The job is more hazardous than a window washer's on the Empire State building. Every Saturday evening finds the nation knee deep in alleged upsets, putting the pigskin prognostigator farther and farther out on the limb. Minnesota beats Illinois, Pittsburg edges Notre Dame,' Ohio State knocks off Wisconsin. Each result seems almost totally out of the realm of possibility, but it happens. Sometimes one school in particular goes out of its way to do the. unbelievable and stirs up a small degree of personal resentment among the crystal ball sportwriters. Notre Dame has affected this reporter that way this season. In their opener with Penn the Irish were figured to be at lease a one touchdown underdog by game-time. But despite the fact that Penn shoved them all over the field, they managed to salvage a tie. Ties don't count in predictions. Result-one loss. The following, Saturday Notre Dame faced powerful Texas, then ranked number three in the national polls. Taking into consideration the fact that the South Benders didn't impress their first game and that the game was going to be played in Texas, the odds seemed definitely to favor the Longhorns. Notre Dame Ignores Odds ... SOMIEHOW NOTRE DAME was unaware of the odds, for it rallied in the second half to upset Texas. Another loss for yours truly. By this time it looked like suicide to bet against Notre Dame under any circumstances. So in the third gridiron duel with Pittsburg who would have been foolish enough to pick the Panthers? Nobody did, or so it seemed, which was too bad, recalling that 22-19 upset that Pitt pulled. When unbeaten and widely heralded Purdue played host to the Irish at Lafayette last Saturday, it looked like the percentages would finally catch up with old Notre Dame. No doubt you know what happened. The Boilermakers went wild giving the ball away and ND wound up smelling like roses. The results thus far: Notre Dame 4, Jenks 0. The Irish play a polio-stricken North Carolina team tomorrow. Who would you pick? Where Was Terrific -ed? THE EMERGENCE of Ted Kress as Michigan's newest sensation poses a problem to those who are familiar with the Wolverine football situation. Why was he held back while -inferior personnel played ahead of him last year? The papers parrot the athletic office statement to the effect that Mr. Kress was injured last year. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Kress was as ready to go physically last year as he ever will be. He always has been a "Joe Condition." The only apparent reason for his benching was psychological. The terrific tailback is admittedly an unstable carrier, as evidenced by his six fumbles last week, but his potential is so great it far outweighs this handicap. If you remember, Michigan's tailback last year failed to provide the Wolverine attack with any punch. Although he had tremendous heart, he was very average as a runner, passer or blocker. Under-his leadership the Maize and Blue experienced its worst season In over a decade. What would have occurred had the coaches gambled with Kress is pure speculation, but the results couldn't have been much worse, and possibly they would have been significantly better. The strange case of Bob Hurley is another puzzler. For three years now fullback Hurley has been the talk of spring practice. He runs hard, is relatively fast, and is perhaps the hardest worker on the squad. Many of the players themselves have wondered why the Alamosa, Colorado, youth was kept under wraps. While nine of 10 players would have quit in discouragement, Hurley hung in there in the belief that someday "they" would have to use him. He did get his chance, but a back inury last week hurt his future career. 11 m 11 ) Drill Shows Howell Back In TopForm Coach Bennie Oosterbaan put his charges through a stiff but contactless workout yesterday in the final full-scale practice before tomorrow's contest with Minneso- ta. The spirited Wolverines looked razor sharp as they ran through a series of defensive drills against Gopher plays, followed by a brief kicking and punt return exercise, and topped off by a lengthy dum- my scrimmage. * * A MICHIGAN'S number one of- fensive unit of Ted Topor at quar- terback, Ted Kress and Frank Howell at the halves, and Dick Balizhiser at fullback, charged through the imaginary Gopher forward wall with amazing speed and precision. Howell, at top form for the first time since the Michigan State opener, raced over the turf with all his old cat-like quickness. The Muskegon Heights senior was so dogged on his hard-charg- ing rushes that at one time he collided with blocker Tad Stan- ford, causing a cut over the Mich- igan end's eye. Stanford was hit when he fell down in front of Howell, whose foot struck him on the head. *I * * QUARTERBACKING the num- ber two Maize and Blue backfield was sophopore Duncan McDonald, The University golf course closes for the season on Sun- day night, Oct. 26.

The Kappa Sigs' thereby retire the IM fraternity cross country trophy, winning today for the third time. * *-* ALTHOUGH the swift Cutting took first place, the Kappa Sigs tallied 24 points to win, on the ba- sis of a' fourth, eighth, and 12th place finish. The winner was de- cided on a low score basis. Kappa Sigma had it pretty much to themselves, with the second place teams, Lambda Chi Alpha and Sigma Phi Ep- silon, tying at 34 points. Phi Delta Theta was fourth with 56, and Acacia fifth with 59.

The passing of Robert Cary ac- counted for all of the Law Club's scores, except for a safety scored early in the first half. Cary con- nected with Dave Ray, Dave Dowd, and Phil Reamon for the touch- downs. Mike Papistai, Dowd, and Reamon were on the receiving end of aerials for the respective extra points. an easy time of it also, racking up a time of nine minutes, 18 seconds over the course of slightly under two miles. He crossed the finish line 18 seconds ahead of second place man, Lambda Chi Alpha's Dick Brown.John Filden of Sig- ma Chi was third. THE RACE itself saw Cutting' jump.out to an early lead. onlyvto lose it to Kappa Sigmas' John Piazza at the first quarter. Cutting made his bid at the halfway mark, and roared past Piazza and the rest of the field to win going away. Piazza, however, had a big hand in Kappa Sign. -riiing team total, as he flashed to a. fourth place finish. The other two men who placed for Kap- pa Sigma were Rad Fisher, eighth, and Jack Kinnel, 12th. For second place Lambda Chi Alpha, in addition to Brown's sec- ond place finish, Marc McQuiggan came in 14th and Dave West 18th For the Sig Eps, besides Cuttings first place, Warren Wood placed 13th and Jim Hellenberg 20th. FINISHERS in the top ten not already mentioned include Ph Delta Theta's Tom Edwards, who took fifth, the sixth -place Ron Fisher of Pi Lambda Phi, Bill Dei- ner of Chi Psi, seventh, ninth plac finisher Bob Young of Sigma Al. pha Epsilon, and Frank Winde of Acacia, who finished 10th. Pi Lambda Phi with 65 ,points Sigma Alpha Epsilon with 73 points, and Chi Psi with 82 points were the sixth, seventh, and eighth place, respectively, in the meet.

Once again senior Bill Billings got off a string.of booming punts with Tony Branoff, Lowell Perry, Don Oldham, Dave Tinkham, Dan Cline and Howell alternately on the receiving ends. OOSTERBAAN'S rugged defen- sive eleven put in a long afternoon, working to stop Minnesota run- ning and passing plays, and wind- ing up with a rushing the kicker workout. Ex-Wolverine grid captain Bill Putich masqueraded as Paul Giel in the "red-shirt" back- field, going so far as to wear Giel's white-shirted number i1 in addition to emulating the standout Minnesotan's passing and running prowess. Linebackers Laurie LeClaire and Roger Zatkoff stopped the simu- lated Ski-U-Mah attack with in- creasing frequency, and Gene Knutson and Captain Merritt Green played their usual heads-up game at the defensive end spots. Rescorla and Tinkham patrolled the secondary, spelled by Cline, Oldham, Stan Knickerbocker and Baer. Tackles Jim Balog and Art Walker impressed in rushing the kicker, with Walker taking a punt right in the gut. The sophomore tackle ran back to his position with a wide grin across his face.
