fourth-period touchdowns
day and handed Michigan
its first shutout in 40 games,

16-0, before a homecoming crowd
of 68,811.
Until the final period, it ap-
peared as though the Illini's first-
period field goal by Don Yeazel
would stand as the only score of
the game.
The Spartans, given numerous
opportunities in the first half,
couldn't cash in. Their only threat
in the second half fizzled in the
wake of a field goal attempt which
went low and wide.

Wisconsin Ties OSU
COLUMBUS, O. - Wisconsin
knocked some of the luster off
second-ranked Ohio State yester-
day as the underdog Badgers bat-
tled the Buckeyes to a 7-7 dead-
'lock in a Western Conference
game before 83,142 rain-soaked
fans.
Two bad breaks in the closing
minutes kept the Badgers from
turning in a startling upset. Each
team scored in the third period of
the rugged defensive battle,
Dayle Hackbart, Wisconsin quar-
terback, scored his sixth touch-
down of the year as he raced 64
yards with a punt return to give
the Badgers a 7-0 lead. The Bucks
marched the ensuing kickoff 66
yards in 20 plays to tie it up as
Bob White, the block-busting full-
back, blasted over from the 1-inch
line.
Purdue Staves off ND
SOUTH BEND-Purdue scored
three times within seven minutes
in the third quarter yesterday and
then held off a late Notre Dame
aerial surge to take a 29-22 foot-
ball victory.
Jarring Bob Parus, 200-pound
junior fullback, punched three
Purdue touchdowns as the Boiler-
makers defeated the Irish for the
third time in the last five years
and boosted their season mark to
4-1.
But Notre Dame kept the rain-
drenched crowd of 59,563 on its
feet with a typical Fighting Irish'
comeback, scoring 15 points in the
final quarter of the regionally tele-
vised game.
Indiana Edges Miami
BLOOMINGTON, Ind.-Indiana
stepped out of its league and into
its class yesterday, beating Miami
of Ohio, 12-7, on two pass inter-
ceptions and a touchdown toss
from Tom Kendrick to Ron Miller.
The cellar team of the Big Ten
found its hands full with the Mid-
American Conference footbally
leaders but had the edge in man-
power, passing and pass defense.
Pass interceptions set up the
Hoosiers' first touchdown and
stopped the Redskins as they were
pounding downfield toward a pos-
sible winning touchdown with time
running out,

AVictory. . . But...
OACH BENNIE OOSTERBAAN was pleased yesterday afternoon.
His team won a Big Ten football game. It wasn't an impressive
ictory-in fact, it wasn't even an impressive game. Despite the fact
that the game was decided by one point and the outcome was in
doubt until the final gun, it wasn't the kind of game that kept the
fans interested. Nevertheless, it was a victory, and it proved a point-
a point that Oosterbaan, the team, and all of the followers of Michi-
gan football had pondered over the past week.
The point-could the Wolverines recover from the 55-24 mauling
Northwestern game them last Saturday, or would they simply fold
up for the rest of the season.
The answer was stated by Oosterbaan: "I was real proud of the
team. They showed no effects of the defeat last week, and they proved
that they could bounce back and play a whining ball game."
From the point of homecoming, and the number of alumni that
were back on the Michigan campus, it was a very important victory.
All of the alumni and the student groups around campus had stood
behind the Michigan team and coaching staff after the humiliating
Northwestern loss. These groups had banked on the fact that Michigan
wouldn't fall apart-it was a tribute to the Michigan tradition, and one
which the Wolverine gridders responded to.
A Big Decision .
IT WAS ANOTHER game that Michigan athletic director H. O.
'Fritz" Crisler played a role in. Oosterbaan must certainly like the
new rule by now, since it has helped the Wolverines win two games.
As in the Southern California game, Michigan led, 20-19, after the
opponents' third touchdown-leaving the Gophers with the same BIG
decision that the Trojans had.
The decision was made-as in the Trojans' case--to gamble. The
Gophers went for two points, and lost the game by one. "It was a
courageous move by Murray Warmath (the Minnesota coach) and his
boys," Oosterbaan said. "It certainly showed that they had the desire
to win-they could figure that in three out of four cases the try for one
point would be good,"
Warmath sadly stated, "We weren't satisfied with a tie-not
against Michigan. Anybody would have gone for the two points when
they are only one behind. It was a chance that had to be taken." It
was a bitter defeat for the Minnesota coach, who had been under
the same pressures from irate alumni and students this last week
that Oosterbaan had faced. It was, perhaps, fate that was to decide
which coach would be "hung" for the second straight week. On the
other hand, Oosterbaan feels that it was the players who decided.
"The game was a real tribute to the kids," he said.

