WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1951 TIDE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THRE) Tennessee Replaces MSC as Nation's To TALKING... WHEN ATO KNOCKED OFF Sigma Chi the other night it marked the first time that a fraternity has won the football title more than once. Of course, it should be pointed out that touch football is a comparatively new sport in Greek circles, being inaugurated as recently as 1947. Up until that time speedball provided the means by which the white bucks men let off excess energy on autumn afternoons.. With the assumption of football to a major sport in '47, the "great big hairy-chested men" stepped in and hung up their first pigskin crown. In the interim between then and now the Phi Delts, Chi Psi's and Delta Sags came up with championship teams. Although team play is unquestionably the biggest factor in any success in touch football, sometimes a few individuals stand out so prominently that their teams' good fortunes appear synonymous with their abilities. So it is with Howie Maturen and Don Fackler of ATO. Stanford Climbs to Third Position in Week's AP Poll Illinois Drops to Sixth Place; Seven of Ten Best Squads To Finish Season Saturday RETURNING LETTERMEN: Davies, Elliott Lead 'M' Swimmers I A Potent Scoring Combo MATUREN AND FACKLER began appearing in print when they teamed up to lead Michigan House of the West Quad to a football title last year. Maturen was the Michigangers' ace passer, and, natur- ally, his favorite target was Fackler. T e pair affiliated with ATO and continued where they left off on the gridiron. There are no statistics available to show just how big a factor the two were in ATO's success this year, but the final game gives an indication of it. The initial six pointer came as a result of a Maturen-Fackler pass, and in the first half Maturen passed on every ATO play. This year's victims of the pair may take refuge + in the thought that both graduate next spring. One campus aggregation that compiled a near-fantastic record this year in touch football was the Law Club 'A' squad. During the recent campaign the lawyers rang up 151 points while holding their opponents scoreless. If this feat doesn't impress, the fact that the situation was never so bad that they had to punt should. In he professional fraternity final the barristers racked up a favored Delta Sigma Delta team by a 32-0 count. The Delt's ace passer and former Wolverine gridder, Joe Ponsetto, was unable to hit his receivers consistently, so harassed was he by the rushing lawyer line. Standings Time Again EARL RISKEY has just released the latest standings in the frater- nity and residence hall leagues. The ratings are based on the completion of three sports, football, track and cross country. SHERWIN GANDEE ... OSt's two-way end * * * Wolverines' Drill To Stop Ohio Passes Michigan's Wolverines, victims of upset defeats by Cornell and Northwestern the last two week- ends, set about in practice yester- day to fashion an upset of their own against Ohio State Satur- day. The underdog role against the Buckeyes is nothing new for coach Bennie Oosterbaan's Wolverines, as the Ohioans also were favored to take Michigan in both 1950 and '49; last year the Maize and Blue triumphed in the blizzard, 9-3, and the season before that Ohio settled for a 7-7 tie in Ann Arbor. NEW YORK-(P)-The Univer- sity of Tennessee was back in the No. 1 spot yesterday in the weekly nation-wide Associated Press foot- ball poll but Gen. Bob Neylant's Volunteers are no cinch to wind up the season in that lofty position. Whereas seven o fthe top 10 teams close out their regular sea- son this Saturday, Tennessee and two others in the select group have two more games before the long fall grind ends. * * * TENNESSEE, which vaulted back into the No. 1 and dropped Michigan State into the No. 2 ranking, meets Kentuiky Satur- day at Lexington and winds up Dec. 1 with Vanderbilt at Knox- ville. Kentucky is the No. 9 team this week, gaining strength after a poor early season. Either Kentucky or Vandy could hand the unbeaten Vols, named to meet Maryland in the Sugar Bowl New Year's Day, their first setback of the cam- paign. The seven steams which end their regular season Saturday are Mich- igan State, No. 2 this week; Stan- ford, No. 3; Maryland, No. 4; Princeton, No. 5; Illinois, No. 6; Wisconsin, No. 8; and Kentucky, No. 9. ,'* * GEORGIA TECH, No. 7, meets Davidson Saturday, and Georgia Dec. 1, both games in Atlanta. Tech also has accepted an Orange Bowl invite. The No. 10 team, Baylor, plays Southern Methodist Saturday, and Rice on Dec. 1. Rice, T. C. U., Baylor, Texas and South- ern Methodist, still are contenders for the Cotton Bowl assignment against Kentucky. For the teams ending their schedule this week, Stanford ap- pears to have the toughest out- look in its game with California at Palo Alto. Stanford seems assured of the Rose Bowl bid, but a defeat won't help the Indians' No. 3 rating in the poll, which continues two more weeks. Michigan State, No. 1 in the poll a week ago, plays Colorado at East Lansing. * * * ILLINOIS can assure the 'Big 10 title and a trip to the Rose Bowl by defeating or tieing Northwest- ern Saturday at Evanston. But, the Illini won't be buying any tick- ets for Pasadena until the game's The Intra - Mural Sports Building will close tonight at '7:00 p.m. It will not be open Thanksgiving Day. -Earl Riskey ended. Northestern has beaten Illinois for the last four years, and deprived the same team of a Rose Bowl excursion last fall by winning a 14-7 stunner. Wisconsin meets Minnesota at Minneapolis. A victory for the Badgers and defeat of Illinois by Northwestern and Purdue by In- diana would give Wisconsin the Big 10 crown and a Rose Bowl job.

