MOOR THU £ SDAY,'NOVEMBER 6, 1952 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE TIIIJI~SDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1952 PAGE THREE S SPORTS SLANTS By Ed Whipple WHITHER GO THE Wolverines now?' Coach Bennie Oosterbaan's stalwarts battle Cornell Saturday shadowed by precisely the background that haunted them in a 20-7 loss to the Big Red last November. For the second straight year Michigan has lost to Michigan State and Stanford, forged into the Conference lead with three straight wins, and then succumbed to Illinois. The current question is will the Wolverines complete the car- bon copy of last season's performance, striking off down the trail of no return to lose the next two games to Cornell and Purdue? Or can they locate the tracks of the 1952 eleven who finished in a blaze of glory to win Big Ten and Rose Bowl titles after tying Minnesota and losing to Illinois? Cornell doesn't seem to be much. The Big Red has been about as potent as a beaver with a toothache in losing five of six starts this season. After a shutout by Yale, Coach Lefty James was confronted with a problem that would be amusing if it weren't so tragic: Upon which should he concentrate practice drills-his passing attack or his running game? Against Yale the Ithacans had gained something like three yards passing and five yards rushing. Cornell Improved.. . HOWEVER, SINCE THEN Captain Bill Whelan, Cornell's best run- 4ier, has fully recovered from a broken collar bone to add some sting to James' attack. Also, James may have his crew "up" higher than a cat's back, as Illinois was last week, and that could mean dif- ficulty for the Wolverines. The Big Red should be its strongest of the season against Michigan. And if Cornell turns up some rugged opposition, it's nothing to what Purdue should present two weeks hence. Ohio State, last foe on Michigan's 1952 schedule, is another toughie. Oosterbaan, a bit despondent over Saturday's upset, viewed the future philosophically yesterday. "We're going to do the best we can from here on," he de- clared.' If that "best" is enough to beat Cornell, Purdue, and the Buckeyes, the Wolverines can do no worse than tie for the Big Ten Championship with a 5-1 record. Here are the remaining sched- ules of the four top Conference teams (league record in paren- thesis): Michigan Cagers Sport New Look, By DICK LEWIS Like women's fashions, Michi- gan's basketball team has a new look. The fire-house brand of court play, synonomous with a fast- break offense, has made its entry on the Wolverine hoop scene. * * * THAT WAS apparent last night when first-year coach Bill Perigo unveiled the 1952-53 version of the Maize and Blue hoopsters in a dark-house clash with a contin- gent of ex-Michigan hardwood standouts. The rejeuvenated Wolverines literally ran the pants off the opposition with a display of raz- zle-dazzle that built up an 18-3 margin at the end of the first period and expanded the gap to 69-36 at the final horn. Some new faces graced the Yost Field House floor in addition to Perigo, former Western Michigan 1952 BASKETBALL SCHEDULE DECEMBER 1-Marquette, here 6-Pittsburgh, here 13-Iowa, there 15-flhinois, there 20-Indiana, there 22-Purdue, there 29-Butler, here JANUARY 3-Indiana, here 5-Ohio State, here 10-Northwestern, there 12-Iowa, here 17-Michigan State, here 31-Washington (St. Louis), there FEBRUARY 9-Illinois, here 14-Wisconsin, there 16-Minnesota, there 21-Wisconsin, here 23-Northwestern, here 28-Minnesota, here MARCH 2-Purdue, here 7-Michigan State, there6 9-Ohio State, there mentor, assistant coach Matt Pat- tinelli, also from Western Michi- gan, and old reliable Dave Strack, the affable freshman tutor. CAVORTING at the starting forward positins were two second yeardmen, John Codwell and Milt Mead. Codwell, who appeared in a limited role during 14 contests last season while meshing 34 points, was a big factor as the Wolverines monopolized the con- test throughout. Hampered by a pulled thigh muscle that has forced him out of practice for two weeks, the 6-4 Houston, Texas junior contribut- ed six tallies and good strength under the boards to the Wolverine attack. s s s MEAD, Michigan's number two scorer in 1951-52 with 238 markers, retains his accurate one-hand shot from outside and ability to grab the ball off from underneath. Hit- ting on four of eleven chances from the floor, Bay City's 6-7 ball hawk netted nine points. A 6-5 sophomore from Maple- wood, New Jersey, is the new pivot operator for the Maize and Blue hardwood warriors. Angular Paul Groffsky, rated as a top prospect by the Michigan coaching staff, showed the crisp and accurate passing necessary for fast-break precision. He throt- tled Jim Skala, last season's cap- tain with nine tallies, seven com- ing in the second half. * * * TWO PEPPERPOT backcourt men are the race horses in the new Maize and Blue offensive pat- tern. Agile Don Eaddy appeared in good form after discarding foot- ball this fall as he tallied four baskets. Playing regularily as a freshman last year, Eaddy fun- nelled in 188 counters, notching most of these on his deadly two- hand set shot. Eaddy is sided by fiery Ray Pa- vichevich, the hustling Hoosier. Pavichevich has switched from the forward spot to the backcourt area, and the 5-11, East Chicago, Indiana junior seems to be just what the doctor (and Perigo) or- dered. NOTCHING most of his points on driving layups, "Pav" threw in 17 last night, hitting on eight of 18 field goals attempt and one free throw. His nine-point spurt in the third quarter broke the ball game wide open. Backing up this starting unit, Perigo has a wealth of proven strength. CAPTAIN Doug Lawrence, in- spirational leader of the squad, is good enough proof that the little man still has his place in basket- ball. The diminutive (5-8) senior crowd-pleaser contributed four points against the ex-Michigan cagers. In the disastrous 1951-52 campaign he notched 147. Up-and-down in practice for the last month, sophomore Ralph Kauffman had one of his up nights, pouring through five of ten shots from the floor. He has been declared eligible once again, after sitting out the latter half of last year, and is highly re- garded in the Maize and Blue youth movement., Nine other top-notch perform- ers round out the 16-man varsity combine. Veterans Carl Brunsting, Bruce Allen, Syd Cook and Dave Krupp are back for another whirl. Jerry Stern and John Fortenberry are forward candidates as is red-head- ed Paul Geyer, who missed last season with a leg injury. A couple of fugitives from other sports round out the Wolverine ag- gregate. Leo Schlicht, football im- migrant, has been working out in the pivot post, while high-jumper Howie Liverance plays at a for- ward. Wolverines In Contact 'Griddrills Michigan's preparations for the Cornell game Saturday are in di- rect contrast to those of last week before the Illinois game. Ben Oosterbaan sent his charges through their second straight day of body contact work yesterday. The varsity again ran offensive plays against a Cornell defense, provided by the reserves. * * . * LAST WEEK, with a host of men on the injured list, body con- tact was outlawed in practice ses- The "M" Club will meet to- night at 7:30 in the "M" room at the Yost Field House.