play on a quarterback sneak and
Harper converted.
Minnesota Ties Game
Minnesota was unable to move
until late in the first period, and
then paced by the fine running
of left halfback Bob Soltis and the
fakery of quarterback Jim Reese,
Minnesota was able to move from
its own 42-yard line to score.
.Michigan got its second touch-
down late in the second period
with most of the yardage gained
in a 56-yard pass play from Dar-
rell Harper to Walt Johnson.
Five more running plays
brought Michigan to the Gopher's
one yard line, from where Ptacek
scored his second touchdown on a
quarterback sneak. Ptacek was
forced out of bounds in his at-
tempt to run for the extra points.
On the first play from scrim-

mage in the third period, Harper
engineered his 58-yard touchdown
run. Harper leaped over right
guard, then cut to his left and
raced down the sidelines outdis-
tancing the Minnesota secondary
for the score. Harper converted
and it appeared that Michigan
would win going away.
But the plucky Gophers were
not to be beaten easily. Except for
Harper's run, the Wolverines were
unable to move offensively for the
rest of the game, with Minnesota
maintaining almost complete
dominance.
Harper kicked off and the
Gophers brought the ball back to
their own 23-yard line, where theyj
commenced a 77-yard scoring'
drive in nine plays. Soltis scored
from the one with 3:52 remain-
ing. Gerth's attempted conversion
was wide and Michigan was still
commanding a 20-13 lead,

the extra points failed because of
the rushing of Prahst and George

Yes, Michigan won the game, but one must remember that Minne-
sota-by present record-is the worst. team in the Big Ten. And the
Wolverines played the Gophers even, except for an extra point. Michi-
gan has four more games to go-all rough. Every game is rough for
Michigan this year. Iowa, the next foe, is leading the Big Ten. Illinois
is a surprise team that ranks third. Indiana is the only other team in
Minnesota's class, but that doesn't mean a breather for Michigan.
Ohio State is always tough,
Lots of Work To Do...
T IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT to say that Michigan has a lot of
work to do. The offense rambled again yesterday, much as it did,
against Navy. It was a diversified attack, gaining well both in the air
and on the ground. They began with a sudden spread formation which
Oosterbaan feels was responsible for "shaking up" Minnesota and
allowing Michigan to score first. However, it was the same team that
has failed, all season long, to gain the yards when they are most
important-they still stalled when near the opponents' goal line.
The defense, although not like last week at Northwestern, was
still bad. The fact that Minnesota outgained Michigan, especially in
the second half, indicates a definite weakness in the Michigan line.
Up until last week the line was considered Michigan's strong point.
This now deserves great reconsideration. As usual, the pass defense
was poor, but Minnesota's passers were equally bad, completing only
3 of 14 attempts. However, when the 'M' line got rough, the Gophers
were able to pull out of third- and fourth-down situations with the
three passes that did hit the mark.
The second half was the same old story. Michigan didn't play the
game all the way. It won't work against the future opponents that
Michigan will face. It is no crime if the Wolverines lose the next few
games because they don't have the material, but if they lose because
they don't give all that they have-well, then things just aren't right.
Some Bright Spots ..,.
OUT OF THE DOLDRUMS of success-a slight redundancy-come
a few bright spots. Bob Ptacek, Michigan's senior quarterback who
wasn't supposed to play this week, scored two touchdowns and led the
team for most of the game. After suffering a severe ankle sprain at
Northwestern, the burly signal caller recovered quickly, and played 5I
minutes and 15 seconds of yesterday's game. The injury isn't com-
pletely healed, however, and began to bother him again in the fourth
quarter. Ptacek drew Oosterbaan's highest praise, "He showed great
leadership, and more than anyone else was responsible for holding
the team together."
The brightest spot for Michigan, however, came soaring over the
Minnesota line after only 22 seconds were gone in the second half and
raced 58 yards for the third and most important of Michigan's touch-
downs-his name, Darrell Harper. The junior halfback, starting his
first game after playing behind Brad Myers earlier in the season, dis-
played the best Michigan running of the season yesterday and also
proved that he can pass.
"He played a fine game," Oosterbaan said. "The fact that he can
pass much better than Myers makes our offense far more diversified.
It gives us an opportunity to pass from both the T and single-wing."
Harper also played one of the best defensive games of any Michigan
halfbacks this year. The only area in which he wasn't as effective as
before was on punts. He had led the nation with a better than 45 yards
per kick average since his terrific boots in the Michigan State game,
but after yesterday the average has dropped to about 40. Of course,
it's a pretty good trade as far as the team is concerned-if he runs 58
yards a play and only kicks 40 the team will not suffer.
