Panitch, Dean Look, Art

back for another year - and all

roles with the loss of Martin.
Wisconsin Challenges
With MSU hampered by Mar-
tin's loss, Wisconsin's talented
juniors may make the strongest
bowl bid. The Badgers scored
three straight wins at the end of
1957 to produce a 6-3 slate for the
season.
The .Badgers, who were the.
league's doormat only a couple
of years ago, compiled this rec-
ord with a predominately-sopho-
more squad.
Wisconsin is one of two Big
Ten teams who will not meet
Michigan this year. The other is
Purdue..
., Iowa Sophomores
Iowa, the third major contend-
er tordethrone the Buckeyes, will
rely on Randy Duncan's passing.,
and another good crop of sophs.
In his group of first-year men,
Coach Forest Evashevski has nine
youngsters who played their high
school football in Michigan.
The Hawkeye's biggest problem
is at tackle, where last year they
had the best in the nation. Alex
Karras, an All America, and see-
and stringer Frank Rigney used
up their eligibility and move into
the pro scene.
A major loss, however, was Dick
Klein, "whb passed up his senior
year to try out with the pros. Mac
Lewis, 289-1b. regular center, has
been switched to fill in the gap.
Other Questionables
Behind the above four teams
and Michigan, the rank and file
is questionable. Minnesota was
rated to be one of the best in the
country last fall but took a com-
plete tailspin and finished with a
4-5 record.
They'll build their attack
around quarterback Phil Reese, a
third team member last year who
looked better than regular Bob-
by cox many times. Billy Martin,
.a star halfback, was ineligible in,
the spring semester and his sta-
tus is doubtful.
Purdue is expected to have its
usual good passing attack, but
the "upset king"--who gave MSU
its only 1957 defeat -- probably
won't, improve much on its .500
record.
Spring training injuries and
graduation losses leave another
perennial upsetter, Illinois, in the
questionable stage. The Illini lost
their best backs, Bobby Mitchell
and Ray Nitschke, through grad-
uation and Tom Hailer on a pro
baseball bonus.'
Cellar Dwellers
Cast again for the cellar are
Indiana and Northwestern, de-
spite the return of many regulars.
The Hoosiers have Coach Phil
Dickens back in good standing
after being penalized for break-
ing recruiting rules, but the talent
troubles continue at Bloomington.
McKeiver Gone
Northwestern will miss its great
halfback Bob McKeiver and out-
standing lineman Al Viola - but
otherwise returns its team intact.

Other candidates at tackle are
Bob Swanson, Willard Hilde-
brand, and Bill Stine.

lettermen at guard. Jerry Marcin-,
iak, Alex Callahan and Mike Fil-
lichio should provide a nucleus
of strength to block up the middle
of the line..
One of the most promising of
all sophomores is guard Dick
Syring. The 200-1b. rookie from
Bay City won the Morton Trophy
after spring training, signifying
the most improved player in the
workouts. It is very p