Ted Kress, recovering from a sprained ankle in the Illinois game, was looking in good shape again yesterday and should be in top condition by Saturday. Kress performed his usual tail- back duties capably with no hint of the injury remaining. Michigan's only other back on the injured list, Tom Witherspoon is still in doubtful shape. * * * The Wolverines' defensive pla- toon will be ready Saturday with defensive guard Ron Williams back in condition. Williams suffered a mishap similar to Kress' in the Il- linois game. The day's practice session end- ed in a dummy scrimmage with the varsity running and passing their plays against mute defenders.

Bob Cary called signals for Law Club and figured in the scoring, when he threw a screen pass to Dave Ray at his left. Ray then tossed a long cross field pass to Bill Reamon who clutched it in the end zone. THIS TOUCHDOWN effort was preceeded shortly by a safety as Len Kravets rushed the Phi Del- ta Phi backfield and tagged the passer. Law Club's record of having never been scored on in two; years nearly dented as Phi Delta Phi drove to the five yard line,i but the Law Club put up aa staunch defense. The Law Club also had a rec- ord of never punting in a game for two years. This record was ended since the Club had to punt in the first half. The game was protested by Phi Delta Phi. * * * A CLOSE contest between Alpha Epsilon Pi and Sigma Alpha Ep- silon resulted with the latter on the heavy end of a 817 score.

John Taylor completed a 30 yard aerial to Tony Corneliuson for six of the points. Howard Welch tagged Zarrow in the end zone for the decisive points re- quired for victory. * * * ZETA BETA TAU shut out The- ta Delta Chi, 7-0, in a third place semi-final game.

