Coach Ben Oosterbaan's injury dilemma finally took a ridiculous turn after the game last Saturday.. His assistant, J. T.

In the Wolverine front line, which finally became prominent after seven games, the fact has been generally overlooked that Carl Kreager has earned for him- self the full time offensive center assignment. Kreager moved up when John Padgen was injured in the early season and has held on tenacious- ly. The team observed its usual Monday procedure yesterday.

LIKES HIS RACQUET: Kramer's 'Big Game'Tops Pro Net Bill MINNEAPOLIS - (A) - Grey- haired, taciturn Bernie Bierman yesterday asked to be relieved of his football.coaching duties at the University of Minnesota, thus end- ing an 18-year career that includ- ed the brightest era of Gopher history. He will stay until the end off the year. * * * . HIS REQUEST.came in the mid- dle of the poorest season ever en- dured by a Bierman-coached team. The Gophers haven't won a game this year, losing six and playing a 7-7 tie with Michigan. They have lost to Washington, Nebraska,t Northwestern, Ohio State, Iowa1 and Michigan State in that order. Bierman took over as head coach at Minnesota in 1932, suc- ceeding Fritz Crisler who moved to Princeton and later to Michi- gan as head coach. Crisler now is Wolverine athletic director. In the years that followed, Bier- man's teams achieved the top posi- tion among th nation's squads five times and captured the western conference championship six times. They have enjoyed five un- defeated years during which they put together two undefeated strings of respectable duration- one of 21 victories from 1933 to 1936 and the other of 17 games in 1939 to 1941. Bierman's formal statement, handed out at an early-morning conference, said in his usual word- thrifty style "I have reque'sted that I be relieved of the fotball coach- ing duties at the end of the year." HE ADDED that the poor show- ing of this year's team had nothing to do with his decision and that he had no offers to other jobs under consideration. Speculation that started nn- mediately after the announce- ment took two courses. One con- cerned a possibe successor and the other was whether Bierman would remain at Minnesota in some other capacity. A professor of physical educa- tion, he could remain on the faculty. As football coach he has been receiving $13,500 annually. Director of Athletics Ike Arm- strong said in his statement that "We hope that he will remain with the university in another capa- city." As to a successor, persons close to the athletic department indi- cated there was no one particuler person being considered yet. CLEVELAND -(A)- Lou Bou- dreau, deposed manager of the Cleveland Indians, is going to be given his unconditional release- at his own request. The baseball club's president, El- lis Ryan, made this announcement last night. It means, he said, that Boudreau will be a free agent "in a little over a week from now." Although he was fired as man- ager, Lou still was the property of the Indians. Ryan said- at the time the club was trying to ar- range a Major League manager job for Boudreau-or get him a play job. "But as we've said from the start, we are anxious to cooperate with Lou Boudreau 100 per cent in doing-what he considers best for him. He has requested his uncon- ditional release so he shall have it." The DASCOLA BARBERS Liberty near State Miller's Special Luncheon lic c Offered Every Noon J.D. MILLER'S CAFETERIA 211 South State Street t X 2 A By GEORGE FLINT The- guy with tennis's "big game" will be blasting the ball across the net Thursday night at Yost Fieldhouse as Bobby Riggs' professional tour comes to town. The guy is Jack Kramer, and that style of play has made him the kingpin in the toughest of tennis circuits, the night-after- night, play-for-pay business. KRAMER, who liquidated all opposition in amateur ranks-he was National Singles champ in 1946 and '47-is out to prove that he's Mr. Big among the pros, and so far has provided pretty substan- tial evidence. In his cross-country tour against Bobby Riggs in 1948-49 he overcame an early lead by the old master and wound up with a large margin of victories. Last year, a new and challenging star faced big Jake in Riggs' first attempt at the touring pro busi- ness. Roaring out of the amateur ranks after winning the National Singles title two years in a row, Richard (Pancho) Gonzales came up to the professional game to test his blistering forehand, bril- liant overhead game, and explod- ing service against the peerless Kramer. The reason Pancho isn't with the tour this year is simple. Kramer blasted him right off the court, winning 93 out of 121 matches. - * BIG JAKE is a tireless perfec- tionist, with almost as great a serve as Gonzales, and a steady, Net Sales Brisk Tickets for Thursday's pro- fessional tennis exhibition are on sale at the Athletic Admini- stration Building and on cam- pus.

The avid tennis fans say that the only thing to equal Kramer's forehand is Kramer's backhand. His motto on the court is "press, press, press." It isn't in his makeup to play a defensive game, though he's probably fast enough to beat two-thirds of the present amateur crop with that type of play. The only way to play Kramer is the way Riggs unsuccessfully tried to topple him from tennis pre- Crisler Rates CadetsTops CHICAGO -()- The present Army team is better than the ones of the Blanchard-Davis era. This football pronouncement came out of the Herald-American Quarterback meeting yesterday. The paean of praise for' the pre- sent Army team came from ath- letic director Fritz Crisler of Mich- gan, which bowed to the Cadets in a stirring battle at New York this season. eminence. A tireless retriever with amazingly accurate ground strokes, Riggs relied on his speed and experience to turn the tide. But it wasn't enough. Bobbin' Bobby found that his age and the devastating power of Kramer's "big game" were too much to his detriment over the gruelling exhibition stretch. S* * RIGGS, NOW on the promoting end, thinks he's found the man with the right type of game and the right type of speed to give Kramer a neck-and-neck battle this season. He's Pancho Segura, a bandy- legged Ecuadorian with an un- orthodox technique and an amazing facility for returning unreturnable shots. Pancho beat big Jake last year at the National Pro Tourney. He claims that proves he's the best in the professional game. In the process of their current tour, Kramer may disprove that state- ment.