Today's article covers return- ing lettermen.) Ily BOB LANDOWNE Co-captains John Davies and Stew Elliott, who hold several na- tional breaststroke titles between them, head the list of returning lettermen that already are prepar- ing for the 1951-52 swimming sea- son under the eyes of Coach Matt Mann. Davies, who competed for Aus- tralia in the 1948 Olympics, reached his top performance to date when he broke the National AAU outdoor record for the 200- meter breaststroke in last sum- mer's meet at Detroit's Brennan Pools. HIS WINNING time was 2:35.8 which topped, the old mark of 2:36.3 set by Joe Verdeur four years earlier. This record breaking feat made him a double winner in the meet as he had raced to a 100-meter breaststroke victory the day before.

But the intramural year is a long one and anything can happen between now and June. If there was such an animal as a sportsmanship trophy awarded each year, the Phi Delts feel that the presentation should be made to the Alpha Delts this time. The latter refused to accept the forfeited games they were awarded when the Phis showed up late for a volleyball match between the clubs, and played them out as real sportsmen would. The results were disastrous for the gentlemen from State street (six wins for the opposition), but their hearts were in the right place, and that, after all, is the chief ,reason for having intramural sports in the first place as we see it. Curcillo lines up at quarter- back in Coach Woody Hayes'. T formation, while Janowicz runs from leift half. Both Janowicz and Curcillo are respeeted run- ners also. Oosterbaan drilled his squad hard on pass defense yesterday, with Dave Tinkham, Lowell Perry, and Don Oldham in the principal roles as defenders. OFFENSIVELY, cracking the tough Ohio line is Oosterbaan's main worry. In last week's 0-0 deadlock with Illinois, the Buck- eye forwards held the vaunted Il- lini ground attack to a net total of 48 yards. Kingpin of the OSU defense is end Sherwin Gandee, who was particularly troublesome to the Illini backfield Saturday. Ganldee is also used occasionally as a pass catcher. Last year Gandee played more minutes (251) than any other Buckeye except Janowicz.

Williams House triumphed over Winchell House, 37-17, with the aid of Bob Bolt, who won the 25- yard free style in 11.8, and helped his 75-yard medley relay team to a 43.1 victory. Both times were the best of the evening for these; events. Williams also collected firsts in the free style relay and the 50-yd. free style. * * * KELSEY HOUSE downed Adams House, 32-28, despite Wayne Slaw- son's performance in the 25-yard breast stroke. Slawson had the best time in that event, going the length in 14.1. Kelsey picked up REGIMENTAL STRIPES Socks and Ties four first places and Adams had only two. Frank Haag of Chicago House sparked his teammates in a 29- 28 edge of Hayden House. Haag recorded a 14.3 time in the 25- yard back stroke. Duncan Ma- goon of Hayden House also 4ad one of the evenings top times; 25.9 sec. in the 50-yard free style. Both houses took an equal number of firsts but Chicago salvaged the extra point with seconds and thirds. ATO breezed by Phi Lambda Phi, 35-24, taking first in every event except the 50-yard free style. The only I-M football game of the day saw Alpha Chi Sigma slip by Tau Epsilon Rho, 7-0, in a playoff game for the third divi- sion. By ED WHIPPLE (Last in a series spotlighting last Saturday's performance of Michigan'sE future 1951 grid foes.)I The Buckeye will be a tough nut for Michigan to crack this Satur- day. AFTER sputtering past inept Pittsburgh and Northwestern by the margin of field goals in their last two outings, Ohio State's Buckeyes finally hit on all cylin- ders last weekend to hold unbeaten Illinois to a 0-0 deadlock. By virtue of their play against the Conference leading Illini, the Bucks have established themselves as favorites to beat the Wolverines. But for a fumble by the holder on a field goal attempt from Illi- nois' eight yard line, the Ohioans might have defeated the Cham- paign outfit. Vic Janowicz had booted three pointers to win the two previous games, and he prob- ably could have' made it three straight wins if the ball had been placed for him. BOTH TEAMS tried hard to give the game away. OSU lost the ball four times on fumbles, but made up for it by intercepting four Illini aerials. Illinois picked off one wayward Buck pass, and lost two fumbles, once on the Ohio seven yard line when Johnny Karras bobbled. Look your best for' that Turkey Trot! TODAY! Tbe 9ascola Barbers Near Michigan Theater In the fourth period, Illinois almost duplicated their last ditch rally that beat Michigan, 7-0. Al Brosky, Illinois' chief interceptor, ran back an inter- cepted pass 44 yards to Ohio's 38. Then Quarterback Tom O'- Connell hit Rex Smith with a 28 yard aerial. But Buckeye Fred Bruney in- tercepted O'Connell's next heave on the goal line and moved it out to the 25. PLAYING its outstanding game of the season, Ohio State's pow- erful lineheld the famed Illinois ground attack to a net gain of 48. yards. End Sherwin Gandee and tackles Johnny Borton and Jul- ius Wittman combined to give the Illini backs a rough after- noon. Among other feats, Gandee threw O'Connell for a 24 yard loss when the Illini had a first down on OSU's 27. i i j ...!1 I Our version of the short cut keeps you ehic, (- trimi and pretty. o Call today for anra ap~pointment.c STAEBLC.ER O k.
