But Lowry scored two mble against the touchdowns in that final period set the pattern to snatch victory from the jaws e, as since then of defeat. SMU has also had a fairly de- .cent year.

The M&M boys were called by the Horns' Minnick "the two best running backs in the country." One very pleasant surprise has been the semi-emergence of Bay- lor from the back of the pack. With new coach Grant Teaff at the helm, the Bears (4-4) have produced four wins this season as compared with only one over the past two campaigns. Before Texas can make its reservations for a New Year's day in Dallas they still must get by two more opponents, neither of which is having an outstand- ing year. TCU surprised every- one last week by dumping the heavily-favored Red Raiders, but but other than that they have been less than impressive, as witnessed the 42-9 clobbering ad- ministered by Baylor the pre- vious week. While Texas A&M has won but three games, their Thanksgiving Day battle with the Longhorns may produce a few surprises. The main reason for this is the new coach, Emory Bellard, who may remember enough of the Texas offense which he coached last year to pull off an upset. Trying to compare this year's Texas team with the previous champions is a subject much discussed in the Lone Star state. SMU coach Hayden Fry says "They're (Texas) every bit as good if not better than the teams that won the national champion- ships in 1969 and 1970." As the Longhorn races to the wire leaving the others in the dust, it appears that it could win tVe titl ! now even with George 4Ga eri in ths saddle. As cur- rent j ):2key Lowry put it as his express heads toward the Cotton Bowl "We're gonna play 'em one at a time." He did admit how- ever that he had rarely seen a team play more than one game at a time. With that piece of expertise another SWC race can be laid to rest with seven of the entries slated for a trip to the glue fac- tory, or to the stud farm, and the Texas Longhorn being groom- ed and readied for an appear- ance in the Cotton Bowl. i f't B R y Cold days are ahead and you will be ready when you choose from this colorful collection of crocheted hats and scarves. $8.00 a set.

But if Arkansas (5-4) has been a disappointment, L o n g h o r n trainer Darrel Royal really has his entry feeling its oats. The main worry at the start of the season was the lack of a super jockey. So they have had to rely on Allen 'Slick' Lowry, who has come through superbly. The 'Horns' defensive unit was also not expected to measure up to the ones from the past four Psychiatrists cannot explain the sudden mass exodus from the city of Ann Arbor, Michigan. Beginning early yesterday morning, the entire city, with a few exceptions, began leaving. Pressure about finals is said to have driven many of the students away.

Volleyball club expects success beginning Detroit 'Y' tourney By MIKE LASH When most people think of vol- leyball, they tend to regard it as more of a healthy, relaxing fami- ly type of sport confined to the backyard or to grade school gym classes. But to the skillful and experi- enced player, the game is a real contest of strength, teamwork and lightning - fast reaction. Only top- notch sportsmen are able to endure the gruelling strain necessary to develop a winner. Obviously, the University of Michigan volleyball squad has already learned that lesson and learned it well. This season, Michigan's sports club program sends in a mighty competitor that last year suffered only 39 losses in 152 contests. They competed against volleyball clubs and col- lege varsity teams from all over ~~-~ GRADUATING BFA DEGREE SHOW the state as well as other parts of the Midwest. Beginning next Tuesday, Michi- gan attempts to prove that last year was no fluke when they take on St. Clair Shores College, of Windsor. This is the first round of an eight-team round robin tourna- ment in the Detroit YMCA League. Each of the eight teams play a five-game series with each of the other seven squads twice, and the team finishing with the most victories wins the tourna- ment crown. Last year Michigan racked up 59 victories along with six losses to win the champion- ship, and has high hopes of re- peating that performance this season. According to club president An- dy Frievalds, Michigan will alter- nate its graduate and undergrad- uate squads throughout that tour- nament. He will save his open team, which consists of the best players on the roster for the up- coming U. S. Volleyball Associa- tion (USVBA) tournaments. The open team is open to all Michigan students and faculty. A long, hard road lies ahead for the Michigan volleyball men, and an equally difficult path to match lies behind. But teamwork, coor- dination and a winning attitude, are trademarks of Michigan's pow- erful sports squads, and volleyball is certainly no exception.
