Michigan, 25-0 last week, edged
out the Golden Bears of California

The Bears took the runnerup
spot by a sparse 28 votes from
Tennessee, the team which was
accorded the No. 1 spot in a pre-
season poll Sept. 10. In last

was rated the No. 2 outfit.
On the basi of 10 points for
first, nine fof second, eight for
third, and so on, Michigan State
stacked up 1,026 points in the poll
of sports writers and sportscasters
from coast to coast.
California, which came east to
rock Pennsylvania, 35-0, and gain
a lot of respect from Eastern grid-
iron scribes, had 22 firsts and a
total of 962 points. Tennessee,
winner of Mississippi State 14-0,
polled 27 firsts, and a total of 934
points.

Win Over Michigan Shows MSC's Power

By DICK SEWELL
After last Saturday's sound
trouncing at the hands of a near-
perfect Michigan State football
machine, even Michigan's
staunchest supporter w ill be
forced to admit that the "little
brother" has at last assumed
giant proportions.
.Set on proving that last year's
14-7 winN was no fluke, Biggie
Munn's Si,artan warriors dis-
played the offensive and defen-
sive power wpich earned them
such high preseason ratings and

Maize and Blue failed to reach
enemy territory once under their
own power.
Defensively the Blue team
looked little better. The crip-
pling blow was the loss of vet-
eran tackle Tom Johnson who
was forced to the sidelines with
a head injury Amidway in the
second quarter.
The notable exception to the
general pattern was Michigan s
electrifying goal line stand which
nearly averted the first MSC
touchdown.
AFTER PENALIZING them-
selves to within the two yard line,
the Wolverine defenders stiffened
and stopped three Spartan thrusts
short of paydirt. However, on
the fourth and final try quarter-
back Al Dorow nosed over for
wrat proved to be the winning
margin.
Another bright spot on the
dark Michigan horizon was the
performance of three Wolverine
freshmen, Don E a d d y, Art
Walker, and Leo Schlicht. Al-
though their appearance was
brief, they showed signs of

Coach Ben Oosterbaan stated
yesterday that there would be not
radical changes in the Michigan
lineup for this week's clash with
Stanford. However, he hinted
that he would do some juggling'
in an attempt to provide a more '
potent combination.

BROOKLYN-I)}--Jim Hearn,
big side-arming righthander from
Atlanta, pitched one of his most
brilliant games yesterday and
turned back the fighting Brook-
lyn Dodgers, 3 to 1, in a tense
mound duel that carried the en-
flamed New York Giants to-within
a single victory of their goal-the
World Series.
In propelling "Destiny's Tots"
to their eighth straight triumph
and their 13th decision in their
last 14 games, Hearn yielded only
five hits to the bone-tired Dodgers
and was not in serious danger of
being caught because Bobby Thom-
son and Monte Irvin slashed home
runs.

THE AMAZING men of Leo Dur-
ocher needed to win only one of
two games scheduled on their
home field starting today to cli-
max the greatest stretch drive in
all baseball. Yesterday's playoff
was witnessed by 30,707 at Ebbets
Field. It was a stunned gathering
of Dodger rooters that saw its
heroes succumb.

Boasts Two 1951 Wins

The varsity squad spent the
balmy afternoon loosening sore
muscles and running through sig-
nal drills. No serious injuries
were reported by trainer Jim;
Hunt. Johnson took part in the
warinup drills and will undoubt-
edly be heady to go Saturday.
Lowell Perry aggravated a sore
back and reported to Hunt for
heat treatment, but he too should
be ready for Stanford.

of the previous Saturday of Michi-

The Stanford Indians, Michi-

through with their second straight
win of the season Saturday as
five of seven other future Wol-
verine opponents hit the victory
trail in their initial starts.
Little San Jose State fell vic-

Rout of MSC
Revenge in slight portion came
to Michigan Sunday afternoon
when its consistently good sailing
club won a 137-114%/2 victory from
Michigan State over the Whit-
more Lake course.
Led by veteran Paul Paris,
the Wolverines won four of the
six races while strong breezes
and sunny . skies served as an
ideal backdrop for the annual
grudge race.
The Spartans managed to gain
victories in the second and third

all seamanship of the Maize and

THOUGH the Giants' infield
looked tense at times and twice
got Hearn into potential trouble
in the middle innings, it redeemed
itself in the clutches by reeling off
four comforting double plays, in-
cluding a twin killing in a wild
scramble on the base paths which
ended the game.
The Giants, gifted by five
walks and an error, threatened
continually to bust the contest
wide open in the latter innings,
but Branca had it in the tight
spots and generally was given
fine support.
Branca had the Giants popping
up and hitting to the outfield most
of the time. The Dodgers came
up with only two assists, both on,

WITH A CLINIC for school boys
scheduled every afternoon and 'an
exhibition every night, the Michi-
gan swimmers seldom got a chance
to catch their collective breaths,
especially since there was a long
bus trip every morning.
Some of the younger men, who
are counted on this season to
give Mann's slumping team a
new life, did particularly well
during the tour.
Ron Gora, who was one of the
outstanding high school swimmers
in the nation last year, had a 2:08
to his credit in the 220-yard free
style. And second-semester fresh-
Tnan Burwell (Bumpy) ,Jones
clocked a 1:07.4 in the 100-meters
backstroke to give the Maize and
Blue a hope against Ohio State in
that style.
*b *
THE VETERAN John Davies
also swam well, and sophomore
Don Hill broke 52. several times in
the 100-yard free style.
The British opposition was not
strong in most cases, but one or

two men did give the Maize and
Blue team some trouble.
There was John Brockway, four
times national champion, who de-
feated Jones and Bernie Kahn in
the backstroke twice; Jack Word-
rup, a Scottish boy who swam the
440 in 4:49 and the 220 in 2:12;
and Ronnie Burns, another very
good free styler atsthose distances.
TIIE BRITISH people were ex-
tremely hospitable to the Michigan
ambassadorial delegation. In the
private homes where they were
lodged at most of the 20 towns
where they stopped, the savings of
weeks in food rations were set be-
fore the Wolverine athletes.
Every day was reception day
for Mann and his men. They met
the mayor of a different town
every afternoon, had tea, gave a
clinic, had tea again, had din-
ner, gave an exhibition, and fin-
ished up with more tea.
Most of the pools were a differ-
int length from those in the Uni-
ted States. The favorite length was
either 33%V' meters or 331/3 yards.
Standard U.S. pool is 25 yards.
* * *
OTHER MEMBERS of the Mi-
chigan group, in addition to those
mentioned above, were: Matt
Mann III, former Michigan cap-
tain and son of the coach; Alex
Canja, diver; Rusty Carlisle, med-
ley performer; Dave Neisch, last
year's captain; T o m Benner,
another second-year man; Wally
Jeffries, free-styler; Stew Elliott,
captain-elect along with Davies
and Big Ten champ in the 100-
yard breast stroke; and distance
ace Luis Child.
