With only two games completed by most teams, chances are that the current record holders are just that-only current. Some general trends have been noted, though. Since 1968, the scores have shown a marked increase. But last Satur- day there was an appreciable de- crease. There were 16 shutouts out of 66 major college games as the scores tallied were the lowest in three seasons. Observers attribute this decrease to the coaches' em- phasis on the defense. Leading the nation in rushing defense is Texas Christian with giving up an average of 24.5 yards. 60 75 83 85 85 90 Yesterday's Results Cleveland 8, Detroit 7, 1st Detroit 4, Cleveland 2, 2nd Baltimore 10, Boston 2 Baltimore 5, Boston 4 Washington 4, New York 2 California 6, Minnesota 2 Oakland 2, Kansas City 1 Milwaukee 3, Chicago 2 Kansas City at Oakland California at Minnesota Milwaukee at Chicago Detroit at Cleveland Boston at Baltimore Yesterday's Results St. Louis 5, New York 2 Los Angeles 2, Houston 1 Montreal 5, Chicago 4 Atlanta 4, Cincinnati 0 Philadelphia 6, Pittsburgh 3 San Francisco at San Diego, inc. Today's Games Chicago at Montreal Houston at Los Angeles San Francisco at San Diego Pickings I On the offensive side Cornell (1-0-0) has the total offense record. Penn State has played two games so perhaps its average of 548 yards for second place in total offense is more credible than Cornell's 611 yards. Another Ivy League school, Princeton, compiled 328 yards total passing during its 33-18 loss to Rutgers to be first nationally in average passing offense. Second is Washington (3-0-0) with 307 yards. Projecting Michigan into the na- tional records reveals some ex- pected conclusions. In rushing of- fense the Wolverines would be a respectable 13th. They would be about 20th in total offense while it would be impossible to deter- mine where they stand in passing offense. This is to be expected, since the team plays a conserva- tive, ground-oriented game, taking to the air only for diversion. In the defensive statistics. the Wolverines would probably be near the top. Their well-balanced de- fense is feared by their opponents, and it has been key to at least one of their victories this year. All in all, Michigan 1s well- balanced in most respects. This is the quality that wins games, not leads statistics. DETROIT TIGER PITCHER, Joe Coleman displays the form that won him his 20th game of the season last night. It was the first 20 win season for the righthander who came to the Tigers from the Washington Senators in the Denny McLain trade. Coleman, now 20-9, and Mickey Lolich give the Tigers their first pair of 20 game win- ners since 1956.

Four hundred dollars down in this den of inequity in Romulus and only a few hours until the end of the game. He had to go all out to win this pot, since he had staked his life savings in this nefarious game to try to raise funds for 37 destitute orphans starving in his home town. Keeping the ace of spades, he boldly called for four cards. The dealer, a bleary eyed Tasmanian dwarf looked at him disdainfully but handed him the cards. Muttering a prayer, 'Aces' began picking up his cards one by one. The king of spades, the jack of spades, the queen of spades.

Santa Barbara has been kindly called penetratable and more hon- estly called porous. The defense has given up 113points, while the offense has scored 13 points in two games, which makes them 13 points better than Illinois. Los Angeles State, who finished 1-9 last year, can only be called improved. They, in all likelihood, will join Santa Barbara as the doormats of the conference. San Jose State does not have the coordinated offense to become a real challenger, but posses enough talent that on any given Saturday, as the saying goes, San Diego and Long Beach could feel the effects of Coach Dewey King's new offense.
