Fast, Tall 'M' Hoopstens Ready for New Season F By PAUL GREENBERG Fast and tall will be the key ad- jectives that will be employed in describing Michigan's "new look" basketball team of 1951. The eighteen man varsity squad that has been toiling for five weeks under the tutelege of Head Coach Ernie McCoy and Assistant Dave Strack has been primed for a streamlined race-horse offense. It seems that at last the Michi- gan basketball strategists have succumbed to the nation-wide pen- chant for speed on the hardwood. * s THERE IS A good reason for the change. This year, McCoy has been blessed with a quantity of good material and this gives him a "deep" team so necessary when utilizing a fast break. From a height standpoint, only Doug Law- rence and Dave Krupp stand under 6: A strong nucleus remains from last year's varsity, and they will be aided by the cream of last year's sparkling freshmen crop. The new eligibility rule which al- lows first year men to play will also iiid McCoy, he is carrying four freshmen on the varsity roster. At this point in the practice ses- sions, the team ranking of indi- vidual players is just beginning to take shape. As of now, Captain, Jim Skala, Doug Lawrence, and lanky Dick Williams, all lettermen last year, seem to be fairly certain of starting berths. SOPHOMORE RAY Pavachevich a stockily built lad from East Chi- cago, Indiana, seems to have the first call for working the backcourt with Lawrence. John Codwell, a rangy import from Houston, Texas, and Milt Mead, 6'9", all state cent- er from Bay City, both sophomores are in contention for the other for- ward position. Ann Arbor-bred Sid Cook, a sophomore, Carl Brunsting, a letter winner last season and John Powless, freshman from Aurora, Ill., are also expected to see much action. The other members of the squad are senior letterman Tom Tier- nan, juniors Krupp, Paul Goyer, Bob Steinberg, Bill Wisner, and Dave Levitt; Sophomores Dave Nash and Bob Topp, and fresh- man Bruce Allen, Bob Jewell and Ralph Kauffman. ** * THE MAIN obstacle that the Wolverines will have to overcome in the coming season is their in- experience. Another question pos- ed is whether or not Williams and Mead, the "big men" of the squad will be able to take the buffeting about they will be sure to receive under the boards Both men are rather fraily- constructed and if they -don't prove resilient, they won't be much use in Big Ten play. In the Western Conference it looks as if Illinois will once again be the team to beat, with Iowa shaping up strongly in the dark horse role. The season begins on December first against Central Michigan, a sort of test contest. From then an until January fifth, they will play six or more non-conference games, but on the fifth the games begin to count as the Wolverines travel to Bloomington to take on Indi- ana. A pre-season prediction is dif- ficult to make, considering the greenness of the squad. All indica- tions seem to point to a much more successful season than last year, but there are many question marks. Grid Scores EAST Columbia29, Brown 14 Penn 7.

Illinois narrowly squeaked into the Big Ten championship while Stanford suffered a 20-7 defeat at the hands of California, the team that was supposed to win the Pa- cific Coast Conference title before the season got under way. In the other top game of the day, Tennessee overwhelmed Ken- tucky, 28-0. IT WAS FORTUNATE for the Illini that they came out on top, because their only two rivals for the Big Ten crown,, Purdue and Wisconsin, each scored victories.' Both had a chance to win before the day's proceedings got under way. Stanford already had the Rose Bowl berth in the bag but the Indian's were aiming to take a perfect record to Pasadena on New Year's Day. UCLA defeated Southern California, 21-7, to take second place in the Pacific Coast Conference race behind Stanford. Michigan State, whose record does not count in the Big Ten standings until 1953, shellacked Colorado, 45-7, in an effort to get back to the top of the Associated Press Weekly poll. The Spartans currently are No. 2. The big hero in the Tennessee triumph over Kentucky was Hank Lauricella, who engineered most of the offensive fireworks. He didn't score though. Gen. Bob Neyland, coach of the Vols, never had lost to Kentucky in 20 meetings, and in all this time the lads from the Blue Grass have scored just 24 points. Both teams already have been nominated for bowls-Tennessee the Sugar and Kentucky the Cot- ton-so the game did not mean much from that standpoint. How- ever, it probably cemented Tennes- see as the No. i outfit in the Na- tion. The rugged Tennessee line stopped Kentucky's fine passer, Babe Parilli, who never has thrown one for a score against the Vols. In another major southern en-' counter, Maryland, the No. 4 team in the land and headed for a meet- ing with Tennessee New Year's Day, flexed its muscles at the ex- pense of West Virginia, 54-7, with Ed (Mighty Mo) Modzelewski bull- dozing for 131 yards and two touchdowns. In the southwest conference, the first place tie between Texas Chris- tion and Rice was broken when the pair met. Texas Christain got the verdict, 22-6, and now holds down first place and the favorite's spot to get the Cotton Bowl nomination against Kentucky. But it isn't over yet. Baylor, still in the running, slapped down down Southern Methodist, 14-13. Texas, the other team that could do it, was idle. h SCHRISTMAS CARDS Complete Assortment OVERBECK eddBOOKSTORE Read and Use Daily Classifieds EAST LANSING--(AP)-Michigan State's talent-packed backfield ran rings around the Colorado defense Shere yesterday to give the highly rated Spartans a 45-7 win and an undefeated season. The walloping windup made Michigan State, currently rated second in the Associated Press Poll, a strong contender for the mythical national football cham- pionship. * * * IT WAS THE first undefeated season for Michigan State since 1913. The winning streak of 15 games tied a similar stretch dat- ing back to pre-World War I days when Michigan State was a small time agricultural college.

