FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1949 F, THE MICHIGAN DAILY P 1'RIDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1949 THE MICHIGAN DAILY P o 0s Grab Ftirst it1 e b n, Win < -Il WOE ,'WORRY, AND wonderment have been invading the Michigan camp in steady and ever-increasing nunmbers. It all began, of course, last Saturday when the Wolverines were held to a 7-3 win over a strong and determined eleven from * Michigan State. It continued to grow early this week when the Followers of Old f King Football began looking at the statistics. Stanford had piled up 93 points in two starts while Michigan had managed to get only seven in its one outing. The Indians had rolled up an average of 471.5 yards per game, as Michigan totaled an insignificant-looking 204 yards. WHILE FOKF were thinking these figures over, another disturb- ing factor, the weather, came into the picture. The temperature hovers close to ninety out in sunny California while the Wolverines have seen nothing that even resembled heat in any of their days of practice. Sixty minutes under such unfamiliar and adverse conditions could spell defeat for the Wolverines. Yesterday the situation looked even blacker when Michigan's ace passer, Charlie Ortmann, hurt his right foot and wore a slipper as he boarded the plane which flew the team westward. The men who make a business of the autumn sport lost enough confidence in the Wolverines to drop their estimate from twenty points to just one touchdown, but still most of them said Michigan would win. HOWEVER, OUT ON the West Coast (where the temperatures are hot, and the victory-fever even more so) some have gone so far as to predict a loss for the Maize and Blue. Dick Hyland in the Los Angeles Times went out on a limb and said, "Stanford will stop the Wolverines winning streak at 24 straight games by giving them a licking." He explains that Michigan is living on its reputation. "Once was ain't now and right now Michigan ain't," he verbalizes. Hyland lefthandedly admits that Michigan might come out on top, "but it will then be a Stanford weakness rather than a Michigan strength which is operating, Stanford can LOSE this game itself; Michigan cannot WIN it by itself. It could be I am daffier than the proverbial loon and that Oosterbaan's awesome armada will prove it before 5 p.m. comes aroundSaturday in the Stanford stadium." Let's hope so!
