At another point, he said point- edly, "when Weiss was running the club, he was the boss, and if I told him I wanted somebody he went right out and got him." Once warmed up, Casey didn't1 let up. By FRED STEINHARDT "They're the closest thing to the Chicago Bears I've ever seen in a college team." This was Michigan end coach Jack Nelson's first comment on the undefeated Minnesota power- house which rolls into Ann Arbor to meet Michigan this Saturday in the battle for the Little Brown Jug. Nelson witnessed Minnesota's victories over Northwestern and, Illinois the past two weeks. The Gophers, who have also beaten Nebraska and Indiana, are the fourth undefeated team Michigan' has met this year. "Minnesota," continued Nelson, "has excellent balance and does, everything, well."

That was their ex- cuse-the best they've got. "I heard from outside, from friends and writers, that they (the front office) didn't like some of the things I was doing, that they didn't like my way of running the, club, that I didn't know managing from beans." Did Stengel think a man of 70 was too old to manage? "It depends on what you can instill in a club," he replied, "and how you run a club. This club, for instance, is a fighting club but it has to be keyed up. The results (pennant in 1960) proved it." Bellino, Matalavage Spark Middies' Football.

I-M FRATERNITY PLAY-OFFS: SAE, ZBT Win First-Round Tilts By BRIAN MACCLOWRY The Air Force may ,have its Titan, the Army its Minuteman, but the Navy football team thinks they can top them both with two goal to goal missles named Joe Bellino and Joe Matalavage. Bellino and Matalavage are not mechanized but rather "theclosest thing to Blanchard and Davis since Blanchard and Davis," ac- cording to Navy plebe coach Jack McQuary. Tough on Opponents McQuary may be a little pre- judiced but it is unlikely whether he will hear any dissenting words from Navy's first five opponents. Bellino and Matalavage have gone over, through, and around the opposition to help Navy defeat Boston College, 22-7, Villanova, 41-7, Washington, 15-14, SMU, 26-7, and the Air Force 35-3. Bellino, the "Mr. Outside" of the duo, is a 5', 10" 185-pound senior who came into his own in last year's game against Army when he scored three touchdowns. All-American? This year he has picked up where he left off against Army. After warming up with four touch- downs against Boston College and Villanova, Bellino stamped him- self for All-American honors against SMU and the Air Force. Agaiist SMU in the rain Bellino gained 93 of Navy's 157 yards on the ground, quick kicked twice setting up one touchdown, com- pleted his only pass for six yards and a touchdown, and.returned a punt 63 yards to set up another touchdown. down. In the Air Force game Bellino scored from one yard out, from 15 yards. and caught a 25 yard touchdown pass. After the Middies upset Wash- ington, Husky coach Jim Owens commented disgustedly, "He (Bel- lino) makes you look like you don't practice tackling very much." The other half of the Navy touchdown twins is 6', 195-pound fullback Matalavage, who has spent most of the season in Bel- lino's shadow. Hurt in the opener against Bos- ton College Matalavage came back against SMU to gain 56 yards in ten carries, including a 30 yard touchdown run. He also scored one of the touchdowns that Bel- lino didn't against the Air Force. Into High Gear Navy's touchdown combination is just beginning to swing into nigh gear for the first time. Last sea- son, Matalavage's first as a starter, found Bellino injured most of the year. This season Bellino has been fit but Matalavage has been hobbling. But with both fit now and no unbeaten teams left on the sche- dule Rose Bowl scuttlebutt has been 'heard around Annapolis. nois, although first team quarter- back Sandy Stephens scored the winning points. They have been a strong second half team all year." Minnesota is anchored by a 225 pound line and a backfield which averages over 200. pounds. Ac- cording to Nelson, their line speed "is close to the Michigan line." Sixth-ranked nationally, the, Gophers are currently the top defensive team in the Big Ten. They lead the conference in in- terceptions and have. given up the least points., They have held Illinois, quarterbacked by Johnny Easterbrook, and Northwestern, led by Dick Thornton, to a total of 10 points. Big Backs The backfield is composed of Stephens, 6'1", 205; Judge Dick- son, 6'2", 210; Roger Hagberg, 6'2", 206; and sophomore Bill Munsey, 511", 195. Munsey is the only starter under 200 pounds.

