OUTCOME MAY DETERMINE CHAMP:
NU-Wisconsin Battle Highlights Bi
By BILL BULLARD
Michigan's uncrowned national
women's inter-collegiate swimming
champions broke four national
records in defeatink Michigan
State 58-19 yesterday afternoon
at the Women's Pool.
Spartan swimmers broke two
national records in exhibition
events. It was the second Michigan
victory of the season over State.
The Wolverines drowned the Spar-
tans 61-25 at East Lansing a
month ago.
Wolverine Coach Rose Marie
Dawson learned from MSU Coach
Ann Chadwick just before the
meet that there will be a National
Inter-collegiate Women's Meet at
East Lansing on Dec. 1. This will
be the first meet of this kind for
women and Michigan swimmers
will have a chance to live up to
their reputation. Mrs. Dawson's
comment was, "We'll definitely be
there.",
Six of the seven individual
events and both relays were won
by Michigan. In the three exhibi-
tion races, the Spartans set na-
tional records in winning two of
them.
Broke Own Record
For the second straight meet,
Pam Swart broke her own national
record in the 100-yd. freestyle.
She originally set the mark at 59.0
in the first Michigan State meet,
lowered it to 58.7 in a meet last
weekend, and broke it again with
a 58.6 clocking yesterday.
Peggi Wirth set a new national
standard for the 100-yd. individ-
ual medley. In doing so she beat
teammate Suzy Thrasher who also
went faster than the old record
and Spartan Marcia Jones, holder
of the old mark. Miss Jones set
the old record of 1:10.0 in 1960,
swimming for Michigan.
The old champion couldn't keep
up with the blazing pace of the
two Wolverines. Miss Wirth fin-
ished with a 1:08.2 time and Miss
Thrasher was close behind with a
1:09.5.
Miss Swart and Miss Wirth
jointly hold the 50-yd. freestyle
record at 27.2 and while they sat
out that event, resting up for
their latter record-breaking per-
formances, Cynthia Osgood almost
broke their record. Miss Osgood
beat out Spartan Pam Schmidt
by .3 of a second to win the sprint
in 27.8.
Another record just missed be-
ing broken when Miss Thrasher's
time of 29.6 in the 50-yd. butter-
fly was found to be .2 of a second
short of her national record. Jan
Snavely was second with a great
race, only .8 of a second behind
Miss Thrasher.
Sharon Bedford and Mona Di-
Filippo finished first and third
in the 50-yd. breaststroke event.
Miss Bedford touched out State's
Jones by .6 of a second.
In the diving competition Micki
King, who defeated Spartan Lola
Miller by 30 points in their first
encounter, had a close call. Miss
King totaled 111.4 points to 111.1
points for Miss Miller. Wolverine
Linda Lyall was third with 104.2
points.
The only Spartan victory of the
afternoon was that of Chris Klut-
er in the 50-yd. backstroke. Her
time of 29.5 was .2 of a second
off her national record. Donna
Conklin and Pam Swart were sec-
ond and third in 31.2 and 31.3,
respectively.
Other Michigan third places
were picked up by Nancy Wager,
in the 50-yd. freestyle and Jan
Snavely in the 100-yd. freestyle.
Relay Winners
Both Michigan relay teams came
up with record breaking efforts.
In the 200-yd. freestyle relay,
the foursome of Snavely, Osgood,
Wirth and. Swart turned in the
almost unbelievable time of 1:51.0.
Each swimmer averaged .3 of a
second above the national record
The 200-yd. medley relay was
won by the team of Conklin, Bed-
ford, Thrasher and Wirth. The
time of 2:05.0 is a new national
record.
In one of the three exhibition
events, Spartan Kluter set a rec-
ord for the 40-yd. backstroke. She
beat the old mark by .4 of a
second.
The Michigan State 75-yd.rmed-
ley relay team set a new record
in that event, beating Michigan
(Conklin, Thrasher, Osgood) by
.3 of a second.
No record was broken in the
40-yd. freestyle. The first thuee
places were taken by Swart, Os-
good and Wirth.

This week in the Big Ten most
eyes will be focused on two im-,
portant games. Undefeated North-
western takes on the rugged Bad-
gers of Wisconsin, whose only loss
came at the hands of Ohio State.
This game will be played before
a homecoming crowd at Madison.,
It is a must game for both teams.
If Northwestern loses it could be
disastrous, for NU plays only sixI
Big Ten games compared to seven
for Wisconsin.
In the event both teams finish-
edwith one defeat, the crown
would go to Wisconsin. But in or-
der to stay in contention Wiscon-
sin will have to beat Northwest-
ern. This may prove to be a rug-
ged task.
