FORMER LIONS COACH DIES:
Crisler Pays Final Tribute to Bo McMillin

4.

Face Peoria
In Tonight's
Final Game

By The Associated Press }
'Football suffers a tremendous
oss in the death of Alvin (Bo)
McMillan," declared Fritz Crisler,
University of Michigan Athletic
Director yesterday.
McMillan, who was coach at In-
diana University before he took
over the Detroit Lions pro team,
died at his home in Bloomington,
Ind., early yesterday. He was 57.
"McMillan always was a high
standard bearer for the game of
football," Crisler said. "We will
all miss him."

McMILLAN'S 35-YARD touch-
down run for Centre College's
"Prayin' Colonels" inflicted Har-

vard's first defeat in six years.
He was Walter Camps All-Ameri-
ca quarterback of 1919.
McMillan coached Indiana
University to its only Western
Conference football champion-
ship in 1945 after successful
coaching careers at Kansas
State, Geneva College of Penn-
sylvania, and Centenary College
of Louisiana. The 1945 team was
undefeated.
He died of a heart attack induc-
ed by cancer of the stomach, which
forced his retirement last fall as
coach of the professional Philadel-
phia Eagles of the National Foot-
ball League. He had given up a

life-time job at In
for a $30,000 an
coach of the Del
mid-season slump

seasons.

He made Indiana a respected

14 years there after it had hit
rock bottom in football prestige.
His Hoosier elevens won more Con-

won in its previous 34 years as a

He was voted "football man of

Writers Association of America.
Fellow coaches polled by the New
York World-Telegram named him
coachof the year."

He tallied 15 in a row for his
team in the last eight minutes
to wipe out a lead which the
scrappy, ball-hawking Philadel-

quarter and held until six min-

in the game.

the third period to break the
game open.
Ahead 33-29 at intermission,
they increased their margin to
43-30 with a series of brilliantly
executed plays.
The game was virtually clinched
for the Caterpillars when Bob
Kurland, the seven-foot giant
center of the Bartlesville, Okla.,
team who was double- and triple-
teamed all night, went out on
personal fouls at the 12:50 point
of the last half.

Oosterbaan Hunting.
For Backfield Men
By GENE MACKEVICH
Amidst crys of de-emphasis and
news-making meetings of the Big
Ten college presidents, who are
seeking to obtain more adequate
enforcement of existing rules,
Wolverine Coach Bennie Ooster-
baan soon will call his football
squad together for the 20-session
spring practice period.
Practice sessions will begin Ap-
ril 18 and they will end May 17,
which is in compliance with the
30-day limit allowed by Western
Conference rules this year. Chalk
talks will be mixed in with the
scrimmages, although Oosterbaan
does not plan to follow any set
routine.
TODAY COACH Oosterbaan
finds himself with practically the
exact same problemsthat he was
worrying about a year ago at this
time.
Unlike previous years the
season's practices will not begin
until after vacation is over.
Approximately 100 candidates
are expected to turn out for the
month long drill. Practices will be
scheduled on a six days per week
basis with emphasis, as usual, on
individual instruction. This will
be especially true in the case of
new players,
"WE FEEL THERE is a lot of
work to be done," said Oosterbaan,
"and our problems seem to be
much the same as they were a
year ago." The tailback and quar-
terback positions will still need to
be built up, in addition to improv-
ing the Wolverines' passing at-
tack.
Losing backs like Captain Bill
Putich and Don Peterson and line-
men Tom Johnson, Ralph Stribe,
Pete Kinyon, Jim Wolter, and
Fred Pickard, just to mention a
few, means only additional work
for the Maize and Blue coach dur-
ing spring practice. Replacements
must be found and this is the
time.

Three Battle
For Starting
CatchingJob
With the two leading receivers
of last season's diamond squad
gone, Coach Ray Fisher is faced
with the problem of finding a
suitable replacement for the de-
parted Pete Palmer and Line
Painter,
Only Doug Peck, of the con-
tenders for the number one catch-
ing role, has any experience--
Peck won his letter last year and
is expected to see a lot of action
this season. The main problem is
finding someone to put, punch to
the batting order, something that
will be sorely missed with the
graduation of clean-up hitter Pal-
mer.
* * *
HOWEVER, FISHER is faced
with great shallowness in the
backstopping department, and
only Dick Leach and Art Walker
appear to have the ability to step
into varsity roles. Leach, a sopho-
more from Flint, Michigan, is a
fiery competitor and the possessor
of a fine throwing arm.
Walker, a freshman from
South Haven, Michigan, who
played tackle on last season's
football squad, has the physical
make-up of a potentially great
receiver. He is big and an ex-
cellent target, as well as being
a fine glove man and extremely
adroit behind the plate. How-
ever, he is hampered by lack of
experience.
The big deciding factor as to
who will get the nod as number
one catcher is the offensive de-
partment.
Right now, the edge of experi-
ence puts the Choke-hitting Peck
ahead of Walker and Leach, and
it appears that he will be the
number one choice to don the
"tools of ignorance" during the
Southern swing.
