Elliott Works Many Hours
Trying To Build Winner

Out for Season

from 1:00 to 3:00 P.M. Monday through Friday, and Saturday 9:30 'tit 11:30 A.M.

When Michigan takes the field
Saturday a young blond-haired
gentleman will quietly walk across
the field to take his place on the
Wolverine bench. His name? Chal-
mers "Bump" Elliott. His job? To
build a winning football team.
The walk across the field will be
familiar to him, but the spot on
the bench will not. This will only
be the third time for him, as when
he came onto the field some 12
years ago, he did not stay on the
bench:
Bump Elliott was an All-Ameri-
can halfback on one of Michigan's
greatest teams. From the 55-0
slaughter of Michigan State to the

BUMP ELLIOTT
...youthful 'M mentor
49-0 whitewashing of Southern
California in the Rose Bowl, Elliott
was an All-American.
Saturday Is Different
Saturday will be different. He no
longer can score a touchdown for
the Wolverines, he must teach
someone else to do it. Bump Elliott
has become the head football coach
at the University of Michigan.
Bump Elliott will be mentioned
with the great Michigan coaches
of the past. Men like Fielding H.
Yost, Harry Kipke, Fritz Crisler
and Bennie Oosterbaan.
Elliott's rise to the top has not
been spectacular, but it has been
fast. Ironically enough, the team
with which he had his first success
as a coach will furnish the opposi-
tion as he seeks his first success
as Michigan head coach.
Elliott started his career as
backfield coach at Oregon State.
After coaching there for three
years he was appointed backfield
coach at Iowa. Prom there he came
home to Michigan.
Taught Great Players
Despite his youthfulness he has
taught some great football play-
ers. Ken Carpenter, who starred at
Oregon State and later with the
Cleveland Browns, and Kenny
?loen, who starred for Iowa, played
under him. He also taught football
to ex-Michigan stars Jimmy Pace,
Jim Van Pelt and Bob Ptacek.
Now with Michigan football at
its. lowest ebb in many years, Bump
Elliott faces a tremendous chal-
lenge. That is, to raise the Maize
and Blue from the depths so that
the phrase, "Champions of the
West," will again echo across the
country.
Elliott accepted the job with this
in mind. He realizes that right now
his Wolverines are not the most
powerful collegiate football team
in the country, but he is building
for the future.
But despite his dreams for the
future and his thoughts of glory
for Michigan, he has not forgotten
that he has a job to do now.

The football week for him starts
early Sunday morning and does
not end until the following Satur-
day night, and then he starts all
over again.
On Sundays the films from
Saturday's game must be reviewed,
the scouting reports must be care-
fully analyzed, the weak points in
his own team found and the strong
points must be improved. Defenses
must be planned and the offense
combed for flaws.
On Monday he is back on the
practice field again, working with
his team and coaches in an at-
tempt to ready his squad for the
weekend game. Tuesday and
Wednesday come and then Thurs-
day and Friday, the same long
routine each day.
Team Ready
By the time Saturday comes,
Bump Elliott has his team ready.
Saturday morning is spent at the
University golf course clubhouse.
Not resting or playing golf, but
still making last minute prepara-
tions.
Then when he finally takes his
walk across Michigan Stadium turf
that afternoon he sees his finished
product, the team in action.
When he grabs the field tele-
phone, Elliott is still working, since
as he has backfield coach Hank
Fonde and the team scout in the
press box searching for something
that might help win the game.
His work day lasts 11 hours or
more, seven days a week during1
football season. He seldom gets aI
chancy to spend much time with
his wife or his three children, but
this is one of the sacrifices he must
make, for he is Michigan's football'
coach.

MORE BAD NEWS-Michigan's football fortunes took a further
turn for the worse yesterday when it was announced that starting
right halfback Brad Meyers (17) would be lost for the season due
to a leg injury suffered in the MSU loss. Here he is seen fighting
for extra yardage in the Missouri game as Bob Haas (22) trys
to stop him.
All the members of The Daily sports staff in addition to the
guest editor fervently hope Michigan wins this Saturday as they have
unanimously picked the Wolverines to capture their first victory of the
season over Oregon State.
The guest this week is Bob Mann, who played on the 1947 Michi-
gan squad which went unbeaten and then whipped Southern Califor-
nia 49-0 in the Rose Bowl.