Big Shocker
Northwestern was shocked last:
week by the surprisingly good at-
tack put up by Indiana. They
might not have been up for that
game but you can be sure that
coach Ara Parseghian has had
little trouble getting his boys
ready to combat highly respected
Wisconsin. The Badgers, fresh
from a 34-12 whipping of Michi-
gan, will be up for their home-
coming contest.
The NU eleven are currently
ranked number one by the AP.
They are led by a sophomore star
quarterback Tom Myers who is
the leading passer in the Big Ten.
His favorite target is Paul Flat-
ley, a flanker back, who is the
leading receiver in the Big Ten.
Steve Murphey, the Wildcat's full-
back is the conference's second
leading scorer with 26 points.
Great Year
Wisconsin will be directed by
Ron VandeKelen, a senior who is
having an outstanding year. He is
the Big Ten's second leading pass-
er and a fine runner, ranking first
in total offense. All-American end
Pat Richter has caught five Van-
derKelen touchdown passes and is
just behind NU's Flately for the
top receiver's honors. Halfback
Ron Smith will also be a scoring
threat to say the least. He is the
leading scorer in the Big Ten,
having accounted for 36 points.
The game will be a scorching of-.
fensive battle and the experts
have had much disagreement in
trying to establish a favorite.
Spoilermakers?
The second all-important battle
in the Big Ten race will pit Mich-
igan State against Purdue. Both
teams have been beaten once in
conference competition. Purdue
will most likely have to get along
without their quarterback, Ron
DiGravio, who was hurt Tuesday
during practice. DiGravio practic-
ed Wednesday for a little while
but was not up to full capacity.
There is still some question as to
how much action he will see Sa-
turday. Gary Hogan, Purdue's al-
ternate quarterback has already
shown himself to be a highly
capable passer.
Both of these teams went into
last week's contests undefeated in
Big Ten play but wereaeach up-
set. Illinois broke a 15 game losing
streak when they managed to de-
feat the startled Purdue eleven by
a 14-10 margin.
Michigan State was completely
out-played by a strong Minnesota
team and was beaten 28-7. Michi-
gan State's potent offense was
stopped for the first time since its
Stanford setback. Dewey Lincoln,
George Saimes, and Ron Rubick
provide State with a fine ground
attack.
Purdue will put its tough de-
fens to work. It is second to Min-
minesota in rushing defense. The
gamemay be decided by the line
play. Whether MSU's forward wall
is able to find gaps in the Purdue
defense is the question that may
decide the outcome.
Minnesota will duel with. Iowa
in a third contest. Both teams
pulled off upsets over Michigan
State and Ohio State respectively
in last week's action. Minnesota,
with just one loss, must win this
one to stay in contention. Iowa

Conference titles, bowl bids, and
national rankings are on the line;
today as the college football season,
enters its eighth week.
In the East, Dartmouth is the
only undefeated team, but it has
no bowl aspirations. The Ivy
League doesn't allow its teams to
participate in them. While charg-
ing to the front of the league,;
Dartmouth, has allowed the least;
points of any major college team
in the country, nine. Neverthe-
less; Columbia's fine p a s s e r,,
Archie Roberts, is expected to give
the Dartmouth defense a severe
test.
Orange Bowl Contenders ;
The Orange Bowl traditionally
takes one team from the East, and
the most-mentioned possibilities
are Army and Penn State. Army,
which has lost only to Michigan
in seven games, is host to Okla-
homa State, while Penn State faces
West Virginia.
Alabama, unbeaten in 26
straight games, takes an important
step in defense of its national title
when it entertains Miami (Fla.) in
Tuscaloosa. The game should fea-
ture a lively passing duel between
the Crimson Tide's Joe Namath
and Miami's George Mira. A berth
in the Sugar Bowl is also in line
for Alabama if it can continue its
winning ways.
Mississippi is looking toward the
Sugar Bowl, too, and the Rebels
are not expected to encounter any
difficulty in facing Chattanooga at
Oxford, Miss.
Meanwhile, Duke is seeking to
wrap up the Atlantic Coast Con-
ference title as it meets Maryland
and its fine passer, Dick Shiner.
Georgia Tech, led by triple-threat
star Billy Lothridge, plays Florida
State, in another top game.
Unbeaten but once-tied Texas,
the favorite for the Southwest
Conference crown and the Cotton
Bowl, plays Baylor at Waco, Texas.
Baylor has scored seven touch-
downs in the last two games, has
an excellent passer in Don Trull.
