THE MICWHIGANV DA!tV derans Bolster Michigan Tech Offense THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 30, SEND APPLICATIONS TO PASEDENA: Only One Bowl Vacanc Left By ED HEISER '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. By JIM BERGER 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 for him. ! handsome vest fron our vtist ColleCi on. MOST VALUABLE PLAYER-Michigan Tech center Gerry Sulli- van has been selected twice as the Huskies most valuable player. Sullivan and his Tech teammates will invade Ann Arbor Friday and Saturday for Michigan's home opening series. NBA, NHL ACTION: Canadiens, Leafs Tie; Hawks Win Wt I AMR By The Associated Press 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- "Keep A-Head of your Hair" We specialize in " PERSONALITY CUTS " CREW.-CUTS " FLAT TOPS " PRINCETONS try- THE DASCOLA BARBERS near Michigan Theatre 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.

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. tackle, Ron McCleese, Roseville, Michigan. They call Henderson "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.
