TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1953 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE SEVEN I I Rams Trounce Lions, 37-24 For Western Division Lead Gom berg, Lloyd Reach I-MFinals By WARREN WERTHEIMElR The Los Angeles Rams exploded for three touchdowns in the third period and beat the Detroit Lions, 37-24, to take over first place in the National Football League's Western Conference. Playing before 93,751 fans, the largest crowd ever to see a regular season pro game, the Rams took the second half kickoff on the short end of a 17-9 score and three plays later had a touchdown. Skeet Quinlan, who had dashed five yards, for the winners' first score, raced 74 yards around right end to cut the Lions lead to one point. * * * MIDWAY in the quarter, the coast team took the lead for the first time as Don Paul intercept- ed a pass and ran it back 15 yards before lateraling to Woodley Lew- is who covered the remaining 45 yards to the goal line. A few minutes later, Jack Dwyer ran 31 yards with a pil- fered toss to open up a 13 point gap for the Rams and they sew- ed It up in the last quarter when Norm Van Brocklin threw to Vi- tamin Smith for 54 yards and a touchdown. The Lions jumped off to a 10-0 lead in the opening quarter on the strength of a 38-yard field goal by Doak Walker and a 92-yard run by Jack Christiansen after he picked off a Ram pass. * * * THEY SCORED again in the second quarter on a three yard pass from Bobby Layne to Leon Hart after Jug Girard had re- turned a kick-off 85 yards. The Cleveland Browns re- mained undefeated as they de- feated the Washington Redskins, 27-3. Otto Graham, besides complet- ing 14 of 22 pass attempts, scored two of the winners' touchdowns, both on short plunges. * * * The New York Giants scored on a 74-yard pass play with sev- en seconds left to play in the Student Supplies TYPEWRITERS REPAIRED ' ..

In his second year at the Michi- gan helm, Perigo has been drill- ing a small band of hopefuls now in their fifth week of practice at Yost Field House. * * * SURROUNDING a corps of six returning lettermen are seven oth- er varsity aspirants, including four promising sophomores, plus several others who are now out for football and won't see any ac- tion on the hardwood for several weeks. Only casualties from last year's squad are former captain Doug Lawrence, who graduated in June, and forward Ralph Kauff- man, now enrolled at Western Michigan. The current edition of Wolver- ine basketball had one big jump on its predecessor before practice ever started-every man on the squad has a season of the Perigo fast-break under his belt. WHEN the sophomore mentor took over last year he acquired a team which had known nothing but the slow, set type of game so strongly advocated by former coach Ernie McCoy. The Wolverines missed per- fection under the new system by a long shot, but showed occa- sional flashes of brilliance as on the night they meshed 99 points against Purdue to set a new Yost Field House record. it f An invitation to discuss your future .. in a successfrl, century-old organization. looking ahead to further development and Progress.

Headlining the returnies from last year's cast is center Paul Groffsky, Michigan's leading point- getter who was consequently vot- ed the team's most valuable player. As a sophomore the 6-4 Grofisky pumped in 301 counters in 22 contests for a 13.7 average. * * * SUCCEEDING Lawrence as Cap- tain is senior Ray Pavichevich, a 5-11 ball of fire who has seen ac- tion at both guard and forward in his two years of varsity play. A couple of other men on whom Perigo will rely heav- ily are guard Don Eaddy and forward John Codwell, both of whom finished close behind Groffsky in the 1952-53 scoring derby. Eaddy, although only a junior, has two years of varsity experience behind him, having gotten in under the short-lived freshman eligibility rule of 1951- 52. Codwell, a senior, improved tre- mendously last year in his first full season of varsity ball. LANKY MILT MEAD, a Wolver- ine mainstay for two years, anoth- er forward, Bruce Allen, who saw limited 'acon last season, and gridder Bob Topp round out the list of returning lettermen. A pair of highly touted guards up from the freshman ranks, Jim Barron and Tom Jorgenson, promise to not only add depth to the backcourt position but give someone a fight for the job. Sophomore Tom Singer and juniors Jim Dutcher and Junior Stielstra add more depth to the guard slots, while sophomore Jay Vawter and junior Harvey Wil- liams,bboth of whom stand 6-8, have been getting a lot of work at center. . * * * ' PERIGO has been putting in a great deal of time with Williams, who is hampered considerably by inexperience. The lanky pivot- man saw action in only one game last year, after having played bas- ketball but a single year in high. school. Mead has been practicing with a plastic mask on his face to pro- tect a nose broken in a touch foot- ball game the first week of school, while Allen reinjured a previously broken nose last week in practice when he came into too close con- tact with Groffsky's elbow.

