FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1953 THE MICHIGAN DAILY FAr~ yr by" Paul Greenberg' December Sports Schedule PAVICHEVICH PILOTS HOOPSTERS: Small CaptainLooms Big on 'M' Cage Scene - THE COLISEUM down at the foot of Hill street opens for business tonight as the Michigan hockey team, under the tutelage of Vic Heyliger, opens its 1953-1954 season. The big barn with ice for a floor has been the royal palace of the American collegiate ice sport ever since the National Collegiate Athletic Association started passing out puck crowns six years ago. Since 1948, the Wolverines have been national champs four times and have placed third twice-since 1951, they have won the championship three years running. Despite this heritage of victory, strange rumblings eminating from the Coliseum forshadow a crumbl- ing of the' Michigan ice dynasty this year and gloomy predictions have put the Maize and Blue in the strange role of underdogs for the coming Midwest Collegiate Hockey League season. The loss of three valuable men through graduation and one key operative due to academic difficulties are said to have dealt a crippling blow to Michigan's chances in the coming MCHL race. Minnesota, North Dakota and Colorado College, three loop opponents, all have powerful squads and to most experts they rule as logical choices to force the Wolverines to settle for the fourth rung of the Midwest League's ladder. Somehow all the black forcasts don't convince us. True, Hey- liger's team won't strike the same mortal fear in opponents as it has in years past-but it has plenty of talent and should be strong enough to be right in the thick of the fight for the MCHL honors. Michigan has three lines, three defensemen and two fine goalers in first-stringer Willard Ikola and reserve Bill Lucier. Quantity and Quality .. . HEYLIGER didn't have any more depth last season when he steered the Wolverines to the NCAA championship, but it remains to be seen if this year's quality is as high as last year's. The critical point of Michigan's success in the 1953-1954 campaign lies in two crucial series during the first semester. The Wolverines travel to Grand Forks, North Dakota and Minneapolis to meet two of the ,.strongest MCHL sextets on foreign ice-if they are able to split this quartet of road contests, they would be in good position to make a strong bid in the league race. By garnering one of the top two spots in the MCHL Michigan would assure itself of an invitation to the NCAA tournament at Colorado Springs next March. After mid-year, the Wolverines will be strengthened with the addition of defensemen Neil Buchanan and Reg Shave and forward Terry Sheehan. Buchanan and Sheehan won't reach their first year of eligibility until the second semester and Shave, held out by scho- lastic troubles, will play out the latter part of his senior year. The availability of this trio will help soften the loss of Doug Mullen, at present center of the Wolverine's first line. Mullen, who graduates in February, operates between .wings George Chin and Pat Cooney to form an all-senior line that is expected to be Michigan's chief offensive weapon and is figured to take care of the lions share of the early-season scoring. The second line, composed of veteran Doug Philpott at center with sophs Bill McFarland and Jay Goold at the flanks is one of Michigan's imponderables. Blessed with great potential, but untested under game conditions, its success could well make the difference in the success or failure of the Wolverines offense. The third line comprised of junior Telly Mascarin and first year men Yyves Hebert and Don McArthur could be a valuable asset if it operates effectively to spell the first two units. The eligibility of Buchanan, Shave and Sheehan-counted on heavily to bolster the defense presently comprised of Captain Jim Haas and seniors Lou Paolatto and Bert Dunn-could also operate to strengthen the three lines. A Boost in Store... WITH BUCHANAN AND SHAVE available, Haas and Dunn could be spared for offensive duty, and along with Sheehan they would be able to make up for the loss of Mullen-perhaps in addition making a scoring threat of the third line. The mid-year additions take on all the more importance when the schedule gets hectic in February. In that single month the Wol- verines play 10 of their 16 league games, six in a nine day stretch extending from the fifth through the thirteenth. Four of these con- tests figure to be especially tough, a home series with Colorado College's Bengals and two games at Houghton, Michigan against Michigan Tech. Tech doesn't have the same player depth and talent that Colorado boasts, but the Engineers-coached by ex-Wolverine Al Renfrew-are consistently hard to beat on their home ice. In view of this quirk of the schedule, the added depth will be put to good use right away as the Wolverines attempt to come out of the six games in a challenging position in the loop standings. The four games with McGill and Toronto encompassing this and next weekend will provide a rugged test to show just how good Michigan really is. All of the "paper potential" in the world doesn't make much difference if it can't be brought into play under game conditions. Strong tribute to this was made by the failure of Denver University in last year's league race and Minnesota's crack-up at the 1953 national tourney. Heyliger has long been credited with an ability to get the most out of every player at his command. This may well play a big part should the "prima donnas" at Colorado College and Minnesota revert to form. Mere strength in numbers can't make a team and Michigan might well make up with al-around balance what it lacks in indi- vidual talent. The Wolverines did it last year and the crowds at the NCAA tournament at Colorado Springs will never forget it.