BIG TEN RUNNERS-UP: Records Fall as Badgers Rip Gophers S I MINNEAPOLIS-(/P)-Two new Big Ten records were set yesterday as Wisconsin handily defeated Minnesota, 30 to 6, in the season's finale, as both teams wore sneak- ers on a field frozen solid by 12-{ degree weather. y T c broke through left guard and shed- ding one would-be tackler after another plunged to the Minnesota one. He took it over on the next play. Coatta's kick was good. half and was ahead 32-7 at the third quarter. Halfback Carroll Hardy provided the big moment for the outclassed Buffaloes when he took a pitchout and wheeled 67 yards around end for a score on the first play after the third quarter kickoff. QUARTERBACK Al Dorow pass- ed to Bob Carey, the big Michigan State end, for two of the touch- downs. Michigan State was 42 yards out when Carey snagged a pass for the first Michigan State score in the opening quarter. Fullback Dick Panin squirted through the middle on a 51 yard scoring run for the other first period score. Although the first stringers powered for the majority of the Michigan State touchdowns the second and third stringers of the "pony" backfield also sparkled. SOPHOMORE Billy Wells was in by the second period and scor- ed from the one yard line after a sustained Michigan State drive of 45 yards. It took only two plays for Don McAuliffe, the bruising first string back, to score in the third period. After a fumble was re- covered on the Colorado 28 Mc- Auliffe slammed for 26 yards and bulled over from the two yard line. The third string backs were in by the third period. Seven plays carried 55 yards for a score with Evan Slonac going the last 11 yards through the middle of the Colorado line for the touchdown. Carey, in the end zone, reached up for another Dorow pass thrown from 23 yards out for his second touchdown of the game on the first play of the final quarter. The team badly wanted to see Carey, the team captain and a re-' tiring senior, make the final score of the game. A chance to run the score into the 40's came in the final quarter after Colorado slammed from its own 34 down to the Michigan State 15-the best sustained Colot- ado drive of the game. Safetyman Jim Ellis snagged one of Zack Jordan's passes _on the five and Michigan State was in position for its final score. McAu- liffe, Panin and Vince Pisano gain- ed most of the yardage as Michi- gan State marched down field to the Colorado goal. The quarterbacks kept trying to hit Carey with passes but none clicked and McAuliffe went over from the four for the final score. Carey made only three of his conversion tries but the game was not won where the extra points mattered too much in the scoring. Michigan State netted a fat 390 yards rushing to 178 for Colorado. Six pass completions in 14 tries gave Michigan State 120 yards to 68 yards on seven of 17 passes completed for Colorado.

THE IRISH, playing before their smallest crowd since the war, 40,- 695, lagged 20-6 entering the final period, but then got two touch- downs on short smashes by John- ny Lattner in a wild aerial circus. A ruling that an Iowa defender interfered with end Chet Ostrow- ski on Johnny Mazur's pass into the end zone from the Hawkeye 24 gave Notre Dame the ball on Iowa's 1. On the next play, Lattner smashed through the middle for a touchdown. Then Notre Dame's most im- portant man of the day, unherald- ed sophomore Bob Joseph, booted the tying point. Joseph also had converted after Lattner's five yard touchdown smash midway in the final period. It appeared for three quarters that the Hawkeyes would salvage a chunk of glory from an other- wise dismal season. A surprising spread formation attack guided by sharpshooting Bert Britzmann bewildered the Irish as did Southern Methodists similar spread earlier in the sea- son. Freshman fullback Alan Ameche,I who ran wild through the Gopher line for 186 yards and two touch- downs, set a new rushing mark of 756 yards. This breaks the prev- ious mark set by Les Horvath of Ohio State in 1944, at 732 yards. THE OTHER two records went to Minnesota's sophomore left half Paul Giel, who set new marks for season's total offense, and for av- erage total offense per game. Giel gained 106 yards by rush- ing and passing to raise his sea- son's total to 1,084. This breaks the old total offense season's mark of 1;039 yards set by Bob Chappuis of Michigan in 1946. Giel finished the season with an average of 180.7 yards gained per game by rushing and passing. This breaks the mark of 169.8 set by Chappuis in 1947. * * * AMECHE was ably assisted by quarterback John Coatta, whose bullet - like passes found their marks consistently. Coatta passed for one touchdown, set up another with a 49-yard aerial, and kicked an 11-yard field goal. The pattern of the game became apparent in the first two minutes. On the second play after the Go- phers took the kickoff, Deral Tet- eak intercepted a jump pass on the Minnesota 29. Ameche then Boilermakers Win BLOOMINGTON -(P)- Purdue turned two pass interceptions and a recovered fumble into touch- downs yesterday for a 21-13 victory over Indiana that gave the winners second place in the Western Con- ference. Purdue had gone into the annual Old Oaken Bucket battle with a chance for the Big Ten title but Illinois took it with a 3-0 victory over Northwestern. IT WAS THE last game for In-f dlin ditP rairi rnh 0ln the one-point deficit. Guard Al- len Hager of Purdue intercepted Pat Gedman's pass at the In- diana 35 and ran it back to the one and Schmaling's plunge car- ried it over. Purdue's hard-running backfield was near full strength for one of the few times this season. With quarterback Dale Samuels using his passes sparingly, Schmaling and Phil Klezek gained consistent- ly on the ground. Purdue wound up with 21 first downs to Indiana's 12 and gained 329 yards rushing to Indiana's 156. Dick Ashburner and Lou D'- Achille picked up 98 yards for Indiana on passes but the two thrown into Purdue hands proved expensive.
