By MIKE GILLMAN Wolverine football coach Bump Elliott pulled his squad indoors yesterday after a short stint ,on frigid Ferry Field. Although the cold winds changed the scene of action into 'the con- fines of Yost Field House, it didn't shorten the workout any. The Wolverines still spent over two hours running through dummy drills, sharpening up the offense for Saturday's .game with -the Buckeyes of Ohio State. Question Marks Michigan and Ohio State both have question marks on their in- Jury lists. Although the Wolver- ines' guard Alex Callahan and halfback Tony Rio both worked out yesterday and ran in the of- fensive patterns they appeared somewhat slowed down 'by last Saturday's injuries. In Columbus, the question mark Is big fullback Bob White. VWhite has not been at top condition all season and may have his action limited against Michigan. Syracuse in Cotton owl; Other owls Unsettled By The AssocIated Press 'I The major post-season bowls are still as muddled as ever today with top-ranked Syracuse the only team to accept a bid. The un- defeated Orange will play the Southwest Conference champion in the Cotton Bowl in Dallas on New Year's Day. I Here is the current situation with the New Year's Day bowls: Rose Bowl: Wisconsin, North- western and Michigan State are tied for the Big Ten lead, with MSU. finishing its. Conference schedule at 4-2. Wisconsin plays Minnesota and Northwestern faces Illinois this Saturday. The host team will probably be Far West Five member Washington, which closes against Washington State. Sugar Bowl: Georgia, Louisiana State and Mississippi all top choices for the host spot, with L§U the best bet since the other two favor outside bowls. The com- petition probably will come from the No. 2 or 3 team in the South- west Conference, possibly Arkan- sas or Texas Christian. Cotton Bowl: The Southwest1 Conference champion, with sec- ond-place Texas still favored. Syracuse is in. Orange Bowl: the Big Eight representative, as host, will come from either Missouri or Kansas, who play each other Saturday, or Iowa State, which facesconfer- ence leader Oklahoma, ineligible to come after winning last year. The visitor probably will be Geor- gia, Southeastern Conference champ. Penn State, Clemson, and some of the runnersup in the SEC are possibilities. Gator Bowl: Wide-open with Georgia, Mississippi, LSU, Ala- bama, Tennessee, Georgia Tech, Miami (Fla.), Penn State, Clem- son, SMU, TCU and Arkansas tops on the list. Liberty Bowl (Philadelphia, Dec. 19) - Penn State has been invited and probably will accept, with likely opponents from among lAississippi, LSU, Georgia, TCU, Clemson and the Air Force, the last seemingly the most logical if it will accept. Among the regular offensive backs, the leading ground gainers thus farrare Tony Rio with a 4.1 yards per carry average, followed by Fred Julian With a 3.9 average. "Raider" fullback, Paul Ra~eder sports a 5.8 average, but has only carried, five times. Quarterback Stan Noskin, al- though plagued with interceptions this season,' has still managed to post a more than acceptable rec- ord of pass completions. Noskin has hit on 54 of 105 tries for a better than 51% average and has tossed for four TD's. Favorite Target His favorite end zone 'target has been end John Halstead, who has taken two of the fo"r scoring tallies. Halstead trails halfback Darrell Harper in scoring however. Harper has scored three touchdowns, five °extra points and a lone field goal for a'26 point total. Halstead has the two touchdowns, three conver- sions and two field goals to his credit for 21 points. Bennie McRae, Ken Tureaud and Julian trail in third place for scoring honors with 12 points each, all scoring on a' pair of touchdowns. CoLB'R4mOHIOmTOO; COLUMBUS (A) - To escape the freezing weather, Ohio State went indoors for practice today but coach Woody Hayes opened the doors 'of the French Field House to keep his footballers from becoming too comfortable. In today's action second-string end Chuck Bryant of Zanesville, Ohio, suffered an injured wrist. However he said it probably would be all right for Saturday's battle. I. SLOWED DOWN-Wolverine halfback Tony Rio (left) and guard Alex Callahan, although slowed by recent injuries, ran through offensive drills yesterday as Michigan practiced indoors in Yost Field House. {.

THIS WEEK'S GAMES DETROIT (A)-- Sam Jones' breakaway layup shot enabled the Boston Celtics to beat the De- troit Pistons 132-129 in double overtime here tonight.
