WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1946 THE MICHIGfANDAIL PACE THFtUE I U - - -- - - Chappuis Paces Big Nine Backs Northwestern Trio Rates ini Top Ten; Rainrondi Throws for Most Yardage CHICAGO, Oct. 22 -(&)- Official Big Nine statistics, listing Michi- gan's Bob Chappuis as the league's individual offensive leader with 358 yards in three games, ranked Northwestern's Vic Schwall, Art Murakowski and Frank *Aschenbrenner among the top eight gainers. The remarkable thing about the Wildcat ball-carrying trio is that their yardage mainly has resulted from rushing, a department in which Coach Lynn Waldorf's explosive Purple excelled in Big Nine wins over Wisconsin and Minnesota and a 14-14 deadlock with co-leading Mich- igan. Murakowski, 195-pound freshman fullback who looms as the Conference rookie of the season, has battered 215 yards in three games for the league's biggest rushing total. He hasn't produced a yard by passing, yet ranks sixth in total offense. Schwall, top Conference scorer with 26 points on three touch- downs and eight conversions in as many tries, has hammered 208 yards and gained 21 on passes for a fourth-place total of 229. Aschen- brenner has rushed 169 yards and added 41 tossing aerials for 210, good for an eighth-place tie. Among players who have carried the ball 20 or more times, Fullback Ed Cody of Purdue has the best average of 6.6 with 139 yards in 22 at- tempts. He is followed by Schwall and Chappuis with 6.3. Art Duffelmeier of Illinois, with 120 yards in 20 tries, has 5.9, while Murakowski and Asch- enbrenner are tied at 5.8. Iowa's Bob Sullivan and Dick Hoerner, who may cause Notre Dame plenty of trouble in their meeting at Iowa City Saturday, have averaged 7.4 and 5.3, respectively, in three league games. Sullivan, however, has carried the ball only 18 times for 134. while hard-hitting Hoerner has been the busiest Conference back, making 40 trips for a 213 net. . Although Chappuis is the nominal passing leader with 10 com- pletions in 15 tosses for 169 yards and a .667 percentage, actual pace- setter is brilliant Ben Raimondi of Indiana's bedraggled defending champions. Raimondi has connected on 30 of 61 flips for 358 yards Army Retains Number One Grid Rankitnx NEW YORK,, Oct. 22--OP)-Army, which gained adde-d prestige by its 48-14 thumping of Columbia, was installed more firmly than ever as the nation's outstanding collegiate gridiron power today by writers who voted in the Associated Press' week- ly poll to select the ten top teams. Of the 156 experts who partici- pated, 112 of them picked Coach Earl (Red) Blaik's Black Knights as the No. 1 team outright and ano- ther split his ballot, giving Army, Notre Dame, Texas and Pennsyl- vania a share in his first-place vote. Standings of the top ten teams (first place votes in parentheses) 1-Army (112 1-4); 1,4991/ 2-Notre Dame (21 1/4); 1,3311/ 3-Texas (13 1/4) ; 1-2621/ 4-Tennessee (6) ; 898 5-UCLA (2); 800 6-Pennsylvania (1/4); 6991/ 7-Georgia; 548 *-8--Northwestern; 418 *-8-Michigan; 418 10-North Carolina; 110 (*-Tie for eighth place.) LAW'SGOT 111H Studies Force Freihofer To Give Up Griidirou Caer Walt Freihofer, Wolverine guard, revealed yesterday that he had been forced to give up his football career due to the pressing demands put upon him by his studies in Law School. Freihofer, a 21-year-old, six foot, 180-pounder from Indianapolis, re- turned to the Michigan gridiron scene this year after a three-year tour in the armed forces. His last season with the Wolverines came in 1942, the year of the famed "Seven Oak Posts" and the 32-20 triumph over Notre Dame. The 'Hoosier line-man was the Cage Tryouts Face Season's First Cut Today Some unhappy hoopsters will trudge dejectedly off the Yost Field House court today, as Coach Ozzie Cowles breaks the sad news of the year's first cut in personnel. This has been necessitated, ac- cording to Cowles, because of the surprisingly large turnout of 105 candidates, a new record in Michi- gan basketball annals, which has forced the team to hold its work- outs in the field house and I-M building simultaneously. Today's issuance of walking pa- pers will not be extensive because Cowles is anxious to retain all can- didates that exhibit any degree of basketball proficiency. Although the team has been prac- ticing since Oct. 16, Coach Cowles has not held any intra - squad scrimmages. In the daily two hour sessions, he has been stressing fun- damentals. 4'. STILL TOPS ... Bob Chappuis, Wolverine halfback, retained the Conference lead in total offense for the second successive week. t-MiSPOBITFOLIOI Harris Named Yank Manager Report Decision Made At Secret Conference NEW YORK, Oct. 22-(,P)-The Daily News says it has learned that Stanley (Bucky) Harris has been se- lected as manager of the New York Yankees and Charley Dressen, coach of the Brooklyn Dodgers, ,has been named as his No. 1 aide. The News said the decision was made here today in a "hush-hush session" attended by Larry MacPhail, president of the Yankees; Will Har- ridge, American League President, Harris and Dressen. ( Harris, one-time "boy wonder" and former manager of the Wash- ington Senators, was signQd by the Yankees last month as an untitled administrative assistant to MacPhail. The News said it had learned Har- ris was tendered a two-year con- tract at $40,000 a year. Reached soon after the first edi-, tion of the News had hit the street, Arthur (Red) Patterson, assistant to MacPhail, said the Yankee prexy "had been sick in bed all day with a touch of the grippe." "Somebody obviously is fishing," Patterson added. only reserve who saw consistent re- placement action during the year He spelled Bob Kolesar at guard. Michigan at Full Strength Beyond Freihofer's absence, the Wolverines will be at full strength for the all-important clash with Illi- nois this Saturday. Guard George Burg, who suffered an ankle injury in the Iowa game, is reported ready for duty. Jack Weisenburger is also slated for action despite a fractured jaw received in the Army battle. In the daily scrimmage sessions, meanwhile, Coach Fritz Crisler has again been stressing a pass defense. This department has been a weak spot in an otherwise strong Wolver- ine eleven. The Illini staged an ex- cellent aerial attack in last Satur- day's last minute decision over Wis- consin's Badgers, and Crisler is ex- pecting the Champaign visitors to fill the air with some tricky tosses this Saturday. Eliot's Team Ready Coach Ray Eliot's team will come to Ann Arbor primedstoa peak. Any team; which combines the running threat of Buddy Young, Paul Pat- terson, and Julie Rykovich, with the passing of Perry Moss can be dan- gerous offensively. The line that Eliot has fashioned this year is big and rugged. The ends are one of the strongest spots on the team, with Sam Zatkoff, a Ham- tramck sophomore, and Ike Owens holding starting berths. and .492. Sharp-shooting Ben's net offensive gain of 330 him second to Chappuis in total yardage., Because of Raimondi's accuracy, the Hoosiers own places in pass receiving, led by End Joe Mihajlovich with yards places the top three 12 catches for 138 yards.
