L ~THE MICHIGAN DAILY uw. yNV I' Meets Indiana in Oosterbaan s Home Finale eek Fourth traight Wm Sgainst IU (Continued from Page 1) ill play for the last time in the tadium are ends Gary Prahst nd Walt Johnson, guard Jerry [arciniak and Al Callahan and enter Jim Dickey. Depend on Ptacek Without Harper's slick running,, he Wolverines will have to de-4 end a great deal on Bob Ptacek's ower plays and his passing. As sual, defense is likely to cause he Wolverines more trouble. However, Oosterbaan and his ides have little idea what to ex- ect in the way of Hoosier of- ense this afternoon. In the first lace. Campbell was the leading round gainer, and the only one rho has run well against Big Ten appositionl. Besides this, Indiana has shown lmost no pass offense all year ong. Thus, without Campbell and assing Michigan may find a eam that they can contain. It as been the fast backs and the assing that has stung the Wol- ,erines continually. The experts are picking Michi- an for a number of reasons. In he first place, they point out hat Indiana has won no away tames this year, and that there sno reason why they should this reek. Second, it is certainly time or the Wolverines to bounce ack. Show Offense Michigan has outgained most 4 the teams they have met this eason, and they have generally hown a better offense. Defensive apses - generally on single long dlays rather than on sustained efensive ineptness-have spelled he difference between victory tnd defeat. An added factor that most of he experts did not have to con- sder earlier in the week is the new coaching shift. Oosterbaan a running the team for two more games, but only two. This means thtone coach is closing a great areer, and another is looking for- ward to what should be another great one. The boys should be out here to win for someone. ELLIOTT TO LEAD GRID TEAM IN 1959: Bennie Appointed to New Athletic Department Post -Daily-Peter Anderson MOMENTS OF GLORY are recalled by Wally Weber (right) with two of his finest proteges, Tommy Harmon and John Herrnstein, as the trio viewed yesterday's practice. Harmon, now a popular radio and television sportscaster, is here for the Indiana game and will cover tomorrow's pro game between Detroit and San Francisco. Northwestern, Purdue in TV Game; Rose Bowl Bound Iowa Hosts OSU (Continued from Page 1) "The University has put football In its proper position," Regent. Eugene Powers said, "and Bennie has upheld this. It would be tragic if the University took the position that coaches must win." New capacity Regent Doan stated that he was "gratified that Bennie can con-; tinue to operate in an important capacity in the University." "If I had any grandsons who' play football, which I do," com- mented Regent Roscoe Bonisteel of Oosterbaan, "I can think of no other coach I'd rather have them play under." p Bonisteel added that "the Re- gents wish Bump the same type of luck and support that the tni- versity has given to Bennie." President Hatcher praised El- liott. "In his playing days he had muchathe same qualities that Ben- nie had and which have endeared him to Michigan," he stated. End of Old Tie H. O. "Fritz" Crisler, Michigan Athletic Director, stated: "After 21 years of close association with Ben in football, it is rather a shock to realize that his request for a reassignment of duties will bring to a close that intimate football relationship. PRO SCENE: Syracuse Nips Detroit DETROIT R) - The Syracuse Nationals fought off a late rally by Detroit and handed the Pistons their second home defeat of the season, 111-109, in a National Bas- ketball Assn. game last night. The Pistons missed three pos- sible game-winning baskets in the last 14 seconds of the game. John Kerr led the Nationals with 30 points. The 6'9" Kerr made three deci- sive baskets in the late stages of the game after the Pistons had tied the score 94-94 with 5:25 to play on two free throws by guard Gene Shue. 'His new duties in the Athletic Department," Crisler continued, "will take advantage of further service and contributions which he can give to Michigan as a laison with alumni, the University family and secondary schools." Pleased ivith Elliott Crisler felt that the selection of 'Elliott was very fortunate. "By nature and experience he has all the fine qualities to be a great coach," the Athletic Director stated. "He is not only a great player, but he has proved himself richly endowed with all of those charac- teristics that are the embodiment of a Michigan man. He is possessed with ambition and industry of the highestorder. It is a real comfort to realize that the future of Michi- gan football is in his hands," Cris- ler concluded.

