SUNDAY, NOV. 22, 1942 TH E MICHIGAN D A I LY PAGE SEVEN r Buckeyes Strike WOLVERINE FANS LIKE THE OX, TOO: Husing, Stern Name Al Wistert Best Lineman Seen This Year Through Air To Trounce Michigan, 21-7 U Alert OSU Capitalizes, on Wolverine Fumbles By MIKE DANN COLUUMBUS, O., Nov. 21.-Both Ted Husing of CBS and Bill Stern of NBC thought Michigan's great tackle Al Wistert the best lineman they had seen all year. Husing told fans, "Wistert is nothing short of sensational, but as runner-up Julie Franks gets my vote." There was a -heavy "down-pour all morning before the game and intermittently during the contest. Radio announcers could not tell listeners anything about the wea- ther so radio fans probably didn't know why there were so many fumbles and stumbling, on the part of both teams. The weather was much like that of the 1940 game between Ohio State and Michigan. Bob Hope and Frances Langford of movie and radio fame were din the stands. Said Hope after the game, "I didn't want to root for one side or the other until I was sure of the winner. I can't afford to take' chances with my reputation as a, sports prognosticator." The Ohio State band is probably the most colorful unit Big Ten fans have seen all year. At half-time the Buckeye music makers played the popular tune "Der Fuehrer's Face" while marching in goose-step fashion. At the end of this maneu- ver the band lined up to make a caricature of Hitler while the peo- ple n the stands sang the song. This was the first victory Ohio State has won over Crisler-coached teams. The all-time record for these two perennial rivals is 25 wins for Michigan, 11 victories for the Buck- eyes and 3 ties. yard gain as he somersaulted trying to hold on to the ball, and on the following play broke through the center of the Buckeye line for a thirteen-yard gain. All-American Ed Frutig was in the stands to cheer his Wolverine team- mates. Frutig, who is now a pilot in the U. S. Navy, is on his way to Grosse Ile, Mich. Most press box scribes thought that Bob Chappuis, Michigan half- back, was the best passer of the day. Time and again the 170-pound sophomore was rushed by the Buckeye forward wall, but he con- tinued to hit his mark with excel- lent aerials. The scalpers took a real beating on today's game. Most of them held on to their tickets until this morning in order to command the highest prices, but the heavy rain made the pasteboards worth a dollar apiece be- fore the game. UCLA Tops Huskies on Lute Score, 14-10 LOS ANGELES, Nov. 21.-(YP)-The UCLA Bruins snatched victory from an embattled crew of Washington Huskies in the last minute of play today, recovering a wildly-bouncing bad pass from center and emerging with a 14 to 10 decision that kept them in the race for the Pacific Coast football title. Walt Harrison's wild = snap-back eluded Bob Erickson from the one- yard mark, rolled to the 10 and the ever-alert Bruin end, Milt Smith, swarmed on it to kill Washington's golden chance for victory. UCLA looked like a championship football team only in the first few minutes of play and failed to make a single first down in the second half. Don Boor, who appeared late in the fourth quarter as the second Wolverine fullback to see action made a rather sensational debut. ,He made a great catch for a 24 (Continued from Page 1) through the air. The two forward walls battered one another from start to finish, 'and for the most part the gains by the hard running backs were limited in yardage. Up front for Michigan, it was again Al Wistert, booming for All-American recogni- tion, who led the fighting but unfor- tunate Wolverines. Six of the Maize and Blue linemen, Phil Sharpe, Wis- tert, Pregulman, Julie Franks, Bill Pritula and Elmer Madar played the entire 60 minutes, as they have been forced to do so often in the past. But today their ironman stint was to no avail. Capt. George Ceithaml, too, was in the thick of the battle for the whole time. Bucks Too Speedy The Buck dye backfield, paced by fullback Gene Fekete and two fleet halfbacks, Paul Sarringhaus and Les Horvath, had too much speed for the reserveless Wolverines. Time and again they, outran the Michigan de- fenders for the only large gains of the contest. Ohio State jumped off to a touch- down early in the secord period for a lead that was never relinquished. Af- ter the ball had see-sawed back and forth for the entire opening quarter, the Bucks received the first scoring break of the day, and turned it into a wildly-cheered score, three plays later.- With the ball on the Michigan 31, Tom Kuzma, who was handicapped by the slippery turf throughout, dropped back to ;punt. But Chuck Csuri, a great tackle for the Bucks to- day, broke through the Michigan for- ward wall to block the kick on the 21, from which point it bounced out of bounds on the Wolverine 35 yard line. Start Aerial Thrust The Buckeyes then gave the first indication of the terrific aerial bar- rage that was to come. With the Wol- verines in a 7, 1, 2, 1 defense forma- tign to halt the Ohio State running attack, Sarringhaus dropped back and heaved a pass to Horvath on the Michigan 13. Fekete picked up three over right tackle, and then Horvath faded to his left and shot a beautiful strike over the goal line into the wait- ing arms of Sarringhaus. Fekete con- verted and the Bucks were away winging, 7-0. Until the last few minutes of the half, both teams were stalemated around midfield, but then Michigan, banking on the passing arm of sopho- more Bob Chappuis, made a desper- ate attempt to even the count. Start- ing from their own 43, the Wolverines capitalized on Chappuis' tosses to drive deep into Buckeye territory, and