HERE'S MUD IN YER EYE!
Intrasquad Scrimmage
Tests 150-lb. Gridders

Wolverines Entrain Today for Purdue Contes

By MERLE LEVIN
Driving 80 yards in the last
minutes of play the "Blue" squad
of Michigan's lightweight gridders
splashed to a 13-6 victory over the
"Reds" as the 150-pounders staged
their first intra-squad game yes-
terday.
Looking more like a "Dark
Brown" than a "Blue," fullback
Bud Marshall slithered six inches
to score the deciding touchdown
after a 40-yard pass play from
quarterback Jerry Burns to end
Frank Whitehouse had brought
the slippery pigskin to the five
yard stripe.
Despite the bog-like condition
of the field Coach Cliff Keen got
his first chance to observe his
charges under actual game con-
ditions and what he saw was al-
ternately pleasing and not-so-
pleasing.
On the debit side Keen saw the
usual ragged spots that are always
so evident in early season scrim-
mage. He also saw penalty after
penalty called on his inexperi-
enced gridders, many of whom
were playing under the watchful
eyes of officials for the first time.
Most frequently called penalty
was that old bugaboo "offsides"
but several times a lineman un-
familiar with the line of scrim-

mage drifted back too far and
found his team penalized for hav-
ing too many men in the backfield.
On the credit side Keen saw a
possible answer to the question
of who will team with Capt. Don
O'Connell at guard in the
ruggedeplay of Jere Agle and
Herb Taggert two newcomers to
this year's squad.
Jim Armelogos, another new-
comer, turned in a fine job at
center and John Picard did like-
wise at end.
Another end, the veteran
Whitehouse, got off several long
boots despite the handicap of
kicking a wet, soggy ball and fur-
ther demonstrated that he will be
a handy man to have around by
making several scintillating
catches.
The best showing however
was reserved for a pair of quar-
terbacks. Continuing their red-
hot battle for a starting berth
both Jerry Burns and Ed Morey
handled the wet pigskin as
though they had a liberal help-
ing of glue applied to their
hands.
Morey, who did the master-
minding for the "Reds," displayed
uncanny marksmanship in the
passing department.

Why should you
choose your
FALL CLOTHES
today?
Because every day you put it off
diminishes your chances of finding
just the clothes you'd like best.
Our selection of fine WORSTED-
TEX clothes is much the most at-
tractive and comprehensive we've
had for six years . . . but the
choicest fabrics are still limited
. . . imports especially . . . and a
week from now you may discover
that some other fellow has beaten
you to the very ones you would
have liked most. Why let that hap-
pen . . . when you can avoid it
by making your selection today.

