Yesterday's Scorers

Win over Indiana
Keeps Wolverine
Record Spotless
Bump Elliott Paces Scoring Attack
With Two First-Half Touchdowns
By BOB LENT
After being partially stalled for two Saturdays in a row, Michigan's
high scoring grid machine moved back into high gear yesterday by
rolling over a game but out-gunned Indiana eleven 35-0 before a chilled
sellout crowd of 85,937.
Flashing the power and' daring that made them almost a point-a-
minute outfit in their first four games, the Wolverines scored three
times in the first 19 minutes, going all the way each time they got
their hands on the ball.
"Big Three" Make Difference
As expected, it was the Maize and Blue's fine set of backs which

A VCStudy of
Food Facilities
Is Near End
Will Publish Results
Within Three Weeks
The final phase of AVC's study
of students' eating facilities is
fast nearing completion, Andrew
Warhola, committee chairman in
charge of the survey, disclosed
yesterday.
Sampling of student opinion on
Ann Arbor's food from the view-
points of quality and price "should
wind up in two or three days,"
he said. "With this final infor-
mation in," Warhola added, "our
overall interpretation of the re-
sults can get under way. We'll
probably have the whole job done
in two or three weeks."
AVC's campus chapter is seek-
ing to present a unified picture
of Ann Arbor's eating facilities.
A survey already completed looked
into the matter of eating from
the management's point of view.
Owners were questioned as to
food and labor costs and facilities
for handling diners.
When all the results are in and
tabulated, the AVC will make a
series of recommendations for
easing overtaxed facilities and
high food prices. The report will
include information on food qual-
ity, prices and accommodations.
Sampling techniques used by
the AVC are similar to those em-
ployed by the Survey. Research
Center. Forms were drawn up in
consultation with Roe Goodman
and Charles F. Cannell of the
Center.

PREGAME ANTICS:
Ball State Cheerleaders Meet
'U' Squad in Swap Session

By ALICE BRINKMAN
A co-educational Ball State
Teacher's College cheering squad
from Muncie, Indiana met the
Michigan squad in a barefoot
swap session of cheers and tech-
niques before the game yesterday
in the I-M Building.
The BallnState squad boasts
"Mickey" and "Rocky" Howell,
believed to be the only married
cheerleaders in the United States.
Joyce Lillibridge, June Sherpe-
tosky and Dale Kendrick complete
the squad. The group were guests
of the 'Michigan squad at yes-
terday's game.
Compared Notes
In one of the first sessions of
its kind, the two schools met to

WOLVERINE SCORERS-Left to right, Quarterback Howard Yerkes, Halfbacks Bump Elliot and Hank Fonde, and End Dick Rifen-
burg, who scored all of Michigan's touchdowns in their 35-0 rout of Indiana. Yerges tallied first on a five-yard pass from Chappuis.
Elliot followed.with a score on a lateral from Yerges and added another TD soon after on a pass from Chappuis. Rifenburg scored
on another Chappuis toss in the third period. Fonde ended the se oring when he crossed the goal line on a Yerges lateral.

The Ball State team exhibited its
"dance" style while the Michigan
team displayed their tumbling
techniques.
Ball State leaders enthusiastic-
ally tried handsprings, back flips
and diving coached by the Mich-
igan team.
No Women Here
The University squad picked
up some ideas from their guests
but they will not adopt the 3:2
female ratio. Michigan's ten man
squad will remain womanless be-
cause it is the tradition according
to Newt Loken, faculty advisor.
The only Big Nine teams which
boast the feminine touch are
Minnesota and Northwestern. The
Gophers took three girls onto
their squad last year. "North-
western is the only Big Nine team

Academic Freedom
Gathering Is at Union
Delegates from campus and
non-campus groups throughout
the state will gather here today
for part two of Michigan's second
conference on academic freedom-
to round out matters left undone
at the Oct. 18 meeting.
Prof. John L. Brumm, newly
elected chairman of the Michigan
Committee for Academic Freedom
will open the special session at 1
p.m. in the Union. The meeting,
which will deal with violations of
academic freedom and the pro-
posed adoption of the NSA Bill of
Rights, is scheduled to close at 4
p.m.
Every duly constituted organi-
zation on campus is entitled to
three voting delegates and two
non-voting observers at the meet-
ing. Letters of accreditation from
officers will be required of the
delegates.
The MCAF came into being a
statewide conference last May. A
second meeting on Oct. 18 adopted
a constitution and elected an ex-
ecutive board to make it a func-
tioning organization. Matters of
policy are expected to be cleared
up at today's session.

