By The Associated Press,'
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - Stan-
ford's defense,. its back against
the wall, shanghaied Arkansas
quarterback Bill Montgomery on,
a fourth down at the Stanford
,our yesterday to lieserve a 34-28
victory. *
Stanford's Jim Plunkett befud-
dled the fourth-ranked Razor-
backs' defense with short passes
to his running backs as the In-
dians raced to a 27-0 lead midway
in the second period.
Montgomery, ineffective through
most of the first half, had rallied
the Razorbacks by turning two

fourth down plays into touch-
downs. When Arkansas tailback
Bill Burnett leaped into the end
zone midway through the fourth
period, the Razorbacks pulled to
34-28.
Less than two minutes later,
defensive end Rick Kersey recov-
ered a fumble at midfield and
Arkansas had one last chance. I
The drive reached the Stanford'
five and on fourth down and less
than two yards to go, Montgomery'
sprinted to his left, cut up field,
and was knocked down a foot
from a first down.
The Indians happily watched
the final 22 seconds tick away.

Plunkett connected on 14 of 30
passes during the first half, but'
was 11 for 17 at one point.
When Plunkett wasn't throw-
ing, he was handing off to 220-
pound Hillary Shockley, who
scored three touchdowns on runs
of 43. 2 and 1 yards. The Indians'-

THAT THOSE WHO TALK so earnestly about the lack of in-
centive on a team that can't go to the Rose Bowl should
look back at what happened here 20 years ago. The 1947 Michi-
gan team went 9-0, won the conference championship and went
to the Rose Bowl. The 1948 team, which couldn't go to the
Rose Bowl, went 9-0, won the conference championship and
was ranked number one in the country.
That some coaches, including, Bo Schembechler, want
the Big Ten to allow more football tenders because of the
11th game, which starts next year.
That the Wolverines have been attracting more than their.
fair share of professional scouts.,The scouts say they like to get
a look at the players in practice situations early in the sea-
son, where they can judge a player on "the basics." Inciden-
tally, one well-known pro superscout who stopped in at prac-
tice late last month ratesDon Moorhead as one of the top- four
college quarterbacks in the country.
,That if you don'tthink Michigan State is nostalgically
looking back to their days of greater gridiron glory, con-
sider the lead item on one or their latest press releases. It
reads: "Michigan State's 28-game football winning streak
of 1950-53 was the 10th longestin the first 100 years of-the
sport.
That Michigan's high spot in the preseason polls doesn't
leave Schembechler especially enthusiastic, nor especially cold.
"The polls probably mean more to the players than they do to,
me," he says. "'I've been looking at polls for 17 years and I
know they don't mean much."
That Ohio State's venerable old gridiron mentor W. W.
Hayes wouldn't even mention Michigan by name when the
Buckeyes held their annual picture day last month "That
team that beat us last year should be good again this year,
too," he said. But, probably much- to Woody's chargin, the
Wolverines haven't gone away just because he ignored them
and neither has last year's 24-12 defeat.
That Dick Caldarazzo and Jerry Imsland, two members
of last year's varsity te'am, probably hold the record for the
t shortest tenure of any assistant freshman football coach in the
country. They held their .positions a little over one day, before
they quit.
That only three Michigan players have won the "Most
Valuable Player" award twice since its inception in 1926.'
Two, Ron Johnson in 17 and '68 and Tom Harmon in '39
and '40, wyre halfbacks. Ralph Heikkinen, who won it in
37 and '38, was a guard. '
That Michigan's ticket manager has nothing but praise
for students and after four hectic days of ticket distribution.
"It was the smoothest distribution since I've been here," he says,
"and the credit belongs to the students."
That, in the words of physical education instructor
supreme Wally Weber, "pound for pound" Michigan wolf-
back Frank Gusich could be the toughest player in, the
conference. Last year, Gusich, who weighs 187, amazed
people with his guts, playing the entire year with a broken
wrist. This year, he has amazed people with his tackling
-ability.
That the Big Ten, which likes to boast of its grand old
heritage, sometimes confuses tradition with intransiglence. A
case in point is the conference's persistent refusal to allow
freshman football players to report for pre-season conditioning
drills before the start of the academic term. The' conference
powers that we are so afraid of giving someone a slight ad-
vance by changing a rule that they prefer to stand pat and
leave things as they are. The joke of the whole thing is that
the freshman are used mainly to practice with the varsity, and
any advantage that would come from allowing them to report
early would be evident only in the first couple of games, which
are non-conference contests.
That if the talent-laden Michigan Basketball team can
muster half the enthusiasm of their always effervescent
coach, Johnny Orr, they might really go places. "Wouldn't
it be great," Orr speculated the other day, "if Michigan won
conference championships in football and basketball in the
same year."

The Pittsburgh Pirates, with the
New York Mets ready to pass
them, clung to a ninth-inning lead
and retained their half-game edge
in the hectic National League
East race yesterday by dropping
the Chicago Cubs 5-4.
With the Mets already in the
clubhouse with a 3-0 victory over
the St. Louis Cardinals that pull-
ed them briefly even with Pitts-
burgh, the Pirates went out and
downed the Cubs in a twice rain-
delayed, nationally televised ten-
sion-packed contest.
The victory also moved the
Cubs two games back, thwarting
their 4bid to pull into a second
place tie. It also temporarily halt-
ed Ferguson Jenkins' bid for a
fourth straight 20-victory season.
Jenkins, 19-14, wasn't around
when the game was decided in the
ninth, which the Pirates entered
'leading 2-1. Consecutive homers by
Willie Stargell, his 29th, and Bob
Robertson, his 25th, brought home
three runs and made it 5-1. .
