(Continued from Page 1) verine Captain Tim Green pounceda on it. A penalty set Michigan back toj the seven yard line, but tailback Ted Kress, leading ground gainer for the afternoon, slanted off tackle to the one, and fumbled. Wingback Tony Branoff grabbed the ball in the end zone for six points. Russ Rescorla missed thez conversion. Kress sprinted around end for 22 yards and another score 10 min- untes and 10 seconds later. Res- corla converted and itawas flli- nois 22, Michigan 13. Then it be- gan to look as if the Maize and Blue might make the grade. Starting on its own 20, Michi- gan forged 73 yards on running by, Branoff and Kress and a 23- yard pass from Quarterback Ted Topor to Perry. But the drive stalled when the Wolverines failed to make a yard in two attempts from the Illinois 8. Fullback Dick Balzhiser made no yardage up the middle and Top- or was smeared on a quarterback sneak to give the Illini the ball on downs. That was the turning point for Maize and Blue fortunes. The Wol- verines got their hands on the ball three more times, but the Illinois defense stiffened, and Michigan got no closer than the Illinois 45 yard line. * . * MICHIGAN'S defense found it- self along with the Wolverine of- fense. Illinois gained only 46 yards in the second half. O'Connell com- pleted five more passes for 14 yards to run his total aerial yard- age to 124 for the afternoon. That total was slightly less than the 181 yards he averaged during Illinois' first five games. Of Michigan's'209-yard-total (163 in the second half) Kress gained 92 yards in 21 tries. Il- linois's top runner was Miller with 78 yards in 14 carries. As for the Rose Bowl, and a Con- ference championship, Michigan must beat Purdue and Ohio State for a tie for league honors. Assuming Wisconsin wins its re- maining games with Minnesota, Indiana, and Northwestern, and Purdue loses to Michigan, but beats Indiana and Minnesota, Michigan could make a three way tie for the championship with the Boiler- makers and Badgers." Then the Rose Bowl representa- tive would be selected by vote. The referendum would likely favor Wis- consin for a better overall season record.

Few words were spoken as the disillusioned Wolverines hurried through their showers. Coach. Ben Oosterbaan moved slowly about the hushed room. He took the de- feat philosophically, crediting the Illini with a fard-fought, well-de- served victory. RELUCTANT to name any sin- gle Michigan player as outstand- ing, Oosterbaan felt that "every- one gave all he had from start to finish," and that the loss was "just one of those things." When asked by one sports- writer whether a Michigan touchdown on the fourth quar- ter drive which carried to the Illinois nine wouldn't have been a big help, the Maize and Blue mentor smiled slowly and admit- -Daily--Malcolm Shatz DOWN THE SIDELINES-Illinois fullback Ken Miller races down the sidelines shortly before being tackled by defensive halfback Dave Tinkham. GeorgiaTech Tops Unbeaten Duke; UCLA Rolls over California, 2 1-7 ted that "it would have been' jnice." "But," he was quick to add, "they stopped us cold and deserve more credit for it." Across the tunnel in the Illi- nois locker room the visitors whooped it up loud and long. Flash bulbs popped like artillery flares as eager photographers took shots of the upset leaders. ILLINI COACH Ray Eliot had nothing but respect to pay the Wolverines. "They played a rug- ged, clean game all the way," he commented. Eliot and his grinning assist- ants felt that the two blocked kicks early in the contest were instrumental in the Illinois tri- umph. "That gave our boys the confidence they needed," Eliot said happily. Illinois coaches singled out Michigan tailback Ted Kress for special comment. "He is a fine runner and was a thorn in our side all afternoon," Eliot noted. He also had words of praise for Wolverines Tim Green, Don Dug- ger and Roger Zatkoff. As for his own team, Eliot listed end Frank Wodziak, guard Bob Lenzini and fullback Ken Miller as being especially effective. The bespectacled mentor ex- pressed concern over the Illinois injury list. Wodziak suffered a wrenched shoulder, flanker Cliff Waldbeser a dislocated elbow, and Miller a twisted ankle. Michigan trainer Jim Hunt re- ported no serious physical in- juries, but an abundant crop of physical and mental bruises.

