)WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1953 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE TYIREE M - SAMIBeats ZBT, 7-6, To Open Fraternity Football Pilams Surprise Betas, 8-0; Delta Tau Delta Stops SAE By PHIL DOUGLIS Sigma Alpha Mu came from be- 3ind yesterday to whip Zeta Beta rau, 7-6, as the fraternity foot- ball season opened at Ferry Field. ZBT took an early 6-0 lead in the first few minutes of play, when Stan Levinson passed to Dick Klein for a touchdown,rbut the Sammies came back strong late in the game as Warren Werthei- mer hit Dick Radway in the end zone with a pass'to knot the score. Wertheimer then proceeded to lob a pass to Tom Kovan for the extra point to give SAM the win. * * * PI LAMBDA PHI upset Beta Theta Pi, 8-0, as Howie Guggen- heim fired a first half touchdown pass to Dick Gilden. Mary Cherin set up the play with a timely in- terception., The Pilams sewed up the con- test in the second hpalf when they scored a safety soon after a 15 yard Beta penalty, which was assessed for illegal use of the. hands. Another fraternity contest saw Delta Tau Delta whip Sigma Al- pha Epsilon, 13-6. The Delts op- ened the scoring when Al Price hit Ed Bassett with a' 20 yard touch- down pass, and increased their advantage to 13 points when Max Daniels skirted his left end for a 40 yard touchdown run. SAE's Jim Henson intercepted a pass too late to halt the victorious Delts, * * * THE DAY'S biggest score was rolled up by Alpha Phi, Alpha as it steamrolled Phi Sigma Delta, 24-13. Led by baseball and basket- ball star Don Eaddy, who tossed three touchdown passes, the Al- pha Phi Alphas were never head- ed. Eaddy pitched two payoff passes to Barney Putnam, and another to basketballer John Codwell. Emile Riley scored the other Alpha Phi Alpha touch- down when he intercepted a pass and ran 40 yards to score. Lambda Chi Alpha also showed that it must be reckoned with this season, as it blasted Zeta Psi, 19- 7. Lambda Chi's Hal Kruger tossed twice to Don Scotilla and once to Dick Good for touchdowns. CHI PHI topped Delta Kappa Epsilon, 6-0, as Lee Krumbholz tossed a 30-yard pass to Jim Ru- pert, a pass which brought Chi Phi to the Deke five yard line. On the next play, Krumbholz faded back and hit Jim Howell in the end zone with a perfect pass to give Chi Phi the game. In a stunning upset, Sigma Phi Epsilon was defeated by Phi Kappa Psi, 7-0. Bill Roeder fir- ed a 15 yard touchdown pass to Dick Heasley to spell doom for the Sig Eps. Alpha Sigma Phi proved too much for the men of Triangle, as it pulled out a 12-0 victory. Tom- my Ehman intercepted a Triangle pass and ran it back 35 yards to score, and shortly thereafter toss- ed a 40 yard touchdown pass to Bill Eckerman for the Alpha Sig's second score. In a real thriller, Alpha Delta Phi defeated Theta Xi, 6-0, on the last play of the game. With but seconds to go, "Smoke" Ash- enbrenner took a five yard pass from Rog Mulier to score the clincher. In another thriller, Sigma Nu downed Psi Upsilon, 7-0, in an overtime period. Jules Hanslovsky caught a 50 yard pass from Jim McGarvey to win the game. In other games, Kappa Sigma won a low' scoring contest from Phi Sigma Kappa, 2-0, when Phi S i g m a K a p p a intentionally grounded the ball in their own end zone late in the game, and Alpha Tau Omega gained an easy forfeit win over Trigon. Wolverines Open Drills For Tulane Michigan's football squad drank twelve gallons of water yesterday and poured twelve more gallons of sweat into their preparations for the season's second game against Tulane Saturday. Oblivious of their quick rise in the weekly sportswriters' AP and UP polls, the playershwent quiet- ly through another heavy prac- tice much the same as has been happening since the opening of drills. THE EARLY portion of the aft- ernoon was devoted to defensive work by the first stringers against Tulane's offensive plays, both passing and running. The Green Wave develops these plays from the T-formation. The Wolverines spent the re- mainder of the day running of- fensive maneuvers through the dummies, using as big a variety of backfield combinations as was seen in Saturday's slaughter of the Huskies. It is rumored that the coaches are avoiding scrimmaging in the hope of forestalling injury to key players. Right now the Maize and Blue is reportedly in top physical shape, having no men out with ser- ious injuries. Little immediate action was taken to improve on the Wol- verines' poor showing in the con- versions column against Wash- ington-they made only two good in eight attempts-but players engaged in this pastime were requested to don uniforms earlier in the future to allow more time for booting practice. Oosterbaan topped off yester- day's drill with the varsity en- gaging in wind sprints. During the latter part of practice, varsity fourth string players faced the freshman team opposition in a short scrimmage.