'THERE IS NOTHING to gain by giving up hope for an undisputed title and/or a Rose Bowl trip yet either. For an undisputed title Michigan needs victories over Purdue and OSU, plus another defeat each for Wisconsin, Minnesota, and the Boilermakers. For the Pasadena junket, twd Michigan victories plus another loss to Wisconsin would do the trick, because, should the Wolverines tie Purdue for the title, the Maize and Blue probably could bank on Rose Bowl nomination for winning the contest between the two co- champions. The same would hold for a tie with Minnesota. Michigan's chances now may appear poor, but they're cer- tainly no worse than at the same stage two years back. Then an- other Oosterbaan team journeyed to Columbus on the last day of the season needing not only a win over the favored Buckeyes, but also a Northwestern upset of Illinois for the championship and Rose Bowl trip. Both games ended in favor of the Wolverines. Weather, that great equalizer, can play an important part in Big Ten affairs, especially late in the season. For instance, Purdue and Wisconsin both play Minnesota in Minneapolis, where snow is likely any time after Columbus Day. Snow and damp weather made the difference between Michigan and OSU and Northwestern and Illinois two years ago. Whatever the other foes do, Michigan fans will hAve an oppor- tunity to see first hand which way the Wolverines go from here. They take two big strides the next two weekends in the Stadium.

Opening Monday Evenings Til 8:30 IIN*KERaai6, KAHN TAJLVREV 'LVTH ES 613 EAST WILLIAM STREET GRIDIRON PROGRESS REPORT: Frosh Team Rounds into Shape Under Coach Weber I[[ .,.. _"' By PAUL GREENBERG After the high-flying Illini dam- pened Michigan's hopes for a trip to Pasadena last Saturday, a lot of observers have started to look to next year. Important in the forecast for 1953 are the freshman gridders who have been toiling daily under the guidance of Coach Wally Web- er and his staff. Many of the freshman have worked out with the varsity and have continued to flash impres- sive form before observers and it seems as if the rookie crop of gridders is a good one. A lot of top-flight material has turned up in the quarterback and the end position-ready to step into supporting roles on the var- sity next fall. At quarterback, Louis Baldacci from Akron, Ohio has drawn a lot of attention. BALDACCI, a rugged 195 pound- er can do just al~out anything with a football and do it well. Also impressive in the play-calling role have been Fred Driver from Niagra Falls, New York, and Gordon Barnes from Owosso. Barnes also looks like a fine s safety man and pass defender. At end, the team is well stocked with fine performers in John Kuchka from Berwick, Pennsyl- vania, Phil Endres from Grand Rapids, and Gerr; Williams and Lee Jones from Flint. At the all-important single wing tailback slot, Tom Hendricks from Detroit, George McKinley from Norwalk, Ohio and Charles Hen- wood from Wayne are leading the pack. down the first string wingback spot on the Wolverine varsity, some of his contemporaries in the class of '56 are going to give him a rough battle for his position next year. Jack Wheeler from Ypsilanti, George Corey from Baden, Penn- sylvania, Dick Basich from Delta, Ohio and Bob Ames from Al- gonac all have shown class op- erating from right halfback. The fullback problem which lately has given Coach Ben Oost- erbaan and his backfield mentor George Ciethaml a great big headache will get a big lift from the freshmen.' Although the en- tire trio of Dick Balzhizer, Bob Hurley and Fred Baer returns, they'll really have to hustle to keep Earl Johnson of Muskegon Heights, Bob Hitchmough of Pet- oskey and Sal Dimucci of Chicago on the bench. JOHNSON, older and heavier brother of Tom, first-string tackle for Michigan in 1950 and 1951. along with DiMucci has seen a lot of action at line backer. That pair i and John Peckham from Sioux Falls, South Dakota have proved rugged operatives on defense. John Morrow, a native Ann Arborite leads the tackle crop and he along with Charles Krahnke from Charlevois, Ches- ter Kasper from Oak Park, Illi- nois and Dave Shultz from Rockford, Michigan look like they have the class and size needed to play against Western Conference opposition. Guard, a position that will be heavily hit by graduation, has some good talent among the fresh- men including Wil Brown and Jim McCarthy from Toledo, Jim Fox from Saginaw and Bob Mar- ion, a Muskegon Heights product. With Dick O'Shaughnessy re- turning in 1953, line coach Jack Blott doesn't have to worry about looking for a new pivotman, but Harry Kirby from Dayton, Ohio will give him some depth.
