Gloom of Defeat Quiets olverine Offense Outgains

Wildcats

mLichtgan Locker noon
By JIM PARKER
Associate Sports Editor
it's hard to imagine anything more pathetic than a beaten ath-
lete-unless it's a group of beaten athletes.
Such was the feeling that pervaded the Michigan dressing room
after the Wolverines had heard Northwestern's sorrowful rendition
of "Taps" to Michigan's last hope of salvaging a wiining season and
to its slim mathematical chance of capturing Big Ten title glory1
for the fifth straight year.1
HERE WAS THE Michigan team, a group of stout-hearted under-
dogs who had so valiantly fought to maintain a winning tradition, now
sitting silently in a dressing room where the only evidence of warmth
and cheer was that which was supplied by the steam drifting from
the shower room.
Here were gathered the young men who hadn't been granted
the slimest prayer of making better than a second division Con-
ference showing, but who had stunned the sporting world with a
fighting spirit that had carried them to three straight Big Ten
victories before Illinois had started to strip them of their Confer-
ence invincibility.
Here in the silence of their dressing room the Michigan players
x were left with only their exploded dreams to console them-if such a
thing were possible. There wasn't much talking-there wasn't any-
thing to say. They had done their best, but they just couldn't turn
back this fired-up Northwestern team that was bent on ending a
three-game losing streak of its own.
"WE JUST RAN OUT of steam," muttered Coach Bennie Ooster-
baan as he spoke softly from a corner of the dressing room.
Over in the Northwestern locker room boisterous, shouting
Wildcats, feeling only power surging through their veins after
beating Michigan, seemed more concerned with the score of an-
other Big Ten game-Illinois' tie game with Ohio State.
That was a score that gave the Wildcats a feeling of confidence
that they could shatter the Illini's Rose Bowl hopes again this year
as they had done on a snow-swept gridiron the year before at Evan-
ston. And these players were loudly proclaiming their intentions of
doing just that.
* * * *
NORTHWESTERN COACH Bob Voigts seemed as pleased as a
doomed convict who had just been granted a reprieve. "We've been
waiting for this one," said Voigts. "And, yes, we were sure we could
handle the Wolverines. We got our six points and we were sure we
could win with that much of a margin. That was all we needed."
The Wildcat coach was impressed by the defensive play of
Michigan, which held his squad to 156 yards rushing while Michi-
gan was gaining 244 on the ground. "That Osterman (Russ Oster-
man, defensive right end) played a great game against us. He
was wandering around in our backfield just a little too much for
my satisfaction," said the Northwestern mentor.
* * * *
AND BILL BILLINGS kicking was something that gave Voigts
more than a little concern. While the Flint junior didn't compile too
impressive an overall average, he sent one out on the one-foot line
and later dropped one out on the five.
Voigts was more than pleased with the results orf his pass
defense which hauled in five errant Michigan aerials. "We were
waiting for those passes," said Voigts.
But it's this writer's opinion that, with the exception of the two-
man defensive cloak the Wildcats had plaguinlg Lowell Perry, it was
more a case of Wolverine passers failing drastically to hit their targets
than it was of an over alert Northwestern pass defense. But then,
maybe that's just sour grapes.

Michigan Running Game
(Continued from Page 1) :
Illinois has yet to lose a game in ",
Big Ten play. (The Illini were tiedw
by Ohio State yesterday0-0.)
Wisconsin also leads the Wol- ~
verines with a 4-1-1 record.;
For Michigan, Don Peterson
again carried a major load of the
Wolverines' ground game, and ac- N .
quitted himself well. But in the
second half even the quick-footed
fullback found it difficult to
broach an ever-stronger Wildcat
line.

THE WILDCAT forward wall,
with Riley, captain and guard Don
MacRae, and tackle James Howe
as the granite blocks, was great in
the clutch and its play belied-the
sorrowful losses to three straight
conference opponents.
Michigan's defense actually
played an excellent game after
the one scoring thrust by North-
western. Guard Don Dugger,
greatly improved over the course
of the season, was one standout.
Hard-tackling Roger Zatkoff
was another, and Larry LeClaire
came in in the fourth quarter
in place of Ted Topor to do a
good job of line-backing.
It was the Michigan offense,
dormant since the scoring outburst
against Minnesota, which spelled
defeat. The Wolverines used three

