THE 1MCHIGAN DAILY Vins tatistics Battle but Loses Navy Halts Seven Michigan Scoring Thrusts for Victory (Continued from Page 1) John Herrnstein reinjured his left knee. Although his replace- ment, Tony Rio, played a good game at. the fullback slot, the Wolverines certainly had a less potent offense with Herrnstein's bull-like rushes missing. The extent of his injury is yet unknown, but it is possible the Michigan captain will be out of the lineup indefinitely. Another 'M' Drive Fails Late in the first period Michi- gan regained possession of the ball and were down to the Navy 24-yard line when the period end- ed.

Navy again stiffened and took over on downs. In the middle of the period Michigan scored its only first-half touchdown. Quarterback Stan Noskin's pass to John Halstead for 33 yards was the big gain in the 74-yard march. Rio scored from thb one with 7:33 gone. Harper's conversion kick was wide, leaving the score deadlocked at six apiece. Michigan Halted at One It was at this point that it ap- peared Michigan might break open the game. Myers kicked off and Navy's John Correll fumbled with the Wolverines' John Walker pouncing on the ball on Navy's 19. Seven plays later found the Wolverines on Navy's one-yard line. Both Walker and Myers tried to crack the defense on subse- quent plays but were unable to score. Michigan started off the third period with another touchdown, scored by Myers from six yards out with 4:01 gone.'.The Wolver- Ines gambled' on the extra point. Myers faked a conversion and Bob Ptacek, who was holding the ball, ran around right end into the end zone for the two points. This was the end of the Michi- gan scoring and Navy dominated for most of the remainder of the game. Although the Wolverines lost, there were certain bright spots which still might carry much weight in the season ahead. The quarterbacking, especially that of Ptacek, continued to be superb. Calling daring plays which seldom backfired, Ptacek was able to hold the fans' interest in a team which, although losing, con- tinued to be exciting. The defense was rugged for most of the game but little de- fense could be found for the razor- sharp passing, of Navy's Tranchi- ni. His passing, which had won him the "back of the week" award for his performance 14st week against Boston University, proved no fluke yesterday as he complet- ed eight of 13 for 117 yards. -Daly-David Arnold SECOND MICHIGAN TOUCHDOWN .- Tony Rio (37 at left), Michigan's rugged fullback who replaced injured John Herrnstein in yesterday's game, crashes over for the second Wolverine TD.

LANSING TEAM WINS, 20-13: Sexton Halts Pioneer Grid Machine f !. - . to in Amateu r Golf By DICK MINTZ A success story built over a period of 10 years finally reached an inevitable climax Friday night. Ann Arbor High, which since 1948 has been one of the top Michigan prep football powers and lord of the rugged Six-A League, had the last of its many, football records shattered by Lansing Sex- ton, 20-13. The defeat broke two long- standing winning streaks. It was the first Six-A defeat in 45 outings, and the first home loss in 10 sea, sons. Hank Fonde, the Pioneers' coach throughout this span, had never lost a league or home game. In fact, Fonde-coached Ann Ar- bor teams have lost only four games in his 10 years. The second year he coached the Pioneers lost to Toledo Scott, and then they ran up a streak of 40 undefeated games before being blasted by Flint Northern, 33-0, back in 1956. The other two defeats have come this fall, last week at the hands Coses.

The conference was opened by led 918 strokes Dr. A. C. Furstenberg, dean of the f in high winds, Michigan Medical School, whor e high 30s, rain congratulated the group for "tak-t ing problems of human welfare r , with the same seriousness you give to the problems of teaching and coaching." Dr. Roger Nelson, associate director of the University Hos- pital, said athletic directors and physicians could make major strides in reducing the number of athletic injuries. By working in close harmony, they could also minimize the effects of injuries that are sustained. Doctors Discuss Three surgeons from the Medi- cal Center=- Drs. Earl Wolfman, Edgar Kahn and Robert Bailey- discussed the types of injuries that occur most frequently and de- scribed methods far limiting the seriousness of injuries. Injuries to the chest, abdomen, head, spine and extremeities re- ceived close examination by the three Michigan doctors. A surprising number of football injuries and numerous deaths every year was noted by Dr. Nel- son. He said one study of 44,000 athletes showed that three per cent sustained serious or poten- tially serious injuries in a season. Another \study of 4,000 athletes found three of four were injured sufficiently to keep them out of four or more days of practice. Considerable Difference There is a considerable differ- ence between football injuries and normal injuries a doctor treats in any community, according to Dr. Wolfman. "The, team doctor is working with honest patients but patients may tend to minimize injuries because of their great desire to, play football," he explained. Athletes will not be kept in- active as long as would other peo- ple with similar injuries, he added. "Held Together by Tape"' Because it is difficult to keep injured players out for the season there is a certain amount of truth to the saying that a team is held like 4a .e THEN ,MEET AN INSTRUCTOR WHO HAS TAUGHT AT MIAMI AND NEW YORK.

