THtRS DA-Y, OCTOBERL 3,1946 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE TM __.. _ __y_ Hawkeyes Loom Dangerous After Impressive Victories c Surprising Iowa Boasts Flashy Back in Tunnell Hoerner, Sullivan, Smith Also Provide Power Punch for Strong Anderson Eleven By DES HOWARTH Just two short weeks ago the Iowa game was regarded as probably tlh softest touch on a none too soft Wolverine grid schedule. Now, however, the Hawkeyes are regarded with more respect by Coach Fritz Crisler and his boys, for the men from the tall corn country have since played two ball games and won both in an impressive manner. Eddie Anderson's outfit got off to a ;-- AP Sport Flashes Dodgers, Cards Clash In Important Playoff Game At Eb bets Field Today Series Date Set good start with an overwhelming 39-0 win over North Dakota. That in itself didn't mean much, but when the Hawks pulled the Big Nine's sur- prise of the week by dumping Pur- due, 16-0, fans and writers began to take notice. Not that we're trying to beat the drum to stir up ticket sales for this Saturday's set-to, but we do think that this game may prove highly interesting. Michigan should win but will probably be hard pressed-much more so than was previously expected. e The main reason for this conclu- sion is the fact that Anderson is back at the helm after three years ab- sence. During those three years the Hawks won only one Conference game. Like all teams this year no one could say with certainty just which teams would be -"weak and which would be strong because of the returning veterans situation. From all indications it would seem that the early season dope was slightly off, failing to take Anderson's return into account and picking Iowa to play doormat for the Big Nine again this year. It's doubtful if Anderson has the makings of another 1939 team which was the surprise of the Conference and lost only one game-that to Michigan. However, the Iowans have a quartet of good backs and a beefy line averaging 208 pounds which may continue to cause trouble for everybody this year. In the Purdue game the Hawk- eyes uncovered a pair of potential stars in Bob Sullivan an'd Negro Emlen Tunnell, both tailbacks. To- gether they were personally res- ponsible for Iowa's 16 points, Tun- nell tallying- the two touchdowns While Sullivan booted a field goal and converted once. Another back to bear watching is Bob Smith who spearheaded the North Dakota game victory. Smith has been around in a football way of speaking, Last year he played ball at Tulsa and also gained experience with the Iowa Seahawks, as did Sul- livan. Dick Hoerner, first string full- back may be remembered for his stellar play here in Ann Arbor four years ago. In the twelve game series to date the Wolverines have a wide advan- tage. The Iowans won the initial en- counter in 1900, 28-5. But they paid dearly for it as they were thumped 50-0 the following year and then. slaughtered 107-0 in 1902. Those were the first of "Hurry-Up" Yost's point-a-minute teams. After a long lapse, the two schools resumed hostilities in 1923. Since then the scores have been, pretty close. Iowa won again 9-3 in 24 and played a scoreless tie with the Wolverines in '29. Probably the most exciting game in the series occurred in the '37 game de- spite the fact neither team was a threat in the Conference race. Fred- dy Trosko's placekick climaxed an uphill fight and 7-6 victory for the Maize and Blue. Tom Harmon and company spoiled an otherwise perfect year for the Hawks in '39. With Nile Kinnick pitching one of the longest passes thrown in the stadium;, the Iowans took an early lead. Then the Wolver- ines capitalized on four breaks and scored each time with the All-Ameri- can Harmon scoring all the points for a 27-7 win. Iowa's last hope was shattered when Tom grabbed a Kin- nick pass on his own five and scamp- ered the remaining 95 for his final touchdown. In 1941 the Hawks came within an ace of upsetting a highly favored Michigan squad in the rain.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 2-(P)-The World Series will open in the Na- tional League entry's ballpark on Sunday, Oct. 6, weather permitting, the office of Baseball Commissioner A. B. Chandler announced today. Walter M. Mulbry, secretary-treas- urer of baseball, said the commis- sioner decided on the opening date after the St. Louis-Brooklyn dead- lockfor the pennant made the two- cut-of-three playoff series necessary. The series was originally scheduled to open Oct. 1. If St. Louis wins the National League pennant, Mulbry said, there will be a day off allowed for travel to Boston following the first two games at Sportsman's Park. If a sixth game is necessary, another day cff will be allowed for travel back to St. Louis. Should Brooklyn win,aMulbry con- tinued, the first six games will be played on consecutive days. * * Texas Open Starts FORT WORTH, Tex., Oct. 2-() -Playing the course they learned by every weary yard as caddies, wee Ben Hogan and tall Byron Nelson start tomorrow as favorites in the second annual $10,000 Fort Worth open golf tournament.

