The two backs, Al Pollard and Vic Pollock, sparked third and fourth period drives that brought the Cadets a smashing 27-6 victory before 67,076 fans in Yankee Stadium. THE WOLVERINES, led by Charlie Ortmann, put on a tremen- dous first half show for the huge crowd, and narrowly missed run- ning the Cadets right off the field before intermission. But beginning late' in the third quarter the Cadets could do no wrong and they took advantage of the breaks to score three quick touchdowns and doom the Michiganders to their second setback in three games. Michigan lost the services of their right halfback, Leo Koceski, early in the second quarter and the Wolverines sorely missed his running and kicking.

Fullback Don Dufek plunged forthe lone Wolverine score while Pollock scored twice and Pollard and JackrMartin once each for the Cadets. Michigan received the kickoff and on the third play nearly lost the ball to Army deep in their own territory. Pete Kinyon finally re- covered Ortmann's fumble on the 13-yard line. MICHIGAN THEN recovered two successive Army fumbles and the second one was costly for the Cadets. Jim Cain, the Army .left half, lost the pigskin on the 34- yard line and Tony Momsen hop- ped on it for the Wolverines. It took the Wolverines just six plays to score from that point. Ortmann pitched to Bill Putich for two first downs to the Army ten. Dufek then took over and hit right guard twice, the second time going into the end zone. The try for extra point was fumbled. Army could get nowhere after the kickoff and the ball changed hands several times before Mich- igan began moving again shortly before the second quarter opened. * * * THEY RECOVERED another Cain fumble on the Army 48 and weren't stopped until they reach- ed the one-yard line. Putich and Ortmann both passed for good gains and for the second time in the contest the Wolverines were on the Army ten with first down. Du- fek went down to the three in two plays, but then Frank How- ell, substituting for the injured Koceski, was caught on the five for a loss. With fourth down Putich went back to pass. He could find no receivers and started off to his right with practically a clear field in front of him. He was brought down with less than a yard to go TWO COACHES, CAPTAIN WAHL IN RANKS: 'M' Grid radition, Boasts 33 All-Americans Heston First Y Of 5 .To Play In Rose Bowl By JOE EPSTEIN Four of Michigan's thirty-three All-American grid stars have per- formed in the annual Rose Bowl classic, and a fifth, Al Wahl, will see action in today's' game. Willie Heston, sensational half- back on Fielding H. Yost's famous "point-a-minute" teams, was a member of the 1902 Wolverine ele- ven which soundly trounced Stan- ford in the New Year's Day con- test by a 49-0 score. * * * HESTON was nominated for an All-American slot by Walter Camp in 1903 when Camp began his long reign as Dean of the All-Ameri= can team selectors, and was chosen by Camp on the 1904 squad as well. The 1948 team relied heavily on the services of three All-Americans -halfbacks Bob Chappuis and Bump Eiliott and end Dick Rifen- burg. Chappius had one of the best days of his very successful career, establishing a new Rose Bowl record for total offense. Michigan's first All-American, selected in 1898 by Casper Whit- ney of HARPER'S WEEKLY, was the great Wolverine center of that year, W. R. Cunningham. s * " IN 1907, Adolph "Germany" Schultz, acclaimed by many as the greatest center ever to wear the Maize and Blue, was selected as Michigan's third All-American. Al- bert Benbrook, Michigan's huge 6' 6" guard, was named to both the 1909 and 1910 teams. The first Wolverine end to be honored as a Camp All-Ameri- can was Stanfield Wells, another member of the 1910 team. After a three year lapse,/James Craig became the sixth Michigan All-American. Craig was followed by another halfback, John Maul- betsch, who was named on the 1914 team. * * . TWO OF THE members of the 1917 team earned berths in foot- ball's most exclusive club; they were fullback Cedric Smith, and' Ernest Allmendinger, a guard. In 1918, Wolverine halfback Frank Steketee inherited Smith's posi- tion. Michigan, after another three year lapse, again began produc- ing All-American gridders. Er- nie Vick, in 1921, began a Wol- verine domination of the center slot which was to produce some of the greatest pivot men in the.! history of football. Tn 499WarvKinr k 7hn 1af t Harry Newman, was selected as an All-American. CHARLES BERNARD was the sixth Michigan center thus honor- ed. Also chosen to the All-Ameri- can squad was Francis Wisert, the first of three brothers who were to keep the nafnes of Wistert and Michigan continually in the foot- ball headlines. Ralph Heikkeneri, performing at the guard slot, started the Michi- gan football Renaissance when he was chosen to the 1938 All-Ameri-I enviable gridiron history, and a man named by many as the great- est back of all time. He was, of course, Thomas Harmon,. who led the Wolverines to two highly suc- cessful seasons. Selected along with Harmon in 1940 was end Ed- ward Frutig. Harmon's running mate, full- back "Bullet Bob" Westfall, suc- ceeded Harmon to the All-Amer- ican team in 1941. In 1942, the Wolverines again berculosis, and Alb'ert Wistert,i brother of Francis; and of Alvin, All-American tackle in 1948 and 1949. ONCE AGAIN, in 1943, Michigan produced two All-Americans. These 1943 grid immortals were. tackle; Melvin Pregulman, one of the f a- mous line known as the Seven Oak Posts, and hard-plunging fullback, William Daley. MAILED ANYWHERE ULR1CH'S BOOK STORE 549 E.

The present Wolverine grid mentor was honored on the 1925, 1926 and 1927 teams; in 1926 he was joined by the pass- ing half of the renowned combi- nation, Benny Friedman. * * * THEN, IN 1928, Ot.- Pomme- rening became the first tackle and the seventh Michigan man in a short seven year span to be chosen on the official All-American team.
