TUSDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1953 PAGE TWREW THE MICHIGAN DAILY ___________________________________________________________________ I I PAd~R T1IRI~R SPORTS SLANTS .By Ed Whipple Those with the biggest mouths generally get the most attention, which is fine sometimes, and not too fine on other occasions, as Michi- gan State has just found out. It's hard to find any sympathy for the Spartans' cause, whether they are guilty of any more misdeeds than some other members of the Big Ten or not. State has claimed there are other schools violating That matbensbut this is the fundamental difference between them and Michigan State: The unnamed offenders have at least had the good intelligence to keep their mouths shut as they went about recruiting. The Spartans, on the other hand, have gone about their business in such blatant style no one could mistake their purpose. Further, President John Hannah hasn't been content to quietly condone illegal subsidization under his own nose; he has seen fit to play the hypocrite, proclaiming a deemphasis program to the academic world. Hlere are two of his more recent mouthings, as chairman of the American Council on Education's group named to recommend sports reform: "Recruiting and subsidization remains the basic problem; I hope it will be slowed down by the college presidents. The only decent thing. to do is to give the conferences, the NCAA, and the accrediting agencies a chance to see what they can do." And when Hannah asked for MSC's admission into the Big Ten in 1947, he declared, "The evil is what is done beyond the realm of scholarship admI b durilissions.... Imean by alumni groups, indutilcon- cerns, downtown coaches and so on... -" All this comes from a man whose school has just been slapped down for promoting an alumni dlub that helps athletes on the sly. Now he says such action is "unwarranted and unjustified." In other words, the Spartans were asking for it, with a capital "A." They have denied any official connection with the Spartan Club, yet the MSC alumni Field Secretary has damitted signing a letter asking for $100 contributions to the Spartan Foundation, with a secret practice pass as the return for kickins. * * * * The State News, MSC student newspaper, contends its school has been convicted without evidence. Yet the books of the Spartan Foun- dation have disclosed over $17,000 disbursed to unidentified sources be- tween July 1951, and July, 1952, after the club had supposedly dis- banded. Even Hannah won't tell where that went. $3800 more was given to football players, including Don Cole- man and Al Dorow, whose eligibility had run out. The Conference reasoned if Michigan State could afford to spend that on has-beens, what must they be giving to those still eligible? Which is a very reasonable question, yet to be answered by the East Lansing folks, who usually have the answer to everything. What did the Spartan Foundation dow ith its money? Did it buy manure spreaders or milking machines? Did It buy canoes for the Red Cedar? Pin ball machines for the Union? Until MSC can show that the Spartan Foundation did NOT use its funds for re- cruiting athletes, the whole outfit deserves what It has already received and more too. Technically, the "probation" means nothing, as any literate person can read from the news stories. Practically, it means mil-.~ lions in bad publicity, which undoes all the propaganda Michigan State has worked so hard to spread the past five years, Hannah has been gallavanting here, there, and everywhere. He has dabbled in polhtics enough to get himself a federal cabinet post because heis an "outstanding educator." Michigan State has been sold as a well-rounded educational institution, both to the nation and the people of the state of Michigan, when it approximates a glorified foot- ball factory. -4 Well, that's all down the drain now, and good riddance. Mich- igan State has no one to blame but itself. And they should have learned that talk Is not always cheap, even when it comes from East Lansing. 8 5-84 Win Over Wolverines Back Coach Takes Grid Job at USC George Ceithaml, for the past five years a member of the Mich- igan football coaching staff, an- nounced yesterday that he had accepted the position of backfield coach at the University, of South- eCeitham tutored the Wolverine backs for te past four seasons aft- the jayvee gridders. In his playing days at Michigan he quarterbacked the 1940-41-42 squads under H. 0. "Fritz" Crisler and captained the team in his senior year. * * * THE YOUTHFUL coach said hhe was leaving Ann Arbor "ihgreat reluctance since all of my playing and coaching exper- ience has been at Michigan." He professed his debt to such fine coaches as Crisler and Benny Oos- first as a player and later as a coach.' Following in the tradition of such ' great Michigan quarter- backs as Benny Friedman and Harry Newman, Ceithami es- tablished his own niche in Wol- verine football history on the strength of his expert Isignal calling and heads-up play. His greatest game'was aint Notre Dame in 1942 while hge was captaining the Maize and Blue eleven to a seven won, three lost record. In that contest, generally regarded as a masterpiece of quar- terbacking, he led the Wolverines to a 32-20 victory over the highly- touted Irish-. THE GREAT opportunity that was open to him in California guiding the Trojan gridders was further enhanced by the fact that relatives and frends on the coast. The exodus of the stocky-ex- quarterback to Los Angeles leaves a void in the Wolverines' grid brain trust. As yet nobody has been chosen to succeed him, and head coach Oosterbaan said that "we're very sorry to lose George, we'll miss him--he's done a fine fields for the i ast four season. Oosterbaan went on to say that "I know the staff joins me in wish- ing him well at his now post."

The Wolverines took nine of the ten events, yielding only in the 440 yard freestyle where Gopher captain Dave Anderson nipped Maize and Blue chieftain Wally Jeffries by less than six inches. THE HIGH-spirited Michigan squad experienced its toughest cdmpetition from the clock in a pre-meet record-breaking foray which found no less than 18 of Matt Mann's disciples engaging in a mile swim. The old Yale record for the event was lowered to 15:34.9 from its original 15:46.8. In the same race, Yale records for the 500 and 600 yard distances were also smashed. The new time for the 500 was 4:16.5, and for the 600 was 5:10.0. After polishing off the Eli rec- ords, the Maize and Blue swim- mers took coach Niels Thorpe's Gophers completely in stride. JOHN CHASE, Tom Case and Johnny flies led off with a handy victory in the 300 yard medley re- lay, and from that point on the only question was the size of the final score.

By HANLEY GURWIN A determined Wolverine hockey club returned to a contending po- sition in the MCHL by handing league-leading North Dakota two setbacks in "blue chip" contests this past week-end. By winning its i'emaining three can now do no worse tan tie with Minnesot for the leagu cown NCAA championships at Colorado Springs. MICHIGAN'S chances of win- ning a playoff spot seemed rather dim a 'week ago after the puck- sters dropped a pair of contests to the Gophers at Minnesota. How- tirely tdifferent story as a hustlin, alert playing Wolverine squad completely dominated play to earn 5-3 and 8-3 victories over the Sioux of North Dakota. All three lines played excel- lent hockey in the twin killings, with several men doubling on of- fensive and defensive units. The newly formed second line of Pat Cooney, Doug Mullen, and George Chin accounted for sev- yen goals while the number one trio, Doug Philpott, John Mat- chef ts, and Jim Haas, bagged the other six. - Mullen personally aided the Wolverine cause by blinking the red light on four occasions and picking up assists on three other goals. Captain Matchefts scored three unassisted goals and also pitched in to assist on two more. TELLY MASCARIN, Ron Mar- tinson, and Bert Dunn, plaigto- gethr onth ne deehidtlie accomplished the difficult task of slowing down the big guns of the Nodak attack. AleX McClellan, playing with a charley horse in his leg, turned in one of the finest performances ever witnessed at the Coliseum in keeping the puck away from Michigan goal. Willard Ikola played remark- able hockey in the nets for the Wolverines in holding Nodak stars in the driver's seat with three games remaining to play while North Dakota and Denver have al- ready finished league competition for the season. Minnesota, currently tied with the Nodaks on top of the league standings, hassticompiled1 Sae.
