That Serious Attitude.. .
They could kid and laugh and horse;
around more than any other bunch+
of athletes you ever saw, and yet they
could still win gamest
That was Michigan's football stock
of 1940.
If ever a squad had a good time
playing, it was the one that wound
up its schedule with a 40-0 trouncing
of Ohioin Columbus Saturday.
They joked in the locker-room be-
fore the games. They made cracks
in the huddles. They toyed with their
opponents.
Takef this last Buckeye game for
example. The Wolverines had the best
time of their lives from beginning'to
end.
With Michigan two touchdowns
ahead, the gridders went to work.
Bob Kolesar leaned toward Ohio's
guard Thom, chuckled twice, and
whispered: "Don't bother rushing
in on this play, lad. We're throw-
ing a pass."
Thom went tearing in. Harmon
faded-back aud flipped the ball to
Evashevski in the flat, and Michi-
gan had its hird score.
A little later in the game, Harmon
grabbed the ball from center again,
and tore back to flip another aerial.
In came Jim Daniell, the Buckeye's
crack tackle, in, quick pursuit.
Seeing that he had no chance to
catch the Ace, Daniell on the run
barked forth, "betcha two bits you
don't make it good."
Harmon kept moving back, drew
back his arm to fire, yelled back,
"you're on, pal," and sent the ball in-
to the air.
I! I.
Ed Frutig romped past the Buck-
eye secondary, pulled the ball down
and Michigan had its fourth touch-
down.
Coach Schmidt sent a'substitution
into his baffled Buckeye lineup. His
shirt was white and clean. He looked
too good for a football player.
Frutig took one look,' turned
around to his teammates and
shouted, "he must be one of those
fraternity boys, fellas."
Then Ralph Fritz stuck his head
out of the Wolverines' line, sneered
twice at his foes across the way,
threw out his chest and yelled,
"who says we haven't got the best
team in the world?"
On the other side of the line,
Kolesar was disgusted.
"Aw, come on guys, cut out the
chatter. How can a guy play foot-
ball with all this noise going on?"
How can you beat a team like that?
Evidently some of you thought that
I was taking that Hollywood press
release seriously yesterday . . . Fran-
cis Schmidt stated yesterday, "I will
not resign." . . . Last October just
after the close of the baseball season,
Oscar Vitt said, "I will not resign."
. Here it is Wednesday and still
no protests have been sent from Co-
lumbus.
The dream backfield Harmon,, va-
shevski and Westfall, along with u-
tig, made the INS All-Conference
eleven . George Franck, who re-
ceived more votes than Harmon in
the AP poll of coaches for their All-
Conference squad, was not even chos-
en by his mates as the most valuable
player on the Gopher team.,

Wolverines Pass Vols;
Minnesota Is Favored
To Win National Poll
By BILL BONI
NEW YORK, Nov. 26. -(R)- Al-
though Minnesota definitely declared
itself out of the Rose Bowl picture
today, the Western Conference foot-
ball champions figure very import-
antly in one post-season contest.
The Golden Gophers again are the
No. 1 team of the country in this
week's seventh Associated Press
Ranking Poll, and from the results
of today's balloting are favorites to
finish in that position when the final
votes are cast next week.
Minnesota, on top for the third
straight week, got 88 of the 170 first-
pjace votes this time (only two of
the count y's experts rated them
worse than fourth) to accumulate
1,562 points. Only 448 points, how-
ever, separate the Gophers from
fourth-place Boston College, with
Texas A. and M. and Stanford second
and third with 1,476 and 1,264 points,
respectively.
This week's first ten has a strong
Mid-western tinge and is likely to
retain that to the end. In addition
to Minnesota, there is Michigan,
one of the Gophers*two extra-point
victims, in fifth place; Northwest-
ern, beaten twice but a big winner
over Notre Dame in its finale, sev-
enth, and Nebraska, the Big Six
Champion, eighth.
Rounding out the list are sixth-
place Tennessee, which will be fav-
ored to complete three regular sea-
sons without defeat when it meets
Vanderbilt Saturday; Georgetown,
ninth, and Ivy League champion
Penn, tenth, only two points behind
the Hoyas.
