SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1948 THE MICHIGAN DAILY IPAGE SEVEN~ Wolverines Set To Keep Home Goal Ur crossed By PRES HOLMES The Wolverines want to win Saturday's game against Illinois; they want more than that-they won't settle for less than a shut- out. Although Minnesota ruined the boast that not one touchdown had been scored through the Wolver- ine line this year, another record still .remains intact. For over a year no one has crossed the goal line in Michigan's stadium except a wearer of the Maize and Blue. Minnesota again appeared in the role of spoiler. They pushed across six points last October 25 for the only touchdown scored against the first string- ers, who had been unscored upon at home all last season up until that time. Stanford racked up 13 counters, out they came in the third and fourth quarters against second stringers at best. SINCE THE GOPHER game, for 270 minutes, the Michigan goal line has been rather neglected, or shall we say stoutly defended. In 1927, when Michigan opened its play in the Stadium, they went for four games unde- feated and unscored upon until they met - Illinois. The Illini turned the tables and held the Wolverines scoreless while win- ning, 14-0. Coach Ray Eliot's team has done an excellent job the last couple of weeks making their opponents turn gray with worry, and won- der what they witnessed. MINNESOTA HAD to wait un- til the last quarter to score and win, 6-0. Purdue found more than they bargained for and went back to West Lafayette on the short end of a 10-6 score. Whether or not Illinois is ca- pable of breaking the spell this time can only be definitely stated at supper tonight. Read... Use Daily Classified Ads Trom Ie GIANTSTAND By MURRAY GRANT ... Daily Sports Editor AFTER LAST week's dismal showing of five wins, four losses and a tie, our season's average took a nose-dive to .683, but this is an- other week and the games begin to get rough. * * * * MICHIGAN-ILLINOIS-There should be no comparison between these two teams if you looked at their records. The Wolverines are undefeated, while the Illini have won only from Kansas State and Purdue. But these Homecoming games have a way of surprising you. Still we'll go along with the form sheet and pick Michigan to win their sixth straight by a substantial margin. OHIO STATE-NORTHWESTERN-If the Buckeyes win this one the whole Big Nine will be in a turmoil. There will be a strong possibility of no team other than Michigan finishing with a rec- ord of only one loss There will be a strong smell of roses in the air of this one and we are picking as our upset of the week, the Buckeyes of Ohio State. INDIANA-MINNESOTA-The Gophers proved last week that they are a good ball team and the Hoosiers haven't been able to get going. Bernie Bierman can look for his squad to get back to their win- ning ways with this victory over Indiana. WISCONSIN-IOWA-A couple of Big Nine have-nots get to- gether to see which has less. The Badgers must win one of these days or Mr. Harry Stuhldreher may find himself out of a job. Since we hate to see Harry go, we'll pick the Badgers to break their losing streak. PURDUE-MARQUETTE-The Boilermakers can't seem to get started with only one victory to show for their efforts. But Marquette isn't even in the same league, so Stu Holcomb can add another victory to Purdue's sparse collection. CORNELL-COLUMBIA-One of the top games in he East pits these mighty giants against each other. The Big Red has come up with a fine well-balanced squad while Columbia has been plagued by a lack of reserves. They've dropped two heart-breakers on successive weekends in the closing minutes and this one shapes up as another repeat. If the quarters were shorter it would be the Lions, but as things stand we.'ll go along with Cornell. NOTRE DAME-NAVY-With their suicide schedule Navy will be lucky to win one game. The Irish may not be the greatest football team in the world, but they are good enough to hand Navy her sixth successive loss. CALIFORNIA-SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA-Another sectional battle that will go a long way to picking a Rose Bowl representa- tive. California has it this year and the Trojans may find them- selves confronted by another Wooden Horse when they open the game. California, like Ol' Man River, just keeps rolling along. TEXAS-SOUTHERN METHODIST-Texas has the advantage of playing in their own backyard, while the Mustangs have Doak Walker. Other than that the teams are evening matched. The Mustangs of SMU, however, still look good from this angle. SMU in a tight squeeze.

I At 1408 Washbenaw, the Mighty Maulers from Phi Delta Theta will pit their football talents against the Terrible Terrors from SAE in the ninth annual Mud-Bowl classic which will take place on the bowl- like lawn of the SAE house at 10:00 this morning. Similar to this traditional affair will be the first annual game be- tween Tau Delta Phi and Triangle. Their game, which offers competi- tion to the Washtenaw-Eouth University affair, is being held on Field A at Ferry Field, also at, 10:00 a.m. The Triangles and Tau Delts hopeto make their game a tradi- tional Homecoming feature and have purchased a cup to award to the winning teach each year. At stake in the SAE-Phi Delt fight will be their own version of the Little Brown Jug and the cov- etedBalfour Award. These two houses have been battling each other on Homecoming mornings since 1936, with the exception of the war years. The Phi Delts have limped home six times with the 'Jug' in their possession, while the SAE's have had it on their mantle twice. Last year, a plaque was donated to be awarded to the winning team and the Sigs took initial possession of it by smashing to a 13-12 victory. At halftime, the scene will take on all appearances of a three-ring circus. While the girls from Kappa Alpha Theta battle the Sorosis Sluggers, other entertainment will be provided by the SAE's own ver- sion of the quick-stepping Maize and Blue Band. After the Phi Delts present their Mud Queen, who will reign over the proceedings, the Sigs will come Dave Strack, freshman bas- ketball coach, has announced the start of practice sessions for this year's frosh squad. All freshmen interested in coming out are requested to report to Strack at the I-M Building next Monday, November 1. back with their famous lion tam- ing act. If that isn't enough to r'ake the spectators happy, the fellows will grab the pigskin and take up the game where they left off. Rain or shine, the Phi Delts will be out in full force to attempt to avenge last year's one point heart- breaker. The game promises to be a thriller and loaded with excite- ment until the last lion is tamed So if you want to get warmed up for the Wolverine-Illini clash, drop around and see one of these games. There should be enough exciting football to make the most avid enthusiast happy. ICJ Buy them at WELCOME BACK, OLD GRADS!