Cronin Wans Limit BOSTON, Oct. 2-(A)-Manager Joe Cronin of the Champion Boston Red Sox today called for the limiting of any major league penant race play-offs in the future to one game. Cronin, who is having headaches trying to keep his Red Sox keyed up for the world series, said a lesson could be learned from the injury to Ted Williams in an exhibition game with American League All Stars yes- terday, which the Sox won 2-0. Williams, who suffered a bruised right elbow after being hit by a pitched ball, was reported recovering sufficiently so that he would be ready for the blue-ribbon classic. But, Cronin asserted, Williams probably would never have been hurt if the Dodgers-Cardinals playoff had been held to one game. Cronin declared it was time the club owners did something about re- vising some uniform play-off sys- tem and suggested one game would be enough to decide ties. Hatten or Highe Will Try To Even Series By The Associated Press BROOKLYN, Oct. 2 - A chast- ened but still combative bunch of Brooklyn Dodgers rolled back, to their home park today for their date with destiny and the St. Louis Card- inals at 12:30 p.m. (CST) tomor- row. Walloped 4 to 2 in the opening tussle of their epic best of three playoff for the National League pen- nant, the "Ferocious Gentlemen" from Flatbush face sudden extinc- tion unless they can come back and square the set at Ebbets Field. Cards Need Only One The Cardinals, hot and rolling and feeling their collective oats after smacking five Dodger hurlers for a dozen hits in yesterday's fray, need only to. repeat the dose to win the flag they virtually were conceded at the season's beginning. Both clubs reached here in mid- afternoon yesterday after making the long overnight ride from the banks of the Mississippi. Perhaps signifi- cantly, the Cardinal Special was a little in the lead all the way. Dodgers Still Confident Although the Dodgers engaged in no whooping and hollering in the aisles, they were not as gloomy a set of young men as might have seemed justified by the jolting they received from Howie Pollett and the rest of the Cards in the opener. Whatever else might be said about them, they still have remarkable faith in their abilities. "What's the use in moaning?" asked Leo Durocher, the old dugout philosopher. "We've felt like this AU-Stars- Top Bosox In Second Contest BOSTON, Oct. 2- (P) -Scoring once in the second, twice in the sixth and again in the seventh an Ameri- can League all-star team today de- feated the pennant winning Red Sox 4-2 to even their three game exhibi- tion series at one victory apiece. The last of the three games, ar- ranged in a hurry to keep the Sox sharp for the World Series will end tomorrow. before, but things have always turned out to be better the next day. Things will look a lot different tomorrow night." Hatten or Higbe To Start Leo claimed today he was unde- cided whether to throw his veteran ace, Kirby Higbe, or the rookie left hander, Joe Hatten, at the Red Birds tomorrow, but Leo was not believed to be as undecided as he made out. Although Manager Eddie Dyer of the Cards was supposed to be wa- vering between Murray Dickson, a right hander, and Harry (The Cat) Brecheen, a portsider, as the man to go out tomorrow and pitch his club into the World Series, the Dodg- ers themselves fully expected to face Brecheen. Most of today's second guessing concerned Durocher's choice of the I college kid, Branca, to pitch the op- ener.
