Toronto Cut
Victory Stria
By BOB SANDELL
Michigan's hockey team had a
20 home game win streak snapped
during the holidays when the Wol-
verines split a pair of contests
with the powerful University of
Toronto Blues before rolling over
Brown and North Dakota in four
other vacation engagements.
Coupled with rout of McMaster
in the campaign opener, the Wol-
verines now have a season's mark
of six triumphs and only one de-
feat.
THE SERIES with Toronto on
December 16 and 17 was prob-
ably one of the best ever staged
in the Coliseum.,
The Wolverines had to come
from behind in the last five min-
utes to nip the Canadians, 2-1,
in the opener. Gil Burford tied
the score at 15:40 of the final
session and Al Bassey tallied the
clincher at 17:08. Toronto had
scored earlier in the period.
Saturday's contest was a dif-
ferent story as the Blue's fresh-
man goalie, Doug Orr, was simply
unbeatable, and the result was a
4-2 victory for the visitors. Wally

Grant and Neil Celley tallied the
only markers for Michigan.
ALL-AMERICAN and Wolver-
ine Captain Wally Grant put on
a one-man scoring show in the
opener with Brown University on
December 21 at the Coliseum.
The Wolverines won 7-3, and
Grant chalked up three goals
for the "hat trick" and an as-
sist all in the third period. Ron
Roberts, Bob Heathcott, Celley,
and Burford racked up the other
goals for the home squad.
The series finale the following
night found the Wolverines on
the long end of a 7-5 score, with
Jack McDonald and Paul Mila-
nowski sharing the net tending
duties.
* * *
CELLEY paced the attack with
two goals and Lenny Brumm,
Ross Smith, GranthHeathcott,
and Roberts each pitched in with
single markers.
After Christmas the Wolver-
ines traveled out to Grant Forks
to play a highly regarded Uni-
versity of North Dakota sextet.
The Nodaks had a host of ex-
perienced veterans in their line-
up including Russell and Prince
Johnson, two brothers who play-
ed for the American Olympic
team last year.
But the Sioux fell before a spir-
ited Wolverine attack 8-4 in the
first night and 6-0 the following
evening with Goalie MacDonald
turning in his first shutout of
the year.
The crack Celley-Burford-Grant
combination sparked the winner's
onslaught. Burford garnered four
goals in the first contest for his
second "hat trick" of the young
season and two more in the finale.
Celley hit the nets for one in
the first encounter and two in
the second, while Grant had a
goal and assists on three others.
Sophomore Heathcott got one
in each game and Joe Marmo a
pair in the curtain raiser.

He's eluding stalwart center Les Richter (on the ground) and heading for Paul Baldwin (34) who
hauled him down on the Bears' own 40 yard line. Hamilton played no small part as the Scarlets

champion in the Tournament of Roses.

WolverTines Prepare
For BigTenCagers
By TED PAPES
Michigan's basketball team, in preparation for the coming Big
Ten championship race, undertook an ambitious holiday exhibition
program and emerged with a record of three victories in five games
played.
The Wolverines now have won six while losing three this season.
IT WAS A CASE of glory at the start and at the finish of the
two week Christmas recess with some unfortunate experiences sand-
wiched between for the barnstorming quintet.
On December 19th Michigan handed North Carolina State,
last season's Southern Conference titlist, its first 1949 defeat in
five contests by a score of 54-46. Balanced scoring by Wolverines
Don McIntosh, Leo VanderKuy, and Hal Morrill enabled their
team to overcome a 10 point halftime deficit and accomplish the
upset.
One night later it was an entirely different story, however, as
the Wolfpack bounced back to square accounts and smash Michigan,
63-52. By way of proving its worth, State went on to capture the
Dixie Holiday Tourney, defeating Penn State, 50-40 in the finals.

AFTER AN ABBREVIATED Yule celebration at home, the Wol-

two charity tosses for a two point
lead that was maintained by a
Suprunowicz free throw in the
last 33 seconds, giving the Wol-
verines a 49-47 nod.
At the close of the meet an
all - tournament squad listed
Suprunowicz on the first five
and VanderKuy on the second.
Taking everything into consid-
eration the campaign was fairly
successful in that it proved Mich-
igan can hold a winning percent-
age in road games and that the
Wolverines are able to survive
close finishes. In the five games
Suprunowicz scored 65 points and
VanderKuy 63.
Another bright spot was the
prominence of Murray at guard,
who surprised the opposition with
a creditable total of 41 markers,
giving Michigan a solid scoring
balance.

In the first round clash they
were bracketed with Missouri,
and a climactic field goal by a
Tiger sophomore in the final 26
seconds of play provided a 47-46
edge overthe visitors.
Again Michigan had the dub-
ious distinction of losing to a
good team as evidenced by the
fact that Missouri eventually won
the meet, dealing Colorado its first
loss in nine games, 62-51, in the
semi-finals, and turning back Ok-
lahoma in the windup.
AS A SIDE ISSUE, a :consola-
tion playoff was staged between
the four first round losers. The
Wolverines fashioned tvo story-
book finishes to salvage fifth place
in the tournament.
Chuck Murray's basket with
only 28 seconds remaining to
play subdued Nebraska, 67-65,
in a game which proved that
Michigan has some potential
offensive might.
Mack Suprunowicz riddled the
opposing defense to gather 22
points while his teammate Van-
derKuy was dropping in 19. The

latter notched 11 free throws to
tie the existing one game record
for the meet.

TWENTY-FOUR hours later it
