Morale Uncertain The Wolverine morale question remains uncertain. After the crushing loss to Michigan State, the Michigan squad came roaring back to defeat a rugged Purdue eleven, 16-14. Coming back the second time may prove to be a harder psychological task. Eliott is tacitly optimistic about the Wolverine chances. Again this year, Duke relies on a passing offense,'with juniors Gil Garner and Walt Rappold shar- ing the quarterbacking duties. The Blue Devils have picked up 753 yds. and seven touchdowns in the air for six games. Although Rap- pold was rated the number one man in the signal caller's slot at the first of the season, Garner has rapidly developed with a 72 per cent chucking average. Ground Attackf But on the ground, the Duke team has been just as effective. They ground out 254 yds. in a 17-6 victory over North Carolina State last week and have a cumulative total of 876 yds.

Duke Outweighed On the line, the Durham start- ers average less than 200 lbs., whereas the Wolverines tip the scales at 222 per man. But the Blue Devils have been outweighed in every contest they have played this season. Guy Curtis, 215-lb. senior will replace Schopf at right tackle for Michigan.

In championship play, Biochem- istry outplayed Cooley Laboratory 8-0. Chemistry won a nearly equally-played battle with Zoology 1-0 in overtime. In the only other scheduled game Medical Center won by forfeit over Business Ad- ministration. I-M touch football games are played regardless of the weather. This rule was not broken yesterday even though the weather condi- tions included driving cold rain and temperatures falling into the thirties. Threaten To Score Biochemistry threatened to score several times in the first half, but the Cooley Laboratory men shoved them back every time. The Bio- Chemistry men threatened to score from the Cooley one-yard line on fourth down and ten seconds re- maining in the first half. On the final play of the half, Huber War- ner passed to Vern Schrich for the winning touchdown. Schrich bare- ly crossed the goal line as he caught the pass and fell across the line. Warner passed to Schrich for the extra point. Pays Of" Chemistry's superior passing paid off in the final analysis when a pass play ended in Cooley Labora- tory territory in overtime play. According to I-M rules, the team that advances into the other team's territory after eight downs, four for each team, wins in over-' time play.

Duke is two deep in veterans at every position and should be able to make up for the weight disad- vantage by alternating linemen. Speedy defensive backs should pose threats to Wolverine Dave Glinka's aerials. Losses Similar The two losses to Coach Bill Murray's team closely parallel Michigan's two defeats this sea- son. The Blue Devils were crush- ed by Georgia Tech's powerhouse, 21-0, after Duke miscues set up early Tech scores. The next week, the Clemson Tigers upset Duke, 17-6, capitalizing on a Duke fum- ble. Besides the victory last Satur- day over North Carolina State, Duke holds decisions over South Carolina, Virginia and Wake Fbr- est.. AT COLUMBUS: Iowa-Ohio State Game Tops Big Ten Weekend MEN TO WATCH-Michigan's Bennie McRae and Duke's Mark Leggett figure to be the men to watch in today's game. Both these boys have shown speed and both loom as breakaway threats. COLLEGE ROUNDUP: Ivy League Holds Spotlight By JIM BERGER The contrasting offenses of Iowa and Ohio State clash today to highlight Western Conference football this weekend. The other games have Michi- gan State at Minnesota, Indiana at Northwestern, and Purdue at Illinois. Michigan hosts Duke in the only non-conference contest. Typical Attack The hosting Buckeyes boast a typical Woody Hayes attack. Full- back Bob Ferguson is the man to watch. The Hawkeyes, on the oth- er hand, have a passing offense built around quarterback Matt Szykowny. Ohio State has an undefeated record with one tie. They are tied with Michigan State and Minne- sota for the top spot in the Big Ten. Iowa was shocked last week- end by Purdue and the weather. The Spoilermakers, aided by a downpour, shut out the Hawkeyes, 9-0. Wide Open Today's game figures to be a wide-open scoring contest with. Ferguson and the other bruising OSU backs ripping holes in the weak Iowa line while Szykowny flings aerial bombs for the Hawk- eyes. If the Hawkeyes lose, they can say goodbye to any Big Ten Championship or Rose Bowl ap- pearance, and if the Buckeyes lose, they will be tied with the Hawkeyes and give Michigan State an undisputed lead. Spartans-Gophers This brings up the other vital Western Conference game, Michi- gan State at Minnesota. The Gold- en Gophers, after a thrilling last- minute victory over Michigan last weekend, will certainly not be down for the Spartans. As a mat- ter of fact, it is rumored that this Minnesota team is as good as last year's Conference Champion team. They've got the number one quarterback in the conference, Sandy Stephens,: an undisputed one .man team. Stephens current- ly leads the conference in total offense; he has scored 30 points himself and has thrown five touchdown passes. Stephens, Plus In additionsto Stephens, the Gophers have three other backs who have averaged