THE MICHIGAN DAILY

In _ One Ear
by Brian MacClowry
SBlue Cross)
F YOU'RE EVER down at Ferry Field watching football practice
mention my name-and then drop everything and run like hell.
I'm about as popular as Benedict Arnold at a DAR meeting. I mean
Pete Smith is better liked than I am-and he can run faster too.
And all because I offered some constructive criticism of our football
team last Sunday.
I understand the feature attraction at the pep rally tonight
is the Roadrunners playing "Let's Twist Again" while the football
team obliges-the chief instrument being, my head. They wanted
to have a bonfire too, but the Deans aren't going in for human
sacrifices anymore.
I'd transfer to Michigan State if I thought I could pass
the entrance exam. But I've never called hogs before. In
fact I'd buy another pair of glasses if I thought it would
do any good. But one pair, two pair, it doesn't make any
difference if you can't see in the first place.
I need a haircut but I'm not about to go to the barber shop.
I remember Albert Anatasia's last haircut. If I recall they not
only parted his hair they parted his head too. By the time the
football team gets done with me I'll look like an advertisement for
the March of Dimes. By Monday morning I should be able to tell
you how It feels to be maimed by the 1961 Michigan varsity.
Blue Cross won't touch me with a 'ten foot pole. Red
Cross will have to. I couldn't get a policy now if I bought
the company. If feeling gets any higher the Daily is going
to have to start printing obituaries-well one anyway. The
only way I'll get my diploma is Magna Cum Later.
Braves the Elements...
BUT EARLY THIS WEEK, courage in hand, sunglasses on, and
sporting a Go Blue badge, I went down to the Field of Ferry
to see if I could find Henry Hatch, for 42 years Michigan equipment
manager and as much an institution as the University Itself. Either
Henry doesn't read the Daily or he has a sense of humor, because
he consented to talk to 'me.
If Henry isn't Michigan's number one fan, I don't know who
is. He's seen every home football game since 1919 and every game,
home and away, since 1931. He's passed out more equipment than
Carter has pills, and to some great athletes along the way.
Two of the greatest, he says, were Tom Harmon and
Bennie Oosterbaan. Oosterbaan won nine letters at Michigan
and Harmon provided Hatch with his fondest memories.
"Besides being a great runner Harmon was quite a placekicker
too," he reminisces. "But with the score tied 14-14 in the 1939
game against Ohio State Tom faked a field goal and then took
out three guys with one block as Fred Troske skirted end for the
winning touchdown.
"The following year was the first time we ever traveled by air
as a team and Harmon made, it a memorable occasion," he con-
tinued. "He took the opening kickoff against the University of
California and ran 90 yards for a touchdown. He kicked the extra
point and then went up -field and kicked off."
New Helments Introdued ...
IN 1938 HATCH was in on the ground floor of another Michigan
tradition. New head coach Fritz Crisler instituted the now famous
multiple striped Wolverine helments. "Before we used to wear solid
black helments," Hatch recalls. "And sometimes we'd switch to
yellow or white lust to be different."
y" Henry doesn't think the quality of the game has changed,
since the Fielding Yost era, but he admits it's become more
complicated. "The T-formation has had a lot to do with it,"
he says. "The blocking is more complicated and there're
more defenses to learn."
The boys have changed more than the game, he'll tell you.
"They're not as tough as they used to be because things come
easier now. 'In 1920 if two kids on the team had .a car it was
something' The coaches try to overcome this' now with more run-
ning and calisthenics. Iii the old days they'd just run up and down
the sidelines to get ready."
The 1961 Wolverines hope to do a little running against Purdue
tomorrow themselves. "I think we can bounce back against Purdue,"

Red Wings

Over 13ruins
By The Associated Press
DETROIT-Vic Stasiuk scored
three final period goals last night
as the Detroit Red Wings won
their first victory of the new Na-
tional Hockey League season, a
7-3 decision over the hapless Bos-
ton Bruins.
The first two goals of Stasiuk's
hat trick came within a 62-second
span in the first two minutes of
the period and presented Detroit
with a 5-1 lead before his ex-
teammates rallied back on goals
by Cliff Pennington and Jerry
Toppazzini.
But Stasiuk relieved the pres-
sure with his third goal at 15:10
and Eddie Littenburger added an-
other insurance tally.
The rookie r dominated Bruins
now have five losses and one tie
and goalie Don Head has been
beaten 32 times in the six games.
Bill Gadsby, Alex Delvecchio and
Leo Labine fired Detroit to a 3-I
lead in the first two periods'.
In another NHL game, the New
York Rangers boosted their league
lead to three points by beating
the Chicago Black Hawks 4-2.
The triumph was the fourth of
the season for the surprising Ran-
gers, who have lost twice. Chicago
now has one victory, one loss and
two ties.
Earl Ingarfield provided the
Rangers with a lead they never
relinquished at 7:15 of the first
period when he took passes from
Andy Bathgate and Harry Howell
and beat Chicago goalie Glenn
Hall from 15 feet out. The Ranger
lead went to 2-0 on a goal by
Camille Henry at 17:22 of the
first period before Bronco Hor-
vath hit the Chicagoans' first
tally.

NEW YORK (AP)-The Los An-
geles Lakers defeated the Phila-
delphia Warriors, 118,113, in the