only the end of the half halted the Wolverine surge. Six times the sopho- more halfback passed, and five times he hit his receivers. The last flip to Wiese carried the ball all the way to the Ohio State one yard line, but thu gun sounded before another play could be run. OSU Scores Again With five minutes left of the third period, the surging Scarlet and Gray crew increased its lead to 14 points. After Michigan had halted one dan- gerous threat and forced Ohio State back 22 yards in three plays, the Buckeyes against struck through the air over the weak Wolverine pass de- fense for the second score. Taking possession on their own 36, the Bucks hurled Fekete into the line for four yards. Then on the next play Sarringhaus, whose running and pass- ing was above any reproach today, pitched a long one to end Bob Shaw who gathered it in on the Maize and Blue 35 and sidestepping two would- be tacklers skipped unmolested down the east sideline to pay dirt. It was good for 60 yards, and when Fekete converted the Michigan doom seemed sealed. But the Wolverines, fighting mad now, came roaring back on the kick- off to brighten the hopes of their dis- gruntled supporters. Starting from their own 36, they marched all the way to the Buckeye one yard line where Wiese bulleted over right guard for the only Wolverine tally of the day. Two passes, one from Paul White, outstanding Michigan ball carrier in this title winning tilt, to Chappuis that was good for 30 yards and an-t other from Chappuis to Madar put the ball on the Buckeye 20 wherej Spa rtans Ed ge Out W.Va., 7-0 Gingrass' Early Tally Decides Close Contest EAST LANSING, Nov. 21.-P)'A rugged Michigan State College eleven tumbled the Mountaineers of West Virginia, 7-0, in a defensive football battle witnessed by 6,400 fans at Macklin Field today. A Mountaineer fumble midway in the first period paved the way for a 60-yard Michigan State drive and the game's only touchdown. After, West Virginia valiantly held the Spartans for three downs on the one, fullback Morgan Gingrass of State slashed into pay dirt. Halfback Wally Pawlowski, bench- ed three weeks by a knee injury, made a brief appearance to boot the extra point. In snapping a three-game West Virginia winping streak, Michigan State annexed its fourth straight tri- umph over the Mountainebrs, who previously had been defeated only by Boston College and Fordham. It was the season's fourth victory. for the Spartans, who have lost three and tied one.. Spartans Hold Edge Statistically, Michigan State had a wide edge over the outweighed Moun- taineers who kept alternating team units in a vain attempt to wear down the reserve-shy Staters. The. Spar- tans rolled up 234 yards from scrim- mage to West Virginia's 84 and held a 14 to 8 first-down. bulge. West Virginia's best chance came in the first period when halfback Allan Martin lobbed a pair of short passes to Dick McElwee and Charley Schrader to spark a 40-yard thrust to State's 29. The Mountaineers nudged to the Spartan 31 and 35 in the second period but their attack stalled almost then entire closing half. Michigan State's flashy one-two punch-halfback Dick Kieppe and fullback Gingrass-did a thorough job of denting the Mountaineer de- fenses. Gingrass tore. off 23 yards to West Virginia's 30 to start -State's scoring drive, and then banged 17 to the Mountaineer seven to all but clinch the touchdown.

Wiese took it over to battle his way to the touchdown on five successive line smashes. Jim Brieske made the extra point good, and Michigan root- ers had high hopes that a last minute scoring spree would overcome the Buckeye margin. The Wolverines tried to carry these aims to a successful conclusion, but the breaks wouldn't let them. A fum- ble by Chappuis and a pass intercep- tion by Shaw halted Michigan at- tempts before they were hardly start- ed. Wolverines Fumble Again. And it took another Michigan fum- ble to insure the Ohio State victory. After a pass from Chappuis to Ceit- haml gave the Wolverines a first down on theirs own 32. White fumbled while hitting the Buckeye right tackle and guard Bob Jabbusch recovered for the Scarlet and Gray. Once again the Buckeye bombers went into ac- tion, and a heave from Sarringhaus to Horvath resulted in the final score of the pass-dominated encounter. Fekete converted for the third time, and Ohio State had the game and the Conference title sewed up with the thread of the aerial lanes. Michigan, with Don Boor leading the way, made a vain attempt to close the gap, but a Kuzma pass was intercepted by the ever-dangerous Sarringhaus on the Buckeye ten to balk the threat. When they regained the pigskin, the Wolverines drove to the Ohio State 32 but another fum- ble, this time by Kuzma, was again recovered by the Bucks and the game ended two plays later with a jubilant Ohio State band in possession on the Michigan 35 yard line.

Playing before a home crowd of 71,896, the largest of the year, the Buckeyes, led by halfback Paul Sarring- haus, let loose an aerial game that went over the Michi- gan 'Seven Oak Posts,' but never through them. Sarringhaus, after catching a touchdown pass from Les Horvath for the first score then unleashed a 61 yard pass and run for the second goal and a 32 yard for- ward for the final tally. Michigan's lone score came after a 62 yard third quarter march when fullback Bob Wiese plunged over from the one yard line. Outplaying Ohio State on the ground, the Wolverines actually held an advantage of 17-9 in first downs and an edge of 155 yards by rushing. - cans have known them. said Blair Moody in Fri- day's Daily, will soon be wiped out for the dura- tion of the war . ..
