By DAVE RORABACHER
With John Hess at the Helm, Nu
Sigma Nu ran over Alpha Rho
Chi to the tune of 24-0 in a pro
fraternity football engagement
yesterday afternoon.
r Hess not only did all the pass-
ing for the winners but also inter-
cepted an Alpha Rho pass and
ran it back forha touchdown. His
pass play to teammate Harry Ev-
ans covered nearly the entire
length of the field and furnished
another six points. Tad Stanford
and Chris Christensen also scored
for the Medicine men to round out
the total.
Barristers Win Easily
The Law Club, with Dick Elliott
starring, downed Alpha Kappa
Psi, 14-0. Elliott made the first
marker on a run around end and
scored the second on a long pass
play. Wendell Smith did a fine
job of snaring both extra points

which proved to be more than any
of the other teams could garner.
Alpha Kappa Psi threatened sev-
eral times during the encounter
but was unable to make the threat
good.
Phi Alpha Delta triumphed over
Psi Ome'ga as Ted Swift figured
in both touchdowns. Swift scored
first on a conventional run around
end; but the second six-pointer
came on a rather unusual play
when Swift lateraled to Tom Fish-
erewho passed to Bill Anhert, who
in turn crossed the goal line.
Tight Contest
Phi Rho Sigma edged Phi Chi,
7-0, in an evenly matched encoun-
ter. The game was broken up in
the final minutes of play when
Dave Dawson intercepted one of
ace Phi Chi passer Bill Lukash's
throws and galloped for the touch-
down.
Delta Sigma Pi failed to appear
and so forfeited to Phi Delta Phi.

READY FOR HAWKEYES?
Maddoek, Hill Pace Pigskin Practice

By DON LINDMAN

The booming punts of second-
string quarterback Jim Maddock
and the stepped-up use of Dave
Hill at fullback vied with an in-
jured Art Walker to produce most
of the comment at the final full
scale workout of the Michigan grid
squad yesterday in preparation for
its Big Ten opener against Iowa.
Walker, hampered most of last
season by a bad knee, came up

with a leg injury again yesterday.
Although he did only limited work
in the final practice session, the
203-pound tackle is expected to
be in good shape for Saturday's'
tilt,
With Lou -Baldacci definitely
unavailable for the Hawkeye con-
test, Hill has been groomed for
the fullback post during the past'
week. Making a good showing both
offensively and defensively, the

Korean War veteran has been
pressing Fred Baer for the start-
ing slot against Iowa.
Hill alternated with Baer at
fullback against Army, and the
Ypsilanti junior showed up well
as a blocker and linebacker. Inel-
igible last season due to the ruling
requiring one-year residence, the
hard-driving 6-0 fullback has lived
up to expectations in action this
year.
Maddock's Punting Improves
Looking increasingly good both
in practice and under actual game
conditions, Maddock unloosed sev-
eral soaring kicks carrying 40 and
45 yards to stand out in the punt-
ing drills.
The Oak Park, Ill., sophomore
has seen considerable action in
the two Wolverine games to date
and may challenge starting quar-
terback Duncan McDonald on the
strength of his defensive work and
his excellent passing ability. Mad-
dock has tossed only five passes
during the season, but three of
them were completed for a very
creditable 75-yard total.
The Wolverines also concentrat-
ed on passing drills in hopes of
finding some way to form an of-
fense against the powerful Iowa
line, led by Calvin Jones and Rod-
ger Swedberg. With McDonald and
Maddock often receiving scant
protection against the hard-charg-
ing Cadet forward wall last week,
Line Coach Jack Blott put the
Michigan linemen through an ex-
tensive pass protection workout
in hopes of augmenting the effec-
tiveness of the Wolverine passers.

since October of 1935. The situ-
ation was desparate. Today, the
Michigan football camp faces a
similar situation, though admit-
tedly not as drastic.
A rugged Iowa team moves into
the Stadium on Saturday after-
noon to face a Michigan squad
that must play without its top two
backs, a Michigan team that was
thoroughly routed by Army last
week, 26-7.
Michigan Pulls Upset
The Wolverines of '37 did not
have the potential that the '54
team appears to have, but it play-
ed its heart out that day in Iowa
City to stem the tide of defeat,
and beat Iowa and Kinnick, 7-6,
in one Qf the most exciting games
of the Michigan-Iowa series.
The Maize and Blue made its
move late in the first quarter, and
by the time the second period be-
gan, the Wolverines were encamp-
ed just inside Iowa territory.
Wolverine backs Fred Trosko
and Tex Stanton pushed the ball
down to the Hawkeye 28, and
then Trosko faded back and' hit
halfback Bill Bradley with a per-
fect pass on the Iowa 8. Trosko
then bulled to the 3, and Stanton
ripped over for the score. Trosko
converted, and at the half, Michi-
gan led, 7-0.
Kinnick Stars
Iowa came back with a ven-
geance. Kinnick, destined to make
All-American two years later took
a third quarter punt, and start-
ing on his own 26 yard line, weav-
ed his way downfield 74 yards be-
hind a wall of blockers, and scored.
The crowd hushed as Jack Eicher-
ly dropped back to kick the extra
point. The ball was snapped, and aI
torrent of blue rushed through the
Iowa line. Big Bill Smith lunged
for the ball, batted it down, and
the Wolverines had beaten Iowa,
7-6.
The 10 game conference loss
skein was snapped. A brighter day
was just around the corner. Fritz
Crisler arrived on the scene, and
the glory days of Harmon, Eva-
shevski, Westfall and company
opened a new era of Michigan
football.