Denton True Cy Young, who won two games for the Red Sox from Pittsburgh, will throw out the first ball at Wednesday's open- ing game in Yankee Stadium. Thursday the same chore will be performed by Bill Dinneen, a three-game winner. Each pitcher lost once back in the days when a team carried only three pitchers. Young is a mem- ber of baseball's Hall of Fame. Dinneen later achieved consider- able fame as an American League umpire. * * * By winning the opening game, Yankee Allie Reynolds can tie the record of seven World Series pitching victories, set by an- other Yankee, Red Ruffing. * *4 * As usual, Maj. Francis W. Suth- erland's 7th Regiment band, which has played at every World Series in Yankee Stadium, is slated to provide the early musical enter- tainment with Guy Lombardo's band taking over later for the sixth straight stadium series. A color guard of U.S. Marines will hoist the flag before the game, but the Yankees' 1952 championship pennant won't go up the flagpole with the Stars and Stripes. It will be hung on the grandstand with the other Yankee flags. Joe DiMaggio and Lefty Gomez, former Yankee roommates, ex- changed quips while watching the Dodgers and Yankees work out Tuesday. Birdie Tebbetts To Manage Reds NEW YORK - P) - George Birdie Tebbetts Tuesday was nam- ed manager of the Cincinnati Red- legs for 1954 and 1955, succeeding the recently fired Rogers Hornsby. Tebbets, veterans major league catcher, managed Indianapolis of the American Association this sea- son. He finished fourth with the Cleveland farm club. * * * GABE PAUL, general manager of the Cincinnati club, did not an- nounce any salary terms. Paul said he had considered Tebbetts for some time but did not discuss the matter with him until Tuesday. The Redlegs finished sixth in the National League under Hornsby, who was fired seven days before the season ended. Veeek Sells; Browns Shift To Baltimore' NEW YORK-()-- By a unani- mous vote of 8-0 at a meeting of the league owners-the third in three days-the St. Louis Browns were moved to Baltimore, a city which bowed out of the American League just 50 years ago. Baltimore, the team that spawn- ed Babe Ruth, was awarded the St. Louis American League fran- chise yesterday and the mayor of tht Maryland city immediately predicted a pennant for next year. year. * -* * BILL VEECK, the colorful owner of the Browns who has been trying to get out of St. Louis for more than a year, sold his 79 per cent controlling interest to a group headed by attorney Clarence Miles for $2,475,000, including all mi- nor league properties. As a result of the transfer, the way also was paved for the league to expand to 10 clubs, including the two Pacific Coast cities of Los Angeles and San Francisco=. Del Webb, co-owner of the New York Yankees, who led the fight to award the Brownie franchise to Los Angeles, admitted that he voted for Baltimore "because I did not want any dissension in the league." In fact, he said, he made the Baltimore motion. BUT, HE added, "I made this motion with the provision that the American League expand into a 10-club league to include the two Pacific Coast cities-Los Angeles and San Francisco." Webb added that his efforts to buy the Browns for Los An- geles on behalf of unnamed in- terests there fell through be- cause "they would not produce the money they were talking about." The Los Angeles syndi- cate had said it would produce six million dollars in 10 days if it got the franchise. Mayor Thomas D'Alesandro of Baltimore probably was the hap- piest man in New York. He spear- headedthe two-year fight to bring the team to his city. WHILE TALKING to newsmen outside the meeting rom, D'Ales- andro caught sight of Webb, and with a big grin, addressed the Yank bigwig: "Mr. Webb, I prom- ise you when the Yankees come to Baltimore we'll have a record crowd out to see them.'But I must warn you that we're out to break your monopoly on winning pen- nants. We're going to be in the world series in 1954." It was a heartbreaking battle D'Alesandro waged. Last spring, he tlought the Browns would wind up in Baltimore, but the owners made them stay in St. Louis. Scouts Pack Press Box To Watch Michigan Play By IVAN N. KAYE Daily Sports Editor One of the things that caught our attention at the game last Saturday afternoon was the great number of football scouts in the Michigan Stadium press box. Washington was being scouted by her next eight opponents, and Michigan was performing under the watchful eyes of men from the remaining schools on the schedule. * * * THE TULANE scout was kept busy most of the afternoon re- cording the scoring plays which the varsity used to destroy W&sh- ington. When the Georgia-Tulane score was announced, he showed not the least sign of emotion, even though his team had dropped a 16-14 heartbreaker. His job was scouting Michigan, and there was no time for daydreaming about the