more than four yards per carry. But Michigan State is the number one team in the country. Only one touchdown has been scored on them in five games, and the Spartans boast a second string backfield as fast and as versatile as their first. George Saimes, a candidate for All-American honors, is not even starting for the loaded Spartans. There is no need to mention the line. Names like Budde, Behrman, Brandstatter, Sanders, and Man- ders still make Michigan fans shudder. Additional Factor However, there is one major factor that cannot be discounted. The Spartans always manage to lose at least one game a year. Sometimes there is no reason for it, but it just happens, and Min- nesota has certainly got the goods to do it today. Indiana, winless in conference games this season, will probably remain winless as of this after- noon. Northwestern, without out- standing fullback Bill Swingle, made one of the upsets of the year, defeating Notre Dame last weekend while the Hoosiers were being plowed under by Michigan State, 35-0. Purdue, with its gifted sopho- more quarterback, Ron DiGravio, will probably have no trouble with Illinois. Last weekend, the injury battered Illini came close to win- nin gtheir first game of the sea- son. After its stunning upset of Iowa, Purdue will enter the game in much the same situation as Northwestern, and the results should be similar. Hornung Fit For Service CHICAGO (P) - Halfback Paul Hornung of the Green Bay Packers was found physically fit for Army duty yesterday but will not report until Nov. 14, enabling him to play two more National Football League games. Hornung, the league's scoring champion the last two years, suc- cessfully underwent a series of tests at Great Lakes Naval Train- ing Station this week. He was ordered to report for duty at Fort Riley, Kan., and will join the 896th Army Engineers Company. In One Ear, by Brian MaeClowry A Vote for McRae d NOT USUALLY one to be pessimistic about these things, but f only one team shows up at the Stadium this afternoon you say I told-you so. It's not that I think we can't beat Duke, just that I think it'll take eleven men to do it. Poor Bump ott. He loses a last minute heartbreaker to Minnesota and now to face Duke with an injury list that looks like a press release University Hospital.1 Guard Lee Hall, tackle Jon Schopf, and fullbacks Ken Tureaud I Bill Tunnicliff are all doubtful for the Blue Devil encounter. I for a while after the Minnesota game I wasn't sure if Elliott ild have halfback Bennie McRae either. It was McRae's last quarter fumble that set up the Gophers' winning score. I never knew there were so many ex-Michigan fans until last Saturday night. One wanted to trade McRae for a future draft choice. Another volunt- teered that Bennie should volunteer-for the Army. A third wanted to exile him to Michigan State. These guys were really unstrung. Certainly If the Minnesota game proved anything it's that tball fortunes can change rapidly. After the Purdue contest McRae ld have been elected Student Body president. After the Min- ota game he wasn't even sure if he'd make the traveling squad- ing home. inest Seson... CTUALLY BENNIE is having his finest season. Without him we could have kissed the Purdue game goodbye and the UCLA I Army runaways would undoubtedly have been closer. And pite his unfortunate fumble last Saturday, he was still the and best player on the field, next to Sandy Stephens. Minnesota I to be McRae's finest def -ive game, a phase of football you 't hear too much about th days. Bennie says he would like to play pro football, but at 172 lbs doesn't know if he has the size. For three years he's proven'he the ability. This year he's proved he has the determination. seen him barrel into lineman 70 lbs heavier than he is and up running when they didn't get up at all. Bennie is one of the who uses his helment for something besides protecting his head. During his sophomore and junior years, McRae used to try to hurdle opposing players. Now he just likes to think of football as a game of gridiron "chicken." Only in this case instead of cars you use your helment and somebody else's stomach. As Bennie might say, "It's guaranteed to take your breath away." If the pros do take a chance on McRae it'll probably be as a back, a la Tommy MacDonald. With his great speed I can ialize anyone trying to cover him in the open field. It would be' trying to swat a fly with a slide rule, only in this case if missed it would cost you six points. If you saw the Purdue game you know what I mean. I won't that the Boilermaker defensive backs had a hard time covering inie, but they could have tied his feet together and he would I have been in the open. The Purdue backs thought those wings his helment were for real. efensive Back, Too .4.. T' 6', McRae has the height to be a pro defensive back too. In fact I know about eight teams that could use him in that mneit rio-ht nnw iiging hv some of the scores in the American By GEORGE WANSTALL Mention the Ivy League to the average football fan, and his reply is almost guaranteed to be short. Don't let this brevity of his comment fool you, though. This small Eastern conference contains some of the most intense