3, -194th~ THE MIGHTGA DAILY- PAGE TH..HGA AT PAGE Tigers Blast D Soph Gridmen Are Impressive In First Collegiate Com petition erringer Buck Wins For Bake3 From Mound, Defeat Reds, 7-2 By HAL WILSON If the showing of Michigan's soph- omore gridders in the California tilt is any criterion of what Coach Fritz Crisler can expect of them in future battles, then the Wolverine reserve problem is solved. For the performance they turned in while undergoing their initial bap- tism of big-time football was indeed impressive. While it is true that the caliber of the opposition put up by the Golden Bears was not as auspi- cious as expected, nevertheless, go- ing into action before a hostile mob of 42,000 fans against one of the West Coast's famed "name" football teams while 2,500 miles away from home is not the easiest way to break into intercollegiate gridiron competi- tion for the first time. Sophs See Action And go into action is just what 12 sophomore gridmen did last Satur- day-with emphasis on the action. livery one of Crisler's first-year men who made the air jaunt to the Golden West saw service in the 41-0 drub- Wing of the Bears. In the third quarter a reserve eleven comprising mainly sopho- mores staged a sustained drive for more than half the length of the field, ending in a counter when lanky Cliff Wise bucked over for his first Vichigan touchdown. Hard-running Harold "Tippy" Loclard, rugged spph fullback, was also instrumental in the long march over and around the discomfited Bear outfit with his hard line-smashing. Ceithanil Fills Bill Bruising George Ceithaml stepped into Capt. Forest Evashevski's big cleated shoes and turned in a mas- terful job as field general, both his signal-calling and sharp blocking pore than fulfilling the promise he' had shown in pre-season drills. On the third play of the game halfback Bob Kresja was rushed in to replace Norm Call who sustained a heel injury, and his subsequent performance was more than satis- factory. Husky Al Wistert, sopho- more regular tackle, started his first .Vaisity .game for the Maize and Blue, and his play was very reminiscent of his brother's All-American work back in 1933.

Derringer had performed hurling wonders against American League batters for many years, in the World Series and the All-Star games. Tomorrow the Reds will have to come out with Buck Walters, whose record of 22 and 10 is not much bet- ter than Derringer's 20 and 12 and whose fast sinker proved a delight to the Yankees a year ago. Whetherj he can stop the Tigers was problem- atical and whether it would do any good to slow them up was doubtful. The Tigers had Schoolboy Rowe, hero of Detroit's last two trips into the big baseball classic, ready to go to the mound. He won 16 and lost only 3 during the regular season and although incapable of working as often as Newsom, has generally been more effective. Tebbetts Will Catch He will have Birdie Tebbetts, a better catcher than Sullivan, work- ing with him. Sullivan, a left-hand- ed batter who usually catches New- som, went hitless today as did Char- ley Gehringer. But Frank McCormick, the clean- up man and only "power" hitter in the Reds' lineup, failed to get even one hit, being blanked with Wilson, Myers and all the pitchers and pinch-hitters McKechnie used. The "deacon" disclosed in the dressing room after the game that he had no hope of using Ernie Lom- bardi, his lumbering but hard-hit- ting catcher. Cincinnati ..

Badger Players Injured MADISON, Wis., Oct. 2.-(P)--One by one Coach Stuhldreher is losing the men he counted on for his first team. The battle for the wingback post on Michigan's grid team that raged during the entire pre-seagon train- ing period has been touched off anew with even greater fury since Norm Call, junior speedster who had clinched the berth, incurred an an- kle injury in the California contest. The chances for Call to start against Michigan State here Satur- day are becoming more remote every day. At first it was believed his an- kle would round into shape rapidly, but instead of responding to treat- ment, however, it 'still bothers him considerably. Although in uniform at practice yesterday, Call was forced to abstain from contact work, limp- ing along on the sidelines watching his teammates drill for the Spartans. The player who replaced Call in the California tilt, sophomore Bob Kresja, seems at the present time to have the inside track in the three- cornered fight for the vacant post, with Davie Nelson and Paul Kromer pressing close behind. Kresja's talent for knocking down defensive opponents rates him an edge, for in Fritz Crisler's coaching system the wingback is primarily a blocking back. Junior Davie Nelson has had more experience than Kresja and is also a better runner, but his small stature is a handicap. Davie gained 50 yards in nine attempts against California, however, and will probably see plen- ty of action against the Spartans. Regular halfback and running There will be a meeting of all men interested in varsity track at 4:30 p.m. today in Yost Field House. - Coach Ken Doherty RUDY SMEJA ence Hall made his first appearance in a spot strange to him, the pivot position. Elmer Madar, Bob Smith, Ted Denise; all participated in the overwhelming triumph. But- it's unfair to single out any of them for individual performances. It was undeniably a team victory- one that may be repeated often if these gridmen produce in the future as they did in their initial test. Cubs Even City Series CHICAGO, Oct. 2.--()-The Chi- cago Cubs, given a seven-hit pitching performance by rookie Vern Olsen and some wobbly defensive work by their American League opponents, defeated the White Sox, 8 to 2, to- day. SPORTS STAFF TRYOUTS All sophomores and second se- mester freshmen interested in working on the sports staff of The Michigan Daily will meet at 4 p.m. today on the second floor of the Student Publications Building on Maynard St. mate of Tom Harmon's two years ago, Paul Kromer is still a question mark. His knee injury prevented himt from making the air jaunt to the Pacific Coast, and it is problem- atical whether or not he will be in top condition for State. In passing drill yesterday all three saw some action at the wingback post. The aerial plays, run off against a red-shirted third-string eleven, were not clicking well, and pleased neither the coaches nor the gridders. The squad also received another dose of Spartan Notre Dame forma- tions, stopping them with little diffi- culty.