A near capacity crowd of 49,500, which topped the Notre Dame at tendance here by 500, saw Michi-' gan State roll for two easy touchy downs in the first half but falter in the second half as Purdue held the nation's top-rated team score- less during the last two periods. A POOR PUNT by Norm Mont- gomery, which went only to the Purdue 28 yard line, helped set up the first score. After two running plays car- ried the ball to the 21 yard line, big Don McAuliffe blasted through for a first down on the Purdue 15. Bill Wells broke away to the two yard line and McAuliffe toppled himself over for the score. A fumble by Purdue quarterback Dale Samuels, recovered on the Michigan State 42 by Ed Lue, gave the Spartans another chance. MICHIGAN STATE drove down to the seven yard line with Mc- Auliffe and Wells alternating in the carrying. Yewcic skirted right end into touchdown territory. He fumbled in the end zone but the ball was ruled dead and the score counted. With two minutes left in the game Purdue powered from its own 20 yard line all the way to the Michigan State eight. Sam- uels and Roy Evans were hitting their receivers to eat up the dis- tance. Samuels threw one too many, however. Linebacker Doug Weav- er intercepted a pass by Samuels just in front of the goal line to break up the attack.

In the two headline attractions, bowl-bound Georgia Tech, defeat- ed Duke, 28-7, in a battle of un- beattens, and U.C.L.A., all but knocked California out of the Rose Bowl with a 28-7 victory over the Golden Bears, the favorites to win the Pacific Coast Conference title before the season started. * * * BOTH THESE games were toss- ups, so no matter which team won, the result would not have been a surprise. For Georgia Tech, the triumph was the Ramblin' Wrecks' sev- enth without a loss and all but assured them of a bowl bid-- probably the Sugar or Orange. Duke, the Southern Conference powerhouse, could not contain Tech's galloping backs, Leon Hardeman, Glenn Turner and Billy Teas, and that was the story. Worth (a million) Lutz, Duke's celebrated quarterback, was throt- tled completely by the Tech de- fense and was benched late in the first half. A stunned crowd of about 45,000 watched at Durham, N. C. ** * * U.C.L.A. GRABBED the lead in the first period before a gather- ing of 81,000 in Berkeley, Calif., when Paul Cameron passed to Er- nie Stockert. The Bruins, who now rate co-favorites with idle South- ern California for the P. C. C. crown, notched another one in the third period on a Cameron to Stockert pass following a fumble by Johnny Olszewski, and made their final tally in the last quarter on a toss from Ted Narleski to Ike Jones. Michigan State, Maryland, and Oklahoma which rang 1-2-3 in the weekly Associated Press Poll, continued to roll along al- though the top-ranked Spartans had only a narrow 14-7 margin over Purdue, the Big Ten leader Maryland polished off Boston University, 34-7, and Oklahoma had nothing more than a brisk workout at the expense of Iowa State, 41-0. Kansas, which still has hopes of beating out Oklahoma for the Big Seven title, walloped Kan- sas State, 26-6. Today's action, coupled with Vil- lanova's 20-20 tie with the Parris Island 'Marines lasttnight, left the list of unbeaten and untied, teams among the major colleges! at five-Michigan State (6-0), Maryland (7-0), Georgia Tech (7-0), Southern California (6-0) 4V ialist, also converted after three Ohio touchdowns. the The five-foot, five-inch Weed, with quarterback John Borton holding, plunked the big boot from a spot about 15 yards to the side of the goal posts. Northwestern erased a 7-0 defi- cit in the opening period on a lucky fumble recovery in the end zone and moved ahead in the second 1U and U.C.L.A. (7-0). Duke and Vi-I period as quarterback Dick Thomas lanova dropped out. OHIO STATE 24, NORTHWESTE OHIO STATE 24, NORTHWESTERN 21 The smallest player in the Big Ten, 128-pound Tad Weed, booted a difficult 17-yard field goal to climax a 17-point fourth period rally which gave Ohio State a thrilling 24-21'victory over North- western today. Trailing 21-7 entering the final quarter of this nationally-televised conference game, Ohio State punched across two touchdowns for a 21-21 tie and then calmly booted his deciding three-pointer with six minutes left. * * * WEED, SOLELY a kicking spec- rifled two long touchdown passes to end Joe Collier. After a scoreless third period, it appeared that Northwestern could easily nurse its 14-point lead to victory. But a poor 10-yard Northwest- ern punt early in the fourth per- iod enabled halfback Fred Bruney to scoot across from the two yard line. Minutes later, the Buckeyes scored quickly on Borton's 42- yard payoff pass to Bruney, who grabbed the ball on the 10 and did some fancy dodging to make the end zone.