tradi- tional rivalries in college football. Harvard-Yale gimes trace back nearly 75 years with each addi- tional game as exciting as the as the first. The Dartmouth- Princeton rivalry is also regarded as one of the tops in the East. This week's action should decide the middle of the standings rather than the extremes. Tigers on Top Princeton dominates league play thus far with an unblemished 3-0 mark. Hosting the cellar-dwelling Brown eleven, winless in four starts, should be pretty sure of re- maining undefeated. This year. Princeton, paced by scampering wingback Dan Terpack, finds an Ivy League crown within its grasp, barring unanticipated obstruc- tions. Brown shouldn't be one of them. Battle Continues The battle for second place will continue today with renewed vigor. Columbia claims the honors thus far with a 3-1 record, with its only loss suffered at the hands of the front-running Tigers. Dartmouth, Yale and Harvard are right on the Lions' tail, though with 2-1 marks, and today could very easily pro- duce a new runner-up. Columbia will plt its reputation at stake with a scrappy but injury- ridden Cornell team which is dan- gerously near the bottom with an 0-3 record. Lion fans have been roaring all season with the per- formance of their smooth running backfield and ferocious line which should be a little more than the Big Red can handle. Top Contest The top game among the second place contenders will pit Dart- mouth and Yale. Both teams are near perfect strength, and barring exceptional performances, the game should be a squeaker all the way. The Big Green is out to avenge a 29-0 shutout byYale, and their near perfect defense could spell the margin of defeat for the young and inexperienced Elis. Harvard is not to be forgotten either. The Crimson host an unim- pressive Penn eleven in hopes of keeping their title aspirations alive. The old single wing attack can find no Justification for its exis- tence on the Penn team, and their defense is full of holes. The Crim- -son backs should have a field day, unless, as a unit, the Quakers can muster an effective forward wall. Most in South Again, most of the top college games are to be found in the South, with the big game being without a doubt the annual battle between LSU and Ole Miss. Nei- ther team can ever go into this tilt and definitely predict victory. Even when one is many times better than the other, the weaker team power to rate the game a tossup almost always musters enough by halftime. This year is no ex- ception. Two other great Southern teams, both ranked in the Associated Press Poll, Texas and Alabama, should have a relatively easy time of it. The Longhorns and the Crimson Tide tangle with SMU and Mississippi State, respectively.. Independent Games The battles of the major inde- pendents is paced by the Navy- Notre Dame, Pitt-Syracuse tilts. The Middies seem to be riding on the toe of their great place kick r, Greg Mat)ier, while the Irish de- pend on a well-balanced attack. The Pitt Panthers, in locking claws with the Orangemen, will try to break themselves of the tough luck rut which has deprived them of much of the national glory that their team seemed to merit. Ernie Davis and company disagree, how- ever. Michigan's Willie Heston Returns to Old College SAN FRANCISCO (A) - Willie Heston, once an All-America back, is in town from Florida for home- coming at San Jose. He played guard there three years and another four years as a back on Fielding Yost's point-a- minute teams at Michigan, He's a chippery 83. Noting Heston's seven years of collegiate gridiron activity, one sports writer said Yost "wanted to make sure the lad had a full edu- cation." Heston, who will be Grand Mar- shall in the homecoming parade at San Jose this weekend, feels the off-tackle power slant he executed' back around 1904 for Michigan is still good enough to warrant more attention from the pros. "I like seeing the pros, but they pass too damned much," he said. He watches the games at home on television. Kubek, Grant Called to Duty By The Associated Press MILWAUKEE - Tony Kubek, shortstop of the world champion New York Yankees, was recalled by the Army yesterday.. Relatives said Kubek will re- port to Ft. Lewis, Wash. Authori- ties at the army base, however, could not confirm his arrival. At New York, the Yankees at "All they do is pass, pass, pass," he lamented. "Makes you want to get up and shut the damned thing off. "They'd be better off sticking to off-tackle stuff. Football is a body contact game." Heston, who scored 93 touch- downs for Michigan, went to San Jose when it was a normal school and had 75 boys-plus 700 girls. "Trouble nowadays is kids are too soft," Heston said. "They don't get to play enough. Before they can work up a sweat, in comes the second unit to take their places. Then the third, "When we played in the first Rose Bowl game, Yost brought only 15 players out to the coast. The four subs didn't even get in the game . . . with eight minutes still left to play the referee stopped the slaughter. We were ahead of Stan- ford 49-0." It was a revengeful victory for Yost. He had been fired by Stan- ford as coach in 1900 and went to Michigan-taking Heston with him. ' .E <;