Pavichevich, who already has two years of vwrsity experience under his belt, is just the man that the Wolverines need at the captain post. The squad is com- prised mainly of juniors and sophomores and his steadying in- fluence will be a prime factor when the team is under fire. "PAV," as his teammates call him, is strictly a playmaker and a floor leader. He paces the team and sets up the plays. Last year, to make us a good field general. while feeding his teammates, he The added weight of being captain still managed to score 136 points. seems to have made him an even Ray's favorite shot, when he does better ball player.

I I 12 5 Standing five-eleven, "Pav" is on the small side whencompar- ed to most basketball players of the present day. However, he makes up for his height defici- ency with tremendous drive and fight. The .22-year old senior's scrappy type of play is a valu- able asset to the team. More oft- en than not he will come up with a loose ball in a scramble under the boards and start a successful fast break. Bill Perigo, coach of the Wol- verine quintet, states that, "Ray is a quick thinker and he ought "PAY'S HOME town is East Chi- cago, Indiana, where he attended Roosevelt High School. Here he won four letters in both basketball and baseball. He has continued to play both sports at Michigan, cop- ping two letters in baseball in ad- dition to his basketball numerals. Asked what he thought of the Wolverines chances Pavechevich replied, "We won't exactly be any, world-beaters but the team will be greatly improved over last year. We have a lot more depth at all the positions and the revised schedule should help us (this year the team will have more warmup games before starting Big Ten play)."

I.- Gym Squad Shar ensU For Opener The gymnastics squad made an impressive showing as it ran through its second inter-squad meet yesterday afternoon in prep- aration for the opening meet with Notre Dame, Saturday, December 12, at 3:30 in the Intramural Building. The 'team has improved as a whole over the first inter-squad meet, but much can be done in .the way of perfecting different events. In the side-horse and rings events, Lee Krumbholz took first place. Frank Adams placed firstj in the high bar. Other first-place winners were Harry Luchs in the parallel bar and Bill Winkler on the trampoline. Freshmen Bob Armstrong, Wayne Warren and Nick Weise gave the varsity a battle for first place honors and were impressive in their pre-season warm-ups. Topp.F1ght1 Michigan end Bob Topp re- ceived honorable mention on the 1953 AP All-American foot- ball team announced yesterday. The lanky senior had previous- ly been named on AP's All- Big Ten squad. AP Picks Dohoney, Giel, Lattner asAll-Americans NEW YORK - (P) - Two great Midwestern backs, John Lattner of Notre Dame and Paul Giel of Minnesota, occupy the spotlight on the 1953 Associated Press All- America football team announced yesterday. They are the only repeaters from the 1952 team. Paul Cameron of U.C.L.A. and David Koose Johnson of Rice, round out the first team backfield. THE TEAM was selected on the recommendations of boards of newspaper and radio experts rep- resenting every region of the coun- try. It takes into account all the season's games through Nov. 28. Rounding out the first team are Don Dohoney of Michigan State and Sam Morley of Stan- ford at ends, Stanley Jones of Maryland and Jack Shanafelt of Penn at tackles, J. D. Roberts of Oklhoma and Crawford Mims of Mississippi at guards, and Larry Morris of Georgia Tech at cen- ter. With the change in the ,substi- tution rule, the AP has returned to a single first team instead of of- fensive and defjnsive squads. The development of versatile, 60-minute football players such as were known a decade ago brought much sharper focus on personali- ties in 1953. As a result, the re- doubtable players that made up the first All-America were closely challenged by the 1953 second team, the backfield of which is , _. comprised of Bernie Faloney of Maryland, J. C. Caroline of Illinois, Bob Garrett of Stanford, and Bob- by Cavazos of Texas Tech. The All-America line is big through center but light at the ends. Dohoney at 193 and Morley at 185 are below average in size, but powerful. Dohoney was most spectacular on defense, and in Michigan State's defeat of Min- nesota 21-0 was largely respon- sible for holding Giel to a net of only 23 yards. Morley was at his best'on offense, catching 45 passes for 594 yards and six touchdowns to lead the Pacific Coast Confer- ence. The only colleges to place more than one man on the three teams are Maryland, with Jones on the first and Faloney on the second; Notre Dame with Lattner on the first and Art Hunter at tackle on the second; and Stanford, with Morley on the first, and the other half of a great passing combina- tion, Garrett, on the second.