"As is generally known," he said, "I have for the past three or four years been seriously con- sidering retiring from the head coaching position." Withheld Deelsion Once the decision was made and this was to be his last season he had intended to withhold the announcement until the Ohio State game this November 20. "In view of the recurring ru- mors, however," he added. "I am making the statement now. I am very happy to have further oppor- tunity to serve the University and I shall continue to do my very best." By TOM WITECKI Iowa's newly crowned Big Ten Champions meet last year's titlist Ohio State today to feature a full schedule of conference action. The Rose Bowl bound Hawk- eyes will be seeking revenge for, last year's defeat when the Buck- eyes, led by fullback Bob White, TODAY'S LINEUPS MICHIGAN Prahst Genyk Callahan Dickey Deskins Marcinlak Johnson Ptacek Myers Julian Sisinyak LE LT LG C RG RT RE QB LH R1H FBI INDIANA Aucreman Piccirillo Rabold Aloislo Kerr Corrigan Aveni Hubbart Smith Scott Jones came from behind twice to win,1 17-13. This loss cost Iowa the con-1 ference crown which combined with this year's title would have given them three consecutive Big Ten football championships. In today's contest the Hawkeyes1 will be out to stop White, who last; year as an unknown sophomore ran wild against them, gaining 157 yards in 22 tries. However, White who was an unanimous choice in pre-season All American polls has not been running well in recent games and may prove an easy match for the tough Iowa de- fensive wall. , Eye National Rating Added incentive for the Hawk- eyes is that with an impressive win over the Buckeyes they may move past Louisiana State into the coveted 'number one spot in the national rankings. For Woody Hayes and his squad, a win over Iowa would provide a, bright'spot in an otherwise dis-k appointing season. To win Ohio State will have to stop the tre- mendous Iowa offense which is the nation's best statistic-wise. In a regionally televised con- test, Northwestern will try to bounce back from last week's de- feat at Wisconsin against the Boil- ermakers of Purdue who are third in the Big Ten standings. Offense Leader The Wildcats, led by the Big Ten's total offense leader Dick Thornton, will be seeking their fourth conference win after losing all six contests last year. Purdue will be lacking the serv- ices of their star fullback Bob Jarus who has scored half of its touchdowns this fall. Michigan State, rated one of I1 5PORT-WHYS Twilight HE TWILIGHT of the greatest athletic career in Michigan history is drawing nigh. Today Bennie Oosterbaan will coach his last game Michigan Stadium, the great structure that he helped to dedicate a third year All-American 31 years ago. A week from today he will de his last Wolverine team through the 100th game as head football ich. Then he will withdraw from the "M" gridiron after 34 seasons complete dedication to the athletic and academic traditions of the iversity of Michigan. Bennie has been a very successful coach. In 11 years at the chigan helm he has an overall record of 63 victories, 31 defeats and r ties. He has won twice as many games as he has lost. In these years he has had only one losing season until this fall; he has one undefeated year, and two undisputed Big Ten titles plus a are of another. In his first year as head coach he was named "Coach the Year." To go back further yet, Bennie as a student has been heralded the greatest athlete in Wolverine annals. He was a three-year [-American as a football end, and has been named to every all-time -America in this capacity. He also played basketball, and is the y Michigan cager to ever lead the Big Ten in scoring for a season. baseball Ray Fisher, who retired just last June after having ached the "M" diamondmen for 39 seasons, calls Bennie the greatest tural player he has ever coached. the Big Ten's best at the start of the season, will be trying to win its first conference game against the winless Minnesota Gophers. Minnesota will be bolstered by the return of starting left half- back Arlie Bomstad, who has not seen action for four weeks. The injury-ridden Gophers also hope to get service from quarterback Jim Reese and halfback Bob Sol- tis. At Champaign, the Wisconsin Badgers-rated fifth in the nation - will try to hold their second place position in the Big Ten race with a win over improving Illinois. The slow starting Illni have won three out of their last four con- tests and will be shooting for an upset against the powerful Badg- ers. MSU Harriers Take Title; Iowa's Jones Wins First CHICAGO (A') - Iowa's Charles' "Deacon" Jones, N.C.A.A. cham- pion two years ago, finally won his first Big Ten cross country title yesterday. Jones finished some 10 yards ahead of Michigan State's Craw- ford Kennedy in 20:18.0, a good time for unseasonable 70-degree weather which prevailed during the four-mile event in Washing- ton Park. The team title went to Michi- gan State, its seventh in nine Big Ten championship meets. The Spartans scored 43 points, the same as when they won last year. Second in the team standings was Iowa with 59 points, followed by Indiana with 64, Illinois with 77 and Minnesota with 103. Wis- consin and Northwestern compet- ed but lacked full teams. Ohio State, Purdue and Michigan failed to enter. The leading finishers: 1) Jones, Iowa; 2) Kennedy, MSU; 3) Jack Hill, Iowa; 4) James Bowers, Ill; 5) Ronald Long, Ind.; 6) Bill Abele, Ind.; 7) Harold Harris, Ill.; 8) Bill Reynolds, MSU; 9) John Brown, Ill.; 10) John Horan, MSU. 11) Dave Lean, MSU; 12) Bob Lake, MSU; 13) Gene Bontems, Minn.; 14) Stanley Hedges, Ind.; 15) Bruce Trimble, Iowa.

