At present there are no cross- county meets scheduled with any of the Big Ten schools who also participate in cross-country. Whether or not Michigan will run against such conference opponents as Ohio State or the perennial Big Ten cross-country champs, Michigan State, will, according to Martin, "depend upon the boys." If the runners are willing to work hard enough to produce re- sults, then every effort will be made to secure improved oompeti- tion. If the team has progressed suf- ficiently by the end of the season, Martin will undoubtedly send an aggrigate of men to compete at the Big Ten championships. This again will "depend upon the boys."

OWERHOUSE FOOTBALL: Quarterbacks, Defense To. Play Big Role In Southeastern Conference This Year By BILL BULLARD Two foreign women's field hock- ey teams will face local teams Sunday afternoon on Palmer Field after competing in the eighth In- ternational Women's Field Hockey Tournament at Goucher College near Baltimore. An. Ann Arbor team will play Trinidad and Great Lakes (the Michigan-Ohio area) will meet Germany, starting at 2 p.m. The Ann Arbor team includes students Marjorie Bloom, Jenifer Jones, and Brenda Bolaly as well as phys- ical education faculty members Phyllis Ocker and Marilyn Hunt. The program will begin Sunday with a colorful march onto the field by the four teams with their respective flags. Germany will op- pose Great Lakes in the first of the two contests. Interest Rising Interest in women's field hockey' in this country has reached new heights as a result of the tourna- ment at Goucher. The highly rated American team finished with a disappointing record of two wins, two losses, and two ties. New Zealand with a 6-0 record and Australia with a 5-1 mark were the most impressive in the tourney for which. no official champion was crowned. For the next three weeks, 14 of the 17 teams that played in the tourna- ment will be touring the United States and engaging in exhibition matches. Atf-Stars After the teams from Germany and Trinidad finish their games here they will travel to Kalama- zoo for more exhibitions. The Ger- man team will face the Michigan All-Stars on Tuesday. Stars. The All-Stars, from Michi- gan, Michigan State, Eastern Michigan, Western Michigan, Cen- tral Michigan, Kalamazoo College, and Albion, held their first prac- tices in Ann Arbor last Saturday and Sunday. Conerly Tied With Gambler MEMPHIS, Tenn. (R) - The Press-Scimitar was informed yes- terday that Commissioner Pete Rozell? of the National Football League is investigating several checks written by Maurice I. Lew- is, Memphis developer, a n d Scashed by Charles (Chuck) Coner- ly, star quarterback with the New York Giants until his retirement in February, 1962. The NFL acknowledged in New York that it was looking into the matter. Lewis was indicted Jan. 8, by the Shelby County grand jury on foot- ball gambling charges and now is awaiting trial. Conerly said he had lent money to Lewis. Both said the checks were in repayment of a loan. Lewis testified the checks rep- resented "'repayment of loans" made to him by Conerly. He said he and Conerly had been friends for "many, many years . .. as far back as 1946 ...." FOOTBALL SCORES Texas 21, Tulane 0 Florida State 24, Miami (Fla) 0 Marilyn Bloom are Brown and Marjorie members of the All- way, and Coach Bump Elliott has given no definite commitment to anyone. For a while, most gridiron fore- casters (Monday morning quarter- backs) had just about written down Bob Timberlake, the junior from Middletown, Ohio, for signal caller on opening day. Timberlake picked up a shoulder injury a cou- ple of weeks ago, thus enter Tom Prichard. Three Challengers Prichard is the chap who was running from the halfback slot, last year, but has been reinstated at his original position during his sophomore year. Prichard did a good job while Timberlake was briefly handicapped, but then two more challengers appeared on the scene. Senior Bob Chandler, whose passing arm gained high praise from most circles in the latter stages of last year's campaign, re- covered from injuries incurred at the beginning of practice in Au- gust. He took over some of the leadership duties during recent scrimmages, but he too gave ground to the fourth claimant- Frosty Evashevski. Evashevski gained form in a rather surprising manner by lead- ing the White team to several tal- lies against the Blue team in scrimmages. His passing and run- ning apparently has matured in just recent weeks, enough so that Elliott now has him working with the Blue team besides the Whites during practice. In yesterday afternoon's light workout, Evashevski was sidelined with an ankle injury. So where does that leave the prognosticators for opening day? Elliott comment- ed, "The quarterback position isn't perfectly clear yet. I ran Timber- lake, Prichard, and Chandler in there with the first unit today." Clancy vs. Rowser Besides the quarterback position, another note of interest is the left halfback spot. Jack Clancy three weeks ago replaced the injured John Rowser, but since then Row- ser has completely recovered, ex- cept for being reinstated to the first team. "This is another position that is still cloudy," Elliott remarked. "Clancy and Rowser are having a real good battle for that starting spot." Not Sharp Elliott held his last game-type scrimmage Thursday at the Sta- dium in order to allow enough time to study the movies and also to give the squad time to rest before next week's game. Elliott conclud- ed, "I didn't expect the team to be at peak performance during that scrimmage because, after all, it followed a day of classes and we have had some long practice sessions recently."

