'hey're probably the toughest
1 we will face all season."
his is what Michigan hockey
ch Al Renfrew had to say
it the upcoming home series
Michigan Tech, and from
h's previous records this is
ainly no overstatement. The
ie team is shaping up to look
the best squad that Coach
n Maclnnes has produced in
five years at Tech.
First Appearance
he Friday and Saturday series
be the first appearance this
on for the Huskies. The Wol-
nes have played on game al-
ly.
he returning core of seven
ors and four juniors has been
tered by nine sophomores who
looked exceptionally sharp
ractice. Losing only two of its
ters from last season, this
's team is extremely fast and
balanced in all positions.
don't know of any weak spot
they've got," admitted Ren-
r. "We're going to have to play,
best in every position just to
a even with them."
The Huskies are putting their
hopes in two rookie goalies, soph-
omores' Gary Bauman and Phil
McVittie. Both have been very im-
pressive in practice and the one
position that has been a problem
for Tech in the past few seasons
seems to be well filled.
Maclnnes is reported as saying,
"A continuation of this caliber of
net minding could give the Husk-
ies a tremendous lift." As yet
Maclnnes has not definitely de-
ci'ded which goal tender will spart
the season with Michigan.
Tough Defense
Tech's defense, which was one
of the best in the WCHA last'
year, again is based on the nu-
cleus of veteran seniors Henry
Akervall, Elov Seger, and Albert
Merlo.
Along with these regulars are
two rookies, Bob Palante and
Norm Wimmer, who have been
outstanding in practice working
as a unit. All of the defense is ex-
pected to see much action in the
opening game.
Up on the forward wall the
Huskies show some of the best
men that they've had in a long
time. Centering the front line will
be Captain Gerald Sullivan, twice
picked as the Most Valuable Play-
er of the team. Playing on the
first unit with him will be junior
John Ivanitz and sophomore Gene
Rebellato.
Fast Break
This starting line is backed up
by two more units each showing
the same fast breaks and deadly
accuracy as the first. Oddly
enough,Sullivan is the slowest of
the top nine forwards.
MacInnes was somewhat con-
cerned by the fact that two-year
veteran Don Lauriente had to give
up hockey this year due to a knee
injury suffered last season that
has not responded properly. j
Anxious To Play
After a month of practice, the
Huskies are anxious to play and
Coach MacInnes stated that, "Our
biggest need right now is for a
game." Tech is eagerly looking
forward to their' opening encoun-
ter with Michigan and will be all
out to end their four game losing
streak on Wolverine ice.
The Huskies are rated evenly
with Michigan by the Associated
Press and the University of Den-
ver is the pre-season favorite to
again take the WCHA title. Tech
will be all out to start a success-
ful season this weekend.

Except for the Rose Bowl, the
rest of the post season bowl games
are all decided.
UCLA, representative of the Pa-
cific coast Big Five Conference,
won the host berth in the Rose
Bowl last weekend with its vic-
tory over Southern California.
However, the number one and
number two teams in the nation
have both made themselves un-
available for participation in the
classic.
Tide Takes Sugar Bid
The Alabama Crimson Tide,
currently the top team in the na-
tion on the Associated Press poll
and considered a top candidate for
the Pasadena classic voted to ac-
cept a bid to the Sugar Bowl. The
bid has not arrived as yet but
there is little doubt that it will
come.
Ohio State, the number two
team on the AP poll and the top
team on the United Press Inter-
national poll, refused to accept
the bid. OSU's powerful faculty
council voted Tuesday not to al-
low Woody Hayes' undefeated
Conference champions to go to
the bowl.
With the Buckeyes" refusal
there are lots of speculations as
to the Pasadena bound team. The
team will most likely come from
the Big Ten and Minnesota, Mich-
igan State and Purdue have all
expressed a strong desire to go.
Coloradovs. LSU
The Orange Bowl was decided
last weekend. Colorado will op-
pose Louisiana State. Colorado,
currently ranked sixth in the AP
poll, still has one more game on
their schedule. They play the Air
'Force this Saturday. LSU, the
number three team in the nation,
finished its schedule.
The Cotton Bowl looms as one
of the outstanding of all the New
Year's Day games. Texas and Mis-
sissippi, the participants, bothI
shared the spotlight at one time
during the season as the nation's
number one team. However, both
were upset; Ole Miss by LSU and
Texas by TCU.
Arkansas vs. 'Bama
The other Jan. 1 game, the Su-
gar Bowl, will have Arkansas, tied
with Texas for the Southwest
Conference, pitted against Alaba-
ma. The Crimson Tide has one
obstacle in its path for a perfect
season, traditional rival Auburn.
The Gator Bowl will have Geor-
gia Tech against Penn State. Penn
State, winner of the Lambert tro-
phy symbolic of the East's best,
will be led by quarterback Galen
Hall and All-American end Bob
Mitinger.
Syracuse will oppose Miami
(Fla.) in the Liberty Bowl, and
Kansas will play Rice in the Blue-
bonnet Bowl.
The last Bowl was decided yes-
terday as Baylor accepted a bid
to play Utah State in the Gotham
Bowl.
OPEN MONDAY AND FRIDAY TILL 8:30