British to Add
Spuds to Long
Rationing List
LONDON, Nov. 8-(MP)-Potato
rationing was added tonight to
the long list of restrictions har-
assing food-short Britons.
Food Minister John Strachey-
following up recent cuts in the
British meat, bacon, sugar and
fats rations-announced that af-
ter tomorrow potato sales will be
limited to three pounds per week
per 'n as the result of a
shortage caused by the summer
drought.
Strachey told a news confer-
ence that floods in the spring
and the summer drought, the
worst in 50 years, had cut the
potato crop 10 per cent below the
average yield. If rationing were
not decreed, he declared "some-
time in the spring potatoes would
have run out, and that would
have been a catastrophe."
Russia Trains

LONDON, Nov. 8-(/P)-The In-
ternational Committee for the
Study of European Questions re-
ported tonight that Russia is us-
ing Soviet military schools to

made the big difference. Michi-
gan's"Big Three" (Bob Chappuis,
Bump Elliott and Jack Weisen-
burger) accounted for 324 of the
Wolverines 363 yards and had a
hand directly in all but one of
their touchdowns.
Chappuis got 103 of these
through the air and 48 on the
ground and passed for three touch-
downs. Weisenburger got 91 yards
in ten tries and Bump picked up
55 and scored twice.
Chap Takes Charge
The Chap personally took
charge of the first , two touch-
downs. After the opening kickoff,
he sparked the team on a 72 yard
sustained march that ended with
one of his passes hitting Yerges for
Iyards and the first score.
After Indiana punted to Michi-
gan's 41, Chap went right back to
work and in nine plays Michigan
had another touchdown. He passed
for 6 to Bump, 22 to Mann, and
then tore 15 yards off tackle to
the four. Four plays later, Elliott
dove over for the second tally.
Four minutes passed and Bump
did it again, only this time it was
Weisenburger who set up the
score. Starting from his own 34,
the slippery fullback took a lat-
eral from Yerges, picked up a key
block by Stu Wilkins and scooted
60 yards down the sidelines all
the way to the Indiana six. Chap-'
puis then passed to Elliott in the
flat and the Bumper dove over.
Brieske made good his third
straight kick and the score read
21-0.
Bump's Turn to Sparkle
In the second half it was Bump's
turn to lead a drive down the field.
This one went 84 yards and took
just eight plays. Thrice the 178
pound red head drove for 10 yards
run a crack and then reeled off a
beautiful 26 yard run to the In-
diana 12.
A fifteen yard penalty nullified
the play, but Chappuis hit Rif-
enburg with a 51 yard pass on the

Freezing Fans
Flaunt Flasks
Foe Funless
Soldiers, Newsmen
Guests of University
A shivering throng of nearly
86,000 yesterday saw the Mighty
Michigan Wolverines shatter. In-
diana 35 to 0.
The mercury took a dive shortly
after the game got underway, as
a chill wind sent the temperature
to the low thirties. And the sec-
ond sell-out throng of the season
got a taste of winter as the
wind whipped scattered snow
flakes across the field.
Flasks Appear
With cold weather in evidence
for the first time this year, the
time honored fire-water flask also
put in an appearance. However,
local police report little traffic in
inebriates. And local liquor stores
revealed that business had fallen
far below last week's sales which
were boosted by the influx of
homecoming alumni.
The lone, red-clad Indiana
cheerleader seemed to be the only
Hoosier rooter able to muster a
cheer after the Wolverine jugger-
naut started rolling. His exhorta-
tions failed to move the 2,400 sad-
dened Indian fans who made the
trek from Bloomington.
G.I. Guests
Special guests of the game to-
day were 80 hospitalized soldiers
from Percy Jones Hospital and 50
veterans from the VA center at
Fort Custer. The men were guests
of the University Athletic Asso-
ciation and the trip was spon-
sored by the Red Cross.

who have appeared on Detroit ra-

Joe Fee, University student