By MURRAY GRANT ... Daily Sports Editor
THIS COLUMN'S SHAKY limb suffered a few major breaks last
week when we managed to pick only six out of the top ten games
in the nation.
Northwestern surprised us, much as it did the rest of the sports-
writers, as the Wildcats completely smothered Purdue's vaunted aerial
attack and defeated the Boilermakers, 21-0. The Trojans of USC'
failed to come through in the style we hoped and Ohio State scored
another victory for themselves.
NAVY, AGAIN DIDN'T meet expectations and fell to Cornell,
13-7; and Duke played Tennessee to a standstill for a 7-7 tie, which
made our pick of Duke look sad.
Thus for two weeks, we've picked 14 out of 20, with one tie, for
a season's record of .737. Now let's look at the ten top games on
this weekend's docket.
* * * *
MICHIGAN-PURDUE--It's do-or-die for Stu Holcomb's Boiler-
makers tomorrow, as they've dropped their first two starts. This isn't
red hot for a team that's supposed to be one of the powers in the Big
Nine. It'll be tough for the Wolverines, but Bennie Oosterbaan has
been bringing his squad along in preparation for this one. The team
has declared this "Boilermaker Week" and we'll stick along with the
Wolverines by a couple of touchdowns.
MINNESOTA-NORTHWESTERN-In Evanston the Wildcats are
screaming that they are going to take the Big Nine title. Both teams
have won their first two starts and Northwestern looked mighty good
against Purdue last week. We like the Purple's backfield, but the
Gopher line is deadly. Still if Northwestern performs as well as they
did last week it will be the Wildcat's third win. We'll take Northwest-
ern by the narrowest of margins.
NOTRE DAME-MICHIGAN STATE-George Guerre and his
crew are good, but not as good as their schedule makes them look.
They trimmed Hawaii, but Notre Dame plays with more than
ukeleles. Biggie Munn will be sorry he scheduled this one. Notre
Dame in another Leahy larruping.
OHIO STATE-IOWA-The Bucks are better than they were sup-
posed to be. Two victories over strong foes have made them a defi-
nite threat. Iowa, on the other hand, is one of the have-not clubs inc
the Conference. However, this one looks too easy. We'll take Iowa in
the upset of the day.
INDIANA-TEXAS CHRISTIAN-Indiana will still be undefeated
after this one. The Long Horns are not as strong as they have
been and won't do too much. Indiana, warming up for Ohio State.
WISCONSIN-CALIFORNIA-After last week's upset win over
Illinois the Badgers have regained much of their lost confidence.
However, they'll need more than confidence against the Bears. Cali-
fornia is Rose Bowl bound and nothing is going to stop them. The
first West Coast Club to take a Big Nine foe will be California.
ILLINOIS-ARMY-This year the Cadets have another power-
house and the Illini aren't counted on for much trouble in the Big
Nine. We'll stick by Earl Blaik as his Cadets start rolling.
* * * *
COLUMBIA-YALE-The Lions had their tails twisted by Har-
vard, the "Michigan of the East" last week. Yale had a tough time
beating Connecticut. And yet with Columbia favored, Harman Hick-
man, Yale's new mentor, will have the Bulldogs up for this one. We'll
take Yale in another upset.
DTKE-NAVY-Navy is on the way to another dismal year
and a win now might snap them out of their nose-dive. We've
missed out on Navy twice, but we'll take our third swing in hopes
of connecting. So it's sink or swim with Navy.
RICE-SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA-In one of the major inter-
sectional battles of the weekend, Rice faces Southern Cal. in the
Trojans' back yard. Rice lost to LSU, 26-13 while Ohio State trimmed
the Trojans, 20-0. Both teams will be fighting to redeem themselves,
but we think Rice will do the face saving. Rice in a narrow squeak.

It was a wet bunch of football-
ers that wearily trudged to the
locker room last night down at
Ferry Field, but they were just
starting on theutoughest phase of
the current campaign.
Bennie Oosterbaan and 36 of his
charges will leave this morning
for Chicago where they will en-
gage in one last practice session
before starting on the tail end
of the trek to Lafayette.
* * *
AND THEN the festivities be-
gin. The Boilermakers' Bob De-
Moss has been touted as the chief
threat to Michigan's 16 game
winning streak and the Wolverine
yearling mentor has had thevteam
sharpening up on its pass defense
all week.
Not that the aerial bloc was
in sad shape last week, but if,
like Northwestern, the Wolver-
ines can keep DeMoss from

cotte, Michigan's shifty tailback,

STOP DEMOSS!
Grid rills Stress Pass Defense

hitting his receivers, the job of
gaining number 17 will be that
much easier.
From the looks of things, Mish-
igan is going to hurl a passing
barrage of its own at the Boiler-
makers in seeking the third win
of the season. Chuck Ortmann,
Chuck Lentz, and WallyTeninga
have shared the brunt of the
flipping duties in practice and are
certain to try their luck Satur-
day.
HARRY ALLIS, who had a per-
ect day against Oregon in the con-
version assignment, booted them
againryesterday in practice and
will probably get the nod Saturday
if and when the Wolverines start
racking up the six-pointers.
Wally Teninga will probably
keep the punting assignment.
He got off some long spirals in
-practice yesterday and did a

good job against the Ducks las
week.
Speedy Gene Derricotte, Mic]
igan's hard-luck tailback, will r
main in Ann Arbor for treatme
on his injured left knee. If he r
sponds, there is an excelle
chance that he will be ready f
the Wildcats when they inva
Ann Arbor next week.

Szulborski and Adams have go
reason to enter the contest opt
mistically.
But Michigan has a little i
the way of unusually fine talen
with its Elliott, Koceski, Ort
mann, Rifenburg, et al.
With this score in mind, wh
the final tally of the Northwes
ern-Minnesota game comes in, tI
sports fan will have a preview
coming events in Conference foo
ball.