MOST VALUABLE PLAYER-Michigan Tech center Gerry Sulli-

and Saturday for Michigan's home opening series.

TORONTO-Bob Pulford slam-
med home a goal at 11:01 of the
third period last night and gave
the Toronto Maple Leafs a 2-2 tie
with the Montreal Canadiens.
The deadlock left the teams tied
for first place in the National
Hockey League.
It was a goaltenders' battle all
the way as the clubs raced from
end to end throughout the game
only to be frustrated by Toronto's
Johnny Bower and Montreal's
Jacques Plante.
Thetie left the Leafs undefeated
in the 10 games they've played at
home this season with eight vic-
tories and two ties on home ice.
The teams meet again in Mon-
treal tonight in another attempt
to break the first-place deadlock.
Each has 28 points, two ahead of
the New York Rangers.
Plante was called on to make
35 stops and Bower 27, many of
them dangerous, and either club
could have taken a big margin
without their spectacular work.
Montreal started off fast, scor-

ing the first goal and holding a
slight edge over Toronto until
the Leafs came to life in the
second period.
Toronto roared back with a
feriocious attack that netted them
.only one goal thanks to Plante's
work. At ose point, when Leafs
were one man short through a
triping penalty to Frank Mahov-
lich, Toronto carried the play and
almost scored twice.
CHICAGO-Bobby Hull's three-
goal performance paced the Chi-
cago Black Hawks to a 7-4 victory
over the Boston Bruins in a slop-
pily played National Hockey
League game last night.
The victory boosted the defend-
ing Stanley Cup champions's hold
on fourth place to three points
over the idle Detroit Red Wings.
Two of Hull's goals came on 50-
foot smashes from the blue line
which simply handcuffed Boston
rookie goalie Don Head, who
yielded the Hawks the most goals
they've scored in a single game
this far this year.
Hull's first tally, which tied the
score at 1-1 in the first period,
was scored after the blond strong
man had threaded his way through
the Boston defense and let fly from
five feet away.
The three goals for Hull, a 22-
year-old veteran in his fifth sea-
son, boosted his season's total to
nine.
Stan Miketa was the Hawks' sec-
ond best pointmaker with two
goals and an assist.
CINCINNATI-Syracuse fought
down a Cincinnati uprising in the
first period last night with high-
level scoring from Dave Gamble
and Johnny Kerr nailed down a
136-122 National Basketball Asso-
clation victory.
The Nationals hustled up an
11-point halftime lead sparked by
24 points from Gamble, who
wound up best for the winners
with 30.
Cincinnati, plagued by a ragged
offense, tried twice in the last two
periods to overtake the nats, but
got no closer than four points
back.
Wayne Embry, hampered by a
bone spur on his left heel, was still
best in scoring for Cincinnati with
33 points.
Kerr rang up a dozen points in
the final quarter helping Syracuse
keep a comfortable lead, and was
the Nats' second best with 27.

