GOP South Drive
Nixon Continues Bitter Criticism
Of Truman's Korean War Policy
By The Associated Press
Gov. Adlai Stevenson scoffed last night at claims the South
would gain politically by voting Republican, and President Truman
told a Harlem audience a GOP victory would endanger what progress
has been made in the civil rights field.
While the Democrats' oratorical big guns were appealing to lis-
teners -generally on opposite sides of the civil rights issue, Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower took a short rest at Denver from his Repub-
lican campaign for the Presidency.

Wolverines Outgained by Hoosiers
By DICK SEWELL
Daily Associate Sports Editor
A smooth-working Michigan football team successfully opened its
1952 Big Ten campaign with an easy 28-13 victory over an outmanned
Indiana eleven here yesterday.
An estimated 56,500 fans were on hand to watch the Wolverines
chalk up their first win of the season. Although outgained in total
yardage, 355 to 341, the Maize and Blue was never in real danger.

The decision, an informant said,

On the basis of latest informa-

are trying to determine the an-

Progressives Fail
To Find New Site
The Progressive Party as of last
night was still unable to obtain a
meeting hall to hold a rally Oct.
19 for Paul Robeson and Vincent
Hallinan, their candidate for Pres-
ident.
At the present time the Progres-
sives are considering resubmitting
an amended bill of complaint to
the Circuit Court in order to prove
that the supposed damages they
suffered when the Masonic Temple
was denied their use cannot be
remedied by a financial settlement
alone.
Stadium May Be Opened
To Young --Polio Patient
Dicky Brink didn't make it to
the football game yesterday-but
he may yet see a game this season
if "conditions are favorable."
The nine-year-old University
Hospital polio patient, who has
been confined to an "iron lung,"
had hoped to view the Michigan-
Indiana game from a chest res-
pirator in a wheelchair until he
was told that tickets were not
available because of . policy
against wheelchairs in the stadium.
HOWEVER, Athletic Director
H. O. Crisler announced on a radio.

without any risk either to him or
to any of the players."
The policy against wheel-
chairs exists, Crisler explained,
because of the lack of facilities
within the stadium. He said that,
any wheelchair would have to
be brought in through the tun-'
nel, but that this was impossible
yesterday because of the conges-
tion caused by the high school
students participating in "Band
Day."
Crisler emphasized that precau-
tions must be taken against pos-
sible injury both to the players
and the patient. He recalled a
time when Doak Walker, former
Southern Methodist halfback, was
thrown into a wheelchair and in-
jured along with the chair's occu-
pant.
"No one has more sympathy for
Dickie Brink than I," the athletic
director stated. He added; "I do
hope that everybody who became
interested in this will respond as
generously in their contribution
to the polio fund as they have to
the criticism in this case."-

As was expected, the vaunted
Indianapassing attack provided
most of the trouble for Michi-
gan. Hoosier quarterbacks Lou
D'Achille and Dick Ashburner
filled the air with 38 tosses for
211 yards. However, Wolverine
beavers Ted Kress and Ted To-
por beat the visitors at their
own game, connecting on 12 of
17 throws for 184 yards-an
average of 15.3 yards per com-
pletion.
On the ground, Indiana stepped
off 144 yards, 108 of them coming
in the opening half. Michigan
chalked up 157 yards rushing, all
but 65 of them in the last' two
quarters.
RESERVE quarterback Duncan
McDonald's successful try for the
extra point following a third quar-
ter touchdown plunge by freshman
Tony Branoff provided the Wol-
verines with what proved to be
the winning margin.
Branoff's six-point dive cul-
minated a 69 yard drive begn
the first time the Wolverine
gridders handled the pigskin in
the second half.
After Dave Tinkham returned
Hoosier Florian Helinski's punt to
the Michigan 31, Branoff, Kress
and company moved the ball to
the Indiana 21 yard line in 11
plays.
ON THE next try from scrim-
mage, Branoff took Topor's hand-
off and dove over right guard for
the score. McDonald's kick made
it 14-6 with six minutes and 16
seconds left in the third quarter.
The blue-shirted victors added
an insurance marker less than
three minutes later.
After three Indiana trys failed
to get the necessary yardage, Hel-
inski booted to the Wolverin~es who
returned to their own 37. Topor,
Branoff and fullback Bob Hurley
combined to give Michigan a first
down on their own 48.

AT THIS juncture Kress and
ace flanker Lowell1Perry shattered
any remaining Hoosier hopes with
a perfectly executed 52-yard pay-
dirt pass play.
Taking a direct pass from cen-
ter, Kress faded, looked mo-
mentarily at Perry who was cov-
ered closely by Indiana halfback
George Byers, and then turned
as if to throw to Branoff.
Defender Byers relaxed for an
instant, Perry burst into the clear,

Daily Associate Editor
As Yost would say, yesterday was a Great Big Michigan After-
noon, but it was also a great big day for a 16-year-old Dearborn drum
majorette.
The Wolverines got back to winning ways and snowed under the
Indiana Hoosiers 28-13. Most of the 56,500 partisan fans took the
victory in stride, just like they did when Michigan held down top,
national honors.
DURING THE half-time, 6,176 well-trained high school bands-
men swarmed over the turf in their annual colorful spectacle. But
most student eyes were focused on dazzling Sally Geier, a leaping,!
twisting, vivacious baton-twirler.
Clad in orange shorts and net stockings, Miss Geier was a
marked girl from the moment she led her Dearborn High School
bandsmen onto the field.
Miss Geier was good but unfortunately few students in the west
stands were watching the painstaking performance of the other 6,000
high school students.
BAND DIRECTOR Prof. William D. Revelli noticed this and asked