Big Eight Race
In addition to the Big Ten
games, the Midwest schedule for
today centers around the race for
the Big Eight crown and a berth
in the Orange Bowl. Missouri has
the inside track as the only team
now undefeated in the conference,
and is a heavy favorite over Col-
orado. However, Kansas, with
speedy sophomore Gale Sayers
leading the way, and Oklahoma,
which crushed Colorado 62-0 last
week, are still in the picture.
Washington, with the brilliant
Charlie Mitchell, is slightly fa-
vored over a California team which
has shown improvement each
week.

FLASHING THRASHER-Suzy Flasher flashes through the water
at the Women's Pool in the 50-yd. butterfly yesterday. She won the
event but missed breaking her national inter-collegiate record of
.2 of a second. Miss Thrasher's performances helped Michigan de-
feat Michigan State 58-19.
Michigan Sports'History
By GARY WINER
,It was do or die for the Orange
and Blue of Illinois as they trotted
onto the field at Michigan Stadium
October 17, 1946.
Coach Ray Eliot's Illini held a
2-1 conference mark after defeat-
ing a stubborn Wisconsin Badger
team the previous week, 27-21. An-
other loss would topple them into
oblivion as far as all hopes for a
Big Nine title that year were con-
cerned.
On the other side of the field,
mentor Fritz Crisler had his Mich-
igan Wolverines limbering up be-
fore a sellout homecoming crowd
of 85,938. Michigan was rated
eighth in the nation and was tied
with Northwestern for the confer-
ence lead. A victory for the Maize
and Blue would put them in sole
possession of first place as North-
western had a non-conference
game that sunny afternoon.
Michigan had already whipped
two Big Nine foes and its only
imperfection had been a 14-14 tie +
with the Wildcats of Evanston. Il-;
linois probably would field a slight-
ly heavier line and some speedy
backs, but taking everything into
account, the Wolverines' defense
was expected to stop any serious
scoring threats.
All-American 1 alfback Bob
Chappuis, leading offensive player
in the Big Nine, and Jim Brieske,
who thus far had kicked eight
conversion points in nine tries in
conference play, were expected to
play important roles for Michigan.
But Illinois was not without its
stars as they sported Buddy "The
Ebony Express" Young, a speec&5
halfback with a 4.3 running aver-
age per carry, and Perry Moss,
a fine T-formation quarterback.
Who's Got the Ball
Fumbles proved to be the im-
portant factor in this grid classic
-Michigan bobbled the ball no
less than twelve times, but iron-
ically lost the pigskin only once.
The hosts had a scoring threat
stopped in the first quarter by a
fumble and later fumbled twice
more to stop another drive. Later
in the second quarter, with Mich-
igan on the Illinois 24-yd. line,
Chappuis dropped back for a pass,
decided to run, fumbled, and then
watched as teammate Howard
Yerges touched the loose ball just
as it went out of bounds on the
5 yd. line. Just two plays later,
Bob Wiese went over for the tally,
Brieske added the extra point, and
Michigan held a temporary 7-0
lead.
Illinois did not remain idle, how-
ever. Before long they scored on a
75-yd. sustained march. The key
play came on a Moss to Bill Heiss
pass covering 28 yards down to the
Wolverine 16 yd. stripe. From
there, first string signal-caller Paul
Patterson turned a pass play into
a 16 yard gallop for a score. The
conversion was good and the crowd
settled back to watch the unfold-
ing drama.
Big Break
Ray Eliot's charges finally got
the break they had been waiting
for. Just before the half ended,
Chappuis had a fiat pass inter-
cepted and returned 52 yards by
Sam Zatkoff for a score. The con-
version was blocked and Illinois
held a 13-7 halftime lead.
Michigan outplayed the Illini
on the ground and through the air,
but the errors were costly. On
three separate occasions in the
fourth quarter, the Wolverines
heralded offense was able to move
within the Illinois 20, only to have
fumbles or good defensive line play
break up the threat. Near the end
o fthe game, the Maize and Blue
got one more scoring opportunity
when it blocked a punt, scored
ing the 'ball in the Illinois end
two points on a safety by recover-
zone, and then received the en-
suing kickoff.
All is Lost
The Wolverines proceeded to
march right down to the Illinois
9 yd. line, but alas, two more
fumbles and, a goal line stand
stopped them once again. Illinois
gained the much-needed victory,
13-9.
Chappuis had been the star, ac-
counting for more total offensive
yardage than the entire Illinois
team. The Illini swept on to win
their remaining games and took
the Big Nine title plus an invita-
tion to the Rose Bowl.
As for Michigan, they too won
all of their remaining games that
season. As a matter of fact, the
1946 loss to Illinois signalled the
start of Michigan's famous 25-
game winning streak as they
didn't lose another tall game until
1949.