First-place votes, besides Minneso-
ta's, were 41 for the Texas Aggies,
15 each for Stanford and Boston,
three for Michigan and eight for
Tennessee.
Charity Game
With Gophers
VieryUnlikely
Along with yesterday's heavy snow-
fall a stiff northerly gale swept along
idle rumors of a post season game
between Michigan and Minnesota.
Proof that sole father of such an
idea was the northerly breezes was
found in a poll of athletic officials on
the Michigan campus yesterday.
Coach Fritz Crisler said, "There is
apparently no chance of such a game
going through. After all, if we were
in Minnesota's shoes, we wouldn't be
interested even if the Big Ten said
it was okay."
"As far as I know, the conference
rule which prohibits post season
games will not be altered-;" said Prof.
Ralph Aigler, chairman of the Board
in Control of Physical Education
when questioned over the phone last
night.
Not since 1931, when Michigar
played Wisconsin in a post season
game for unemployment relief, has
the Big Ten relaxed this rigid ruling.
In that year all the members of the
conference participated in an extrE
game for the purposes of charity.
Despite the apparent obstacles such
a game might present many of Michi-
gan's revenge seeking alumni have
sent telegrams to Prof. W. J. Monk-
haus, of Indiana University, who is
chairman of the Big Ten Athletic
Board, urging a re-match.
To further decrease the tempo o:
the northerly breezes, Coach Bierman
Gopher Coach said, "Minnesota def-
initely is not interested in any post-
season games."

Lineup In Saturday's Premier
of Ohio State Saturday, but they
still think he's tops.
And here's the black-and-white
proof. The Wolverines scored - 196
points this season, Harmon scored
117, 16 touchdowns, 18 extra points
and one field goal, and threw seven
scoring passes, 42 more points. He
played a total of 433 minutes out of
a possible 460, and did most of the
kicking for a better than 40-yard
average. When you include his de-
fensive value, it all adds up to "most
valuable."
The Sun Set
This was Harmon's greatest year in
a great career. He was 16 points
better than he was as a junior, and
scored two more touchdowns. Almost
half of his 237-point total was made
this fall, and his kicking was a wel-
come addition. His rushing total was
842 yards in 192 tries, for a 4.38 av-
erage, compared to a three year
record of 2,134 yards in 398 tries for
a 5.4 average. He passed 95 times,
completed 43 of them for a .452 per-
centage, to boost his over-all percent-
age to .432 with 101 completions in
233 tries. He covered 503 yards of a
1,399 three-year total through the air
this fall. In three years the Gary
Galloper has gained 3,533 yards for
Michigan.
William Hurley, of Grosse Pointe,
was announced to succeed Fred How-
arth as senior manager. His alter-
nate is Monroe "Budd" Gilbert, of
Williamsville, N.Y. The junior man-
agers will be Albert Grunewald, of
Grosse Pointe; Howard DeYoung, of
Muskegon; James Kline, of Erie, Pa.;
and Edward Aldworth, of Grand
Rapids.
New Football Captain
The new captain was introduced
for the first time last night at the
University of Michigan Club of Ann
Arbor's banquet at the Union by re-
tiring Captain Evashevski. Regent
Harry Kipke, former Wolverine coach,
was the principle speaker at the af-
fair which was given for about 200
high school athletes of Ann Arbor
and the surrounding area. Fifteen
lettermen from this year's squad at-
tended, and such sports stars as
Charlie Gehringer and Mickey Coch-
rane, of the Detroit Tigers, "Whizzer"
White and Lloyd Cardwell, of the De-
troit Lions pro grid team, and Man-
ager Jack Adams and Ebbie Goodfel-
low of the Detroit Red Wings hockey
club were also there. Coach Crisler
showed pictures of the Ohio State
game as one of the feature attrac-
tions.
The annual "Football Bust" of the
Detroit Alumni Club will be held
Dec. 4 at the Book-Cadillac Hotel
This year's lettermen and the Wol-
verine coaches will also be honored
guests at this event.