He said that statistics, showing most injuries occur during the first five minutes of the game, indicate that a complete pre- game warmup. period is very im- portant. Being alert for concealed head injuries was emphasized by Dr. Kahn. "When a boy is injured in the head, everybody asks, 'Does he have a skull fracture?' Dr. Kahn said. "But a player may have re- ceived injury to his brain even if he does not have a skull frac- ture, and that is the important thing." Conditioning Important Dr. Robert W. Bailey, who dis- cussed and explained how to, handle injuries to body extremi- ties, said that conditioning plays an extremely important part in preventing injuries to the athlete. The"conference did not picture football as a basically 'dangerous sport. Dr. Kahn said, "It is much more dangerous to drive from here to the Straits at 60 miles per hour than to play football." Coaches from high schools in Washtenaw, Jackson, Lenawee, Livingston and Monroe counties attended. Tops In Collegiate HAIRSTYLING Tonsorial Queries Invited The Dascola Barbers Near Michigan Theater of Flint Central, and Friday against Sexton. Finally all of the Pioneers' streaks have fallen. For the first time since Fonde came to the school his team stands on the short end of the season% record, 1-2. There have been a number of ties during the 10 years, one of them in the Six-A, with Battle Creek in 1954. The Pioneers shared the title that year with the Battle Creek team, and have won it outright all other ,year's. Undoubtedly it was "fate" that proved Ann Arbor's undoing Fri- day. The breaks just didn't go their way. Credit shouldn't be taken from Sexton, however, since they played inspired ball under the leadership of quarterback Dave Campbell. Four touchdowns were scored in the second period, so that the halftime score was 13-13. Fail To Retaliate Early in the third period Sex- ton ground out the yardage to the one-yard line, and Campbell took the ball over to score. Ann Arbor wasn't able to answer this time, as they failed to make a, first down, although they handled the ball four more times. The Pioneers, with four more games to play, still can win as many as the 1957 team did by go- ing undefeated the rest of the way. Last year's squad had two non-, league ties with Ypsilanti and Flint Central. It is ironic that one of the school's top stars, Bob Correll of the Navy team, who was All-State for the Pioneers in 1955, should be back in town when the fateful blow came. Club chat Buses to NU With Michigan's next grid bat- tle an away game, the Wolverine Club is planning transportation for "M" students. Next Saturday's game will be at Northwestern, where the Michigan team will face its second Big Ten match, and will hope to get back on the winning-track. The Wolverine Club has made arrangements for buses to leave Ann Arbor Saturday morning at 6 a m. from the Union. The buses will make the return trip Sunday, leaving Evanston at 10 a.m. Students will have to make their own arrangements for overnight lodging at the Northwestern cam- pus for Saturday night. Tickets for the bus trip will cost $9.50 each. They will be on sale on the Diag beginning to- morrow and continuing through Wednesday. Forgetting ometing? ICHIGAN'S FOOTBALL TEAM forgot one of the principles of the grid game yesterday-that the team with the most points wins. The final score read Navy 20, Michigan 14. The fact that the' Wol- verines outplayed the Midshipmen for almost the entire 60 minuter of the game meant nothing. The most points always wins. Michigan coach Bennie Oosterbaan watched his team unveil many new plays, and the 80,000-plus crowd saw almost all'of the Wolverine backs make spectacular runs at some point during the afternoon. However, the brilliant offense always seemed to turn stagnant when it neared either end of the gridiron. Seven tims the fastmoving Michigan offense roared into Navy territory, but ran out of steam and failed to score. The game statistics suggest an overwhelming Michigan victory. In first downs the home squad made a fabulous 23, while Navy rolled up only 14. The Wolverines handled the ball for .more than 60% of the game time, and dominated the Midshipmen completely in total offense, having the ball for 79 plays as opposed to Navy's 53. The 'M' squad rushed for a total of 255 yards, and passed for 141 more, while Navy gained 162 and passed for 117. Between the two 20-yard lines Michigan's offensive Juggernaut was almost unstoppable. Starting quarterback Bob Ptacek, showing more versatility than in either of the previous Michigan games, un- folded many new running and passing plays. Stan Noskin, Ptacekls replacement, ran his usul deceptive switches from Tto single-wing. However, Ptacek proved the most effective, and was able to gain a neat 10 yards towards one 'M' score - in two successive off-sides penalties-by catching the Midshipmen unawares with a shift from T to single-wing. Midfeld Strength ...