SPECIALLLY PRICED at $43 By HERB RUSKIN Now that the 1947 Wolverine football team has clinched the Western Conference champion- ship, it marks the 15th time that the Wolverines have finished on top or tied for the championship and the sixth time that Michigan has won it alone. Michigan's f irst undisputed championship came in the third year of the Conference's history, 1898, when the Wolverines, coached by Ferbert compiled a 3-0 record in the seven-school confer- ence, edging out Chicago who had a 3-1 record. The Wolverines' football star went into an eclipse until 1901 when the immortal Fielding H. Yost took over the post of head football coach. It was the first of his famous point-a-minute teams and the only Michigan team ever to go through a season unbeaten, untied and unscored upon. The Maize and Blue took the crown that year with a 4 and 0 record. Captained by Neil Snow, the Wolverines went out to the i =' - !+t ,. ,J Exclusive in Ann Arbor Store Hours: 9 A. M. to 5:30 P.M.

The honor goes this time to Joe Watson of Rice Institute at Houston, Texas. Michigan was again represent- ed in this week's selections. Quen- tin Sickels, who was also cited in the poll last week, was chosen this week as the outstanding guard of the nation. Rose Bowl and in the inaugural of that event, smothered the Stanford Indians, 49-0. Michigan repeated in 1902, as they went through the conference year winning five and not suffer- ing a single loss. Michigan and Minnesota tied for the crown in 1902 each win- ning three, while losing none and tying one, marking the third straight year that Yost's team had finished on the top of the heap. The Wolverines slipped to sec- ond the following year and did not win a championship until after they had returned to the Confer- ence. Michigan dropped out of what was then the Big Ten in 1907 and did not return to the fold un- til 1917. It wasn't until 1925, however, that the Wolverines found their way to the top again. The 1925 championship squad was sparked by the famous Benny to Bennie passing combination of Friedman to Oosterbaan. This duo returned again in 1926 to lead the Maize and Blue to an- other victory and their last for Fielding Yost who retired at the end of the 1926 season. It wasn't until 1932 that the Wolverines won again, taking the title with a six and nothing record under the tutelage of Harry Kipke. In 1933, Michigan repeated the previous year's history by coming out on top again, this time winning five, losing none, but tying one. After 1933, Wolverine football fortunes dropped and it wasn't until Fritz Crisler took over the reins in 1938 that they improved. The Minnesota jinx held Michi- gan back several times, until in 1943, Michigan tied Purdue for the crown, their last one until this year. Chikopi Alums Form Nucleus Of Tank quad There's a boy's camp 170 miles north of Toronto, Ontario that has probably done more for Mich- igan swimming teams than any other institution has done, for this is the location of Camp Chikopi, Matt Mann's summer camp. Graduates Form Impressive List The list of graduates from Chi- kopi would fill a book of swim- ming immortals, for since its open- ing in 1920, Mann-handled swim- mers have gone on to become out- standing natators in colleges throughout the world. Matt considers Johnny Schmie- Ler of his 1931-33 squads and Harry Holiday of this year's team as the best men he's ever coached, and both of these stars got their start at Chikopi. Chikopi Alums Aplenty This year's Michigan squad, like many of Mann's teams is studded with Chikopi alumni. In addition to Holiday, Mann has free-stylers Dick Weinberg, Gus Stager, Matt Mann III, and Tommy Coates, all of whom attended Chikopi. Bob Sohl, one of the best breast- strokers in the country, Bill Up- thegrove, and Charley Moss, make up the breaststroke contingent of Chikopi alumni on the Wolverine squad. While Art Johnson teams with Holiday to represent the backstrokers prepped by the staff of the camp. Big Nine Briefs By The Associated Press Purdue Kickers Drill LAFAYETTE, Ind., Nov. 19- Purdue worked on its kicking game today as Coach Stu Hol- comb drilled the Boilermakers for the Old Oaken Bucket Game with Indiana Saturday. Art Haverstock, who has con- verted on 25 of 26 attempts and also has a field goal to his credit, did the place kicking as usual. Fullback George Papach was in his customary role of punter. Taliaferro Through BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Nov. 19 ---Hope that George Taliaferro would be able to carry the ball for Indiana against Purdue neared the vanishing point today as the injured halfback ran eight plays with the second team and then had to leave the field. Chest in- juries hampered both his running and his breathing. Coach Bo McMillin gave the team a defensive workout aimed at stopping Purdue's halfbacks, Harry Szulborski and Norb Adams.. Badgers Scrimmage MADISON, Wis., Nov. 19-The University of Wisconsin football squad continued its non-contact drills today with a dummy scrim- mage session on defense against Minnesota plays demonstrated by freshmen. Coach Harry Stuhldreher said all men on the injured list had returned to action, and named a 36-man travelling squad which will leave Friday for Minneap- olis and Saturday's final Big Nine game. Voigis Shifts Lineup EVANSTON, Ill., Nov. 19-- Northwestern's football squad de- voted most of today's workout to polishing its running attack for the Illinois game at Champaign Saturday. Coach Bob Voigts said that new starters in the lineup against the illini would be Steve Sawle and George Maddock, tackles, and Capt. Vince De Francesca, right guard. The latter has fully re- covered from injuries. Goldberg Takes iMf Tennis Title Harry Goldberg recently cap- tured an all campus Intramural tennis tournament defeating Jim Albert in a best three-out-of-five series.