Greenies' game in Athens. Scouting the Wolverines for the University of Iowa was form- er Michigan football captain Archie Kodros. He was of the opinion that Michigan had been vastly under-rated in the pre- season forecasts. He too was busy taking down the plays which were being used with such great effectiveness by the victors. When the score came from Iowa City, however he brightened and told us that Forest Evashevski wanted that ball game more than all the others put together. Kodros said that he would be watching the Wolverines again this Saturday when they went against Tulane. He told of an almost all-Michigan coaching staff SPORTS WARREN WERTHEIMER Night Editor at the University of Iowa. Besides himself and head coach Evashev- ski, there are Chalmers "Bump" Elliot, ball carrying star of the 1947 team, and Bob Flora, wio was an end on Fritz Crisler's 1942 squad. * * * EVASHEVSKI and Michigan State's Biggie Munn managed a handshake at the center of the field following the hard-fought game at Iowa Stadium last Sat- urday. It was the only time dur- ing the Spartans' two days in Iowa City that the two men ex- changed words. There was no doubt in anyone's mind that the Hawkeyes were going all out to win the big one against theheavily favored Michigan State club. Iowa gave the Spartans an extremely good ball game, and while we take into consideration the fact that Evashevski had his team sky high for the game, it nevertheless remains common knowledge that Iowa is not one of the better Western Confer- ence teams. If Michigan State had to battle into the closing' minutes before putting the game away against a foe that ranks at the bottom of the conference, then we cannot help but wonder what will befall the East Lansing team when it goes against Minnesota, Ohio State and Michigan. Michigan State had major trou- ble beating one of the lowest rank- ed teams in the Big Ten; Michigan on the other hand rolled over a team that was figured to be fourth in the Pacific Coast Conference, but when the Associated Press poll was made public, the Spartans were rated ahead of the Wolver- ines. This only shows that the ma- jority of those voting have been influenced by last year's results and this year's press notices, two factors which should never be con- sidered when giving an appraisal of the nation's football teams, MINNEAPOLIS - (P) - Coach Wes Fesler shook his head and mused sadly: "The reports we're getting on Michigan State's speed are almost unbelievable." The word "speed' arouses an im- mediate and doleful reaction whenever it's mentioned around the Minnesota coach. Fesler pin- points the lack of tea mfleetness as the Gophers' biggest, and prob- ably decisive drawback. Against Michigan State's hard- running Spartans Saturday, Fesler is afraid it will be fatal. "On pa- per," the Minnesota head man says, we don't figure to have a chance against them.' - EAST LANSING, Mich. - (R) -Michigan State will have to play better ball than it did against Iowa to beat Minnesota. next Saturday. That's the warning from WELCOME MICHIGAN MEN!! collegiate cuts a specialty 9 EXPERT BARBERS Service to Please The Dascola Barbers near Michigan Theatre MSC's end coach, Earle Ed- wards, back from a scouting trip where he saw Southern Califor- nia beat Minnesota ,17-7. "The breaks went against Minnesota," he said. Fumbles and off-side penalties hurt them, but they still looked good. 'WVe're going to have a, real rough game." * s * BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - P) -- Indiana University ran through a heavy defensive drill in prepara- tion for a date with powerful Southern California Friday night at Los Angeles. Coach Bernie C.rimmins said sophoromore end Pat Fellinger would start in place of John Zuger in the only anticipated lineup change. Zuger was injured last Saturday in the Ohio State game. LAFAYETTE, Ind.-(P)-Pur- due's footballers got a heavy workout on punt and pass pro- tection in preparation for Notre Dame's visit here Saturday. John Sevanich and Rex Brock got in most of the kicks as Coach Stu Holcomb sought to avoid a repetition of last Saturday's blocked punt that led to a 14-7 loss to Missouri. SOUTH BEND, Ind. - (R) - Notre Dame opened serious prep- arations for Saturday's game at Purdue with a line scrimmage. All-America halfback Johnny Lattner was unable to participate. He re-injured an ankle in the Oklahoma contest after playing 50 minutes. Coach Frank Leahy said Lattner may not be able to take part in contact work all week. The Irish squad, otherwise, was in fair shape. * * * EVANSTON, Ill. -(')-North- western University freshmen scrimmaged against the varsity for the first time this year. They ran Army plays against the var- sity defense with little success; * * * IOWA CITY, Iowa-(A)-Coach Forest Evashevski doctored up the University of Iowa's pass defense in an hour-long football practice scrimmage.