Indicted
In Cage Fix
NEW YORK -) - Pale and
shaken, 28-year-old gamblerAaron
Wagman pleaded guilty yesterday
to a sweeping indictment naming
him as a master fixer in recent
college basketball scandals.
He could receive sentences to-
taling 370 years and fines up to
$370,000.
The move came as a surprise at
the start of his trial on 37 counts
of bribery and one of conspiracy.
He entered a plea of guilty to all.
Ashen faced as he stood in
court, Wagman told general ses-
sions Court Judge Joseph A. Sara-
fite that he had been promised
nothing by anyone as a condition
for his move. The judge accepted
the plea and set Jan. 10 for sen-
tencing.
There was no indication as to
what prompted Wagman, who
gave his occupation as a salesman,
to take the unexpected step.
Upon his indictment last April,
Dist. Atty. Frank S. Hogan said
Wagman had bribed nine players
of five colleges and universities to
cut down on their teams' margins
of victory.
Hogan said the payments ran
to as much as $1,500 a player, and
totaled $14,250. Many of the fix
attempts during the past. two
seasons were successful, Hogani
said.
Atthe 19th LRole
with Fred Steinhardt
Add another name to Michigan halfback candidates for 1962. Ken
Mike, the most sought-after schoolboy in Michigan in the fall of 1958,
spent the past season working out with the freshmen. The 6'1", 190-
lb. Mike suffered a freak knee injury in 1959 spring practice and did
not work out with the freshmen that fall. He won a letter in tennis in
1960 and dropped out of school last November. If his knee holds up,
he is eligible for two seasons of varsity competition.
Freshmen to watch for 1962 include lanky end John Henderson,
Dayton; quarterback Bob Timberlake, Fraklin, Ohio, and 240-lb.

"Honey Hands" ... Rumored headed for Michigan: Pete Hollis, 6'1",
185-lb. all-State quarterback from Detroit Redford, Ken Mike's alma
mater.
Bowl predictions: Rose Bowl-any team east of the Mississippi
over UCLA, Sugar Bowl-Arkansas over Alabama, Orange Bowl-
LSU over Colorado, Cotton Bowl-Mississippi vs. Texas, a tossup
Speaking of Minnesota, I won't be completely at ease until I
am CERTAIN that they will not go to the Rose Bowl. I would
have to pick them over UCLA, but I wouldn't be the least bit sur-
prised if they fizzled like they did last year. It isn't nice to belittle
Wisconsin's fine effort against the Gophers, but how many people
remember the score of the Iowa-Wisconsin game? For those who
don't, Iowa beat 'em 47-15.
Now that football season is virtually over, thoughts turn to
sweaty gymnasiums, suspicious-looking men with wads of crisp $100
bills, and the incessant tooting of whistles. You guessed it-basketball
season is almost upon us. And, the knowledgeable basketball fans who
are already betting on Cincinnati to beat out Jerry Lucas and Ohio
State fornational honors may be eating their words by March. True,
Cincinnati which surprised the Bucks in the NCAA finals returns 6'9"
Paul Hogue, Tom Thacker, and Tony Yates and adds two heralded
sophs in 6'8" defensive ace George Wilson and 6'5" Ron Bonhai, a
former Indiana high school scoring champ.
But the word out of Columbus is that Ohio State will be "better
without Siegfried." Buckeye boosters admit that while Larry Sieg-
fried was most certainly one of the top guards in the country, he
slowed up OSU's fast 6reak. They claim that a faster Ohio State will
run every team into the floor. If Wilson and Bonham perform well,
and there is no guarantee that both will, Cincinnati may still be hard
pressed to keep its crown from the Bucks.
For the past two seasons, Dave DeBusschere of Detroit has made
more than a few all-America teams. But he has been consistently
rated behind several players who simply are not as good. Two who
come to mind are Big Ten scoring champ Terry Dischinger of Purdue
and slick Chet Walker of Bradley. Dischinger, who admittedly has the
finest moves around, has prospered on a team which does not have
another player who can consistently hit the rim. Walker has had the
advantage of playing on a nationally-ranked team.
Neither could hope to rebound with DeBussehere who packs
225 lbs. on his 6'5" frame. He was the only player including Lucas
and Oscar Robertson to rank in the top ten in both rebounding
AND scoring as a sophomore, and he pulled down more rebounds
than anyone last year.
In Columbus they say that Lucas could be a 40 point man if he
didn't play on such a fine team. The same principle applies to De-
Busschere. For the past two seasons, he has had to divide the loot
with Charlie North, an exciting performer who was a 20 point man
in his own right. (North was an unfortunate victim of the basket-
ball scandals. Unfortunate because the game which he was accused
of fixing was his finest of the year. He scored 25 points with Lucas
guarding him.) Now that DeBusschere is in the same position as
Dischinger, watch him go. There are not two better college players.