End George Mans and guard Guy Curtis have apparently shaken off minor knee ailments and are at full strength: By JIM STOMMENj Sharp passing and steadfast de-, fense marked action in the Sociali Fraternity "A" football action yes-' terday, as Sigma Alpha Epsilon1 and Zeta Beta Tau rolled to vic- tories in the first round of the first-place playoffs. The strong passing arm of Jack Mogk was the chief weapon in1 the diversified SAE attack as they shut out Chi Phi, 18-0. Mogk pass- ed for two of the SAE counters and ran for the other. He made three clutch interceptions to choke off three Chi Phi drives. First TD Pass to Jones Mogk's first TD toss was gath- ered in by Joe Jones, who went over for the score. Mike Ratter- man was on the receiving end of a 40-yard Mogk aerial that result- ed in SAE's second TD. Then, when all of his receivers were covered, Mogk showed his versatility by' running 10-yards for the final score. An aroused Chi Phi defense stopped each extra point attempt, and managed to hold the SAE of- fense to 18 points, while seeing four of its own drives snuffed out by pass interceptions. ZBT Edges SPE Zeta Beta Tau edged Sigma Phi Epsilon, 20-16, using balanced scoring and a good defense to keep in the running for the first- place playoff championship. ZBT was led by the quarterbacking and extremely fine passing of Mike Kukas. Kukas threw three touchdown passes, to Les Benet, Norm Mos- cow, and Harley Kripke. Dan Stone scored the extra point for ZBT. George Fead led the Sigma Phi Epsilon' attack with 14 points. Jim Park scored the extra point. Delta Tau Delta rolled over Lambda Chi Alpha, 30-6, in the only other first-place playoff of the day. Lars Anderson, John Hoos, and Bob Pierce cou tered eight points each for the Delts, and Ray Ross chipped in with six. Chi Psi Wins In a second-place playoff game, Chi Psi downed Phi Sigma Delta, 16-6. Chi Phi drew first blood, scoring on a 50-yard pass play, Tom Watson to Verne Istock. The alert Phi Sig defense broke up the extra point pass. Moments later, Watson inter- cepted a pass, then, on the ensuing play, calmly stepped back and fir- ed another scoring aerial to Istock, who was all alone in the end zone. The extra point failed, and the first half ended, 12-0. Phi Sigma Delta scored early in the second half on a pass from Gil Aher to George Fink. The aroused Chi Psi defense foiled the extra point attempt. The game was put out of reach in the closing min- utes as Mike Hammond and Jim Weber caught the PSD quarter- back in the end zone for safeties. Close Game Kappa Sigma edged Delta Sig- ma Phi, 20-12, in a close second- place playoff game of the day. Bob Dill, Terry Pakela, and Bruce Gordon all scored 6 points each, and Jerry O'Shaughnessy added' two for the victors. Sigma Chi rolled over Phi Sig- ma Kappa, 28-0, in another sec- ond-place game. In a third-place playoff game, Alpha Sigma Phi shutout Phi Kap pa Psi, 14-0. Jim Damn scored eight and Sandy Stewart contri- buted six to the Alpha Sigma at- tack. ' Shutouts Shutouts were scored in the re- maining two social fraternity games. In a third-place tilt Delta Kappa Epsilon downed Tau Kap- pa Epsilon, 12-0, and Tau Epsilon Phi edged Alpha Kamp Lambda, 8- 0, in a fourth-place playoff. Triangle forfeited their fourth- place game to Alpha Epsilon Pi. In independent action Gom- berg's Olded Element downed AFIT, 8-0, Trust edged Evans Scholars by the same score, and Nakamura rolled over ASCE, 28-0. In other games the Canadiens romped over the NADS, by the score of 30-0, the Hawaiians edged Owen, 14-12, and Frederick shut- out CMS, 14-0, in a hard-fought game that ended the night's games.