- THE FACT that Michigan ran more plays, and that the offens-was so effective, when they weren't trying to score, can be credited primarily to the rough play of the line. The blocking was terrific the majority of the time. Halfback Brad Myers and Fred Julian were aie to run end sweeps that had failed against both. Southern Caifofnia, and Michigan State. However, Navy stiffened every time that the Wolverines got inside the 20-yard line. Only twice were the 'M' backs able to drive t pay dirt. The rest of the time the Midshipmen broke past the blocks- which just didn't seem to click near. the goal line-and dumped' the Michigan backs for losses.,Actually, on plays originating deep In Navy territory, the Wolverines lost more yardage than they gained. It simply didn't look like the same team when the. going got tough. The punch wasn't there when it was, needed the most-close to the goal line. The effectiveness of the mid field- offense brought to light the talents of a number of Michigan backfield men. All of the first-string hit the headlines. Ptacek was a terrific field general, Myers recovered from a shaky first half to run his usual hard game the second half, and Julian played the greatest game of his Michigan career. Ooster- baan praised the Detroit junior for both his hard running and im- proving defensive play, The fourth member of the starting backfield-rugged fullback and captain John Herrnstein-again met his nemesis. After carrying the ball only twice, Herrnstein was carried from the field on a stretcher before the first quarter ended. The extent of the injury is not yet known, but it has been diagnosed as a torn ligament of the knee. Oosterbaan summed up his chances for further action with the state- ment, "a knee injury is always the worst of them all." AS IN THE MICHIGAN STATE game, it is hard to tell how mueh the team missed their rugged captain. Little Tony Rio, the toughest man for his size on the 'M' squad, filled in marvelously on both offense and defense. Another bright spot at the fullback position was sopho.. more John Walker, who saw his first varsity action, and showed good power on his line plunges. The outstanding reserve back, however, and the one who seems to be making the top bid for a starting position was Darrell Harper, Myers' understudy. Harper's knife-like line plunges, and driving end runs were the high-point of many of the 'M' drives that eventually fizzled. Healso kept up his high punt average with Michigan's only kick of the day-a 51-yard quick kick. Navy coach Eddie Erdelatz praised all of Michigan backs. "Every- one impressed me," he said, "they are an extremely weil-coached out- fit with some very good runners." When asked how he thought Michi- gan would do the rest of the season, he felt that "they will really go someplace. They should have a fine season." But then, what else can a coach say when a team outplays his squad, but he is still able to win. It looked for a long time like ,Michigan Athletic Director H. 0. "Fritz" Crisler might win another game. His new points-after-touch- down rule decided Michigan's first two games-the 20-19 victory over Southern California and the 12-12 tie with MSU. When MNichigan made its first two-point conversion on Ptacek's fake kick, the 14-lead looked sufficient. It wasn't. MICHIGAN DIDN'T WIN. They lost to a good team-one that didn't give up when the going was tough. However, the Wolverines won' the game of statistics, and showed that they have a line that can block, and a backfield that can run and pass. Oosterbaan had a sad expression on hiss face after the game, but he retained his sense of hunlor. The corner of the locker-room where he was talking to pressmen and well-wishers was dark. When asked why, he pointed to the ceiling, saying, "the light went out. Just like on that last Navy touchdown pass." As the last pressmen left, he bid them off with the thought, "the Conference season starts next week." , I i Relax with a fine G.B.D. Pipe. Choose from a wide selection of styles and prices.
