THE MICHIGAN DAILY TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1952 I U _____________________________________________________ MSC Takes HI JINKS ... by John Jenks OR ALL INTENTS and purposes the football season is now over for the Big Ten. Only the Rose Bowl game remains on the agenda. Wisconsin, the representative-elect, must concern itself with devising Ways and means of stopping Southern Cal. The other eight members have stowed away their sporting tools till the start of festivities next year and will probably pass the off-season hashing over the fall results. One thing, perhaps more than anything else, stands out aboutf he recent campaign-it was the most unusual and exiciting titleI race in many years. Upsets seemed to be the rule rather than theI exception, making it possible for any one team to beat an arch rival >n a given day.7 The final Saturday typified the whole season. Minnesota1 managed a tie with Wisconsin, Ohio State dropped Michigan from first to fourth with its win, and lowly Indiana ended the year' on the Purdue- one yard line. Illinois, which at the start of the season was considered by many to be a strong defender of its crown, finished the year one game out of the conference basement,, losing the season's finale to lightly re, garded Northwestern. Still Lots to Cheer About... THOUGH EXPERIENCING a comparatively medicore 5-4 campaign, Michigan gave its supporters a lot to cheer about by staying in the running until the last game. The Wolverines played interesting ball whether they were winning or losing. The general unsettled state of affairs that prevailed within the conference was hard on both coaches and fans, but most people agree that it signified a healthy relationship among the cofer- ence teams. All too often one team stands head and shoulders above the rest of the league and usually the same select few produce that one team In the past the' Big Ten's underlings rarely posed a threat to the powers, getting their sole joy out of knocking each other off. Theoretically the conference was founded with the idea of grouping together those institutions of similar academic and athletic standings. This necessarily implies that there should be a high degree of competition among the various outfits, and that no one aggregation should win all of its games all of the time. Unfortunately there are some circles that will not accept their basic tenet. These are the over-zealous alumni who regard losing a ball game as disastrous as a major depression and start hollering for scalps at the first signs of adversity. * * * * OSU Hotbed of Radicalism.. .. THOUGH EVERY SCHOOL has its share of this type of fan, in- cluding Michigan, it appears that about 90 per cent of them make their abode in Columbus within the shadow of Ohio State. The first-time visitor to the Ohio capitol is shocked by the existing atti- tude of the populace. Students, alums, factory workers-all get in the act. The people eat, breathe and, sleep football-winning fotball. Just before the contest last Saturday the papers screamed: It's Beenx Eight Long Years! Another local journal observed: It's Not Dislike-t's Just Hate If the sentiment along High Street meant anything, and usually it does, Woody Hayes would be jobless today if his boys hadn't won Saturday. While In one of the favorite campus hangouts-a bar- this -correspondent, overheard one shaggy looking character make this comment to his equally shabby looking partner: "The other day ' at the Monday Morning Quarterbacks Club I was talking to Woody (Hayes), and I asked him why he did such and such a thing last Saturday, and do you know, he didn't even give me an answer. Now what kind of a coach is that, I ask you?" Peaceful Ann Arbor is really a relief after one weekend in the maddened town of Columbus. Sometimes the lethargic attitude of some oft the students bothers the more enthusiastic fans, but almost every camp follower last Saturday will agree that winning football games isn't the paramount objective in life.

University Ph. 3-1733 "Open Friday Evenings 'til 9" NCAAMeet EAST LANSING, Mich.-()-- Charlie Capozzoli, a 125-pound featherweight runner from Georgetown University, whizzed around the four mile course in a winning time of 19 minutes, 36.7 seconds to set a new NCAA cross country record here Monday. His time shattered the old rec- ord qf 19.52.3 set by Bob Boack of Rhode Island State in 1948. * * * MICHIGAN STATE won the team title with a low of 65 points, barely edging out second place In- diana with 68 points. The victory made Michigan State the undis- puted national cross country champ since the Sartans pre- viously had taken firsts in the Big Ten and IC4A meets. Iowa was third with 103 points and Syracuse and Penn State tied for fourth with 110 points each. Capozzoli, a one-man entry, came here without a coach, train- er or companion. He was the IC4A individual winner and was a U.S. Olympic team member in the 5,000 meter run. s . * DICK FERGUSON of Iowa was in the lead at the one mile mark but Capozzoli overtook him half- All Football Letterwinners will please report to Rentsch- ler's Studio, 319 East Huron, at 12:15 p.m., Monday, December 1, for the 1952 team picture. -Bennie Oosterbaan way around the course and was in front of the pack of 97 runners the rest of the way.

Jim Kepford of Michigan State was third, Jack Wellman of Indi- ana placed fourth, John Walter of Michigan State fifth and Fer- guson sixth. All did the ditstance in less than 20 minutes. Other team finishers: 6, Miami of Ohio, 145 points; 7, San Diego State, 181 points.

Bowl Games Again Under Fire, By BOB MARGOLIN With the annual season of the football bowls fast approaching, the dormant controversy over the merits of post-season football games is certain to make a re- appearance for a few weeks at least. Already two news items have provided fodder for Monday morn- ing quarterback bull sessions. * * * ONE WAS the announcement that powerful Oklahoma, fifth ranking eleven in the nation and champion of the Big Seven, would abide to the letter of Big Seven rules and not accept a bid to the Orange Bowl even if invited. This was considered a victory for anti-bowl game adherents as there was much speculation that the Sooners, with a 7-1-1 record, would bolt the Big Sev- en in order to get into the post- season gravy train of money and prestige. Another item that heaped a few twigs on the burning embers was a statement made by Dr. John A. Hannah, president of Michigan State College, in last week's edi- tion of the U.S. News and World Report. * . . DR. HANNAH flatly predicted that the Big Ten would not renew its Rose Bowl contract with the West Coast when it expires Jan. 1. 1954. Dr. Hannah, one of the most athletically minded college pres. idents in the country, is on rec- ord as opposing post-season games. As a new voting member of the Big Ten, Michigan State is expected to carry much weight when renewal time comes up less than two years hence. Michigan's faculty representa- tive to the Western Conference, Prof. Ralph W. Aigler, had "no comment either way" on Han- nah's statement. * * * JUST FOR the record, the North Central Association of Col- leges and Secondary Schools, com- posed of 368 colleges and universi- ties including Michigan and 3,198 secondary schools in the Midwest, has never definitely opposed post- season games. It does, however, frown on long practice sessions and a large num- ber of away games if they inter- fere with studies of the athletes. Even with such sentiment against them, the various Bowl committees do not seem to have been discouraged. Many of them issued invitations early this year, hoping to get the better teams signed up before a competing Bowl could reach them. 11-15 Air Force JACKETS r i i ' I Good Evening, Sir 1 OPEN TILL 8:30 P.M.
