TUESDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1950 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Big Ten, PCC Disagree on Rose Bowl Contract TWO WINLESS HOOP TEAMS: Once-in-Three-Years Clause Blocks Continuance of Pact 'M' Meets Marquette Tonight By LARRY SPERLING Coach Ernie McCoy will get a good idea of how Michigan will stack up against Big Ten basket- ball competition this season When his charges face Marquette at Yost Field House tonight at 7:30. The Hilltoppers move into Ann Arbor after three straight losses to Western Conference foes: Wis- consin (49-42), Illinois (66-47), and Ohio State (77-56). THESE EARLY season losses may be partially discounted be- cause of the Marquette starting five's youth and inexperience., They are billed as a sopho- more team with height and speed, better than average shooting ability, and a lot of fight. Coach Bill Chandler, who has been coaching Marquette hoop Commissioner Chandler To Retire From Office squads for 21 years, predicted a slow start for his youthful team but expected the Hilltoppers to start improving rapidly once they had several games under their belts.} IF CHANDLER is right his cag- ers should begin to roll any game now. The Hilltoppers have played five contests in the current campaign, combining victories against St. Norbert and Ripon with their losses against Big Ten competition. There is only one returning let- terman on the Marquette starting team. He is Gene Schramka, a 6:2 forward. FOUR SOPHOMORES - Don Marek (6:3), Glen Sievers (6:1), John Powers (6:2), and Grant Wittberger (6:7)-fill out the re- mainder of the team. These five averaging 6:3 give the Hilltoppers a decided ad- vantage under the backboards. Chuck Murray, captain and play-maker, will be back in uni- form tonight after missing the Toledo game because of illness. Reports are that he will be avail- able for only limited duty. Lineups will be as follows: MICHIGAN Position MARQUETTE Jim Skala f. Don Marck Paul Geyer f. Gene Schramka Leo Vander Kuy c. Grant Wittb'g'r ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.-(/P)- Commissioner A. B. Chandler last night announced his intention to retire May 1, 1952. At a secret joint meeting of the American and National leagues today three ballots failed to give Chandler a new contract. ON THE FIRST ballot the vote was 9-7 for renewal; the second was 8-8 and the third was 9-7. ! "It is my intention at the mo- ment to fill out my term. It is my present intention to retire and let the club owners see if they can get somebody else to fill the office." Chandler made the bombshell announcement at a press confer- ence in his hotel room. Twelve of the 16 club owners must agree to a new contract be- fore Chandler could stay on. He has held the job since April, 1945. PASSING UNDER DIFFICULTIES-Rushed off his feet by two Detroit Lion players, Chicago Bears quarterback Johnny Lujack completes a short pass to end Jim Keane, not shown, in first period of game played Sunday at Wrigley Field, Chicago. The Bears won the game, 6-3, giving them the right to meet the Los Angeles Rams next Sunday in the playoffs for the National league title. GRIDDERS BACK TO WORK: Wolverines Bein Rose Bowl Practice CHICAGO-(AP)-The Rose Bowl' game, after next New Year's day, remains a bone of policy conten- tion between the Big Ten and Pa- cific Coast Conference. There were two developments on the bowl game yesterday as far as the Big Ten was concerned in closing its annual winter meet- ing. * * * THE FIRST was that the faculty representatives indicated they will renew the five-year bowl pact which pact expires Jan. 1, only if they can continue their rule which limits a Big Ten team to one Rose Bowl appearance in three years. The PC has no restriction and seeks a compromise for both loops which would permit an ev- ery-other-year appearance of any team. The other was that the ath- letic directors will try to arrange a meeting between full repre- sentations of the two conferences on the subject after the west coast league's winter meeting the first week of January. A faculty representative spokes- man, Kenneth Little of Wiscon- sin, said it was his opinion that the Big Ten would not subscribe to any attempt by the PCC to coax the Western conference to drop its present rule. LITTLE SAID he believed that any effort to change the present set-up could result in a "stand- off" in the Big Ten. A majority vote is required, and Little said present indications are the con- ference would ballot 7 to 3 in fa- vor of renewal on the present ba- sis. The athletic directors intend to poll the conference to see if a full complement of faculty representatives will join them in meeting a similar PCC group to thresh out the bowl subject. At yesterday's closing session, the athletic directors also voted to renew the contract of Commis- sioner K. L. (Tug) Wilson, subject to working out details on salary and term of office. The athletic directors Satur- day granted the commissioner new powers and set a 10-year maximum on the term of office. With his added authority, Wil- son now can punish as well as investigate violations of recruit- ing and subsidization of athletes. The faculty representatives for- merly had sole power to penalize offenders. There was no formal action tak- en by the conference on such sub- jects as television, the sanity coda and problems caused by losses of athletes to military service.