E The big question again is just who will be going to which bowl games for the post-season festivi- ties. Such football dynasties as Alabama, Mississippi and LSU again appear loaded with the kind of material that leads to bowl bids. The one question at Mississippi is centered around the name Per- ry Lee Dunn. Dunn is a converted fullback who will be expected to make the transition to quarterback this year. Accompanying Dunn in the backfield are an assortment of Braves Moving? ATLANTA (M)-An official of Atlanta's Stadium Authority said yesterday there's no truth to a story that the Milwaukee Braves of the National League are moving to Atlanta next year. im SCOES 1 Math 12, Radiation Lab 0 Biochemistry 14, Engrg.

Up front the Rebels are big and quick. Allen 'Brown, at 6'4" and 225; should be a standout at left end. Tide Tough The normally omniprestnt fig- ures of Lee Roy Jordan, line backer par excellence, will be gone at Ala- bama but head Coach Bear Bryant figures on the Crimson Tide being as tough as ever. Led by sophomore sensation Joe Namath at quarterback and Mike Fracchia at fullback, Alabama will possess a powerful offensive punch to complement its savage, gang- tackling defense. Paul Crane, a lean sophomore will take on Jor- dan's linebacking chores. The rest of the line has the letterman air. CharliehMcClendonat Louisiana State, =who filled departed Paul' Dietzel's shoes admirably last sea- son, has lost 18 lettermen through graduation. Returning, however, at quarterback will be Pat Screen, who sat out last season for eligibil- ity reasons. Also included in the backfield will be 200-pound junior, Danny LeBlanc, who'in the latter half of the season periodically out- shone his All-American team- mate, Jerry Stovall. The Bengal's line, anchored by senior guard, Robbie Huckelbridge, will be light, with the exception of 250-pound sophomore guard, George Rice. Florida appears headed for new heights this season with the return of key performers from a team that defeated Penn State in the Gator Bowl in last season's fin- ale. Massive tackle Frank Lasky, who has the pro's drooling, will head an impressive line. Tom Shannon, a colorful southpaw quarterback returns with Larry Dupree, a hard-charging fullback. Georgia Tech has lost its line from tackle to tackle. However, Bobby Dodd will have all his key backs and ends returning. This means that triple threat senior Billy Lothridge will again be di- recting the Yellow Jacket attack. His aerial targets again will be Ted Davis and Bill Martin, two of the finest ends in the country. Modest improvement seems the word for Tennessee, in its fourth season under Coach Bowden Wy- att. The revival seems bent on the performance of senior tailback Mallon Faircloth, a sensation as a sophomore. Key first-year men such as line-backer Frank Eman- uel will be heavily counted upon. Kentucky will also be counting on its talented sophomores, and a defensive pride instilled by Coach Charley Bradshaw. Herschel Turn- er, 230-pound tackle, and one of the few veterans in the line, is rated as a likely All-American. Auburn Rebuilding It will "be a rebuilding year at Auburn for Coach Ralph Jordan. Returning will be quarterback Jim Sidle, whom Jordan calls the best in the league. The rest of the backs are first rate but the line is thin in talent. Hope for improvement at Mis- sissippi State is based on the of- fensive punch offered by teamj leader Ode Burrell and highly touted sophomore fullback, Hoyle Granger. Pat Watson is a talented linebacker with all-league poten- Georgia, with quarteiback Larry Rakestraw, appears a more solid team this year on paper, but the football future seems clouded by the Wally Butts-John Griffith dif- ferences. Tulane, the academic mainstay of the league, and Vanderbilt ap- pear faced with the familiar prob- lems of recruiting. Any hope for the future is dimmed with a glance at their rugged conference oppon- ents. You can get SWINGLINE STAPLERS at MORRILL'S 314 S.