Spectators at the opening game of
Michigan's 1940-41 hockey seasony
next Saturday night against the Lon-
don A.C. will likely see three new
faces when the Wolverine team takes
the ice at the openihg whistle.
The starting lineup has not been"
definitely decided as yet but Coach
Eddie Lowrey has indicated that
there will be newcomers at both of
the wing posts and at the goalie's
spot.
Veterans Returning
Capt. Charley Ross and Bert Stod-
den, both veterans, are definitely set
at the defense positions and Paul
Goldsmith will probably start the
first game at center. Goldsmith is a
junior.
Planking Goldsmith, however, will
probably be Max Bahrych and Bob
Kemp, both up from last year's
strong freshman squad.Both of the
wingmen are smart hockey players
and speedy skaters and should add a
lot of punch to the Michigan offense..
In the nets for the Wolverines,
there will be a newcomer although
Coach Lowrey has not yet decided
between two candidates. Hank Loud
is a junior who was forced to remain
in the shadow of Capt. Eldon (Spike)
James last season. Earlier in the
yepr, it was thought that Loud would
have clear sailing for the net-mind-
er's job this season but due to the
fine work of a sophomore aspirant
for the job, Hugh McVeigh, Lowrey is
still in doubt as to who will be wear-
ing the pads in the opening con-
test.
Two Newcomers
The second forward line will pro-
bably be made up of Johnny Gillis
at the center position and Jimmy
Lovett and Jim Anderson at the
wings. In this trio are two more
newcomers inasmuch as neither Gillis
nor Anderson has ever seen service
in an intercollegiate hockey game,
although both are upperclassmen.
The Michigan mentor plans to use.
either Bob Collins or Gil Samuelson
as a defense replacement for Charley
Ross and Bert Stodden. Last season,
Ross and 8todden played sixty min-
utes apiece on the back line in nearly
every game.
SWIM TEAM
Eleven University of Michigan
swimmers will give an exhibition
at Hammond, Ind., high school to-
day. Those making the trip are:
John Sharemet, John Patten, Bill
Holmes, Bob West, Claire Morse,
Ted Horlenko, Francis Heydt,
Bruce Allen, Louis Kivi, Jim Wilk-
inson, Louis Haughey.

By WOODY BLOCK
They're thinking of putting a fence
around the pool in the Sports build-
ing' before Friday. Matt Mann is wor-
ried that when Michigan's swim-
ming enthusiasts see Clayton Mains,
the country's foremost comedy diver
perform, they'll roll right into the
cool, green waters.
If you've never seen the latest in
ridiculous you're in for a treat when
you witness the Swim Gala Friday
evening. Oh, there'll be plenty of
legitimate dives, beautifully executed
by varsity men Jack Wolih and, T-
Bone Martin, besides two lovely fem-
inine stars.
But when Clayton Mains, formerly
in the Cleveland Great Lakes Expo-
sition and Billy Rose's Aquacades,
steps out and off the board you can
start holding your sides.
r He is undisputed master of such
difficult dives as the "One-and-a-
half-come-out-of-it-if-you-can," the
"Dipsy-doodler-pike," the "Belly-
flopperoo" and countless others.
Mains is from River Rouge and
held the state 220 yard dash title a
few years back. He took his swim-
ming ability, a lot of nerve and
jumped into the comedy end of the
diving business. He skyrocketed to
success with his novel interpretation
of how "not to dive and make a suc-
cess of it."
Helping Mains entertain the Swim
Gala crowd will be two of Matt's own
boys, Bill Holmes and Claire Morse.
That means three "Happy-Hooligans"
on the loose and anything is liable
to happen.
But diving isn't all that Matt Mann
has to offer his swimming public.
Working hard yesterday were four
boys who will portray the "History
of Swimming" in what is to be called
"The Water Ballet."
John Patten, Jim Welsh, Bruce Al-
len and Louis Kive were treading
water for hours yesterday as Matt
kept shouting, "One-two-three-
over!" All this work is going in to
make the sixth annual Swim Gala
the greatest ever. Friday is the day,
8 p.m. the time, the Sports building
the place, and fifty cents the admis-
sion.