Chuck Murray g.r John Powers Glen Sievers Puck Team Loses May; Princeton Next Opponent Vic Heyliger's Michigan sextet, victorious in its initial outing of the season against the Detroit Au- to Club, will be without the ser- vices of defenseman Eddie May for two weeks because of injuries sus- NNW tained last Friday evening. The hard-charging defenseman suffered two broken ribs when he crashed into the goal post. May will miss two home games with Princeton this week end and two home tilts against Western On- tario on December 21 and 22. HEYLIGER hopes that May will rejoin the squad for the eastern jaunt, which includes tussles with Boston College and Boston Uni- versity. The traveling contingent will leave Ann Arbor on Tuesday, December 26. With a tough Princeton squad We don't get around to Chicago very often, but starting December 22nd through January 3rd, we'll be playing at the BLUE NOTE, 76 West Madison Street. If you plan to spend the holidays in Chicago, won't you drop in and say hello? Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. ELLIOT LAWRENCE, Rosalind Patton and all the boys in the band staring him in the face, the Wolverine ice mentor will have but three defensemen available for duty against the Tigers Fri- day and Saturday. At the moment Heyliger doesn't plan to move a member of the for- ward lines back to the rear guard. This means that the trio of Gra- ham Cragg, Bob Heathcott, and Alex McClellan will share the hea- vy burden of keeping the Michigan goal area free of Nassau attackers. . * s BECAUSE OF May's injury and the ineptness of the Maize and Blue in clearing the puck from their defensive zone, Heyliger plans plenty of work for the de- fense in practice this week. The ice coach is satisfied with the work of goalie Hal Downes, who after a shaky start Friday became a stalwart in the nets as the game progressed. NO IMMEDIATE changes will be made in the forward lines which performed to advantage against the Motor City sextet. Particularly outstanding were the two sopho- more centers John Matchefts and John McKennel. Matchefts along with defense- man Bob Heathcott dented the twine twice. Although the fiery red head McKennell didn't score a' goal, he performed with marked excellence in the playmaking de- partment. By HERB NEIL Michigan's Pasadena - bound gridders resumed practice yester- day afternoon in Yost Field House after a two week layoff. The Wolverines. who have won or shared 18 Western Conference titles, will be seeking their third Rose Bowl victory January 1, 1951, against California.. THE FIRST of these Bowl tri- umphs came in 1902 when one of Fielding H. Yost's "point-a-min- ute" teams crushed Stanford 49-0, while Fritz Crisler's 1948 team re- corded the other triumph by the same 49-0 score, this time at the expense of Southern California. Coach Bennie Oosterbaan ex- pects the team to get in several practicescinside before Leaving for the coast on December 18. The squad will arrive in Pasa- W.ynn, Lemon Top American Loop Hurlers CHICAGO-(AP)-Early Wynn of Cleveland, with his earned run average of 3.20 and an 18-8 won- lost record was the top American League moundsman according to the official pitching records for 1950. Bob Lemon, another Indian, had the most victories, 23, led in strike- outs with 170, pitched the most complete games, 22, as did Ned Garver of the Browns. Lemon al- so hurled the most innings, 288, faced the most batsmen, 1,095, and allowed the most hits, 281. dena on December 20, at which time they will be interviewed and pose for camera men. When the team arrives on the Coast it will go into two-a-day practice sessions at Brookside Park, the traditional training ground for the visiting representa- tive. OOSTERBAAN plans to use the great majority of the 16 practices allotted to Rose Bowl contenders in California where he will be able to work the team outdoors. Oosterbaan stated that the rest following the Ohio State victory was one of the most beneficial things that has hap- pened to the 1950 squad. The layoff allowed the long list of Wolverine injuries to heal quite satisfactorily. The players have not been rest- ing completely, however, with many of them keeping in shape by playing handball, basketball, or engaging in calisthenics. * * * ATHLETIC Director Crisler has returned from Pasadena where he has been completing details for This Week HOCKEY Dec. 15-Princeton Univ. at Ann Arbor at 8:00 p.m. Dec. 16-Princeton Univ. at Ann Arbor at 8:00 p.m. BASKETBALL Dec. 12-Marquette Univ. at Ann Arbor at 7:30 p.m. Dec. 16-Butler Univ. at In- dianapolis, Indiana SWIMMING Dec. 16-Michigan AAU at Ann Arbor at 8:00 p.m. WRESTLING Dec. 16-Toledo Univ. at Ann Arbor at 7:30 p.m. KEEP A-HEAD OF YOUR HAIR Crew-cuts Flat Tops New Yorker 9 Hairstylists - No Waiting The DASCOLA BARBERS Liberty near State the practice program and game with members of the Rose Bowl committee. Crisler also conferred with representatives of the University of California in regard to the game. From Berkeley he brings back news that the Coast is giving its full support to Cali- fornia. The Golden Bears of California believe thatsthey can upset the jinx that has plagued West Coast teams since the Rose Bowl agree- ment was enacted between the Western Conference and Pacific Coast Conference. Since that time the Pacific representative has fallen victim to Illinois, Michi- gan, Northwestern, and Ohio State in the Rose Bowl classic.