Coach Ray Courtright don wirtckaf ter's Two husky legs canme charging down the Ferry Field cinders. With baseball interest at its peak, and the Wolverine grid squad in the midst of prepartions for the home dbut, normally we wouldn't have paid much attention to those sturdy, rapidly-moving pins. After all, the track season is still months off. But when we looked to see who was running above that pair of legs, the situation suddenly changed. For it was sophomore Bob Uer, boys and girls, the tremendous question mark of last year's yearling track squad. Let me bring back those days of indecision that came last spring. Ufer, as you probably recall, had broken more records than he ordi- nary drunk at a fraternity victro- la dance. He could run the dashes, middle distance races ando relays with prodigious timings. He was counted upon for big things when the 1941 cinder season rolled a- round. But Pfer was a husky lad, and he wanted to try to play football. Last fall, he had won his numerals with the frosh gridders. He wasn't a star with Wally Weber charges. No, he neve rhad the natural ability to carry the pigskin. And yet with his speed and power, the experts couldn't help but feel that with a little teach- ing and experience, the lad could de- velop into something rather great. Football, track or both, that was WHILE THEY LAST A FEW USED MODELS ("DEMONSTRATORS") FOR R E NT O R SALE ON E ASY To avoid disappointmen ....COME EARLY!

Morrill 314 South State Street A I! the question for Bob Ufer last spring. Well, yesterday it became evident to me that Ufer had made his deci- sion. Those sturdy pair of pins that I saw turning up the Ferry Field cinders will be gathering points for Ken Doherty this winter instead of Fritz Crisler this fall. Frankly, I think it's the wisest decision that any man in Ufer's boots could have possibly made. Just look oback over the athletic history, and you'll see that there have been very few boys who were able to successfully double in track and football. Take the case of Fred 'King' Kel- ley, fo rexample. He used to hurdle and sprint rather well for Southern Cal, and because of his speed he was given a backfield berth on the Trojan eleven. But that was a fatal move for the King. Everytime he attempted to charge the line, Kelley unconscious- ly would begin thinking about those fragile pins that had won him so many headlines just the season be- fore. As a result, he would hesi- tate, fall behind his blockers and fall before his tacklers. This kept on for quite awhile, but they left him in the lineup because Kelley "was potentially a gridiron star with his speed and power." But the Trojan followers got fed up with the situation. They called their track star yellow. They booed him on the gridiron. Little did they know what was going on in- side Kelley everytime he handled the ball. So the King made up his mind to remedy the situation. In the Oregon game that year, he swore to do or die. Forget about those legs, he pleaded with himself. Drive, drive. And that he did. Right into the line, and on the first play he broke his right leg. Track and football both had little use of Kelley from that time on. There have been others just like him, too. Howard Drew, the fastest sprinter in his generation, Thuck Miller of Harvard, Chester Bowman from Syracuse and Bill Miller, the Princeton speedster, were alletrack- men who failed on the gridiron. El- mer Gedeon tried it her just a few years back, but you could hardly call him a star at football. Sure, you can point to Carlysle's great Indian, Jim Thorpe, and No- tre Dame's Jack Elder. They both doubled and did it successfully. But as you recall, these men were both gridders in the main, and run- ners as a sideline. And there lies your difference. These men learned to swerve and dodge long before they learned to run in a straight line. They never had to hesitate. It is interesting to note that out Stanford way these days, Clyde Jef- fries, the Golden West's great sprint- er, is working with Clark Shaugh- nessy's Indian eleven. They say that he shows a whale of a lot of promise. But remember again that Ufer and Jeffries are in different boats. The Stanford flash has already reached his peak and started the down turn in the track empire. The Wolverine kid is just starting. Ii1 CANDID CAME RAS Need Special Care!
