meeting with the Trojan coach after Saturday's game
game proved what a real pro Clark is. He could have been bitter about
the loss. After all, to him every bad break in the game probably
seemed to hit his team. He was disappointed, of course, but he took
nothing away from the spirited play of the Wolverines. Hecalled
Michigan a real big and strong team and predicted a good season
for the Ann Arborites.
One of the outstanding players for Southern Cal was Hillard
Hill, a 6-1, 175-lb. senior. Hill sat out last season with a kidney ail-
nment, but the year's layoff seemed to have no effect on him. The
burly end was constantly ,in Michigan's backfield Saturday, putting
the pressure on the passers. And his pass-catching ability was more
than adequa.te.
Speaking of players who were handicapped in their junior year
by injuries, Michigan has one also. Tabbed as a.}great fullback from
the minute he arrived on campus, John Herrnstein has had to overcome
injury after injury. This season he looks like he is finally ready, and
barring further' misfortune, Herrny should have a great year., For
Michigan's sake, let's hope so. There is no doubt about it. Saturday
he was great. He gained 144 yards in 26 tries, an average of 5.5 yards
per try. And his defensive play was stirring. The entire Michigan
team only gained 191 yards by rushing,
Spartans Ahead
T HE MOST LOGICAL explanation, or realization if you prefer, for
,Michigan's narrow margin of victory is not a new reason. It's
been heard many times before; immediately 'after the opening game.
The explanation is: Michigan plays Michigan State in the second
Igame of the season and everyone has his mind on that game. Im-
mediately after the Southern Cal game, I, drove my way through the
crowd and eventually arrived in the Michigan locker room. I spoke to
five players, commenting to all of them how rough the play had been.
And do you know something, every single one of those men made the
same reply. "Yes, it was pretty tough, but next weeks it's going to be
a heck of a, lot tougher." That could be the understatement of the year.
While Michigan was struggling to defeat Southern Cal last Satur-
day, Michigan State had a relatively] easy time rolling over the
California Golden Bears. The Spartans played very conservative
football, and showed little of the gridiron trickery which they will
surely use against the Wolverines. Of course, Michigan didn't exactly
reveal very much either for the Spartan scouts. When I asked
Oosterbaan after the game about the extra point play, and whether
Michigan would ever try for ,two points, something it didn't attempt
Saturday, he replied, "Well, if I told you, that would be like telling
the other coach." And I'm sure Duffy Daugherty would like to know
what Michigan will do on the extra point play because it is just possible
that a single point, or two will decide this week's game between the
state rivals.

TOUCHDOWN BOUND - John Herrnstein, Michigan fullback,
plunges through the USC line to score his second touchdown in
Saturday's opener. Practice this week will accent the Wolverine's
defensive play.

Scott Cleveland's all around play
led Allen-Rumsey to an upset 16-6
victory over Gomberg in the top
game on the opening day of play,

Cleveland passed for both Rum-
sey scores as well as being the

Gomberg, a traditional power,
scored first, but Allen - Rumsey
scored at the qnd of the first half
on a pass from Cleveland to Bob
Litten to tie the score

way in which a team can go for
one as there is no place kicking.

Husky Tom Jobson's football
debut Saturday added another
chapter to the "all state bunk"
that coaches and keen-eyed re-
cruiters have learned to scorn.
The stubby, blond Michigan
sophomore brought only his rugged
205 pounds and streak of mean-
ness with him when he stepped
into the game against Southern
California; there was no scrapbook
of clippings.
But his fine performance against
the Trojans established him as one
of the top yearlings to watch in
the Wolverine lineup.
Jobson played about 25 minutes
as one of only 23 Michigan players
to get into the game. He and senior
starter Jerry Marciniak mnonop-
olized all of the right guard play-
ing time.
"Tom wasn't an all-stater in
prep school," Wally Weber, his
freshman coach, noted the day:
before the opener, "but we heard
of him and got a look at him.
"We've peen satisfied ever since."
Despite his lack of "ail" publicity
at small ;Flinit "Manderville High,
Jobson came to Michigan on schol-
arship and developed, fast after
being moved from tackle to ;guard.
In fall drills he worked his "way
up to second string, mainly because
of his superb blocking.
His finest moments in the
Southern Cal tilt, however, were
on defense when he twice threw
Trojan backs for losses in the im-
portant ,third quarter.
Actually, it wasn't known until
late last week whether he could
play in the opener due to a recent
leg injury.

Jobson and his teammates ,spent
yesterday jogging through a few
plays and looseningzup on pass de-
fense in the lightest scrimmage
of the: year.
The Wolverines' one-two quar-
terback punch, Bob Ptacek and
Stan Noskin ;watched the proceed-
ings from the side lines. Ptacek
had, hid hand bandaged after suf-
fering lacerations ,Saturday from
a Southern Cal cleat.
Noskin was withheld from drills,
due to a cold.

GRID SELECTIONS
The winner of the first grid picks contest is still somewhat of a
mystery to us.
The victor failed to include his, her or its first name on their entry
and therefore we are appealing to Soaby, 528 Walnut, to come to The
Daily and collect his prize.
Soaby picked 18 out of twenty games right and tied with Dennis
Loeffler, 6316 Scott House, South Quad, but Soaby picked Michigan
to win 24-20 and thereby edged out Loeffler, who had the Wolverines
winning 22-15, to win the movie tickets.
All the losers get another chance this week. Send or bring all
entries to: Grid Picks, Michigan Daily, 420 Maynard.

The dramatic Detroit Lions, de-
fending champions of the Nation-
al Football League, failed to pull
their usual theatrics Sunday, as
they lost the opener of the seasoi
to the Baltimore Colts, 28-15.
The Lions, known for the1r
"m i r a c I e" finishes last year,
seemed to lose their golden touch
as they blew four beautiful scor-
ing chances.
Among them was a 15-yard
field goal attempt and two tries
for extra points.
The Colts' defensive line, led by
Gene (Big Daddy) Lipscomb held
Snuth Named

Mayo Smith, former manager
of the Philadelphia Phils, was
signed last night to. a one-year
contract to manage the Cincin-
nati Redlegs.
Earlier yesterday Solly Hemus
was named player-manager of
the St. Louis Cardinals.

and then Jim Martin, who had l
continuously booted the ball out
of the end zone on kickoffs,
missed a 15-yard field goal.
Browns Victorious
Lou Groza's kicking and Jimmy
Brown's running led last year's
Eastern Division c h a m p i o n s,,
Cleveland, to , 30-27 victory over
the Los Angeles Rams. Brown
gained 171 .Yards in 24 attempts
and scored twice, while Groza
booted a four-yard field goal with
23 seconds to go for the winning
margin.

Bears Roll
The powerful Chicago Bears
rolled to a 34-20 win over the
Green Bay Packers. Rookie 'Willie
Gallimore scored three touch-
downs for the Bears.
* * * '
Kicking remains a big part of
the pro game as was shown by
Gordie Soltau of the San Fran-
cisco 49ers. He booted a 22-yard
field goal with less than three
minutes to go to beat the Pitts-
burgh Steelers, 23-20.

Redskins Win.
The Philadelphia Eagles were
defeated by a fourth quarter rally'
of the Washington Redskins,