Gomberg was forced into staging a second half comeback in order to defeat Allen-Rumsey House 12-6 in a first place dorm league playoff contest. The first half looked as if it might wind up without a score when the Rusey men caught fire. Sparked by the passing of Jack De Cue, Rumsey marched inside the Gomberg 20, where they earn- ed a vital first down. Quarterback DeCue passed to Bob Hanacheck for a tally, and the underdogs had a 6-0 lead at the game's mid- point. * * * WITH approximately five min- utes to left to play Gomber finally caught fire. and penetrated the stout Rumsey resistence. Two Lou Megyesi aerials found Bill Land unguarded in the end zone, and Gomberg crowded together the two touch- downs that spelled victory and the finals. Lloyd House of West Quad earn- ed the other postition in the first place finals, by shutting out Hu- ber, 12-0. * * * * LLOYD'S blocking was exceed- ingly sharp, as they registered an impressive triumph. It was Jack Watson who engineered a pair, of successful attacks on the Huber goal, that cemented Lloyd's con- quest. In the first half Al Martin snared a Watson heave that ac- counted for the game's first score. Late in the final half Dick Tasker picked another Watson toss out of the darkness, and stumbled into paydirt with the last Lloyd touchdown. The win put Anderson in the fourth place finals. John Hees passed to Hal Berrit for a touchdown as Van Tyne earned a fifth place playoff spot with a 7-0 win over Kelsy. Scott House bowed to Hayden 8-0 in a fourth place semi final clash. Bob Luecke returned a punt through the entire Scott team for Hayden's lone touchdown. In a third place contest Winchell House trounced Hinsdale 19-6, and Greene edged Williams, 18-14, in a fifth place game. By DICK BUCK Michigan has only three games left on its nine game grid sched- ule-Illinois, MSC, Ohio State- but these three clashes could well prove to be the roughest of the campaign. Illinois, the Wolverines' next op- ponent, is currently on top of the Big Ten heap with a 3-0 record in Conference play. The Illini are unbeaten in six games but tied with Nebraska in their season opener. * * * THE PACESETTERS remained on top Saturday by running over Purdue, 21-0, with sophomores Mickey Bates and J. C. Caroline again leading the attack. Bates careened 35-yards for Illinois' first touchdown while Caroline, although not scoring, picked up 157 yards on the ground to bring his season's to- tal to 891 yards, a new record for theschool. TONY BRANOFF ... "M" player of week to their 24-14 conquest over the Pennsylvanians. * * * IN ADDITION the 180-pound right halfback pulled in two passes good for 29 yards. Although his rushing total, achieved in 17 tries, gave him a respectable 4.3 yards-per-try average for the afternoon, it was his passing which turned his usual excellent performance into a starring one. His first pass, coming with the; Maize-and-Blue trailing 14-12 in the third period, was a 30-yard heave to left end Bob Topp who speared the ball out of the air and raced for a touchdown to put the Wolverines back ino the lead to: stay. in slaughtering the hapless West- erners. Big gun in the State attack Jimmy Ellis racked up two TDs, one a brilliant 76-yard punt re- turn and the other a one-yard plunge to cap off a 65-yard drive. The victory gave the Spartans a 3-1 record in Conference com- petition, good for a second place tie weith the reorganized but ex- plosive Buckeyes. AS WITH ILLINOIS, newcom- ers to the limelight have made a big difference for Ohio State. Looking for an offensive threat after John Borton was declared out of action, OSU depended upon sophomore back Howard Cassady and Bobby Watkins to supply them with a successful machine. The two came through again this week as the Bucks rode Northwestern into the sod by a 27-13 margin. 1" 9 i 1 7 ,l The other two TDs came on Connie Barber was the big gun quarterback Ely Falkenstein's one- Cassady figured in three touch- in Strauss House's lineup as he yard sneak, ending a 33-yard drive, downs as he galloped 67 yards for paced his team to a 20-0 drubbing and substitute Em Lindbeck's two- one marker, three yards for an- of Cooley in a second place semi- yard plunge.