V IS TRULY unfortunate that a man who has done so much for the name of Michigan sports should leave the head coaching posi- in with his head bowed. Bennie has been the victim of circumstances. it circumstances that were aimged to hurt him, or that were in any y foreseen by any members of the athletic department 11 years o when he took over the reins. However, since that date these various ctors have slowly closed in upon him-#nd have shocked him to e point where he must now bow out. No, he hasn't been forced out. The decision was his, as it should in the case of any Michigan coach. But it is inconceivable to think at it wasn't "forced" in most senses. The pressures of any large1 llege coaching task are great, and the pressures around Michigan .ve slowly mounted over the past 11 years. The Wolverines have 3wly declined in grid prominence, as Bennie's first years were his st, and the last few have been disastrous. This decline has been due entirely to the growing strength of the g Ten, the various academic and aid standards, and the pressing -blems of Michigan football recruiting. The declining has not been Le to Bennie's coaching techniques, which have in actuality improved er the years and are at present at their best. Howeve,r. it is the an-lost record which causes the growing pressures-pressures from umni, students, and even the athletic department budget that pends on filling Michigan Stadium. .. Of Loyalty... HESE PRESSURES HURT. Bennie loves Michigan, and the thing By IRWIN BOROF Bowl-conscious Louisiana State puts its rating as the number one team in the nation on the line when it goes against Mississippi State tonight. Powerful LSU led by the run- ning of Billy Cannon, the passing of Warren Babb, and the excep- tional line play of Max Fugler and company are heavy favorites over the Maroons. The Tigers post an 8-0 record and in last week's game against Duke, their offense. finally exploded with all its might and mauled the Blue Devils, 50-18. Lose Three Straight Mississippi State meanwhile has been unable to notch a victory for three straight weeks. Third ranked Army takes on Villanova in a warm-up for their annual classic with Navy. Although Villanova has been very impres- sive in posting a 6-2 mark, it is no match for the Cadets, who are second in the nation in total of- fense, second in passing, and fifth in defense. There is, however, a strong possibility of the Middie- minded Cadets being upset as hap- pened in their last meeting in 1951. Still fighting to retain their Southeastern Conference chain- pionship, fourth ranked Auburn crown will leave with the victor. Ranked sixth in the nation, Oklahoma is undefeated in 69 straight conference contests- Mis- souri was not considered in the running until last week when they came from behind to upset Colora- do, 33-9. The experts have rated the Sooners as a two touchdown favorite. Tennessee will play host and probably patsies to seventh ranked Mississippi. Ole Miss, beaten only by LSU, still holds outside hopes' of taking the SEC crown and should find little trouble in getting by the Volunteers. TCU faces Texas in a South- western Conference contest. The Longhorns have a 6-2 record, but have had a hard time unwinding' themselves since they whipped; Oklahoma, 15-14. TCU, the ninth best team in the nation, has lost only to Iowa and is presently lead- ing the Conference. AFA vs. Wyoming The high flying Air Force Aca- demy meets Wyoming in a game which should not cause the tenth- rated Falcons much trouble. Elsewhere in the West the hap- less Pacific Coast Conference will try to come one step closer in determining who will represent it1 at the Rose Bowl. Fighting for the trip to Pasadena are California, Oregon State and Washington State. The Golden Bears will take on Washington while Oregon State meets Stanford and Washington State faces Dick Bass and his Col- lege of the Pacific aggregation. The Ivy League crown may very well be decided with two of the three front runners, Cornell and Dartmoutb, opposing each other while the third, Princeton, meets its arch rival Yale.
