Soccer Champions
Nipped by Michigan
Boilermakers Defeated on Tuttle& s
First-Half Score; Defense Shined

-.v..

DURING THE past two weeks we have taken long looks at two of
the best running halfbacks in the nation-Illinois' J. C. Caroline
and LeRoy Bolden of the Michigan State Spartans.
Down in Champaign they say that Caroline is tops. In East
Lansing the pint-sized dynamo Bolden is the pride of the football
faithful. On the basis of what we have seen in games and movies
this season we will have to stick with Caroline as being a superior
ball carrier.
" We do not think that Caroline has as strong a team in front
of him as does Bolden. Illinois, although it did not show them in
the Michigan game, has several glaring defensive weaknesses,
r
whereas the Spartans of Biggie Munn are a squad possessed of
tremendous all-round potential.
Throughout the season, Illinois' greatest offensive attribute, its
light, mobile linemen, has been its greatest defensive liability. Wis-
consin, with a bigger line, simply wore down the Illini forwards to
the tune of three last quarter touchdowns and a 34-7 triumph.
It is a difficult thing to judge players without taking their sup-
porting casts into consideration, but if whe had to have one of these
two great halfbacks, it would have to be Bolden on the basis of his
superior blocking and defensive ability.
We are going to see another pretty fair ball carrier in the
person of -Ohio State's pile-driving Bobby Watkins this Satur-
day.
If the Michigan defense plays against Ohio State as it played
against the Spartans, then Watkins and company will be in for a
very tough afternoon.
* * * *
W'E THOUGHT Michigan's line was terrific on Saturday. The de-
fensive play of Jim Balog at right tackle was his best of the
season. Guard Dick Beison, in addition to an excellent game in the
line, recovered Jim Ellis' fourth quarter fumble to set up the var-
sity's touchdown. We were also cheered by the return to the lineup
of Michigan's great captain Dick O'Shaughnessy. The big Irishman
from Seaford, New York played exceptionally well at linebacker, a
position which it might be said is quite new to him.
For the Spartans all we saw was a big number 80 continually
charging into the Michigan backfield. Don Dohoney, a local Ann
Arbor boy, was a thorn in Michigan's side all afternoon. We thought
he was the outstanding Spartan on the field, but much of his great
play was missed by the viewers who were watching his more spec-
tacular team mates. Such is always the lot of the lineman.
After the game we heard numerous ,protests from students
of both schools as to why the respective quarterbacks called cer-
tain plays. All of us indulge in that ancient right of football fans-
grandstand quarterbacking-that is part of the game and makes
it the great autumnal passtime, but we should always remember
that there are many considerations in the calling of a play which
are known only to the quarterback, the coach and those immed-
lately connected with the team.
Sometimes mistakes are made. Why shouldn't there be mis-
takes. It is still a college game played by college boys, and if mis-
takes are made, then they should be accepted as part of the game
and taken accordingly in stride. It is for this reason that we should
make it our business to use a little insight before condemning players
for their performance on the field.
Fritz Crisler once said that any play is a touchdown play if
every man follows his assignment perfectly. We think there is a
great deal of wisdom in that statement, wisdom that ,should guide
our thinking on Saturday afternoons.

Michigan's scrappy Wolverine
Soccer Club pulled a major upset
Saturday as it downed Purdue's
Midwest Collegiate Soccer League
champions, 1-0, at Lafayette.
The Wolverine tally came mid-
way in the first quarter, as Hank
Reichart passed to Kuo-Cheiw-
Quan, who drove in and dropped
a beautiful pass to Tom. Tuttle.
Tuttle scored from fifteen feet
out, as he drove a shot into the
upper left hand corner of the goal,
past the clutching hands of Pur-
due's All-American goalie, Leon
Hannah.
PURDUE, undefeated in six
games up to Saturday, rushed the
Michigan net. constantly during
the third and fourth periods, but
the outstanding play of Wolver-
ine goalie Ken Ross, and defensive
fullbacks Larry Gutman and'Ben
Bonnlander held off the Boiler-
makers.
The Wolverines, who have
now won four games while drop-
ping two and tying one, are ten-
tatively scheduled to face the

University of Chicago here this
Saturday at 11:00 a.m.
Meanwhile, a petition signed by
over 2,000 male students asking
for official varsity status for soc-
cer, is still being considered by the
Board of Managers. If it is ap-
proved by this body, it must then
be submitted to the Board of Con-
trol of Intercollegiate Athletics
for consideration.
* * * .
SEVERAL prominent campus
organizations are backing the club
in its fight for recognition, and
hopes are running high for var-
sity status.
Two of Michigan's players are
being considered for berths on
the All-Midwest honorary team.
They are Reichart, and the
English import, Alan Cassels,
who captains the squad.
Purdue had previously won the
Midwest Collegiate Soccer League
title, by bowling over Indiana,
Ohio State, Wheaton, Earlham,
Indiana Tech, and the University
of Chicago. Michigan does not
participate in this league.

By WARREN WERTHEIMER
With an assist from the Cleve-
land Browns and the Chicago Car-
dinals, the Detroit Lions regained
sole possession of the lead in the
Western Division of the National
Football League by defeating the
Green Bay Packers Sunday, 14-7.
The Lions broke out of a three-
way.tie with the Los Angeles Rams
and the San Francisco Forty-Nin-
ers as the Rams were tied, 24-24
by the Cards who have yet to win
this year and the Forty-Niners
were dumped by the Browns, 23-
21.
THE DETROITERS madeuse of
four pass interceptions, three by
Yale Lary, to hold the Packers
to one score, the lone touchdown
for the losers coming after a 52-
yard pass play from Tobin Rote
to Al Carmichael. Floyd Reid then
tallied from a yard out.
The Lions also had a tough
time offensively due partially to
the fine defensive work of Rog-
er Zatkoff and the Packer line,
but the winners managed to
score twice on passes. Bobby
Layne collaborated with Doak
Walker on an 83-yard scoring
play and later in the contest hit
Leon Hart with a 22-yard pay-
dirt toss.
The Cards, after blowing a 17-
point lead, tied Los Angeles in
the final minute of play. Charley
Trippi led a 73-yard march for
the final score as he completed
eight passes including the pay-
off toss of 18 yards to Don Paul.
* * *
EARLIER the Cards had scor-
ed on a 62-yard pass from Jim

including one for 34 yards and a
score and another for 43 yards
that set Vy a second touchdown.
Lou The Toe' Groza booted three
field goals which proved to be the
difference.
* * *
THE LOSERS scored twice in
the final period as Y. A. Tittle
passed 31 yards for one tally and
ran eight for another, but it wasn't
enough.
A 33-yard touchdown pass
from Jim Finks to Jack Butler
with 41 seconds to play gave
Pittsburgh a 14-10 win over the
New York Giants.
Despite a 104-yard run by Balti-
more's Buddy Young with the
opening kickoff, the Philadelphia
Eagles walloped the Colts, 45-14.
Bobby Thomason threw scoring
aerials of 47, 56, and 24 yards to
spark the Eagles.
The Chicago Bears beat the
Washington Redskins, 27-24, as Ed
Macon starred. The Bear halfback
went 70 yards with a kickoff, had
a 62-yard paydirt run called back
and caught the winning touch-
down pass.
