a TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1952 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE ; THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE Three Michigan Foes Gain Pigskin Verdicts Saturday's Action Shows Wolverine Of fense Strong Oosterbaan Will Strengthen Aerial Defense In Preparation for Stanford Passing Attack r By DICK LEWIS Memo to the Wolverine coach-E ing staff: All is not forsaken when you look at what happened to Michigan's eight future foes in Saturday's football action. While the Maize and Blue was suffering a two-touchdown set- back at the hands of powerful Michigan State, only three of the remaining teams on the Michigan schedule could manage victories. Here's what happened: STANFORD: A blocked third- quarter conversion attempt gave the Indians an upset 14-13 tri- umph over Washington State. T Lineman Dick Monteith broke through the Cougar forward wall to smother Ed Barker's kick and preserve the Californians' second successive win. Olympic decathelon hero Bob WELCOME STUDENTS! Specializing in: " Crew Cuts " Flat Tops 0 New Yorkers " Hollywoods Hairstyling to Please The Daseola Barbers near Michigan Theater Mathias set up both touchdowns for the defending Pacific Coast Conference champions. * * * - INDIANA-OHIO STATE: Buck- eye mentor Woody Hayes uncov- ered a new sensation in Howard (Hopalong) Cassady, a red-haired freshman who scored three times in a 33-13 romp over the Hoosiers. There will be an important meeting of all freshman swim-I Sming prospects at 4 p.m. today at the I-M pool. I --Matt Mann Cassady hit paydirt with a 27- yard Fred Bruney aerial, and plunges of six and three yards. The outweighed Indiana eleven held the winners to a 13-13 dead- lock for three periods, but OSUj put together twenty points in the final fifteen minutes to ice the verdict. NORTHWESTERN: Southern Cal exploded for four touchdowns in the final period to romp over the Wildcats, 31-0, before 60,000 West Coast fans. The Evanston combine racked up 12 first downs to 10 for the Trojans, and unveiled an attack that netted 210 yards. A last- ditch USC passing attack snowed under the Mid-Western invaders. * * * ]$IINNESOTA: The University of Washington, with All-American Don Heinrich in the driver's seat, downed the Gophers, 19-13, for its third straight win over Ski-U-Mah. in as many years. Halfback Kermit Klefsaas went off tackle for Minnesota's first points with three minutes gone in the second half, and full back John Baumgartner capped a 63- yard drive by going over from the two-yard line late in the final stanza. ILLINOIS: Quarterback Tom- my O'Connell completed 11 of 16 passes for 191 yards and a touch- down as the Rose Bowl champion Illini took it easy in a 33-7 con- quest of Iowa State. O'Connell found end John Ryan with a 49-yard TD heave, and set up two other scores with his ac- curate air barrage. * * * CORNELL: Colgate achieved its first success over the Red Raiders since 1943 with a 14-7 triumph that was made possible by an in- tercepted pass and a Cornell fum- ble. The losers scored with two minutes left when halfback Lloyd Walters grabbed an 11-yard fiat pass from John Jaeckel, PURDUE: Quarterback Dale Samuels completed 14 of 28 passes for 130 yards, but the Boilermak- ers were forced to settle, for a 20-20 deadlock with underdog Penn State. --Daly--Don Campbell RUNNING IT BACK-An unidentified Michigan State player attempts to trip up Michigan safety- man Lowell Perry (85), returning a State punt in Saturday's action. It looks like Wolverine guard Don Dugger (61) is applying the heave-ho to the Spartan defender, but actually he is getting set to block for Perry. MSC triumphed, 27-13. I-M SEASON UNDERWAY: Dorm Champs Annex Frs ri est By IVAN KAYE Michigan's Wolverines served notice to the Big Ten on Saturday that they are very definitely go- ing to be a force to be reckoned with in the coming conference chase. The overall caliber of the var- sity's play stamps the 1952 edition of the Maize and Blue as a much more powerful ball club than its predecessor.It should be remem- bered that last year's team came within an ace of grabbing the laur- els for the fifth straight season. IFAS THE sportswriters voted. Michigan State is the best squad in the nation, then Michigan cer- tainly rates in the upper strata of college football's teams this sea- son. Saturday's line play was at the least murderous, with the Michigan forwards more than holding their own against the Greenshirts. Particularly out- standing was the defensive end play of Gene Knutson. The big lad from Beloit, Wisconsin show- ed the 97,239 fans just-why he was voted the most improved player of last spring's practice. Excluding Spartan captain Don McAuliffe's 70 yard touchdown rurg the rushing totals for the two teams were about even. The State backs began moving later in the game as the Michigan de- fensive wall showed the effects of the day's gruelling pace. THERE IS no substitute for depth, and no coach realizes this fact better than Ben Oosterbaan who watched his boys wear down before a host of Spartan forwards, Biggie Munn also had a tre- mendous corps'of running back around which to build his of- fense. Some twelve leather-lug- gers constituted his backfield unit, with Billy Wells proving to be the toughest to stop judging from Saturday's encounter. The Wolverines off their initial outing appear to be a team pos- sessed of terrific first string of- fensive and defensive lines, a more than efficient backfield and a glaring defensive weakness in the secondary. The Maize and Blue ground out a total of over three hundred yards against their intra-state foes to prove that they have the ability this year to move the pigskin against even the best of teams. The pass defense however, al- lowed Yewcic and company over two hundred yards on eight com- pletions in sixteen tries. Spartan passes were highly instrumental in three of-their four touchdowns. With a pass-happy Stanford squad on next Saturday's docket, the coaches will undoubtedly devote major efforts to the preparation of an adequate aerial defense.

The touchdown came just be- fore halftime and Wenley success- fully stalled Huber's second half offense to take the victory. * *' * THE PASSING combination of Don Jones to John Eckle featured Greene House's 18-13 victory over Taylor. The game was a nip-and- tuck battle throughout, and Tay- lor led 13-12 with a minute to go. At this point Jones fired his third touchdown pass of the game to Eckle to ice the verdict. In another thriller, Michigan came back after seeing a 6-0 lead melt away, to earn a 12-6 victory over Gomberg in overtime. Dale Ewadt intercepted a Gomberg pass early in the second half and went all the way to put Michigan in the lead. San Francisco Defeats Lions; Browns Score Giants, Bears, Eagles Also Win in Openers A partisan crowd of 54,761 spec- tators was not disappointed Sun- day as the San Francisco 49ers celebrated the opening of the pro- football season by defeating a highly-touted Detroit Lions team, 17-3, in Kezar Stadium. Behind Frankie Albert and Y. A. Tittle, the 49ers quarterback duo, Frisco tallied one touchdown from the air while completing 16 of 27 passes for 164 yards. * * * THE 49ERS first score was set up by Doak Walker's fumble on Detroit's 36 yard line, in the first period. Fullback Joe Perry hit the end zone from the nine after half- back J. R. Boone ran for 13 yards and snagged a 14-yard pass from Albert. It was Boone again in the third period who took Albert's 32-yard pass and raced 15 more yards for the second San Fran- cisco marker. Ex-Minnesota kicker Gordon Soltau added a field goal in the final stanza besides his two successful con- versions. The Lions ground attack was held to a near standstill and their passes failed to produce. Doak A PASS from Gomberg's Jim Boetcher to Jim McClurg evened the score and sent the contest into overtime. It was here that an aerial from Dale Ewart to Jim Hatton gave the winning margin to Michigan. 1 In other I-M action, Allen- Rumsey dropped Anderson 13-0, Hinsdale beat Scott 12-0, Strauss edged Cooley 13-6, and Hayden decisioned Williams 14-2.