Conference
Title Chance
CHIGAGO - R) - Darkhorse
Purdue could grab the Big Ten
Football Title next Saturday by
defeating Indiana-if Illinois loses
to Northwestern.
Purdue, virtually overlooked in
the title and Rose Bowl shuffle,
plays only a five game schedule.
Today the Boilermakers defeated
Minnesota 19-13 for a conference
record of 3-1-.750.
A win over Indiana could leave
Purdue with 4-1 for .800.
* * *
ILLINOIS' scoreless tie with
Ohio State 'today gave the Illini
a league mark of 4-0-1 for .900. A
tie counts as a half game won and
a half game loss.
If Northwestern should upset
Illinois Saturday, the Illini's fi-
nal reading would be 4-1-1 for
.750. However a tie would clinch
the title for Illinois with .833.
A Wisconsin victory Saturday
over Minnesota would give the
Badgers a record of 5-1-1 for .786.
CONFERENCE members vote on
the Rose Bowl representative. This
usually is a formality, since the
Champion, if eligible, has always'
been the choice in the past.
For the entire season thus far
Purdue has lost four games, to
Notre Dame 30-9, Wisconsin 31-7,
Miami of Florida 7-0, and Texas
14-0.

NEW YORK -- (R) -- Stanford
continued its rush toward a Rose
Bowl bid today, but Illinois was
stopped cold in its tracks and had
to settle for a 0-0 tie with Ohio
State as most of the major col-
lege football teams scored impres. -
sive victories.
The main exception was Texas
Christian which bowed to Texas,
32-21, after hoping to pull out
front in the Southwest Confer-
ence and go on to the Cotton
Bowl.
MICHIGAN STATE, as usual,
had to spurt in the second half
after being tied at 14-14 at inter-
mission, to defeat Indiana, 30-26,
while Sugar Bowl-bound Tennes-
see ran over Mississippi, 46-21.
Maryland continued its march
toward the Southern Confer-
ence crown with a 53-0 victory
over North Carolina State. The
Terrapins, even if approval from
the Conference is not forthcom-
ing, will meet Tennessee in the
Sugar Bowl.
Georgia Tech, headed for a
post-season clash in the Orange
Bowl, had little trouble whipping
Alabama, 27-7. Notre Dame just
managed to outlast North Caro-
lina, 12-7, and Wisconsin kept its
hopes alive to win the Big Ten
Title and get the Rose Bowl nomi-
nation by flattening Iowa, 34-7.
, * *
STANFORD HAD rough going
with Oregon State for the first
half and could do no better than
a 7-7 deadlock. But the Indians
erupted for three touchdowns in
the third period to break the con-
test wide open and run up a 35-14
final margin.
Stanford now is virtually as-
sured of a Rose Bowl spot. Even
if the youthful Indians lose to
California next week, they'll
probably get in the post-season
classic.
. , ,
OHIO STATE, an in and out
club all season, completely stopped
the Illini and their ace back John-
ny Karras, who wound up his
day's toil with minus 11 yards in
14 tries. Nor could Ohio State
bulwark Vic Janowicz do anything
noteworthy. In fact, he fumbled
once on his own eight-yard line.

-Daily--Al Reid
GO AWAY, SON, you bother me, thinks Michigan fullback Don
Peterson (46) as he applies the straightarm to would-be Wildcat
tackler John Steeb (86). Peterson was one of the few bright spots
in Michigan's 6-0 loss to Northwestern which eliminated the Wol-
verines from Big Ten title chances.

PRINCETON, N.J. (P)-Dandy
Dick Kazmaier had one of the
biggest days of his brilliant foot-
ball career yesterday as he led
Princeton's unbeaten Tigers to a
record-smashing 27 to 0 victory
over their oldest rival, Yale.
Kazmaier engineered every Ti-
ger touchdown and gained a total
of 237 yards by running and pas
ing. He wiped out the eastern
record for ground-gaining in one
season and gave Princeton the
Big Three Championship for the
fifth straight year, a feat no team
has accomplished since Yale and
Princeton first met in 1873.
THE VICTORY was Princeton's
21st in succession over a three-
year stretch, adding one more tri-
umph to a string of record length.
Kazmaier scored only one
touchdown himself-on a nine-
yard end run. But his passes
accounted for the other three.
He tossed twice to end Len
Lyons and once to Frank Mc-
Phee, the stellar defensive end
who came in just to catch a
pass.
Today's 132 yards by rushing
and 105 by passing gave Kazmaier
a season total of 1707 yards. This
surpassed the eastern mark of
1693 yards set by Red Marchibroda
of St. Bonaventure last year.

MICHIGAN'S MOST effective
plays were weak side thrusts, with
Wes Bradford and Frank Howell
carrying. And an occasional sweep
with Putich or Peterson carrying
gained well-as long as the Wol-
verines were in Wolverine terri-
tory.
